Chapter 1953: Chapter 861: Ashes Fall, The Evil Demon Astonished Changes

Leaving the Valley of Split Path, Han Yi followed the Chaos Star Map and headed directly towards the Primordial Demon Dao Domain. In less than two days, he had passed through the tunnel and stepped into the Primordial Demon Dao Domain.

After entering the Primordial Demon Dao Domain, he did not rush to return to the Fu Heng Taoist Area, but rather searched for the ruins of Ashen Mountain where the Chongxuan Stele was discovered years ago near the boundary. However, he found that the ruins of the region had long disappeared.

Such ruins, which emerge from deep layers of space, are likely to sink back into the deeper space and drift elsewhere or be completely destroyed by some powerful Heavenly Sovereigns.

He tore through space and directly entered the Eighth Layer of Chaotic Space, and even briefly glimpsed the ninth layer, but without finding any traces of the ruins, he had no choice but to give up.

Standing in the Chaos, he pondered for a moment, then headed towards a certain position. In less than thirty minutes, a vast and grand piece of land appeared before him.

Emperor Xuan Continent.

Back when Han Yi obtained the Chongxuan Stele, he was in the Daoist Fruit Realm and encountered a cultivator from the Outer Path Realm, who came from the Emperor Xuan Sect. The Emperor Xuan Sect is the first Sect of the Emperor Xuan Continent, or rather, Emperor Xuan Continent was established relying on the Emperor Xuan Sect. Apart from it, there are numerous Dao Realm Sects on this vast continent.

This pattern is similar to that of the Daoist God Continent and Dao God Sect, Heavenly Destiny Continent and Yutian Dao Palace, and Destiny Tao Palace.

However, Emperor Xuan Continent is relatively smaller, and the Emperor Xuan Sect ranks only seventh amongst the many forces in the Primordial Demon Dao Domain. Although it has a Peak Venerable, in overall strength, it is far from the Overlord Level of the Primordial Demon Palace.

Han Yi came to the Emperor Xuan Continent to see if there was a chance to inquire about the whereabouts of the Ashen Mountain ruins.

He concealed his Divine Venerable Aura and set foot on Emperor Xuan Continent with the appearance of an Initial Stage Heavenly Venerate. Afterward, it took him three days to learn the news he sought from the mouth of a Cultivator in the Unity Realm Stage.

“Obtained by Fu Feng Heavenly Venerate of Emperor Xuan Sect?” Han Yi’s eyes flashed slightly.

“Respectable one, back then I even saw from a distance Fu Feng Heavenly Venerate taking action, uprooting the Ashen Mountain ruins,” the Unity Realm Stage cultivator said respectfully: “However, at the same time the ruins were extracted, a massive explosion occurred in the depths of the ruins, and even Fu Feng Heavenly Venerate was slightly injured by the blast.”

“This matter, apart from myself, is known by quite a few cultivators in Unity Realm and Outer Path Realm on Emperor Xuan Continent, and it is not considered a secret.”

Han Yi then looked for several other Dao Realm cultivators and after cross-checking, he confirmed that the Ashen Mountain ruins were really in the hands of Fu Feng Heavenly Venerate.

Fu Feng Heavenly Venerate is the sixth Elder of Emperor Xuan Sect, a Middle-stage Heavenly Venerate with strong power.

This time, Han Yi came mainly to investigate whether there were any records regarding the origin of the Chongxuan Stele within the ruins.

In the Valley of Split Path, the Hongjun Great Heavenly Venerate said that the Chongxuan Stele also refined a fragment of a shattered Chaos Realm piece, so Han Yi became even more curious and concerned about the mysterious origin of this stele.

He pondered for a moment and decided to stop here. According to what he learned from several Dao Realm cultivators, a destructive explosion occurred in the depths of the Ashen Mountain ruins when they were extracted. Therefore, probably only the middle and outer parts of the ruins remained.

Moreover, even if the ruins were intact, it’s highly unlikely that there would be records of the Chongxuan Stele. Since the stele was placed outside the sect’s gate, it is conceivable that those who obtained the stele probably did not know its true origin.

Besides, if he rashly approached and found Fu Feng Heavenly Venerate, it’s estimated the other party would not easily hand over the ruins to him, and in the end, it would still come down to a matter of strength.

However, on Emperor Xuan Continent, there are two High-level Heavenly Sovereigns presiding over Emperor Xuan Sect. Faced with High-level Holy Sages, Han Yi, although capable of fighting, still does not wish to start a conflict rashly.

Of course, this trip was not futile; at least he learned of the whereabouts of Ashen Mountain ruins, which would allow for further exploration in the future if the opportunity arises.

He prepared to leave the Emperor Xuan Continent and head towards the Fu Heng Taoist Area, but just as he was about to step into the Chaos, he spotted several formidable figures rapidly emerging from Emperor Xuan Continent, heading into the Chaos.

Among these figures, the one leading the team was even a High-level Heavenly Venerate, which slightly moved Han Yi.

“A High-level Heavenly Venerate in action, this must be the Supreme Elder of the Emperor Xuan Sect, Li Zhan Venerable.”

“These Heavenly Sovereigns must all come from the Emperor Xuan Sect.”

Emperor Xuan Sect has two High-level Heavenly Sovereigns – one of them is the Sect Master, and the other is the leading Heavenly Venerable, Li Zhan Venerable, that Han Yi saw.

However, these Heavenly Sovereigns soaring out from Emperor Xuan Continent did not approach Han Yi. Instead, they directly entered the Chaos and headed towards a particular location.

Moments later, several more Heavenly Sovereigns left Emperor Xuan Continent and went in the same direction, but these Heavenly Sovereigns were not in groups, clearly not belonging to Emperor Xuan Sect, and possibly like him, temporarily visiting Emperor Xuan Continent.

Han Yi’s gaze shifted and he stopped one of the Heavenly Sovereigns. The stopped Heavenly Sovereign looked cautious and displeased.

“Daoist friend, what is this about?”

“Please listen to my explanation, Daoist friend,” Han Yi said with a cupped fist salute: “I am Han Yi, not a cultivator from the Primordial Demon Dao Domain. I happened to pass by Emperor Xuan Continent today, and I saw Li Zhan Venerable of the Emperor Xuan Sect leading the team leaving. Now I see quite a few Heavenly Sovereigns following in their direction.”

“May I ask, Daoist friend, has something happened?”

As he spoke these words, Han Yi slightly released his Divine Venerable Aura for a moment, although it was only for an instant, it startled the intercepted Heavenly Sovereign, causing his expression to change slightly.
