Chapter 415 News of the Tomb Ship
Especially the human race.
As the news slowly spread, even though the Divine Eye Clan had been deliberately avoiding contact with the human race when gathering information, the human race still quickly learned of it after the Purple Moon Holy Land declared war.
In the virtual universe, at the pinnacle of Thunder Island, several high-ranking officials gathered together.
"What happened?"
Upon receiving the news, Giant Axe rushed over, his face grave: "How could Chen Yuan have offended the Purple Moon Holy Land?"
"I don't know either."
The one speaking was the Lord of Darkness, who was also the first to discover news about Chen Yuan.
He looked completely bewildered and shook his head: "I've sent you the whole story, but I don't know anything more."
"I received the message." Giant Axe frowned slightly, completely puzzled. "I can understand the Divine Eye Clan going mad, but Chen Yuan didn't provoke the Purple Moon Holy Land, so why is there a bounty on his head?"
"This is indeed strange."
The Chaos City Lord shook his head, speculating, "Could it be that Chen Yuan's cultivation is too rapid, causing the Purple Moon Holy Land to feel threatened, which is why they issued the bounty?"
"After all, Chen Yuan has only been cultivating for a few thousand years."
"But who could have imagined that Chen Yuan's secret technique could instantly kill twelve top-tier universe lords?"
.
At this point, the Lord of Chaos City said with some surprise, "It even includes the Five Lords of Chaos, who are at the peak of power that are in no way inferior to me and the Darkness."
The group was secretly shocked by the strength Chen Yuan displayed in this battle.
Even the giant axe had to admit that while his ultimate strike could produce such a result, it required the assistance of a supreme treasure.
In fact, when Chen Yuan instantly killed the Five Chaos Lords and others, he didn't even use any supreme treasures; he accomplished this feat by simply using secret techniques with his bare hands.
"Chen Yuan's strength has surpassed mine." Giant Axe couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. "To possess such strength after only a few thousand years of cultivation, his talent is truly terrifying. It's understandable that the Purple Moon Holy Land is wary of him."
"But there's still one thing I don't understand."
He looked puzzled. "Why has the Eastern Emperor Holy Land, one of the two great holy lands, made a decision completely opposite to that of the Purple Moon Holy Land?"
Giant Axe looked at the other high-ranking officials and found that they also had confused expressions.
This time, the two holy sites announced the news almost one after the other.
The Eastern Emperor Holy Land initially claimed to be the place where the Primordial Lord resided, and all the cultivators of the Eastern Emperor Holy Land avoided it.
However, the Purple Moon Holy Land then announced in a high-profile manner that it had listed the Lord of the Primordial Beginning as a target to be killed and issued a huge reward, offering three supreme treasures as a reward to anyone who kills the Lord of the Primordial Beginning.
Of course, given Chen Yuan's previous impressive record and the rumors that he possessed more than ten supreme treasures, not many people have taken any action so far. Only the Divine Eye Clan has publicly declared that they have accepted the bounty.
However, considering that Chen Yuan is currently cultivating deep within the Black Pattern Stone Pillar area, where the impact of will is too strong, so much so that there are very few people in the entire universe who can get close, the so-called bounty is out of the question.
This is why, despite their concerns, the high-ranking members of the human race did not immediately disturb Chen Yuan's cultivation after receiving the news; instead, they gathered together to discuss how to respond.
They are now all stuck on one question: what is the purpose of the Purple Moon Holy Land's bounty? Why must they kill Chen Yuan? Is it simply because he has excellent cultivation talent?
Most importantly, is there any possibility of reconciliation between them and the Purple Moon Holy Land? After all, the overall strength of the Purple Moon Holy Land is far greater than that of the human race.
Even in the eyes of the Giant Axe, going against the Holy Land was a completely unprofitable choice. Putting aside everything else, they couldn't even penetrate the Holy Land's universe.
If the Purple Moon Holy Land were willing to cancel the bounty, even if it required sacrificing a supreme treasure, he would consider it a worthwhile deal.
"Hehe, I can roughly guess what the Purple Moon Holy Land is thinking."
Just when everyone was at a loss, the primordial ancestor suddenly appeared and said with a smile.
"Original Ancestor!"
"Teacher/Grandmaster!"
Upon seeing the Primordial Ancestor appear, several high-ranking members of the human race shouted in unison. Then, the giant axe asked, "Primordial Ancestor, do you know why Chen Yuan is being targeted?"
"Um."
The Primordial Ancestor nodded and smiled, "To be precise, I guess this order should have come from the Purple Moon Ancestor."
"The Purple Moon Ancestor?" The group exchanged glances.
"You may be wondering why Chen Yuan, a mere fellow who has only cultivated for a few thousand years, would attract the attention of the Purple Moon Ancestor."
Yuan Zu smiled slightly and, without keeping them in suspense, said directly, "Because he is worried."
