Battle Through the Heavens: The Alchemist Starting from the Ye Family

Astrological Formulas

The name of this technique is somewhat different from those on the Dou Qi Continent, but its level is not low, in fact, it can be said to be extremely high.

The Astrology Technique is a high-level Heaven-rank cultivation method that allows one to draw upon the power of ancient stars to refine their own battle qi. Only those with an innate stellar physique can cultivate it.

After reading the introduction above, Ye Chen wanted to laugh out loud three times.

High-level Heavenly Rank cultivation technique!

Even at some high-end trade fairs in Zhongzhou, Heaven-rank cultivation techniques and fighting skills may occasionally appear, but they are at most low-level Heaven-rank.

Especially in terms of cultivation techniques, even those ancient races could only pass down cultivation techniques at this level at most!

At the very least, according to the Ye family's records, no cultivation technique above the mid-level of the Heaven Rank has been found in the Central Continent in the past few hundred years. So unless one possesses an ancient inheritance, there is no chance of obtaining such a precious item.

It's a pity that there are cultivation requirements at the end of this technique!

Innate stellar physique...

Although special physiques such as the Calamity Poison Body and the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil exist in the Dou Qi Continent, the Innate Star Body seems to have never been recorded on the continent.

As for Ye Chen himself, although he could absorb the power of the stars, that was only because of the Star Chart within his body. Moreover, strictly speaking, this power wasn't absorbed by his physical body, but rather by the Star Chart itself…

Therefore, it's probably hopeless for someone to cultivate this astrological technique, draw upon the power of ancient stars, and refine it into their own battle qi.

Scratching his head, Ye Chen felt a surge of frustration.

Seeing a mountain of gold right in front of you, within reach, only to be told at the end that you can't use it—this is just too torturous!

Originally, this was not the biggest opportunity for the Ye family's rise, but unexpectedly, it turned out that even he himself could not use it!

Gritting his teeth, Ye Chen was filled with resentment for a long time, but in the end he could only give up helplessly, put the cultivation technique back into his storage ring, and then looked at the next treasure...

And then, he almost exploded with anger again!

The rare Star Spirit, once consumed, grants the user an acquired Primordial Star Body, allowing them to cultivate astrological techniques...

tmd!

Is this guy deliberately messing with me?!

If you had told me earlier that such a thing existed, I wouldn't have had to worry about it for so long.

Gritting his teeth in anger at whoever left these things, Ye Chen opened his mouth and swallowed the bead-sized, pure white, transparent crystal in his hand...

In an instant, countless starlight descended from the sky, completely enveloping Ye Chen into a giant white cocoon!

Chapter 75 Who Said He Was Dead?

Time passes day by day...

It has been more than two months since Ye Chen was taken away by a mysterious rabbit.

The originally set one-year deadline is fast approaching. If Ye Chen still cannot return to the Ye family by then, there will likely be another uproar.

There was no other way; Ye Chen was far too important to the Ye family. No one dared to allow anything to happen to him!

Unfortunately, Hu Tian was helpless at this moment and could only suppress his anxiety and wait outside the valley...

There was nothing he could do. Although the terrifying beasts in the valley no longer attacked him because of the rabbit, as soon as he showed any intention of approaching the inner valley, he would be immediately surrounded by a large group of beasts, both in the sky and on the ground, ready to attack at any moment.

"Ugh……!"

Seeing this, Hu Tian could do nothing but sigh.

Meanwhile, deep in the valley, atop the silver boulder, sat an ordinary gray rabbit, gazing up at the mist in the sky, its eyes filled with endless sorrow.

The next moment, the originally hard silver boulder suddenly rippled like the surface of water, then a vortex quickly formed, and finally a figure was ejected directly from its interior...

This scene delighted the previously worried rabbit, who then leaped to the figure, its round little eyes fixed on the other, and asked nervously, "How did it go? Did you get what that old guy left you?"

Ye Chen had just emerged from the giant star space when a flash of light appeared before his eyes, and a gray rabbit with its two large ears perked up came to him, eagerly asking a question...

This caused Ye Chen, who had just undergone a transformation of heaven and earth, to be slightly stunned. After recovering, he immediately took a step back and said, "Uh, don't rush, don't rush. If you're talking about a Star Emblem Storage Ring, then I've already obtained it..."

As he spoke, he raised his left hand and gestured to the silver one of the two storage rings on his left hand.

"Great! Haha, I've finally waited for this... How many years! This old guy tricked me into making a vow to protect this place for him, saying that I would be free soon! But what's the reality? I've waited for tens of thousands of years...!!"

