Chapter 1342: The Immortal Forest Shakes!

In the Immortal Forest World, winds stirred and clouds moved.

Strands of mysterious power flowed between heaven and earth.

Fang Tian, already advanced in years, suddenly opened his eyes, revealing sharp glints.

"Senior! Senior!"

"Bang!"

Fang Tian's door was burst open from outside, and Teng Jun's figure appeared before him.

Teng Jun's face was filled with ecstasy as he said, "Senior, you... did you feel it? Ha... hahaha, we... we can finally break through to the Divine Realm!"

Fang Tian smiled and said, "Indeed! The laws of the divine path have finally returned! The Immortal Forest Domain has revived like a withered tree in spring, rising from the dead! Most importantly, we have confirmed that Ye Yuan is still alive!"

Just now, Fang Tian had clearly sensed that the bottleneck which had been unbreakable for tens of thousands of years had finally loosened a little!

For so many years, he had long seen through the mortal world and given up that hope.

He had never imagined that, just before his death, the opportunity to become a god would descend upon him.

For Fang Tian, breaking through to the divine path was merely a small step.

In this Immortal Forest Domain, he would surely be the first martial artist to break through to the divine path!

Teng Jun exclaimed excitedly, "Haha, yes! Ye Yuan is not only alive, but he is doing very well! It's unimaginable that in less than fifty years, he has already reclaimed the Heavenly Dao for the Immortal Forest Domain!"

Fang Tian said with relief, "Indeed, all these years, I have been worried about Ye Yuan's safety and never thought I could break through to the divine path. Ye Yuan has truly given me a great surprise!"

How could Fang Tian not be surprised?

Once he broke through to the divine path, his lifespan would greatly increase, and living another fifty thousand years would be no problem.

More importantly, with his level of enlightenment, breaking through to the Insightful Divine Realm was only a matter of time!

By then, his lifespan would see an even greater increase!

Ye Yuan had truly given him an immense gift!

Just then, a terrifying aura surged into the sky, and an overwhelming pressure of a divine beast swept across the entire Enforcement Hall.

Fang Tian raised his eyebrows and said with delight, "It's Senior Tianli! Let's go out and take a look!"

High in the sky, a massive Xuanwu divine beast blotted out the sun, its dreadful pressure spreading for tens of thousands of miles.

"Hahaha... The laws of the divine path have finally returned! What the heavens took from me back then has finally been returned! Hahaha..."

Tianli's unrestrained laughter rolled like thunder, spreading far and wide, startling countless powerful beings.

For others, even with the return of the Heavenly Dao, they could not immediately break through to the Divine Realm.

But Tianli was originally a Divine Realm expert; with the return of the Heavenly Dao, he almost instantly returned to the Divine Realm.

Moreover, he was at the Great Perfection of the Insightful Divine Realm!

"Bai Guang, this is wonderful! Brother Yuan... he is fine!"

Li'er, usually calm and serene, was now somewhat at a loss.

For these decades, she had worried about Ye Yuan every single moment.

Until today, a great weight had finally been lifted from her heart.

Bai Guang also said excitedly, "Hey, we need to step up our cultivation, or we'll hold Big Brother back again when we reach the Tongtian Realm! With the Heavenly Dao restored, Big Brother's strength must have soared over these decades!"

Li'er nodded, completely agreeing in her heart.

Over these decades, she hadn't really cultivated much.

It wasn't that she didn't want to, but she could never calm her mind.

Now, she couldn't wait to go into seclusion and strive to break through to the Divine Realm as soon as possible.

...

Divine Fall Mountain Range, the Land of Exile.

The Ancestor, like Tianli, had also returned to the Divine Realm.

"Jun'er, you have truly given birth to a good son! It's incredible that he actually did it! It seems... it's only a matter of time before he lifts the curse and allows our people to leave this place!" said the Ancestor.

Ao Jun sighed softly and said, "He has suffered so much over these years."

The Ancestor smiled and said, "Don't dwell on that now. With the Heavenly Dao restored, you must cultivate well! Once you break through to the Divine Realm, you can resist part of the curse's power and greatly extend your lifespan. Otherwise, when Yuan'er returns and finds his mother gone, wouldn't he tear a hole in the sky?"

Ao Jun chuckled, amused by the Ancestor, and nodded with a smile, "The Ancestor is right. With his temper, he might really do that."

At that moment, Kun Wu gazed toward the direction of the Locking Realm Gate and murmured, "This kid actually made it safely to the other side! But... what exactly did he do over there? In just fifty years, has he already broken through to the Divine Lord Realm? Impossible! Ah, I really envy that old ghost Wuchen, being able to follow him."

Logically, Ye Yuan would need to reach the Divine Lord Realm to channel the Heavenly Dao and spiritual energy to the Immortal Forest World through the two天尊 spiritual treasures.

But only fifty years had passed, and Ye Yuan had already done it.

Breaking through from the initial stage of Insightful Realm to the Divine Lord Realm in fifty years—that was simply absurd!

...

"Ah! Ye... Young Master Ye, you've finally come out of seclusion!"

Hong Yin was startled, then realized it was Ye Yuan, and was overjoyed.

"Mm, this seclusion reached a critical point, so it took a bit longer. What's wrong with the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion? Why is there not a single customer in the main hall?" Ye Yuan asked.

"It's all because of the Wang Family! After you dealt with them, they kept a low profile for the first few years, so low they almost ceased to exist. But later, they invited a two-star divine alchemist from their main family in Mingyang City, and in one fell swoop, they stole all the limelight from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion! Over the years, the City Lord's Mansion and the Wang Family have joined forces to suppress us, and we can barely keep the pavilion running," Hong Yin said urgently.

"A two-star divine alchemist? Hmph, the Wang Family really went all out, even inviting a two-star divine alchemist! It seems we were too merciful before!" Ye Yuan said coldly.

Given Ye Yuan's temperament, he would have annihilated the Wang Family after the last incident.

But Ye Yuan had considered the situation in Guishan City and knew that if he made a move against the Wang Family, the City Lord's Mansion would definitely intervene, so he let them off.

Unexpectedly, instead of repenting, they had become even more aggressive.

"Young Master Ye, that two-star divine alchemist of theirs is very formidable. Not only did they launch divine-grade Divine Origin Pills, but they also introduced heavenly-grade first-tier mid-grade divine pills! They want to drive us to the wall!" Hong Yin said indignantly.

Inviting a two-star divine alchemist had already broken the unspoken rules of Guishan City, and the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion naturally couldn't withstand it.

Ye Yuan asked curiously, "The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is an establishment of the Ten Thousand Treasures Heavenly Emperor. Since the Wang Family could invite a two-star divine alchemist, why didn't Pavilion Master Yang request one from above?"

Hong Yin sighed helplessly and said, "Young Master, you may not know, but our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is very weak throughout the entire Wumeng Royal City region. Not only do we bear heavy taxes, but we also face various restrictions. Therefore, divine alchemists above two stars are scarce resources, usually allocated to larger prefectural cities. Over the years, the pavilion master has appealed to the higher-ups, but for a small place like Guishan City, they turn a blind eye and leave us to fend for ourselves."
