At this moment, Donghuang was looking at the temple in front of her with a solemn expression. She could feel a familiar power fluctuation inside.

"The gods actually put that thing here. What are they thinking? Are they really not worried that someone else will take it? Or do they have some other conspiracy?"

"And these guys too. I thought the only strange people were this group, but I didn't expect there to be so many more. It's really weird." Donghuang glanced at the people besides Ye Liuyun and his group. Each of them had a strong air of mystery and seemed to have a great background.

After a moment of thought, Donghuang secretly contacted the Moon Goddess, who was not far away.

"Junior sister, the gods are definitely plotting something in the shadows. Be careful later. If you sense anything is wrong, take them and leave immediately," Donghuang warned.

“Okay,” the Moon Goddess replied.

Seeing that no one was quitting or wanting to join the God Clan, God Ayaka had no choice but to move on to the next level.

"Gentlemen, since you insist on entering the temple, let's begin the fourth trial. This trial is simple: enter the temple on your own and find the treasures you desire. But remember, this trial is special and will be extremely dangerous."

"As the saying goes, great opportunities come with great risks. It's not that our divine race is unwilling to protect your safety."

After saying this, Ayaka Shin made way for the steps leading into the temple.

As soon as she stepped aside, some of the immortals who had been waiting eagerly took flight and headed directly to the temple.

Seeing this, Ye Liuyun and the others exchanged glances.

"Be careful, don't be reckless," Ye Liuyun reminded everyone.

Lin Aoxue and the others nodded and followed Ye Liuyun into the temple. Once inside, it was as if they had entered a star temple. They floated in the starry sky, with shimmering starlight-emitting gates in all directions. They didn't know where these gates led.

Everyone who is about to undergo the fourth trial is here.

"So many domain gates? Is the treasure hidden behind these domain gates?" someone asked.

Ye Liuyun looked around, and as she looked, for some reason, she seemed to sense something, and her gaze involuntarily lingered on one of the domain gates.

"Hmm? There seems to be something inside. It feels so strange," Ye Liuyun murmured.

"Everyone, the supreme treasure of my divine race lies beyond this dimensional gate. Whether you can obtain it depends on your own destiny," God Ayaka's voice rang out once more.

Many of the immortals sat down cross-legged on the spot, focusing their attention on sensing the situation within the domain gate.

After sensing the surroundings, these immortals quickly pinpointed their destination. They took to the air and flew into one of the domain gates, disappearing from sight in no time.

"Aoxue, do you feel anything?" Ye Liuyun asked.

Lin Aoxue glanced at a certain domain gate, then nodded, indicating that she had also sensed something.

After thinking for a while, they finally prepared to take action.

"Stop looking around and let's get started. We're already here, there's no going back now. But like I said, safety first, treasures second." Ye Liuyun instructed the group before flying toward the portal he sensed.

After watching Ye Liuyun enter, Lin Aoxue and the others also chose the domain gates they sensed and flew in. In the end, everyone disappeared into the domain gates.

Meanwhile, the Protoss also felt inexplicably tense. There was no way around it; if you had something to hide, you were bound to be nervous.

"How could it be this little girl, the strangest person, who actually chose a place she should never go to?" a Celestial King of the Divine Race said in disbelief. Yaochi Goddess and the others were also completely taken aback.

"No, there's another person who entered this place," another Celestial King of the Divine Race reminded him.

The person closely following Ye Liuyun was naturally Donghuang, and Donghuang's expression changed after entering this domain gate.

"This aura? No way, how did this girl get chosen? Can she take this away? And even if she can, will the gods let her leave with this?" Donghuang felt that things were getting a bit tricky.

Indeed, the treasure trove chosen by Ye Liuyun is the location of the Heaven-Sealing Pearl, a supreme treasure of the divine race.

Chapter 979 Unexpected Events

In other words, Ye Liuyun's feeling just now was emitted by the Sealing Heaven Pearl, but why did she feel a connection with the Sealing Heaven Pearl?

Ye Liuyun flew along the passage, and the surrounding scenery was spectacular, as if he were flying in an Nth-dimensional space.

Soon, a platform floating in space appeared before her eyes, and something on the platform seemed to be emitting an extremely mysterious radiance.

