Ascension

The sky is high and the clouds are light, and there is a cool breeze.

On an ancient country road, a cow and a horse were marching forward with their heads held high and their chests puffed out.

Ye Hanjun stood on the neck of the cow and horse, looking forward.

Ye Liuying and Ye Yin sat cross-legged on his back, referring to the scroll.

Lie Xinxin, Lieyan Mu Shoucong, Zhe Yu, as well as the shrunken Lie Sheng and Shi Li, sat on the waist and watched the scenery on both sides.

Such a scene should be harmonious, tranquil and picturesque.

However, there are too many legs of cattle and horses.

Wherever they passed, they plowed the road almost completely, leaving a series of footprints that made people's scalp tingle when they looked at them from a distance.

"Ah! Ahh!"

A giant shark eagle flew overhead, strictly carrying out the instructions of its big brother, keeping its eyes and ears open, and doing its scout work meticulously.

"Big Brother! Southwest corner! There is a town in the southwest corner! You can preach there!"

"East! There's a wolf den in the east! Lots of wolves! They look delicious!"

"Ah! There are mercenaries blocking the road ahead. They seem to be collecting tolls. Old Shark, go scare them away!"

"call--"

As it spoke, the giant shark eagle sped up, and the aura of the sacred demon bird gushed out wildly.

All the grass and trees in the area along the way fell down.

The wild beasts all had weak legs and lay on the ground, not daring to move.

"Big Shark Bird! Run! Your life is at stake!"

The mercenaries, with their faces covered with flesh, half of them went into the tunnels that had been dug in advance, while the other half fled into the wilderness, at a loss as to where to go.

After a while, the seventy-two-legged ox and horse ran up with high spirits. After kicking away the obstacles with thirty-six kicks, it ran happily at the end of the horizon, stepping on the shadow of the setting sun.

……

Thirty years.

Ye Hanjun walked and stopped, sometimes in the small town full of the atmosphere of human life, tasting wine, listening to music, and experiencing the life of mortals.

Sometimes you will meet masters of all ages in the wild, and either hide your strength and background, chat with them and make friends with them, or help them escape from danger and do a good job.

Of course, missionary work is the top priority and is never forgotten.

Ye Hanjun pays more attention to fate. People with similar personalities are given priority, but anyone who has concerns will never be forced.

In this way, the position of the first path in distance perception is getting closer and closer.

The two sides are like positive and negative magnets, gathering towards the center along an unknown trajectory.

"Wow——"

This is a large canyon, with fish fossils scattered everywhere on the valley floor.

It seems that this place was covered by sea water tens of thousands of years ago.

As time passed, the ocean currents dried up and this place became a barren land.

Looking around, apart from a group of tenaciously surviving stone crabs, there are no large wild spirits to be seen.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

It was like a giant taking steps, and every time the sound fell on my heart, a ripple would appear.

Ye Liuying and Ye Yin opened their eyes and stood up.

In front of us, a "forest giant" over a thousand meters tall, holding a bone club, was running towards us.

Its eyes were extremely ferocious, and the aura of the king of sacred beasts emanating from its body forced all the stone crabs that had no desire to attack to burrow deep into the earth.

"Wow~~~"

Five hundred meters away from Ye Hanjun, the forest giant suddenly stopped.

Under the sunlight, its muscles were disintegrating and all the characteristics of the giants were disappearing.

After five seconds, it was no longer the giants who remained there. Instead, the plant-shaped aliens were lined up in an orderly manner, taking a defensive posture and looking in their direction cautiously.

"Using a forest giant as an illusion, disguising one's identity, and scaring off passersby?"

Ye Hanjun nodded slightly, there was no surprise on his calm face, only a hint of a distant smile.

Taoist Vine and Tree Knight - these are rare demon-type sacred beasts from the ancient universe, which have long been extinct in the outside world.

I didn't expect that the Flower God Valley would be of such a scale, with twelve heads on each side, and their average ranks ranged from the Supreme Saint to the Supreme Saint Great Success.

And these are just the soldiers defending in front of the formation, the most basic configuration in this team.

In the back, there are four "Tree Lords" carrying the palace. They are all real kings of sacred beasts.

