Chapter 218: Staying Abstinent for Ten Thousand Years

Ye Chen immediately thought of the Ye Clan's valley. 'I'll bring it back to the Ye Clan and plant it in the valley. I wonder what it'll be like after it grows.' Ye Chen could feel that this tree had powerful vitality. It should be quite extraordinary!

It seemed like Ye Chen would have to return to Ye Castle. After this auction was over, he would take a long detour and return to Ye Castle.

Ye Chen had not seen his father, eldest brother, second brother, and many uncles for a long time, and he missed them very much. Although his granduncle was also in Jadeite City and he missed him, he did not dare to meet his granduncle. His heart felt a little bitter.

Ye Chen stopped studying it for now. He kept the piece of wood and continued to cultivate his Celestial Chi and Astral Body.

Ever since cultivating at Lake Nekros, Ye Chen had gained a deeper insight into the nine cultivation systems of the Nine Astra Skies. The nine astras in his body moved restlessly and slowly metamorphosed. Although it stayed at mid-Earthly Venerable Rank and was not able to advance, the volume of Celestial Chi in Ye Chen's body was increasing every day at an alarming rate. Now, the nine astras in Ye Chen's body could already run on their own, so no matter what Ye Chen was doing, he was cultivating every second of the day. The improvement of his cultivation in one day was comparable to others' in a month!

Presumably, it would take at most one more month to reach peak Earthly Venerable Rank!

His rate of progress in cultivation was astonishing, but Ye Chen was not satisfied. Compared to human beings, Ye Chen's progress was extremely fast, but there were not only humans in this world. There were also many powerful beings like Daemon Kings.

Although Ye Chen's cultivation speed was very quick, it could not hold a candle to Little Wingsy. Little Wingsy's speed could not be measured with the eyes of ordinary people! When he thought about the incomparably strong Tantai Ling, Ye Chen's heart felt a sense of urgency. Taitai Ling and he would meet in five years, but although he was cultivating all the time, Tantai Ling did not stop either!

Besides, was it true that humans were completely inferior to Celestial Beasts? Where were all the human combatants? Why was it that Ye Chen saw so many Daemon Kings but had never heard of a human who was a Godly Venerable Rank combatant?

There were all sorts of mysteries that Ye Chen could not solve now. Only by standing higher would he have a wider view, just like how he did not know how large the world was back when he still stayed at the small Ye Clan.

After cultivating Celestial Chi for a while, Ye Chen's Astral Body moved and disappeared, entering the Heavenly Astra Seal.

When the Purple-fire Astra Lion in the Heavenly Astra Seal saw Ye Chen, he immediately roared angrily.

"Why are you here again?" The Purple-fire Astra Lion was thoroughly fed up with Ye Chen's persistence. Although every time he had destroyed Ye Chen's Astral Body over and over again, he still could not kill Ye Chen. When fighting with Ye Chen, he would end up consuming some energy, and the time needed to break the Heavenly Astra Seal would be delayed again.

"Old Lion, let's keep fighting!" Ye Chen's Astral Body swept out and the gold-armored soldier solidified over his body. The gold-armored soldier waved a longsword and charged toward the Purple-fire Astra Lion.

Boom boom boom!!!

Loud explosions sounded as Ye Chen's gold-armored soldier fought the Purple-fire Astra Lion at close range.

In the past, the Purple-fire Astra Lion only needed the lowest grade martial art technique to smash the gold-armored soldier into pieces with one claw. However, now, the gold-armored soldier under Ye Chen's control was becoming more flexible and the Purple-fire Astra Lion had to display some advanced martial art techniques, but he was still unable to kill the gold-armored soldier with one blow.

The Purple-fire Astra Lion was slightly annoyed and was slashed twice by the gold-armored soldier's longsword. He screamed with anger.

"You d*mn bastard. Now, I'm really furious!" the Purple-fire Astra Lion roared. Suddenly, a flash of purple fire lit up in his eyes.

'I can't move?' Ye Chen was shocked. The Purple-fire Astra Lion's eyes were like a knife stabbing into his body, immobilizing the gold-armored soldier.

"Explode!" the Purple-fire Astra Lion growled. A loud bang sounded and the gold-armored soldier exploded in the air and turned into smoke.

Just a gaze and it blew up Ye Chen's Astral Body? Ye Chen was frightened. He had never expected the Purple-fire Astra Lion to have a skill like that. His Astral Body suffered some injuries. Ye Chen paled and clutched at his chest. He quickly sat down and circulated his Astral Body and after a moment, the gold-armored soldier appeared above Ye Chen's body again, slowly materializing.

The Purple-fire Astra Lion's front paws hit the ground gloomily as it roared. Why was that Ye Chen boy just like a cockroach that could never be killed? If it were an ordinary Celestial Beast, once their Psyche broke, their bodies would be severely damaged and would not recover for at least a few months. If it was serious, they might even die.

The Purple-fire Astra Lion remembered his last master. For him, it was a nightmarish experience.

"Little Lioney, come give me a hug."

"Little Lioney, come and take a bath with big brother."

