Chapter 544: The Mysterious Region!
Chapter 544: The Mysterious Region!
In the blink of an eye, the hundred-year plan of the Earth’s Celestial Race had come to an end. By this time, humans on Earth had almost entirely transformed into members of the Celestial Race, with only a few centenarians remaining due to various reasons who hadn’t undergone the transformation. However, this did not affect the overall situation.
Although the outcome was slightly short of the initial goal, it was expected that in a few more years, once those elderly who hadn’t transformed passed away, Earth would be fully populated by the Celestial Race. Thus, the pilot program for the Earth’s Celestial Race could be considered a success.
Despite having achieved the plan, Ye Tian still hadn’t lifted the blockade. He needed to return to the Supreme Hall of Humanity and wait for the second phase of the human plan.
“Dominator Dark, let’s return,” Ye Tian called out.
Dominator Dark appeared before Ye Tian and nodded, “Your Highness, let us depart then!”
Together, Dominator Dark and Ye Tian set off for the Supreme Hall of Humanity. As for the ten Universe Gods who remained stationed there, the ten Great Gods and True Monarch Jin Chen continued to stay on Earth.
Soon after, Ye Tian returned to the Supreme Hall of Humanity and met with Kunwu Supreme.
“Greetings to Kunwu Supreme!” Ye Tian said respectfully.
Kunwu Supreme, upon seeing Ye Tian, nodded in satisfaction, “Well done. In a few days, you will undergo the assessment for the Mysterious Region. Once you pass, you will become a Prince of the Mysterious Region.”
“I understand,” Ye Tian responded.Then, Ye Tian inquired about the progress of the Celestial Race project.
Kunwu Supreme explained, “The pilot projects have mostly been successful, with many of our people transforming into members of the Celestial Race. However, compared to the numbers of our race, these are still too few. The second phase of the plan involves implementing these transformations based on influence. For instance, everyone in the Supreme Hall of Humanity will transform into members of the Celestial Race, as well as the major powers within the Sacred Realm of Humanity. Furthermore, humans within worlds covertly controlled by these major powers will also undergo the transformation. Starting from the top-tier powers of our race and gradually moving to the weaker ones, we aim to transform a significant portion of our race’s territories into the Celestial Race, eventually encompassing all of humanity.”
Ye Tian quickly said, “Kunwu Supreme, wouldn’t this approach easily expose us?”
“It’s inevitable that we’ll be exposed, given the countless humans across the thirty-six domains of our race undergoing transformation. However, we’ve taken measures, such as sealing off our territories to prevent other races, even our vassal races, from entering. Moreover, we’re utilizing several of our most powerful treasures to monitor the thirty-six domains of our race. This should minimize the risk of exposure. During this period, humans are also forbidden from leaving our race’s territories, including you,” explained Kunwu Supreme.
Ye Tian nodded, finding the plan reasonable.
Afterward, Ye Tian left the Kunwu Palace and returned to Earth. He then instructed Dominator Dark to lift the blockade and advised the humans on Earth to avoid revealing anything about the Celestial Race. Additionally, those below the level of True Gods were not allowed to leave Earth, to prevent the large number of Gods on Earth from causing a stir in the outside world, which could lead to the discovery of the Celestial Race.
According to Kunwu Supreme’s plan, other powers in the Milky Way Galaxy would have to wait a long time before they could transform into the Celestial Race, hence the need for secrecy.
Having settled Earth’s affairs, Ye Tian left and did not plan to return soon. He wasn’t too worried about Earth’s safety, as it was now home to a vast number of Gods and even several True Gods. Although no Great Gods had emerged due to limited time, Ye Tian had left behind ten Great Gods and a Planetary System-level being to ensure Earth’s strength was more than enough to dominate the major powers of the Milky Way Galaxy.
Therefore, Ye Tian had no concerns about Earth’s safety.
Moreover, with the Supreme Hall of Humanity’s powerful treasures monitoring the thirty-six domains, and Earth being one of the pilot projects, any significant incursion by a powerful foreign race would be immediately detected, posing no danger.
Thus, Ye Tian departed from Earth with peace of mind.
Back at the Supreme Hall of Humanity.
Upon returning, Ye Tian first went to his cultivation tower by the Bi Bo Lake, and then told his housekeeper Ziya, “Ziya, I’m about to enter the Mysterious Region.”
“Wow, Master is going to the Mysterious Region! I’ll pack our things right away!” Ziya exclaimed excitedly.
There wasn’t much of value in Ye Tian’s cultivation tower, mostly just daily necessities and some plants he had been cultivating. He wasn’t concerned about them, but Ziya was very attentive and packed everything.
Moving from the Yellow Region to the Mysterious Region required an assessment. Even with the recognition from the Supremes, one still had to undergo the assessment as per the rules. The assessment took place at the Mystery Gate, a massive ancient stone gate also known as the Gate to the Mysterious Region. Only by passing through this gate could one enter the Mysterious Region.
