In this way, Ye Chen alone is equivalent to two Dou Sheng. This change is enough to allow the Pill Tower to reverse the situation and become the dominant force in future battles with the Soul Palace!
"Young Master Ye, we will remember this kindness from the Starfall Pavilion. From now on, we will obey any orders from the Starfall Pavilion!"
Venerable Feng clasped his hands in a deep bow to Ye Chen, and said in a firm tone.
If it weren't for Ye Chen, the Starfall Pavilion would probably have been destroyed, so Venerable Feng made a solemn promise.
Ye Chen quickly declined a few times, but seeing the resolute attitude of Venerable Feng and the entire Starfall Pavilion's higher-ups, he could only let it go in the end.
Afterwards, everyone returned to the meteorite space and joyfully began their celebration of surviving the catastrophe...
……
……
The great battle between the Starfall Pavilion and the Soul Palace was as unstoppable as a whirlwind, sweeping across the Central Continent.
Xuan Kongzi, who was in the Dan Tower considering whether to retire, was stunned when he heard the rumors.
"Ye Chen? A Dou Sheng? How is that possible..."
Although my disciple gives me a surprise every now and then, this surprise is really a bit too much...
If breaking through to the Dou Sheng realm were so easy, would he still be stuck at the peak Dou Zun realm for over a hundred years without being able to break through?
At the same time, the other two members of the three giants, Xuan Yi and Tian Lei Zi, who had also received the news, rushed into Xuan Kong Zi's office, eager to verify the authenticity of the news.
……
……
In the northern region of Zhongzhou, at Fenglei Pavilion.
As the dominant force in the northern region of Zhongzhou, the Fenglei Pavilion's position was now teetering on the brink of collapse.
Since gaining the support of the Ye family, the Han family's development in the northern region of Zhongzhou has been so rapid that even describing it as progressing by leaps and bounds is an understatement.
In order to make the Han family the next overlord of the Northern Region of Central State, the Ye family went so far as to send two Dou Zun powerhouses to oversee the Han family...
If it weren't for the Han family's somewhat lacking foundation, they probably would have dethroned Fenglei Pavilion from its dominant position two years ago.
Lei Zun Zhe tried many ways to break the deadlock, but all his attempts ultimately failed due to the strong intervention of the Ye family.
Just when Lei Zun Zhe was at his wit's end, a person from the Tianming Sect found him, bringing him a glimmer of hope...
Alliance against Leaf!
This is the solution that the Heavenly Nether Sect provided to the Wind and Thunder Pavilion to break the deadlock...
This time, the alliance formed by Yi Chen, the young sect master of Tianming Sect, together with Fenglei Pavilion and Binghe Valley, is to have a good fight with the Ye family in the northern region of Zhongzhou. If there is an opportunity, they don't mind making the Ye family suffer a great loss!
After all, they had already investigated and found that the plan in the Northern Region of Central State was an independent action by the Ye family and had nothing to do with the Pill Tower, so they didn't need to worry about being retaliated against by the Pill Tower.
As for Ye Chen, the young president of the Pill Tower, he might stand up for his family, but with the experts from the Heavenly Nether Sect brought by Yi Chen in charge, they wouldn't be afraid of him!
Just as the three-way alliance was reaching its most crucial point, news of the great battle in the Tianxing Mountains reached their ears...
Then, without any discussion, the three parties quietly went back to their own homes and mothers.
And so, a conspiracy against the Ye family ended abruptly before it even truly began.
Chapter 397 Xuan Kongzi's Resignation
Three days later, at the Starfall Pavilion.
Silently, a figure appeared in the sky above the entire Starfall Pavilion, and then a vast, gentle aura instantly enveloped the entire city.
For a moment, countless disciples of the Starfall Pavilion, still reeling from the previous crisis, were somewhat alarmed. But once they recognized the figure, their joy turned to elation...
"It's the Pavilion Master, it's the Medicine Venerable!"
Xiao Yan and Venerable Feng immediately soared into the sky, followed closely by a group of high-ranking elders from the Starfall Pavilion...
"Teacher, you're finally awake!"
"Xiao Yan's eyes were a little red as he looked at the familiar figure in front of him and said excitedly."
