Supreme Sword God

Chapter 956: Chapter 955: Mysterious Being, Terrifying Rumors

The true headquarters of the Alliance of Bodies is located on a vast, magnificent island in the sea.

Ye Chen was granted a special privilege, accompanied by the Celestial Cauldron Emperor, the top figure of the alliance, to travel across the void.

On the road.

The Celestial Cauldron Emperor hinted that Ye Chen could directly seek out the friend who kept a piece of Enlightenment Tea, but Ye Chen pretended not to understand. The Celestial Cauldron Emperor couldn’t keep pressing, so Ye Chen managed to muddle through.

With the care of the Celestial Cauldron Emperor, Ye Chen directly obtained a large courtyard that only a Guardian-level figure could reside in on the alliance’s island.

The courtyard was fully equipped with all necessary facilities.

Ye Chen wandered around for a bit, then dived into the cultivation room and activated the restriction.

"The Celestial Cauldron Emperor isn’t so bored as to spy on me, right?" Ye Chen muttered to himself, then entered the Sword Tomb.

"Miss Qing, Master Legs!" Ye Chen’s voice echoed in the sixth layer of the Sword Tomb.

Little Phoenix was the first to fly over, landing on Ye Chen’s shoulder.

Then, Luo Qingyi, Master Legs, and an elderly gentleman Ye Chen hadn’t met appeared in his view.

No introduction necessary, Ye Chen knew who it was and immediately cupped his hands in salute, saying, "Ye Chen greets Uncle Long."

The elder from the Dragon Race’s expression momentarily froze.

Uncle Long?

Who’s your uncle?!

Master Legs replied serene and quietly, "Senior Long Chen, Luo Qingyi calls you Uncle Long, so this kid follows suit."

The elderly man named Long Chen’s stiff expression suddenly softened.

So that’s how it is... it’s fitting!

Luo Qingyi glared fiercely at Ye Chen and got straight to the point, "Let’s talk business. That emperor weapon has an evil aura, and what’s the deal with the Enlightenment Tea Tree?"

Back in Cangzhou, Luo Qingyi and the others rarely took the initiative to probe the outside world.

Ye Chen came to the Celestial Burial Sea, and now only Ye Chen communicates inside. Inside, Luo Qingyi and Master Legs no longer proactively care about outside affairs.

After all, there are too many powerful beings in the Celestial Burial Sea.

Ye Chen is a troublemaker, frequently mingling with top-level giants. Emperor-level powerhouses can already detect the abnormal fluctuations of the Sword Tomb.

Ye Chen was just about to speak when Luo Qingyi added, "If you dare to say you picked it up again, I’ll have Uncle Long teach you a lesson!"

Ye Chen chuckled speechlessly, then briefly recounted the story.

"I see."

Long Chen spoke, his tone suggesting he knew much.

Ye Chen immediately asked, "Uncle Long, are you familiar with forbidden zones? Do you know the secrets of the forbidden zones?"

Long Chen said, "Forbidden zones aren’t exclusive to the Celestial Burial Sea. In fact, the entire Celestial Essence Continent has multiple forbidden zones, including in the Eastern Domain where you used to stay.

You just hadn’t encountered them yet. As for the secrets of the forbidden zones... each one is related to previous eras.

Some from the last era, and some can be traced back to the one before."

Ye Chen said, "No wonder Lao Chi said the forbidden zone of the Celestial Burial Sea likely came from a terrifying being of the last era, collected from the negative emotions of countless creatures at the end of the era."

"Who’s Lao Chi?" asked Master Legs suddenly.

Ye Chen replied, "The Mutian Emperor I just talked about. If there’s a chance, I’ll let Lao Chi meet you, Master Legs. You two are sure to hit it off."

One, left with two legs.

One, left with a finger segment.

Master Legs isn’t a serious character.

Mutian Emperor’s finger excels in theft and is also adept at digging holes...

