After spending seven days, the protective array on the top floor of the attic suddenly closed, announcing the end of this secret ascension.

At this time, Ye Chen opened his eyes, feeling the improvement of his internal cultivation, instead of showing a smile on his face, he had some doubts, only to see him frown, and said a question from the soul: "I said senior, is it over like this?

The pavilion master calmed his breath for a moment, then stood up and nodded, and said, "Well, how is it, how much has your cultivation improved?"

"Cultivation for... It's a bit better, but it's not what I imagined. Ye Chen scratched his head, hesitated for a while, and then said to the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion: "Originally, I heard from my predecessors that it took nearly a thousand years to create this secret method of your sect, and there are so many restrictions, I thought that I could raise my cultivation to the distraction period, no matter how bad it is, I will have to be about the seventh or eighth layer of the Yuan Infant, but now it is only promoted to the fourth layer of the Yuan Infant, which makes me a little..." Ye Chen didn't continue, you must know that his original cultivation was already close to the third layer of Yuanying, and under the improvement of this secret method, he had only crossed a small realm, and this result was too different from his expected goal, so he felt a little disappointed.

"Ahem, cough, cough..."The pavilion master naturally knew what Ye Chen wanted, only to see him smile slightly embarrassed, and replied: "This is also the last point I didn't say before, in order to ensure that there will be no side effects on both parties after using the secret method, we have reduced the conversion rate of the secret method and improved the safety of the secret method." Besides, an idea like Ye Xiaoyou's would definitely be impossible, otherwise there would be no other sects in the Central Domain surviving, and it would have long since become the dominance of our Tianji Pavilion family. ”

Hearing the answer given by the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, Ye Chen thought about it for a while and understood, like this kind of anti-heaven secret method with no side effects, it was already very good to be able to raise his cultivation to the fourth layer of Yuanying. In addition, the main reason for my disappointment is that I had too high expectations at the beginning, so I will inevitably be a little disappointed when I learn the results.

"If Ye Xiaoyou doesn't have anything else to do, then I'll send someone to inform those sect families who have already been contacted, and let them set off immediately and rush to the location of the secret realm. The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion said.

"What about us, don't you set off now?" Ye Chen asked.

I saw that the pavilion master smiled and said indifferently: "There is no need to be in such a hurry, even if those sect families rush as fast as possible, it will take at least a day to arrive." Ye Xiaoyou will wait here for a while, I will go down and explain a few things, and when we come back, we will set off for the secret realm. After speaking, without waiting for Ye Chen to react, the pavilion master turned around and walked down the attic, leaving Ye Chen standing alone on the top floor of the attic.

After a long time, Ye Chen sighed: "He really deserves to be the master of a sect, and he is resolute in doing things." After speaking, he looked up at the map of the heavens and stars imprinted on the top of the attic, and the phoenix rose in his eyes, carefully observing each star in the picture. This map of the heavens and stars is not just for ornamentation, it is also the supreme treasure of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, it is said that this picture implies the way of heaven, if you can find it yourself, it will have many benefits for future cultivation.

Ye Chen didn't know how long it took him to look at this Heavenly Star Diagram, but when he came back to his senses, the Heavenly Machine Pavilion Master was already standing beside him, looking at him with a smile. Ye Chen hurriedly withdrew his gaze, his eyes returned to normal, and he said apologetically: "The junior looked at this map of the heavens and stars for a while, and if he was offended, he would look at the pavilion master Haihan. ”

"It doesn't matter, to be able to discover the mysteries contained in the Heavens and Stars Diagram is based on Ye Xiaoyou's own ability, and besides, I am not the kind of stubborn person. The pavilion master smiled, took out a piece of jade order from the Qiankun ring, the jade order was engraved with the three small characters of 'Tianji Pavilion', and there was a simple charm circulating on it, the pavilion master handed this jade order to Ye Chen, and said at the same time: "This jade order is a token of our Tianji Pavilion, you hang it on your body, so that no one will embarrass you in the secret realm, unless they want to tear their faces with our Tianji Pavilion." ”

"Thank you for the gift. Ye Chen took the jade order, played with it in his hand a few times, and then hung it on his waist.

"Since I said that what Ye Xiaoyou gained when he explored the secret realm belonged to me, then I naturally have to guarantee the authenticity of this sentence. The pavilion master waved his hand, signaling Ye Chen not to take this matter to heart, and then continued: "We have already spent more than four hours here, and it is time to go, after all, we can't use flying boats and flying demon beasts this time, and it will take a lot of time to break the ban, so we are a little tight in terms of time." ”

"Hmm, why can't you use the flying boat and the flying demon beast?" Ye Chen asked puzzled.

