The advancement of a lord to the seventh rank is a cause for celebration. The dramatic commotion caused by the advancement of the Primordial Star attracted all the surrounding lords who wanted to celebrate for him. This meant that the lords had gained another high-ranking lord who was powerful enough to intimidate all sides.
Even Grandpa Jian took time out of his busy schedule to come over. He probably didn't expect Ye Chen to advance to the seventh-tier lord so quickly. You know, Dad and Mom Jian are only at the sixth tier, and they are only at the late sixth-tier lord level.
As the strange events on the Primordial Star gradually subsided, Ye Chen finally discovered the crowd and territory surrounding the area, witnessing a lord advance to the seventh rank—a truly rare occurrence.
"Good lad! Impressive! I never expected you to advance to a high-level lord so quickly!" As the advancement was completed, Grandpa Jian's projection laughed loudly at the Primordial Star.
Hearing the laughter, Ye Chen didn't stay in his territory any longer. He also summoned his own projection and thanked Grandpa Jian and the surrounding lords.
"I have to thank Grandpa Jian for his great support, and thank you all for coming!" Ye Chen said, and this was not just modesty. Without the seventh-order energy crystals provided by Grandpa Jian, he wouldn't have been able to stay in the back and open the Time Cave.
And that little world belonging to the elemental spirits—if the other party hadn't given him special treatment, he probably wouldn't even have known such a little world existed, let alone arranged for his clan to go there. Nuwa wouldn't have been able to gain any insights into creating life from it.
Since Nuwa was unable to create the human race, the Primordial Star still has a long way to go to advance and it is impossible for it to advance to the seventh rank so quickly.
It should be noted that he encountered almost no obstacles on his way from the peak of the sixth rank to the seventh rank. It can be said that as soon as he reached the peak of the sixth rank, he continued to move towards the seventh rank. This is a threshold that has blocked countless lords, and less than one in ten can cross it.
"Hahaha! No need to be modest. Being able to advance to the seventh rank is your own achievement. The war in the Demon Flame Plane is currently at its most intense. Your advancement is just in time. We can give it a try and see if we can completely annihilate this source of darkness together. Then the crisis of the entire Demon Flame Plane will be resolved!" Grandpa Jian laughed heartily, extremely satisfied with his grandson-in-law Ye Chen.
“Grandpa Jian is right, but I’m afraid it will take some time. I have just completed my advancement, and my territory and my clans are not yet stable. Once the situation in my territory has stabilized, I will join Grandpa Jian in conquering the source of darkness!” Ye Chen bowed and replied.
Currently, there are still many sixth-tier peak clans in the entire territory attempting to break through to the seventh tier. Moreover, having experienced the huge upheaval of the territory's advancement, the homes of all clans and citizens need to be rebuilt and repaired, which will require a certain amount of time to settle down.
“No problem! The source of darkness won’t be short of ten or fifteen days. Once you’ve fully mastered the power of the seventh rank, we’ll set off again!” Grandpa Jian laughed.
The two men's words excited the many lords around them. The battles in the dark starry sky were endless, and everyone felt exhausted. Now that they had the strength to completely eliminate the source of darkness, they were happy to go on the expedition with the two men.
"Count me in to conquer the source of darkness!"
"Count me in too!"
"Count me in!"
"..."
Many people spoke up, wanting to join Ye Chen and Grandpa Jian's army to completely eradicate the source of darkness here.
After thanking and comforting the crowd for a while, the crowd gradually dispersed. However, most of them had their families present Ye Chen with congratulatory gifts. The gifts varied in value, but Ye Chen accepted them all without hesitation.
Most people wouldn't pass up such an opportunity to curry favor with a high-ranking lord, after all, there are only a handful of seventh-rank lords on the Blue Star plane, and everyone must be registered with the authorities, and Ye Chen was no exception after his return.
After the gifts were given, everyone finally dispersed. Ye Chen rubbed his face, which was almost stiff from smiling, and returned to the Primordial Star with Jian Mengyi. Only then did he have time to observe the changes on the Primordial Star.
The most immediate impact was the further expansion of its territory. If the previous primordial planet was barely larger than Jupiter, the current primordial planet is now comparable to half the sun.
Even if it stays still, it can easily attract small planets and meteorites from the surrounding area to fall into the Primordial Star. The most direct manifestation of the increase in extraterrestrial meteorites is the formation of high-grade rare minerals on the Primordial Star.
High-grade ores, which were once rare, are now commonplace. This means that the level of weapons and equipment on the entire Primordial Star will soon be greatly improved, and the overall combat power will experience a qualitative leap.
The expansion of the territory and the increase in meteorites are merely additional effects brought about by the territory's advancement. What Ye Chen truly values is the accelerated growth and even advancement of the various clan nests triggered by the territory's advancement to the seventh tier.
The Silver Leaf Laurel Tree, the Crimson Sun Wutong Tree, and the Four Seas Dragon Palace are all fine, but the truly important Lingxiao Heavenly Court, Fengdu City, and the Gate of Essence have all changed due to the advancement of their territories, which has never happened before.
After the Nine Heavens, Lingxiao Heavenly Court actually opened the Nine Heavens again. This Nine Heavens is different from the existing Nine Heavens. It is a chaotic place and not suitable for survival. Even a seventh-order demigod level expert cannot stay for long inside. Ye Chen does not know what is inside.
However, the opening of the Nine Heavens more than doubled the speed at which the Lingxiao Heavenly Court was born. In addition, the expansion of the Taiyin and Taiyang stars led to the strengthening of the Qi Gate, and the spiritual energy of the entire Primordial Star was rapidly growing stronger under the nourishment of the Heavenly Court.
In addition, Fengdu City, the underworld, also underwent changes due to the advancement of the Primordial Star. The Samsara Palace opened ahead of schedule. Although the Six Paths of Reincarnation inside was not truly opened, the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation that was released was increasing. If Ye Chen could send ten people into reincarnation a day before, he could now send at least a thousand people into reincarnation a day.
"It seems that the one who influences the power of reincarnation is not Fengdu City or Yama, but the person who can control reincarnation!" Ye Chen thought to himself, looking towards Dongsheng Divine Continent. He saw Houtu, with a human head and a snake tail, walking on the earth, with wisps of resentment surrounding her. Her beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she looked towards the far west, with a hint of doubt and hesitation in her eyes.
Finally, to the astonishment of Ye Chen and the many witch clans, she took to the air and flew towards Fengdu City, as if something there was attracting her.
