Primordial Star Scripture-Chapter 928 - 878: A Cup of Wine (Second Update)

Back then, the great figures stationed at the fourth layer of the Heavenly God Mountain's Secret Ground immediately recognized Ye Chen's origin power when they saw him shatter the "Death Fruit" micro-world using it.

Although Qing Shan Divine Master was not on par with those great figures of the fourth layer, he too understood what it meant for a Divine King to wield origin power.

If it were a Sovereign possessing origin power, it wouldn't be surprising, as even he himself could instruct Sovereigns in origin power.

But for a mere Divine King to possess origin power and even drive it forth—this was something that even his greatest protégés could never accomplish!

The one capable of enabling such a feat would undoubtedly be an existence of realms far beyond his own.

It could very well be one of the pinnacles of the Cosmic Sea—figures of the "Cosmic Emperor" Realm, or even the "Master of Numerous Stars" Realm!

Whether "Great Emperor Realm" or "Star Lord Realm," they were absolutely not entities he could provoke.

At that realization, Qing Shan Divine Master no longer dared to target Ye Chen; even his anger diminished entirely.

He remained rooted in the Void, at a loss for how to proceed.

At this moment, a beam of Divine Light streaked toward the location where Ye Chen, Qing Shan Divine Master, and Jiuyuan Divine Master stood.

The Divine Light was so fast that it reached them in an instant.

When the Divine Light descended, a voice resounded directly in Qing Shan Divine Master's ears: "Qing Shan, stand down at once!"

Boom!

As the voice echoed, Ye Chen saw a figure of unparalleled beauty, dressed in purple robes, suddenly appear in the Void.

Just the presence of this purple-robed figure struck Ye Chen as even more terrifying than that of Qing Shan Divine Master or Jiuyuan Divine Master!

When Qing Shan Divine Master heard the voice, his entire body trembled, and he cried out, "Great Commander?"

Jiuyuan Divine Master, standing to the side, also showed a look of sheer astonishment. Bowing toward the purple-robed woman, he said, "Great Commander, weren't you in seclusion? Why have you come out?"

Great Commander?

Upon hearing the words of Qing Shan Divine Master and Jiuyuan Divine Master, Ye Chen's gaze shifted toward the purple-robed woman.

To his surprise, this woman turned out to be the Great Commander among the five Great Commanders whom he had never met before!

The appearance of the Great Commander had aligned precisely with the moment of his confrontation with Qing Shan Divine Master.

Noticing Ye Chen's gaze upon her, the purple-robed woman actually smiled at him.

However, when she turned back toward Qing Shan Divine Master and Jiuyuan Divine Master, her expression darkened: "If I hadn't ended my seclusion, I reckon those esteemed figures of the 'Ancestral God Temple' would have personally intervened by now!"

"Those adults from the 'Ancestral God Temple' contacted me and informed me that we have a Commander who's on the verge of breaking the rules. They asked me to come to Purple Crystal Divine Mountain. Do you realize what this implies?"

The purple-robed woman's words caused Qing Shan Divine Master to tremble uncontrollably.

Heavens.

His targeting of Ye Chen had alarmed those several Divine Masters of the "Ancestral God Temple"?

Though he, too, was in the Divine Master Realm like those figures, he dared not provoke any of them.

The mere fact that they were part of the "Ancestral God Temple," not to mention their overwhelming power, placed them far beyond him.

While Qing Shan Divine Master was at the third phase of the Divine Master Realm, the aforementioned figures were in the ninth phase, on the brink of advancing to the "Domain Master Realm" as Great Powerholders!

Now, Qing Shan Divine Master no longer harbored the slightest thought of resentment toward Ye Chen.

Seeing Qing Shan God King trembling from head to toe, the purple-robed Great Commander cast him a sidelong glance before turning her attention to Ye Chen.

At this moment, the purple-robed woman meticulously examined Ye Chen.

She had no choice but to pay attention to him.

While in seclusion, she had abruptly received transmissions from those figures of the "Ancestral God Temple," revealing the events unfolding at the base of Purple Crystal Divine Mountain.

Seeing Ye Chen being targeted by Qing Shan Divine Master, and hearing the instructions from those figures to resolve the matter, had greatly shocked her.

The purple-robed woman could discern the tone of interest those figures held toward the young man before her.

For individuals seated in the "Ancestral God Temple" to regard someone so closely—what kind of person could he possibly be?

As she observed the Starry Origin Power emanating from Ye Chen's body, the purple-robed woman finally understood why those figures were paying attention to an event as seemingly minor as this.

She, too, recognized what the origin power on Ye Chen represented.

"This youth—could he be the protegé of some Great Emperor, or an even more extraordinary Star Lord?"

Even as the Great Commander, the purple-robed woman couldn't discern Ye Chen's background.

And she certainly wouldn't dare to pry into his origins.

After carefully inspecting Ye Chen for a few moments, she turned to him and said, "I am Fang Xuan Divine Master, the Great Commander among the five Great Commanders of the 'Purple Ore Mystery Realm.' Young man, what is your name?"

"Respected Senior Fang Xuan, this junior's name is Ye Chen," Ye Chen replied courteously.

Seeing Qing Shan Divine Master's evident fear, Ye Chen knew his entanglement with Sima Liao had come to an end; Qing Shan Divine Master would not dare trouble him again.

