"The Heavenly Emperor Fist is incomprehensible; it is definitely not just limited to this. It can continue to be developed into the foremost art in all heavens!"

"However, before I reach the Saint Realm, being able to create five forms is already my utmost limit, and further progress is impossible!"

Ye Chen also wanted to further create the Heavenly Emperor Fist to perfect this invincible technique.

Yet his own realm did not advance, leaving his skills at a standstill.

Therefore, Ye Chen aspired to prove the Dao and become a Saint. He couldn't just rely on creating techniques, he needed to seek another path!

"Given my current combat power, I can absolutely prove the Dao and become a Saint. I'm just missing one chance!" Ye Chen speculated. "Could it be that I cannot prove the Dao because the timing isn't right?"

"Yet, my fate is determined by me, not the heavens. Proving the Dao and becoming a Saint is my affair, and I shall take control of it myself!"

"I want to prove the Dao whenever I deem fit. Why should I await the right moment?"

Ye Chen, carefree by nature, refused to be bound. His prolonged inability to prove the Dao made him feel rebellious, eager to control his destiny and rule his own fate.

"The Great Dao is four and nine, but lacks one in fifty!"

"Across the heavens and myriad realms, there are a total of forty-nine Great Saints, and there's one that escaped!"

"The Dragon Vein is the one that escaped. If I could refine the Dragon Vein, could I prove the Dao and become a Saint?"

Ye Chen was receiving the baptism of the Heavenly Emperor's runes; his essence, energy, spirit, and thoughts were all transforming, reaching an unprecedented height.

The Heart of the Heavenly Emperor successfully congealed, but Ye Chen hadn't yet managed to prove the Dao, which did not discourage him but instead fueled his fighting spirit.

Ye Chen's greatest strength is himself, and he trusts in none other than himself. He doesn't believe in destiny, heaven's will, or opportunities!

If one doesn't strive, what use is destiny? What can heaven's will affect? What can opportunities change?

Thus, the key to success still lies within oneself: my fate is determined by me, not the heavens!

Ye Chen's prolonged inability to prove the Dao might be due to the wrong timing. However, Ye Chen didn't want to wait for the right timing; he wanted to take control of his own destiny!

Between heaven and earth exist many wondrous things, celestial treasures that can let martial abandons soar high, divine medicine, and mystical fruits that can propel one to the Extreme Realm!

While Ye Chen's opportunity to prove the Dao had not yet arrived, he could harness external forces to forcibly prove the Dao.

However, the matter of proving the Dao is no trivial affair, with virtually no external power to harness! But, there exists an unparalleled treasure on Earth that might help Ye Chen prove the Dao, which is the Dragon Vein beneath the capital city!

The capital's Dragon Vein is the escapee, possessing unbelievable wonders, which can allow a Great Saint to achieve the most extraordinary miracle!

A Great Saint trying to transcend above the Saint Realm is far more difficult than proving the Dao!

Since the Dragon Vein can aid a Great Saint in breaking through, it can certainly help Ye Chen break through too!

Thus, Ye Chen set his sights on the Dragon Vein, wanting to seize it, refine it, and harness its power to forcibly prove the Dao!

However, the Dragon Vein is sentient and extremely powerful, even a Saint cannot forcibly seize it!

Additionally, the Dragon Vein is deeply hidden underground, and even if its dragon aura leaks, it remains elusive.

Therefore, obtaining the Dragon Vein is not as simple as imagined!

"This Dragon Vein is the escapee, it can allow a Great Saint to break through again; it is absolutely an unparalleled miracle!"

"There are rumors of a Saint who attempted to forcibly capture the Dragon Vein, only to suffer its backlash and met with the end of both life and path!"

"The Dragon Vein isn't easy to subdue. If I want to refine it, I must plan carefully!"

"Moreover, the Dragon Vein lies beneath the capital, bearing Huaxia's national soul. If I want to claim it, I must first inform Yun Zheyue and give due notice to Huaxia's Nine Souls!"

The Dragon Vein is the foundation of the capital; if Ye Chen wants to subdue it, it will surely shake all directions and bring countless troubles.

Not to mention whether Huaxia Nine Souls would agree, even the ancient families wouldn't agree.

The capital's Dragon Vein is too involved, coveted by countless people; the ancient families have long been eyeing it, how could they let Ye Chen claim the advantage?

Additionally, between heaven and earth exist forty-nine Great Saints, and each is invincible. All have detected the existence of the Dragon Vein!

The Dragon Vein is the key for Great Saints to break through; the forty-nine Great Saints are bent on obtaining it. How could they let the Dragon Vein fall into others' hands?

Thus, Ye Chen's path to proving the Dao is hard, and seizing the Dragon Vein is equally challenging!

Ye Chen's only advantage over those Great Saints is being born on Earth, not rejected by Earth's power.

But Ye Chen has only this single advantage, that's all there is.

"The Dragon Vein is under too many watchful eyes. If I attempt to monopolize it, I fear the world would turn against me!"

"Hence, this matter cannot be rushed; I need to plan slowly!"

"My most pressing task now is to go west to find Yalina and bring that woman back by my side!"

"The current situation is becoming increasingly unstable, I must gather all my women by my side to protect them! Only then can I be at ease to accomplish my grand hegemony!"

Whether it is proving the Dao and becoming a Saint or the Dragon Vein in the capital, Ye Chen is determined to obtain both.

Moreover, Ye Chen also harbors the ambition to dominate the universe, turning Earth into his home ground!

However, Ye Chen's emotional ties are too many and too scattered, which would affect him and hinder his focus on establishing his foundation!

Therefore, before embarking on his great enterprise, Ye Chen must first find his wives and bring them all back to his side.

Only when all the ladies are clustered together and active within Ye Chen's sight can he be reassured and succeed.

...

After the Heart of the Heavenly Emperor was congealed, it baptized Ye Chen, tempering his essence, energy, and spirit, making his combat power far surpass that of before.

This baptism was extremely lengthy, continuing for three days before it finally concluded!

After transcending the state of selflessness, Ye Chen intended to set off westwards to bring Yalina back to Huaxia.

However, Ye Chen's sudden departure provoked dissatisfaction from Qin Ying and Qin Lan.

During the three days of Ye Chen's retreat, they had been waiting outside!

Furthermore, to prevent any accidents from happening, they did not close their eyes for three days, guarding Ye Chen outside the door.

The two women's profound affection and commitment were not met with praise from Ye Chen; instead, he intended to leave abruptly, which they found unacceptable.

Therefore, when Ye Chen announced his departure, each of the two women grabbed one of his arms, refusing to allow him to leave.

Ye Chen had been away for five years, and after returning to Earth, had been living in the courtyard.

Qin Ying and Qin Lan had visited Ye Chen several times, yet couldn't alleviate their longing.

Ultimately, under the two women's persistent persuasion and coquetry, Ye Chen chose to stay, agreeing to accompany them for a few days.

Ye Chen spent seven days with the two women before proposing to leave, to go west in search of Yalina.

However, the decision to leave was again opposed by the two women.

Moreover, they seriously threatened Ye Chen, saying: if you leave, don't come back!

Ye Chen, being a decisive and swift person, naturally would not relent in the face of such childish threats.

However, when Qin Ying placed a vegetable knife to her neck and told Ye Chen that if he dared to leave, she would die for him to see...

Thus, the Qin sisters successfully persuaded Ye Chen to stay.