Perhaps it had been suppressing its emotions for too long, but the rabbit seemed a bit crazy at this moment, causing Ye Chen to quietly take a few steps back to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Of course, his little actions did not attract the attention of the irritable rabbit opposite him. At this moment, the other party was still using all sorts of beautiful language to express his respect for the powerful person who left behind the legacy of this place...

This made Ye Chen even more curious. Just who was that powerful person?

Having already received someone else's inheritance, it seems rather inappropriate that I don't even know who that person is...

With these thoughts in mind, Ye Chen finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked the rabbit, who had calmed down a bit, "Senior rabbit, may I ask who the powerful person who left behind this legacy was? And why did they pass away? Did they have anything to do down here?"

This must be a common trope in many serendipitous encounters, right? A powerful figure dies unexpectedly, leaving behind their legacy, which in turn requires the recipient to do something for them in the future...

To everyone's surprise, after hearing Ye Chen's words, the rabbit simply glanced at him and said indifferently, "Who told you that old guy is dead?"

& nbs

"Uh...what?! What do you mean? He's not dead?" Ye Chen jumped up in shock.

By the way, it seems that this rabbit has been saying that it has been trapped here for tens of thousands of years. Could it be that this is a powerful being from ten thousand years ago?

However, there should still be Dou Di powerhouses on the Dou Qi Continent ten thousand years ago, right? At the very least, the last Dou Di of the Dou Qi Continent, Tuoshe Ancient Emperor, should still be alive.

The rabbit was clearly displeased with Ye Chen's overreaction. It glared at him and said coldly, "Of course he's not dead! Back then, that old guy was a terrifying being who had been a Dou Di for tens of thousands of years. If it weren't for the changes in the world, he wouldn't have chosen to leave the Dou Qi Continent and go to some Great Thousand World..."

Oh my god...!

Ye Chen couldn't help but widen his eyes.

From the dead rabbit's words, he seemed to have heard some secrets about the ancient Dou Qi Continent!

If a terrifyingly powerful figure who achieved the status of a Dou Di over tens of thousands of years could be said to have left behind the legacy here, then the person who left behind this legacy must be an even more ancient Dou Di powerhouse than the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor.

Based on some descriptions in the original work, we know that when Tuoshe Ancient Emperor became a Dou Di, the Dou Qi Continent should have been in continuous decline, and there was no Dou Qi being in the world at that time.

Tuoshe Ancient Emperor forcibly became a Dou Di by devouring all the strange flames on the Strange Flame Ranking, and was also the only Dou Di at that time...

For the next ten thousand years, no Dou Di (Battle Emperor) appeared on the entire Dou Qi Continent!

As a transmigrator who had read the original novel, Ye Chen naturally knew that the universe where the Dou Qi Continent was located contained countless worlds...

However, the relationship between Dou Qi Continent and the Great Thousand World, as well as the reasons for the decline of Dou Qi Continent, were not explained in my previous life. I could only fill in the gaps in my imagination.

But imagination is just imagination; Ye Chen naturally couldn't know the truth.

Ye Chen wanted to ask the rabbit some questions, but seeing its current state, he hesitated to speak. After all, he couldn't afford to offend it...

Moreover, from what this dead rabbit said, we can also know that when that senior left, he directly trapped the former in this small valley, and for who knows how many tens of thousands of years...

Obviously, there were many things the rabbit probably didn't know, so Ye Chen decided not to ask.

"Kid, let me use the ring on your hand..." Suddenly, the rabbit spoke directly to Ye Chen.

"Uh... okay." Ye Chen glanced at the other party, feeling a little nervous. Was this damn rabbit trying to steal his things?

Whether it was sensing Ye Chen's thoughts or not, the rabbit waved its little paws impatiently and said coldly, "What are you dawdling for? Are you afraid that your rabbit master will steal your things?"

"Hmph! Do you think I don't know what that old guy left here? It's just some worthless junk, some trash that the old man didn't want. How could I possibly want it!"

"Trash?!" Ye Chen's eyes widened, his entire face showing disbelief.

The Star Cauldron, ranked fourth on the Heavenly Cauldron List, contains a high-level Heavenly Rank cultivation technique, a Star Spirit capable of altering a person's physique, and other rare treasures that are seldom seen in the outside world for centuries...

If all of this is trash, then what is treasure in your eyes, you dead rabbit?

Chapter Seventy-Six: Departure

Watching the dead rabbit use its Star Ring to release what seemed to be some kind of control over it, Ye Chen suddenly felt a little regretful.