"This time to explore the secret realm, our Tianji Pavilion will send a total of seventy-eight mysteries, and the lowest cultivation is also the existence of the distraction period, if you use flying boats and flying demon beasts, the target is too obvious, it will inevitably be discovered by those few sects, if you attract them at that time, I am afraid it will add a lot of trouble. The pavilion master patiently gave an explanation.

Afterwards, Ye Chen rushed to the secret realm with the people of Tianji Pavilion, and there was nothing to do on the road, so he chatted with the old man who had picked him up at the gate of the Middle Domain Gate.

"Can the seniors know the Ye family in the Middle Domain?"

"The Ye family?" the old man stroked his beard, recalled the relevant memories of the Ye family, with regret in his eyes, sighed and said: "It used to be the top force in the Central Domain, at that time, the first ancestor of the Ye family swept most of the Central Domain with an iron and bloody wrist, and since then it has established the supreme position of the Ye family. It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, after the death of the first ancestors of the Ye family and the older generation, before they got out of the five generations, the Ye family began to fight for power and profit, and since then it has gone to the road of decline..."

“... It is said that there was a civil strife in the Ye family later, and that civil strife greatly damaged the vitality of the Ye family, and the other sectarian families took this opportunity to unite against the Ye family, and after paying an extremely heavy price, they finally pulled the Ye family from the altar of the top forces, and the twelve sect families who participated in this battle also came to an end..."

“... And the current Ye family can barely be regarded as a second-rate force, there are few juniors in the younger generation who can handle it, and they all rely on those old guys to support it, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that it will not take fifty years to completely decline. ”

"Why, can't it get better?" Ye Chen asked suspiciously.

"It's basically impossible. The old man shook his head and continued: "You must know that if the family wants to pass it on, it must ensure the unity of its inheritance bloodline, and now with only those juniors of the Ye family, it is impossible to bring the Ye family back to life, unless someone gets the opportunity to go against the sky, or there is a baby whose blood concentration has reached the level of atavism. ”

Speaking of this, the old man suddenly looked up at Ye Chen, with a stunned expression, and asked suspiciously: "You are also surnamed Ye, and you also inquired about the news of the Ye family, could you be a member of the Ye family?"

"Hmm... In terms of bloodline inheritance, I am indeed a child of the Ye family, although I have never been to the Ye family in the Middle Domain. Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders and said truthfully: "Our line belongs to the branch of the Ye family in the Middle Domain, it is said that it was expelled by the Ye family because the ancestor made a mistake, and when I went back some time ago, I heard that they had returned to the Ye family in the Middle Domain, so I inquired about the news of the Ye family in the Middle Domain." ”

But this made the old man even more stunned, and when he looked at Ye Chen, his eyes lit up with silver-white light again, and then returned to normal after a few seconds, shaking his head and saying, "You said that you are a child of the Ye family, but you don't have the blood of the Ye family in your body." ”

"No?!" This made Ye Chen stunned for a moment, he was indeed a child of the Ye family.

"Yes, no, not at all. The old man said with great certainty: "There is an ancient monument outside the Ye family, which was set up by the ancestors of the Ye family himself, as long as a drop of blood is dropped on the ancient monument, you can test whether it is the bloodline of the Ye family, if the examiner has the blood of the Ye family in his body, even if it is weak, it can also light up the word 'Ye' on the top of the stele, the higher the concentration of blood, the more words will be lit." But you... I dare to take all my possessions to guarantee that you will never be able to light up. ”

Hearing the old man's affirmation, Ye Chen couldn't help but touch his chin, thinking about why the Ye family bloodline in his body had disappeared, thinking about it, and finally attributing it to the phoenix bloodline in his body. Ye Chen guessed that it was very likely that during those few Nirvana transformations, he treated this weak wisp of Ye family bloodline as an impurity, and then purified it. Thinking of this, Ye Chen didn't think about it anymore, after all, compared to the phoenix bloodline, even the atavistic level of the Ye family's bloodline was not worth mentioning.

"No, no, it's not a big deal anyway, as long as I know that I am a child of the Ye family. Ye Chen didn't care about the stall, and he didn't take this matter to heart.

The old man also nodded in agreement, agreeing with Ye Chen's idea, a Tianjiao like him, even if he didn't have the Ye family's bloodline in his body, the Ye family would agree with him, not to mention that he was originally from a branch of the Ye family.

After a few hours, Ye Chen and the people of Tianji Pavilion finally arrived at the location of the secret realm, looking at the children of the various sect families who were already guarding here, the old man walked to Ye Chen's side and introduced him to the names of these sect families one by one, among which was the Floating Life Palace. Ye Chen looked in the direction pointed by the old man, and happened to meet the gaze of the woman who led the team in the Fusheng Palace, and the two nodded at each other, which was regarded as a hello.
