"What's the origin of your 117,000-year-old feud? Patriarch Yao's friend actually didn't mind delaying the Three Realms' Alliance for you, so he must hold you in high esteem. I naturally don't dare to be slow, but I don't know which city in Hunluo State you're from?"

  Yuan Ye hesitated for a moment and did not lie, saying directly: "Xin Lin City, two years ago still participated in the grand ceremony of worshiping your statue."

  Kou Yi's face lit up with a bright smile as soon as he heard, "I didn't expect another outstanding talent to appear in Xinlin City. Alright, I can also create an identity badge for you that belongs to Xinlin City." As he spoke, Kou Yi shot out a red light that attached itself to Yuan Ye's shoulder, quietly motionless, neither painful nor itchy.

  "Just transfer your breath onto that red grain and you'll be fine. There will naturally be an identity badge belonging to Xinlin City on your shoulder."

  "Thank you," Yuan Ye said, but after doing so, he saw that the red millet had merged into his body. On the surface, it seemed as if nothing had changed, and his body didn't feel any discomfort. However, every martial artist could sense a fierce and scorching spiritual power belonging to the Blazing Flame.

  "Little friend, I see that your soul's cultivation is exceptionally high. This is a sign of a profound technique transcending levels. I wonder if you are cultivating one type of aura or two?" Kou Yi asked again.

  If it were before, Yuan Ye would definitely have muddled through, but coming here and seeing Kou Yi list out countless techniques, if Yuan Ye still hesitated, it would be too much. He smiled immediately: "I cultivate a type of Dou Qi."

  "Preposterous!" Kou Yi was shocked and immediately said: "Relying on a single type of fighting energy to challenge someone above your level, I'm afraid your skills are quite impressive. I won't ask any more questions then."

  "Isn't Senior curious? I saw many skills listed outside the door." Yuan Ye was somewhat surprised, he was originally still worried, Kou Yi asked him about the Inverse Heaven Snow, how should he answer.

  "I didn't expect Kou Yi to laugh and say, 'The kung fu outside is all very ordinary. Even if there are profound kung fu, they are incomplete. No matter who it is, they cherish their own kung fu deeply. Profound kung fu is something that belongs to the major powers, so it's not easy to lose. Therefore, they are also unwilling to share everything.'"

  "Oh, I see." Yuan Ye nodded and asked again: "Senior, do you know why the Flame Continent and the Frost Continent have been killing each other endlessly?"

  Kou Yi was taken aback for a moment, and immediately asked back: "You're very curious about this?"

  "Two continents have been killing each other for tens of thousands of years, with countless deaths. I really don't understand why it's like this. Even if it's a grudge between the two Primordials, it shouldn't continue to this day, but rather establish new Primordials and let the two continents prosper." Yuan Ye immediately expressed his thoughts, he wanted to stop the war, and to do so, he had to understand its origin.

  Kou Yi's face turned solemn as he said, "It is precisely because we are all unable to establish a new Primordial that this slaughter has continued for tens of thousands of years."

  "What... what does this mean?" Yuan Ye was puzzled.

  "As long as one is human, obtaining the two Great Spirit Pearls will give them a chance to become the new Supreme Ruler. However, 30,000 years ago, the two Great Supreme Rulers perished together. Unfortunately, I, Lie Yan Yun, fell on the Ice Abyss Continent, while the Ice Abyss Supreme Ruler fell on our continent. The four Great Spirit Pearls scattered and flew off in different directions, their whereabouts unknown.

  Becoming a Supreme Ruler, reaching the highest realm - what a tempting prospect! Every single Underworld God and quasi-Supreme Ruler had their eyes set on it, thinking that since the Spirit Pearls fell onto our continent, they belonged to us, or even to themselves. And those that fell onto the opposing continent were left behind by our Supreme Ruler's demise, also belonging to us.

  The significance of the Spirit Pearls was too great, no one was willing to back down an inch, which led to the situation where the two continents are at war with each other."

