868: The Finale [Part 1]: Ye Mohan's Wild Actions

It was unknown how much time had passed, but when Yang Lingchen woke up again, he was startled to find himself in a desolate Star Domain.

The place was pitch black, with no trace of life in the surroundings. It was silent to the extreme, instilling fear in one's heart, as if it were a corner ruthlessly abandoned by time.

In this vast and boundless Star Domain, Yang Lingchen felt an unprecedented sense of helplessness and despair.

His brow furrowed slightly, and a sliver of fear involuntarily rose in his heart.

This Star Domain was simply too strange, like a dead end completely isolated from the outside world.

In this seemingly lifeless Star Domain, the only bright spot was a star not far away.

This star was the only light source in this Star Domain. It stood lonely amidst the desolation, like a pearl independent of the world, flickering with a weak but resilient and unyielding light.

Looking at that shining star, Yang Lingchen gritted his teeth and resolutely decided to fly in that direction.

Time passed quietly like flowing water. Five long years of flight caused Yang Lingchen to endure countless hardships and tribulations.

During this five-year flight journey, Yang Lingchen crossed the endless dark Void Realm, skillfully avoided countless meteorites and interstellar dust, and finally successfully reached that star.

"Damn it, what kind of ghost place is this?"

When Yang Lingchen stepped onto the land of that star, his heart was filled with endless disappointment and frustration.

He never expected that this star would actually be a lifeless Dead Star, with no sign of vitality or vigor at all.

Since he had already come here, Yang Lingchen still decided to seriously explore this star.

After all, this star was the only existence nearby. If he were to leave now, he truly wouldn't know where to go. Instead of flying aimlessly, it was better to properly investigate this star.

Subsequently, Yang Lingchen flew around the star once and found that its area was not large, roughly equivalent to the area of Earth.

For the current Yang Lingchen, flying one lap only took about fifteen minutes.

In the following days, Yang Lingchen stayed on this star, carefully searching every corner.

Finally, on this day, Yang Lingchen suddenly keenly sensed an extremely weak trace of Spiritual Qi.

This trace of Spiritual Qi was like a bright lamp in the darkness, causing a hint of hard-to-conceal joy to instantly appear on his face.

Immediately, he impatiently flew toward the direction of that weak Spiritual Qi, a ripple of expectation and hope rising in his heart.

A moment later, he arrived at a valley.

After a careful search, Yang Lingchen discovered that the Spiritual Qi was leaking from a cave within the valley.

This cave was hidden in the deepest part of the valley. If he hadn't searched so carefully, it would have been extremely difficult to find this place.

Standing outside the cave, Yang Lingchen felt a surge of extremely dense Spiritual Qi rushing toward him. This Spiritual Qi was fresh, pleasant, and thick. He had never encountered such incomparably pure Spiritual Qi before.

Yang Lingchen's heart stirred; he knew deeply that this was a once-in-a-lifetime great opportunity.

Then, Yang Lingchen stepped forward and resolutely walked into the cave.

The path inside the cave was winding and twisted, extending continuously underground. Yang Lingchen moved forward cautiously, every step filled with prudence and expectation.

As he went deeper, the Spiritual Qi within the cave became more and more abundant, flowing slowly through the air like a physical substance.

Yang Lingchen felt as if he were in a vast ocean formed by Spiritual Qi, able to absorb a large amount of Spiritual Qi with every breath.

After an unknown amount of time, Yang Lingchen finally reached the central area of this star.

Upon arriving in this area, the surrounding Spiritual Qi had reached its peak density.

A massive Primordial Immortal Vein instantly caught his eye, emitting a dazzling and brilliant light.

Yang Lingchen took a deep breath, feeling the boundlessness and pure flawlessness of this ocean of Spiritual Qi, and a surge of heroic spirit rose in his heart.

"Yang Haotian, you just wait for me."

Then, Yang Lingchen activated the Vast Heaven Jade and directly stored the entire planet inside it.

He wanted to use this Primordial Immortal Vein to pass the assessments of the eighth and ninth floors of the nine profound exquisite pagoda.

Because if he were to refine this Primordial Immortal Vein normally, it might take hundreds or even thousands of years, but inside the nine profound exquisite pagoda, time would be significantly shortened.

"Yang Lingchen, I thought something big had happened to you. Why did it take five or six years to come in?" Ye Mohan asked.

"I ran into Yang Haotian and almost died at his hands."

Yang Lingchen then recounted the events between himself and Yang Haotian in detail.

"You really are ignorant and fearless. Yang Haotian is the most outstanding Prodigy Genius in the history of the Myriad Heavens Immortal Realm, yet you thought you could save someone from his hands?" Ye Mohan said crossly.

"He wanted to kill my friends and my women, of course I had to go save them!" Yang Lingchen responded helplessly.

"Let's not talk about that. Now that you've entered the eighth floor, you need to stay inside for at least 3,500 years. If you can't raise your cultivation by three minor stages within these 3,500 years, then don't even think about getting out for the rest of your life," Ye Mohan said.

"Don't worry, Senior. Not only will I break through the eighth floor, I will also be able to successfully break through the ninth floor just the same." A light of full confidence revealed itself in Yang Lingchen's eyes.

Now that the star filled with the Primordial Immortal Vein had been stored in his haotian jade space, as long as he wanted to Cultivate, there would be a continuous supply of Spiritual Qi. Therefore, he wasn't worried at all about being unable to pass the eighth and ninth floors.

"It's good that you have confidence. I look forward to your performance!" After Ye Mohan finished speaking, she disappeared from the eighth floor.

Afterward, Yang Lingchen sat cross-legged and controlled the Vast Heaven Jade with his Divine Sense, continuously channeling the Spiritual Qi from the Primordial Immortal Vein into his body.

In the following days, Yang Lingchen began to refine it frantically.

Time passed quickly like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, 3,500 years had gone by.

After these 3,500 years of Cultivation, Yang Lingchen's cultivation base rose like an unstoppable force, directly from the fourth stage of the Saint Ancestor Realm to the ninth stage of the Saint Ancestor Realm.

After passing the assessment of the eighth floor, Yang Lingchen walked toward the ninth floor.

The ninth floor of the nine profound exquisite pagoda was the final floor. After entering this floor, if one's cultivation could not be improved, it meant they would never be able to leave for their entire life.

Yang Lingchen was not worried about being unable to get out because he had only refined one percent of that Primordial Immortal Vein. As long as he continued to refine it, he had enough confidence to break through to a higher Realm.

Just as Yang Lingchen entered the ninth floor, a charming, fragrant breeze wafted into his nose.

Immediately after, Ye Mohan pounced into his arms like a long-starved lioness, her hands tightly wrapping around his neck.

"Senior...!"

Yang Lingchen was completely bewildered. Before his words could even fall, his lips were blocked by the other party, and a pair of silky, jade-like hands were already hidden on his body.

"I don't need to teach you what to do, do I?"

Ye Mohan's voice was wild with a hint of flirtatiousness.

Her eyes were as hot as fire, as if she wanted to completely burn Yang Lingchen to ashes.

Her lips were like poison, constantly eroding Yang Lingchen's rationality and making him fall into endless desire.

Facing such a wild and proactive Ye Mohan, Yang Lingchen completely lost his reason and responded frantically.

He had stayed in the seventh floor of the nine profound exquisite pagoda for 3,000 years last time, and this time he had stayed in the eighth floor for another 3,500 years. After being suppressed for so long, to be suddenly stimulated by Ye Mohan like this, it would be strange if he could hold back.
