A terrifying aura crashed through the Chaos Domain like a tsunami, instantly sweeping across the entire Eastern Hua Divine Continent!
Cultivators who had been in a state of constant panic, hiding in various corners and not daring to show their faces, felt a supreme pressure descending from the heavens. They involuntarily fell to their knees, lacking even the courage to raise their heads.
It was not the violent aura of the Ascension Realm, but an absolute coercion unique to Ye Chuan—gentle yet completely defying all resistance.
Master Taichu looked at Ye Chuan, whose aura was unfathomably deep, and felt a bit surprised at how the young man's presence had grown even stronger.
"Young friend Ye is truly a heaven-defying genius."
Ji Lingxuan was even more filled with shock, feeling increasingly glad about his decision to befriend Ye Chuan early on. This kind of karmic fortune was likely something the entire Taichu Sacred Land would not encounter even in ten thousand years.
Thank goodness. He had chosen the right side.
This was perfect.
Ye Chuan smiled faintly without saying much. With a flash of his figure, he took the two of them and left the Chaos Domain.
He didn't waste a single second, instantly teleporting to the Northern Hua Divine Continent and charging straight toward the Wutong Sacred Land.
The Wutong Sacred Land had already lost more than half of its elders and disciples, and its only pillar of support, Master Wucang, had been absorbed into the Human Emperor Flag. Left leaderless, the remaining disciples and elders had absolutely no power to resist.
Upon Ye Chuan's arrival, those people either surrendered at the mere sight of him or were absorbed and reformed by Ye Chuan using the Human Emperor Flag. The top-tier faction that had dominated the Tianxuan Continent for tens of thousands of years was completely flattened in just half a day. Even their mountain gate plaque was shattered, completely wiping them off the map.
"Those who enter my Human Emperor Flag, reform yourselves well and strive to obtain the qualifications for reincarnation as soon as possible." Ye Chuan looked down at the Wutong Sacred Land. Even if they just wanted a simple death, they still needed to earn a quota. Otherwise, he would beat them until they all suffered from concussions.
The treasury that the Wutong Sacred Land had accumulated over ten thousand years was completely opened. Countless spirit stones, heavenly materials, earthly treasures, out-of-print cultivation methods, spirit vein cores, and divine weapons were all taken by Ye Chuan.
He hit the jackpot!
...
After finishing all this, Ye Chuan returned to the Yuxu Sect.
"Hmm..." Standing in front of the mountain gate of the Yuxu Sect, Ye Chuan stroked his chin, as if pondering something.
How about...
Ye Chuan raised his hand to activate his Source magic. With a light tap of his fingertip, towering mountains rose from the ground, and spirit veins surged out from deep beneath the earth. The spiritual energy was so dense that it transformed into a thick mist. Pavilions, martial arts arenas, scripture pavilions, and a grand pilgrimage hall emerged.
Magnificent buildings rose at a visible speed, complete with carved beams and painted rafters, enveloped in immortal energy. It was a hundred times grander than the former Wutong Sacred Land and Taichu Sacred Land.
It was actually created out of thin air by Ye Chuan using his Source magic!
"From this day forth, the Yuxu Sect shall be renamed the Yuxu Sacred Land, and I, Ye Chuan, shall be its First Sacred Lord."
Ye Chuan's voice drifted lightly across the entire mountain range, yet it fell clearly into the ears of every single cultivator on the Tianxuan Continent.
The news seemed to grow wings, instantly spreading to every corner of the Tianxuan Continent and setting off monstrous waves!
Slaying a ten-thousand-year-old Ascension Realm patriarch, annihilating the Wutong Sacred Land, establishing Yuxu as a Sacred Land... Each and every one of these was an unheard-of, heaven-defying feat!
All the sects, noble families, and sacred lands on the Tianxuan Continent, big or small, dared not show the slightest negligence. They prepared lavish gifts overnight and dispatched their highest-ranking elders or even sect masters to personally rush to the Yuxu Sacred Land to pay their respects, all in hopes of clinging to the thickest thigh in Tianxuan and seeking a sliver of protection.
The once insignificant Yuxu Sect, which had been wiped out by the Qingyun Sect and left merely clinging to life, had overnight become the sole supreme Sacred Land of the entire Tianxuan Continent. No one dared to disobey, and no one dared to show disrespect.
...
