Four months?

Ye Chen was half skeptical about what God King Youbo had said.

However, if it was indeed a matter of four months, he could wait a bit longer.

The great cleansing calamity gave a total of one year to find the "Eye of Creation" and the "Eye of the Divine Sea."

In rushing through the previous levels and the one month he spent cultivating in the Void Celestial Gourd (where more than eight years had passed due to the discrepancy in the flow of time, making it only a month outside), plus the twenty-four days spent challenging the Creation Chess Board, Ye Chen had used only about three months to arrive at this twenty-first level.

There were still nine months left for the treasure hunt.

If waiting here for another four months would give him the chance to obtain ten Eyes of Creation, Ye Chen was certainly willing to wait.

After all, even though he possessed "Emperor Yan's Triple Flash Triple Kill," he could kill God King Youbo if needed.

But firstly, he had no grudge against God King Youbo and therefore would not attack, and secondly, even if he killed God King Youbo, he was not certain he could break into the Youbao Hall and take out the Eyes of Creation. Aware of the strength of Heaven-reaching Divine Artifacts, Ye Chen knew their power well, owning a Heaven-reaching divine vessel himself.

Furthermore, with many more levels ahead, "Emperor Yan's Triple Flash Triple Kill" had only three chances to kill, and unless facing a deadly foe, Ye Chen certainly wouldn't use it lightly.

"Then I'll wait here for four months,"

In the end, Ye Chen made his decision.

"These four months will give me a good opportunity to cultivate further and enhance my strength, ensuring a greater chance of success in navigating the deeper levels of the Undersea Divine Palace!"

After emerging from the Creation Chess Board, Ye Chen had gone directly to the fifteenth level and then to this twenty-first level. Although he had cultivated in his dreams within the Creation Chess Board, he had gained much and hadn't had the chance to properly meditate and comprehend his gains.

Now that God King Youbo had requested a four-month wait, it gave Ye Chen a chance to cultivate.

"Alright, since Lord Youbo has set the rules for treasure hunting on this level, I will comply and wait another four months," Ye Chen said to God King Youbo with a light chuckle in the end.

At the same time, Ye Chen smiled at God King Youbo and asked, "However, Lord Youbo, during this time, may I look around the twenty-first level as I wish?"

Although God King Youbo claimed to have the Eye of Creation in his possession and had displayed it on the screen, even producing a palace,

Ye Chen obviously wouldn't just take his word for it without seeing the Eye of Creation for himself.

He also wanted to take this time to search around.

If the twenty-first level truly lacked other life forms bent on slaughter, as God King Youbo claimed, then searching wouldn't take too long.

Hearing Ye Chen's words, God King Youbo seemed to see through his intentions.

He chuckled, saying, "You young lad, want to search for the Eyes of Creation yourself, huh? Well, since you've agreed to wait here for four months, I won't stop you from going wherever you want. Of course, after four months, you must return punctually to this place. If someone else arrives and enters the Youbao Hall to take the Eye of Creation and you're too late to return, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."

"I won't, I won't. I'll just wander around a bit and then come back here," Ye Chen assured God King Youbo with a smile.

God King Youbo nodded noncommittally: "Alright, I've said what needed to be said. Little young man, plan your actions on this twenty-first level as you please; I won't interfere."

After speaking, the frenzied God King Youbo simply gathered the Youbao Hall from the ground and left directly, vanishing from sight.

Seeing God King Youbo disappear, Ye Chen stood still for a while, as if contemplating something, and then, with a slight smile, he too flew into the void.

Three days later.

Ye Chen returned to that piece of land.

"It seems, indeed as God King Youbo said, the Eye of Creation is in his hands!" a resigned Ye Chen murmured as he descended.

Over these three days, Ye Chen had virtually turned the twenty-first level upside down.

He had even taken out the Destruction Eye Skills and the helpful divine artifact for treasure hunting, the Ice Treasure Divine Ring.

And yet, there was utterly no trace of the Eye of Creation in this world.

It wasn't just the Eye of Creation; there were no other demons or even humans in this world, just a desolate expanse of yellow and brown earth.

In the end, the only lead to the Eye of Creation pointed back to God King Youbo.

"So it is, then I can only wait for four months. I wonder if the others will be able to get through the previous challenges and reach this twenty-first level in that time," Ye Chen mused to himself.

Ye Chen remembered that when he left the fourteenth floor, the remaining people were still trapped within it, and he didn't know whether they could pass the "Slaughter Chess Game" trial in these four months.

"The Slaughter Chess Game, the Rock Giant God King predecessor once said that the difficulty would diminish over time. Perhaps they will eventually break free from the Slaughter Chess Game."

"But aside from the Slaughter Chess Game, there are numerous other levels filled with countless dangers. I'm afraid that after these four months, there won't be many who could reach this twenty-first floor."