On the top of the palace, there are some unattractive dandelions growing. Ye Yin and Ye Liu Ying probably cannot notice anything unusual at the first sight.

But Ye Hanjun was able to confirm that this was a demon beast called "Dream Dandelion", and it was also at the level of a Saint King.

The Tree Lord guards the ground and the surroundings, while the Dream Dandelion monitors the sky and is responsible for resolving any danger that falls from overhead.

"what……"

The giant shark eagle hovering in the sky sensed the condensed hostility and did not dare to land at all.

"Shh!"

The giant banana leaf on one side of the palace was lifted up, and a young girl jumped out from it, her face full of youthful vitality, full of joy and excitement:
"Master! I'm back!"

"Quack! Little Shovel! Long time no see!"

Before Ye Hanjun said hello, Guagua on his shoulder took the first step.

It was like a flash of aurora before her eyes, and when she looked again, it was already floating in front of Yu Ruxin, about to land on her shoulder.

"Hey! Where did this little beast come from? How rude!"

"We haven't verified your identities yet, and have not confirmed whether you are good or bad, or good or evil. If you hurt our Valley Master, what will be the crime?!"

Bang—an angry ginseng jumped out and was about to sweep the melon away with the leaves on its head.

This attack was obviously intended to restrain the force, but not to hurt the melon.

But to the surprise of Fujidoshi and Tree Knight, the general's "sweep" actually failed.

The white light was even faster. It circled half a circle, dodged all the leaves, and landed smoothly on the left shoulder of the Valley Master. His big eyes blinked with innocence and confusion:
"What are you doing? Do I look like a vicious beast? The kind that wants to eat you up in one gulp?"

"Bengua and Xiaotiecho have known each other since the last era. Those of you who came later should follow the order of first come, right?"

"you……"

General Ginseng was very surprised.

It is half a step away from becoming a god, and even a Saint King would be scared away if he took a glance at it.

Not only is this little beast not afraid of its skills, it seems not even afraid of the divine fluctuations it exudes. How could it be so evil and bold?

"Ah! It's Gua Gua! It's been a long time since we last met!"

Yu Ruxin's face was rosy, like a blooming peach blossom, and she was smiling:

"You are still very small, about the same size as General Shen, so cute!"

"Hehe, cuteness is just my appearance. I am a real talent. Whether it's frontline combat or logistical service, I am first-rate!"

Little Guagua stuck up his nose, looking very proud.

Suddenly, it smelled a very pure scent of grass and trees. It sniffed twice and finally locked onto Yu Ruxin's skin:
"Little Shovel, have you really become a saint?"

"Your body is so special, like a human-shaped valley filled with flowers, plants and trees, full of vitality and prosperity. I like it very much!"

"Yes! I have been promoted to a saint, and my power has been further enhanced. All the spirits, big and small, like me very much!"

Yu Ruxin, with a beautiful smile, seemed to have found a close friend and was about to chat about everything.

General Ginseng also jumped onto her left shoulder, only a finger's distance from Guagua. His small eyes widened as big as copper bells, and he said fiercely:
"Get down! You are not allowed to get so close to the Valley Master!"

"Why? Why should I listen to you?"

Guagua was not willing to be outdone. He puffed up his cheeks and tried hard to put on a ferocious look.

"boom!"

General Ginseng once again swung the leaves above his head, trying to sweep the melon away.

After the first failure, this time it almost went at full speed, using 90% of its total success rate.

However, Guagua jumped up, dodged, and landed steadily again, just like skipping rope.

"You said I was rude, but you are obviously even less polite!"

"Wow, little one, you're making me laugh."

"Our valley master is worth a ton of gold. Anyone who dares to hurt her will die!"

"A little fellow like you who looks harmless but may actually harbor evil intentions has the most uncontrollable factors. How can we allow you to run wild here?!" The Ginseng General, who was so angry that smoke was coming out of his head, waved the vines on both sides, trying to block the little fellow's dodging space at 360 degrees, then tied it up and dragged it away from Yu Ruxin's shoulder.