From what Ye Tian knew, a God-level being needed to possess the combat power of a second-tier ordinary Child of the Universe to pass through the Mystery Gate. However, in reality, many ordinary princes’ combat power would drop significantly after ascending to Godhood. Reaching back to the level of an ordinary prince would take a considerable amount of time.
After all, it was improbable for a Prince of the Ordinary level in the second tier to maintain the same ranking in the God level after ascending to Godhood.
Therefore, for many ordinary princes, maintaining their status at the Emperor level after long years of cultivation in the God level was already commendable, with many even dropping a tier.
Normally, many Princes from the Yellow Region, after becoming Gods, would choose to cultivate in the Yellow Region for a considerable time before attempting the Mystery Gate.
Ye Tian, however, did not need to do this, as his strength had already reached levels unattainable by many.
With a step, Ye Tian entered the Mystery Gate and quickly arrived in a void.
There, Ye Tian encountered a clone of a Prince with the strength of a second-tier Ordinary Child of the Universe.
Ye Tian effortlessly eliminated the clone with a single slash, passing through the Mystery Gate.
In the Mysterious Region.
Ye Tian set foot on the land of this area, and the moment he passed through the Mystery Gate, Ziya’s permissions were upgraded, allowing her to immediately traverse and enter the Mysterious Region.
The Mysterious Region, much like the Yellow Region, had no fundamental difference; it was simply another cultivation area.
“Ziya, let’s go find a cultivation tower!” Ye Tian said.
“Yes, Your Highness!” Ziya promptly replied.
As for Dominator Dark and the others, Ye Tian hadn’t informed them, but they were undoubtedly already aware.
After finding a new residence, it would suffice to inform them.
After all, Ye Tian rarely saw Dominator Dark and the others, given the vast difference in their levels.
In the Mysterious Region, Mystery Emperor Mountain.
This was the area with the densest yuan qi in the Mysterious Region, housing thirteen cultivation towers, eight of which already had occupants.
Soon, Ye Tian arrived at Mystery Emperor Mountain.
“Master, the cultivation tower at the peak of Mystery Emperor Mountain is unoccupied. Master should claim it,” Ziya suggested.
“Alright!” Ye Tian agreed.
With a swift movement, Ye Tian flew towards the peak of Mystery Emperor Mountain, and this scene came to the attention of the guards of various Princes.
Immediately, the Princes of Mystery Emperor Mountain were informed, and they all came out.
Initially, these Princes thought Ye Tian was just some reckless newcomer attempting to claim the cultivation tower at the peak of Mystery Emperor Mountain. They wanted to teach this newcomer a lesson.
However, when they arrived at the peak and saw Ye Tian, one of the Princes’s expression subtly changed.
This Prince, known as Prince Jun Jian, was one of the remaining Eternal Princes in the Mysterious Region. The other Eternal Princes had perished in the last ruin world.
The other Princes, unfamiliar with Ye Tian, were about to reprimand him, but Prince Jun Jian stopped them.
“Greetings to the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws!” Prince Jun Jian said courteously.
“Do you know me?” Ye Tian asked, looking at Prince Jun Jian.
“I’ve heard of the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws’s reputation. It’s an honor to meet you this time,” Prince Jun Jian said respectfully.
At this, the other Princes were taken aback.
Prince Jun Jian, now their leader in the Mysterious Region, was being so polite to an unknown new Prince.
“Celestial Race, I see,” Ye Tian realized upon noticing the Celestial Race’s aura on Prince Jun Jian.
Clearly, Prince Jun Jian was among the first batch of pilot participants, thus somewhat knowledgeable about the Celestial Race project. Perhaps there was a significant figure backing Prince Jun Jian. Moreover, with Ye Tian’s remarkable performance in the ruin world and his fame resonating throughout the universe, his information was certainly accessible.
Unless one diligently sought out the information, they wouldn’t be aware of an Emperor-level Prince overpowering the myriad races in the ruin world.
“I’ll go and test this cultivation tower’s assessment. I won’t keep you any longer,” Ye Tian said, turning to enter the tower for the assessment.
With Ye Tian gone, one of the Princes couldn’t help but ask, “Prince Jun Jian, why were you so respectful towards this new Prince? Could he be the progeny of a high-ranking member of our Human Race?”
Prince Jun Jian smiled, “You’re too uninformed. Our Human Race’s Mysterious, Earth, and Heavenly Regions suffered significant losses in the ruin world, with little to gain. However, the Emperor Yellow Region saw great successes, and the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws of the Emperor Region possessed the strength of an Invincible Eternal Prince, slaying numerous Eternal Princes in the ruin world, even overpowering two Invincible Eternal Princes from the Immortal and Demon Races, and passing through the Ten Tribulations Zone, breaking the Human Race’s record. He’s known as the universe’s number one Emperor-level Prince, unmatched by anyone. His true strength is unknown, and despite being a new Prince in the Mysterious Region, he far surpasses us.”
“What?!!!” The other Princes were utterly astonished.
Ye Tian’s feats were seemingly too extraordinary, almost mythic. At this moment, they were filled with awe for Ye Tian!
