"Ye Chen, congratulations!"
The speaker was a beautiful middle-aged woman. Her temperament was ethereal and elegant, and her aura was powerful, far surpassing the other Life and Death Kings who had come with her.
This woman was none other than the leader of Tantai family, Moon Empress.
Before Xuanhou's rise, Moon Empress was the number one female King of the human race. Her strength was unfathomable, and even when standing next to Ye Chen, she was not the slightest bit weaker. She was clearly a peak King, and not an ordinary one at that. Her strength was at least high stage four star, or even peak four star.
"The Moon Empress's presence brings light to the Ye Clan."
Ye Chen walked over to greet her.
Moon Empress sighed, "The world is about to descend into chaos. As the first of the young generation to enter Life and Death Realm, perhaps my Tantai family will have to rely on you in the future."
Moon Empress had come to congratulate Ye Chen for entering Life and Death Realm. Naturally, she wanted to form a good relationship with Ye Chen. Although her family already had a genius like Dantai Mingyue, there was still a gap between Dantai Mingyue and Ye Chen. Dantai Mingyue could make the Tantai family even more glorious, but the premise was that they could survive this great calamity.
"Moon Empress must be joking."
As he spoke, Ye Chen led the Moon Empress and the others into the luxurious courtyard.
Besides the Kings of the sects, there were also some solitary Kings. Among these Kings, Ye Chen had heard of most of them, but there was still a small portion that Ye Chen had never seen or heard of. As the saying goes, those who came were guests. Although Ye Chen didn't know them, he didn't want to leave them out in the cold. At the very least, these people had brought precious gifts and weren't here to cause trouble.
Inside the luxurious courtyard, the number of Life and Death Kings kept increasing. It was already close to twenty people. Close to twenty Life and Death Kings in the same courtyard was a rare thing. However, because of Ye Chen's presence, they all came and chatted happily.
However, Ye Chen could tell that even among Life and Death Kings, there was a difference in status.
Normally, low-level Kings would drink with low-level Kings, mid-level Kings would drink with mid-level Kings, and high-level Kings would drink with high-level Kings. There were three peak-level Kings: Moon Empress, Dugu Family's Patriarch, and Bai Family's Patriarch. These three naturally became the center of the crowd.
…
All the Life and Death Kings who could come had come, and those who didn't would not come next year. However, everyone knew that there was one more person who would come. If she didn't come, the whole banquet would be overshadowed.
Finally, a voice sounded.
"The leader of the Tianwu Region's Xuan Sect has arrived."
It's here. Everyone held their breaths and looked out of the hall.
Xuanhou, who was dressed in white and had long black hair like a waterfall, walked over with Yan Fengfeng, who was dressed in blue and had elegant facial features.
"Senior Yan!"
Ye Chen welcomed him with a smile.
Yan Fengfeng chuckled, "Ye Chen, my master and I have come so late to borrow top rank spirit veins for you. We have brought nine top rank spirit veins in total!"
"Nine top rank spirit veins?"
Ye Chen was surprised and touched at the same time.
Top rank spirit veins were not cabbages, and were usually in the hands of rank 5 martial institutions. But, rank 5 martial institutions also needed top rank spirit veins for great formations, and the extra ones would have to be provided for their disciples to train. Therefore, it would be hard for them to have extra. Therefore, those king level martial institutions had already shown their sincerity by giving out one top rank spirit vein. Since the Black Thunder King had some conflicts with Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng, he had paid a lot to give them one more.
He had never expected that Xuanhou would give out nine at once, and even go around to borrow them.
"Thank you, senior Yan, for such a big gift."
Ye Chen said gratefully.
"They are just some external things. Don't think too much of them." Xuanhou had noticed the Moon Queen in the luxurious yard, so she said to Ye Chen, "I will go and meet up with the Moon Queen. You go on with your business."
Ye Chen was indeed very busy. This banquet was held for him, so he had to show up in person. Otherwise, why would people come and congratulate him? Why would they give him so many valuable treasures? It was all just to see him in person. Normally, most of the martial geniuses would hold a banquet when they reached the Life and Death Realm. The first reason was to see who would be on their side, and the second was to show off their generosity.
After being busy for a long time, Ye Chen finally had the chance to go to the luxurious yard and meet up with the Life and Death Realm warriors.
"Little brother Ye, we have been waiting for you."
Sun Tai and the two early rank beast kings were having a great time drinking. Seeing Ye Chen walking over, they called out.
Ye Chen walked over.
"Ye Chen, I am Pangolin King, and this is my friend Hummingbird King!" Of the two Daemon Monarchs drinking with Sun Tai, one was a pangolin and the other was a hummingbird. The Pangolin Monarch was short, but he wasn't thin at all. He had a wide back, while the Hummingbird Monarch was an ordinary looking woman with an exquisite figure.
"Sorry for the poor reception. I hope you two don't mind."
Ye Chen cupped his fists and said apologetically.
"Not at all! Being able to meet one of the top geniuses from the ancient times until now, I, Hummingbird King, am already very satisfied. "Hummingbird King flattered.
After exchanging some pleasantries with each of the Life and Death Kings, Ye Chen arrived at the central circle, where all the peak Kings were present.
Xuanhou, Moon Queen, Dugu family leader, and Bai family leader were present.
