Chapter 3685: Chapter 3675: Ye Chen’s Choice (First Update)

This painting indeed carries the memory of Ye Chen from his past life, the first moment when the Samsara Master met Xiao Shuihan.

At that time, Xiao Shuihan was still very young and innocent, his eyes pure without a trace of blemish, like a transparently clean gem.

"Xiao, the martial arts path is elusive and unpredictable, are you sure you want to proceed in this way?"

"Xiao, if you continue to be obstinate, this world will no longer belong to you."

...

As the painting emerged in the present world, all the people outside the Soul Suppressing Forest saw it. They saw the extraordinary figure on the scroll, possessing a transcendent aura that dominated the All Heavens, ruling everything, holding Samsara, and controlling the Six Paths.

"That is..."

Someone tried to utter the name, but the immense power lurking between heaven and earth rendered him speechless, leaving him to express his shock and amazement solely through his eyes.

In the very next second, the scroll gradually disappeared, and Ye Chen turned away, his eyes soft and affectionate as he walked out of the Soul Suppressing Forest.

By the time Ye Chen appeared before the crowd, everyone snapped back to their senses.

And at this moment, Wu Duan Cang concealed the glint and excitement in his eyes, looking solemnly at Ye Chen, "Now, I declare that Ye Chen is the Chief Disciple of the Six Paths Sect!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the earth trembled, phenomenons unfolded continuously within the sect of the Six Paths, and ripples of rules began to surface.

Immense spiritual energy surprisingly emerged between heaven and earth, condensing into a garment adorned with radiant divine light, slowly attaching itself to Ye Chen. On this garment, an insignia representing the Chief Disciple emitted Seven-Colored Divine Light, lighting up the eyes of the onlookers.

"No! How can this waste become the Chief Disciple, how can he freely enter and exit the Soul Suppressing Forest?"

"He’s merely at the Sixth Level of the Heavenly God Realm, it’s impossible for someone at this level to achieve this!"

At this moment, the disciples of the Six Paths Sect shouted in disbelief, their eyes filled with doubt, unable to trust the scene before them.

"Hmph, I suspect this kid used a magic treasure to cheat, blocking the perception of the Soul Suppressing Forest, hence achieving this, I suggest the sect investigate thoroughly!"

"Yes! We must investigate thoroughly, this kid can’t possibly achieve this!"

Ye Chen heard these discussions but didn’t care at all. His eyes flickered, and his mind remained on the painting from moments ago, feeling a deep sense of admiration.

Xiao Shuihan, despite being the disciple the Samsara Master in his past life least favored, was the most sentimental disciple. Even matters within the Six Paths Sect were related to the Samsara Master, which was Xiao Shuihan expressing his longing and deep emotions.

At this moment, Wu Duan Cang saw Ye Chen’s expressionless face and nodded secretly, he knew Ye Chen did not use any magic treasure at all.

Ye Chen could freely enter and exit the Soul Suppressing Forest because of his Dao heart, sturdy as a rock, unmoved by external matters, even if the Ten Thousand Realms were to crumble, it wouldn’t affect his Dao heart.

Ye Chen possesses astonishing heaven-defying potential and a bloodline of unparalleled strength, coupled with unmatched confidence and an unbeatable belief, he represents the future of the Six Paths Sect, the hope for its rise!

"Enough!"

At this moment, Wu Duan Cang did not speak, yet unexpectedly Yang Qianyu stepped up, stopping the disciples’ malicious speculations.

Yang Qianyu’s face was cold as he looked at all his fellow apprentices, "Six Paths Sect disciples are not ones who can’t accept defeat, the fact that Ye Chen can freely exit and enter the Soul Suppressing Forest is proof enough, there’s no need to say more."

After he spoke, Yang Qianyu turned to Ye Chen and respectfully bowed, "Junior Brother Yang Qianyu greets Master Brother Ye Chen!"

With Yang Qianyu’s example, the other disciples were stunned, not expecting him to acknowledge Ye Chen.

And at this moment, Liu Yunmiao, who had lost a bet to Ye Chen and became his servant, also looked at Ye Chen with admiration, bowing in respect.

"Junior Brother Liu Yunmiao greets Master Brother!"

With these two setting an example, many disciples also bowed in respect, acknowledging Ye Chen and honoring him as their Master Brother.

However, quite a few of them watched Ye Chen with cold eyes, refusing to call him Master Brother, as they were unconvinced.

Most of these were inner sect disciples, especially the few top-ranked ones who had been vying for the Chief Disciple position with Yang Qianyu.

Many inner sect disciples were not convinced by Yang Qianyu and did not recognize Ye Chen, remaining expressionless and silent.

At this time, Wu Duan Cang was aware of all this, but he chose not to intervene, simply looking at Ye Chen with a lighthearted smile.

"The Chief Disciple may choose a place for cultivation at his own will, Ye Chen, where would you like to choose?"

Wu Duan Cang looked at Ye Chen, increasingly satisfied, also filled with expectations. If Ye Chen were not to meet any unforeseen circumstances, he’s almost destined to become an unparalleled existence, perhaps even fulfilling a monumental wish—to make the Six Paths Sect the first sect of the Outer Realm.

Possibly even return to the Heavenly Human Domain!

"A place for cultivation, huh."

Hearing this, Ye Chen came back to himself from contemplation, his eyes sweeping across the whole Six Paths Sect, releasing his spiritual sense.

The Six Paths Sect was vast; along every place his spiritual sense swept, he became aware of every cultivation spot’s quality.

Among them were several exceptional places, incredibly rich in spiritual energy, even giving rise to phenomena. Yet Ye Chen’s spiritual sense lingered in a barren place where spiritual energy was exhausted at this moment.

This, too, was a great mountain, ranking among the forefront peaks within the Six Paths Sect, towering into the clouds, appearing magnificent, but it was strangely deficient in spiritual energy.

"This place..."

Ye Chen’s heart stirred slightly, sensing something, a smile curling at the corners of his lips.

At this moment, the people within the Six Paths Sect noticed Ye Chen seemingly taking a liking to this mountain, causing their expressions to become strange.

Some of the Six Paths Sect disciples even mocked in their hearts, "Indeed, he’s merely at the Heavenly God Realm, with little worldly experience. This Netherworld Peak has exhausted its spiritual energy over the years; no one has ever chosen this place. This kid is just attracted by the mountain’s grandeur, what a fool."

Wu Duan Cang’s face showed surprise at the moment too, looking at Ye Chen with a slight frown, suspecting Ye Chen surely understood the lack of spiritual energy of this mountain. Maybe there was something unusual about this peak that the Six Paths Sect hadn’t discovered over the years.

At this moment, Ye Chen had already spoken, "This mountain, I choose it."

"Netherworld Peak, huh?" Wu Duan Cang wasn’t surprised, having anticipated Ye Chen choosing this mountain, yet he reminded once more, "This mountain has exhausted its spiritual energy, are you sure you wish to choose it?"

"Of course, I’m certain."

Hearing Wu Duan Cang’s words, a smile formed on Ye Chen’s lips, speaking with unwavering assurance.

With these words, Wu Duan Cang had no objections and immediately announced, "Alright, from now on, this mountain is yours, your place for cultivation."

"Thank you, Sect Master."

Ye Chen didn’t hesitate and flew straight toward Netherworld Peak, without any delay.

Ye Chen had already sensed the unusual nature of Netherworld Peak, eager to explore whether it was as he had conjectured, hastening his visit.