  Indeed, the Ice Spirit Pearl in Yuan Ye's body was found on the Blazing Flame Continent. Yuan Ye immediately asked, "Has that guy been killed for so long? Has there been any result with the Four Great Spirit Pearls?"

  "We found a spiritual pearl for each other, the water spiritual pearl of the Flame Continent and the flame spiritual pearl of the Ice Abyss Continent. However, finding spiritual pearls requires luck, while competing for them requires strength. Just like our continent's water spiritual pearl, we didn't even have time to negotiate with the people from the Ice Abyss Continent before it was fiercely contested within our own continent, resulting in countless deaths of gods and quasi-gods. In the end, the strongest quasi-god on my continent died after being severely injured, hiding the water spiritual pearl around a divine artifact before passing away. The location where he hid it requires six maps to find, but even now, no one knows who has these maps. Even if you gather all six maps and enter the area where the divine artifact is located, it's said that if your luck is bad, you'll definitely die. It's too difficult.

  Coincidentally, after the Ice Abyss Continent found the flame spiritual pearl, a large-scale battle also broke out, resulting in their flame spiritual pearl being hidden away by one of the quasi-gods before they died. As for the ice spiritual pearl and fire spiritual pearl among the four major spiritual pearls, they have yet to be found."

  "Hmm," Yuan Ye secretly wiped the sweat from his brow. A single Spirit Pearl could provoke a massacre among the entire continent's powerful gods and quasi-deities, let alone if someone found out he not only had one of the six map pieces but also the Ice Spirit Pearl.

  "Seniors, those people are so foolish, they found it and still boast about it all over the world? If it were me, I would definitely hide it tightly, not telling anyone." Yuan Ye said with some confusion, in fact, he was doing just that.

  Kou Yi shook his head, "Little friend, no one is a fool, they will all hide. However, the Four Great Spirit Pearls are formed by heaven and earth, every 9,900 years, the Four Great Spirit Pearls, as well as other spirit pearls on several Yuan Zun's bodies, and the beastly artifacts of the seventeen beast tribes, these can become Dao Zun's treasures. As long as someone sheds blood to claim ownership, a heavenly phenomenon will appear, and everyone in the world will know about it, you simply cannot hide."

  "Ah, I see," Yuan Ye was shocked and quickly asked: "How long is it until the next heavenly phenomenon?"

  "It's been less than 600 years! The last time the two continents fought over the Spirit Pearl was also because of the heavenly phenomenon that exposed its location. Now, both our continents are holding back, waiting for 600 years later when the heavenly phenomenon will point out the locations of the four Spirit Pearls."

  Yuan Hong's heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley. Six hundred years later, this one person still hasn't torn him apart.

  "Good grief, life is precious indeed. I already have a map, and so does Xiao Qiang. If I don't get the Water Spirit Pearl within 600 years, no big deal, I'll just hand it over voluntarily when the time comes, let them fight for it."

  Yuan Yao had already thought of an escape route at the first opportunity.

  "Little friend, your skills are extraordinary. I intend to take you as my closed-door disciple and cultivate you into a new Flame Warrior. What do you think?" Kou Yi said very seriously after a pause.

  A legendary figure in the Flame Warrior, proud of Hunluo State, Lord Kou Yi voluntarily wants to take you as his closed-door disciple. This is probably something that everyone dreams about, but Yuan Ye smiled lightly and said, "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but I've heard that our two continents are at war, and the leaders are all Flame Warriors. The Flame Warriors and Ice Warriors are the main forces of the two continents' war. I dare not hide from you, senior, that I came here with a heart full of guilt. If I hadn't heard that this border area has the most deaths, I wouldn't have come here either. So if you want me to become a Flame Warrior and fight against the Ice Continent, I really don't dare to obey your orders. Please forgive my rudeness."

  "Atonement?" Kou Yi was taken aback, and immediately didn't say anything more. With his status, it's already not easy to condescend to take you as a disciple once, let alone saying it a second time.
