The holy land of the Heavenly Eye Clan was situated in the middle of the seven crystal clear lakes where thick earth and heaven energy hovered. The giant statues were also temples that they used to worship. Those temples were tall and vast. Many elders of the Heavenly Eye Clan stayed there to cultivate.
The Chief of the Heavenly Eye Clan stayed in the biggest temple where he solved all the matters of the Heavenly Eye Clan.
Yvelines’s teacher used to be the Great Elder of the clan. He was gone in the battle with the experts from the adjacent territory. Yvelines, Masha, and Adams weren’t eligible to stay in the holy land and they weren’t the Elders of the clan.
Returning from the Sea Domain of Nihility, Yvelines had helped establish the alliance with the Mysterious Sky Clan.
With this great merit, Yvelines, Adams, and Mash had become the Elders of the Heavenly Eye Clan. They finally got their lots in those temples.
Yvelines was the senior and he had contributed greatly to the clan. After the Elders of the Heavenly Eye Clan had discussed, they had even built him his own temple.
Many fellows of the Heavenly Eye Clan considered Yvelines an important officer of the clan. The young warriors would visit and worship his statue regularly.
Yvelines’s apprentices also considered him their pride. Thus, when Shi Yan teased him, they couldn’t help but retort.
Shi Yan just smiled and asked Yvelines to lead the way. He strolled past the temples.
The area in front of us is the center of the holy land. Without permission from the Chief, we can’t get in there. Please understand,
Yvelines halted and spoke embarrassedly.
Adams and Masha are inside the temple. I’m going there to call them to meet you personally.
Shi Yan wasn’t interested in the holy land of the Heavenly Eye Clan at all. He went to the clan just to find a place to rest. He nodded when Yvelines told him to wait.
Yvelines told his disciples to wait outside. He walked alone to the temple. One hour later, he returned with Masha and Adams.
When Adams and Masha saw Shi Yan, they were so excited that they screamed from a distance.
On behalf of the fellows of the entire Heavenly Eye Clan, thank you for visiting us!
Little Ya, Little Ye, and the other young fellows of the Heavenly Eye Clan were so surprised when they saw Adams treat Shi Yan humbly. Adams was always a proud expert.
Thank him on behalf of the Heavenly Eye Clan’s fellows?
They were bewildered as they didn’t know why the Heavenly Eye Clan had to be grateful to Shi Yan. They thought that Adams talked about big things, so they didn’t dig further.
There were so many members of the Heavenly Eye Clan gathering around the statues. They were talking boisterously. However, hearing the commotion over there, they couldn’t help but notice the group of warriors.
At first glance, they saw Yvelines, Adams and Masha. They were all surprised and excited, hurrying to approach him.
Elder Yvelines! You are Elder Yvelines! Please bless me!
Elder Adams, Elder Masha! Holy moly! You came out of the temple. I’m so glad I met you here. Please show me the way to cultivate my power Upanishad!
Elder Yvelines!
. . .
The boisterous, excited noises arose. The young fellows’ eyes brightened and they tried to get through the crowd to meet their idols.
Yvelines hurriedly spoke when he saw the situation turn wrong.
We’ll talk somewhere else!
He rose his hand to grab. Bands of starlight turned into a fabric sheet and covered his disciples. Together with Masha and Adams, they disappeared.
Shi Yan flickered his mind and his figure faded away with Zi Yao.
When they reappeared, they were in a small ravine outside the temple area in the holy land. It was a quiet place with strong barriers outside where a lot of towers and buildings with elegant and interesting architecture were built.
Yvelines’s teacher used to live here to cultivate. Sometimes, when Yvelines and the other two needed to discuss privately, they came here. It wasn’t far from the holy land, though.
Why did you come to our Heavenly Eye Clan this time?
As Forefather Dragon Lizard had given Masha an Immortal Pellet, she had entered the Immortal Realm. Similarly, she was now one of the Heavenly Eye Clan’s elders. More than anyone else, she knew her today’s attainment was all because of Shi Yan. Thus, she sounded more respectful to Shi Yan than Adams.
I just passed by and I saw Yvelines. That’s why I came to visit you guys,
Shi Yan smiled.
Hm, the Chief is busy treating the experts of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe. He’s not free. After he’s done, we will treat you well!
Yvelines pressed his voice.
Fiery Phoenix Tribe?
Zi Yao wore a strange face, her eyes interested as if she knew this race.
The Fiery Phoenix Tribe is very famous in the Sea Domain of Nihility. The rumors say that it’s similar to the Dragon Lizard Clan. They are the later generations of an Absolute Beginning creature. Anyway, the Fiery Phoenix Tribe is fiercer. The Fiery Phoenix Tribe has one Territory Ancestor. They are dependent on the Mysterious Sky Clan too but they are more powerful than our Heavenly Eye Clan.
Yvelines explained to Shi Yan,
The Fiery Phoenix Tribe’s territory is pretty close to our Heavenly Eye Clan. After we followed the Mysterious Sky Clan, they told us to create a good relationship with the Fiery Phoenix Tribe. Our Heavenly Eye Clan and the other smaller races around here consider the Fiery Phoenix Tribe our master. We will do what they ask us to do.