"
"Worried?" Hearing this explanation, the group became even more puzzled. Giant Axe couldn't help but ask, "The Purple Moon Ancestor—what is he worried about?"
"It's obvious he's worried about anyone with a strong will," the Primordial Ancestor said, revealing the Purple Moon Saint Lord's true intentions.
Upon hearing this answer, everyone thought of Chen Yuan's powerful will and his strange willpower techniques, and their eyes lit up with understanding.
According to the information they received, Chen Yuan's will has now surpassed that of the strongest in the universe and reached the level of the Lord of the Holy Land. Could this be the reason why the Purple Moon Ancestor was wary of him?
"But why didn't the Eastern Emperor Ancestor, who was also a master of the Holy Land, target Chen Yuan?"
"Well—" Yuanzu pondered for a moment, then prepared to express his guess.
But before he could speak, another voice interrupted him.
"That's because there are some things that the Eastern Emperor Ancestor was unaware of."
Hearing that familiar voice, everyone's faces lit up with surprise and delight: "Chen Yuan, you're here!"
"I apologize, everyone." Chen Yuan smiled slightly, "My seclusion has come to a temporary end, but my clone outside heard some news, which is why I've come out to meet you."
"So, you already know about the bounty the Purple Moon Holy Land has placed on you?" Giant Axe asked.
"That's right." Chen Yuan nodded and smiled nonchalantly. "But you don't need to worry, the Purple Moon Holy Land can't do anything to me."
Everyone knew very well that Chen Yuan never boasted, and seeing that he didn't seem to care, they all breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're confident you can handle it."
Honestly, as Chen Yuan's cultivation speed increased, the trouble he attracted also increased.
The Divine Eye Clan is manageable; with all their supreme treasures, the Giant Axe is not afraid of the seven True Lords. But the Purple Moon Holy Land is different, because the Purple Moon Ancestor is genuinely a whole realm stronger than him.
Even if the giant axe wanted to help, it was helpless and could only hope to reconcile with the other party.
Fortunately, Chen Yuan didn't seem to care about the Purple Moon Holy Land's methods, which finally put Giant Axe's mind at ease.
"Chen Yuan".
Giant Axe asked curiously, "Judging from your tone, you seem to know why the Purple Moon Holy Land has put a bounty on you?"
"Of course." Chen Yuan smiled, then said, "Actually, this isn't the first time the Purple Moon Holy Land has targeted our human race. I learned from my grandmaster that he was also targeted back then, right?"
Upon hearing this, Giant Axe, Chaos, and the Lord of Darkness were taken aback, then nodded in agreement: "That's true."
"That happened at the very beginning of this cycle."
The progenitor also sighed, "Back then, I rose to power in the Cosmic Sea and quickly reached the ninth level of combat strength. I was almost invincible throughout the Cosmic Sea. However, the Purple Moon Holy Land at that time, like the Eastern Emperor Holy Land today, adopted an avoidance strategy towards me."
"The turning point came when my will broke through to the level of the Lord of the Holy Land while I was researching the secrets of the virtual universe."
He shook his head. "From then on, the Purple Moon Holy Land also issued a bounty on me, but the bounty was only for one supreme treasure."
"I still remember when I fought off many assassins with the Primordial Ancestor." Giant Axe grinned. Of course, back then he was only a Universe Lord, and his combat power was about the same as Chaos now.
"Yes," the Primordial Ancestor sighed. "Back then, the Purple Moon Holy Land's efforts against me weren't very strong. But as my strength reached the tenth rank and I truly became an invincible powerhouse in the Cosmic Sea, the Purple Moon Holy Land took the opportunity to remove my bounty."
"After that, it's just—" He shook his head and fell silent.
But everyone knows that after that, the Primordial Ancestor clashed with the Original Will, and was subsequently suppressed to this day.
"Therefore, the targeting by the Purple Moon Holy Land is actually traceable."
Chen Yuan concluded, "That is, a cultivator with outstanding talent and a strong will."
"So, the breakthrough of the Primordial Ancestor's will back then, and now that you also possess the will of a Void True God, is what attracted the Purple Moon Ancestor's targeting?" Giant Axe said in realization.
"But I remember that there was a powerful being named Beichi Star Lord on the spaceship who also possessed extraordinary willpower."
The Lord of Darkness, standing to the side, asked in confusion, "Why wasn't he targeted?"
"Although the Star Lord of Beichi has a strong will, he is a cultivator from the first era of reincarnation."
Chen Yuan shook his head and explained, "He has been cultivating for too long. Although his will has also broken through to the level of the Lord of the Holy Land, his future potential is limited. The Purple Moon Ancestor does not take him seriously."
"I see." Everyone then understood that the Purple Moon Ancestor was worried about rising talents.
The question is, why did the Eastern Emperor Ancestor never target this aspect? Why was it only the Purple Moon Ancestor who took action?
Regarding this question, Chen Yuan explained to everyone the purpose of the Purple Moon Ancestor, which was to seize control of the Primordial Universe in the future.