"Hehe, little guy, I'm sorry you've had to go through all this time..."
Looking at his disciple, the old doctor's eyes revealed endless gentleness.
He knew very well how difficult it would be to revive himself, but the little guy still managed to do it in the end.
This time, he finally wasn't blind enough to entrust everything to a heartless scoundrel!
"Old man, you've finally woken up. You almost didn't get to see us all..." Venerable Feng said with a smile, but his tone was full of emotion.
"Hmm? Has the Soul Palace come looking for trouble?" Yao Lao frowned, and suddenly a heavy aura echoed in this space.
Venerable Feng was slightly surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Old friend, have you... recovered to your peak?"
Just a moment ago, the aura that Yao Chen emitted was definitely at the peak of the Dou Zun level!
"Heh, the peak? Maybe it's not even that..."
The old doctor said with a smile in his eyes.
"I am now a demigod!"
Half Saint!
Within the astral plane, all eyes were fixed on the aged figure in the sky. Those two simple words, to their ears, sounded like a thunderbolt...
"Half-Saint...you old fellow...you've actually reached that level."
Venerable Feng and the others stared at Yao Chen in disbelief. After a long while, a look of extreme joy finally appeared in their eyes!
The title "half-saint" has "half" in it, but no matter what, it is always associated with the word "saint" that represents the pinnacle. This is a qualitative leap!
"Starfall Pavilion is about to flourish..." The many elders who had previously worried about the future of Starfall Pavilion now shared the same emotion as Venerable Feng...
ecstasy!
Finally, their Starfall Pavilion has produced a powerhouse who can be called a peak expert!
From now on, it won't be so easy for the Soul Hall to attack us directly like before!
Above, Xiao Yan was also filled with surprise...
The fact that Yao Lao was able to break through to the peak of Dou Zun and step into the level of Half Saint was a great surprise to him!
Although the materials used to forge his teacher's body were all top-grade, and even with Ye Chen's help, a Dou Sheng's thigh was added in the end, he never imagined that his teacher could actually become such a thick thigh...
Although Xiao Yan himself has not yet reached the Dou Zun realm, he is well aware of the difficulty of breaking through to Dou Zun.
While Dou Zun level experts are relatively rare on this Central Continent, they are far from being as rare as phoenix feathers or unicorn horns...
As for the legendary Dou Sheng, with Xiao Yan's current experience, he had only seen him once three days ago, when Ye Chen summoned the Heavenly Dragon True Body for less than a minute.
Possible
Unexpectedly, just three days later, I actually have a "Saint" level teacher... Yao Lao should also be considered a quasi-Battle Saint level expert. After all, although there is a "half" in Half Saint, no matter what, he is still a Saint!
Inside the main hall of the Starfall Pavilion, Xiao Yan recounted the events that had transpired to his teacher in detail.
When the Soul Palace army was pressing in and the Starfall Pavilion was in imminent danger, Elder Yao's face had become extremely grim...
When Yao Chen heard that Ye Chen had stepped in to help and even single-handedly wiped out the entire Soul Palace army, even he was stunned.
"A dragon at the Dou Sheng level? How is that possible... Even in my memory, there have been almost no dragons of that level on the entire continent?"
If Ye Chen had only summoned a Dou Sheng-level expert as reinforcements, Yao Chen wouldn't be surprised at all, because he knew very well just how strong the Pill Tower was.
But the dragon race...
The old man frowned, looked at Xiao Yan, and asked, "Little guy, you're closest to Ye Chen, do you know what his relationship is with the Dragon Clan?"
Upon hearing his teacher's question, Xiao Yan recalled the little girl Zi Yan he had met in the Dou Sheng Ruins, as well as the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, and nodded solemnly...
After Xiao Yan slowly recounted everything he knew, Yao Chen nodded in understanding.
"So that's how it is... It's actually the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit..."
"If that's the case, then it's not surprising that the dragons would make this choice."
Hearing Yao Chen's words, Venerable Feng and the others became even more puzzled...
"What exactly is this Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit? That it would make the Dragon Clan send a Dou Sheng-level expert to help Ye Chen..."
The Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit, something that only exists in the records of the Dragon Clan and the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, is something that not many people in the Central Continent know about.
And Yao Lao was one of the people who knew its value.