Shi Yan was interested in neither the competition between the small clans nor the treat of the Heavenly Eye Clan’s chief. He shook his head and waved his hands.
We don’t want to bother your chief. We are just passing by for a while. I’m glad to see you guys again. We’ve traveled for a long time. We’re really tired. If you don’t mind, we want to stay there to cultivate for a while.
Masha was smart enough to understand. She hurriedly nodded,
Right, you should rest first. After you recover, we will come to see you.
Then, she grabbed her two seniors and took their juniors to leave.
Why are you so hurried?
After leaving the ravine, Yvelines was a little discontent, rolling his eyes at his sister.
We made an agreement with him that year. I was afraid that he would forget it, so I was about to remind him. Why did you act hastily?
They want to have some private time. You idiots. You don’t have good vision,
smiled Masha.
Hearing her, Yvelines and Adams understood the situation. Since Shi Yan was still there, they shouldn’t be hurried, though.
Oh hey, the Fiery Phoenix Tribe experts came here again. What’s the matter?
Yvelines wore a dark, complicated face.
The Heavenly Eye Clan and the Fiery Phoenix Tribe were similar; they were both dependent on the Mysterious Sky Clan. However, the Heavenly Eye Clan was a lot weaker than the Fiery Phoenix Tribe. Thus, the Fiery Phoenix Tribe had deemed themselves as the leader of the territories around this area. It was true that the Fiery Phoenix Tribe had helped the Heavenly Eye Clan subdue the surrounding small races.
However, they didn’t do that for nothing.
They had asked for many flaming crystal mines in the Heavenly Eye Clan’s territory. The members of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe cultivated Fire power Upanishad, so they had already dug all the flaming crystal ores in their territory. They had asked most of the territories that were connected to the Fiery Phoenix Tribe for the flaming crystals too.
The Fiery Phoenix Tribe didn’t have an alliance with the Heavenly Eye Clan before. However, since they were both dependent on the Mysterious Sky Clan and the Fiery Phoenix Tribe had helped the Heavenly Eye Clan threaten their enemies, they naturally used their tentacles to reach the Heavenly Eye Clan’s territory and ask the Heavenly Eye Clan to offer them the mines full of ores.
This time, the experts of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe had come with many mine slaves. They were about to exploit their new mines.
They didn’t bring enough mine slaves. They want us to provide them with mine slaves to exploit the flaming crystals,
said Adams with a forced smile.
They’ve asked for too much. We’ve already given them mines and now, they want even the mine slaves. They haven’t helped us much or fought against the others for us. They just yelled at those enemy forces. And they’ve asked too much,
Yvelines snorted.
We’re both dependent on the Mysterious Sky Clan. They didn’t mean harm to us. In this area, the Fiery Phoenix Tribe is the strongest clan. Sigh, we have no choice. They have a Territory Ancestor and their echelon in the Mysterious Sky Clan is also higher than us,
sighed Adams.
Forget it,
Yvelines knew that they didn’t have a choice. They had to be subtly patient.

Inside the ravine, after Yvelines and his people left, Shi Yan smiled faintly,
Well, talking about the Fiery Phoenix Tribe, your face looked strange. Do you know them?
After being in the Sea Domain of Nihility, I got more knowledge. The Fiery Phoenix Tribe? Hmm, I ate their ancestor,
Zi Yao said casually.
Shi Yan understood that Zi Yao was Hui’s clone, a part of Hui’s soul. But now, after she had swallowed Hui’s soul, she had considered herself Hui. She got all the memories from the Absolute Beginning Era.
The ancestor of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe was also an Absolute Beginning creature? Why did you eat it?
Shi Yan was curious.
Zi Yao pondered for a while and then said,
How much do you know about the Absolute Beginning Era? You have two of Desolate’s soul clones, don’t you?
Just the fragments of memories. I can’t combine them. I know bits of things. I don’t actually know that era’s situation in detail,
said Shi Yan begrudgingly.
Looking at him, Zi Yao beamed,
Then I should tell you the details. You should have a good grasp of it.
Shi Yan smiled. He wanted to find a quiet place to talk to Zi Yao about that extinct epoch to erase the mist in his mind.
It was a magical time where creatures had giant bodies. In that era, when the creatures were born, they already reached Ethereal God Realm. We didn’t need to cultivate like the current races from King God Realm to Ethereal God Realm. We started with Ethereal God Realm. We were lucky that the earth and heaven energy at that time was extremely thick. It was easy to cultivate and make fast progress.
There was no territory in that era. The entire world was an infinite sea of stars with billions of planets. There was no space barrier. The sea of stars didn’t have a border. It could elongate forever. No one knew if it had ended. Until our era ended, no one ever found the end of the vast sea of stars.
The earth and heaven could produce divine weapons in that area. Take your Skyfall Star River as an example. It was actually a piece of the sea of stars. It had slowly gained consciousness and soul energy. Chen () found it. He had refined for thousands of years and made it Skyfall Star River. Unfortunately, Chen had fallen in that war. The Skyfall Star River went missing. You’ve found it unexpectedly.
() 辰: 5th earthly branch, or Dragon.
Zi Yao told him the magnificent intimidation of that era.
Why did you fight against each other? What was that war for?
Shi Yan squinted and asked seriously.
To be stronger, of course.