A few days later, the Yuxu Sacred Land had taken shape. Immortal energy swirled, spirit veins surged, and disciples moved about in an orderly manner, presenting a scene of immense prosperity.
Ye Chuan stood on the high platform of the pilgrimage hall, gazing at the endless palaces and the crowds of worshippers below the mountain, his expression calm.
A cool and elegant figure slowly walked out from a spatial rift, dressed in a plain white dress. It was Bai Qianshuang.
She had just returned to the Tianxuan Continent and heard cultivators all over the streets discussing Sacred Lord Ye Chuan, the Yuxu Sacred Land, and the incredible feat of slaying the Ascension Realm Wucang. Throughout her entire journey, she had been in a state of a daze.
Bai Qianshuang: "?"
Bai Qianshuang didn't even know what had happened.
What did they mean the Yuxu Sect had become the Yuxu Sacred Land?
What did it mean that after returning home for a bit, her family's thatched cottage had turned into a massive villa estate?
It wasn't until she saw the magnificent and immortal-energy-shrouded Yuxu Sacred Land with her own eyes, and saw the familiar man on the high platform, that she finally snapped back to reality.
It had only been a short year.
A year ago, Ye Chuan was just an ordinary person in the real world, and she was a remnant of the Yuxu Sect, hunted down by the Qingyun Sect with nowhere to run.
Her sect had been destroyed, her loved ones had passed away, and she had been driven from place to place, eventually ending up in the real world for some unknown reason, where she was saved by Ye Chuan.
At that time, she never dared to hope that she would one day return to Tianxuan, let alone that the Yuxu Sect would ever see the light of day again.
But now, that once ordinary young man was already standing at the absolute pinnacle of the Tianxuan Continent. Now, at the peak of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, he could slay a ten-thousand-year Ascension Realm expert, annihilate his enemies, and rebuild the sect.
He had even turned the small Yuxu Sect into the Yuxu Sacred Land.
"Oh? You're here." Ye Chuan noticed Bai Qianshuang, his tone softening a bit.
"Step down." He raised his hand, signaling Su Yao beside him to retreat.
"Woof, Master, I understand." Su Yao, who was crouching to the side, immediately withdrew.
Ye Chuan smiled as he walked up to Bai Qianshuang, pointing at the endless palaces of the Sacred Land before them and asking,
"Qianshuang, how is it? It's much better than the Yuxu Sect from back then, isn't it?"
Bai Qianshuang looked up at the magnificent sight before her, then looked at Ye Chuan, her eyes turning slightly red as she gently shook her head.
"It feels like a dream."
Ye Chuan smiled and patted her shoulder. "It's not a dream. With me here from now on, no one will dare to touch a single hair on the Yuxu Sacred Land."
As the two were speaking, a clear voice announcing a visitor echoed from outside the Sacred Land's mountain gate.
Dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, the handsome and spirited Ji Lingxuan walked in quickly, followed by two elders of the Taichu Sacred Land holding thick congratulatory gifts, their faces full of smiles.
"Ah, congratulations to Sacred Lord Ye, and congratulations on the establishment of the Yuxu Sacred Land, shaking the very foundations of Tianxuan!"
Ji Lingxuan walked to the front of the hall and bowed, his tone bright and hearty as he handed over the congratulatory gifts in his hands.
"This is the congratulatory gift from my Taichu Sacred Land, along with a congratulatory letter personally written by our patriarch. The patriarch has already returned to the forbidden grounds for closed-door cultivation, and he specifically instructed me to make sure I convey his congratulations to the Sacred Lord on his behalf."
Ye Chuan smiled. "Alright, Holy Son, there's no need for such formalities. Our relationship doesn't require all this. Have a seat."
Ji Lingxuan sat down as instructed. Looking at the prosperous Yuxu Sacred Land before him, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion:
"I really couldn't have imagined that in just a few short months, the landscape of the Tianxuan Continent would completely change. The Wutong Sacred Land is destroyed, and now the Yuxu Sacred Land has appeared."
One had to know that the major Sacred Lands had always kept each other in check; this was the first time such a massive shift had occurred.
Fortunately, Ji Lingxuan's relationship with Ye Chuan was quite good. Furthermore, since Ye Chuan was someone from the upper realm, the Taichu Sacred Land under his own leadership might very well be able to ascend to an even higher level.

Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao!

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
