147: The Strange Phenomenon of the Idle God Emperor Scripture

The seven-colored divine light, like living flowing clouds, gently flowed around the thatched cottage, illuminating this already spiritual and beautiful peak of the divine mountain as if it were a fairyland. The divine spiritual Qi, so rich it almost condensed into tangible liquid droplets, made every breath feel like inhaling the most fundamental essence of heaven and earth, causing the Soul to cheer with joy, feeling as if it were floating among immortals.

Inside the cottage, it was a world unto itself.

The seemingly simple thatched walls and roof actually naturally isolated all the clamor and prying eyes from the outside world, and even seemed to contain some mysterious great power that could gather and purify the most pristine Dao rhythm between this heaven and earth!

Just by meditating here, Lin Ye felt that his speed of comprehending the Law was more than a hundred times faster than outside!

This was the terrifying aspect of the place where a God Emperor once comprehended the Dao!

At this moment, Lin Ye sat cross-legged on the seemingly ordinary stone bed, his pair of dark eyes, half divine and half demonic, fixedly locked onto the ancient Jade Slip suspended before him, which was entirely Chaos-colored and seemed to contain the heaviness of the entire Universe!

The Cang Xuan God Emperor Scripture!

He slowly exhaled a turbid breath, which surprisingly contained streaks of golden light points as brilliant as stars! That was the majestic Divine Power of his Middle Stage Demigod cultivation, an anomaly produced by its self-operation and purification under the nourishment of this vast Dao rhythm!

His face had long lost any trace of hesitation or struggle.

All that remained was a madness and decisiveness sufficient to drag all the gods and buddhas of the heavens into an abyss!

"Risk of detection... extremely high." "A situation of certain death..."

Lin Ye silently chewed on the System's crimson warning, full of deathly aura, in his heart, but a curve of infinite confidence and dominance slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth!

"Risk?"

"I, Lin Ye, have never... feared it on this journey?!"

"If one wishes to reach the peak and overlook all realms, how can one... be timid and indecisive?!"

"System!"

He let out a hysterical, silent roar in his heart!

"Give—me—the—hang—up!!!"

Command confirmed!

Final confirmation! The God Emperor-level Cultivation Technique, Cang Xuan God Emperor Scripture, has been added to the hang-up list!

Hang-up task initiated!!!

Boom—!!!!!!!!!!

At that moment!

Lin Ye's vast Dantian Qi Sea, at this instant, poured wildly into the dark golden "prison suppressing divine spark" that was still only in its embryonic form, suspended in the center of his Qi Sea, like floodgates opening!

And that divine spark, which had only been quietly rotating, after receiving this immense Divine Power, burst out with a dazzling divine light capable of illuminating the entire world, with a "hum," as if an supreme treasure had been completely activated!

Within the divine light, the first level of the Cang Xuan God Emperor Scripture's Mind-Cultivation Technique, just recorded by the System and filled with endless majesty and profound aura, seemed to come alive, transforming into billions of golden divine characters full of the great Dao's Profound Truths, surging madly into the depths of his Divine Soul! They began an intensely violent collision and Fusion with the Profound Truth of the fourth level of his God-Demon Prison Suppressing Body, "Wielding Yin and Yang," which was already imprinted in his Soul!

"Chi la la la—"

Lin Ye only felt as if his entire Divine Soul had been instantly thrown into a terrifying furnace composed of endless lightning and flames!

Two completely different, yet equally domineering, supreme Dao rhythms fiercely tore, collided, and annihilated within the Origin of his Divine Soul!

That pain was tens of thousands of times more intense than when he had previously condensed his divine spark! It felt as if his Soul was about to be completely... torn apart! Crushed!

"Uh ah—!!!"

Even Lin Ye's will, which had been tempered as firm as a rock by the God-Demon Prison Suppressing Body, could not help but let out an uncontrollable groan of pain!

The blood instantly drained from his originally demonic and handsome face! It became paler than a corpse! Large beads of sweat, like raindrops, rolled down his forehead! His whole body trembled violently, as if being gnawed at by ten thousand ants!

However, amidst this extreme pain, an even more vast, more... sacred, peculiar power, like the first ray of dawn in the dark night, quietly emerged from the deepest part of his soon-to-collapse Divine Soul Origin...

That was a... completely different power!

It was no longer the "Divine Demon Power" full of destruction and rebirth that it had been before.

Nor was it the "Cang Xuan Divine Power" from the Cang Xuan God Emperor Scripture, which was full of supreme majesty and control.

Instead, it was... a kind of Chaos Power that seemed to transcend these two powers, even more ancient, and more... fundamental!

That power appeared as a faint, yet seemingly as vast as the entire Universe, hazy... gray color.

As soon as it appeared, like a supreme emperor, it instantly suppressed the two domineering powers that were still fiercely colliding and tearing!

Immediately after, like the gentlest stream, it slowly flowed through Lin Ye's Divine Soul Origin, which was already covered with cracks, gradually re-adhering and repairing the fragments that were on the verge of collapsing! It even... made them more condensed! More... immortal!

And within his Dantian Qi Sea, the "prison suppressing divine spark," which had only been emitting a dark golden light, seemed to be infused with a Soul under the nourishment of this Chaos Power!

