Douluo Continent: The Phoenix God Returns

Chapter 62 Vast Ocean Universe Cover

"Brother, is there anything I can do for you now?" Li Ye asked as he approached Ye Li.

"Xiao Ye, your mission is more important than theirs. I hope you will go to Seagod Island and obtain the Seagod's legacy," Ye Li said.

"Brother, I will definitely do it. How can I obtain the Sea God's inheritance?" Li Ye straightened his body and said.

A brocade plate appeared in Ye Li's hand. It was covered with a red cloth, and there was something raised underneath, the nature of which was unknown.

Ye Li smiled and said, "Xiao Ye, open it and take a look."

Li Ye lifted the red cloth with some doubt, and immediately, the entire palace was enveloped in a strong precious light. It was an extremely strange thing, which was crystal clear blue and three-dimensional triangular in shape.

The entire structure appears to be carved from sapphire, only the size of a palm. A shimmering blue light emanates from it, with strange energy fluctuations constantly emanating from within. On this blue triangular piece, ripples like water waves ripple; these patterns don't seem carved, but rather alive, shimmering with concentric circles of blue light that cast a soft, radiant glow throughout the temple.

"Brother, what is this...?" Li Ye asked in confusion.

"This item is called the Vast Ocean Universe Cover. In a sense, it is a divine inheritance item. As long as you inject your soul power into it, you will naturally understand." Ye Li said as he arrived at the secret realm of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

The gentle blue light fluctuations were so dazzling that even Li Ye, with his current cultivation level, couldn't help but be mesmerized. He held the Vast Ocean Universe Cover in both hands and carefully released his spiritual power to probe into it.

However, the moment Li Ye channeled a wisp of his spiritual energy into the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, he suddenly felt an indescribable force violently repel his spiritual energy. He was thrown backward, still holding the Vast Ocean Universe Cover. His mind went blank. In his last moments of consciousness, he only felt something hit his head.

The sharp tip of the weapon struck Li Ye, creating a small gash on his forehead. As it hit him, it emitted a unique blue light, and blood flowed out. The Vast Ocean Universe Cover spun around and then lay flat against the wound on Li Ye's forehead, as if it were sentient. Li Ye's blood continued to flow into it, and the original blue aura gradually turned red. The wound showed no sign of closing; it just kept flowing out blood.

Not long after, a faint blue light drifted out from the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, condensing into a very faint phantom. A calm yet aged voice rang out, "I don't know how much time has passed, but we have finally found someone who can withstand the power of the Vast Ocean."

A flash of blue light disappeared back into the triangular shape of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, and the halo on the triangle suddenly receded, detaching from the wound on Li Ye's forehead. It spun around and landed in his palm. At this moment, the triangle had returned to its blue color, with only a slight red glow flashing at its core.

Without the restriction of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, the wound on Li Ye's forehead healed quickly, but he remained unconscious in a deep sleep.

While unconscious, Li Ye felt as if something was pulling at his body and soul. The immense suction force made it impossible for him to control his body. Gradually, the suction made him weaker and weaker, as if everything around him was fading away.

At that moment, a special power flowed into my heart and then slowly into my brain, transforming into a cool sensation that combined with my brain. Although the feeling of weakness was still there, my brain became exceptionally clear. I could not perceive the outside world, but I could clearly feel the flow of blood in my meridians and even sense all the subtle changes in my internal organs.

Li Ye rubbed his temples, slowly sat up, feeling somewhat weak. His gaze fell on his right hand, where he found the Vast Ocean Universe Cover lying quietly in his palm. Strangely, however, its original dazzling brilliance had vanished. Although it remained a clear blue, it looked like just an ordinary gemstone.

"How do you feel?" Ye Li asked, revealing herself.

"It was this that made me faint. I never imagined that such a small thing could contain such enormous energy," Li Ye said, calming himself down.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should have gained the Sea God's approval," Ye Li said.

"So, does this mean I can help my brother?" Li Ye said excitedly.

"Naturally, now you should absorb the Soul Bone skill." Ye Li said, taking out the Eight Spider Soul Bone and the Wisdom Skull of Spirit Condensation and placing them in Li Ye's hands.

"Okay." Li Ye didn't stand on ceremony, because he knew that his brother wanted to improve his strength, and his previous soul bone was entirely projected onto him by Ye Li. Now that he had a soul bone, he could naturally improve his strength to some extent.

"Let's go to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. I should also go and apologize to my sister," Ye Li said, shaking her head.

"Okay, brother." With a thought, Li Ye arrived at the secret realm of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

Ye Li looked at the empty room and mustered her courage to walk towards the Papal Palace.
