471: Chapter 471 The Heavenly Emperor (36)

A top-tier flying boat forged entirely from Star Deity Gold tore through the Void Realm, slowly sailing out.

Its destination was the desolate Star Domain agreed upon with the Liu family.

When the flying boat arrived, the people of the Liu family had already been waiting there for a long time.

Compared to the Ye family's flying boat, which resembled a mobile divine temple, the Liu family's boat appeared much smaller and tactfully docked in a subordinate position, maintaining a very low posture.

The Liu family's lineup this time could not be considered small.

Leading them was an old woman with a deep aura who had only recently stepped into the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

Behind her was the current Saintess of the Liu family, Liu Yan.

At this moment, Liu Yan had long since lost her former arrogance and contempt. She had changed into a simple and elegant long dress, standing quietly behind her elder with lowered eyes and a submissive look, her inner thoughts unreadable.

Besides the two of them, there were several of the Liu family's top contemporary Prodigies, each with a powerful aura and a respectful expression.

Seeing the Ye family's flying boat descend, the Liu family's Quasi-Emperor old woman immediately led the group forward to greet them.

Just then.

A terrifying aura, far exceeding her imagination and nearly at the Quasi-Emperor Peak, intentionally or unintentionally revealed itself from within the Ye family's flying boat.

That aura was ancient and profound, carrying a legendary and ferocious might that had once slain Quasi-Emperors of the same rank.

The face of the Liu family's Quasi-Emperor old woman changed drastically.

Under the pressure of this aura, her Divine Soul began to tremble.

She almost immediately recognized the identity behind this aura.

The Ye Family's Fifth Ancestor!

An old monster who had lived for untold ages and was long thought by the outside world to have passed away.

A battle-hardened powerhouse, decisive in killing.

"The Ye family... actually sent this god of slaughter to protect His Highness, the Imperial Son!"

The Liu family's old woman was incredibly shocked.

The slight trace of luck or hidden schemes that might have existed in her heart vanished into thin air at this moment.

The old woman's attitude became even more respectful.

When the figures of Ye Yun and the Fifth Ancestor appeared on the flying boat's deck, she didn't even think before performing a deep bow of a Junior toward the Fifth Ancestor.

"Liu Qing of the Liu family greets Senior Ye Huangge!"

Seeing this, Liu Yan and the other Prodigies were also terrified and hurriedly followed suit, bowing with extreme humility.

Liu Yan kept her head very low, glancing out of the corner of her eye at the youth in brocade robes who looked calm.

Her heart was filled with a complex mix of emotions.

Regret, resentment, humiliation, and a trace of fear that she hadn't even noticed herself.

Once upon a time, this person was her fiancé, a "useless body" she had publicly humiliated.

And now, she had to accompany him with a forced smile, cooperate with him, and didn't even have the courage to look him in the eye.

"No need for such formalities."

The Fifth Ancestor's voice was flat. Throughout the process, he kept his eyes closed to rest, as if he didn't care about the Liu family at all.

But his presence itself was the greatest deterrent.

Ye Yun took in the Liu family's performance, but he did not lower his guard because of it.

"Since everyone is here, let's begin," Ye Yun said indifferently.

"Yes, Your Highness, the Imperial Son."

The Liu family's old woman responded respectfully and then took the initiative to lead the way.

The two families, one after the other, entered the newly discovered ancient ruins together.

Within the ruins, space was shattered, and ancient killing Formations and powerful Restrictions were everywhere.

Without needing Ye Yun or the Fifth Ancestor to speak, the Liu family's Quasi-Emperor old woman volunteered to lead the way with the Liu family Prodigies.

They carefully broke the Restrictions along the way, blocking all possible dangers for the Ye family, truly acting as loyal attendants.

Soon, they encountered an extremely powerful ancient Restriction.

The Liu family's old woman acted personally, expending a great deal of energy, yet she still couldn't budge it in the slightest.

When the Prodigies under her tried to break it, they were even backlashed by the Restriction and suffered significant injuries.

