Chương 908: Chapter 907: Exiled Immortal from Another Realm!

Faced with his Senior Sister's righteous and resolute participation, Ye Chen found it difficult to refuse. He could only continue circulating the divine technique without pause. In the blink of an eye, two and a half days passed. Ye Chen had already collected nearly every stray thought from Supreme Dantai Xuan. He confirmed that his Senior Sister's plan was correct.

As long as she remained the dominant force, broke through to Saint, condensed her seed, and then elevated that seed into a Heavenly Heart Imprint, she could completely suppress her Supreme soul fragment. She would hold absolute control over the body. So long as the true body refused, the fragment would have no opportunity to seize control. Even if she allowed the fragment temporary use of the body, the true body could recall it at any moment. Even Ye Chen could see no hidden dangers.

"Senior Sister, I believe everything is fine now…" Ye Chen was prepared to stop. But Dantai Xuan's true body trembled softly for a moment before replying in a languid voice.

"Junior Brother, this concerns my future after all… I'm still not at ease. I want to collect a little longer…" Ye Chen: "…" At that moment, Supreme Dantai Xuan spoke up of her own accord.

"Main soul, your reasoning is sound. There's no need to continue collecting… For a very long time to come—unless you do something foolish yourself—I will pose no threat to your control." Even the Supreme soul had spoken. Yet the true body paid no attention whatsoever. She continued delving deeper into the thoughts. Another day passed… Ye Chen urged gently: "…" On the pure features of Dantai Xuan's divine soul appeared a vacant, dreamy haze. After a long moment, she shook her head.

"According to the fragment's words, the Supreme must be an existence of Immortal King level—or even higher… Standing in opposition to such a being, no amount of caution is excessive… So I must ask Junior Brother to assist me further…" What could Ye Chen do? He could only indulge her. Another day went by! Ye Chen: "Senior Sister, have you finished checking?" Dantai Xuan's true body: "I've noticed a slight clue. I need to probe deeper…" Another day! Ye Chen: "Senior Sister…"

Dantai Xuan's true body: "Almost, almost—I feel like I've discovered something…" Another day… Hearing his Senior Sister refuse once again, Ye Chen no longer knew what to say. Even the perpetually cold Supreme Dantai Xuan couldn't help rolling her eyes at the true body, openly displaying her disdain… His Senior Sister's enthusiasm for this matter had truly reached an absurd level. Ye Chen couldn't bring himself to say it was simply her true nature.

He could only blame the Divine Maiden Furnace for causing such harm—look what it had turned his Senior Sister into. Once he no longer needed it in the future, he would personally destroy the thing! And so it continued—until even the system's feedback cooldown had ended. Ye Chen finally stopped indulging her. Still, he considerately waited until her trembling fit had passed before ceasing to circulate the Heavenly Desire Sect's divine technique.

Watching his Senior Sister's divine soul slump in wistful exhaustion, Ye Chen casually retrieved a top-grade soul-nourishing spiritual plant from his cave heaven and offered it to her. Though Dantai Xuan felt a faint resentment at the abrupt end, overall, she had eaten her fill—half a meal, at least. Now she could break through with peace of mind. Seeing that her Junior Brother had even given her a supreme spiritual plant to replenish her divine soul, warmth bloomed in Dantai Xuan's heart.

As for Ye Chen, he glanced at the ordinary crit feedback and felt no disappointment. He had only offered it on principle, not wanting to waste the opportunity. Next, Ye Chen's divine soul decisively withdrew from his Senior Sister's sea of consciousness and returned to his body. He then looked at the unconscious form of his Senior Sister. At some point, she had drifted to within two meters of him. His clothes were damp, carrying a faint citrus fragrance. He wanted to say something, yet the words wouldn't come.

This was the first time he had been the one actively attacked. When Dantai Xuan regained control of her body and noticed the scene, she felt a trace of embarrassment… But deep in her heart, a bold new idea emerged. If even her divine soul had reacted this way, wouldn't her physical body absolutely soar? The thought made her eyes gleam. Ye Chen saw the look on her face and immediately sensed trouble brewing again. His Senior Sister had a high multiplier and carried gratitude.

Of course, he didn't need to keep her for crits. But the problem was that everyone in the holy land knew she was currently with him. He was using the Divine Maiden Furnace to help her. If he truly did something, and she returned no longer a maiden, what would everyone think of him? That he had taken advantage of the furnace's effects to shamelessly claim her? If you come across this story on Amazon, it's taken without permission from the author. Report it. His reputation was already hanging by a thread.

He absolutely could not let it fall any further. So—no. Absolutely not.

"Before I leave, I checked the seal on your Supreme soul fragment once more. It will remain secure for quite some time! Therefore, Senior Sister, please break through as soon as possible and return to normal! Junior Brother will take his leave now… Once I return to the Heavenly Evolution Holy Land, I will release you from the furnace." With those few words, Ye Chen turned and left the Divine Maiden Furnace directly. Dantai Xuan watched him depart with disappointment, but soon a smile curved her lips.

Even in this state, her Junior Brother had not revealed his true nature. He hadn't even dared look directly at her—only stealing glances from the corner of his eye. What did that mean? Though he desired her, he truly respected her. Moreover, he kept urging her to focus on cultivation. Her Junior Brother really was a kind-hearted man who knew how to care for others. If she became Dao companions with such a man, she would surely feel completely at ease!

