"What's wrong?"

Seeing Ye Chen's state seemingly return to normal, Luo Qingyi asked softly.

Initially, when Ye Chen acted out, her heart was filled with anger, but seeing tears in Ye Chen's eyes, she didn't know why, but felt as if a soft spot in her heart was touched.

No one understood Ye Chen's resilience better than Luo Qingyi.

What could possibly cause such an emotional fluctuation in Ye Chen?

Ye Chen slowly opened his eyes, looked at Luo Qingyi, and after a pause, said, "Elder Qingyi, you previously investigated my physique but never found results.

Just now, my consciousness entered a special place within me called the Origin World.

Before entering the Origin World, I saw many special scenes, like a thousand-foot White Ape, dragons and phoenixes soaring, a giant roc cutting through the starry sky, and someone wielding a spear suppressing the heavens and earth.

Then, someone invaded my Origin World.

Subsequently, someone expelled the invader and reinforced the defenses of my Origin World.

Based on this information, can it infer something about my physique?"

Ye Chen shared his experience with Luo Qingyi.

He fully trusted Luo Qingyi.

He wanted to understand what was truly going on.

Only by clarifying his physique could he further seek the truth!

After hearing Ye Chen's description, Luo Qingyi was silent for a moment and said, "Actually, when I previously tested your essence blood, I saw many magnificent visions, but I couldn't determine your physique.

A few days ago.

Through a primitive true solution, an elder at the highest level of the Sword Tomb suspected you might belong to a primitive ancient race.

This is a mysterious tribe.

No one knows their origins, and information related to them is shrouded in mystery, but this race is very strong, only appearing when a great calamity befalls the world, to reverse the tides.

The Origin World you mentioned might be a unique power among the bloodline bearers of the primitive ancient race...

Of course, it's not completely certain that you possess the bloodline of the primitive ancient race... After all, no one truly understands this bloodline."

"A primitive ancient race..." Ye Chen murmured, saying, "Since the people of the primitive ancient race only appear when a great calamity descends upon the world, then my bloodline must be of the primitive ancient race. The one who invaded my Origin World mentioned the great calamity and wanted to take my origin."

"The person who entered your Origin World to protect you should be your... mother, right?" Luo Qingyi said softly.

This was easy enough to guess.

The Ye Family's bloodline was ordinary, with nothing special, and since Ye Chen possessed the primitive ancient race's bloodline, it must be from his mother's side.

Ye Chen nodded, saying, "I don't know why she left me and my father. Even when she entered my Origin World this time, she didn't turn to look at me once.

But I know she loved my father deeply, and when I told her that my father was no longer in this world, I could sense her sorrow and pain."

"Perhaps she has her own difficulties," Luo Qingyi suggested.

"So, I must go to the Celestial Burial Sea and find her, and ask her face to face!" Ye Chen said, with the sadness in his expression dissipating, replaced with determination.

...

At the same time.

In an endless black ocean, waves towered, and dense arcs of electricity continuously crashed down.

Thunderous roars echoed endlessly.

This was the Celestial Burial Sea.

At the deepest part of the Celestial Burial Sea, around an island, the Heaven and Earth Dao twisted, transforming into a cage.

Inside the cage.

An elegant and gentle woman suddenly opened her eyes and spat out a mouthful of essence blood.

The cage created by the Heaven and Earth Dao continuously shook, and the manifested law chains began to lash at the woman!

"Miss."

A monk wearing tattered robes, with a string of black Buddhist beads hanging from his neck and holding a wine pot, rushed to the side of this cage of heavenly laws, his expression anxious and worried.

"Zhen Nan is dead, Uncle Jiu, did you know?"

The woman's voice, clad in a white dress, was filled with immense sorrow.

"Miss... I... I only found out recently..."

"Was it their doing?" The woman, enduring the punishment of the law chains, began to show a trace of resolve in her expression!

"It wasn't their doing. There are other reasons. Miss, did you enter the young master's Origin World through the connection of the Origin World?" the monk asked.

"Yes, my child has grown up, but I cannot see him, nor can I let him see me. He resents me for leaving their father and son..."

"Miss, don't worry. One day, the young master will understand your difficulties. Right now, it's crucial for you to stabilize your state of mind. Since you've contacted the young master through the Origin World, it has already triggered divine punishment. If your emotions fluctuate too strongly, the divine punishment will become even stronger..."

"Uncle Jiu, the destined one of this generation from the clan has already entered my child's Origin World. He intends to seize my child's origin. Although they haven't found my child yet, with their means, they will find him sooner or later...

Uncle Jiu, I'm begging you to help me, to take care of my child, and protect him."

"Miss, but if I leave, on your side..."

"Uncle Jiu, don't worry about me. I'm fine. It's just divine punishment; I can endure it. Zhen Nan is already gone. If something happens to my child, everything I've done would lose its meaning!

Uncle Jiu, please, I'm begging you, will you promise me?"

The monk nodded, saying, "Alright, if they lay a hand on the young master, I'll risk everything with this old body!"

...

In the underground of Demon Suppression Valley, in the Demon Cave, inside the Sword Tomb.

