Chapter 110: The Sacred Emperor Shen Nong

  "Jade Aunt." Seeing Huo Shenzi finally fall into this field, Ye Chen felt a great relief in his heart and walked to Yu Linglong's side, shouting.

  "Chen Er, this person is just a stepping stone on your path to becoming stronger. If you can't even defeat him in three years, not only will I be disappointed, but your father will also lose hope." Yuling said softly.

  "Where is Father now? He hasn't returned for a long time." Ye Chen asked quietly after a moment of silence.

  "Don't ask about your father's affairs." Yuling shook her head, "If necessary, he will come to see you himself. For now, the most important thing for you is to quickly improve your strength."

  "Jade Aunt, you should know my situation, my dantian... what should I do..." Ye Chen looked at Jade Linglong, hoping she would give him a clear direction, so he wouldn't have to waste time figuring it out himself. After all, three years was a very short period of time, and when the Fire God's injury recovered, he would definitely come looking for him again.

  Yu Ling shook her head, looking at Ye Chen, and said: "You have your own destiny, Brother Ye once said that the seal on your dantian can only be lifted by yourself, external forces are almost impossible to do so, unless the Holy Emperor is reborn."

  "Saint Emperor?" Ye Chen was surprised, having come to this continent for the first time and hearing about the Saint Emperor, he didn't know if it was a state of being or a title.

  "What is Sheng Huang?"

  "The Sacred Emperor is a realm, it can also be said to be an honorific title, the strongest and most invincible existence between heaven and earth. However, there are no Sacred Emperors in this world, and each era can only produce one Sacred Emperor. With just a wave of their hand, they can sweep across the eight wildernesses and six harmonies, suppress the nine heavens and ten lands, and be revered by all the heavens for eternity!" Yu Linglong's face was filled with reverence and yearning.

  "Is it that powerful?" Ye Chen was shocked, his heart unable to calm down for a long time, and he asked tentatively, "Aunt Yu, have you ever heard of the person Shen Nong?"

  Ye Chen looked at her with hopeful eyes, the reason he asked this was because of the 'Shennong Baicao Ding' in his body. On Earth, there was no such 'Shennong Baicao Ding' in his body, which could only mean that it appeared in his body during the time he was unconscious after arriving on the Longevity Continent. So how did it get into his body, or who was behind it? All of this seemed to be shrouded in too much mystery.

  "Shennong?" Yuling's voice was slightly surprised, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she looked at Ye Chen, "Chen'er, why did you suddenly ask about Shennong?"

  Ye Chen took a deep breath and looked at Yu Linglong, saying: "Both you and Father are very mysterious, I don't know how strong you both are, but I can be sure that my origin should be clear to you both, so I won't hide it from you either. I am from a planet called Earth, not a native of the Longevity Continent."

  "I already knew that." Yuling nodded and continued: "What I mean is, you've actually arrived at the Longevity Continent, why would you ask about Shennong?"

  Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat, Yu Linglong's words told him that she must know about Shennong, the True Ancestor of Huaxia, otherwise she wouldn't have said something like this. He asked, "Do you know who Shennong is? If so, then you should know that he is the true ancestor of Earth's Huaxia. I want to ask, does this world also have any traces left behind by the True Ancestor Shennong?"

  "The Divine Farmer wanted to use the elixir to prove his way, but he couldn't break through the bottleneck and didn't get the recognition of heaven and earth. It's said that he once went to a backward planet, where he made great merits and blessings for all living things, and finally used the elixir and his merits to become a Holy Emperor, one of the six ancestors of the planet you are on!"

  "Is he the Holy Emperor?" Ye Chen was shocked beyond measure. If Shen Nong was the Holy Emperor, then wouldn't the 'Shen Nong Baicao Ding' in his body be the sacred imperial sword that proved his way? Thinking of this, Ye Chen's heart was stirred up like a turbulent sea, unable to calm down.

  "That's right, he is the Holy Emperor. But it's not just him, there are five people on your planet who have proven their virtue and achieved enlightenment. One of them achieved enlightenment in the early days of your planet, while the other four achieved enlightenment during the Desolate Era." Yuling said calmly, each sentence shocking Ye Chen.

  "This... didn't you say that only one person can attain enlightenment in the same era? Why were they able to attain enlightenment simultaneously in the Desolate Era?" Ye Chen suppressed the shock in his heart and asked with confusion.

  "Not bad, the six of them attained enlightenment a million years ago, when heaven and earth were not oppressive. Since that great event in the heavens, heaven and earth have changed. In the same era, only one sacred emperor is recognized, and no matter how brilliant other heroes are, they cannot attain the sacred emperor's enlightenment. However, they opened up another invincible path, which is the Great Emperor!"

  "What's the difference between a Great Emperor and a Holy Emperor?" Ye Chen asked.

  "The Great Emperor is an invincible existence under the Holy Emperor, not subject to the constraints of heaven and earth. Therefore, during the same period, there is no limit to the number of Great Emperors. Although they are invincible, compared to the Holy Emperor, there is still a big gap, whether in terms of lifespan or combat power, which cannot be compared to that of the Holy Emperor."

  "So that's what it means, the Great Emperor is also a realm, but it's one level lower than the Sacred Emperor, right?" Ye Chen nodded and said.

  "Heh heh, perhaps it can be said that way too, but all of these are still too far away. For now, what you need to do is find your own opportunity to break open the seal on your dantian and set foot on the true path of cultivation early. Your goal is to become a Holy Emperor, the number one person in the nine heavens and ten lands, and the greatest person among all eternity!"

