The Tide of History: What Unites Must Divide

[Bite!]

[Main quest completed: Go to the East Blue, meet the last of the Five Greats, tell him where Huang Rong is, and inform him that the Eastern Heretic's martial arts are so advanced that there are always higher levels to reach.]

[Quest reward obtained: Embrace Origin Force (Perfect Version)]

While Ye Zhuo was drinking, he casually glanced at the subject and immediately Embrace Origin Force technique.

In the blink of an eye, he entered a profound and unfathomable Subtlety Realm.

In the world of martial arts, there are countless extraordinary people and events.

The number of superb martial arts skills is countless.

The Xiao Feng, Xu Zhu, Dugu Qiubai, Wang Chongyang, Yideng, Hong Qigong, and Huang Yaoshi before us are all the pinnacles of their respective eras.

He only seemed at a loss when facing Ye Zhuo.

The reason for their reunion now is nothing more than the ethereal Martial Dao Primordial Spirit Realm, which even Ye Zhuo has not yet reached.

[Main quest unlocked: Set sail for the East Blue, explore various islands, and await the Return of the Condor Heroes Era]

[Quest Reward: Reverse Nine Yin (Perfect Version)]

This cultivation technique must have been practiced by Ouyang Feng in reverse Nine Yin Manual, after he was indeed deceived.

However, through a series of unexpected events, he mastered the skill, which led to both madness and a significant increase in his power.

Now that the perfect version is available, Ye Zhuo is naturally not afraid at all, seeing only the good and the bad.

Thinking of this.

Ye Zhuo stood up.

He declared with great ambition, "At best, I'm just someone who's had a bit more luck. What you admire is martial arts, not me."

This Martial Dao Longevity Art can lead to the Martial Arts Golden Core Realm; after that, I too must make that journey.

After I leave, the world will change, but what is united will eventually be divided, just like the ever-changing world.

Ye Zhuo stood up and tossed another scroll of the "Martial Arts Golden Core Formula" to the crowd.

"Let's drink until we drop tonight, and hopefully we'll meet again many years from now!"

Everyone raised their glasses and drank heartily.

After that night...

With the disappearance of the Five Greats, the First Great and Second Great of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils also vanished without a trace.

The Sword Demon Dugu Qiumo, stood guard at the port until Ye Zhuo left.

"Senior Ye is right. I admire martial arts, not him."

As they were talking.

Every blade of grass and every tree around was covered with wisps of powerful sword energy.

That's truly unbelievable.

However, it lacked the grandeur of Ye Zhuo's Ye Zhuo that split the sea.

"Yellow Old Devil, how should you and Senior Ye address each other from now on?"

Hong Qigong joked from the side.

"Each side has its own perspective."

Huang Yaoshi glanced at Hong Qigong and cursed, "Old Delia."

Ye Zhuo simply waved his hand, then transformed into a series of figures and disappeared into the East Blue.

In the blink of an eye.

Ye Zhuo wandered for several months.

We spent a long time exploring various islands before finally arriving here.

"Wano Country?"

Ye Zhuo's appearance has already altered the timeline.

Wano Country has long been a region of the Demon Kingdom.

However, the villages remained embroiled in war and constant turmoil.

Historical records later referred to it as War Villages).

"Who are you?"

A warrior in armor pointed his sword at Ye Zhuo.

"Very arrogant."

Before Ye Zhuo could say anything, Tatsumaki severed one of his arms.

"You dare to kill me? Do you even know where you are?"

The one-armed warrior roared.

"Where doesn't matter, I'm going into seclusion here, so it's mine."

Ye Zhuo said calmly.

After one night.

Ye Zhuo conquered the entire Wano Country, subjugated it once again, and transformed it into his own training ground.

If the desert is Ye Zhuo's millennia-long project of building Pyramid for himself.

So, this is one of Ye Zhuo's temporary palaces.

"From now on, let the people here work day and night to build a palace for me."

More than a hundred years.

These desolate lands far beyond the Central Plains have forgotten the leader of the Demon Cult and the creator of the Demon Kingdom.

And what about the future?

Ye Zhuo had already seen through everything and quietly cultivated the Jade Maiden Manual in the Great Sun Palace.

