The yellow-robed old freak was dead, but his storage ring was left behind. Only an upper grade or supreme grade storage ring could survive the Eight Trigrams Extermination Sword Art. Of course, the yellow-robed old freak's storage ring would most likely not be an extreme grade storage ring. It should be a top-notch upper grade storage ring.
Reaching out his hand, the storage ring that was flickering with a dim light landed in Ye Chen's hand.
As a titled monarch, the yellow-robed old man's soul wouldn't be any weaker than Ye Chen's. Ye Chen wasn't in a hurry to erase the soul imprint on the storage ring. After putting it away, he turned around and flew toward the South Rudra Region.
In just a short while, the two had already left the South Rudra Region.
"The one killed by Ye Chen seems to be a titled monarch."
"To be able to kill a titled monarch … Could it be that Ye Chen is also a titled monarch?"
As soon as Ye Chen left, two people appeared from the mountains below. They were both Sea of Soul realm masters, but at this moment, their faces were filled with shock as they exchanged glances.
It was their first time seeing titled monarchs fight and fall. It should be known that Life and Death Kings were already high and mighty figures for them, and titled monarchs were legendary figures.
Returning to the South Rudra Region, Ye Chen discovered that the Earth Demon Emperor and Black Fiend Emperor had escaped.
Earth Demon Emperor and Black Fiend Emperor were not weaker than the yellow-robed old man, and they were both at the Blood Rebirth realm. A single Eight Trigrams Extermination Sword Art wouldn't be able to kill them.
In the end, only the four titled monarchs, Demon Flower Emperor, Xuanhou, and Ye Chen were left.
"Sword Domain!"
Ye Chen's Zhen Yuan surged as he released his sword domain, enveloping the old man within.
The old man only felt the pressure around his body increase drastically. Even the posture of his dragon claw was a bit distorted as it smashed a mountain into pieces.
"Damn it!"
The Golden Turtle Grand Ancestor found it extremely difficult to fight against three Conferred Monarchs alone.
If it were only titled monarchs with strong offense, Golden Turtle Old Ancestor wouldn't have the slightest apprehension. His defense made him innately invincible. However, Ye Chen and the other two were too unique. Demonic Flower Emperor's Demonic Flower could absorb his demonic energy and transform it into demonic energy to attack him, causing his demonic energy to constantly decrease. Mysterious Queen's space profound and ice wind profound made his hands and feet tied, unable to display his strength to the limit. Ye Chen's Sword Domain had reached the third layer, which was close to Azure Sky Sword Emperor's. The restriction on him was even greater, and he could only display eighty to ninety percent of his battle strength.
If not for his high defense, he would have been defeated long ago.
"Golden Turtle Patriarch, go back to your Golden Turtle Island!"
The Demon Flower Emperor said bluntly.
"Demon Flower Emperor, Xuanhou, Ye Chen, you three better remember this." The old man transformed back into his human form. His face alternated between green and white as he flew into a rage out of humiliation.
Leaving behind these ruthless words, the old man tore through the air and flew out of Ye Chen's Sword Domain.
"Victory!"
Everyone in the Ye family cheered.
Six Conferred Monarchs had attacked Ye family, but in the end, three died, two escaped, and one escaped. It could be said that after this battle, no one would dare to attack Ye family anymore.
"With Ye Chen, our Ye family has hope for hegemony!"
The elders of Ye family were in high spirits.
How long had it been since Ye Chen became a Life and Death King? In less than half a year, Ye Chen had already become a Conferred Monarch. Not to mention the current era, even in the ancient era, it would be shocking.
Not only the people of Ye family, even the Demon Flower Emperor and Xuanhou were inwardly apprehensive about Ye Chen's progress. Demon Flower Emperor smiled, "Your current strength is not much weaker than mine. Seems like I won't be able to help you much in the future."
Ye Chen's growth was too astonishing. While the Demon Flower Emperor was shocked, he also rejoiced inwardly. Fortunately, he had made the right bet. With Ye Chen's rapid progress, Ye Chen might even be able to turn the tide and become invincible under the heavens. Once the foreign races were cleared out, he might even be able to cultivate for a few more decades. Then, it would not be impossible for him to clear the path to death.
"Ye Chen, it seems like I don't need to worry about you anymore!"
Xuanhou revealed a faint smile. High level five star battle strength was more or less a peak battle strength in Elysium. As for those six star Kings, they were rarely seen.
"Regardless, Ye Chen still has to thank the two seniors for their help." Without the Demon Flower Emperor and Xuanhou, although Ye Chen had the ability to protect himself, Ye family did not. He continued, "Black Water Ancestor is dead, and Blackwater Alliance is like a group of dragons without a leader. How about we divide the Devouring Island equally?"
Hearing Ye Chen mention the Devouring Island, Demon Flower Emperor nodded, "The Devouring Island has great significance. I've been thinking about it for a long time. Therefore, I sent a messenger to probe Black Water Ancestor. I didn't expect you to be one step ahead of me and rob the Zhen Yuan crystal treasury of Blackwater Alliance. Your current cultivation base should be more than a thousand years, right?"
"En."
Ye Chen faintly nodded.
Xuanhou said, "The Devouring Island is too dangerous. If we follow the Blackwater Alliance's path, it will definitely not work."
