The Protagonist Is Born?
Ji Yuanqing's words sparked all sorts of speculations among the crowd, leading to various theories about Li Fan's identity.
"Since the two alliance leaders were able to issue a decree to that senior, they must surely recognize that senior. That's why I took the liberty of returning—I truly... truly wish to pay my respects to that senior!"
His words were full of sincerity.
"We can't make a decision on this matter ourselves; we need to ask that senior for their opinion..."
Huo Ling'er spoke up, saying, "Please wait a moment. We will inform you when the senior is willing to see you..."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuanqing's expression turned somewhat anxious, and he said:
"You two alliance leaders may not know this, but according to my ancestors' records, once the various fragmented worlds of the First Heavenly Realm merge, the things hidden within those fragmented worlds will attract each other, causing tremendous upheavals. If this senior doesn't pay attention in time, it could lead to extremely terrifying consequences..."
"To be honest with you two alliance leaders, before I came to Profound Heaven Prefecture, there were already unusual occurrences in several forbidden areas of Yellow Heaven Prefecture..."
Upon hearing this, Huo Ling'er and Mu Qianning exchanged a glance.
At this moment, the Yuanyang Holy Lord suddenly spoke up, saying, "How about this, Brother Ji, please accept this communication crystal. If Senior Li replies, we will inform you immediately."
"Also, you can write down the coordinates of the Teleportation Array of the Taiyan Holy Land. If there is any emergency, you can contact them quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuanqing could only sigh deeply and say:
"Well, in that case, we can only hope that this senior will pay attention to Yellow Heaven Prefecture's matter soon, otherwise... according to the records left by our ancestors, he might cause a huge mess..."
After saying this, he accepted the communication crystal, noted down the coordinates of the Teleportation Array of the Taiyan Holy Land, and also left the coordinates of the Teleportation Array of Yellow Heaven Prefecture, before turning around.
"That's right!"
At this moment, Ji Yuanqing suddenly slapped his forehead and turned around, saying:
"I almost forgot, Alliance Leaders. According to the records left by our ancestors, Yellow Heaven Prefecture holds a terrifying treasure, waiting for a destined person in the world. If possible, would you two please go and visit it?"
"Since you two have gained the favor of that senior, you're guaranteed to obtain that legendary treasure, even if not the best!"
After saying that, he left.
After he left, the people in the main hall all wore thoughtful expressions.
"Brother Yuan Yang, do you have doubts about Ji Yuanqing?"
The Holy Lord Lingchao spoke.
The Yuanyang Holy Lord shook his head and said, "No, I not only do not doubt what he said, but I believe it completely!"
Upon hearing this, the group was all taken aback.
"In that case, Brother Yuan Yang, why let him leave?"
The Yuanyang Holy Lord said, "Everyone, think about it. The Profound Heaven Realm devoured the Hundred Realms and merged to form the Heavenly Realm. Who orchestrated such a massive event?"
"It is indeed Senior Li's work!"
He said with emotion, "What kind of person Senior Li? How could he not know the relationship between the Profound Heaven Realm and the First Heavenly Realm? The fact that he named the new world the Heaven Realm is proof enough."
"In that case, he must have known about Yellow Heaven Prefecture's affairs long ago."
"If we take Ji Yuanqing to see him, I'm afraid it will displease Senior Li!"
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized what was going on!
That explanation makes perfect sense.
"Brother Yuan Yang's consideration is indeed thorough!"
"Yes, we need to report to Senior Li first and see Senior Li opinion is before we act."
"However, we cannot ignore what Ji Yuanqing said about the major event that will occur in Yellow Heaven Prefecture..."
After a few people spoke, their gazes eventually fell on Mu Qianning and Huo Ling'er.
Mu Qianning immediately said, "Let's go see Senior Li right now!"
News of the Four Great Alliances' siege of Profound Heaven Prefecture spread rapidly throughout the entire Heavenly Realm as the Four Great Alliances retreated!
The world was shocked.
"What? The Four Great Alliances joined forces and still suffered a crushing defeat?"
"Not only that, two Golden Immortals also died!"
"It is said that an unparalleled being in the Southern Domain has issued a decree... This is truly terrifying!"
The entire heavens trembled.
Profound Heaven Prefecture has attracted everyone's attention!
And at this moment.
The Northern Frontier of the Celestial Realm!
After the Yellow Heaven Realm was merged, it was located in this land and became Yellow Heaven Prefecture.
Although Yellow Heaven Prefecture is not as vast as the Profound Character Realm, it is mountainous with pristine vegetation and a wild, untamed atmosphere!
This land is also home to various primitive ferocious beasts.
At this moment, at the foot of a vast mountain range, in a small town.
"Nalan Yanran, how could you treat me like this!"
A young man, his face filled with resentment!
He stood in a small valley, desperately punching a wire tree, his hands already stained with blood.
"You have betrayed me, Xiao Yan, today. Who knows what tomorrow will bring upon you my trembling?!"
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river; never underestimate a young man's potential!"
He spoke angrily.
