Primordial Star Scripture

A true Heavenly Saint, compared to one in a state where only the Heavenly Saint's True Soul remains, is completely different.

As this skeletal elder appeared, Ye Chen felt the entire void tremble. The Essence, Qi, and Spirit of the skeletal elder were all bursting with the aura of a Heavenly Saint, as if he were the master of this expanse of the void!

It seemed as if even the air in the void could be controlled by him, transforming into the vast power of a Heavenly Saint!

This feeling was definitely far beyond the power of the Heavenly Saint Law Bead and the power of the Heavenly Saint's True Soul!

Ye Chen's feeling was not wrong.

A true Heavenly Saint, having cultivated the three vital signs of life, Essence, Qi, and Spirit, to an immensely high and profound degree and having mastered at least one of the five Heavenly Void Laws—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth—to Great Perfection, would naturally possess exceptional strength.

He could easily wield the combat power of a Heavenly Saint's physical body, True Qi, and Divine Soul!

With all three vital signs of life fully unleashed, a true Heavenly Saint was indeed much stronger than one who only had the Divine Soul's combat power left!

This was the true might of a Heavenly Saint!

This was truly a supreme existence beyond the realms of True Qi Realm, Spirit Sea Realm, and Rotating Pill Realm!

Ye Chen observed Elder Kugu, feeling the true aura of a Heavenly Saint.

And Elder Kugu, who had arrived beside Heavenly Saint Moya with the aid of the Heavenly Saint Projection, peered at Ye Chen with his deeply sunken eyes, flashing with an eerie light.

"Hmm? A young man in the Spirit Sea Realm? And there's the power of a Heavenly Saint present in him?"

"These five lotus leaves seem to be a secret Treasure of the Divine Soul."

Elder Kugu's gaze swept over every part of Ye Chen's body, and Ye Chen felt as if all his secrets were laid bare before Elder Kugu.

Only the treasures on Ye Chen's person, which were not inferior to the Heavenly Saint Level— the Heaven Spirit Ring, the Azure Blue Mansion, the Crimson Fire Flying Sword, and the Starlight Tower in his Qi Sea—remained undetected by Elder Kugu.

Besides these, Ye Chen's Sword Intents and the Nine Transformation Fighting Body techniques all seemed to be seen through by Elder Kugu with but a glance.

Even Ye Chen's storage ring, the Ethereal Spirit Ring, seemed to be scrutinized by Elder Kugu's gaze!

"How powerful!"

"Is this a true Heavenly Saint? Just his gaze alone makes me feel like there's nowhere to hide!"

Feeling the terrifying gaze of Elder Kugu and sensing the peak aura of a Heavenly Saint emanating from him, Ye Chen finally understood the true power of the Heavenly Saint Realm.

This is the fourth major Realm in Martial Arts cultivation, a supreme existence that surpasses the True Qi Realm, Spirit Sea Realm, and Rotating Pill Realm!

This strength is far beyond Ye Chen's current capabilities; perhaps only if he enters the more powerful third chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture could he hope to contend.

The exchange of looks between Ye Chen and Elder Kugu lasted but a few breaths of time.

Afterward, Elder Kugu turned his head to look at Heavenly Saint Moya.

"Moya, where have you been these past three thousand years? Why are you only showing up now? Why are you so wretched, being chased down by a junior?" Elder Kugu asked Heavenly Saint Moya.

"I also wanted to come out earlier."

"Unfortunately, in the battle with Linghua years ago, I suffered severe injuries. Even my physical body shattered, and my Divine Soul was greatly damaged. I've been recuperating for thousands of years, only just now recovering..."

With a thought, Heavenly Saint Moya conveyed how he hid in an ancient tomb, using the Life Origin Coffin to recover his heavily injured Divine Soul, how he later deceived young people like Ye Chen into entering the tomb to perform body snatching, and the various situations he encountered when selecting a new body to Elder Kugu using a Divine Sense transmission.

This transmission of thoughts was incredibly fast.

In just a few moments of breath, Elder Kugu had completely understood everything.

Upon hearing that this young man in the Spirit Sea Realm, Ye Chen, was able to stand against an early-stage Rotating Pill Realm Demon King with a mere early-stage Spirit Sea Realm level, possessed countless treasures, even annihilated a strand of Moya's True Soul, and went as far to loot most of Moya's fortune, Elder Kugu narrowed his eyes.

He had heard Moya mention the Flying Sword, the Azure Blue Mansion, and the Life Origin Coffin.

But he had not discovered these items when he investigated Ye Chen, which meant that Ye Chen undoubtedly had a powerful Spatial Treasure hidden on him, containing countless items comparable to his own Heavenly Saint level, undetectable to him.

Thinking this, Elder Kugu's eyes suddenly burst with greedy light.

"Moya, rest assured, I will help you retrieve your treasures!"

"However, the other treasures that this little fellow has will belong to me."

Elder Kugu looked at Ye Chen as if he was looking at countless treasures.

"Elder Kugu, after killing this little fellow, I only want my treasures. You can take everything else! The grudge for destroying my True Soul must be avenged!" Heavenly Saint Moya also looked at Ye Chen, speaking resentfully.

