Primordial Star Scripture

Ye Chen hadn't expected that taking out the life-saving talisman given to him by the East Territory King would produce such a significant effect.

Originally, he had just wanted to show the talisman to make use of the powerful aura left on it by the East Territory King, so the young man in the brocade robe with somewhat of a background might sense the formidable aura emitted by the talisman and become somewhat wary.

Unexpectedly, the young man in the brocade robe seemed to have directly recognized the true origin of the talisman and fled at the mere sight of it!

This caused Ye Chen to shake his head and smile, quite surprised by the outcome.

"It seems that many people directly recognize the talismans from senior East Territory King," he mused.

"I've kind of 'borrowed the tiger's might' this time."

Of course, Ye Chen was also very satisfied with this result. With the young man in the brocade robe scared off and no longer competing with him, that was all for the best.

As for the stall owner's offer to give him the tattered cloth for free...

Ye Chen would certainly not just take it without paying.

He did not deem it worthwhile to be in debt to the stall owner for a bit over a million Black Divine Coins, let alone tarnish the reputation of the East Territory King.

"There's no need to give it for free, just go with the agreed price," Ye Chen said as he directly took out the final bid of one million five hundred thousand Black Divine Coins and handed it over to the stall owner.

Seeing Ye Chen's demeanor, the stall owner certainly dared not refuse or say much else. He kept nodding his head, swept his hand, and gathered the stacks of Black Divine Coins into his storage space: "You are too kind, fellow daoist. This tattered cloth now belongs to you!"

As he spoke, the stall owner even directly handed over the palm-sized blue tattered cloth to Ye Chen with great respect.

Having finally gotten his hands on the mysterious tattered cloth, Ye Chen and Xiaojiu exchanged a smile.

"Ye Chen, when we get back, we'll study this tattered cloth thoroughly," Xiaojiu communicated to Ye Chen excitedly.

"If this tattered cloth really is that item, then you've made a huge profit!"

Hearing Xiaojiu continuously praise the marvels of the tattered cloth, Ye Chen grew even more curious about it.

"Then let's hurry up and find the items we need, and then head back to the inn to properly study this tattered cloth," he said.

After securing the tattered cloth, Ye Chen left the stall and continued to look around the other areas.

It wasn't until Ye Chen had walked far away that the stall owner finally let out a long sigh of relief.

He even exclaimed: "This young man is quite extraordinary, indeed someone who has been given a golden talisman by Lord East Territory King, his spending is so generous. At only the Four Tribulations True God level, he could take out one million five hundred thousand Black Divine Coins!"

The stall owner's words caused all the True Gods who were still near the stall and hadn't left to be shocked.

A person given a golden talisman by Lord East Territory King?!

These watching martial artists finally understood why the young man in the brocade robe ceased to contend and threaten after seeing the talisman in the hands of the young man, running away in such fear.

It turned out that the talisman in the young man's hands was given by Lord East Territory King!

The East Territory King, indeed.

Even with a significant background, how could the young man in the brocade robe have a connection bigger than that of the East Territory King?

As these martial artists looked towards the gradually disappearing figure of Ye Chen, their eyes were filled with astonishment.

For the following period, Ye Chen continued to stroll through the Trading Treasure Hall which was massive, with an overwhelming number of martial artists setting up stalls.

Even with just a cursory look, only paying detailed attention when sensing an interesting treasure, it took Ye Chen three full days to thoroughly go through the entire Trading Treasure Hall.

After that, Ye Chen left the Trading Treasure Hall and returned to his room in the inn.

As soon as he returned to the room, Ye Chen immediately set up prohibitions, completely sealing off the room. Then, he took out all the treasures he had picked from the Trading Treasure Hall.

At this moment, both Xiaojiu and the little monkey were extremely excited, staying by Ye Chen's side, looking at these treasures.

Among these treasures, besides the three hundred thousand Divine Stones Ye Chen purchased to operate the Ice Seal Puppet, the majority were pills and Spirit Grass that could help increase True Qi and assist in raising his realm.

With these pills and Spirit Grass, Ye Chen's time to strive towards the Five Tribulations True God could be much shorter!

However, these pills and Spirit Grass weren't cheap, costing Ye Chen nearly two million Black Divine Coins.

Apart from a large number of pills and Spirit Grass, Ye Chen didn't care for ordinary treasures. The real treasure he chose to buy was contained within a brocade box.

When Ye Chen opened the brocade box, inside were nine fist-sized silver beads.

These nine silver beads were a one-time attack treasure known as "Divine Thunder Pearls."

The "Divine Thunder Pearls" were made by a powerful Upper God King who collected the Divine Thunders from a Divine Tribulation, and their attack power was extraordinarily remarkable. Once the Divine Thunder Pearls were launched, it was very likely that even the slightly weaker Upper God Kings could be blasted into injury or death.

Of course, these nine "Divine Thunder Pearls" were also very expensive, costing Ye Chen a full five million Black Divine Coins.

Yet, having such an ace up his sleeve, Ye Chen would not feel helpless when entering the Nine Suns Ancient Land again against True Gods like the young man in the brocade robe who had taken out a puppet with the combat power of an Upper God King.

Even if it was not possible to kill them outright, inflicting serious injuries was still doable.

After all, Ye Chen couldn't always rely on the life-saving talisman given by the East Territory King to scare others. Once or twice could work, but if he encountered someone unyielding, wasting the life-saving talisman would be a pity.

Pills and Spirit Grass, Divine Thunder Pearls, and the expenses for buying Divine Stones and the tattered cloth left Ye Chen with little of the ten million Black Divine Coins he obtained from the Ice-Sealed Divine King.

"Indeed, whether it's cultivation or adventuring, the expenses are massive!"

