"What does that mean?" Ye Chen asked, puzzled.

"The strong ones of our plane mostly mix in the Canglan Realm, where the true battlefield of the mighty lies!" Emperor Litian said. "There are many people, people you don't know, all waiting for you to arrive in the Canglan Realm!"

"Who are these people?" Ye Chen inquired.

Emperor Litian had unraveled the mystery of his origins, yet now he had brought new confusion. Were people in the Canglan Realm really waiting for him?

"Among those people are your loved ones, as well as your greatest enemies!" Emperor Litian said. "You are of the Ye Family, born extraordinary, and moreover, you are the great-grandson of the Saintly Great Power. Many are aware of your existence, and they are all waiting for you to descend upon that realm."

"Why should I go to that realm?" Ye Chen suddenly laughed. "I have no attachment to that realm, why should I visit and meet people who have nothing to do with me?"

Ye Chen's mother had run off as soon as he was born, never providing a shred of care all these years. His father did look after him for a few years, but ultimately he too returned to the Canglan Realm and even took a young wife there...

Both parents played their separate games, completely forgetting Ye Chen and failing in their parental duties. Why should Ye Chen seek them out?

Moreover, if Ye Chen were to set foot in the Canglan Realm, he might just disrupt their happy lives.

"Haha." Emperor Litian laughed mysteriously, looking at Ye Chen as he spoke. "I'm revealing so much to you today because I like your defiant spirit!"

"Senior Litian, our realm is about to face a catastrophe, does the source of this calamity come from the Canglan Realm?" Ye Chen abruptly asked.

The Saintly Great Power had manifested, and the Great Venerable of the Other Shore was born; they were to awaken people to the coming of an unprecedented calamity.

In this enormous catastrophe, even the Great Venerable of the Other Shore might perish, and the Saintly Great Power could be diminished.

Yet, the Great Venerable of the Other Shore dominated heaven and earth, and the Saintly Great Power sat high in the Ninth Heaven; what could possibly threaten them?

Ye Chen was filled with doubt, but the emergence of the Canglan Realm instilled in him a sense of crisis; that realm was far too powerful, ten times stronger than his own!

Thus, Ye Chen speculated that the unprecedented calamity might indeed come from the Canglan Realm.

"I don't know," Emperor Litian shook his head. "This catastrophe is no small matter; even the Saintly Great Power cannot predict what will happen. It is an ordeal of nine deaths and one life!"

"Nine deaths and one life, is it really that terrifying?" Ye Chen murmured.

"Our realm has already started to stir, with some hidden powers emerging one after another, and the situation has become very volatile..."

"..."

Ye Chen and Emperor Litian talked for a long time, solving some of the mysteries in his heart. However, as he came to understand some things, new questions arose.

Therefore, even though he knew about his origins, there was still much that was unclear to him.

However, no matter how Ye Chen probed, Emperor Litian was not willing to disclose more, merely advising him to become strong and to uncover the truths himself.

In the end, Ye Chen left the Other Shore Palace of Litian and returned to his cave abode.

"Ye Chen, are you alright?" Upon his return, Yalina and Qianyue Bing were the first to approach, showing their concern.

"It's time for us to leave!" said Ye Chen.

The three of them had spent three years in Litian's cave abode,

In those three years, Ye Chen had perused countless ancient texts, mastering numerous martial arts techniques, becoming a veritable walking arsenal of martial arts.

In three years, Yalina and Qianyue Bing had completely surrendered their hearts to him, their love so deep it was life-consuming.

In three years, Ye Chen's cultivation had made unimaginable strides, his combat strength reaching an extreme, even surpassing Yalina.

The three years in the seclusion of the cave abode were like a long meditation retreat that brought great gains to Ye Chen.

However, Ye Chen had been out of sight for so long, he feared those women might mistakenly believe he was dead...

"Senior, can I take some martial techniques from your Wood Tower?" Ye Chen asked.

"You can," Emperor Litian nodded.

Thus, Ye Chen entered the Wood Tower, grabbed the martial techniques from the shelves, and stuffed them into his Qiankun Bag.

