Ye Chen's battle with Di Lingxian, although he defeated this person, left him trapped and unable to escape.

Ye Chen always wanted to return to his original universe, but due to his lack of strength, he couldn't find the way back.

Now that Zi Han has ascended to the Heavenly Tao, can she comprehend the grand mystery and find the way back?

"Yes," Zi Han nodded. "After I ascended to the Heavenly Tao Realm, I have improved in all aspects and can now perceive the nether, finding the way back!"

"Really, that's great!" Ye Chen's face lit up with joy.

Ye Chen was desperate to return to his original universe because it was his home, where he built his legacy and had people he cared about.

"Don't get too happy yet, I haven't finished," Zi Han said.

"What's wrong?" Ye Chen was taken aback.

"The road is not easy; it might be dangerous," Zi Han said with a serious face. Wanting to return to the original universe was hard; it wasn't as easy as imagined.

"Dangerous?" Ye Chen said. "You're a strong Heavenly Tao practitioner, wielding three thousand ways. To return to the original universe, just tear through the void, what's the danger in that?"

Zi Han mentioned that the road was hard to traverse, which puzzled Ye Chen. A Heavenly Tao strong individual ripping through the void should quickly return, so what's difficult about that?

"That method no longer works!" Zi Han said. "The rules here have changed, and it is now impossible to cross the void; one must travel along an ancient road to return to the original universe!"

The Void Battlefield is an unknown world, only accessible to Transcendents.

However, Heavenly Tao practitioners far surpass Transcendents, and to enter or leave here usually only requires a thought.

But after Zi Han ascended to the Heavenly Tao, she discovered that the rules here have strengthened, seemingly having undergone some change, making it difficult even for Heavenly Tao practitioners to leave.

Nevertheless, there is always a sliver of hope. Zi Han explored the grand mystery, and in a subtle way, perceived an ancient road that could lead back to the original universe.

However, the road was excessively long and fraught with peril, which made even Zi Han's heart race and made her hesitant to step foot on it.

"Why would such a thing happen?" Ye Chen frowned. "What secrets does the Void Battlefield hold that make it so mysteriously strange to trap even Heavenly Tao practitioners?"

The Void Battlefield was full of unknowns that even sacred beings dared not delve into for fear of calamity.

However, Heavenly Tao practitioners are nearly invincible, how can they encounter calamity out of nowhere? What kind of place is this, really!

"Ye Chen, have you ascended to the Heavenly Tao?" Qing Ge asked.

Zi Han painted such a serious picture of things that it cast a shadow over their hearts, making them wary of setting foot on that ancient road lightly.

Still, if they all became Heavenly Tao practitioners, then combined strength would be enough to crush any danger.

Qing Ge was just a step away from the Heavenly Tao Realm, able to break through at any time.

But what of Ye Chen's realm; has he ascended to the Heavenly Tao?

"No," Ye Chen said. "However, I am very close to the Heavenly Tao, just one opportunity away from a breakthrough."

After Dual Cultivation with Qing Ge, and then followed by Dual Cultivation with Zi Han, Ye Chen's cultivation had reached its peak.

Ye Chen had a feeling that he was very close to the Heavenly Tao, within reach.

However, the realm was too mysterious; for Ye Chen to truly step in, it was probably not that simple.

"Then let's cultivate in place, and when we ascend to the Heavenly Tao, we'll take the ancient road," Qing Ge said.

According to Zi Han, the ancient road was perilous, not suitable for anyone not of Heavenly Tao. Therefore, it was best to be fully prepared before stepping onto that ancient road.

Moreover, Qing Ge still wanted revenge; Ye Chen was hard for her to bear malice against, but there was still Yu Jizi.

It was Yu Jizi who captured her back then, turning her into a cultivation tool, manipulating her entire life—this grudge must be avenged!

However, Yu Jizi was extremely powerful, an invincible Heavenly Tao practitioner, so for Qing Ge to seek revenge, she also needed to touch that realm.