"What, what is this? Is this the birth of a world?" Ye Liuyun stared at the ball of light, his eyes seemingly witnessing the process of a world coming into existence from nothing.

In a pitch-black world, a mysterious and unknown being opened its eyes from the darkness. Unlike ordinary people, it had three eyes. After awakening, this mysterious being seemed very dissatisfied with this boundless dark world.

He traversed the darkness, as if searching for something. Finally, he arrived at the end of this void, where he saw a magnificent and sacred emerald tree. This tree seemed to be rooted in the void, and its canopy seemed to connect countless worlds, large and small.

Not long after the mysterious deity arrived, a fruit that looked like a green apple suddenly fell from the divine tree and rolled to the front of the mysterious creature.

The mysterious creature seemed to understand something. It picked up the fruit that radiated endless vitality, left the place, and returned to the dark land where it was born.

After returning to the place of his birth, the mysterious deity swallowed the fruit in his hand, and then he gained the power to tear through the darkness.

Under his power, this darkness was gradually illuminated by colorful light, and a magnificent and colorful world was born, or rather, a colorful space was created in the sea.

But that's still not enough; something is still missing.

He began to use the power he gained from the divine tree to create, but he didn't know what he wanted to create; he only knew that he was very lonely.

He kept creating, consuming too much power, until he was finally exhausted. But as he collapsed, he seemed to have realized something. His body began to merge with this new world, and as they merged, his body parts began to emit different and strange lights.

For example, the spine suddenly transformed into a golden dragon that flew out of the mysterious creature's body, while its skin transformed into a colorful divine bird, and the remaining bones fused together to become a majestic beast.

However, as the mysterious creature's body gradually merged with this world, the world began to change. Its flesh and blood transformed into worlds of varying sizes, and the cells within these flesh and blood became stars.

Strange creatures continued to emerge from his soon-to-disappear body, such as the eye between his eyebrows that turned into a bead and flew away, landing in some corner of this new world.

As one generation after another of life was born, this mysterious being eventually disappeared completely. Everything about him became one with this world; every layer of his skin and flesh became part of this world when life was born.

Thus, a world with mountains, water, sky, earth, stars, and the universe was formed. However, this was only the prototype of a world. The world they were in was the Pangu Great World where Ye Liuyun and his companions were. The era when the world was first born was also known as the Primordial Era.

Ye Liuyun was momentarily dazed, but quickly regained his senses and finally landed on the floating circular platform.

"I understand now. This thing must be the divine treasure that created the world, right? What I just saw was the birth of the Pangu Great World? I didn't expect this scene to be somewhat similar to the legend of Pangu creating the world on Earth, but there are also some differences," Ye Liuyun murmured.

Not long after Ye Liuyun landed on the round platform, Donghuang also landed, and her gaze immediately fell on the golden bead that was releasing mysterious light.

"As expected, it is the Heaven-Sealing Pearl. Old friend, you seem to be getting excited." Donghuang murmured to himself.

Ye Liuyun also noticed that someone was coming from behind him, so he turned around and glanced at the other person. What he saw surprised Ye Liuyun again.

"Why is it this guy? Why do I feel like he's been following me all along? Is it just my imagination?" Ye Liuyun wondered.

Donghuang merely glanced at Ye Liuyun without saying anything more. She naturally understood that Ye Liuyun must have some suspicions about her following him around.

Seeing that Donghuang had no intention of acknowledging him or taking the initiative to speak, Ye Liuyun looked at the creation treasure with great curiosity. This thing was definitely one of the most precious things in the Pangu Great World. It was a part of Pangu Tianzun's body, and nothing was more valuable than this.

"Will the gods give me this thing? Even if I get it, will they let me leave? I don't understand what the gods are thinking. Does that mean if I take this, they will force me to stay in their territory?" Ye Liuyun hesitated.

After a moment of thought, Ye Liuyun looked at Donghuang behind him again.

"Hey, fellow Daoist over there, why don't you try to subdue this thing?" Ye Liuyun asked with a smile.

Donghuang glanced at Ye Liuyun and then said something that left Ye Liuyun completely confused.

"This item is not meant for me."

--! Ye Liuyun couldn't help but roll her eyes, thinking to herself, "If you have no chance with me, why did you come in?"

