Hell Emperor.

Chapter 395 Ye Jie - East China Sea
The arrival of the Return to the Life Festival is getting closer and closer. The trade crisis in the Yangshou area of ​​Dongsheng Shenzhou has not yet passed, and evil spirits are about to wreak havoc.

Outside the Golden Wheel Palace, before Ye Jie left, he was saying goodbye to his companions who stayed in the palace one by one.

"After I go to the Wushen Temple, you must maintain order in the temple and make sure nothing goes wrong. If Elder Wanshou... ahem, Fairy Wanshou needs anything, try to meet her needs. If necessary, you can also ask her for help."

Ye Jie was worried about the situation in the palace. If he left, he didn't know whether his companions could handle the affairs in the palace. In addition, the Fairy Wanshou was still here, making the situation even more complicated.

Fortunately, Fairy Wanshou was quite quiet and did not cause any trouble. Ye Jie hardly even saw her. She stayed in the superior independent hot spring, enjoying her long-lost youth.

Even though there were still many issues that needed to be resolved in the Golden Wheel Palace, one had to go to the Witch God Palace no matter what.

Ye Jie absolutely dared not disobey the task assigned by the Lord of the Moluo Palace. Not only was it related to whether he could keep his position as the Lord of the Golden Wheel Palace, but more importantly, the hope of resurrecting Hua Xiaomei still rested on the Lord of the Moluo Palace.

For this reason, no matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead is, no matter what kind of disasters and conflicts it may cause, Ye Jie has no choice but to get the main account of the Witch God Temple!
Before leaving, Nan Linghe seemed to remember something and stuffed a golden stone into Ye Jie's hand.

"what is this?"

Ye Jie carefully felt the golden stone in his palm. The stone was smooth and flawless, and felt as smooth as jade. There was an unknown power in it. Just wearing it on his body made him feel that his soul was soothed. The slight uneasiness deep in his heart now calmed down little by little, and was replaced by infinite peace.

Ye Jie was slightly surprised that such a small golden stone could contain such magical effects, and he didn't know where this stone came from.

Nan Linghe smiled calmly: "I heard from Sister Qingge that this is the Soul Calming Stone, which was once owned by the former master of the Golden Wheel Palace. With it, the soul does not need to worry about fear and can be quite at ease. So she always let me wear it... As long as you wear it, you will not be afraid when you go to the Wushen Temple!"

Feeling Nan Linghe's kindness, Ye Jie smiled helplessly and pushed the Soul Calming Stone back: "What if I take it and you get scared? You should keep it."

Nan Linghe just shook his head and refused to accept the Soul Calming Stone. "I have other family members with me, so I won't be afraid! You don't know what kind of evil ghosts you will encounter when you go to the Wushen Temple. I heard that the ghosts there are quite fierce, so you have to be careful. Take it with you, it will definitely protect you."

Seeing that Nan Linghe was seriously worried about him, Ye Jie couldn't refuse her kindness and had to accept the Soul-Calming Stone.

After a pause, Nan Linghe seemed to remember something and hurriedly reminded: "Oh, when I stood next to the Golden Wheel before, this stone seemed to become hotter. It may be related to the secret of the Golden Wheel..."

Ye Jie was stunned: "Really? Why didn't you tell me at the time?"

Nan Linghe stuck out his tongue and said apologetically, "At that time, Brother Jie and Sister Su Miao were trapped in the Golden Wheel. I was so scared and anxious that I forgot everything. That's why I didn't say anything. I don't remember anything after that..."

Ye Jie held his forehead helplessly. This sounded like something Nan Linghe would do.

"It's time to get going... Otherwise, I really want to study carefully what the relationship is between this stone and the Golden Wheel."

Ye Jie showed regret on his face. If the mission wasn't urgent, he would really like to study the Soul-Calming Stone carefully. Even if he wanted to give the Soul-Calming Stone to Su Miao, he couldn't find her now.

Su Miao had left the Golden Wheel Palace a day ago, and together with Yao Yin, she rode on a magical instrument to the ruins of the Vajra City.

From what she said, the pure glass barrier that shrouded the ruins of King Kong City all year round would only dissipate on a specific day each year. If she missed this opportunity, she would have to wait another year to return to the Nether Palace.

Moreover, even if we successfully enter the ruins of King Kong City, it is not so easy to retrieve the relics of the former founder of the sect from the ruins full of traps and dangers.

There are not only those mechanisms in the ruins. Other immortals who enter the ruins in an attempt to gain something from it are also a threat. Every year, countless talented immortals are killed in the ruins.

