Ye Chen's eyes gazed toward the boundless firmant.
"The first matter is this: the Divine Light Cluster is ford by the 'Dark Origin Water' encasing the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order.' If you retrieve the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order,' could you give the 'Dark Origin Water'? I need one hundred thousand drops of 'Dark Origin Water' for cultivation."
Ye Chen was cultivating the Eternal God Body's 'Water God Pattern,' which required one hundred thousand drops of 'Dark Origin Water.' Previously, he had already obtained over twenty thousand drops of 'Dark Origin Water' from the Divine Light Cluster he had bonded with, but it still wasn't enough.
If the clansn of the Nine Flas Clan could bond with the remaining Divine Light Clusters, they could obtain additional 'Dark Origin Water.' Thus, Ye Chen proposed this request.
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the little girl nodded without hesitation and said, "Ye Chen, brother, this request is too easy! If you want 'Dark Origin Water,' our Ten Thousand Spirits dicine Pavilion has plenty. Even if you want a million drops of 'Dark Origin Water,' that wouldn't be a problem!"
"No need for a million; one hundred thousand will suffice," Ye Chen said with a smile.
However, Cai Xiao'er's words reminded Ye Chen of sothing he had planned for so ti.
"Moreover, little girl, I have another deal to propose—let's see if your Ten Thousand Spirits dicine Pavilion would be interested."
"Of course, even if you're not, it won't affect the two matters I just ntioned."
"What deal?" Cai Xiao'er asked curiously.
Ye Chen replied, "I'm cultivating a type of Divine Body, but so materials are still missing. I wonder if your Ten Thousand Spirits dicine Pavilion has them. If you do, I'd be willing to purchase them."
As he spoke, Ye Chen focused his mind and spirit, engraving the list of materials required for the remaining three Divine Patterns into a jade plaque, which he handed to Cai Xiao'er.
The Eternal God Body currently had its 'Earth Divine Pattern' and 'Wind Divine Pattern' fully cultivated, but the materials for 'Fire God Pattern,' 'Water God Pattern,' and 'Chaos Divine Pattern' were still incomplete.
If Ye Chen could acquire so materials from the Ten Thousand Spirits dicine Pavilion, it would make this trip to the True Spirit Divine Kingdom all the more rewarding.
Although Cai Xiao'er was still only an eleven- or twelve-year-old girl, as a mber of the Nine Flas Clan, one of the Five Supre Clans in the True Spirit Divine Kingdom, her insight was exceptionally sharp.
Upon seeing the materials Ye Chen provided, Cai Xiao'er imdiately recognized them: "Ye Chen, brother, aren't these materials required for cultivating the Eternal God Body?"
"Could it be, Ye Chen, brother, that you also cultivate the Eternal God Body?!"
Cai Xiao'er's gaze toward Ye Chen was now filled with astonishnt.
The little girl knew very well what kind of difficulty the Eternal God Body entailed. It wasn't just that the cultivation process for the Eternal God Body was extraordinarily challenging; even gathering materials for the five Divine Patterns was known to be incredibly arduous.
Even her Nine Flas Clan didn't dare claim to have soone who could assemble all the materials needed for the Eternal God Body in one go!
The girl also noticed that Ye Chen's list of materials didn't include anything for the Earth Divine Pattern or Wind Divine Pattern.
This made the little girl think of an extraordinary possibility.
Could it be that Ye Chen, brother, before her had already completed cultivation of these two Divine Patterns, and therefore no longer needed materials for them?
"Ye Chen, brother, to what extent have you cultivated the Eternal God Body?"
"Furthermore, although you listed many missing materials, there are still plenty of other materials you didn't ntion. Could it be that you've already gathered those?"
Cai Xiao'er posed several questions in quick succession.
Seeing the disbelief sparkling in the little girl's wide eyes, Ye Chen chuckled, "Indeed, I have been cultivating the Eternal God Body, and with the help of so predecessors, I've managed to collect the materials for the Earth Divine Pattern and Wind Divine Pattern. I've successfully completed the cultivation of these two Divine Patterns. As for the materials for the remaining three Divine Patterns, I've managed to gather part of what's required."
The materials for the Eternal God Body were indeed incredibly difficult to acquire.
Ye Chen had managed to gather so thanks to Mrs. He, a Nine-Star Sovereign, as well as materials he collected from Heavenly God Mountain during his earlier explorations.
Boom!
Ye Chen's words were calm, but they resonated within Cai Xiao'er's mind like thunderclaps, leaving her little head spinning with dizziness.
Looking at Ye Chen, her eyes were glowing brighter than ever: "Ye Chen, brother, you're amazing! Your cultivation of the Eternal God Body puts you among the top-tier Sovereigns, and you've already completed two Divine Patterns!"
Thinking about the materials Ye Chen ntioned needing, Cai Xiao'er chid in, "Since Ye Chen, brother, needs cultivation materials, our Ten Thousand Spirits dicine Pavilion will certainly assist wherever possible."
"Ye Chen, brother, you gifted seventeen Divine Light Clusters, so I can directly agree on my father's behalf: any materials our Ten Thousand Spirits dicine Pavilion has can certainly be given to you. There's no need for a trade—the value of the Divine Light Clusters you gave already outweighs the material costs. Even if the cost isn't fully offset, my father would still willingly provide the materials. He enjoys befriending young geniuses, especially ones as exceptional as Ye Chen, brother!"