With a puff, Xiaoguagua turned into the second ginseng general, also waving the vine branches, wrestling with it, and falling to the ground together.

"How dare you use my power against me?"

"How dare you! You stole my form and used my identity to deceive people. For such a crime - take my punch!"

"Ping ping pong pong!"

Both ginseng generals were very fierce. Although their bodies were so small, when they fought, the earth shook and the noise was huge.

"Hey, stop fighting, we are all family..."

"Master, stop them quickly. General Shen is a pseudo-god of medicine. He sometimes has a quick temper. If Gua Gua is hurt, it will be difficult to deal with..."

Yu Ruxin was at a loss and stood there, not knowing what to do.

Ye Hanjun smiled gently and finally said:

"It's okay. Guagua is also a demigod. We're just playing. He knows what's going on."

"Ah? Guagua is already a demigod?"

Yu Ruxin was stunned for a moment, her wheat-colored skin stiffened slightly:

"So fast……"

"I came to Flower God Valley. Thanks to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth there, and the countless ways of growth that are suitable for my duties, I was promoted to the 9th level..."

"In the blink of an eye, Guagua has become a demigod. Considering its rarity... isn't it destined to be deified?"

Ye Hanjun smiled without saying anything, his eyes passed Yu Ruxin and suddenly focused on her flower crown.

There was a ball of golden light there, shining brightly.

When the beetle slowly wriggles and opens, with its golden body, the incomparable sense of familiarity will undoubtedly make people feel mixed emotions.

"Senior Jin Xuanzi, it's great that you're still alive."

"In the Second Era of the New Universe, it is truly a blessing to meet you on such an occasion."

"Ugh."

Jin Xuanzi flew into the air and couldn't help but sigh:
"We old guys are useless and can't protect you young people. In the end, you have no home to return to. It's really hard."

"Senior, what are you talking about?"

Ye Hanjun didn't take it seriously and smiled faintly:
"The saints and holy spirits of the Ye clan, you have all thrown yourself into the fire like moths, and the Ye clan has only managed to survive until the 13th era. Your contributions are so great, how can we just turn a blind eye to them?"

"Don't worry, senior. The suffering will pass."

"The Clown King is dead, the Light Witch God is dead, and the Dark Lantern Calamity has long been resolved by Father God."

"The remaining most troublesome one, the Evil Earth Emperor, is said to be completely crazy. Although he is a disaster, he is also ridiculous."

"..."

Jin Xuanzi was silent for a few seconds, with a complicated expression:

"The Mingdeng Ye clan is different from ordinary gods. From the ancient universe to the new universe, there are countless gods who are secretly hostile to us."

“Even if we are not directly in opposition, stepping on us can wipe out one of the most glorious clans in the past. This honor will also attract many gods.”

"There is also the legacy of the Dark Lamp. The three major families, the Ye Clan, the Blood Witch Goddess, and the Three Curse Ghost Monk, are concentrated there. As long as there is a chance to get a piece of the pie, the God Clan will be eager to see it, and the Saint Clan will take risks."

"These crises are deep-rooted and cannot be simply resolved."

“I don’t know your current situation, but as the only descendant of the Earthly Immortal, Ruxin and Huashen Valley may become the backbone allies of the Dark Lamp. If we can support each other, when the Dark Lamp is unsealed, we may be able to deter the enemy and prevent them from attacking…”

"Oh, Senior Jin Xuanzi, you are out of date!"

The flaming wood guard jumped off the buttocks of the 72-legged ox-horse, with a big red onion on its head, and approached the Taoist priest Fuji and the tree knight leisurely:
"You are right to worry!"

"But, the God-killing Shura is much stronger than you think. Most of the threats you just mentioned are actually useless!"

"You are... Mu Shoucong?"

Kim Hyun-ja apparently failed to recognize his former colleague at first glance.

It carefully looked at it several times, and the heavy atmosphere of the conversation was broken:

"Has this strong fire attribute undergone a mutation?"

"In just a few thousand years, you are infinitely close to perfection. It seems that you have many opportunities..."

