When Ye Xiwen reappeared, he was in the boundless primordial chaos.
One of his hands was holding a child's hand.
The two children's cultivation wasn't high enough to enter the primordial chaos, so this was their first time in it. They were very excited and interested in everything they saw.
After a while, however, they lost interest. After all, there wasn't much to see in the primordial chaos. Everything was gray and hazy, and they couldn't even tell north, south, east, west, up, down, left, or right.
The two children began to doze off. They were still children, after all, and it was difficult for them to stay focused.
But very soon, an incomparably huge world continent appeared in front of the three of them. From afar, the endless world looked like an extremely dazzling star, which finally piqued the interest of the two little fellows.
"How dare you! Who dares trespass on the Eternal Sacred Land's territory?" A loud voice boomed out from the endless world.
Yes, this endless world was none other than the Eternal Sacred Land.
Several powerful figures flew out of the Eternal Sacred Land. They were about to make a move, but when they saw Ye Xiwen, they were scared out of their wits.
Why is this grim reaper here?!
Many more figures flew out after these powerful figures. Although the Eternal Sacred Land was large, it wasn't particularly large for these celestial venerables and half-step rulers. They immediately knew what was going on.
They'd thought it was some ignorant fool who'd dared to trespass on the Eternal Sacred Land. Even if he was a half-step ruler, he'd still be dead.
Only a ruler would be able to do as they pleased in the Eternal Sacred Land.
After the Eternal Sage Lord, more people had joined the Eternal Sacred Land, but all of them had been rulers without exception.
Although this grim reaper wasn't a ruler, he was no different from one in the eyes of many.
At the very least, rulers might not have killed other rulers, but he'd killed far more than one.
"Is he planning to join the Eternal Sacred Land?" someone couldn't help but exclaim.
They'd seen it all too often. Many sovereigns had taken over the Eternal Sacred Land's territory throughout its history.
Originally, they wouldn't have thought that way. After all, everyone knew that Ye Xiwen was the ruler of the Martial Epoch. Wouldn't he be more comfortable in the Eternal Sacred Land?
However, things were different now. Everyone knew that a second ruler had appeared in the Martial Epoch. As the saying went, two tigers cannot share one mountain. With another strong competitor, one of them had to leave.
In their opinion, Ye Xiwen must have been at a disadvantage when he fought with King Qin. Now that he was chased out, he had no choice but to find another place. In comparison, was there a better place than their Eternal Holy Land, aside from the Martial Epoch?
However, even the loser of the battle between the two tigers was not someone they could look up to.
"Why has Martial Lord Wu come to the Eternal Sacred Land?" someone asked loudly.
"I came to borrow something!" Ye Xiwen said.
Many heaved a sigh of relief at Ye Xiwen's words. It was much better as long as Ye Xiwen wasn't here to fight them. If a fight broke out, the Eternal Sacred Land might be able to drive Ye Xiwen out, but the price would be too great. It might even cost them their lives.
"What does Martial Lord Wu want to read?" someone asked.
"I know. Many rulers have come to the Eternal Sacred Land in the past, so I want to read through their records!" Ye Xiwen said.
Many people's first reaction was to refuse. After all, the records and notes left behind by their patriarchs were the most precious of treasures. No amount of wealth could buy them.
However, they quickly realized that the person in front of them was not someone they could refuse just because they wanted to.
"What if we don't agree?" someone asked.
"Then I'll beat you until you agree. Anyone who stops me will die!"
Ye Xiwen said coldly.
"Very well, please come in!"
After realizing that they had no power to stop Ye Xiwen, even the most stubborn of old men could only agree.
Ye Xiwen entered the Eternal Sacred Land with the two little fellows as if he were on a sightseeing tour. He was in no hurry.
They walked toward the inheritances of the rulers one after another.
These sovereigns would leave behind many relics when they took over the sacred land, containing many classics and personal notes. These were the most valuable treasures of the sacred land, and were usually kept in the hands of the various factions in the sacred land.
Now, they had to open them up to Ye Xiwen. However, they were used to it. Every ruler who had come to the Eternal Sacred Land had read these records and notes.
This was a very normal thing to begin with.
