Ye Xuan arrives at the Chaoyuan Heavenly Pond, a place of immense spiritual energy. He waits for two days, reminiscing about his past with Changxi and contemplating betrayal. When his expected visitors do not appear, Ye Xuan destroys the heavenly pond, releasing its energy back into Chaoyuan Heaven.

The celestial pool collapsed.

Chaoyuan Heaven was immensely shaken.

Within the Chaoyuan Heavenly Alliance, the unparalleled figures seated on both sides were originally debating the issue of Ye Xuan entering the Heavenly Domain.

Suddenly, they all sharply turned their gaze beyond the alliance.

That was the direction of the celestial pool.

"What’s going on?"

A powerful figure murmured, feeling puzzled.

They clearly felt an extraordinary force flooding through the entire Chaoyuan Heaven at this moment.

Causing the spiritual energy throughout Chaoyuan Heaven to abruptly surge forth.

"This feeling, it’s as if we are amidst the other thirty-two heavens!"

A strong figure let out a light sigh.

The Thirty-Three Heavens of the Heavenly Domain.

Everyone knew, Chaoyuan Heaven, as the lowest of the Thirty-Three Heavens, was also the closest one to the Lower Realm.

In some sense, the spiritual energy level of Chaoyuan Heaven was only much stronger than that of the Lower Realm.

But compared to the other thirty-two heavens, it was somewhat humble.

The major forces in Chaoyuan Heaven, in truth, would only count as first-rate powers in the other thirty-two heavens.

Of course, this did not include those hidden Longevity Families.

Because such existences do not partake in mundane disputes.

"News has come back, it’s Ye Xuan!"

"Ye Xuan broke the celestial pool!"

In no time, the extraordinary figures of the Chaoyuan Heavenly Alliance had reported back the situation at the celestial pool.

Upon hearing this news, everyone fell silent.

Ye Xuan’s actions.

Who could stop him?

This person, as the first unparalleled existence to walk out of the Emperor Road, is not even an equal adversary for extraordinary figures below the Quasi-Emperor Realm, let alone for them.

Though they all claimed to be invincible Great Saints.

Yet, power is hierarchical.

Facing those below the Great Saint Realm.

They are like heaven!

But against a monster like Ye Xuan, they are nothing.

"What does the higher-ups say?"

In the Heavenly Hall of the alliance, an elderly man with long eyebrows seated in the void spoke softly with closed eyes.

The host of this meeting was none other than the Immortal Great Saint from the Heavenly Demon Sea. Upon hearing this elder’s inquiry, the Immortal Great Saint dared not slight him and cupped his hands, saying, "Senior Liu, the message from above is to wait and see what Ye Xuan intends to do."

The old man addressed as Senior Liu was one of Chaoyuan Heaven’s overlords, the patriarch of the Jue Tian Sect, with another identity.

This person was from the Liu Family of the Red Sun River.

Of course.

The Liu Family of the Red Sun River was exterminated in the Lower Realm by Qin Daoshen with a single blade, never to rise again.

This, the elder from the Liu Family naturally knew.

Thus, he harbored a bit of hatred towards Ye Xuan.

But this hatred, he would never reveal.

Currently, Ye Xuan was at the zenith of his fame.

Who in all heavens and myriads of worlds would dare provoke him?

Unless the Double Emperors or an Emperor General stepped in to suppress him.

Otherwise, harboring hatred towards him was tantamount to courting death!

"Wait?"

Upon hearing this, the elder from the Liu Family slowly opened his eyes, speaking indifferently, "Wait until he overthrows Chaoyuan Heaven? Now that the celestial pool has been shattered by him, what on earth is he trying to do?"

The underlying anger in the Liu Family elder’s words plunged the Heavenly Hall into silence again.

Then a light chuckle arose.

Across from the Liu Family elder, amidst the chaos, a seductive woman was leaning languorously, watching the elder with a playful smile, speaking softly, "Since Elder Liu is so dissatisfied with this Young Master Ye, why not have Elder Liu go and talk to Young Master Ye?"

"After all, I heard that your original family in the Lower Realm was wiped out by this Young Master Ye. How about taking revenge?"

Upon hearing these words, the Liu Family elder did not get angry but instead chuckled at the seductive woman, saying lightly, "Though I hail from the Liu Family, ever since I joined the Jue Tian Sect, I have severed my karmic ties with the Liu Family. Where is the talk of revenge?"

"What? Has your Qingsi Sect grown fond of Ye Xuan?"

"Don’t forget the orders from above. This person is an enemy of the Double Emperors. Befriending him is opposing the Double Emperors. Even though your Qingsi Sect is a Great Emperor Immortal Sect, do you really think you can stand against the Double Emperors?"

These words made the seductive woman burst into cheerful laughter, "Elder Liu, don’t get agitated. I was just speaking off the cuff."

"After all, everyone here understands the matter."

"Isn’t that right, fellow colleagues?"

The seductive woman glanced around at the others in the hall.

Wherever her gaze landed, no one dared meet her eyes.

They all knew, this sultry woman from the Qingsi Sect, known as the Serpent Beauty, despite her alluring charm, hid venomous fangs.

One careless move and she could drain the life out of them.

This wasn’t an uncommon occurrence in Chaoyuan Heaven.

In this Heavenly Hall of the alliance, the highest cultivation levels were held by these two, both having reached the Fourth Level of the Great Saint Realm.

The majority of others were in the First or Second Layer.

Thus, in the confrontation between these two, others simply watched with detached interest, choosing not to participate.

Therefore, this meeting about Ye Xuan convened by the alliance ended without any significant outcome.

However, none of the alliance members found this difficult to accept.

The alliance itself was a superficial organization, established under the decree of the Double Emperors.

Within the alliance, factions were rampant, making unity impossible.

Ye Xuan’s issue was indeed too tricky.

Whoever wishes to handle it, go ahead.

At least it wasn’t their task.

If they went, it would be courting death.

If not for Chaoyuan Heaven being the first layer of the Thirty-Three Heavens, this matter wouldn’t even be their concern.

Yet no one expected that Ye Xuan, having come to Chaoyuan Heaven, didn’t proceed upwards but remained there.

This indeed surprised everyone.

At the same time.

The original location of the Chaoyuan Heavenly Pool.

After Ye Xuan kicked and shattered the heavenly pool, he slowly descended onto the ground.

Endless spiritual energy continued to pour into Ye Xuan’s body.

No one knew that the most terrifying place in Chaoyuan Heaven was this celestial pool.

Too much power had accumulated within this pool.

This was something Ye Xuan had mentioned to Changxi.

But he had also told Changxi that the power contained within this heavenly pool was unbearable, and not even someone who became a Great Emperor might withstand it.

Perhaps this was the reason Changxi had never touched the heavenly pool.

Another point was, without Ye Xuan.

No one could move the heavenly pool.

This time, Ye Xuan voluntarily broke the celestial pool, releasing the power within.

He did not absorb it all but scattered most of the power back into Chaoyuan Heaven.

Yet even so.

Boom!

A terrifying explosion resounded.

The aura from Ye Xuan’s body ascended unceasingly, as if without limit.

Directly pulling the Nine Transitions Great Sage to the very pinnacle.

As if in the next moment, he would step into the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

Ye Xuan exhaled slowly, pressing down the raging power, his eyes indifferent as he calmly said, "Follow me to Emperor Mu’s Heaven."