"Senior, we hit it off at first sight, and now that I'm about to leave, won't you give me a treasure or something?" After taking the martial techniques, Ye Chen rubbed his hands together and stood in front of Emperor Litian.

"The value of those martial techniques is immeasurable, more precious than any treasure!" Emperor Litian said.

"Godfather, you are my godfather. Your godson is leaving now, really won't you give me something?" Ye Chen said with a pitiful look.

"I'm just your godfather, not your birth father. Why should a godfather worry like a real father?" Emperor Litian ignored Ye Chen's attempt to act cute.

"Godfather, you are closer to me than my real dad," Ye Chen said earnestly. "My real parents didn't want me, only godfather you care for me the most. I don't want a real dad, just a godfather!"

To show his sincerity, Ye Chen was about to throw himself forward and hug his legs. However, Emperor Litian seemed to have anticipated this and swiftly dodged far away.

"Godfather, just give me some kind of treasure, even if it can't kill the Great Venerable of the Other Shore, as long as I can stay alive in front of him!"

Ye Chen's current strength was enough to fearlessly confront any earthly immortal.

But once he faced the Venerable of the Other Shore, he would inevitably be crushed without suspense. Emperor Litian was a strong figure from the Other Shore, and Ye Chen wanted to get something from him that could protect him in front of the powers of the Other Shore.

"The Heaven Swallowing Demon Pot on you is already of the treasure level that suppresses heaven. The pot has swallowed some Immeasurable Golden Light and has unraveled some of its seals!"

"The power unleashed by the pot, although it may not kill a powerhouse from the Other Shore, can still be used to save your life," Emperor Litian said indifferently.

"Sigh," Ye Chen sighed deeply. "I, Ye Chen, truly have a hard life, abandoned by my parents from birth. Now, I've finally acknowledged a godfather, and even he is reluctant to fuss over me..."

"..."

Thinking of Ye Chen's tragic life, Emperor Litian felt a pang of remorse; the boy was indeed pitiful.

In the end, Ye Chen got his wish, and Emperor Litian gave him three divine talismans.

These three divine talismans, condensed by Emperor Litian himself, could unleash the mighty powers of the Other Shore once activated.

However, the profundity of the three talismans of the Other Shore was infinite, far surpassing any talismans crafted by earthly immortals!

The earthly immortals' talismans could only explode with the power of ghosts and gods once, as if the person who crafted the talisman was present and delivered the strongest blow.

The talismans of the Other Shore were infinitely profound. The talisman could be activated once, turning into an invincible attacking force, or it could become the ultimate defense.

What made Ye Chen ecstatic, though, was that the power of the talisman could be bestowed upon the wielder, allowing them to possess the mighty powers of the Other Shore! Moreover, this talisman wasn't a one-time consumable, as the power that wasn't fully unleashed could still be sealed and saved.

"The might contained within the three talismans can let me fight a battle against the Great Venerable of the Other Shore; they are absolute super weapons!" Ye Chen, holding the talismans, had a beaming smile blossoming on his face.

"You this treacherous godson!" Emperor Litian felt a reluctance to part with them; even for him, crafting the talismans of the Other Shore was difficult. Now that Ye Chen had taken three at once, it really pained Emperor Litian's heart, especially since Ye Chen wasn't his biological son...

"Go!"

In the end, Emperor Litian waved his hand, and a black hole appeared out of the void, swallowing up Ye Chen and the others, transporting them out of the cave dwelling.

"I've had a long talk with Ye Chen and revealed many secrets; I don't know what this kid is thinking, whether he'll step into the Canglan Realm or not..."

"I've already told Ye Chen the location of the altar in the Canglan Realm; whether he goes or not is up to him now."

"Ye Lingtian, the matters you asked me to talk about, I've told your son everything. I can only help you this much; whether Ye Chen will go to the Canglan Realm to find you, in the end, it will depend on what he chooses..." Emperor Litian's voice echoed in the world of the cave dwelling.
