At the bottom of the Changling River.
Ye Tian sat cross-legged, as the river water flowed over his body, rich in water yuan qi wrapping around him.
Utilizing his God-level Five Elements Water Talent, he attracted countless water yuan qi to temper his body, rapidly strengthening it moment by moment.
âSuch a fast tempering speed! One month should be enough!â
Ye Tian said joyfully.
As days passed, many ferocious beasts attacked Ye Tian, but he easily slew them all. Eventually, this area at the riverbed became a death zone for the beasts, with none daring to approach.
And so, a month passed.
That day.
A tremendous tremor occurred at the riverbed, causing giant waves in the miles-long Changling River.
Boom!!!!
With each impact, his fourth bodily limit was broken by the water yuan qi, as countless yuan qi flooded into Ye Tianâs body, enhancing his physical strength.
After a long time, Ye Tianâs realm stabilized.
At this moment.
His physical strength had reached 400 Dragon Power, significantly stronger than before.
Having broken through, Ye Tian felt good and flew out from the riverbed.
Immediately, he went to the Moon God Sect to share the good news with Empress Yue.
In the Moon God Temple.
âMy dear, Iâve broken through the fourth bodily limit!â
Ye Tian excitedly shared the news with Empress Yue.
âThatâs wonderful!â
Empress Yue looked at her man with admiration.
âWho else could compare to my Ye Tian in breaking the fourth bodily limit so quickly?
Not to mention combat power, just in terms of cultivation, my Ye Tian is already the first in Zhonghai Super Base.
As Ye Tianâs woman, she felt overjoyed, as if she had broken the limit herself.
âMy dear, I plan to make a trip to Demon Sea Base.â
Ye Tian mentioned the matter of the three-star space rift and the Enlightenment Stele.
âWill it be dangerous?â
Empress Yue was somewhat worried.
She didnât want Ye Tian to take risks, but who would easily let go of such an opportunity?
Moreover, it was the Enlightenment Stele, even more precious than the War God Stele. If it were her, she wouldnât want to give up the chance if she had the ability to seize it.
Emotionally and logically, she shouldnât stop Ye Tian, but she still felt very worried.
âDonât worry, itâll be fine. With my strength, plus the Pseudo-Mystic level space talent, even if thereâs backlash, the cost will be minimal. Plus, the world of ferocious beasts is not strong, none of them are a match for me! Space rifts are terrifying, but when oneâs strength reaches a certain level, one can tear space apart without needing a space rift. My strength is not yet at the level of tearing space, but survival is not an issue.â Ye Tian said so.
âAlright then!â
Empress Yue greatly trusted Ye Tianâs words. Having received the inheritance of the Moon Sect, she naturally had some understanding of terrifyingly powerful beings. Tearing space apart was not an exaggeration.
Ye Tianâs strength was not weak either, having comprehended the Space Dao, the danger was indeed minimal.
âThen Iâll accompany you to Demon Sea Base!â
Empress Yue made this request.
âAlright, even if you didnât say it, I was planning to take you back with me!â
Ye Tian held Empress Yueâs hand, saying.
â¦â¦
At Demon Sea Base.
Since the space rift incident, although Demon Sea Base had lost many King-level warriors, it also underwent a period of rapid development. With no more threats from the space rift beasts, new King-level warriors emerged in the base.
That day.
In Demon Sea Base, the strongest warrior, Yun Mengli, was holding a meeting with the leaders of various major forces to discuss their development and the order of the base. Since his failed attempt to reach the Saint level a year ago, Yun Mengli had focused on developing Demon Sea Base, no longer returning to Zhonghai Super Base. Without family in Zhonghai and having lost hope after his failure, staying there was meaningless.
Yun Mengli had devoted all his hopes to the development of Demon Sea Base and the training of the younger generation. During the meeting, he received a message on his communicator: âLord Ye Tian has returned!â This surprised Yun Mengli, who had maintained Ye Tianâs residence and had it cleaned regularly in case he returned.
A King-level warrior at the meeting expressed his shock, recalling how he had witnessed a Emperor-level beast impale Ye Tian with a spear, apparently killing him. He even saw Ye Tianâs body and wondered how Ye Tian could be alive. Yun Mengli clarified that the body was a fake, and Ye Tian had evaded the spear, feigning death to deceive the beast.
The revelation shocked many King-level warriors, including Yue Ling from the Yue family. She had been saddened by Ye Tianâs apparent death years ago but had since advanced to the pinnacle of the Grandmaster level and became the new head of the Yue family. Utilizing a fragment of an Enlightenment Stele and a treasure that opened acupoints, she had fortuitously advanced to the King level and was attending the meeting.
Yun Mengli suggested they welcome Ye Tian, emphasizing Demon Sea Baseâs debt to him. The King-level warriors agreed and headed to Ye Tianâs villa.
At the villa, Ye Tian was showing Empress Yue his old residence, noting its cleanliness and deducing that it was likely Yun Mengli who had kept it maintained. Empress Yue noticed a group of King-level warriors approaching and identified Yun Mengli among them, assuming they were there to welcome them.
Upon arrival, Yun Mengli and the others bowed and greeted Ye Tian. As the villaâs barrier opened, a voice invited them in. Entering the villa, Yun Mengli was startled to see Empress Yue and respectfully greeted her.