After putting away the Soul-Calming Stone and entrusting matters within the palace, Ye Jie said goodbye to his companions and moved to the edge of the continent of Dongsheng Shenzhou.

The waves were surging and the sound of gurgling water was endless. Looking ahead, there was the endless blue East China Sea. Ye Jie's destination was an island outside the East China Sea.

The Golden Wheel Palace is only responsible for matters on the land of Dongsheng Shenzhou. The maximum range covered by the Hades Formation is at the end of the continent where it meets the sea. Beyond that, it is the jurisdiction of the Witch God Palace.

If you want to cross the East China Sea and go to Japan where the Temple of the Witch God is located, you have to control the magic weapon and set off in person.

"Ajie, we are ready."

On the coast, Shen Qingge had been waiting here for a long time, riding his flying sword.

The sea breeze blew, but her clothes did not move at all. Her whole body was filled with a fairy glow, and she was independent of the world. No matter how loud the waves crashed against the shore, she remained unmoved. In her cold eyes, a miniature of the entire ocean was reflected.

Ye Jie nodded. Although he was the master of the Golden Wheel Palace, he didn't have any decent magical instruments to travel with. For a journey like this, he still had to rely on Shen Qingge's flying sword. He thanked her and said, "I'll trouble Qingge to see you off to the Wushen Palace."

Li Fei'e and Meng Junyao were also on the flying sword.

Ever since Hua Xiaomei was accidentally injured and Xia Wei broke up with everyone, Li Fei'e has been unhappy. Even if he wanted to talk to the person he was with, he couldn't find the right person.

On weekdays, Li Fei'e would share anything he wanted to say or anything new he discovered with Xia Wei as soon as possible. Even if he was unhappy or bored and needed to talk, he would find Xia Wei. Over time, their relationship became closer.

It's not that Li Fei'e doesn't believe in her master, she is also helpless. Even if she confides in her master, the calm master will never understand her. At most, she will just get answers like "You are troubled by worldly delusions". Not only can her emotions not be released, but she will become more depressed. Only Xia Wei will patiently listen to her happiness and her troubles.

Now, without Xia Wei, Li Fei'e seemed to have lost his soul. He kept pulling at Meng Junyao and couldn't calm down at all. "Are you okay?"

Seeing Li Fei'e's depressed look, Ye Jie asked with concern.

Seeing Ye Jie coming, the purple butterfly on Li Fei'e's shoulder took off and danced around him, welcoming his arrival with joy.

Li Fei'e rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "What do you think? Hey... I don't know how Xia Wei is doing now. She's alone, without any family members around her. I don't know how much trouble she will cause... If something happens, what should I do?"

Hearing her mention Xia Wei, Ye Jie closed his eyes, his chest rising and falling. Although he was a little worried, he still insisted:
"Don't mention her. She hurt Hua Xiaomei... Even if she didn't recognize me as her master and wanted to fight me, I didn't blame her, but she shouldn't have hurt others. She is no longer our family."

Li Fei'e lowered his head, realizing that the situation was irreversible. His eyes turned red, and the purple butterfly also dimmed:
"But at this time, we should obviously care more about her. Xia Wei must be very sad... If I had known this would happen, I would have gone with her so that she wouldn't be alone..."

At this moment, Shen Qingge glanced at him coldly. Li Fei'e was startled and sat up straight, but heard his master say:

"Even between a master and a disciple who have deep feelings for each other, friction and conflict are inevitable. This is not the first time that this has happened. When Xia Wei figures it out, she will naturally come back."

Li Fei'e did not answer, but heard another voice beside him:
"Xiao Qingge is right. Once Ajie seizes the main tent and makes a wish to His Highness Moro, and Xiaowei comes to her senses, everything will be restored to normal, and we will still be a close family. Family members have such inseparable bonds that can never be severed."

Following the sound, we saw Ren Changhong also rushing over and waving to everyone.

Shen Qingge asked in confusion: "Master, why are you here too? Shouldn't you stay in the Golden Wheel Palace and carry out the tasks in the palace?"

Ren Changhong waved his hand and said casually, "Aren't you going to Yingzhou in the East China Sea? Just take me to Fangzhang Fairy Island on the way."

Shen Qingge was a little puzzled: "Abbot's Fairy Island? Master, what are you doing there?"

Hearing Shen Qingge mention the island, Ren Changhong could no longer contain his excitement. He immediately reached into his sleeve and took out an ancient token.

Seeing the style of the token, Ye Jie was slightly stunned: "Is that... the Immortal Ascension Token?"

