This is the name Ye Tianchen took for himself after transforming into a chubby Taoist, symbolizing another identity. It wasn’t a name he came up with casually, but two words that emerged subconsciously.

Tongtian Taoist!

This thought intensified in Ye Tianchen after he acquired five of the ten Ancient Divine Swords. He increasingly sensed the grandeur and unfathomable nature of these two words.

In ancient times, the ten Divine Swords circulated within the Martial Arts World. No one knew their origins or why these ten swords appeared. Each sword held a unique divine power, seemingly surpassing the Magic Laws of this world. Little is known about them, but all beings understand that obtaining just one sword grants an incredible divine power, vastly increasing one’s strength!

Throughout history, few have obtained the ten Ancient Divine Swords, but the pursuit for them never ceased. In ancient times, a man named Tongtian, a Taoist, acquired four Ancient Divine Swords, became immensely powerful, and horrifyingly, refined them into a formation called "Execution of Immortals." What tremendous dominance!

Tongtian Taoist’s powerful "Execution of Immortals" Sword Array became the most formidable formation in the Martial Arts World. No one below the Emperor Realm even ventured into it, and even Ancient Saint Realm powerhouses perished within. Tales of Tongtian Taoist’s terror and of the strength of the "Execution of Immortals" Sword Array spread widely, continuing even now!

Ye Tianchen, subconsciously sensing, despite not using the ten Ancient Divine Swords much, knew they were invaluable treasures. Yet, he felt these swords were perhaps more sinister than his ultimate treasure, the "Holy Heaven Prison." Although the ancient Tongtian Taoist only had four Ancient Divine Swords and rose to such heights, Ye Tianchen already possessed five, possibly becoming the individual who possessed the most swords throughout history. Can he gather all ten? What will happen if he does?

So, subconsciously, Ye Tianchen adopted the title "Tongtian Taoist," which fits his current identity and appearance!

"Tongtian? This..." The first speaker, a humanoid dog-headed monster, was too shocked to speak.

"Your title..." Another humanoid dog-headed monster frowned and said.

"The Qiong Qi Descendant Clan has controlled East State’s city for years, proving their strength. Qiong Mao, being a young power in the clan, is someone you think lacks power to befriend? Can anyone weak be his friend?" Ye Tianchen asked with a smile.

"How... how can we trust you?" The first humanoid dog-headed monster still hesitated.

"I’m named Tongtian, known outside as Tongtian Taoist. You can ask the Qiong Qi Descendant Clan. However, since Qiong Mao was killed, the entire clan is furious, vowing to tear Ye Tianchen to pieces. If you go now, you might lose your lives, becoming targets for their anger. I advise you against it!" Ye Tianchen solemnly cautioned the two humanoid dog-headed monsters.

The two monsters guarding the city gates of East State exchanged glances. Then, one humanoid dog-headed monster said, "Alright, we hope Master Taoist can speak favorably of us!"

"Naturally, naturally, everyone has a tough time, so can I enter now?" Ye Tianchen asked with a smile.

"Of course, of course!" The two humanoid dog-headed monsters hurriedly chuckled.

Ye Tianchen grinned mischievously. These humanoid dog-headed monsters were so easily deceived, letting him in effortlessly. Clearly, these monsters are doomed, as the Qiong Qi Descendant Clan will eventually realize and kill them. Of course, Ye Tianchen can’t be blamed, as these monsters were inherently cruel and relied on power to bully others!

Upon entering the city of East State, Ye Tianchen found himself in a situation he had indeed anticipated. The entire East State was shaken to its core due to the magnitude of the incident he had sparked this time. The offspring of the Yazi Descendants’ clan had been killed, and Qiong Mao of the Qiong Qi Descendants was also dead. This upheaval spread across the entire East State; strong warriors were seen everywhere pursuing him relentlessly, all over the vicinity of East State city, sublimating their flights with Qi Manipulation Flight. They wouldn’t rest until he was dead, and this incident would surely soon spread throughout the Barbaric Forbidden Land!