Physically, emotionally, or in terms of interests, Lao Chi and Master Legs are bound to resonate with each other!

Master Legs was stunned.

Luo Qingyi’s eyes also widened.

Even Long Chen appeared extremely astonished.

A super emperor once almost as close to a deity, even though all three of them consider it strong, how long has Ye Chen been in contact with him? He’s already become so familiar...

Ye Chen grinned, looked at Luo Qingyi, and said, "Miss Qing, where’s my Enlightenment Tea Tree?"

"What’s this about ’your Enlightenment Tea Tree’?" grumbled Master Legs. "It’s clearly something we obtained together."

Ye Chen said, "Alright then, where’s our Sword Tomb’s Enlightenment Tea Tree?"

After all, being the owner of the Sword Tomb, what’s in the Sword Tomb is his own, no difference whatsoever.

"Uncle Long, you tell him." Luo Qingyi’s expression grew somewhat solemn.

Ye Chen asked, "Uncle Long, is there also a problem with the Enlightenment Tea Tree?"

Long Chen nodded and shook his head, saying, "The Enlightenment Tea Tree isn’t something that grows in a forbidden zone. If I’m not mistaken, it should have been planted in the forbidden zone by that mysterious being."

"Mysterious being? Uncle Long, can you be more specific?" Ye Chen felt a tightness in his heart, as if he had... encountered another significant matter.

"That mysterious being, I don’t know his name, his origin, or his appearance, but his strength is undeniable.

He raised a great black dog at the exit of a forbidden zone in the Northern Domain, and the great black dog suppressed the forbidden zone for ten thousand years, not daring to set foot beyond.

He once, in a forbidden zone in the Western Domain, casually swung a slash, splitting that forbidden zone in two.

There’s even a rumor that he once ascended to the Divine Realm in a rage, causing an upheaval!

In short, he’s an enigmatic presence, powerful and terrifying, and during our era, only the most top-tier powerhouses knew the legends about him.

Legend has it that the being loved drinking tea, always carrying a tea tree with him, and that tea tree... is the Enlightenment Tea Tree, nurtured through his unparalleled grasp of the creation of heaven and earth.

If there’s anyone in this world who understands that mysterious being, it’s probably that unrivaled empress who suppressed the Southern Domain."

Ye Chen asked, "Unparalleled Empress?"

Long Chen nodded and said, "In the Southern Domain’s hundred thousand mountains, the situation was treacherous, tumultuous for tens of thousands of years without resolution, the Unparalleled Empress emerged, sweeping away all formidable foes, establishing unified order in the Southern Domain within her sphere.

The Unparalleled Empress came from an insignificant tribe orphan in the Southern Domain, with average qualifications.

It’s said that the Unparalleled Empress traveled with that mysterious being for eighteen years before achieving her later accomplishments."

As Long Chen finished speaking.

Ye Chen felt intense shock within.

That mysterious being is truly remarkable.

The Enlightenment Tea Tree he acquired could very well belong to a Supreme Powerhouse...

"Lad, sometimes when you see good things, don’t just pick up everything; one must act within their limits." Master Legs said earnestly and sincerely.

Ye Chen said, "The meat is already by my mouth; how could I not eat it?

Moreover, do you think I might have brought trouble upon myself?

Just now, I thought the same...

But actually, that’s not the case.

The Enlightenment Tea Tree cultivated by that mysterious being has now fallen into my hands, proving that I have a connection with that mysterious being.

When the time comes, if that mysterious being shows up, we might even sit together brewing Enlightenment Tea, talking about life, discussing ideals, and exploring the great path of cultivation!"

Long Chen, Luo Qingyi, Master Legs, along with Little Phoenix perched on Ye Chen’s shoulder, all didn’t know what to say at this moment.

The deeds of that mysterious presence would leave even emperors in awe and reverence.

And Ye Chen?

Not only dared to think but thought so far ahead, already considering sitting and discussing the Dao with that mysterious presence...
