Primordial Star Scripture

In the western region of the Fourth Sea Island, atop a plain, five silhouettes were running at breakneck speed.

These five figures, with delicate and graceful bodies, enticingly perky breasts, slim waists, and straight, long legs, would catch anyone's eye and make it difficult to look away.

These five figures were none other than the five female disciples of the Moon Concealing Sect from the Fourth Sea Island.

At this moment, the beautiful faces of the five female disciples were filled with panic.

For behind them, three Great Demons at the level of a half-step Demon King were frantically pursuing them.

These three Great Demons were monstrous serpents, each over two hundred meters long, with exceedingly bright patterns on their bodies. Their teeth emitted a faint blue glow, clearly indicating a deadly poison!

The five female disciples of the Moon Concealing Sect were all at the latter stages of the Spirit Sea Realm. Emerging from the fifth-rank grand sect "Moon Concealing Sect," their strength was extraordinary. Had there been only one or two Great Demons of a half-step Demon King level, they might have coped with the combined efforts of them all.

But when these three gigantic serpent demons attacked together, the disciples were only able to resist for three moves before they were at a disadvantage.

If they hadn't acted quickly, mastering formidable dodging techniques, and fled at the first sign of trouble, they would likely have died in the maws of the monstrous serpents already!

Even so, after being pursued by the three monstrous serpents for half a day, they were unable to escape their tracking. Even their True Qi had been depleted by over half. Forced to the ground, they continued to use light evasion techniques and bodily movements to flee but still found the Great Demons closing the distance.

Now, they could already smell the foul breath of the three monstrous serpents.

When the distance between them and the three monstrous serpents closed to just over twenty meters, the faces of the five Moon Concealing Sect female disciples turned pale with fear. They knew that if they were truly caught, they would have no chance of survival.

"Could it be that we're going to die in this ancient tomb?"

"I've been cultivating in the sect all this time, I haven't had the chance to travel around the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, let alone the Barbaric Wilderness Continent. I don't want to die like this!"

In this critical moment, countless thoughts involuntarily flashed through the minds of the five female disciples.

Some even thought, "I haven't even found a male cultivator I like. Am I really going to die now?"

Just as these thoughts crossed their minds, the distance between them and the three monstrous serpents shortened to just seven or eight meters.

Perhaps in the next instant, with one leap, the Great Demons would swallow them whole!

Feeling the increasingly intense stink of the monstrous serpents' breath behind them, and even the air they exhaled swarming around them, the five female disciples turned deathly pale, realizing there was no escape.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Just as the three monstrous serpents were about to catch up, their eyes flashed with a dark, murderous light. They roared like wild beasts, their tails slammed forcibly against the ground, propelling them to lunge toward the five female disciples, even opening their huge mouths and baring their sharp teeth.

"Ah!"

The five female disciples, seeing the shadow of the serpents above them, the gaping mouths, and the sharp fangs, couldn't help but scream, and in the next moment, they involuntarily closed their eyes.

"We're dead."

"We're going to die."

As these thoughts crossed their minds, they suddenly heard an exceptionally clear sound of a sword cry.

Then, they heard the thudding of massive bodies crashing onto the ground.

The five female disciples couldn't help but open their eyes and look back.

What they saw made them incredulously cover their mouths!

The three fierce, fearsomely fanged monstrous serpents that had been about to tear and bite at them, all had their heads separated from their bodies and had fallen dead to the ground!

The three Great Demons at the half-step Demon King level had just died like that?

Who? Who killed these three Great Demons and saved them?

The five female disciples looked towards the sky and saw a sword of True Qi suspended in the air.

Was it this Sword of True Qi that had slain the three half-step Demon King level Great Demons?!

The five female disciples simply couldn't believe it!

At this moment, they saw a figure in the far distance approaching them rapidly.

"Could it be that he saved us?"

"God, look at the distance between us—it's several thousand meters apart! To span a distance of several thousand meters and slay three half-step Demon King level Great Demons with a True Qi Flying Sword?!"

"Who in the Fourth Sea Island has such power?"

The five female disciples' breathing quickened.

As they watched, the figure drew closer and landed beside the Sword of True Qi.

This figure was a youthful boy of about fifteen or sixteen, with a tall and slender build, a handsome face, and eyes dark and lively. As the wind in the void gently stirred, his clothes rustled, and his black hair fluttered with the breeze.

At that moment, the youth was smiling at the five young girls and said lightly, "My fellow Daoists, are you alright?"