"Alright, then let's wait a bit, ascend to the Heavenly Tao, and then embark on the journey back."

Ye Chen was unaware of Qing Ge's thoughts; he just wanted to be fully prepared before returning to his original universe.

...

Day by day passed.

Ye Chen's foundation was deep enough, often impacting the Heavenly Tao Realm, and although he hadn't truly ascended, through several attempts, he gained much enlightenment.

Qing Ge was also constantly impacting the Heavenly Tao, unwilling to fall behind Ye Chen.

Zi Han, already a Heavenly Tao practitioner, spent her days leisurely, having nothing to do besides accompany Ye Chen at night.

"Ye Chen, did Qing Ge really accept you and become your woman?"

Inside the cave, Zi Han looked at Ye Chen and asked, her face full of resentment.

They had been cultivating here for quite some time, and the affair between Ye Chen and Qing Ge naturally couldn't be hidden from Zi Han.

Yet, Zi Han had been somewhat unclear about when they got together, with her completely unaware.

"Things between Qing Ge and me happened even before you, so don't be hostile towards her anymore; after all, we are family, and such animosity benefits no one."

After such a long time, Ye Chen had achieved his wish, making both women completely loyal without any rebellious thoughts.

Therefore, concerning his affairs with Qing Ge, Ye Chen wasn't afraid to tell Zi Han.

"You philanderer, you had me, yet still wanted to involve Qing Ge!"

As Ye Chen revealed everything, it sparked Zi Han's displeasure, completely overturning her jealousy.

"Actually, Qing Ge is quite pitiable, though she was born to be a cultivation tool, she always wanted to break free and return to freedom," Ye Chen said.

"Hmph, while I'm lying in your arms, you're speaking for Qing Ge, aren't you afraid I'll be unhappy?" Zi Han pouted in jealousy.

Qing Ge's status as a cultivation tool and her struggles were known to Zi Han. But even if Qing Ge was pitiful, she couldn't steal her man!

"Silly girl!" Ye Chen smiled cheerfully.

Though Zi Han was a Heavenly Tao practitioner, surpassing Ye Chen in cultivation, before Ye Chen, she acted as a little woman without a rebellious bone in her body.

This was influenced by the Mysterious Maiden Skill and the power of love, trapping Zi Han deeply, unable to extricate herself.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a vast aura emerged, permeating with the heaviness of the Heavenly Tao—it seemed someone had ascended to the Heavenly Tao.

"Qing Ge broke through!" Zi Han exclaimed.

"Yes!" Ye Chen nodded.

Qing Ge's cultivation was mighty, but her heart harbored a demon, delaying her breakthrough.

Now, having been claimed by Ye Chen, she gradually accepted, and as barriers dissolved, naturally, she ascended to the Heavenly Tao.

"You truly are fortunate to have two Heavenly Tao wives; anyone would be envious," Zi Han said, tinged with jealousy.

"Haha," Ye Chen laughed awkwardly. "You both ascended to the Heavenly Tao, all surpassing me, making me quite embarrassed!"

Having two Heavenly Tao wives was indeed enviable, but Ye Chen, being a man, felt quite ashamed being surpassed by two women.

"You and Qing Ge shouldn't come at night anymore; if I don't ascend to the Heavenly Tao Realm soon, I'd be too embarrassed to face you!"

For the sake of ascending to the Heavenly Tao Realm, Ye Chen resolved not to have his wives accompany him at night, demonstrating considerable determination.

Yet, one day passed, two days passed, three days passed, a year passed... and Ye Chen still hadn't ascended.

Just then, the Void Battlefield erupted with a vast aura, sweeping through everything, startling all the living beings.

"The ancient road has opened!"

Both Qing Ge and Zi Han were startled and came to Ye Chen's retreat location to inform him that the ancient road had opened.

A peerless warrior had stepped onto the ancient road, unveiling that secret land, disturbing the Void Battlefield.