Ye Chen watched the two of them, his eyes growing cold.

These two people were actually discussing openly how to divide up the treasures on his body and the matter of killing him. Could it really be that they thought he would just let himself be slaughtered?

With the old skeleton appearing in his full strength as a Heavenly Saint, it would be very difficult for Ye Chen to kill Heavenly Saint Moya again.

However, escaping from their hands, given that he still had three Heavenly Saint Attack Law Beads and five Heavenly Saint Defense Law Beads, the Tianga Primal Leaf, as well as the Azure Blue Mansion controlled by Phoenix Spirit, Ye Chen was confident.

Even more so, when facing the threat of true life danger, Ye Chen still had the second combat power of his flying sword—the life-bound flying sword breakage was available for use. If really pressured, Ye Chen would dare to fight to the death!

Moreover, Ye Chen still had the ultimate secret treasure, the Great Shift Law Bead, given to him by the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact when he left the Ancestral Land Secret Realm, tasked with looking after the little monkey. In a situation of insurmountable life-and-death danger, the Great Shift Law Bead could directly transfer him back to the Ancestral Land Secret Realm!

Ye Chen had many more tricks up his sleeve, and although some of them could not be used, he was not without means to preserve his life!

This was also why Ye Chen dared to pursue Heavenly Saint Moya!

Another reason Ye Chen did not retreat immediately after Elder Kugu appeared next to Heavenly Saint Moya with his full combat power of a Heavenly Saint was that Ye Chen had already noticed that six strong pursuers were following behind him.

Among the six strong pursuers, five were at the late stage of Rotating Pill Realm, and even though Fairy Jia Luo was at the middle stage, she was comparable to the late stage of the Rotating Pill Realm.

These six were the strongest forces in the entire Heavenly Wind Kingdom, and Ye Chen did not believe they lacked trump cards for a true confrontation with a Heavenly Saint.

Ye Chen was waiting here precisely to see if the joint forces of these six strong pursuers could bring a change to the battle situation.

If he truly found himself unable to deal with Heavenly Saint Moya and Elder Kugu, Ye Chen, with his many strategies, could still retreat without haste!

Elder Kugu and Heavenly Saint Moya were filled with a killing intent while Ye Chen's gaze was equally cold.

When the gazes of the three met, Elder Kugu's voice swept across the entire field.

"Little boy, I hear from Moya that you are called Ye Chen?"

"Seeing me appear, yet you remain so calm. Do you have other methods you haven't used yet?"

"I would like to see all the methods you have up your sleeve. Perhaps, if I take a liking to them, I'll only kill your divine soul and leave your body intact to refine it into one of my Dharma Embodiment avatars!"

Amidst Elder Kugu's laughter, a powerful Heavenly Saint aura surged towards Ye Chen.

This being in the Heavenly Saint Realm, Elder Kugu, directly took action!

"Heavenly Saint, once you've acquired a Heavenly Saint's True Soul, do you all crave to take over someone else's body?"

"That Moya wanted to snatch my body but had a cluster of his True Soul destroyed by me. You also want to snatch my body; let's see if you have the ability to do that!"

Boom!

In the midst of Elder Kugu's surging aura, Ye Chen's figure burst forth in flight, instantly flying backward.

At a location tens of miles behind Ye Chen, Fairy Jia Luo, Yunyang the Daoist of Cloud Sky Sect, and the other strong pursuers were flying towards him—Ye Chen had spotted them and wanted to join forces with them!

"Ye Chen!"

The six pursuers also spotted Ye Chen and noticed the second figure that had appeared in the sky, in addition to the Demon Sect's Heavenly Saint who had successfully performed the body snatching.

They also perceived the horrifying Heavenly Saint aura emanating from this second figure!

Seeing Ye Chen being engulfed by this Heavenly Saint aura, the faces of the six strong pursuers expressed extreme urgency as they flew towards Ye Chen.

In the group of pursuers, Yunyang the Daoist of Cloud Sky Sect immediately activated a Firelight Talisman in his hand, shining it fiercely towards the sky above. A blaze of shocking firelight erupted and surged directly towards Elder Kugu in the sky!

As the six strong pursuers approached at extreme speed and Ye Chen rapidly retreated,

Elder Kugu, with his Heavenly Saint aura swirling powerfully, glanced at both Ye Chen and the six pursuers and took note of the talisman firelight shining towards him.

"Got reinforcements, huh?"

"Even with help, don't think of escaping!"

Elder Kugu snorted coldly; his figure instantly flitted past the blast of firelight and positioned himself high in the sky.

The next moment, a series of colossal palms descended from the heavens, smashing down between Ye Chen's head and the earth, as if trying to obliterate everything.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

This was killing power of the Heavenly Saint Grade. The series of colossal palms, each over a hundred feet in size, shattered the entire void upon impact.

The tens of palm imprints, coming without so much as a hint of an interval between them, all struck out at once. The space between Ye Chen and the six pursuers was completely covered by these overwhelming palms.

Ye Chen, entirely engulfed by the palm imprints, had no avenue of escape!