"Rest assured, while we may not be able to gather all your missing materials, we can certainly collect a portion of them!"
Cai Xiao'er made her promise to Ye Chen straightforwardly.
Watching the little girl's confident expression, Ye Chen nodded in acknowledgnt, choosing not to push the matter of a trade further.
He could sense Cai Xiao'er's genuine fondness for him and could discern her father's personality—the figurehead of the Ten Thousand Spirits dicine Pavilion—from her words.
Forging a connection with such a Nine-Star Sovereign could prove more significant than rely acquiring materials.
While Ye Chen was considering this, Cai Xiao'er spoke up again, "Ye Chen, brother, we've already agreed to the first matter you brought up regarding cultivation materials."
"Earlier, you ntioned hoping we could agree to two matters. What's the second one?"
Seeing Cai Xiao'er's eager expression as she awaited his answer, Ye Chen smiled: "The second matter isn't sothing urgent."
"Before ntioning it, I want to ask—as for the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order,' how long will it take for all of them to fully erge? Once they erge, how soon will you go to the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds'? And how long will you stay there? What can one find inside?"
Cai Xiao'er responded, "Ye Chen, brother, every ti the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order' appears, it will erge in nine regions overseen by our Nine Flas Clan and the First Supre Clan, the Blood Wing Clan."
"This ti, the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order' has appeared in our Dark Swamp Stars. Following the pattern, it's certain that it has also appeared in the other eight regions!"
"At this point, I imagine all the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Orders' have already erged, and might soon be in soone's possession!"
"Earlier, we obtained eighteen tokens at the southern edge of the stars. My sister has already sent word to the clan, and she and others are guarding the area, monitoring for further developnts and waiting for the arrival of clan experts."
"I only ca to the northern edge on a whim, thinking Ye Chen, brother, might be nearby. Unexpectedly, I bumped into you retrieving the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order.'"
"Regarding your question, Ye Chen, brother, once the clan experts arrive, it won't take long before we head to the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds'!"
"Although the journey to the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds' is far, with Nine-Star Sovereigns like my father leading the way, it will only take a day to arrive!"
"In the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds,' we can stay for a month by relying on the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order.' After a month, we'll be ejected by the Order."
"However, obtaining treasures depends on luck—those fortunate may find priceless Polar Sky Level Divine Fires or rare Divine Objects; those less fortunate might even face death within the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds.'"
"While the 'Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order' allows safe entry into the grounds without danger during the initial phase, the treasure-seeking phase will still be fraught with peril."
Cai Xiao'er looked to Ye Chen again and added, "Of course, Ye Chen, brother, if you choose to enter the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds,' my father would undoubtedly protect you. As long as you avoid certain extrely dangerous areas, you'd remain fairly safe!"
Ye Chen's eyes glinted at her words: "Little girl, are you saying your father will also go to the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds'?!"
With Nine-Star Sovereigns leading the way, combined with the Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order granting entry, the safety factor would indeed increase significantly.
Cai Xiao'er explained, "Ye Chen, brother, not only will my father go, but many Nine-Star Sovereigns from the clan may enter the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds' this ti!"
"Of course, the final arrangent will depend on the clan's decisions."
"What's certain, however, is that a significant number of Nine-Star Sovereigns will enter—and so will many from the Blood Wing Clan."
"After all, the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds' contain the third-ranked Divine Fire on the Extre Heaven Divine Fire List—'Ancient Temple Spirit Fire.' Neither our Nine Flas Clan nor the Blood Wing Clan possess Divine Fires of this caliber, so both clans will undoubtedly attempt to seize this fire once more."
"Even though our two clans have entered the 'Ancient Forbidden Grounds' multiple tis and failed to obtain the 'Ancient Temple Spirit Fire,' this ti, no one will pass up the opportunity to try again!"
Cai Xiao'er's words prompted Ye Chen to nod slightly.
He then spoke: "Little girl, my questions have been answered. My second matter is that I hope to join you and the Ten Thousand Spirits dicine Pavilion in heading to the Ancient Forbidden Grounds to explore it myself."
Initially, Ye Chen hadn't planned to enter the Ancient Forbidden Grounds.
But now that he had learned about it, and considering it lay along his route to the Extre Spirit Sea, he was willing to join the expedition.
With Nine-Star Sovereigns capable of leading the party to the Ancient Forbidden Grounds within a single day, they would save Ye Chen a significant amount of travel ti. Spending a month exploring the grounds seed worthwhile.
Though Ye Chen knew the third-ranked Divine Fire on the Extre Heaven Divine Fire List, the 'Ancient Temple Spirit Fire,' was almost certainly beyond his reach—the combined efforts of countless Nine-Star Sovereigns from two Supre Clans had already failed to claim it—it didn't diminish his desire to see what the Ancient Forbidden Grounds held.
Even if obtaining the 'Ancient Temple Spirit Fire' was out of the question, there was a chance he could acquire other Polar Sky Level Divine Fires or rare Divine Objects, which would make his possession of the Ancient Heavenly Cauldron Order all the more rewarding.