But Dantai Xuan quickly set aside those stray thoughts and began formal cultivation. She circulated the Supreme Severing Dao Technique and prepared to break through to the Saint realm! After leaving the Divine Maiden Furnace, Luo Bingling and Lu Jing were both in the middle of cultivation. Ye Chen currently had no particular interest in other matters; he only wanted to break through to Saint King as quickly as possible.

After a moment of thought, he took out three portions of Heavenly Will Sand, Cosmic Origin Crystals, and the imprinted Chaos Gold Radiance Severing Dao Technique. He carefully divided them into three jade boxes, sealed each one, and entrusted them to an elder.

"Please deliver one portion each to Su Yuxuan, Lan Nuo, and Yao Yuezhi." As for himself, he followed the other elders and set off to return to the Great Yan Continent. The reason he insisted on breaking through in Great Yan Continent was simple: he suddenly felt the nether poison flare up again, and he found himself missing Senior An. Therefore, Ye Chen decided to go back and see her first. Then he would break through along the way… On the journey back, Ye Chen's brow suddenly twitched.

The Foresight Secret automatically activated. This meant someone was divining him. Ye Chen deliberately loosened the restriction on the Foresight Secret by a tiny margin, allowing the other party to glimpse some unimportant information. But the moment the other side tried to probe deeper, Ye Chen pushed the Foresight Secret to its maximum speed… Boom… An invisible force rippled through the heavenly secrets. A faint smile curved Ye Chen's lips. This was his counterattack.

If the person divining him had low cultivation, this backlash might affect half their lifespan. Even if their cultivation was profound, they would still suffer considerably. Though he didn't know who it was, Ye Chen felt quite pleased. He leisurely adjusted his own state, waiting only to meet Senior An before officially breaking through to Saint King! … Meanwhile, in the eighth realm of the Immortal Path, the one the world called the Exiled Immortal was sitting in meditation, divining something.

His eyes narrowed slightly. A drop of blood-tear slid from the corner of his eye. But his expression showed little concern. The blood-tear vanished in an instant.

"Peak Saint… and he possesses a method to obscure heavenly secrets, causing me backlash… It should be this world's Foresight Secret. The Nine Secrets are indeed wondrous. If united into one, their power would absolutely not be inferior to Immortal King techniques."

"Judging from this child's growth trajectory, he is clearly blessed with great fortune. Moreover, he is the Heavenly Emperor's heir… He should be the final Son of Providence of this world. Killing him would sever the last remaining strand of this world's destiny." The man murmured calmly to himself. Yet even knowing Ye Chen's extraordinariness, his eyes remained tranquil, as though nothing in the world was worth placing in his gaze. And the reason for this confidence was simple: He had once been an immortal.

And not an immortal of the Immortal Realm—but of the Other Domain! Of course, to the people of the Immortal Realm, it was called the Other Domain. In their own world, they had a far more resounding name. Nine Heavens and Ten Earths! Recalling the past, a trace of bewilderment flashed through his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by blazing hope. He had once been one of the top prodigies of the ten great academies of the Other Domain, a being with the potential to become an Immortal King.

But during the invasion of the Immortal Realm, he had been nearly killed with a single punch by the Heavenly Emperor, who was only at the same realm as him at the time… When the academy elders rescued him and brought him back to Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, although his life was saved, his foundation was ruined. Not only was he completely cut off from the path to Immortal King, but he could also barely maintain his realm. However, the academy elders valued him highly, and his divine soul was special.

They granted him an extremely precious opportunity: to reincarnate and awaken his previous-life memories. And they did not send him to reincarnate in Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, nor in the Immortal Realm. Instead, they sent him to the most important small world beneath the Immortal Realm. At that time, Nine Heavens and Ten Earths had been locked in endless war with the Immortal Realm, and many Immortal Realm factions had already been infiltrated. This created an opportunity.

The academy head personally acted, tearing open a rift with a grand formation and casting him into this world. The plan was for him to awaken his past-life wisdom in his final incarnation, become an immortal, and seize all the opportunities and destiny of this realm. If he could become the last True Immortal of this world, it would provide enormous assistance when the time came to divide up the cultivation realm. The War God Academy would receive a very large share.

Recalling everything that had happened, the Exiled Immortal's lips curved into a faint smile. Although it was only a small world, the opportunities here were truly terrifying. The World Tree seedling in the hands of that Eight-Crowned King alone had shocked even him. If it could mature and be fused with, it could serve as a second spiritual root—comparable to an immortal spiritual root, almost guaranteeing the path to Immortal King.

Then there was the Celestial Prince, who surely possessed an extremely powerful ancient scripture—likely Immortal King grade, worth cities. And countless immortal artifacts and treasures. Even in the Immortal Realm or the Other Domain, such things would be extraordinary. Not to mention the Jianmu Root and so on. In short, once he successfully ascended to immortality and harvested everything, he was certain to become an Immortal King in the future.

Thinking of the backlash he had just suffered while divining Ye Chen, the Exiled Immortal sneered coldly.

"Unfortunately, I still need to suppress my cultivation for a while longer before I can break through to Quasi-Immortal. For now, I cannot wield immortal artifacts to attack a holy land. But it doesn't matter. This person is about to break through to Saint King. Have people wait in the sixth realm and kill him there…" With that thought, the Exiled Immortal gently formed a hand seal.

In an instant, several prodigies whom he had suppressed over the years—those with decent talent and whom he had branded and enslaved—received the summons. They immediately began hurrying toward the eighth realm…