The others would at most say a few words, not daring to sit together with them.
"Sister Yan, your insight is much better than mine. How come I didn't notice such a genius with potential back then?" Seeing Ye Chen, Moon Queen teased Xuanhou and Yan Qingxuan.
Yan Qingxuan smiled, "Your family already has a genius. If you place your attention on other geniuses, you won't look greedy."
"Hehe, why would geniuses be afraid of having too many?"
Moon Queen would be lying if she said she didn't regret it. Sometimes, she would think how great it would be if the little girl Mingyue and Ye Chen could be together.
Ye Chen poured wine and fruits for the four, then raised his cup and said, "Thank you all for coming. Ye Chen is honored. I hope we can get along well in the future, and no unpleasant things will happen."
"Definitely!"
The four stood up and raised their cups.
…
It was late at night, and the guests had already left.
On the roof of the main palace, a bright moon was shining in the sky, and two figures were standing side by side.
"This banquet has created a lot of momentum for you. It's easy to see that Tantai family, Dugu family, and Bai family are all willing to get close to you. With the support of the three families, you will truly have the right to speak in Elysium. Even a titled monarch will not provoke you."
White clothes fluttering in the wind, Xuanhou raised her head to look at the bright moon and said.
Ye Chen crossed his hands behind his back and said, "Actually, what they care about is my strength. Since I have strength, they naturally don't want to offend me. If I can't break through for a long time, who knows what they will think."
"That's natural. No matter what beautiful words are used to describe it, the essence of this world is the survival of the fittest. Outside of Elysium, it's still the same."
"Therefore, you can't stop right now until you reach the peak."
Xuanhou couldn't see through Ye Chen at all. Ye Chen was like a dense fog, becoming more and more unfathomable. It was just like his speed of improvement, which was simply too shocking. In this era, there could be a genius comparable to the ancient era. Who would have thought that? Even Xuanhou didn't expect it.
She was a bit worried about Ye Chen. The more amazing a genius was, the more things they would encounter. Ordinary people lived an ordinary life, but the life of a genius was always full of ups and downs.
The two chatted all the way until dawn. When the sky started to brighten, Xuanhou left with Yan Fengfeng.
Slowly letting out a breath, Ye Chen looked at the horizon of the horizon and grabbed at the air, as if he wanted to grab the sun that had yet to rise.
…
Twenty-four upper grade spirit veins … This was the harvest of a banquet.
Dragon God Celestial Palace only had seventeen upper grade spirit veins. (Note: The previous part was wrong. Ninety-nine Origin Return Great Array required eighty-one spirit veins. Dragon God Celestial Palace had sixty-four mid grade spirit veins and seventeen upper grade spirit veins. F * ck, I didn't learn elementary math well. So many simple mistakes.)
Of course, upper grade spirit veins also had different quality. Most of the upper grade spirit veins Ye Chen had obtained were low grade ones, and a few were mid grade ones. On the other hand, Dragon God Celestial Palace had a super grade upper grade spirit vein and several upper grade ones. Comparing the two, Ye Chen's upper grade spirit veins seemed to be more numerous, but the overall effect was not as good as that of Dragon God Celestial Palace.
Apart from the upper grade spirit veins, Ye Chen had also obtained thirty-two mid grade spirit veins, which were all gifted by sixth grade sects. Not to mention ordinary sixth grade sects, for some powerful sixth grade sects, gifting a mid grade spirit vein was nothing. Even if they didn't have a good relationship with the Ye family, they could at least show their sincerity.
With twenty-four upper grade spirit veins and thirty-two mid grade spirit veins, as well as the three mid grade spirit veins and some lower grade spirit veins of the Ye family, they could barely arrange the Ninety-nine Origin Return Great Array.
However, even though they had enough spirit veins, they still hadn't found a good sect.
The current Ye family was already a fifth grade sect. They couldn't just casually find a place and build some buildings. They had to choose a place with good geomancy and environment.
This aspect was very particular.
After all, humans didn't live in an empty space. They needed to interact with the outside world. In the whole of Elysium, there would always be barren hills and unruly rivers, as well as heavenly paradises. It was just like an ordinary person's body — there were healthy parts and weak parts.
With his soul eyes, it was too easy for Ye Chen to choose a good place.
Three days later, the location of the Ye family's construction had been confirmed.
It would be on the left side of the center of the South Rudra Region. It looked normal, but Ye Chen had seen through the whole South Rudra Region. He could vaguely sense that it would be the perfect place for a dragon to raise its head.
Now that the location had been found, the next step would be to find the mountains.
Xuanhou's Mysterious Martial School didn't have that many mountains. It was Xuanhou who had used her power to move them over from other places. A lot of king warriors would do the same thing.
Of course, it would be the northern region.
Most of the northern region was controlled by the barbarian race, so the mountains there were the most primitive, and most of the wild mountains had been preserved there.
Ye Chen had moved twenty-seven mountains in one go. Besides the outer eighteen mountains, the inner nine mountains each had nine spirit veins buried under them. The one in the center had the best top grade spirit veins. Therefore, after setting up the Ninety-nine Origin Return Great Array, the center mountain would become the place with the densest yuan qi, which would be the core of the Ye family.