Fang Xuan Divine Master nodded. "Ye Chen, worry not. Commanders are forbidden from taking action against challengers. I will ensure Qing Shan is dealt with appropriately."

Ye Chen smiled lightly. "You are too kind, Senior!"

Sima Liao had met his end by his own doing, and Ye Chen had no qualms about it.

As for Qing Shan Divine Master—if he chose to provoke Ye Chen, so be it. If not, Ye Chen would gladly accept peace.

With the Great Commander now present, Ye Chen saw no reason to hold any grudges with Qing Shan Divine Master.

His most pressing concern now was to conquer Purple Crystal Divine Mountain; everything else could wait.

Seeing Ye Chen's calm demeanor as he retracted his techniques, clearly uninterested in dragging out the matter, Fang Xuan Divine Master smiled at him. "Though Qing Shan hadn't made a move, the mere suspicion of violations on our part as Commanders necessitates compensation."

"Ye Chen, take this 'Crystal Spirit Fine Wine' as an apology."

As she spoke, Fang Xuan Divine Master's delicate hand turned over, producing a white jade winecup. Then, with another turn of her hand, a white jade bottle appeared.

Smiling faintly, Fang Xuan Divine Master tilted the bottle, allowing a single drop of "purple-gold liquid" to fall into the jade winecup.

Though it seemed like just a tiny droplet, as it landed inside the cup, it rippled outward into a full vessel of radiant wine and Divine Light.

Clearly, this was no ordinary substance.

"Crystal Spirit Fine Wine?"

Even with several feet between them, Ye Chen could sense the extraordinary nature of the purple-gold droplet in the winecup.

Qing Shan Divine Master and Jiuyuan Divine Master were even more shocked. Upon hearing the words "Crystal Spirit Fine Wine," their eyes widened in disbelief.

They had not expected Fang Xuan Divine Master to bring out such a treasure.

"The Great Commander… She's clearly trying to befriend Ye Chen! 'Crystal Spirit Fine Wine'—it's a miraculous substance that even the Great Commander herself seldom uses!"

Jiuyuan Divine Master couldn't help but swallow hard.

Watching Ye Chen stare at the winecup, Fang Xuan Divine Master smiled gently. "What's the matter, Ye Chen? Do you doubt me and dare not drink it?"

Ye Chen did not hesitate for a moment, taking the winecup directly from her hands. "How could I possibly refuse a fine wine bestowed by Senior? My deepest thanks."

Ye Chen could tell Fang Xuan Divine Master harbored no malice toward him; rather, she had perhaps granted him a profound fortune.

Raising the winecup, Ye Chen drank the purple-gold liquid in one gulp.

Initially, he speculated on the wonders of this "Crystal Spirit Fine Wine."

But the moment he drank it, he understood the unparalleled marvel of this treasure!

The instant the wine touched his throat, an incredible surge of origin power flooded his body.

This origin power wasn't of the Starry Origin's destructive nature but instead embodied the Life Origin tied to Essence, Qi, and Spirit—the three vital signs of life!

Merely drinking this single cup, Ye Chen felt all three aspects of his life force grow significantly, as though his very essence had evolved to a higher tier!

Although the transformation didn't directly advance his Realm, Ye Chen knew it was far more valuable than a mere leap in Realm!

For now, Ye Chen didn't fully grasp the significance of Life Origin, but he could sense that this cup of wine had bestowed a fortune of Cosmic Sea proportions. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

This fortune could very well play a crucial role in helping him transcend the Sovereign Realm in the future!

"Many thanks for your divine wine, Senior!" Ye Chen expressed his gratitude once more, bowing deeply this time.

Ye Chen understood that Fang Xuan Divine Master had presented the wine ostensibly as an apology, but what reason did a being of the Divine Master Realm have to apologize to him? This was, in truth, an intentional act of aid.

Grateful for her help, Ye Chen committed this act to memory.

Even though he knew Fang Xuan Divine Master's favor stemmed from noticing the Starry Origin Power he wielded, his gratitude was no less genuine.

After all, help—even with underlying motives—was still help.

Seeing Ye Chen's demeanor, Fang Xuan Divine Master smiled faintly.

Much like how Jiuyuan Divine Master had gifted Ye Chen treasures earlier, Fang Xuan Divine Master sought to forge a bond with him. Establishing a connection with someone who might be a protegé of a Great Emperor or Star Lord was worth the cost of the "Crystal Spirit Fine Wine."

"Ye Chen, you've come to Purple Crystal Divine Mountain to challenge it, I presume?"

"Don't mind us—carry on with your endeavor!"

Fang Xuan Divine Master encouraged Ye Chen.

Challenging Purple Crystal Divine Mountain!

At this moment, with the invigorating Life Origin from the "Crystal Spirit Fine Wine" coursing through him, Ye Chen turned his gaze toward the imposing mountain.

Indeed, it was time to begin his ascent of Purple Crystal Divine Mountain and return to the vast world of the second layer of Heavenly God Mountain, the "Sea of Mist"!

Bowing to Jiuyuan Divine Master and Fang Xuan Divine Master, and sparing Qing Shan Divine Master a final glance, Ye Chen strode purposefully toward Purple Crystal Divine Mountain.