"Without Black Divine Coins, I can't even think of buying Treasures or using Divine Arrays to teleport. It seems I need to earn more Black Divine Coins when I get the chance."

Ye Chen sighed to himself.

Although it pained him, Ye Chen was quite satisfied with the Treasures he bought with his Black Divine Coins.

Especially the tattered cloth that Xiaojiu kept reminding him about!

Ye Chen's gaze finally settled on that tattered cloth. He intended to study it thoroughly; this cloth had to have some amazing secrets for Xiaojiu to believe so firmly in its extraordinary value.

"Xiaojiu, you said this tattered cloth is similar to something very powerful in your memory, what is it? Could it really be, as some have guessed, a fragment of a Divine Venerable's Divine Robe from some important figure?" Ye Chen asked, holding the palm-sized blue tattered cloth, examining it, and directing his question at Xiaojiu.

Off to the side, Xiaojiu, too, blinked rapidly and said telepathically, "Xiaojiu, this tattered cloth cost Ye Chen one and a half million Black Divine Coins, so if it's not precious, he'll definitely have to give you a beating!"

"You little fart monkey!" Xiaojiu, riled by the monkey's comment, pinched its cheeks hard until the monkey begged for mercy and let go.

Afterward, Xiaojiu stopped clowning around with the monkey and became serious.

Xiaojiu looked carefully at the cloth, her eyes growing brighter as she looked until she finally said excitedly to Ye Chen, "Those people who guessed this is a fragment of a Divine Venerable's Divine Robe are underestimating this cloth."

"If the Divine Venerables knew its origin, I'm afraid many of them would fight over it!"

"If I'm not mistaken, this might be an 'Extreme Heavenly Object' that hasn't been fully cultivated to success!"

Extreme Heavenly Object?

Hearing this term from Xiaojiu, Ye Chen was startled.

He had heard of Heaven-reaching Divine Artifacts at the God King Level, Mysterious Heavenly Divine Artifacts at the Divine Venerable Level, and Ultimate Heavenly Artifacts at the Sovereign Level.

And with the term "Extreme Heavenly," it must be related to the Sovereign Level Treasures.

Could it be that this tattered cloth had something to do with Sovereign Level Treasures?

This gave Ye Chen a huge shock!

If it was related to Sovereign Level Treasures, then its value was too great, how could it have ended up in the hands of that stall owner?

Besides, if it really was a Polar Heaven Treasure, how could Divine Venerables possibly blast through this cloth? Even an Immortal Divine Venerable would likely be unable to blast through a Polar Sky Level Treasure!

Ye Chen voiced all his doubts to Xiaojiu.

The little monkey beside them was scratching its ears and cheeks, immensely curious.

Xiaojiu smiled at Ye Chen and the little monkey, "As I said before, this cloth is likely an 'Extreme Heavenly Object' that hasn't been completely nurtured. Because it isn't fully nurtured, it hasn't reached the level of Polar Heaven Treasures, so it can only be considered an embryonic form of an Extreme Heavenly Object. If it were fully nurtured, it would turn into a True Polar Heaven Treasure that even powerful figures in the Sovereign Realm would scramble for."

"Of course, because it isn't fully nurtured, someone obtained it, and ordinary people can't recognize its magical properties; otherwise, it wouldn't have been put up for sale."

"Hehe, I have been imbued with countless pieces of knowledge by Lord Emperor Yan; I know a lot. Even as an embryonic form of an Extreme Heavenly Object, others might not recognize it, but I certainly can!"

"If it really is an embryonic Extreme Heavenly Object, even if it hasn't reached the true wonders of an Extreme Heavenly Treasure that can restrain Divine Venerable level powerhouses, fully unleashing its Divine Might would certainly provide you, Ye Chen, with an exceptionally powerful method! At least restraining many God King Level powerhouses shouldn't be a problem."

"In the future, further nurturing it into a true Extreme Heavenly Treasure could also allow you to truly possess an Extreme Heavenly Object!"

Ye Chen was deeply moved by Xiaojiu's words.

"Then let's quickly test whether this is the embryonic form of that Extreme Heavenly Object," Ye Chen, looking at the cloth, "The stall owner and that brocaded youth both tried and couldn't pierce this cloth with God King Level Combat Power, how should we research it?"

Ye Chen asked Xiaojiu.

Xiaojiu winked at Ye Chen and smiled gently, "As an embryonic form of an Extreme Heavenly Object, which hasn't been properly nurtured, others who get their hands on it can't fathom its secrets. Using Physical Combat Power, True Qi Combat Power, or even Divine Soul Combat Power will be utterly useless against this object. But Ye Chen, you are extraordinary!"

"Your Stellar Power is an exceptionally powerful force. Others may not see it, but having been filled with countless pieces of knowledge by Lord Emperor Yan, I know this power is no ordinary thing! I suspect that your Stellar Power can definitely break this cloth, revealing its true mystery!"

Stellar Power?

Hearing Xiaojiu's words, Ye Chen was moved.

Indeed, his Stellar Power was something that other martial artists did not possess.

This was the power contained within the Stellar Divine Diagram of the Primordial Chapter of the Primordial Star Scripture left behind by the Zi Ji Star Lord!

Ye Chen had already witnessed the countless wonders of this Stellar Power, which could even merge with Divine Soul Power to drive the Divine Soul Heaven-reaching Art "Nine Swords of Annihilation"!

He hadn't expected that now even this embryonic Extreme Heavenly Object could be opened up.

"Let's give it a try then!"

Ye Chen extended his finger, and vast Stellar Power began to condense at the tip.

Then, Ye Chen gently swiped his finger across the cloth.

Something astonishing happened.

This cloth, which even Upper God King level black puppets had been unable to pierce, split open directly under the gentle touch of Ye Chen's finger, which was condensed with Stellar Power!