This young man, who had made such a deep impression on these five female disciples upon entering Fourth Sea Island, who else could he be but Ye Chen?!

"Ye Chen!"

"It's you, Ye Chen, you saved us!"

The five female disciples from Moon Concealing Sect, looking at Ye Chen's faint smile in the void, felt tumultuous emotions within their hearts!

They had long recognized Ye Chen's remarkable abilities.

But Ye Chen's performance just now was simply too impressive!

From thousands of kilometers away, with one sword strike he had directly slain three Great Demons at the Half-Step Demon King level and rescued them. Ye Chen's actions were comparable to the Rotating Pill experts from their own sect!

This handsome young man had surprised them once again!

Watching Ye Chen's smiling face, the five female disciples couldn't help but feel their hearts pounding uncontrollably.

A nameless feeling was rising within their hearts.

At this moment, Ye Chen reached out and transformed the Sword of True Qi back into true qi, retracting it into his body. Then, with a step in the void, he landed beside the five women.

Feeling Ye Chen's presence by their side, one of the taller girls blushed and approached him, "Ye Chen, thank you for saving us. Where have you been cultivating all this time?"

As this girl spoke, the other female disciples couldn't hold back either and they all approached Ye Chen, saying, "Ye Chen, how did you become so powerful? It's been only a little over twenty days since we last saw you, but I feel like your strength has increased a lot compared to when you first arrived on the island and fought with Wang Luocheng!"

"Indeed, I have never seen a young man as powerful as you! It's almost like you're one of those Rotating Pill Realm experts from our sect who have been cultivating for decades, even hundreds of years!"

"Ye Chen, I heard you're from Taixuan Sect. Fairy Jia Luo from your sect is good friends with Fairy Ni Xia from our Moon Concealing Sect!"

"Right, this time Fairy Nishang, Fairy Ni Xia's junior sister from our sect, has also come, but we don't know which island she is on. I'm afraid your strength might even surpass that of Fairy Nishang from our sect!"

The five female disciples eagerly competing to speak made Ye Chen smile and shake his head.

He looked at the five of them and spoke, "Ladies, we can talk about other things later. What exactly happened on Fourth Sea Island? Why did so many giant beams appear, and what caused all those behemoths to go berserk?"

"I've been cultivating all this time, completely unaware of what's been happening outside. I hope you can enlighten me."

"We don't know either," the five female disciples shook their heads, "All of a sudden, many earth-shaking dark beams appeared on Fourth Sea Island."

"We were outside hunting giant beasts when we saw a dark beam not far away. Then we noticed that the beasts suddenly grew stronger and went mad!"

"Ye Chen, this incident is really too strange!"

"Moreover, before we encountered the chase of these Half-Step Demon King level pythons, we found that many hidden treasure troves had appeared all over the island. We were on our way to the nearest one when we were chased by the pythons."

"Had it not been for you, we would have died at their hands!"

Hearing the overlapping voices of the five female disciples, Ye Chen nodded.

So these earth-shaking dark beams had appeared all of a sudden, and the five of them didn't know why either.

It seemed that no one knew why these beams had suddenly appeared.

And then there were those treasure troves that had begun to emerge all over the place.

When Ye Chen was flying through the void, he had seen areas of spiritual light in the distance on the island; he was heading towards the nearest such location when he detected the danger the girls were in and decided to help them.

With this in mind, Ye Chen looked at the women again and asked, "Would you like to go to that hidden treasure site with Ye Chen?"

"At that place, we may meet more tomb-exploring companions and gather more information."

When Ye Chen extended the invitation, the five female disciples exchanged glances, revealing surprised and delighted expressions.

They nodded continuously, "To go with you, Ye Chen, of course we're willing!"

They appreciated Ye Chen's good intentions. If they continued to move around on their own, they might encounter danger again. And even if they had avoided the pythons this time, they might still die at the hands of an unknown Great Demon next time.

If they could join Ye Chen, their safety was assured, as they had witnessed his strength firsthand.

"Ye Chen, my name is 'Liu Mei,' this is 'Junior Sister Mu Xinlan,' and this is..."

The five female disciples began introducing themselves to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen nodded, taking note of their names.

"Let's go. With the situation as it is, many people may be in danger. We should hurry to other regions and see what's going on!"

In the end, Ye Chen waved his sleeve and flew into the void ahead.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The five female disciples also moved gracefully and followed Ye Chen into the void.

Then, the six of them flew towards the nearest hidden treasure site.