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment~"

Lieyan Mu Shoucong imitated the people in the martial arts world, clasped his fists, and then winked at Ye Hanjun:
"God-killing Shura, can you show off your skills to Senior Jin Xuanzi and our friends at Huashen Valley?"

"The reputation of the Mingdeng Ye clan in the world may still be very bad, but to say that everyone wants to kill them and that all animals can bully them - this is almost a thing of the past and is unlikely to happen again!"

"Huh? How do you say this?"

Jin Xuanzi's attention was immediately drawn to the sound. He looked at Ye Hanjun's face, and then looked at Ye Liuying and Ye Yin.

"Wow—"

Ye Hanjun lit up the cross mark on his abdomen.

Immediately, a purple-gold cross lightning sword hung behind him, and his aura from head to toe suddenly changed.

“Stab, stab, stab!!”

Perhaps there are unfamiliar life forms around, and there are a large number of them.

Wisps of electric light emerged from the tip of Jian Lei Zi's sword, and divine fluctuations gushed out, radiating like a tide.

"Boom! Boom, boom, boom!"

The female-like Taoist priest Teng leaned back in shock and fear.

The male-like tree knight bent down unconsciously, and the trembling leaves expressed the shock and fear in his heart.

Even the Saint King-level Tree Lords lost their majestic bodies, their hands shook, and they almost smashed the palace to the ground.

"A deification? And a thunder-related one?!"

General Ginseng, who was still "competing wits and courage" with Guagua, maintained the entangled action with his eyes almost popping out.

Even beasts of the flesh fear the thunder in the sky. Whenever there is a thunderstorm, they become terrified and dare not hunt or leave their caves.

If plant-based monsters and medicinal beasts like them were hit by a lightning before they gained intelligence, their lives would be ruined.

Thunder - this most dangerous, domineering, ruthless and terrifying element, in the new universe, is actually controlled by gods?

This kind of power that represents absolute destruction would probably be regarded as the most difficult enemy even if the earthly immortals were alive, right?

"Gudong..."

Yu Ruxin swallowed her saliva, her youthful face looking as if in a dream:
"Master... is bound to the fetus of the God?"

"My master is a top boss? This... this, this, this..."

Little Shovel stuttered again, his lips moving, and he didn't know how to speak.

General Ginseng was also completely dumbfounded, making a lot of noises. Gua Gua took the opportunity to punch it, but it didn't fight back, as if its soul had left its body.

"Over the years... we have also been working hard to investigate intelligence..."

"Every clue shows that the members of the Mingdeng Ye clan are in a very dangerous situation..."

"Even, the Ye clan had a crowned emperor who died tragically in the sea of ​​clouds. Being targeted like this, it would be as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack to make a comeback..."

"What is the current situation? We have finally prepared ourselves mentally. Even if we have to be enemies with the heavens, we must protect the second hometown of the Valley Master..."

General Renshen let go of Guagua and turned into a walking corpse, staggering around:

"It's not our turn to worry about this..."

"The Ye family already has the third crown. The configuration of one crown and one god is enough to deter the fetuses of the gods with limited strength. Any family with a little bit of brains will not easily reveal their hostility..."

"One crown and one god? No no no, neither one is right!"

Lieyan Mu Shoucong was very satisfied with General Renshen's expression. He turned to stare at Jin Xuanzi who was in a daze, and shouted with a smile:
"Grandpa, please come out quickly!"

"This is the 'privileged elder' of the Ye clan. She has grown to the level of a saint. The significance of her existence is unimaginable even for the gods. You need to meet her!"

"Wow—"

Ye Hanjun's shadow swayed slightly, then suddenly extended, and finally condensed into a strange human shape.

General Ginseng, Tree Lord, Tree Knight, and Vine Taoist all felt like they had thorns on their backs, with the deepest fear in their hearts surfacing, making them unable to utter a single word.

"!!"

In an instant, Jin Xuanzi's eyes widened, and the blood of the holy beast in his body went wild, and the buzzing sound of its wings was so crazy -

"With this appearance... how could it be possible..."

"Didn't you die in the eighth era of the ancient universe? How did you survive? If the tribesmen knew... if Roufeng knew... how could the word "excited" explain even one percent of it?!" (End of this chapter)
