Chapter 1436: Chapter 1435: Not Taking Taishi Dingtian Out!

Ye Tianchen managed to survive and successfully came out of the Black Tripod. Despite undergoing the ordeal with so many poisons, he didn’t die. This peril seemed not as formidable as imagined, not as exaggerated and shocking. However, it’s precisely this seemingly innocuous danger that is the most perilous, and only Ye Tianchen truly understands this!

If Ye Tianchen hadn’t, in his moment of urgency, grasped the true essence of this recipe, he would surely have died without any suspense. Ye Tianchen clearly understands that normally, anyone who gets hold of this recipe and even makes up their mind to temper themselves, would think that the recipe documents a very special method for physical tempering. They wouldn’t understand that it’s really for tempering one’s ”Taoist Heart.” That is its true function and purpose.

In reality, this recipe has no effect on physical tempering, or rather Ye Tianchen didn’t feel any effect. Instead, he correctly guessed that it was for ”Taoist Heart” tempering, which allowed him to successfully come out alive. The reason why the recipe includes so many poisons is only one: to prompt a martial artist who enters it, in a situation of despair with nearly no hope of survival, to still ignite the hope of life and not give up this already deadlocked game. This is the ultimate purpose of the recipe.

Ye Tianchen accomplished it, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t afraid or isn’t still shaken. It was indeed too dangerous. He was already at the brink of total physical and spiritual destruction. If not for comprehending the true purpose of the recipe in that mysterious state and steadfastly adhering to his ”Taoist Heart,” he would have been dissolved among those poisons. This tempering can be said to be the most hazardous experience in Ye Tianchen’s cultivation journey so far. Even if asked to do it again, he would still be a bit frightened. But being afraid doesn’t mean he wouldn’t dare. His ”Taoist Heart” is tenacious!

”Ah? No way, forget it. I’m really afraid of dying. One misstep leads to complete physical and spiritual annihilation!” Taishi Dingtian quickly backed out, saying.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Old Feng, then spoke, ”Old man, I want to ask you a question about the Shadowless Divine Array!”

”Brother Ye, go ahead!” Old Feng responded.

”The Shadowless Divine Array is a powerful and peculiar formation. If the decryption fails, everything within the formation disappears. But if it succeeds, will it still disappear?” Ye Tianchen asked.

”It shouldn’t. That’s the true wonder of the Shadowless Divine Array. It’s considered one of the strongest formations since ancient times in the Martial Arts World, not because of its powerful slaughter abilities, but due to its difficulty to break. Even with the cultivation level of an Ancient Saint, it’s not easy to break this Shadowless Divine Array. If it fails, everything within the formation will vanish and be impossible to trace, but if it succeeds, it won’t disappear!” Old Feng thought for a moment and said.

”That’s good. Old man, this time I must leave this world, but the outside world is indeed too dangerous. There are too many strong enemies to deal with. If I take this little brat out with me, it will be too risky. The next time I come in, I’ll definitely take him out!” Ye Tianchen said seriously.

”Brother Ye, the next time you return, who knows when that will be. By then...” Old Feng said hesitantly.

Ye Tianchen frowned. He knew what Old Feng meant. Old Feng was hoping that he could take Taishi Dingtian, this little brat, away because he hoped Taishi Dingtian could grow better and become stronger faster. He also foresaw that the world of the Jade Palace was about to fall into chaos and didn’t want Taishi Dingtian to stay here. However, Ye Tianchen indeed considered this situation. The laws of the entire Martial Arts World seem to be gradually changing, the situation of winds rising and storms brewing is bound to occur and cannot be stopped. Just take the Ancient Martial World of Penglai, for instance, Ye Tianchen has already made too many enemies, and even the whereabouts of Long Teng Dashao have been discovered. How could Ye Tianchen not understand the danger? If he took Taishi Dingtian, this little brat, out at this moment, and anything unexpected happened, even if Taishi Dingtian got hurt, Ye Tianchen would be anxious. How would he explain to Old Feng? How would he explain to the martyrs of the Taishi family?

The best way is to let Taishi Dingtian stay here until Ye Tianchen resolves some grievances, and the Earth’s three Ancient Martial Worlds have calmed down somewhat. Then he will enter the world of the Jade Palace again and bring Taishi Dingtian out.

”Hmph, if you don’t want to take me out of here, just say it. There’s no need for some excuse!” Taishi Dingtian snorted displeasedly.