Thinking of this, Ye Chen thought of Jiang Yao.

"The Rock Giant God King predecessor had sensed Jiang Yao's movements, saying she was in the levels far below, most likely after the thirtieth level. How did she get to such deep levels? Below the thirtieth level, once I resolve the matters on this twenty-first floor, I must quickly head down to check!"

While Ye Chen was searching for the "Eye of Creation" on the twenty-first floor, he also found the passage leading to the twenty-second floor. However, the passage was sealed at the moment, and he was unable to go down.

There was also a passage leading to the higher levels, but Ye Chen lacked the energy to explore them. After all, there was no "Eye of Creation" on the higher levels; going there would be a waste of time and could be dangerous. Moreover, missing the four-month deadline would be an even greater loss.

After some contemplation, Ye Chen retreated into the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat on the twenty-first floor and began to cultivate.

Four months passed in the blink of an eye.

Many things happened during these four months that Ye Chen knew nothing about.

Ye Chen didn't know that within the Undersea Divine Palace's fourteenth floor, three Ninth Tribulation true gods had broken through and ventured into further levels.

Among them, an ancient emperor of the Yan Clan even encountered an earth-shattering opportunity on the eighteenth level and managed to break through to the God King Realm in spite of already being a Ninth Tribulation true god!

This caused the Flying Spirit Clan's elder leader and the Vermilion Bird Clan's elder leader, who had battled their way to the eighteenth floor with him, to be filled with extreme envy and jealousy!

For the warriors of the Minor Spirit Realm and the Thirty-three Continents, breaking through to the God King Realm meant escaping the great cleansing catastrophe.

Once the ancient emperor of the Yan Clan made it to the God King Realm, he was directly transported out of the Northern Mysterious Divine Sea, not even requiring the rescue chance from the "Eye of Creation" and "Eye of the Divine Sea."

Ye Chen also didn't know that, just a month into these four months, Jiang Yao in the Undersea Divine Palace's thirty-third level, within the mysterious realm, had completed the "Nirvana Nine Transformations" cultivation and successfully emerged from the sealed cave dwelling.

In the end, she was completely surrounded by Mrs. He and the nine goddesses, who were all overwhelmingly excited, and began to instruct her for a second time!

Nor did Ye Chen know that Jiang Yao had even learned from Mrs. He and the nine goddesses that he had obtained eight Eyes of Creation and had mastered the "Emperor Yan's Triple Flash Triple Kill."

During these four months, countless things happened outside, while Ye Chen was completely immersed in his cultivation.

These four months, without the chance for accelerated time flow in cultivation, were incredibly brief.

Yet, these four months brought great gains to Ye Chen!

Especially in the realm of qi cultivation, ever since he incarnated as a feathered bird in that dream realm and cultivated all the way to an upper-tier God King Realm, Ye Chen had a clear understanding of how to break through the boundaries.

Ye Chen even learned the method to break through from the middle to the late stage of the Heavenly Saint Realm.

To break through from the middle to the late stage of the Heavenly Saint Realm, one must allow the qi within the body and the power of the spatial law to continuously grow strong enough to begin nurturing the soul, allowing the soul to integrate with the spatial law to the extent that the soul can control the spatial law outside of the body!

Now, Ye Chen is crystal clear on how to integrate his soul with the spatial law, controlling it with his soul. What he lacked was building his inner qi and the power of the spatial law to the point of sensing and charging at the bottleneck of the late Heavenly Saint stage.

During these four months of arduous cultivation, Ye Chen felt that as the spatial vortex within him continued to expand, his qi grew more vast, bringing him ever closer to the late Heavenly Saint stage.

The breakthrough to the late Heavenly Saint stage was no longer distant for Ye Chen!

After four months of cultivation, Ye Chen flew out from the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat. Then, he saw three people appear before him.

Among these three people, the first was all too familiar to Ye Chen, none other than "God King Youbo."

At that moment, seeing Ye Chen emerge from the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat, God King Youbo also grinned at him, saying, "Little lad, no wonder you were the first to reach this twenty-first level, you have quite a treasure."

"A Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat, huh? It seems your fortunes are indeed profound."

Hearing God King Youbo's words, Ye Chen gave a smile and put away the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat.

When Ye Chen looked at the other two people, however, his eyes narrowed.

He certainly recognized these two, as they were the elderly clan leaders of the Flying Spirit Clan and the Vermilion Bird Clan.

Ye Chen hadn't expected that, after four months, these two would have successfully made it here!

Right now, as the Flying Spirit Clan's elder leader and the Vermilion Bird Clan's elder leader looked at Ye Chen emerging from the Heaven-reaching Divine Artifact flying boat, their eyes seemed to shoot flames.
