517: Chapter 526 Heaven and Earth Chess Game, The Game Begins (Part 1) 517: Chapter 526 Heaven and Earth Chess Game, The Game Begins (Part 1) Dou Niu Palace!

The palace had no roof; the Chen Star scattered across the sky, its vast starlight cast down, illuminating the entirety of Dou Niu Palace with breathtaking beauty, adding an extremely mysterious hue.

At the imperial throne in the center of Dou Niu Palace, Ye Xuan sat upright.

His expression was calm, and one couldn’t decipher what he might have been thinking.

However, Yellow Fatty and others slightly furrowed their brows and hesitated in their eyes.

“Master, we…”

Yellow Fatty bowed deeply, but before he could finish his sentence, Ye Xuan waved his hand to interrupt him and said, “I know what you want to say.”

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Yellow Fatty and the others exchanged glances, each with a hint of shame and reluctance in their eyes.

“You feel that your own cultivation is too weak and absolutely incapable of following by my side, right?” Ye Xuan smiled broadly, directly addressing the concerns of Yellow Fatty and the others.

“Please, master, teach us the ways of cultivation.

Without entering the realm of Luotian Mystic Immortal, how can we serve effectively!” Yellow Fatty knelt on the ground, and the others did the same, each looking at Ye Xuan with pleading eyes.

Whether it was Yellow Fatty or Gu Beichen, each of them took pride in themselves.

When they saw the cultivation of the group of Immortals from Heavenly Court, a sense of urgency arose in everyone’s heart.

Too strong, truly too strong.

Let alone Shen Gongbao and Golden Spirit Saint Mother, these Daluo Golden Immortals, or the group of Immortals from Heavenly Court, even ordinary Heavenly Soldiers and Generals possessed Heavenly Immortal Cultivation.

Weak, very weak, as weak as ants—this was how Yellow Fatty and the others saw themselves.

Over six thousand years had passed, and Ye Xuan had already risen to be the Emperor of Three Realms; even Daluo Golden Immortals had to bow before them, and countless Immortals served under Ye Xuan.

Yet, Yellow Fatty and the others realized a truth: with their current cultivation, they simply weren’t qualified to stay by Ye Xuan’s side, which left them feeling both frustrated and helpless.

Thus, at this moment, Yellow Fatty and the others all knelt before Ye Xuan, hoping he would impart the methods of Immortals to them, allowing their cultivation to rapidly improve.

“The Immortal Dao is rugged, with Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations.

If you are not afraid of death, I will arrange some trial paths for you.

If you can all survive ten thousand years, then you may step into the realm of Luotian Golden Immortal,” Ye Xuan said calmly.

“Thank you, master, for your cultivation,” said Yellow Fatty and the others, their faces excited as they kowtowed to Ye Xuan.

Watching the determined look in the eyes of Yellow Fatty and the others, Ye Xuan profoundly sighed, recognizing that these individuals had once been his most loyal subordinates.

Although their current cultivation was inadequate, he, Ye Xuan, being the Emperor of the Three Realms, could potentially enhance their cultivation using Spiritual Medicine.

However, cultivation and the stages of each realm’s enlightenment were indispensable parts of the process.

“Before you depart, I must tell you this path is exceedingly rugged and also extremely cruel.

Perhaps, only one-third of you will survive, or maybe all of you will perish with your souls scattered.”

“You still have time to reconsider now; I can also use Peach Golden Pills to let you step into the realm of Luotian Golden Immortal within three years, but forever you will be confined to the boundary of Luotian Realm.”

Ye Xuan spoke earnestly, informing Yellow Fatty and the others that they still had the chance to reconsider.

“Master, no need to say more.

Regardless of what lies ahead, we will certainly not disappoint your expectations.”

Yellow Fatty didn’t hesitate at all, as he knew, the higher Ye Xuan’s cultivation became, the further the distance between them would grow.

Becoming a Luotian Golden Immortal seemed tempting, but it was not the ultimate goal Yellow Fatty and others aspired to reach.

“Very well, then listen closely to what I say, for each of your trials will be different,” Ye Xuan spoke earnestly, his voice taking a somber tone.

“Ye Xuan.”

“At your service,” he bowed deeply, his expression growing extremely solemn.

“Yama’s Underworld, the Eighteen Layers of Hell, the Netherworld Blood Sea, these are part of the Three Realms of Heaven and Earth, as well as one of the realms with the most complex forces.

I will annihilate your physical body and transform you into a Ghost Immortal.

From now on, you will no longer be an Immortal but an ordinary Ghost Immortal of the Underworld.

Your ultimate task is to become a disciple of the Five Ghost Emperors, and if you can also become a disciple of the Quasi-Saint Minghe Ancestor, then you would have exceeded the expectations of this trial,” Ye Xuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, his voice extraordinarily deep.

To shatter one’s Immortal body and transform into a Ghost Immortal is a pain not bearable by ordinary people, and their Primordial Spirit will endure the agony of a thousand cuts to the heart.

However, for Ye Xuan, there was no fear.

He then nodded heavily, for Ye Xuan’s will was the goal he strove for in his life.

Ye Xuan did not know what Ye Xuan was planning to do, but he knew Ye Xuan would never harm him, which made him perform three loud kowtows to Ye Xuan, promising to complete this life-threatening trial.

“Xue Ji!”

“Uncle Master!”

Xue Ji knelt down, her gaze resolute as she looked towards Ye Xuan.

Though she was but a woman, she possessed a fortitude unafraid of life or death and held profound admiration for her Uncle Master.

“Xue Ji, I will utterly destroy your Cultivation and transform you back into a young White Fox, your lifespan will also be completely erased.

Thereafter, I will send you to the Qingqiu Fox Clan.

Your task will be to burn incense and pray daily to the Nuwa Palace from your youth.

No matter how much suffering you endure within the Qingqiu Fox Clan, you must kowtow three times and perform a grand ceremony before the statue of Nuwa every morning, noon, and evening.

If you can become a disciple within the Nuwa Palace and follow Saint Nuwa closely, then you would be considered to have completed this trial,” Ye Xuan solemnly said.

“Rest assured, Uncle Master, Xue Ji will surely live up to your expectations,” Xue Ji bowed three times, a look of extreme determination in her eyes.

“Gu Beichen, at your service.”

“I want you to transform into a Demon Immortal, from now on not following the Path of Immortal Cultivation but only practicing demonic techniques.

I will also send you into the legendary Demon World, a world filled only with evil spirits and primordial demons created by the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, fraught with endless dangers.

Day and night, you will dance with death, and any misstep may result in your demise on this path of trial,” Ye Xuan’s voice was cold.

The so-called Demon World, although located within the Three Realms, was but a miniature world similar to the Ancestral Land of the Witch Clan; however, the Demon World was fraught with slaughter, and Gu Beichen might very well die there before even meeting the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou.

“Be at ease, Teacher.

Beichen will make sure to stand alive before you,” Gu Beichen remarked proudly, his eyes showing no fear, for he was no longer the frail youth of before.

Over these thousands of years, his heart had become as solid as rock.

“Ming Yi.”

“At your service.”

“I want to transform you from an Immortal to a Buddha and send you to the Thunderclap Monastery in Western Lingshan.

As long as you become a disciple of Duobao Tathagata, you will have completed your personal path of trial.”

“Yes, Teacher,” Ming Yi bowed as he accepted the command.

“Ming Er, I am sending you to the Chan Sect lineage.

Your trial path is to become the third generation disciple of the sect and to seek out the South Pole Immortal as a teacher.”

“Yes, Teacher,” Ming Er nodded solemnly.

“Ming San.”

“At your service.”
