Youth in the Jade Stone

Heavenly Desolation Continent.

Central Domain, Divine Firmament Sacred Land.

Inside an ancient and simple grand hall.

A middle-aged man looked at a broken jade token in his hand, his eyes filled with helplessness.

"The year I became Holy Master, you flew into a rage and switched to the demonic path, leaving Divine Firmament Sacred Land..."

At this point, the middle-aged man sighed, and a hint of icy killing intent flickered in his helpless gaze.

"But don't worry, Brother will avenge you."

With that, the middle-aged man vanished from the hall. His target was the Heavenly Machine Pavilion.

This was because he didn't know who had killed his own younger brother.

However, anyone who could kill a Great Sage was bound to be extraordinary.

Inside a tall tower in the Central Domain, in a simple room.

An old man with white hair and beard sat cross-legged, his eyes tightly shut.

Just then, he seemed to sense something, and his tightly shut eyes slowly opened.

Reflected in his cloudy yet profound eyes was a middle-aged man in a purple-gold brocade robe.

"Eastern Holy Master, it's a rare visit."

"Elder Chen, I've troubled you this time because I have an important matter."

Looking at the old man before him, Dongfang Zhentian's tone was slightly respectful.

"Eastern Holy Master, you're here for your brother, Dongfang Wuxin, aren't you?"

Chen Daoxuan saw through Dongfang Zhentian's intentions in one sentence.

Upon hearing this, a look of shock appeared in Dongfang Zhentian's eyes, then he seemed to recall something and his expression calmed down.

"As expected of Elder Chen, that's precisely why."

"No need to ask. If you seek revenge, it's a path of certain death."

Chen Daoxuan spoke again, a sentence that made Dongfang Zhentian's pupils contract and his body tremble involuntarily.

He fell silent, because he knew Chen Daoxuan was telling the truth.

At this moment, Dongfang Zhentian was filled with confusion and shock.

He couldn't understand what kind of existence could make it a path of certain death even for him.

He was, after all, the Lord of a Sacred Land in the Central Domain, and his strength was far greater than Xuanyuan Chen of the Heavenly Extremity Sacred Land.

Even in the entire Central Domain, he was among the very top tier.

"Did an Emperor-level Force deploy their foundation?"

Emperor-level Forces were those that had produced an Emperor Realm expert in the past.

In Dongfang Zhentian's opinion, if it weren't for something like that, it would be impossible for him to face a path of certain death.

Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan shook his head.

"I cannot calculate it."

As soon as he said this, Dongfang Zhentian was once again shocked.

"How is that possible!"

Chen Daoxuan's words made the dignified Lord of a Sacred Land lose his composure.

"Nothing is impossible. There are always heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people."

After listening to Chen Daoxuan's words, Dongfang Zhentian fell silent again.

After a long while, he finally managed to utter a sentence: "Elder Chen, I'll take my leave."

After Dongfang Zhentian left, Chen Daoxuan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura instantly weakening.

"What kind of existence is it that caused such a strong backlash just by starting the calculation..."

For the first time, bewilderment and shock appeared in Chen Daoxuan's eyes.

Central Domain, Forbidden Abyss.

As the most mysterious forbidden land on the Heavenly Desolation Continent, the Forbidden Abyss was a place all powerhouses were unwilling to set foot in.

However, at this moment, two figures in white robes had arrived at the deepest part of the Forbidden Abyss.

In the pitch-black depths of the Forbidden Abyss, Ye Chang'an and Shangguan Shi walked leisurely through the void.

Countless surrounding vengeful spirits hid far away, their eyes filled with panic as they looked at Ye Chang'an and the other man.

Many of these vengeful spirits had reached the peak of the Great Sage realm, and some were even Half-step Emperor Realm.

Any one of them could walk all over the Heavenly Desolation Continent.

Yet now, countless death spirits found themselves scrambling to avoid Ye Chang'an and the other man.

If you can't find the book by its title, try searching for the author. They might have just changed their name!

Every time they recalled the scene they had just witnessed, they felt a chill.

Those two men had left an indelible shadow in their hearts.

As they ventured deeper, Ye Chang'an and the other man saw a light appear ahead.

In this endless, profound darkness, that glimmer of light stood out remarkably.

"Hall Master, the aura emanating from that light is no simple matter."

"Mm, it seems we've struck gold."

Seeing this, the two men quickened their pace.

Just as they reached the source of the light, they saw a Jade Stone, as tall as a person, shining brightly. Within the Jade Stone was a young boy who looked no older than eleven or twelve.

Beside the Jade Stone stood dozens of death spirits, each of them having reached the Emperor Realm.

However, at this moment, they were trembling and staring at Ye Chang'an and the other man, just like the death spirits before.

Sensing the pure yang energy radiating from the Jade Stone, Ye Chang'an immediately questioned the system.

"System, what is this? Why is there a person inside?"

[This is a Yang Extreme Stone, used to nurture an Innate Divine Saint. It has been gestating for over a million years. The time was not yet up, but the Host can use their origin power to open the Yang Extreme Stone.]

[Hint: The boy in the Yang Extreme Stone can be taken into the Primordial Divine Hall.]

Heeding the system's words, Ye Chang'an immediately complied.

Soon, the Jade Stone gradually dissipated, and the boy inside stood naked before the two men.

He slowly opened his eyes.

That gaze reminded Ye Chang'an of a certain group from his past life. So pure, and a little vacant.

"Emperor Realm first level. Barely passable, I suppose."

Sensing the boy's cultivation, Ye Chang'an nodded, reasonably satisfied.

If the boy truly looked only eleven or twelve, Ye Chang'an would have been astonished.

But from the system, Ye Chang'an learned information about the boy.

He merely looked young.

Then, Ye Chang'an waved his hand, and a golden brocade robe appeared on the boy.

The boy seemed unfazed by this.

"Hmm? May I ask where this is? And could you tell me who you two are?"

Looking at Ye Chang'an and the other man, the boy asked politely.

Seeing this, Ye Chang'an smiled and said gently, "I am the Hall Master of the Primordial Divine Hall. Would you like to join the Primordial Divine Hall?"

"Primordial Divine Hall? What is that?"

The boy was confused.

"It's a powerful faction. Joining us will protect you."

"Sounds great. Um... can I eat it?"

Ye Chang'an: ...

Shangguan Shi: ...

[Recommendation: Host should either use forceful methods or entice with resources. Innate Divine Saints are easily attracted and tempted by high-level resources.]

Hearing this, Ye Chang'an chose the latter.

There was no other reason than it was time to show off his resources and wealth.

A golden Jade Stone appeared in Ye Chang'an's hand.

Before Ye Chang'an could speak, the boy appeared in front of him, his eyes fixed intently on the golden Jade Stone.

"Do you want it?"

As soon as Ye Chang'an asked, the boy nodded vigorously.

"The Primordial Divine Hall has plenty."

"I'll go. I like the Primordial Divine Hall."

The moment the boy finished speaking, a phantom image of a divine hall was imprinted onto the boy's soul.

This was naturally done by the system.

Since he was newly recruited, some measures needed to be taken.

The rules that originally applied to Shangguan Shi and the others were now also applied to the boy.

"What's your name?"

Ye Chang'an suddenly remembered he didn't know the boy's name.

Hearing this, the boy shook his head while absorbing the Jade Stone Ye Chang'an had given him.

Clearly, he didn't have a name, or at least not one in his memory.

"Then I'll give you a name. From now on, you'll be called Yang Yi."