Inside the main hall, the maids in charge of security and other practical matters were naturally Li Qingluo, Wang Yuyan, Mu Wanqing, Mu Nianci, Huang Rong, Zhong Ling, Tatsumaki, and Fubuki.

In the eyes of later generations, Ye Zhuo could be considered a tyrant.

The Great Sun Palace required the people of an entire nation to build, while the Pyramid Mausoleum required the people of an entire continent.

It's terrifying, absolutely terrifying.

Time flows gently.

Ye Zhuo had long since lost track of how profound his realm of cultivation truly was.

The martial arts world has long since changed, and the Five Greats have become legendary powerhouses.

Their disciples, on the contrary, became the leaders and contenders for supremacy in the martial arts world.

With Ye Zhuo gone, the martial arts world actually flourished.

Instead, the world fell apart.

Ye Zhuo didn't care at all.

His palace and his mausoleum are still under construction.

It will take tens of millions of people to build it.

The constant conflicts in various regions ironically led to the emergence of even more martial arts masters.

Technology stagnated, and due to the existence of internal energy, individuals pursued power but gradually stopped valuing technological development.

The era of martial arts training for all has arrived.

The first train was also decommissioned that year, but no one cared.

After an unknown period of time, the martial arts world entered the steampunk era.

Some enemies are ancient and powerful, while in other places one can suddenly see a huge lump of iron.

This bizarre scene also spurred the emergence of generations of unconventional geniuses.

The martial arts world has once again forgotten Ye Zhuo, leaving only the incomplete name of the Five Greats.

In recent years, Zhou Botong, the Old Mischievous Boy, has risen to fame and replaced Ouyang Feng.

Great Sun Palace.

Inside the palace.

The group, who had just finished practicing the Jade Maiden Manual, were quietly recovering their health.

A beam of golden light shot into the sky.

Ye Zhuo was the one who condensed the Golden Core from the Longevity True Qi, tempered his body with the Primordial Qi, and forged his Primordial Spirit from the Three Souls and Seven Spirits!

"Martial Dao Primordial Spirit, complete!"

The golden, dazzling Ye Zhuo split into two and then merged back into one, ultimately returning to its original form.

This moment.

Ye Zhuo has truly entered the realm of Martial Dao Primordial Spirit.

You can soar through the air anytime, anywhere.

"With just a thought, I can soar thousands of miles through the air!"

The Primordial Spirit is indeed stronger than the Golden Core.

No wonder that with the Golden Core one can Longevity Dao and become a celestial being, and with the Primordial Spirit one can become Heavenly Immortal.

The difference between the two is indeed vast, like an insurmountable chasm.

Ye Zhuo returned to the main hall.

Mu Wanqing couldn't help but think, "From now on, we will have no way to defeat him."

"We couldn't win anyway. Have you forgotten that we spent a full ten years in seclusion last time we practiced the Jade Maiden Manual?"

As Wang Yuyan spoke, she recalled the scenes of her greatly increased power and improved cultivation.

"Sisters, stop talking."

Mu Nianci was so ashamed she wanted to disappear.

"Um?"

Ye Zhuo returned, glanced at them, and saw two cups smashed right in front of Ye Zhuo eyes.

It was Huang Rong and Zhong Ling.

The two were adorable and clever, and even though they were too weak to walk after practicing their skills, they would not allow Ye Zhuo to be so arrogant.

"Brother Ye, have you broken through again?"

Zhong Ling asked curiously.

"Perhaps it's the legendary Martial Dao Primordial Spirit, capable of breaking through the void."

Huang Rong had already seen through Ye Zhuo's cultivation level.

Li Qingluo, Tatsumaki, Fubuki, who were not far away, were fast asleep, seemingly the most diligent in their training.

"Probably, but it's best not to attempt to break through the air unless absolutely necessary."

Why?

Wang Yuyan tilted her head.

"That's a completely different world; you can die there easily."

Ye Zhuo couldn't very well say that there's no oxygen in space and that he'd suffocate.

Thinking back, ever since he condensed his Golden Core, he no longer needed to breathe, forming his own unique path, let alone condensing his Martial Dao Primordial Spirit.

[Bite!]

Ye Zhuo's gaze changed. After waiting for so long, the Return of the Condor Heroes Era had finally arrived.
