Eternal Holy Emperor

Chapter 1127 - 1031: Twelve Years (Double-Length)

Invisibly, he felt the Combat Saint Body advancing once more.

More importantly, he was contemplating reincarnation, recalling past lives, with various memories revolving in his heart.

The twelve years of cultivation seemed like a millennium, the divine power within him grew ever stronger, even when he remained motionless, he could feel the Dao Divine Power rumbling loudly within him.

He bore the weight of time, and gained considerably, his understanding of reincarnation deepened significantly.

The Chaos Dao was also evolving, and although he hadn’t taken a particularly significant step in the past twelve years, it had nonetheless deepened and continually progressed, perfecting the primordial Chapter of the Chaos Dao.

He comprehended heaven and earth, reincarnation, past and present lives, chaos, and the Ten-layered Heaven Level...

Although Ye Chen had not truly taken the final step to become a Heavenly King, he grew ever stronger, his Combat Saint Soul far surpassed the Divine Souls of ordinary Heavenly Kings, and from a certain perspective, he was already an unusual Heavenly King.

Because his comprehension and understanding of the Dao had long reached this level, even stronger than many Heavenly Kings.

His Dao was constantly progressing, and he believed that once he took the final step, there would be a significant enhancement, a point Ye Chen always believed in.

As time passed, Ye Chen became more and more unfathomable, even standing beside him, the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings felt Ye Chen was as deep as an abyss or ocean, unable to sense his depth, unimaginable in his power.

His eyes carried the vicissitudes of time, the decline of the sun and moon, not like a young man, more like a supreme existence, his gaze profound and far-reaching, able to penetrate all things in the world, clear in his mind.

The Dao rumbled mightily, Ye Chen gazed through the ages, transcending past and present reincarnations.

He had grown immensely powerful, standing at the threshold for years, his Dao restrained for years, yet always progressing.

The strength of his cultivation overshadowed his peers, and he had a premonition that the impending Heavenly King Tribulation he would face would be terrifyingly immense, far more dreadful than before, truly world-destroying.

Yet he continued to restrain himself, continued to progress.

Day and night, he sat at the God King Hall, overlooking the vast Ancient Emperor Continent, his gaze sweeping across the world, truly standing at the pinnacle, with few to challenge him.

Ye Chen’s majesty heightened, unmistakably still a young man, his two lifetimes combined just over a hundred years, yet he seemed like an ancient giant, filled with the experiences of time, able to perceive all things in the world.

Occasionally, he would gaze at the moon and sigh softly, murmuring to himself, "If this continues, might I directly break into the Great Power Realm one day?"

He didn’t know, uncertain, only knowing that he was currently stronger than many Heavenly Kings.

If this continued, perhaps in a few centuries or millennia, it might indeed be possible to reach that level.

Thanks to the insights gained from the fusion of two worlds, akin to true Heaven and Earth Creation, especially since the Gulan Great World was an Inner World opened by Mythical Era Kings, carrying the Dao Enlightenment of the King Realm.

This was particularly significant for Ye Chen’s Dao Enlightenment, making his Dao ever more unfathomable.

Meanwhile, the Holy Domain had been established for twelve years.

Though only twelve years, compared to other forces with histories spanning thousands or tens of thousands of years, it seemed very young, even akin to an infant, yet this did not hinder the flourishing and thriving of the Holy Domain, already becoming the most significant entity of its time.

Since the day it was established, nearly every day there were many cultivators eager to become a part of the Holy Domain.

For over the years, those who joined the Holy Domain generally experienced a certain degree of cultivation improvement.

It’s noteworthy that not everyone was like Ye Chen, the Emperor’s son, the Immortal True King, with terrifyingly extraordinary cultivation speed; most needed decades or even centuries to advance a level.

This was the true speed of cultivation; Ye Chen, the Emperor’s son, True King were rare Heavenly Prides throughout the ages, their speed extraordinary and unreplicable.

Due to the Martial Arts Divine Pavilion and Pill Hall, and the annual teachings of the Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings.

Even Ye Chen, the lord of the Holy Domain, had publicly taught multiple times, his Dao insights surpassing those of Heavenly Kings, clear from simplicity to profundity, often enlightening with a single word.

Even Heavenly Kings found benefits, let alone others, who experienced certain levels of growth.

Some cultivators already at the critical point broke through to minor realms, many gained significantly.

This is why countless people were eager to join the increasingly prosperous and thriving Holy Domain.

However, recruiting talent into the Holy Domain also became stricter.

And the Holy Domain stood so transcendently, based on the Central Imperial City, standing above the Nine Heavens, overlooking the vast Ancient Emperor Continent, claiming dominance over the great era.

For twelve years, the Holy Domain Great Sect remained incomparably transcendent, unlike the great sect dynasties of the world, only the Holy Domain Palace in the Central Imperial City was the true center, without territories, yet Holy Domain powerhouses spread across every corner of the Ancient Emperor Continent, whether Human Clan, Beast Clan, or Demon Race, all had top-tier powerhouses as members of the Holy Domain.

And because of the Holy Domain’s involvement, conflicts across the Ancient Emperor Continent’s regions lessened, the entire territories of the three clans were in a state of stable development.

Similarly, under the management of the Holy Domain powerhouses, Ye Chen’s statues were also found in increasing numbers of places, even in the most remote villages, his statues were revered by the world.

He seemed to have become the only Divine Land in the mortal world.

Now, as Ye Chen sat on the Divine Throne, the Power of Faith gathered above his head surged exponentially, more vast and boundless compared to before, forming a true sea of Power of Faith, not stored in the Human Emperor Tower, but in another space, specifically opened for the Power of Faith, connected with the Central Heavenly Palace.

Likewise, the Wish Power was continuously gathering, appearing crystal clear, stored in another space.

In the Mythical Era, the strongest Emperors and Kings had studied the relationship between Luck Power, Wish Power, and the Power of Faith, Ye Chen had studied the Power of Faith, and now he began to delve into Luck Power and Wish Power as well.

The three had infinite wondrous uses, rumored in the Mythical Era, an Ancient Great Emperor became an Immortal Emperor through the Power of Faith, but Ye Chen felt there might also be elements of Wish Power involved.

Wish Power, similar yet above the Power of Faith, not belief-oriented, related to the wishes of all beings, capable of extraordinary power.

For twelve years, though he hadn’t achieved significant results studying these three, he gained considerable insights and learned much.

Moreover, he had, under the name of the Holy Domain Divine Residence, forged several Divine Statues in the Holy Domain Hall, including the Goddess, Chen’er, Yii Wu, and Peacock King, for the world to also believe in them, discovering some of the wondrous uses.

With the Power of Faith attached, it could reduce the marks left by the passage of time to a certain degree.

Especially for the Peacock King, who once failed in reincarnation, his Reincarnation Foundation like it had been slashed, with indelible marks, but with the Power of Faith, he could slowly repair the Dao Foundation.

However, Ye Chen advised against refining the Power of Faith for cultivation, as it was ultimately external, less reliable than one’s own foundation, but could aid in enhancing perception and accelerating Dao enlightenment.

As for Yiyi and the Golden Little Divine Dragon, these two were special, needing no Power of Faith.

The Nine Great Emperor Dynasty Kings were also made the Nine Divine Kings of the Holy Domain, representing the Holy Domain, guarding the heavens and earth, and began erecting Divine Statues, enjoying the Holy Domain’s fortune and Power of Faith.

Their cultivation was progressing even without unsealing.

"Has the shift in heaven and earth begun?"

Ye Chen whispered, gazing into the profound Endless Starry Sky, his eyes equally deep and infinite.
