Chapter 4284: Chapter 4284: Mission (First Update)

In that ancient war, the Yuantian Academy was severely damaged. Even if Yu Siye rebuilt it, it could never restore its former glory and was no longer qualified to supply fresh blood to the Yin Yang Divine Palace.

However, Yu Siye did not give up. He formed a Yuantian Divine Army that could still temporarily assist the Samsara Master in his conquest!

"Yuantian Divine Army?"

Ye Chen’s eyes lit up.

"Zhen Nan, take the Lord Venerate down to have a look."

Yu Siye glanced at Vice Dean Qin Zhen Nan.

"Yes, Lord Venerate, please follow me."

Qin Zhen Nan led the way respectfully; he was the sect master of the Qin Family Sword Sect, as well as Qin Wufeng’s father.

However, he did not have Qin Wufeng’s arrogant demeanor. In front of Ye Chen, he was very humble and respectful, extremely loyal.

If he knew that Qin Wufeng dared to offend Ye Chen, he would probably break Qin Wufeng’s leg!

Ye Chen nodded and followed Qin Zhen Nan.

Many core elders followed along.

Ye Chen frowned; there were over ten core elders present.

Having so many people know his identity was not good; if a traitor appeared, it would be troublesome.

Qin Zhen Nan also noticed Ye Chen’s concern and quickly said, "Lord Venerate, rest assured. These core elders have all been fed Puppet Ghost Pills. They have no intelligence of their own, purely puppets, and will definitely not betray. Your identity is known only to the Dean, me, and the sage-like old man."

"The sage-like old man has gone to the Illusion Moon Mountain Range to search for the Gengjin Rune. He won’t be back for a few days. I’ll first take you to review the Yuantian Divine Army."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen nodded, feeling much more at ease.

His identity was extraordinary, and the fewer people who knew, the better.

As Qin Zhen Nan spoke, he formed hand seals with his palms, and the barren mountain suddenly opened, revealing a crevice.

"Please."

Qin Zhen Nan made an inviting gesture and led Ye Chen inside.

Ye Chen nodded slightly and entered.

Inside the barren mountain, there was built an underground mausoleum. Presumably, the Yuantian Divine Army was hidden within this tomb.

Ye Chen glanced around and suddenly remembered a long time ago when Mo Xue Ming invited him to review the hundred-thousand Demon Army in the Divine Kingdom’s Netherworld Palace.

That was a long time ago, and that hundred-thousand Demon Army was not Ye Chen’s. But now, Ye Chen was going to review his own forces!

"Yuantian Divine Army, I wonder what kind of existence it is."

Ye Chen’s heart boiled with excitement, eager to see the Yuantian Divine Army.

Qin Zhen Nan led him deeper into the tomb.

This tomb, however, did not have a heavy atmosphere, but was filled with a surging battle intent.

"Lord Venerate, since the ancient war and our Qin family ancestor’s fall, the Qin family split into the Sword Sect and Qi Sect, fighting continuously for tens of thousands of years. Now that you have returned to the Yuantian Academy, I only hope you can reorganize my Qin family, make the Qi Sect submit, and complete the unification mission."

Qin Zhen Nan cautiously sought Ye Chen’s support as he led the way ahead.

Tens of thousands of years ago, after the Yuantian Academy was annihilated by the Emperor Abyss Palace and the Qin family ancestor fell, Yu Siye rebuilt the Yuantian Academy and found the descendants of the Qin family.

Assisting the Samsara Master was a mission etched into the Qin family’s bloodline, naturally without opposition.

However, when the Tai Chu Life-taking Sword, left by the Qin family ancestor, was passed down to the descendants of the Qin family, it split into the Sword Sect and Qi Sect.

For tens of thousands of years, neither side had emerged victorious.

Now, Qin Zhen Nan sought Ye Chen’s support.

As long as Ye Chen was willing to speak, he could unify the Qin family and resolve the division.

Ye Chen chuckled and said, "Why should the Qi Sect submit and the Sword Sect disband?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhen Nan’s expression changed, saying, "Lord Venerate, the Qi Sect is too extreme, seeing magical treasure weapons as superficial, relying only on their inner strength divine abilities, no different from beasts. What distinguishes humans is our ability to use tools. If we don’t use any tools, we might as well be beasts."

Ye Chen laughed, "Only relying on tools, neglecting one’s own Dao, is not necessarily a good thing either."

Qin Zhen Nan was at a loss for words, and said, "Lord Venerate, then your meaning is..."

Ye Chen waved his hand, not wanting to continue the dispute, and said, "Let’s wait for the sage-like old man to come back and then talk."

The sage-like old man of Yuantian Academy, Qin Xingyun, was the sect master of the Qi Sect.

How to resolve the Sword and Qi Sects’ dispute naturally required his presence.

Now, Qin Xingyun was searching for the Gengjin Rune in the Illusion Moon Mountain Range and had not yet returned.

Ye Chen estimated it wouldn’t be long before Qin Xingyun returned empty-handed.

The location of the Gengjin Rune was very secretive; without a treasure map, it was almost impossible to find.

Ye Chen didn’t believe Qin Xingyun would have such luck.

"Yes."

Qin Zhen Nan bowed his head in response, sweat dripping profusely.

His level of cultivation was much higher than Ye Chen’s.

But in front of Ye Chen, he didn’t dare to breathe heavily.

This was the suppression of bloodline.

The Qin family’s bloodline carried the imprint of the Samsara Master, destined to protect him.

This was an inherent mission!

After countless years of faded memory, perhaps the younger generation like Qin Tianyu and Qin Wufeng no longer perceived the Samsara Master’s pressure.

But for Qin Zhen Nan, Ye Chen’s bloodline pressure was still too intense, and he dared not have any rebellious thoughts.

As the two conversed, they reached the central plaza of the tomb.

A thunderous sound continuously resounded!

Here, dozens of people were practicing martial arts.

They were all clad in armor, wielding swords, spears, halberds, and emanated an entirely murderous aura.

As their weapons swung, a sharp wind surged, exhibiting ferocious divine might.

"Is this the Yuantian Divine Army?"

Ye Chen’s eyes widened, feeling that the cultivation aura of these hundreds of people was exceedingly strong, all having reached the Primordial Origin Realm!

Dozens of experts at the Primordial Origin Realm constituted such a terrifying force!

So many experts, willingly humbling themselves in the underground mausoleum, training martial arts every day, could only be achieved with a firm resolve.

Ye Chen’s heart throbbed with shock, unsure how Yu Siye accomplished nurturing dozens of Primordial Origin Realm experts, and even formed them into a regiment, creating an army.

This army’s aura was powerful enough to blot out the sky and earth. Whenever their weapons moved, even the void trembled; if they charged forth, they could surely shatter the heavens and crush thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

"Welcome, Vice Dean!"

A group of Yuantian Divine Army soldiers saw Qin Zhen Nan arriving and promptly greeted in unison, their voices booming like thunder, momentum overwhelming.

However, they didn’t pay attention to Ye Chen, seemingly unaware of his identity, assuming him to be Qin Zhen Nan’s follower.

"Lord Venerate, these people are the Yuantian Divine Army. Most are in the early-stage Primordial Origin Realm, with a few in the mid-stage Primordial Origin Realm. They should be able to assist you in your conquest."

Qin Zhen Nan lowered his voice, sealing the transmission so only Ye Chen could hear.

Ye Chen felt inwardly astonished; never daring to imagine dozens of Primordial Origin Realm experts forming an army, and now the Yuantian Academy had spent countless years crafting it.