"For the dragon race, the Dragon-Phoenix Origin Fruit is far more precious than a Dou Sheng!"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Starfall Pavilion felt a chill run down their spines, and their respect and regard for Ye Chen deepened even further...
"Let's go, I also need to get to know this Young Master Ye better..." After saying that, Yao Lao was the first to get up and, led by Xiao Yan, headed to where Ye Chen was in seclusion.
……
……
Inside the Dan Tower, in the conference hall on the top floor.
The three giants of the Dan Tower, the elders, and even Ye Zhong, who had just emerged from seclusion, were all present.
"I have gathered everyone here today to announce something..." Xuan Kongzi glanced at everyone present and said in a deep voice.
Everyone wore serious expressions, quietly waiting for Xuan Kongzi to continue.
"You've all heard the rumors about Ye Chen, haven't you?"
The elders exchanged glances, and then Qiu Ling, the eldest elder, spoke up: "President, is the rumor true? Does Young President Ye Chen really have the combat power of a Dou Sheng?"
This was something that no one present could believe, not even Ye Zhong, the grandfather.
Xuan Kongzi swept his gaze over all the doubtful eyes, then suddenly chuckled and said, "That's right, I've received definite information from Chen'er. Although his cultivation has just broken through to the six-star Dou Zun level, he does indeed possess the combat power of a Dou Sheng..."
"And that's precisely why I've gathered everyone here today; I've made a decision..."
"I have decided to step down as president of the Danta Association and let Ye Chen officially take over the position. Does anyone have any objections?"
Chapter 398 The Great Changes in the Pill Tower
Xuan Kongzi's words shocked many people present.
However, as if the shock wasn't enough for them, Xuan Yi and Tian Lei Zi also said the same thing...
"We have also decided to step down from our positions as president of the Danta..."
Well, all three leaders of the Pill Tower have chosen to step down at once, and the Pill Tower is destined to undergo a great change!
"Well... three presidents, besides Young President Ye Chen, have you chosen two other successors?"
Elder Qiu Ling hesitated before asking.
"As for the other two successors, we already have candidates for now, but they are not yet capable of shouldering the responsibilities of a giant in the Pill Tower, so we need to give them enough time to grow..." Xuan Yi said directly.
In fact, everyone present knew very well that the candidate Xuan Yi was referring to was most likely two out of Cao Ying, Song Qing, and Dan Chen.
Although the latter cannot be strictly considered a member of the Pill Tower, if she has enough strength, getting her to join the Pill Tower would be a simple matter of a word.
“If that’s the case, wouldn’t it mean that only one person will be in charge of the Pill Tower from now on? Isn’t that inappropriate?” an elder immediately raised his concerns.
The reason why the Dan Tower has three giants is not just to show that they have many strong members, but more importantly, it is for the purpose of balance...
As one of the top powers in the entire Central Continent, the power of the Dan Tower giants is truly terrifying. If it were simply handed over to one person, people both outside and inside the Dan Tower would probably be uneasy.
Xuan Kongzi's original intention was to step down himself and let Ye Chen take over, so that the three giants could still maintain a balance.
Unfortunately, after Xuan Yi and Tian Lei Zi learned of this proposal, they both expressed the same idea and were very determined. In the end, Xuan Kong Zi had no choice but to agree.
"Don't worry, given the growth rate of the other two, they will have enough strength and qualifications to serve as giants of the Pill Tower in less than ten years. Your concerns are not a problem," Xuan Yi said directly.
Unfortunately, Ye Chen's growth not only affected his teacher Xuan Kongzi, but also Xuan Yi and Tian Leizi.
It should be noted that Xuan Kongzi usually handles most of the matters in the Pill Tower, while Xuan Yi and Tian Leizi spend most of their time in arduous cultivation, except for some necessary situations. Even so, they are still slightly inferior to Xuan Kongzi.
If Xuan Kongzi were to abandon his duties and enter the Little Pill Tower to focus on arduous cultivation, he would likely leave the two of them far behind, which is something neither of them can accept.
After learning of Xuan Kongzi and the other two's determination, the elders had no choice but to acquiesce.
However, if Ye Chen inherits the position of the Dan Tower President, how should the Ye family conduct itself?
