When the winged serpent's bloodline crystal was delivered, Ye Chen hesitated for a moment before choosing to use the Gate of Essence to recruit it. The essence of heaven and earth is the most commonly used power in the cultivation of the various races in the prehistoric world. Simple yin and yang, the four seas dragon palace, the endless blood sea, etc., are not suitable for recruiting winged serpents.
However, the final result still greatly disappointed Ye Chen. The bloodline crystal was indeed mutated due to the influence of the primordial bloodline, but what emerged was not the Nuwa clan, but the ancient divine beast Tengshe.
The Tengshe, residing below the Four Symbols, belongs to the same category of divine beasts. It possesses formidable strength, surpassing even ordinary dragons and phoenixes. Unfortunately, no matter how strong it is, it cannot compare to the Nuwa clan, who possess the power of creation, leaving one with a deep sense of regret.
"Oh well, it's not a loss since the Teng Snake has emerged!" Ye Chen thought helplessly, no longer dwelling on it, after all, the Teng Snake's power was equally astonishing.
This is a race born at the fourth tier, no different from the three-legged golden crow and the phoenix. In mythology, it is also a divine beast second only to the Four Symbols.
It should be noted that the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise are all beings far superior to their own kind. Take the Vermilion Bird for example, it is a divine bird born from the Phoenix Clan, but apart from the Primordial Phoenix, ordinary phoenixes are far inferior to it. The same is true for the other divine beasts among the Four Symbols, which shows the power of the Teng Snake.
Ye Chen didn't stand on ceremony. After his inner energy was flowing smoothly, he directly brought these Teng Snakes into the Heavenly Court, using them as chariots, just like the Yellow Emperor did.
As the palaces in the Lingxiao Palace were gradually unlocked, various facilities similar to the Haotian Mirror appeared one after another. Among them was the imperial carriage, which was the exclusive vehicle of the Heavenly Emperor. It could withstand attacks, traverse space, and travel among the stars. Only divine beasts could pull it.
After the Tengshe bloodline crystal was integrated, Ye Chen did not stay in the Time Cave any longer. He planned to go to the nearby trade fair to see if he could find some rare civilization sparks or bloodline crystals to serve as the main race in his territory.
"It's in the same place we used to be. There's a trade fair for new lords. Although veteran lords aren't allowed to participate in principle, Duobao happens to be in charge of this year's fair. You can just go in as a staff member!" Fatty said to Ye Chen before leaving the Cave of Time.
Such trade fairs are held annually, usually spearheaded by the government and jointly organized with other major forces. Duobao Group has participated a few times, but the profits were not large, and it was purely out of interest. However, due to the good cooperation between Duobao and the government, it has participated in recent years, which can be considered as giving the government face.
"Tsk, I didn't expect that when we went last time we were still newcomers, and this time we're the organizers!" Ye Chen chuckled, a strange feeling creeping into his heart.
"Hehe! Back then, the organizer was Wanwulou! Can you still see any trace of Wanwulou now? Hahaha!" the fat man laughed loudly as well.
Ye Chen shook his head, and with several black birds and the Four Seas Dragon Clan pulling his imperial carriage, he left the Cave of Time alone.
Xia Qingyi and the others need to coordinate the construction of the Primordial Star. If he were to leave the Time Cave, it would take more than ten years. Fatty couldn't possibly be away for that long either, so this time it would just be him.
Fortunately, Si Meng was there to accompany them outside, and the Blue Star plane was a ceasefire zone, where no lord was allowed to wage war, so there was no danger to speak of.
The luxurious imperial carriage and dragon-and-phoenix-drawn chariot made Ye Chen the center of attention, especially the new lords who had returned to the Blue Star plane. They were utterly astonished and inquired about which big shot had appeared. For a time, he was the talk of the town.
Ye Chen didn't care much about this. Ever since he became a lord, he had always been in the spotlight. It was just a means of transportation. No matter how envious they were, could they really steal it? Did they really think these black birds and dragons pulling the cart were just decorations?
After entering the Immortal Register, these are all genuine peak sixth-tier beings. With the seventh tier not emerging, this is the ceiling of combat power. Not to mention a group of new lords, even those veteran sixth-tier lords would not want to easily provoke such enemies.
Therefore, no one dared to make a move on Ye Chen along the way, but quite a few people wanted to get close to him. It truly lived up to the old saying: "When you are rich, you have distant relatives even in the deep mountains; when you are poor, no one cares about you even in the bustling city."
Finally, fed up with the noise, Ye Chen simply expended some energy to activate the space-travel function of his imperial carriage, directly disappearing into the void and quickly rushing towards the location of the trade fair.
Space travel is different from space teleportation. The latter is to go directly from one place to another, somewhat like Doraemon's Anywhere Door. Space travel is more like finding a special shortcut in the void and building a high-speed rail to get there as quickly as possible. Therefore, it also takes a certain amount of time and energy to travel, but the speed is extremely fast.
Simply traveling through the Blue Star plane from one end to the other would only take a day at most. However, flying in the starry sky, even a seventh-tier lord using faster-than-light speed would need a week or two, or even a month or two.
"Roar~~~" The sound of dragons roaring and phoenixes singing rang out, and the magnificent imperial chariot stepped out of the void, attracting everyone's attention.
"Wow~~~ Boss, your entrance was so cool!" Upon connecting with Qiao Siyu, an exclamation came from the other end.
The trade fair hadn't started yet, and Si Meng hadn't come over. She was temporarily in charge here. When she saw Ye Chen's imperial carriage and the dragon and phoenix chariot, her eyes were filled with shock and amazement.
"There's no other way. My territory is inside the Cavern of Time, so I can only use this thing to get out. Otherwise, I would have to find an airship, which would be too troublesome!" Ye Chen looked at the lord's territory around him, which was not yet fully built, and shook his head helplessly.
He hadn't planned to come so early; it should have taken him several more days to fly over from the stars. But he was so annoyed by the "enthusiastic" companions along the way that he activated his spatial teleportation and arrived ahead of schedule.
"Haha! This is Versailles! Such an exquisite carriage, may I ride in it?" Qiao Siyu said with a smile, looking at Ye Chen's imperial carriage with envy.
"Hahaha, this is the Heavenly Emperor's carriage! The only people who can get on are the Heavenly Emperor himself and his concubines! Are you sure you want to get on?" Ye Chen joked, but it was true. Who would be so foolish as to ride in the Heavenly Emperor's carriage?
"Oh! Is it safe to be your concubine? With my little brain, could I survive even one episode in your harem? Hahahaha!" Qiao Siyu chimed in, but as she spoke, she ended up laughing at herself.