The three mysterious Dao patterns on it, representing "slaughter," "devouring," and "shadow," seemed to come alive, slowly flowing and intertwining! Finally, they vaguely condensed into a fourth... even more blurred, yet seemingly containing the meaning of "Emperor," new Dao pattern prototype!

"This... this is... Emperor Power?!"

Lin Ye's heart pounded violently due to this sudden, earth-shattering anomaly that could overturn all his perceptions!

He never expected that his seemingly "suicidal" mad act would actually... by a strange twist of fate, allow him to prematurely touch the Origin Power that, according to legend, only God Emperor-level experts could control?!

Although, it was only a trace.

Although, the birth of this trace of power almost drained nearly half of his Origin Divine Power and Divine Soul Power!

But, this was already... a qualitative leap!

"Hahahaha... hahahaha!"

Lin Ye could no longer suppress the ecstasy in his heart and burst into loud laughter! The laughter was full of endless joy and... heroism!

However, he did not know.

At the very moment that faint trace of "Emperor Power" was born within him, and at the very moment the fourth "Emperor Mark" prototype began to condense on his "prison suppressing divine spark"!

In the very center of Tianxuan City, hundreds of millions of miles away from Tianshu Peak! At the very top of the ten-thousand-zhang-tall god ascension tower!

Within that vast divine hall, perpetually enveloped by endless starlight, seemingly independent of this heaven and earth!

A middle-aged figure, dressed in nine-Dragon golden robes, wearing a purple-gold crown, and exuding supreme majesty, suddenly emerged from his seemingly eternal meditation... and opened his eyes!

It was none other than Heavenly Profound Divine Emperor!

In his light golden eyes, which seemed to contain the cycles of birth and death of the sun, moon, and stars, for the first time, a trace of uncontrollable... surprise and doubt appeared!

"Hmm?!"

Just now, at that instant!

He clearly felt that the aura of his innate Cultivation Technique—the Cang Xuan God Emperor Scripture—which had long been integrated with the Laws of this heaven and earth, had flashed past in a certain corner of the city... and then vanished?!

Although, that aura was extremely faint.

Although, the trajectory of its operation was full of awkwardness and... flaws.

But, that unique "Cang Xuan" Dao rhythm, full of supreme majesty and control, could not be mistaken!

No!

That aura just now... seemed... not to be purely the Cang Xuan God Emperor Scripture?!

Within that familiar "Cang Xuan" Dao rhythm, there was also another... even more ancient, more domineering, and even... a mysterious power that made him feel a trace of trepidation?!

That power was half divine and half demonic! Full of endless destruction and rebirth! It seemed to transcend all known Laws of this Divine Realm!

This... what was this again?!

Heavenly Profound Divine Emperor's brows furrowed tightly.

He stood up from the cushion that seemed to be formed by endless starlight.

His vast and boundless Divine Thought, capable of covering the entire Cangxuan Divine Realm, slowly spread out like an invisible tide.

At that moment, all the secrets of all living beings within Tianxuan City were, at this instant, seen through by that omnipresent, vast Divine Thought!

However... one breath... two breaths... ten breaths... still... nothing?!

The mysterious aura that had alerted him seemed to have vanished... without a trace, as if it had never appeared?!

It was as if everything just now was merely his... illusion?

"Hmph!"

Heavenly Profound Divine Emperor's face, for the first time, revealed a trace of... gloom!

He knew it was definitely not an illusion!

Or perhaps... his gaze slowly shifted towards the east of the city, towards the Second Divine Mountain, perpetually enveloped by seven-colored divine light...

Tianshu Peak!

That mysterious youth who had just triggered an ancient anomaly and even cracked the god ascension tower!

Lin Ye!

Could it be him?

He slowly withdrew his vast Divine Thought.

On his face, which had been full of supreme majesty, a playful and... cold curve slowly appeared.

"It's time... to 'visit' this newly appointed... guest elder."

...At the same time, at the peak of Tianshu Peak.

Inside the thatched cottage.

Lin Ye had already forcibly interrupted the hang-up of the Cang Xuan God Emperor Scripture the moment the System issued the "risk of detection" warning!

He slumped on the cold stone bed, panting heavily, his entire body already thoroughly drenched in a layer of cold sweat!

His face was as pale as paper! His dark eyes were filled with endless lingering fear and... a trace of uncontrollable ecstasy!

Just now, at that instant!

He clearly felt a terrifying Divine Thought, like an omnipresent tide, sweep through his body, his Divine Soul, and even the Origin of his Soul, which had long been integrated with the System!

If not for the System forcibly shielding all auras related to the Cang Xuan God Emperor Scripture at the last moment!

He would probably have already... been exposed!

"God Emperor..."

Lin Ye clenched his fists tightly, his dark eyes flashing with unprecedented solemnity!

This was... the true strength of a God Emperor-level expert?

Just a single Divine Thought was enough to... perceive the heavens and earth! Control life and death!

It seemed he had... underestimated him before!

And also... overestimated himself!

"Divine Origin..."

He must obtain enough Divine Origin as soon as possible!
