Chương 786: Chapter 707: The Upper Limit of the Indestructible Heavenly Art!

Luo Bingling stopped being angry. Well, she was still a little angry. But after Ye Chen promised to eat cherries twice, she finally stopped being angry. She happily climbed aboard the chariot, mood soaring, and they flew toward the Great Yan Continent together. Yao Yuezhi only got a fragment. She would get the complete version. Yao Yuezhi only got a little kiss. But Ye Chen would be eating cherries. And Ye Chen had already seen through Yao Yuezhi's two-faced act. No matter how you looked at it, she came out on top.

Total victory! … Inside the chariot, Ye Chen added a shielding array and began "compensating" Luo Bingling. While smacking his lips in satisfaction, he sent his divine sense into the Yellow Springs water. The Holy Prince's soul had long been reduced to an idiot. But Prince Lu Ya's soul was surprisingly resilient—it had held out until now. Sensing Ye Chen's aura, it immediately shouted: "Fellow Daoist Ye, I have a younger sister too… not only that, my mother is—" Ye Chen's mouth twitched. What a filial son.

But considering the Golden Crow Clan's traditions, even ten sisters wouldn't help. Ye Chen deliberately intensified the Yellow Springs water. Finally, Lu Ya's soul was washed clean and tossed into the Human Emperor Banner. Their origin essences were extracted from the water and thrown into the Swallowing Heavens Demon Jar to be automatically purified. Waste not, want not. This whole trip had been for origin essence. The Nine Secrets were just a happy bonus. Now he had eight of the nine!

Next stop: Heavenly Intention Holy Land. Gift the origin essence to his fiancée. The Holy Prince's alone rivaled the combined total of the others from before. Add Lu Ya's—nearly as rich—and the feedback from gifting both together would be insane. Thinking of this, Ye Chen's mood soared. He took a deep, contented breath… … Luo Bingling sat on the war chariot, body completely relaxed, face glowing with satisfaction. But when she noticed the direction they were flying, she frowned slightly.

Her voice still carried a hint of lingering numbness as she asked, "Fellow Daoist Ye, this isn't the way to Heavenly Evolution Holy Land!" Ye Chen nodded.

"Next stop is Heavenly Intention Holy Land. I need to see Yi Qingwu." The good mood she had just regained instantly soured again. She didn't like that woman who had once drenched her head to toe. And she didn't want to waste time.

"Can we not go?" Ye Chen's earlier tenderness had convinced her she had leverage. Yet Ye Chen shook his head without hesitation. Not a trace of that gentleness remained. The decisive refusal made Luo Bingling unhappy once more. She turned away with a cold huff. But this time, Ye Chen didn't even glance at her. When it was time to coax, he would lower himself and coax. When it wasn't, he had to stand firm. A man had to be soft when needed and hard when needed.

Otherwise, he'd just be a lapdog, a workhorse, an ATM, a provider. Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings. Luo Bingling was angry. Very angry. But after half a day passed and Ye Chen showed no reaction, worry crept in. Had she gone too far? The entire cultivation world knew what Ye Chen was like. A hopeless womanizer who never let one go. For a genius like him to lower his head to her earlier had already been incredibly rare. Was she really pushing too far?

If she kept being stubborn, would he start to hate her? Wouldn't that ruin everything she had worked for? With that thought, Luo Bingling took the initiative. She grabbed Ye Chen's hand and wrapped it around her waist herself. She even arched her back a little, pressing the gem at her navel into his palm. Seeing he still didn't move, her golden war boots slowly descended… Only then did she feel Ye Chen's attitude soften. But it still wasn't soft enough. So after a while, Luo Bingling proactively lowered her head.

A long, long time later, she finally confirmed Ye Chen was no longer upset. … And so, while steadfastly upholding the principle of being soft when needed and hard when needed, Ye Chen arrived at Heavenly Intention Holy Land. Looking at the elders welcoming him at the mountain gate, and the disciples who had rushed over, faces full of enthusiasm and worship, Ye Chen couldn't help but smile.

He recalled how, not long ago, he and Ying Tiansheng had been mortal enemies, completely at odds with Heavenly Intention Holy Land. Now, in such a short time, visiting Heavenly Intention felt like coming home. Completely at ease. And the fiancée was still the same fiancée, only now she was truly his. Looking at his fiancée, still as breathtakingly beautiful as moonlight made skin, Ye Chen couldn't help but smile. Yi Qingwu remained as aloof as ever, chin raised.

"What are you here for?" Ye Chen was long used to her tone and answered with a grin, "Of course I missed you!" She let out a disdainful laugh, voice like an oriole.

"I think you missed your little sister. Why didn't you follow her to Central Continent and properly cultivate your sibling bond!" With that, she ignored him and floated gracefully toward her cave abode. Ye Chen raised a brow. News traveled that fast? His fiancée was clearly jealous. He immediately followed. Luo Bingling hesitated for a moment, remembering the great splashing incident, then steeled herself and followed too. She wasn't the same person she used to be. This time she had to get revenge—splash her back!

Inside the cave abode, Ye Chen looked Yi Qingwu up and down with a wide smile. Her multiplier had already reached four thousand times before, on par with Lan Nuo. After refining Ba Wang and others' origin essence, it had risen to four thousand five hundred. Now, gifting her both the Holy Prince's and Lu Ya's origin essence, two absolute peak geniuses, Ye Chen figured once she fully refined them, she might hit five thousand times—matching Yao Yuezhi. Thinking of this, his smile grew even brighter.

His fiancée was not only fun, she had limitless potential and would never fall behind. Ye Chen's Heavy Pupils flickered. He could feel that her constitution had already transformed greatly. Moonlight still flowed around her, but deep inside, chaos qi was beginning to spread. Her acquired Chaos Body was nearly complete. She could already be called a half-step Chaos Body. After all, according to Ye Chen's estimates, an acquired Chaos Body topped out around six thousand times.

Even the genuine Chaos Body was only seven thousand. This was the headache Ye Chen faced. The Indestructible Heavenly Art's absorption of origin essence had a ceiling. What would he do when his fiancée couldn't absorb any more? Have all his other women cultivate the Indestructible Heavenly Art too and obtain acquired Chaos Bodies? Or try to improve the technique itself, break through the limit, and allow continued growth after reaching the acquired Chaos Body? Those were problems for later.

Right now, he needed to soothe his jealous fiancée—and gift the origin essence. And as everyone knew, the best way to express apology wasn't words. It was action. Ye Chen gave her no chance to speak. He pinned her against the cave wall and kissed her. In the midst of their tongue battle, Ye Chen also activated the "Mark Secret". Instantly, Yi Qingwu's delicate body went soft. All resistance melted away.