He was originally the eldest son of the Xiao Family, a small Lineage in Qingyan City.
However, because of his inferior Spirit Root, he was considered a waste.
Just one day earlier, Nalan Yanran, the noblewoman of the Nalan Family who had been betrothed to him since childhood, actually came to his door to break off the engagement!
He was publicly humiliated and forced to sign a letter announcing the annulment of the engagement.
At this moment, his heart was filled with anger!
Discontent with fate!
Then he went to the nearby stream and washed his hands.
But just as he was washing his hands, he suddenly felt as if he had scooped something up from the stream.
He picked it up and took a look; it was actually a piece of finger bone!
The finger bones were crystal clear and snow-white!
"Huh? What's this...?"
Xiao Yan was puzzled.
But in the next instant, the finger bone suddenly disappeared from his palm!
He clearly felt that there was a hidden bone in his hand!
"Ah... this?"
"No? What the hell are you? What the hell are you?"
Xiao Yan spoke in shock.
At this moment, an aged voice resounded from within. "A ghost? I am... Yang Miechen, the 'First Immortal General' of the Immortal Realm...!"
The First Immortal General of the Immortal Realm?
Xiao Yan was stunned, and exclaimed in shock, "You are... an existence from the Immortal Realm?"
"Certainly..."
An aged voice murmured from within, "Ten thousand years have passed... Why have I awakened? Could it be that thing is about to emerge again?"
Then came a long silence, after which the aged voice finally spoke:
"Kid, do you want to change your destiny? Do you want to become the protagonist of this world?"
"Since we are destined to meet today, I, the King, will bestow upon you good fortune!"
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then he instantly became excited!
"Mr. Yang... what can you do to help me?"
He asked, his voice trembling.
"I'll help you conquer this world!"
From within his body, an aged voice said indifferently, "Your constitution is too weak. I will first bestow upon you a gift!"
The next moment, Xiao Yan trembled all over as a terrifying spiritual force cleansed his body!
His whole body glowed, and his cultivation level soared, breaking through from the previously difficult Ninth Heaven of Qi Refining directly to the Golden Core Realm!
"I... I've broken through to the Golden Core Realm?!"
Xiao Yan was shocked; it was utterly unbelievable!
That's an incredible leap!
Now, he can stand shoulder to shoulder with some of the family heads in Qingyan City!
"Golden Core? As insignificant as an ant. In less than a month, I'll make you an immortal, an ancestor, and the ruler of this realm!"
The words of "First Immortal General" Yang Miechen echoed within his body.
At this moment, Xiao Yan had no more doubts and was moved to tears, saying, "Thank you so much, senior! Thank you so much, senior!"
He clenched his fists, looked up at the sky, and tears welled up in his eyes!
"Is this... this my good fortune?"
"I, Xiao Yan, am the protagonist of this world!"
"Nalan Yanran, you just wait, the era of Xiao Yan has arrived!"
He shouted!
"Don't get too cocky. If you want to become an immortal, you still have to listen to me!"
The "First Immortal General" within the body continued to speak.
"Please give your instructions, Xiao Yan. I will do my best!" At this moment, Xiao Yan completely trusted this "First Immortal General".
He firmly believed that this was his magic touch, and that he was the one and only protagonist in this world!
"Follow the stream upstream, and you'll find an ancient battlefield where a supreme treasure is buried. Obtain that treasure, and you will dominate this world...!"
Yang Miechen's words rang out.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was immediately stunned and said, "Old Yang... you mean go upstream along the stream?"
"That looks like... the Immortal Burial Mountain Range!"
Immortal Burial Mountain Range!
That's a forbidden area in the Yellow Heaven Realm!
"The Immortal Burial Mountain Range... that name is quite fitting, for countless immortals are indeed buried there..."
Yang Miechen chuckled coldly a few times and said, "Rest assured, I am one of those who came from there. With me here, you have nothing to fear!"
"Once you obtain what's within, I will teach you the method of fusing the myriad realms, allowing this realm to merge with other lower realms. Keep searching, and if you truly gather all the necessary items, few in the Immortal Realm will be your match!"
He remained completely calm!
However, Xiao Yan Shi Dao, "Elder Yang... the Yellow Heaven Realm merged with other lower realms a month ago!"
"This new great world is now called 'Celestial Realm'!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Miechen within him was instantly shocked and exclaimed, "What? This realm has already merged with other worlds? And is called the Celestial Realm?"
"That's impossible!"
He lost his composure, and his words even carried a hint of fear!
"It's true... The center of the celestial realm is now Profound Heaven Prefecture. A few days ago, the upper echelons of Yellow Heaven Prefecture all joined the 'Profound Character Alliance' to conquer Profound Heaven Prefecture..."
Xiao Yan continued to explain.
Yang Miechen remained silent for a very long time.
"It seems there are others in this world who awakened before me..."
"He has already started looking for those things..."
"No, we absolutely cannot let them get there first!"
Yang Miechen murmured, then immediately said:
"Prepare to proceed to the Immortal Burial Mountain Range immediately!!"
