The God Emperor's Tomb.
Even if he hadn't communicated with Gu Li, Ye Zichen was determined to enter the tomb as soon as possible.
Xue Mo was still lying in bed, heavily injured. Her soul had yet to return to the River Styx. Ye Zichen's Emperor Star was keeping her alive.
The Hermit Emperor had once said that there was something in the God Emperor's Tomb that could truly bring Xue Mo back to life.
The sooner he obtained it, the sooner Xue Mo would wake up.
In order to awaken Xue Mo as soon as possible, Ye Zichen naturally spared no effort in obtaining it.
Never mind whether or not he'd have to cooperate with Gu Li in the end, the two of them had the key fragments. If he wanted to open the tomb, he'd have to combine them.
More importantly, he needed the key to the final floor of the Yao-Sealing Pagoda.
A ruler.
Breaking through to ruler was a dream for most people, but for Ye Zichen, who had the Emperor Star's celestial fate, breaking through was as easy as turning over his hand.
However, opening the final floor required more than just a ruler's cultivation.
Ye Zichen estimated that even if he couldn't condense the Dao Heart of the Five Elements, he'd need at least one of them to reach perfection.
That was the most difficult problem to solve.
The God Emperor's Tomb would completely collapse within half a month, so he naturally didn't have much time left.
"Great Sage, Yang Jian, Jing Wan ….."
Ye Zichen muttered to himself for a moment, then looked up at them. When they heard his words, they all looked at him, then heard Ye Zichen speak.
Ye Zichen said, "I'm going into seclusion. Don't disturb me, no matter what. Yang Jian, go tell the Queen Mother not to worry about the God Emperor's Tomb. I'll definitely head there once I leave seclusion. "
"Alright."
Hearing that, Yang Jian nodded. Ye Zichen nodded deeply, "Alright, then.
"Everyone, please stand guard for me."
Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, Ye Zichen had been in seclusion for several days.
Along the way, a few great emperors really did seek out Ye Zichen, but Yang Jian, the Great Sage, and the others brushed them off. However, the God Realm's internal strife only grew more and more intense.
The Central Divine Mountain formed its own faction.
While Ye Zichen was in seclusion, the other Divine Mountains found it incomprehensible. The Central Divine Mountain completely sealed itself off from the outside world.
From afar, one could only see a flickering barrier of lightning sealing off the Central Divine Mountain.
Outsiders had no way of knowing what was going on inside the Central Divine Mountain. No one could enter, and the people inside couldn't leave.
Even the Divine Arbiter, the only person in the group who could spy on the Central Divine Mountain, had lost contact with the Emperors.
Presumably, this barrier that sealed off Heavenly God City would not only block divine sense signals, but even internet signals would also be cut off.
As soon as the Hundred Treasures Trading Company's Zuo Mo noticed that the signal had been blocked, she immediately sent people to break it.
It was just that they did not achieve good results, but the technicians did not give up. They were still thinking about how to transmit the signal.
At the same time, several divine mountains in the alliance were also sending large numbers of blacksmiths to the Hundred Treasures Chamber of Commerce.
It's worth mentioning that now that the Spirit Formation Master Association and the Paragon Hall had joined the Upheaval Alliance, the Upheaval Alliance's combat power had multiplied. Within a few days, the Tenth Divine Mountain had gained tens of thousands of Spiritual Formations. It looked like it was about to become the number one Divine Mountain.
However, the Supreme Hall was also continuously sending formation masters to the Hundred Treasures Chamber of Commerce for unknown reasons!
What was even more surprising was that half a year ago, the relationship between the three races had been ambiguous, but now, not even the slightest bit of friction had arisen between them.
It was as if the three sides had agreed to do their own thing and not disturb each other.
Back in the Sea of Innocence's Xue Family's inner sect, Ye Zichen had gone into seclusion to break through. Due to his special status, the Ocean Emperor had ordered all clansmen, regardless of whether they were from the main family or branch families, to put down their weapons and return to the clan to stand guard for him.
As far as the eye could see, it could be said that there were sentries every three steps and guards every ten.
Mottled divine power crisscrossed each other. With such a tight defense, forget anyone trying to disrupt Ye Zichen's enlightenment, not even a bug could escape their line of sight.
While Ye Zichen was in seclusion, the Venerable of Numinous Treasure returned from the dungeons. Ever since he'd returned, Yang Jian had been wary of him. Pu Jingwan didn't speak to him, either. Only the Great Sage and Numinous Treasure would occasionally get together to discuss the Dao of Thieves.
"How long has he been in seclusion?"
Asked the Venerable of Numinous Treasure. Yang Jian naturally wouldn't answer. Pu Jingwan sat on a tree trunk, eating who knew what. Only the Great Sage glanced at his room.
"Almost half a month."
"That's really long." The Venerable of Numinous Treasure frowned. The Great Sage couldn't help but arch his brows. "Is that really long? At his level, isn't it normal for him to go into seclusion for a hundred years?"
"That's true, but we don't have that much time left."
The Venerable of Numinous Treasure sighed, but inwardly, he couldn't help but mutter, "You'd better hurry.
"You'd better hurry up. You don't have much time left."
Within his sea of consciousness.
Ye Zichen's sea of consciousness was a sea of fire. He sat cross-legged in the midst of the primal chaos, and heavenly fire rained down around him.
However, Ye Zichen's brows were deeply furrowed. Of the Five Elements, the Dao of fire he'd gained the deepest understanding of. While in seclusion, he'd wanted to study it, but half a month of seclusion had yielded little results.
He desperately needed it.
Even though he didn't know how much time had passed in the outside world, he knew he didn't have much time left. He couldn't afford to remain stagnant on the path of fire forever.
The Five Elements Great Emperor had destroyed his Dao Heart of the Five Elements, so there was no way he could continue condensing it. The road ahead was full of thorns. Ye Zichen had to rely on his own experience.
Although the former Emperor Hades and the Ocean Emperor had both given him pointers on the Five Elements, they each had their own Great Daos. Their understandings of the Five Elements were only superficial. They might be of some help to Ye Zichen in the early stages, but in the end, he'd have to rely on himself to complete and condense his Dao Heart.
"Could it be that I've chosen the wrong path?" he murmured, his gaze grave.
Ye Zichen had never felt himself to be particularly talented. He didn't dare compare himself to a monstrous genius like Divine Rain, who'd comprehended three peerless Great Daos. However, he was no mediocre person. His stagnation in fire truly made him anxious.
"Of course you've chosen the wrong path."