  "Me?" Ye Chen pointed to his own nose, a bitter smile appearing on his face. "The Sacred Emperor is the goal of every cultivator, but it's like the stars in the sky - distant and unreachable. Let's just focus on getting stronger step by step for now, that's still too far away."

  "Auntie believes in you." Yuling quietly looked at Ye Chen.

  "Alright, I also believe in myself." Being gazed at by Yuling, Ye Chen had a rapid heartbeat, and even felt an urge to hold her tight. This feeling came suddenly, like a desire that surged up from the depths of his heart. Ye Chen shook his head, making himself more clear-headed, reached out and grasped Yuling's hand, which was smooth and delicate to the touch, like holding a beautiful jade.

  "Let's find a place to sit down and talk, Aunt Yu, it's not easy for me to see you, today I have many things I want to ask you." Ye Chen pulled Yu Linglong along as they walked. Yu Linglong didn't resist, but the skin on her face that wasn't covered by her veil actually flushed with a faint red glow.

  "What's wrong with me?" Feeling the shyness in her heart, Yuling was greatly surprised. She couldn't believe that she would feel shy, and the emotional thread not only entwined Ye Chen but also herself. She hadn't realized that the emotional thread had such a great impact on her, and even her strong will and divine consciousness were affected without her noticing.

  Upon reaching the top of a small hill, Ye Chen swept away the dust from a bluestone and sat down with Yu Linglong, saying: "Speak up, who else among our Huaxia Six Ancestors besides Shen Nong do you know? You shouldn't have been to Earth, so how did you come to know these things?"

  "What's wrong with you?" Seeing Yu Linglong somewhat dazed, Ye Chen felt quite strange in his heart, especially since her face was actually slightly flushed. Fortunately, he quickly pulled down her veil, and suddenly the stunningly beautiful face appeared before him. Such a face would make ordinary people involuntarily infatuated and enchanted if they just took one glance. It's really too beautiful, too enchanting. Even Ye Chen felt that it's unbelievable for someone to be born with such a devastatingly beautiful face.

  "Is this how you treat your aunt?" Yu Linglong came back to her senses, a thin layer of anger on her face, which made her even more alluring.

  Ye Chen was taken aback, his gaze suddenly falling on her lips, and his heart skipped a beat. At this moment, the faint glow on his neck flashed once, and in that flash, a strand of green silk appeared under his skin, circling around his neck - it was the same emotional curse green silk that Yu Linglong had once wrapped around his neck.

  A sudden surge of heartache rose in his chest, and inexplicably, Ye Chen stretched out two fingers to touch Yu Linglong's lips, concern etched on his face: "Why are your lips so pale? Are you hurt?"

  Yu Ling's face had just faded from its rosy glow, but under Ye Chen's actions and words, it suddenly floated up again. With a slap, she knocked away Ye Chen's hand and angrily said: "You little scoundrel, dare to lay hands on your aunt!"

  Ye Chen suddenly woke up, quickly withdrew his hand, and was shocked. What just happened? How could he make such an ambiguous move? He could only laugh dryly, "Hehe, wasn't I concerned about you? How did you get hurt? Was it Huo Shenzi? That shouldn't be!"

  "He?" Yu Linglong smiled, more delicate than a flower, captivating the heart, and said: "The Fire God you mentioned is only at the Six Harmony Five Changes realm. Even if he stands there and attacks me for a hundred years, he won't be able to hurt me in the slightest."

  "What is the realm of Six Harmony and Five Changes?" As for the cultivation system of the Longevity Continent, Ye Wen Tian had mentioned a bit about it before, but only limited to the Secret Realm of the Sea of Fate. After that, Ye Wen Tian didn't mention any other secret realms, so now suddenly bringing up the topic of cultivation realms made Ye Chen ask curiously.

  Yu Linglong smiled and said, "Alright, I'll explain it to you today. The Six Harmony Secret Realm is the third secret realm of the human body. Starting from the Life Sea Secret Realm, when a cultivator completes the ninth cycle of the Life Spring Surge, the spiritual energy in the Life Sea can subtly communicate with the five viscera and the life force of the physical body. If one can break through the bottleneck, they will enter the second secret realm of the human body, the 'Mysterious Storage Secret Realm'. The Mysterious Storage Secret Realm mainly cultivates the five viscera, transforming them into divine entities, with a total of five transformations."

  "When the Xuanzang Secret Realm reaches its fifth transformation, the powerful lifeblood energy may allow the cultivator to break through the next cultivation barrier and enter the Liuhe Secret Realm. The Liuhe Secret Realm mainly cultivates the six viscera, transforming them into divine entities, with a total of six transformations.

  After the Liuhe Secret Realm is the Tianmai Secret Realm, where one cultivates the eight meridians and the central meridian of the human body. This secret realm is the most critical, as it goes against the natural order of heaven. Because once the nine meridians are fully connected and transformed, they can directly connect to the divine orifices in the human brain.

  The Tianmai Secret Realm has a total of nine reversals. Each time a meridian is fully connected and transformed, it is like going against the natural order of heaven, bringing one closer to the divine orifices by another step.

  Once you enter the Shenniao Secret Realm, your cultivation will no longer be about spiritual energy, but rather about magical power. The Shenniao Secret Realm is still too far away for you, so I won't say more, my dear."

  Ye Chen listened very carefully, remembering every word of Yu Linglong in his heart. He didn't expect that the cultivation division of the Longevity Continent would have so many secret realms. The Fire God Son had only cultivated to the third secret realm and was already so terrifying. What about the fourth secret realm and even the fifth secret realm? How strong would those people be!