Ren Changhong nodded. What she held in her hand was the Ascension Order used to ascend to immortality:

"That's right! Speaking of which, this Immortal Ascension Order was given to me by you, Ajie, and now it can finally come in handy. According to what I heard, the Immortal Ascension Conference is being held on Fangzhang Immortal Island. Anyone who holds this order will be qualified to join the Immortal Class!"

Hearing this, Ye Jie immediately understood her idea. With the Ascension Order, she would be able to ascend to become an immortal soon, so he congratulated her:
"Then I congratulate you in advance. After all, you are the descendant of Xuannv. You should not be troubled by the immortal officials at the Ascension Conference. It is just a matter of time before you become an immortal."

Ren Changhong smiled embarrassedly, his eyes also fell on Ye Jie: "It's too early to congratulate now, there is still a thunder tribulation to overcome... The thunder tribulation now is different from the past, it is more than ten times more powerful. Even if you have the Ascension Order, it is not so easy to overcome the tribulation and ascend. If you are not careful, let alone become an immortal, I am afraid that your soul will be scattered."

Hearing this, Shen Qingge glared at her master with a reproachful look, blaming her for saying such an unlucky thing. In response, Ren Changhong just smiled carefreely:
"Don't worry. I have been practicing hard for fifty years and have long been prepared to fight against the thunder tribulation. Even Xiao Qingge has survived the thunder tribulation, so how can I, as a master, not be able to survive it?"

With Ren Changhong's words, everyone felt much more at ease. However, the existence of the thunder tribulation was still like an lingering haze hanging over everyone's heads. Whenever they thought of it, they were filled with worry.

The cultivation of immortals is a process of stealing the creation of heaven and earth to achieve their own success. Heaven and earth naturally do not allow such a thing to exist. Thunder tribulation is the punishment of heaven and earth's will on immortals. When it comes to the thing that every immortal fears the most, thunder tribulation is undoubtedly at the top of the list. If you are not careful, your soul will be scattered and your body will die.

Even someone as profound as the Fairy Wanshou chose to retreat in the face of the astonishingly powerful Six-Turn Immortal Tribulation, willing to endure the erosion of the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man, and dared not face the horror of the thunder tribulation. This is enough to show the importance of thunder tribulation in the hearts of immortals.

Among the many types of immortals, the celestial immortals who are good at the five elements have the strongest resistance to thunder tribulations, while the ghost immortals who have lived in the underworld for a long time have the weakest resistance to thunder tribulations and are most likely to be killed by them.

Ren Changhong died at the hands of Shen Qingge many years ago. Unless she has great fortune, even if she ascends, she can only become a ghost immortal, and cannot ascend to other types of immortals. When they think of the threat of thunder tribulation, everyone can't help but worry for her.

"Master..." Shen Qingge hesitated, but still said, "I have survived the thunder tribulation and became a first-level immortal. I deeply understand how terrible the thunder tribulation is. If it weren't for the Soul Storage Dragon Scales given to me by the Azure Dragon Saint Lord, with my ability, I would definitely not be able to survive the thunder tribulation, and the only outcome would be death."

After a pause, Shen Qingge persuaded with concern: "Although Master has reached the peak of the Sealed Immortal Realm and is only one step away from becoming an immortal, this one step has caused countless arrogant practitioners to die in vain. Otherwise, Master should calm down for a while. After all, you have the Ascension Order in your hand, so there is no need to rush. It will not be too late to ascend when you are fully confident of resisting the thunder tribulation..."

Ye Jie nodded. Shen Qingge's words did make sense, but Ren Changhong didn't think so:

"Wait a few more days? Doesn't Xiao Qingge know that time is running out? If we miss this opportunity, who knows when we will have to wait? Besides, even Xiao Qingge has become an immortal, so how can I, as their master, be left behind? We must take this opportunity to ascend to become an immortal!"

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her master, Shen Qingge sighed and finally stopped trying to persuade him. After all, this was her master's own choice. As a disciple, could she force her master to change his will? She didn't want to end up like Xia Wei, who ended up parting ways with her master unhappily.

The flying sword set sail, breaking through layers of air currents and heading towards the endless depths of the East China Sea.

Li Fei'e sat cross-legged, supporting her face with her hands, still immersed in Ren Changhong's previous words, and said with worry: "If Xia Wei thinks it through, she is still our family, but what if she doesn't? The way she left didn't look like she could think it through..."

Ren Changhong sat beside her, as if he saw her confusion, and said slowly:

"That's the way it is. You can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family. If Xiaowei cared about her family as much as you do, no matter what choice she made, no matter what kind of predicament she got into, in the end, she would return to her family."