However, within the city of East State, it remained lively, undisturbed by the calamity he had wrought. This was as Ye Tianchen had foreseen—everyone assumed he had left East State city. No one would conceivably imagine that in the very city controlled by the Qiong Qi Descendants, he would dare to return after escaping. Wouldn’t that be inviting trouble? Who would be so foolish?

Yet, Ye Tianchen understood that the most dangerous place was also the safest place. He was a person filled with courage and wisdom, an adversary not easily defeated!

Once more entering into the city of East State, Ye Tianchen did not linger, knowing that among the Qiong Qi Descendants’ clan members, there were several powerful elders. Although he had confidence in the formidable Bone Transformation Skill, it wouldn’t be easy for these elders to uncover his true identity. Still, for the sake of absolute safety, Ye Tianchen decided not to stay within East State city. Instead, he went to the back of the city, aiming for Medicine King Valley, with a genuine interest in the Eight Treasures Chicken—an exceptional "chicken"—a prize Ye Tianchen truly wanted to seize!

Though he couldn’t truly set foot on the "Medicine King Valley Islet" anymore, the Eight Treasures Chicken remained within the wide expanses of Medicine King Valley, representing a golden opportunity for Ye Tianchen!

As Ye Tianchen passed by Peace Restaurant, he noticed a portrait of himself was hung there, complete with some details about his background. It seemed apparent that this was the deplorable machination of Golden-faced Young Master, a character steeped in deviousness, ruthless and fond of underhanded strategies. Ye Tianchen would show no mercy to such a person. Smiling lightly, he waved his right hand below his own portrait and then proceeded towards the rear of East State city!

Shortly after Ye Tianchen left, several formidable members of the Qiong Qi Descendants descended at the entrance of Peace Restaurant, each exuding an air of intense hostility. The waiter dashed out intending to inquire about the situation but was nearly beaten to death. Golden-faced Young Master emerged from inside immediately, furrowed his brow, and questioned, "Gentlemen, what’s the matter?"

"Humph, what’s the matter? Are you in collusion with Ye Tianchen?" a Qiong Qi Descendants’ member scoffed coldly.

"No... where is this coming from? I fought fiercely with that man, barely restraining the urge to tear him apart!" Golden-faced Young Master quickly retorted. "In order to provide clues, I posted this man’s portrait along with some information at the entrance of our Peace Restaurant!"

"Is that so? Then come and see what you posted?" another Qiong Qi Descendants’ warrior demanded with a frosty tone.

Golden-faced Young Master furrowed his brows, unsure of the situation, then approached the place where he hung the notice, only to be completely shocked. The portrait of Ye Tianchen had transformed into one depicting both of them, and the text beneath had completely changed, conveying: Golden-faced Young Master and Ye Tianchen were good friends, any attempt to apprehend Ye Tianchen made you his enemy, they would collaborate internally and externally to annihilate the Qiong Qi Descendants and seize control of East State city!

"How can this be? What’s happening?" Golden-faced Young Master asked, bewildered.

"You should answer that question yourself. It appears Golden-faced Young Master has quite the audacity!"

"Did you truly believe the Qiong Qi clan wouldn’t dare kill you?"

"You must provide a proper explanation, or else, you will perish without a grave!"

The Qiong Qi Descendants’ warriors encircled Golden-faced Young Master menacingly, conveying a clear intent to strike. Golden-faced Young Master was extremely frightened, knowing the Qiong Qi Descendants were nothing to infuriate. Although the power supporting him wasn’t weak, engaging in a war with the Qiong Qi Descendants was indeed a precarious venture, especially as their clan members were currently furious; if he couldn’t clarify the matter, these few might really kill him!

"Speak up, what’s the real story?" Golden-faced Young Master harshly interrogated his waiter.

"I... I don’t know, Young Master. When I emerged, they were already here. I... I’ve been busy inside the entire time!" The waiter, face distraught and helpless, replied.

"You... imbecile! Who is trying to sabotage me, Golden-faced Young Master? If I discover who, I will completely destroy them!" Golden-faced Young Master exclaimed, grinding his teeth furiously.