Of course, to seize control of the primordial universe, one needs at least a Saint-level will, which the Purple Moon Ancestor is far from meeting, but that doesn't stop him from regarding the primordial universe as his own private property.
That's why the Purple Moon Ancestor tried every means to suppress those cultivators with outstanding willpower and talent. The original ancestor did this in the past, and Chen Yuan does it now.
Even in the future, Luo Feng was suppressed in every way after the Purple Moon Ancestor discovered his powerful willpower.
As for the Eastern Emperor, it was due to inheritance; he was unaware of the details of seizing the original universe, which is why he felt it didn't matter.
Chen Yuan didn't explain these details in too much detail, mainly because some details about the subsequent realms were restricted by the supreme rules, and he simply couldn't say them.
Even so, everyone finally understood the cause and effect. It was simply that the Purple Moon Ancestor was petty and wanted to suppress geniuses!
"So that's how it is—" The giant axe finally realized, "No wonder the Purple Moon Holy Land targeted the Primordial Ancestor back then, and now they're targeting you. It turns out they're jealous of your talent."
"Haha, more or less." Chen Yuan chuckled.
"Are you sure you can handle the bounty on the Purple Moon Holy Land?" Giant Axe was still a little uneasy and asked repeatedly, "If you need anything, just ask me for help."
"Don't worry, I've never been afraid of anyone in the entire universe." Chen Yuan shook his head slightly.
Now that he possesses two top-tier ninth-order secret techniques, under the same conditions of divine power, he is almost indistinguishable from a ninth-order true god.
Not to mention that in addition to the secret techniques, he also possesses a set of Void-level secret treasures. With the two combined, his current strength has probably already reached the level of the first rank of the tenth order, which is the peak of the Primordial Ancestor level.
If the original ancestor could be called invincible in the universe, then Chen Yuan would also dare to call himself invincible.
With that kind of strength, why would he need to fear the Purple Moon Holy Land? Anyway, the Purple Moon Holy Lord's true form is still on the Origin Continent and can't come back.
"With your words of comfort, I can finally rest easy." Giant Axe breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, I just wanted to let everyone know I'm safe and sound."
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "My seclusion in the Cosmic Sea is not over yet, so I won't stay any longer. See you all later."
"goodbye."
Not long after Chen Yuan left, Giant Axe suddenly slapped his forehead: "I was too nervous just now and forgot to mention something. I haven't asked Chen Yuan if he wants the position of leader of the human race."
"No rush," the Primordial Ancestor said with a smile. "For Chen Yuan, cultivation is the most important thing. We can bring this up again when he's done with his work."
"Alright, now that this matter is settled, I should go back and continue my cultivation."
The Primordial Ancestor chuckled. His main body was still undergoing enhancement at the origin of the virtual universe; he had only sent a wisp of his avatar to attend the meeting today.
Seeing that the meeting was over, with a "poof," the ancestor's avatar also vanished.
On the other hand, after this period of cultivation, Chen Yuan finally used the Eye of Primordial Beginning to collect all the information about the No. 12 Black Pattern Stone Pillar.
"The efficiency of data collection has improved significantly."
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly, "Unfortunately, just as I expected, some of the patterns on these black-patterned stone pillars are duplicates."
This time, he cultivated for about a year (in the outside world) and finally finished collecting information on the stone pillar. Unfortunately, he only increased his mastery of the secret technique by 5%, which was less than last time.
The current proficiency level of the Primordial Eye has reached level 5, approximately 11%.
"If there is more and more repetition in the subsequent content, I'm afraid these black-veined stone pillars will make it difficult for the Eye of Primordial Chaos to enter the next level."
Chen Yuan sighed helplessly, "Oh well, things will work themselves out. If this information isn't enough, we can always look for other things."
"Let's continue collecting."
Soon, he left the location of the No. 12 black-patterned stone pillar and flew straight towards the No. 13 stone pillar.
Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, Chen Yuan has completed the data collection for the No. 13, 14 and 15 black-patterned stone pillars. He is currently in the core area of the No. 16 stone pillar.
His proficiency with the Primordial Eye has reached 24.6%, of which about 13% comes from the information from the first three stone pillars, and the remaining 0.6% comes from some data from the 16th stone pillar.
"The degree of duplication in the data is indeed increasing."
Chen Yuan frowned slightly. "If this continues, sure enough—hmm?"
He was suddenly startled because he received a telepathic message from Irene.
Logically speaking, Chen Yuan had already blocked out all interference, and even if it were Irele, she wouldn't bother him unless it was something important.
At this moment, Irene directly transmitted her voice to him, which meant that something extremely important to him must have happened.
"Could it be that—"
Chen Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly entered the virtual universe, opening Irene's message.
"Master, I've found a tomb ship at the core of the spaceship," it seems to be the one that appeared in the original story. Would you like to come and take a look?
Upon seeing this message, Chen Yuan's face instantly lit up with a look of surprise!