The Liu family's old woman dared not try again. Wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, she respectfully approached the Fifth Ancestor and bowed to ask for guidance.

"Senior, this Formation is too ancient. This Junior is incompetent; please grant your guidance."

The Fifth Ancestor still had his eyes closed and simply flicked his finger casually.

A seemingly ordinary gust from his finger landed precisely on a certain node of the Restriction.

*Crack.*

The indestructible ancient Restriction shattered at the sound.

The Liu family's old woman was terrified by the sight, and her awe of the Fifth Ancestor deepened further.

Ye Yun observed the Liu family's performance throughout. He did not lower his guard, using his Heart Heavy Pupils to observe every corner of the ruins while also secretly monitoring the micro-expressions and Divine Soul fluctuations of the Liu family.

He confirmed that, at least for now, these people truly did not dare to have any ulterior motives.

Under the "joint efforts" of the two families, they finally reached the very core of the ruins.

This was a massive altar shrouded in Chaos Qi.

In the center of the altar, a head-sized light sphere of Legacy, emitting an extremely Yin and cold aura, floated quietly.

"Primal Beginning Yin Inheritance."

Found it.

A look of fervor appeared in everyone's eyes.

However, outside that Legacy light sphere, there was a layer of powerful Seal invisible to the naked eye.

"Let me try!"

A Liu family Prodigy couldn't contain himself and was the first to rush forward.

But before he could get close, he was violently blown back by a powerful repulsive force, coughing up blood.

Even Liu Yan, with her Glazed Sacred Body, felt her blood and Qi surge and her face turn pale when she tried to approach.

This layer of Seal had a very strong repulsive force toward those who were not Primal Beginning successors.

The Liu family's old woman tactfully stepped aside and made a respectful "after you" gesture to Ye Yun.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Son, please."

Ye Yun nodded and walked slowly toward the altar.

As he approached, the "Primal Dao Canon" he had already mastered within his body resonated strongly with this extreme Yin aura.

The powerful Seal, as if meeting its master, dissipated on its own.

Without any hindrance, Ye Yun reached out and took the core Legacy light sphere into his body.

*Boom!*

The moment the light sphere was taken, the entire altar shook violently.

Streams of pure, dissipating Primordial Beginning Qi swept out in all directions like a tide.

"Quick! Absorb it!"

The Liu family's old woman was overjoyed and immediately led the Liu family members to sit cross-legged, frantically absorbing these "scraps" like sponges.

Each of their cultivations received a significant boost under this pure energy.

"Thank you, Your Highness, the Imperial Son, for granting us this Opportunity!"

The Liu family members were moved to tears of gratitude toward Ye Yun, as if they had received a heavenly blessing.

Meanwhile, Ye Yun was completely immersed in his own world.

The moment the "Primal Beginning Yin Inheritance" entered his body, it resonated violently with the "Primal Beginning Yang Inheritance" he had obtained previously.

The two forces merged frantically within him, beginning to evolve the truly complete "Primal Dao Canon."

His cultivation, which had been strictly suppressed at the Venerable Realm, began to climb rapidly under the impact of this power.

The dao seed transformed from the Heavenly Eye trembled violently, with more and more cracks appearing on it, as if it would completely collapse at any moment.

"I must find the Desolate Palace as soon as possible!"

Ye Yun forcibly suppressed the rampaging power in his body, feeling extremely anxious.

If this continued, he would truly be blown apart by his own massive Foundation.

At the very moment the Yin and Yang forces completely fused.

A sudden change occurred.

Within Ye Yun's divine sea, a fragmented, ancient star map suddenly surfaced and flashed past.

At the same time, the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body Bloodline within him began to boil violently.

A strong call from the deepest part of his Bloodline crossed endless time and space from the unknown dark void pointed to by the star map.

Ye Yun suddenly opened his eyes.

A divine light flashed in his eyes.

He suppressed the wild joy in his heart and whispered to himself.

"The Desolate Palace... I found it!"