Ye Chen had adjusted his mindset, continuing to cultivate and organize the power within him.

Demonic Qi entered his body.

It nearly transformed him into a Human Demon.

Fortunately, the Bloodline Power provided automatic protection, allowing Ye Chen to avoid disaster.

Now, the Origin of the Bloodline once again fell silent.

However, the Demonic Qi still remained within Ye Chen's body. Yet, this Demonic Qi had become quite docile, and Ye Chen could freely manipulate it.

Under Ye Chen's control, the Demonic Qi transformed into a small, dark sphere about the size of a fingernail in his dantian.

Previously, Luo Qingyi had repeatedly warned not to let the Demonic Qi invade the dantian, but when things got out of control, the Demonic Qi rampaged and had already invaded his dantian.

Ye Chen could now perfectly control this Demonic Qi, and did not worry about being eroded by it!

Furthermore,

By merging Demonic Qi with Spiritual Power, Sword Essence, and the power of Qi Blood, the unified force resulted in a remarkable explosive power.

Ye Chen directed the Demonic Qi within him, allowing it to circulate throughout his body.

Instantly, dark demonic patterns emerged on the surface of his skin.

Moreover, his flesh, bones, and meridians were filled with Demonic Qi. Unless a top-level powerhouse from the Demon Race forcefully invaded his Sea of Consciousness World to investigate, it would be impossible to discover any trace.

Ye Chen stood up, looked at Luo Qingyi, and said, "Elder Qingyi, I'm heading out."

Luo Qingyi hummed in response and said, "Although your disguise is much better than I expected, you must not be careless."

"Alright, I will be careful."

With those words, Ye Chen turned his thoughts, left the Sword Tomb, and appeared in the valley within the Demon Cavern.

All around,

Demonic Qi churned and surged, but Ye Chen felt no discomfort.

It was known that,

Human martial artists, upon entering the passage into the Demon Cavern, would already begin to feel its suppression.

Especially inside the Demon Cavern, even legendary powerhouses of the Human faction would find their abilities greatly diminished.

Ye Chen was unaffected, due to the Demonic Qi within him.

The Demonic Qi within him, though not in large quantity, was inherently far purer compared to the Demonic Qi permeating the Demon Cavern.

After all, the Demonic Qi he refined within himself was released from the remnants of the Celestial Demon's soul after its destruction.

The Celestial Demon is the ancestor of these Demon Race!

The Demonic Qi of the Celestial Demon can even be called Celestial Demonic Qi!

Therefore,

Amidst the swirling Demonic Qi, Ye Chen felt as if he dominated everything.

He raised his head, gazing at the black 'sun' suspended in the sky.

That was the Demon Source.

The origin of all power within the Demon Cavern, the foundation of its existence.

Under Ye Chen's gaze,

The Demon Source suddenly started to tremble.

As the Demon Source vibrated, the Demonic Qi throughout the Demon Cavern boiled and became even more violent.

Ye Chen withdrew his gaze.

The Demon Source soon stabilized once more.

"Using the Celestial Demonic Qi within me as a foundation, perhaps I can hope to control that Demon Source... If I can find a way to get close to the Demon Source and destroy it, it might completely resolve the hidden threat posed by the Demon Race in the Demon Suppression Valley to the safety of Unparalleled County."

A bold idea arose in Ye Chen's mind!

Previously,

The plan was to infiltrate the Demon Race's army, proceed to the passage of the Demon Cavern for battle, and then find an opportunity to leave the Demon Cavern.

But now Ye Chen had changed his plan.

If this plan succeeded, it would mean so much!

This time,

Ye Chen first shared his plan with Luo Qingyi.

Luo Qingyi, upon hearing it, said nothing.

She knew well that whatever she said was useless, Ye Chen, this bastard, often wasn't here to discuss but simply to inform.

At this moment, Ye Chen had already chosen a random direction to advance.

From time to time, he glanced up at the Demon Source in the sky, while controlling the surge of Celestial Demonic Qi within him, causing the Demon Source above to tremble violently.

The constant vibration of the Demon Source would surely alert the Demon Race within the Demon Cavern, perhaps prompting some measures to guard the Demon Source, giving Ye Chen a chance to get close.

The reason for moving while disturbing the Demon Source was that staying at the same place and causing a commotion could quickly attract the attention of the Demon Race…

Ye Chen continued this for a full hour.

During that hour,

The Demon Source oscillated sixteen times.

As for the Demon Race's reaction, Ye Chen wasn't sure, but he continued nonetheless.

Before long,

Ye Chen noticed a group of Demon Race soldiers appearing not far off.

They were few, less than twenty, with battle scars evident on their bodies, clearly having just retreated from the Demon Cavern's passage.

The leader among them had a vertical eye on the forehead, a symbol of the Royal Race within the Demon Race, and possessed powerful energy, at the Mortal Transformation Realm!

Apart from that,

This Demon Race unit also had a large black iron cage.

Inside the cage was a person imprisoned!

"Instructor Hu!"

Ye Chen's heart shuddered when he saw a familiar figure inside the iron cage—it was Hu Wenhui, the Star Martial System Instructor from the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy!
