Chapter 2144: The Shocking Secret

"The unity of essence, energy, and spirit! How... how did he do it?"

"Is this the power of the unity of essence, energy, and spirit? Truly overwhelmingly strong!"

"Throughout history, countless brilliant talents have tried to merge essence, energy, and spirit, but no one ever succeeded. How did he do it?"

...

Exclamations of astonishment arose all around; everyone was stunned by this scene.

Before the Divine Path, one needed to merge the three paths of essence, energy, and spirit to reach the Divine Path.

But after the Divine Path, no martial artist in the Tongtian Realm could unite essence, energy, and spirit into one.

Even the Dao Ancestor could not!

Throughout history, countless great cultivators had trained the three paths of essence, energy, and spirit to their pinnacle and attempted to merge them.

But once they entered the Divine Path, it became a paradox!

No matter how hard they tried, they could not succeed.

Thus, the inability to unite essence, energy, and spirit became a consensus among all Tongtian Realm powerhouses—an iron law!

But today, this iron law was broken by Ye Yuan!

Such a matter was far too shocking.

Long Xiaochun and the others gaped, their eyes filled with disbelief.

"The vast universe, I am the heavens! Chaos, One Qi Sword!"

Ye Yuan's entire state finally peaked, reaching a mysterious and wondrous realm.

In the eyes of Long Xun and the others, Ye Yuan at this moment seemed like the master of this world.

Under such might, the Abyss Demon Beast at the Heavenly Sovereign level trembled, not daring to flee.

With a single sword strike carrying earth-shattering power, the Abyss Demon Beast at the Heavenly Sovereign level turned directly into a puff of ash and vanished.

Picking up the Black Mold Demon Crystal, Ye Yuan exclaimed in admiration, "Truly worthy of a Heavenly Sovereign-level Black Mold Demon Crystal—it remains intact even under my Chaos One Qi Sword. A Heavenly Sovereign-level Black Mold Demon Crystal is indeed extraordinary!"

Now, Ye Yuan's three paths of essence, energy, and spirit had all reached the peak of the Yuan Dan realm.

His state was also unprecedentedly harmonious.

He was only one step away from the next realm.

Having cultivated the "Chaos Tongtian True Scripture" to this point, its unique aspect finally revealed itself.

Others could not unite essence, energy, and spirit, but when his Divine Origin realm reached the peak of the Yuan Dan realm, the three paths naturally merged into one.

And this state subtly resonated with the Yuan Dan in his divine sea, reaching a delicate equilibrium.

It seemed as if something was about to break through the ground.

Ye Yuan understood that he only needed an opportunity to step into the next realm!

"Ye Yuan, how did you do it? I've never heard of anyone being able to merge essence, energy, and spirit! If this matter were known in the Tongtian Realm, it would surely cause a bloody storm!"

Long Xiaochun's face rarely showed a solemn expression.

She knew that the significance of this matter was too great; if it were discovered, Ye Yuan would likely face extreme danger.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "So, this matter cannot be known! You all know what to do, right?"

His gaze swept across everyone's faces. Brother Xun and the others shuddered, immediately understanding something.

Brother Xun knelt with a thud, his face contrite, and said, "Sp... spare me, sir! Little Xun's eyes were blind just now; I saw nothing."

With Brother Xun taking the lead, the others knelt one after another, crying and pleading.

Seeing this, Ye Yuan was speechless and said, "When did I say I wanted your lives?"

Brother Xun was stunned and stammered, "Does... does sir mean you don't want us to commit suicide?"

Ye Yuan scolded with a laugh, "Fool! If I wanted to kill you, it would be as easy as snapping my fingers. Do you think I'd waste so many words?"

Brother Tian, being quick-witted, was overjoyed and immediately made a Heavenly Dao oath, with extremely venomous curses.

The others suddenly understood and followed suit, each making a Heavenly Dao oath.

Brother Xun and the others looked at Ye Yuan, their fear gradually turning into respect.

Anyone else, for their own safety, would have killed them without hesitation.

If such a matter were to spread to the Tongtian Realm, it would inevitably cause a huge upheaval.

The entire Tongtian Realm would instantly descend into chaos.

At that time, even the Dao Ancestor might be alarmed, and Ye Yuan would face endless pursuit.

Everyone would want to pry open Ye Yuan's mouth to make him reveal how to merge essence, energy, and spirit.

But Ye Yuan did not!

Such a lord was worth following!

Long Xiaochun also raised her palm to the sky, ready to make a poisonous oath, but Ye Yuan stopped her.

"You don't need to swear," Ye Yuan said calmly.

Long Xiaochun asked doubtfully, "Why?"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "A person who would unhesitatingly enter the Dragon Eye Cave for a brother—how could I not trust you?"

Long Xiaochun smiled radiantly, patted Ye Yuan on the shoulder, and said, "Good buddy! But... I still have to make the Heavenly Dao oath, and... they all have to die! Ye Yuan, this matter is too significant."

At Long Xiaochun's words, Brother Xun and the others, who had just relaxed, immediately tensed up again.

Although making a poisonous oath was bound by the Heavenly Dao, making a Heavenly Dao oath still carried risks.

If someone risked death to reveal Ye Yuan's secret, the consequences would be unimaginable.

However, Ye Yuan firmly shook his head and said, "I, Ye Yuan, act according to my own principles! Brother Xun and the others have no grievances with me. Killing to silence them—I, Ye Yuan, cannot do such a thing! Say no more!"

Hearing Ye Yuan's words, Brother Xun and the others felt a warmth in their hearts.

Their boss was truly different from ordinary people!

Even someone as simple-minded as Long Xiaochun thought of killing to silence them, which showed how serious this matter was.

Yet Ye Yuan remained unwavering and did not harm them.

"Sir, rest assured. Even if I die, I won't breathe a word!" Brother Xun said resolutely.

"Sir, Little Tian would rather die than reveal this matter!"

"Sir, me too!"

...

Everyone spoke in a flurry, but their expressions were unprecedentedly solemn.

Long Xiaochun was taken aback; she knew these people's temperaments well.

Opportunistic, calculating, cowardly...

In short, Long Xiaochun saw no merits in them.

But now, their faces showed unprecedented seriousness, clearly from the heart.

"But, the premise is that we can get out!" Brother Xun suddenly recalled something, saying bitterly.

In this Dragon Eye Cave, getting out was far too difficult.

If they couldn't get out, even if they knew a shocking secret, they couldn't reveal it.

Even if they wanted to leak it, there was nowhere to leak it to.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will find a spatial rift and take you all out!"

At these words, everyone shuddered.

"Sir, do you really have a way?" Brother Xun asked incredulously.

"S... sir, this is no joking matter!" Long Zhaotian also said excitedly.

Ye Yuan said confidently, "Of course, but... I must first break through to the Heavenly Sovereign realm!"