The Purple-fire Astra Lion shuddered at the memories. 'I'm a male lion. A male lion! You're also a male. Can you not be so greasy with me? Can you not tie my heroic and domineering mane into braids?! Three thousand years. For three thousand years, I've been stuck with that previous master. I've never even touched a single lioness before. Not a single one! I naturally don't consider myself a lecherous lion, but why don't you try staying abstinent for ten thousand years?'

Thinking about this, the Purple-fire Astra Lion wanted to cry. Later, his master was killed by a great power and he was sealed in the Heavenly Astra Hidden Magic Seal for several thousand years. Throughout these thousand years, he did not care much about being trapped inside the Heavenly Astra Seal. At least his male self-esteem did not suffer such inhumane treatment.

At this point, the gold-armored soldier let out a roar and slashed his longsword.

Seeing the gold-armor soldier charging at him, the Purple-fire Astra Lion's eyes gradually became firm. 'No matter what, I'll never become your protective divine beast. Never! There's no way for anyone to subdue me!' The Purple-fire Astra Lion roared to the sky and a purple flame shot up toward the gold-armored soldier.

"How did the Purple-fire Astra Lion suddenly become so powerful?" Ye Chen was shocked but he put that thought aside and urged the gold-armored soldier forward.

With a bang, the gold-armored soldier was engulfed in purple flames and turned to ashes.

Boom, boom, boom!!!

The gold-armored soldier was defeated again and again by the Purple-fire Astra Lion but Ye Chen was unusually firm, and materialized the gold-armored soldier repeatedly. Although Ye Chen suffered inhumanly and torturous pain each time the gold-armored soldier was defeated, he still gritted his teeth and persisted until his face turned pale, and his energy was exhausted. Ye Chen then dragged his tired body out of the Heavenly Astra Seal and fell asleep, snoring loudly.

Cultivating at the side, Little Tanuki saw Ye Chen come out from the Heavenly Astral Seal and lay on the bed to sleep. She jumped over to the bed and watched Ye Chen's slightly boyish face, and went into a daze. She stretched out her chubby little paws and smoothed out Ye Chen's hair near his forehead.

When Ye Chen slept, his eyebrows were tightly knit as if he was suffering a great deal. After all, it was simply unbearable for an average person to have his Astral Body trampled repeatedly until his energy was exhausted!

Little Tanuki saw Ye Chen's frown and opened her mouth to spit out the Illusory Pearl. The Illusory Pearl floated over to Ye Chen's cheek, shining a warm white luster on his face. After a moment, his eyebrows gradually loosened and his facial expression became calm and peaceful.

Little Tanuki's body shook for a moment as if she was in pain. She breathed in and swallowed the Illusory Pearl back into her belly, and lay down with her eyes closed.

The night passed silently.

Ye Chen got up and stretched his back. He felt that he had slept extra soundly this time and was very energetic after waking up. He seemed to have dreamed of Little Tanuki last night. She had become a beautiful woman, more beautiful than the fairies in heaven, and she was still naked. Her body curved perfectly and her fair skin was just like warm white jade. Ye Chen could not help but blush at the dream. He felt that he was too lecherous to have a dream like that.

Suddenly, Ye Chen felt an odd stickiness in his pants and almost cried out. He glanced at Little Tanuki a little guiltily and found that she was still sleeping beside him on the quilt. Ye Chen got up quietly and ran to the bath basin for a bath.

The water was already prepared. How convenient.

Ye Chen changed into clean attire after a while and heard a rustle coming from the bed.

"Little Tanuki, are you awake?" Ye Chen looked at Little Tanuki.

"Mm." Little Tanuki's voice was slightly lazy but very crisp, making it sound sweet and pleasant.

Ye Chen took Little Tanuki out and found Master Apothecary Xuanyi and Great Emperor Mingwu. Master Apothecary Xuanyi and Great Emperor Mingwu had woken up long ago. As for Little Wingsy, he was still sleeping dazedly and had to be dragged out of bed by Ye Chen. Little Squido did not sleep at all. Last night, Little Wingsy put him in a bath basin and he played gleefully in the water all night.

They went out for some food. While outside, it was clear that there were many more people on the street than yesterday. The auction was about to start and there were still a few people coming to attend the grand meeting.

After eating, Ye Chen and the others were led by the auction house guards and entered one of the largest auction halls of the auction house. An Honored Room had been arranged for them.

Among the fifty or so Honored Rooms, more than twenty were already occupied. There were even more second and third-class private rooms, and the lower hall was already crowded as thousands of people were fully seated. All of them came to participate in the auction.

For this auction, ordinary people were not allowed to enter. Most of the people sitting in the hall were rich businessmen, people from martial arts families, and even some emperors from small countries.

In an hour, groups of people came in one after another, and the auction finally began.

Ye Chen's Astral Body swept the venue and found several Celestial Beast auras. However, he did not find that Celestial Beast Daemon King's presence.

A mature beauty with a hot figure wearing a sheer dress walked to the front of the auction venue. Her hair was tied in a high bun and her brows were thin and sharp. She had big and watery eyes that shone brightly, a high-bridged nose, and sexy thin lips. The woman was enchanting yet not seductive, and there was an elegant charm between her gestures. Under the sheer dress were arms as pure as white jade, and the swell of her breasts made men's hearts stutter. Her slender figure was just like a graceful fairy.