However, Ye Liuyun did not waste any time. She carefully moved towards the location where the Sealing Heaven Pearl was floating. On the side of the gods, all the gods, including the Jade Emperor and the Four Heavenly Kings who were not present at the time, looked at Ye Liuyun with competitive expressions.

From their perspective, if someone could gain the approval of the Heavenly Sealing Pearl, it would certainly be a good thing for their divine race. However, the problem is that if the person who obtains the Heavenly Sealing Pearl is not under the control of the divine race, it would be a huge problem.

The person before them had an unknown identity and background, and the Jade Emperor and the others certainly did not want Ye Liuyun to obtain the Heaven-Sealing Pearl.

"Tch, a mere Earth Immortal wants to obtain the Heaven-Sealing Pearl? What a joke! If the Heaven-Sealing Pearl were to choose her as its host, that would be the greatest humiliation for our divine race." The high-ranking members of the divine race were nervous, but they did not believe that Ye Liuyun could gain the Heaven-Sealing Pearl's approval.

Almost no Protoss would believe this.

But immediately, their expressions froze, because the energy radiance released by the Sealing Heaven Pearl had no effect whatsoever on Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun seemed unaffected by the power of the Sealing Heaven Pearl and quickly flew to its front.

"It doesn't seem like there's anything special about it, does it?" Ye Liuyun looked at the Sealing Heaven Pearl that was so readily available in front of him, full of confusion.

"This? How is this possible? Apart from His Majesty, none of us in the Divine Race can get close to the Heaven-Sealing Pearl. How could this little Earth Immortal girl so easily come to the Heaven-Sealing Pearl?" The high-ranking members of the Divine Race were all petrified.

Because it's so incredible.

But even more incredible things were yet to come. After observing the Heaven-Sealing Pearl for a moment, Ye Liuyun suddenly grabbed it. The Heaven-Sealing Pearl did not resist at all and slowly withdrew its divine light, turning into an inconspicuous golden marble that Ye Liuyun held in his palm.

"This? No way, it's that simple? This is the divine treasure that created the world?" Ye Liuyun held the bead and landed on the ground.

The Eastern Emperor, watching from the side, was also astonished, because it was too easy. Even a Celestial Emperor might not be able to subdue a creation treasure. If a Celestial Emperor could subdue it, the Jade Emperor would have already taken it for himself. Why would he wait for someone else to take it?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible." The Jade Emperor was utterly devastated.

Their divine race's most precious treasure has chosen an outsider today, and one such weak earth immortal at that.

"Your Majesty, what should we do? The treasure has actually been subdued. We may not be able to let this little girl leave the Divine Treasury Space. Even if the treasure chose her, we must keep her in the Divine Clan," said the Purple Extreme Heavenly King.

The other three Heavenly Kings shared the same sentiment. Ever since the Heavenly Pearl was subdued by the Divine Ancestor, it had always been a treasure of the Divine Race, and they would never allow anyone else to take it away.

Without hesitation, the Jade Emperor vanished from his spot and transformed into a colossal giant, appearing in the space where the Heaven-Sealing Pearl was located.

The Jade Emperor appeared very suddenly. His enormous Dharma form almost completely enveloped the space, sealing it off to prevent Ye Liuyun from escaping.

"Young lady, I am the Jade Emperor, the ruler of the Heavenly Court of the Central Heaven Realm. You have gained the recognition of my clan's creation treasure, the Heaven-Sealing Pearl, which means that you are destined to be with my divine clan. I have come here to invite you to join my divine clan. My divine clan will grant you the status of a divine princess and allow you to enjoy the treatment of divine royal family members."

The Jade Emperor's appearance came without warning, startling Ye Liuyun. He looked up at the golden, radiant Dharma image before him, utterly astonished. The oppressive feeling this guy gave him was unprecedented.

To be honest, Ye Liuyun really didn't expect that she could obtain the Heaven-Sealing Pearl so easily, but she would not join the God Clan. There were many reasons, but the most important one was that she didn't like the God Clan. The God Clan had bullied her master, it was that simple.

"Is this the Jade Emperor? The culprit who killed the monkey and my master! Damn it, what should we do? I had no idea he would suddenly appear." Ye Liuyun was getting anxious.

