In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

During this time, Ye Chen had been absorbing Chaos Qi, hoping to fully refine it.

However, Chaos Qi was extremely difficult to refine. In a month's time, Ye Chen had only refined a dozen strands. Furthermore, Ye Chen's cultivation was limited, and at most, he could refine a dozen strands. If he continued to refine, even if he drew Chaos Qi into his body, he still couldn't merge with it.

"This mass of Chaos Qi is too vast. Even missing a dozen strands is like a drop in the ocean—it simply doesn't show."

Ye Chen looked at the Chaos Qi in front of him and felt a headache coming on, for there was too much Chaos Qi, and he simply couldn't finish refining it.

"If I don't break through my realm, refining a dozen strands of Chaos Qi is already the limit! However, if I can advance into Grand Transcendence, that would be a different story; I could refine all the Chaos Qi!"

"But I've been advancing too quickly lately, and even with the aid of Chaos Qi, I can't transcend in a short time!"

"It seems I need to settle myself down in order to achieve another transformation."

Finally, Ye Chen rose up, collected the Chaos Qi, and left the secret chamber.

"The three-month deadline is almost up. I wonder if Ye Chen has exited seclusion yet!"

At the cosmic center, many beings gathered, all discussing this matter.

The duel between Ye Chen and Di Lingxian was a spectacle that caught everyone's attention—nobody was unaware of it.

Especially since Di Lingxian had requested from the Holiness to let them enter the Void Battle Field, this shocked everyone.

The Void Battle Field is an unknown land, filled with endless dangers, only accessible by Grand Transcendence.

A duel between two Supremes there—weren't they seeking death?

However, Di Lingxian, having refined the Holy Embryo and advanced to Half-Step Transcendence, was indeed qualified.

But Ye Chen was not. At most, he was at the Supreme Realm, how could he access the Void Battle Field?

If Ye Chen truly entered the Void Battle Field, he might be swept to death by chaotic space-time currents before Di Lingxian even makes a move.

"Tomorrow is the day of the duel. Everyone will see who is stronger or weaker!"

Three months flew by, and tomorrow was the day of the duel. Many were eager to see the spectacle and witness the outcome of the battle.

Di Lingxian was one of the Three Great Supremes, stationed at the cosmic center, and everyone held deep reverence for him.

Though Ye Chen was new to the cosmic center, his feats were astounding. Whether it was causing a group of mighties to bleed, or at the Pool of Mother Qi of All Things, he was exceptionally dazzling.

Therefore, the battle between Ye Chen and Di Lingxian was incredibly captivating, drawing the attention of even the Grand Transcendences.

Inside the Holy Hall.

The Holiness and Yu Jizi were absent, leaving Ye Chen as the de facto host, sitting on the side eating divine fruit and drinking Immortal Brew.

The three-month seclusion and cultivation had been immensely rewarding for Ye Chen, but the time was too monotonous. How could it compare to the comfort of eating and drinking?

However, not long after Ye Chen came out of seclusion, someone came looking for him.

"Ye Chen, I've waited for you for three months, and you've finally come out of seclusion."

This was an extraordinarily beautiful woman, exuding a great majesty—it was none other than Supreme Qian Yue.

Female cultivators were always rare, especially one like Qianyue, who was both beautiful and highly cultivated. There were few like her in the entire cosmic center.

"Qianyue, what brings you here?"

Supreme Qian Yue had already joined the Heavenly Court, so naturally, Ye Chen called her by her name. Otherwise, if he called her "sister," where would his Heavenly Emperor's dignity be?

"You passed me the Heavenly Emperor Fist, but I lack the aptitude to comprehend it and can't take the final step."

"I heard you at the Pool of Mother Qi of All Things..."

Supreme Qian Yue came with a purpose, but before she could finish speaking, Ye Chen interrupted her.

"You want Chaos Qi?" Ye Chen asked.

"Yes." Supreme Qian Yue didn't hide it, as there was no need to conceal this matter. How could anyone not want Chaos Qi, especially a Supreme like her who had exhausted all her potential and couldn't advance to Grand Transcendence?

"Alright, I'll give you a strand." Ye Chen nodded.

"You." Supreme Qian Yue was stunned, not expecting Ye Chen to be so agreeable.

After Ye Chen obtained Chaos Qi, many sought it, even offering treasures for exchange, but Ye Chen refused them all.

Supreme Qian Yue came to ask Ye Chen for Chaos Qi, half with the intention to try her luck.

She hadn't expected Ye Chen to be so generous and agree directly.

"You are a key minister under my command. It's natural for me to cultivate you," Ye Chen said. "Chaos Qi is of infinite significance; it can unlock ultimate potential and seize the creations of heaven and earth. You must thoroughly comprehend it."

With that, Ye Chen split a wisp of Chaos Qi and entwined it around Supreme Qian Yue's hand.

"Did you really give it to me?"

Looking at the Chaos Qi in her hand, Supreme Qian Yue wore an expression of disbelief.

Too straightforward, too direct, too generous!

This wasn't like Ye Chen's style!

Having cultivated to the Supreme Level, Qianyue had exhausted all her potential and couldn't achieve Grand Transcendence. But with this strand of Chaos Qi, she could be reborn, possessing infinite possibilities!

"The most precious thing about Chaos Qi is that it can ignite an invincible aura and grasp the Chaos True Intent within," Ye Chen said. "You've learned my Heavenly Emperor Fist, and even without Transcendence, you've already gained deep insights. Now, I've given you a strand of Chaos Qi. If you still can't transcend, don't bother seeing me again."

Supreme Qian Yue was one of the Three Great Supremes, possessing boundless and endless power, absolutely the top-level Supreme.

Though she had exhausted her potential, having learned the Heavenly Emperor Fist and receiving Chaos Qi, she could compensate for everything.

"Thank you." Supreme Qian Yue expressed her gratitude.

The assistance Ye Chen provided was immense, not only imparting the Heavenly Emperor Fist fully but also giving her a strand of Chaos Qi... If she couldn't transcend even with this, Supreme Qian Yue would be too ashamed to live.

"In the same family, you don't speak of two different ways. You're a key minister of the Heavenly Court, so naturally, I will do my utmost to help you!" Ye Chen sought to make Supreme Qian Yue have a sense of belonging.

"Ye Chen, do you like me and want to pursue me?" Supreme Qian Yue finally said, having been fiddling with her clothes for quite some time before she spoke the words.

"..."

This wasn't the first time they talked about such a topic, but Ye Chen truly couldn't understand where Supreme Qian Yue got the confidence to think he liked her?

"Ye Chen, I understand your thoughts, but I am focused on cultivation and don't want to be bound by romances..." Supreme Qian Yue said, her face turning red; it was so embarrassing!

"Big sister, you've really overthought. I have no interest in you!" Ye Chen was truly speechless. What kind of people are these?

"Hmph, don't deny it. I won't laugh at you," Supreme Qian Yue said. "Your eyes were glued to me, yet you dare deny not liking me... Fine. Since you don't like me, why did you teach me the Heavenly Emperor Fist, and why give me Chaos Qi?"

"..."

Ye Chen was dumbfounded hearing this; is it so hard to be a good person?

"Ye Chen, focus on cultivating well, we..." Supreme Qian Yue showed a look of difficulty, as if contemplating how to reject Ye Chen.

"Get lost!" Ye Chen's expression turned cold. "I'm seriously telling you, I don't like you at all!"