Ye Xiwen took the two little fellows with him as they walked. He even helped them open their Mind's Eye, allowing them to observe the workings of the great dao as they looked at the scenery. After all, the Eternal Sacred Land itself didn't exist. It had been created by the Eternal Sage with great power. Later, the various rulers had reinforced and expanded it.
As a result, there were various types of laws everywhere. They were even more obvious than in the Martial Epoch. This was why the Eternal Sacred Land had produced so many experts.
However, because the laws were incomplete, it was difficult for even rulers to complete them. As a result, it was difficult for rulers to produce experts. However, there was never a lack of half-step rulers.
The two little fellows looked around as they walked. They could feel their cultivation growing at a rapid pace. Their cultivation was already very fast to begin with, but now it felt like they were flying.
However, there were more benefits to be had in the future.
There were many things they couldn't understand at the moment, but they would be imprinted in their souls. Slowly, as their cultivation increased, they would naturally be able to understand them. By then, even if their cultivation was very low, they would still be able to improve by leaps and bounds.
This was Ye Xiwen's gift to the two little fellows.
Finally, Ye Xiwen stopped at the first ruler's relic. He stayed here for a full three years, reading the notes and comprehending the great dao at the same time.
With the help of the Wordless Dao Stele, his comprehension was incredibly fast. Other rulers might need hundreds of years to understand, but Ye Xiwen was able to do so in just a few years.
Then, he moved on to the next place.
Just like that, he led the two little fellows around. In a short hundred years, he had finished reading all the records and notes in the Eternal Sacred Land.
Not only did Ye Xiwen read them himself, but he also imprinted many of the key points of the classics into the two little fellows' souls so that they could comprehend the great dao in the future.
Countless celestial sovereigns gaped at the sight. Tears streamed down their cheeks. Just how lucky were these two little fellows? Their future prospects were limitless!
They'd been sitting in the ruins for many years, but it had been difficult for them to comprehend even a tiny bit of the classics. The great dao of a ruler was too profound for them to comprehend.
Now, however, Ye Xiwen was simplifying the most complicated of the great daos. He was teaching the two little fellows that this kind of treatment was unheard of, not even for the sons of rulers.
After leaving the Eternal Sacred Land, Ye Xiwen made his way to the Everlasting Sacred Land.
The Everlasting Sacred Land had already made their preparations. After all, a hundred years was more than enough time for them to gather information from the Eternal Sacred Land.
They didn't dare to stop Ye Xiwen in the face of his strength. After all, if they tried to stop Ye Xiwen at this time, it would be nothing more than death.
He'd killed a ruler just like that, let alone a bunch of half-step rulers.
In Ye Xiwen's eyes, they were no different from the weeds on the side of the road.
After entering the Everlasting Holy Land, Ye Xiwen took the two of them out to play and gain enlightenment. Time passed quickly. Another hundred years went by, during which time he finished reading all of the personal letters and ancient records of the various rulers of the Everlasting Holy Land.
Ye Xiwen was like a giant furnace. He studied the great daos of many rulers, even those of half-step rulers, and began to refine them.
In order to refine something of his own, Ye Xiwen's understanding of the great daos increased exponentially, reaching a level that ordinary people couldn't even begin to imagine.
But Ye Xiwen didn't stop. He began to follow the primordial chaos to find the ancient epochs.
Although the ancient epochs were well hidden, and ordinary half-step rulers would have a hard time finding them, it wasn't a problem for Ye Xiwen at his current level.
They had nowhere to hide, and they weren't even sacred lands. They had no way to resist Ye Xiwen, so they had no choice but to compromise. They offered their patriarchs' scriptures and letters for Ye Xiwen to read.
Fortunately, Ye Xiwen didn't intend to start a massacre. After reading the scriptures, he left with the two little fellows.
Just like that, Ye Xiwen visited the eras one after another. One after another, the Great Dao was integrated into his body. His aura became more and more ethereal and restrained, but it also became more dangerous.
If Ye Xiwen was like a sharp blade before, then he was like a sword hidden in its scabbard now, but his power was even more terrifying.
Ye Xiwen finally called Ye Mo and Ye Wudi back after hundreds of years. He took the two little guys away.
He was about to undergo his tribulation!
The terrifying tribulation clouds appeared in the primordial chaos, alarming all the ancient existences there.
"What kind of tribulation is this?"