The warriors inside the island had all been tricked into entering. If they wanted to take over the island, they should not follow the original path. Otherwise, it would easily cause public anger. Who knows, some powerful figures might come out of the island and take revenge on them. They were not afraid, but they still had their own forces.
Ye Chen said, "I already had a plan. After taking over the island, I have decided to open up the secret of the island. After the warriors go in, besides the required amount of Zhen yuan crystals for the Devouring Island's holy spirit, they would only need to pay a small amount of Zhen yuan crystals to us every month. This way, they would be able to leave the island in the shortest amount of time, and not be stuck there for the rest of their lives. Plus, they would be able to earn a lot of money themselves. Although the amount of Zhen yuan crystals each person would provide would be less, as time goes on, more and more people would be able to enter the island, and the total amount would increase as well."
On the Devouring Island, Astral Reaching Realm warriors would need to pay ten thousand Zhen yuan crystals, Seas of Souls Realm warriors fifty thousand, and half step king warriors one hundred thousand. These Zhen yuan crystals were not something that Ye Chen could control, since they were for the holy spirit. If possible, Ye Chen decided to discuss with the holy spirit and reduce the amount. Astral Reaching Realm warriors would have to pay one thousand, Seas of Souls Realm warriors five thousand, and half step king warriors ten thousand.
After all, Astral Reaching Realm warriors would only be able to form fifteen Zhen yuan crystals per month. Ten thousand Zhen yuan crystals would be too much, and it would take fifty to sixty years for them to leave the island. If it were one thousand Zhen yuan crystals, they would be able to leave in five to six years. It would be the same for Seas of Souls Realm warriors and half step king warriors.
"This plan is not bad." The Demon Flower Emperor thought about it and felt that it would work.
Xuanhou also nodded and said, "Since this is the case, we will form an alliance near the island. We will each leave a consciousness body there in case someone tries to mess around."
All three of them were titled monarchs. Even if their consciousness bodies only had thirty percent of their battling power, they would still be equivalent to top king warriors.
"Let's go! Let's go now! It would not be good if the other titled monarchs got there first!"
The Demon Flower Emperor said immediately.
"Alright!"
After giving some instructions to the people of the Ye family, Ye Chen, Demon Flower Emperor, and Xuanhou headed toward the Black Water Alliance.
The Black Water Alliance still did not know about the death of the Black Water ancestor. Seeing the three titled monarchs arrive, they exchanged glances, not knowing what was going on.
Ye Chen said, "The Black Water ancestor is dead. From today onwards, the Devouring Island belongs to our Mysterious Flower Sword Pavilion." The alliance formed by the three was called the Mysterious Flower Sword Pavilion. Mysterious represented Xuanhou, flower represented Demon Flower Emperor, and sword represented Ye Chen. Together, it was easier to call it the Mysterious Flower Sword Pavilion.
"You guys can leave now!"
Xuanhou said.
"What right do you have to occupy the Devouring Island of our Blackwater Alliance? Is there any justice in this world? Even the leader of the Blackwater Alliance was killed by you.
Not many people knew about the Black Water ancestor attacking the Ye family. Only the Yin Sky King knew.
"Hmph." Ye Chen sneered, "The Black Water ancestor, Golden Turtle ancestor, and the yellow-robed old monster attacked the Ye family. They deserved to die. Since you guys did not know, I will let it go. You just need to remember that the Devouring Island belongs to the Mysterious Flower Sword Pavilion. You guys can decide where you want to go."
The three came to inform the Blackwater Alliance. They did not want to kill them or break up the Blackwater Alliance. They just wanted the Devouring Island.
After leaving the Black Water Island, the three headed toward the Devouring Island. They decided to talk to the Saint Spirit of the Devouring Island first.
Devouring Island.
The space rippled, and three figures appeared.
"This is the Devouring Island? Such a strange natural rule." It was the first time for Demon Flower Emperor and Xuanhou to come to the Devouring Island, so they were very surprised.
"This is my second time here." Ye Chen sighed inwardly. When he first came, he was only at Sea of Souls Realm, so he did not have much power to protect himself. The Saint Spirit had the power to kill them. But now, he was talking to the Saint Spirit as an equal. Plus, he realized that this Devouring Island could not stop them from tearing open the space and leaving.
The Saint Spirit appeared. His body was transparent, and he had a pair of wings on his back.
"Saint Spirit, I wonder if you still remember me?"
Ye Chen smiled.
The Saint Spirit studied Ye Chen, "Yes, I remember everyone who has entered the Devouring Island. Last time you came, you were at Sea of Souls Realm. But now, even I cannot see through you."
On the Devouring Island, the Saint Spirit was the ruler. But, he also knew that he could not compete with the three titled monarchs. They could easily wound him badly.
"This time, I am here as a collaborator. As for the Black Water Alliance, it does not exist anymore." Ye Chen looked at Demon Flower Emperor and Xuanhou, "They are also your collaborators."
"Say it. As long as it does not harm my interests, I can accept it."
The Saint Spirit's tone was filled with humanity.
"Very good! This is also a great opportunity for you. I can guess that the reason why you need so many Zhen yuan crystals is probably to recover your own power, or to recover the devouring island's power." Ye Chen told the holy spirit his plan completely.
"I agree."
The Saint Spirit was not stupid. He immediately understood Ye Chen's plan. For him, it was a huge benefit. What the Black Water Alliance did was like killing the goose that laid the golden eggs.