”It’s not an excuse; it’s for your safety.” Ye Tianchen said seriously.

”Brother Ye, I know you have considered it, but the world of the Jade Palace, without the Human Clan Emperor ruling, is about to fall into chaos within ten years after so many long years. I hope Dingtian can leave. You understand what I mean!” Old Feng said.

”Old man, don’t worry. Within ten years, I will definitely return to this world once more. I came to the world of the Jade Palace but haven’t had the chance to explore it. I haven’t obtained any opportunities or heritage before leaving. I’m not willing to leave like this, but I do have something very important to do. Once I’ve accomplished it, I will definitely return here!” Ye Tianchen said earnestly.

”Grandpa, there’s no need to say much to him. If he doesn’t want to take me out of this Jade Palace world, so be it. I don’t believe that without him, I can’t leave this world. When I grow stronger, I’ll break out on my own!” Taishi Dingtian confidently clenched his fists and said.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Taishi Dingtian, frowned, and then disdainfully said, ”With just you? Fine, how about we make a bet?”

”What kind of bet?” Taishi Dingtian asked, taken aback.

”Within ten years, if you can leave this Jade Palace world on your own without relying on my power, I’ll give you a Supreme Treasure. But if you still need to rely on my power, then you must say three times in front of me, ’I am very weak!’” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

”You... alright, I’ll take this bet with you. You underestimate me too much!” Taishi Dingtian looked at Ye Tianchen fiercely and said.

Ye Tianchen didn’t say much more and instead glanced at Old Feng, gesturing for him to head to the entrance of Taishi Village. Time was running out, with only less than an hour left before the entrance’s Jade Door would close. Ye Tianchen had to hurry!

At the entrance of Taishi Village, Ye Tianchen and Old Feng exchanged a look. Ye Tianchen first spoke, ”Rest assured, old man. I, Ye Tianchen, keep my promises. What I promised you, I will accomplish. It’s just that this time, it’s truly inconvenient!”

”Brother Ye, I know you’re doing this for the child’s sake. He doesn’t understand your intentions and was a bit disrespectful, please don’t take it to heart!” Old Feng said with a smile.

”I won’t. I hope my words and this bet can stimulate the potential in this brat. I can tell he has a lot of cultivation talent and should become strong soon!” Ye Tianchen shook his head, smiling as he spoke.

”Yes, you should hurry and go. There’s not much time left. I hope you can return here soon!” Old Feng nodded in agreement.

Buzz!

With a wave of his right hand, Ye Tianchen produced a piece of beast skin inscribed with numerous details — it was exactly what he had been engraving while walking out of Taishi Village. Handing it to Old Feng, he said, ”This is a very powerful Foundation Establishment Skill. Give it to the brat and let him study and comprehend it well. If he truly comprehends it fully, it will benefit him for a lifetime!”

”Brother Ye, such a valuable item...” Old Feng said in astonishment.

”Old man, I can see that the villagers of Taishi Village are sincere, and you treat people genuinely as well. I’m not a person who overthinks; this is a token of my goodwill. Take it, I’ll be off!” Ye Tianchen handed the beast skin to Old Feng and turned away to leave.

Old Feng watched Ye Tianchen use Qi Manipulation Flight to leave, frowned, then looked at the beast skin in his hand and said, ”Time is short. I must secure a chance for the child Dingtian. I hope Brother Ye can return to this world soon!”

Along the way, Ye Tianchen was swift as the wind, pushing the ”Divine Movement Skill” to its limits as he rushed towards the Jade Door. The creator of this Jade Palace, a Great Emperor of the Human Clan, was truly powerful, worthy of all admiration. He had refined an entrance, engraved the Shadowless Divine Array, and people from the outside could enter through the Jade Door if they broke the Shadowless Divine Array. The door would close in three days, and even if it opened, those inside without sensing the entry would be unable to find their way out. This was truly amazing!

At this moment, outside the Jade Door, the tricky Divine Bowl had already exited, and two beautiful clam elves quickly gathered around, wanting to ask if it found the seal location of their clam elf clan’s princess. The Divine Bowl, pretending to be virtuous and moral, said:

”Oh, I think you should thank me! That kid entered the Jade Palace world and didn’t remember your request to find the princess at all. He didn’t care about it. It was still I who constantly urged and reminded him, but that kid was focused only on seeking his destiny, while I painstakingly searched for your clam elf princess’s seal location for three days and nights...” (To be continued.