"No way, could this dead rabbit be a helper left behind by that Dou Di senior? And I just let it go like that?"

According to convention, this way of thinking seems quite reasonable...

However, this rabbit seemed somewhat violent, prone to killing people at the drop of a hat, so Ye Chen wasn't sure if the rabbit's control could guarantee that it wouldn't attack him.

For his own safety, Ye Chen decided to remain silent...

hum...

An invisible wave emanated from the rabbit, causing Ye Chen to instinctively dodge.

"Hahaha, I, the Rabbit Lord, am finally free..."

He let out a very arrogant long howl.

Seeing Ye Chen's wary expression, the rabbit's eyes gleamed with a playful smile. It examined the Star Ring in its little paws, bared its teeth at Ye Chen, and chuckled, "Don't worry, kid, with my status, I wouldn't even look at this trash..."

After speaking, he tossed the Star Ring back to Ye Chen, which greatly relieved the latter.

"It's time to go back..."

Ignoring Ye Chen's thoughts, the rabbit looked up at the sky, muttering to itself, and then let out a piercing scream: "Yoohhh!"

The piercing sound made Ye Chen involuntarily cover his ears with his hands, but the scream was still like a demonic sound pounding into his ears, relentlessly drilling into his brain.

Rumble!

A deafening, thunderous sound erupted from outside the valley, and then Ye Chen saw the dense forest in the distance begin to collapse, with terrifying figures rushing in from all directions...

"This is..." Ye Chen's eyes widened.

At this moment, there were thousands of giant beasts appearing in front of him... and each one was as big as a small mountain, even bigger than the giant beasts that had chased him and Hu Tian to the ends of the earth!

In a short while, the once spacious inner valley was completely filled with giant beasts, whether flying or walking, all prostrating themselves on the ground, expressing their submission to the small figure in the sky.

Ye Chen hid in a corner, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then saw the mysterious rabbit in the sky take a deep breath downwards...

Countless colossal beasts, formed entirely from pure energy, howled and transformed into streams of energy that surged into the tiny body.

Ye Chen's mouth dropped open as he stared at everything in disbelief.

At one point, it dawned on him...

It turns out that the giant energy beasts in this valley were actually "supplements" prepared by this rabbit for itself!

My heart skipped a beat!

Ye Chen looked at the tens of thousands of energy behemoths before him, the weakest of which were at least sixth-tier magical beasts. The strongest of the leaders was probably comparable to an eighth-tier beast, or even stronger…

Such terrifying energy surged into the dead rabbit's body in an instant. If it were a human, even a high-level Dou Sheng would probably be burst apart!

"Could this rabbit also be a terrifying existence at the Dou Di level?" In an instant, such an unrealistic thought suddenly appeared in Ye Chen's mind.

"Impossible... If it could reach the level of a Dou Di, how could it possibly..."

How strong must that Dou Di be, the one who captured and imprisoned here to guard his legacy?

Ye Chen quickly dismissed his previous thought.

Although there are strong and weak Dou Di, it is not so easy to capture another strong person of the same level and seal them for one's own use.

The most likely explanation is that this rabbit isn't a Dou Di, but rather a half-Emperor like Xiao Xuan or the Pure Lotus Demon Saint...

Regardless of the truth, Ye Chen was well aware that this damned rabbit was someone he couldn't afford to mess with.

All I can do now is wait patiently for the dead rabbit to leave on its own, and then I can escape from here as quickly as possible...

Time passed slowly.

Finally, the once crowded valley became empty again. The terrifying giant beasts that once roamed there had all disappeared. If it weren't for the clearly visible damage to the surrounding ground, Ye Chen would have doubted whether he was seeing things.

Hiccup~~

In the sky, the mysterious rabbit, having absorbed all the giant beast's energy, let out a burp. Sensing its current power, it twitched its ears in dissatisfaction and muttered to itself, "Only seventy percent recovered..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen nearly collapsed to the ground. This is only 70%?

Shaking its head, the rabbit stopped dwelling on it and said again, "Never mind, this energy is enough for me to return to the starry universe. So many years have passed, it's finally time to go back..."

Having finished speaking, the mysterious rabbit paid no further attention to a nobody like Ye Chen. It tore through the space in front of it, then plunged inside and vanished without a trace...

Only then did Ye Chen, who was standing there, finally feel completely at ease.

My life is finally saved!

After letting out a long sigh of relief, Ye Chen hurriedly headed out of the valley.