However, after some thought, she decisively refused the Jade Emperor.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I have no intention of joining the divine race." Ye Liuyun refused directly.

Ye Liuyun's refusal immediately darkened the faces of the high-ranking members of the Divine Race.

"What? Even with this kind of treatment, she can't join our divine race? Who does she think she is? Even if she has a relationship with the Celestial Venerable, she shouldn't look down on our divine race like this." Some members of the divine race were furious again.

However, the Jade Emperor did not immediately get angry.

"Is that so? That's a pity. What you have in your hand is a treasure of my divine race. It cannot be taken away by outsiders. Put it down, and I can give you other treasures as compensation." The Jade Emperor did not want to turn against him directly at the moment.

Chapter 980 The Primordial Treasure Recognizes Its Master

Since the Jade Emperor couldn't figure out Ye Liuyun's background, it was best to be cautious.

As for Ye Liuyun, although she is destined to confront the gods, to be honest, given her current abilities, confronting the gods is not a wise choice.

So after thinking it over, she decided it was best not to get into big trouble because of this treasure.

"Alright, Your Majesty, please take this treasure back." Ye Liuyun reluctantly raised the Sealing Heaven Pearl.

This was, after all, a supreme treasure from the beginning of creation. Now that he had it, he was going to return it. It was understandable that he was reluctant, but Ye Liuyun was still self-aware.

Seeing this, the Jade Emperor nodded in satisfaction, then raised his hand and reached for the Heaven-Sealing Pearl.

But just as the Jade Emperor was about to take back the Heaven-Sealing Pearl, something unexpected happened. The Heaven-Sealing Pearl, which had just left Ye Liuyun's palm, suddenly burst out with a strong divine light. Under the effect of this divine light, time and space here were suddenly frozen.

This celestial bead seems to be resisting the power of the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor's expression froze slightly at that moment.

What he found even more unimaginable was that the Heaven-Sealing Pearl suddenly transformed into a stream of light and entered Ye Liuyun's body, after which the frozen space-time was also released.

Ye Liuyun was stunned.

"Huh? What's going on? Where did this treasure go? Oh my god, how did this thing get inside my body?" Ye Liuyun quickly found the shadow of the Sealing Heaven Pearl inside his body.

But what was even more surprising was yet to come. The Heaven-Sealing Pearl within her body once again shone with a mysterious divine light, and it seemed as if an eye had grown out of Ye Liuyun's brow, or perhaps a golden divine rune had appeared. This divine rune shone brightly and emitted countless streams of light.

"This is bad! This Heavenly Sealing Pearl has actually recognized its master? This is unbelievable! Quickly strengthen our defenses to prevent this girl from discovering our identities." Donghuang, who was not far away, hurriedly increased his power to protect himself.

Because the Heaven-Sealing Pearl possesses the most powerful insight in the world, in addition to having the power to freeze the heavens and earth, it can also penetrate the river of time and space, allowing it to see the past and predict the future.

After the Heavenly Pearl merged with Ye Liuyun, she already knew what its effects were.

When the Jade Emperor and the gods saw that the divine treasure had merged with a human, they were all dumbfounded.

Once the Sealing Heaven Pearl actively recognizes a master, it is equivalent to being bound to that person. The last one bound to the Sealing Heaven Pearl was the God Ancestor. After the God Clan offended the Heavenly Venerable, they were destroyed by the Heavenly Venerable, and the Sealing Heaven Pearl lost its master and has never recognized a master since.

In other words, once it recognizes its owner, the bead will remain on Ye Liuyun's person unless Ye Liuyun dies.

Ye Liuyun was already embarrassed. She glanced at the Jade Emperor, who was standing there dumbfounded, and then said weakly.

"Your Majesty, this shouldn't be my fault, right? How did this bead suddenly end up like this?" Ye Liuyun said with an awkward smile.

The Jade Emperor remained silent.

"It seems you are destined to be the owner of this treasure. Since the Heavenly Sealing Pearl has recognized you as its master, there is nothing that can be done about it. However, you must remain in the Divine Clan. There is no room for discussion on this matter," the Jade Emperor said in a deep voice.
