My gorgeous wife-Chapter 1714 - 1685: Li Chen and the Heart of Heaven

Chapter 1714: Chapter 1685: Li Chen and the Heart of Heaven

The flying spirit artifact was engulfed in an eerie silence.

Li Chen didn’t speak, Bai Shi didn’t speak, and Bai Tianyi, she just stared at Li Chen, also not speaking, as if waiting for Li Chen’s response.

"Tian Yi, I..."

Li Chen opened his mouth, about to say something, but then noticed Bai Tianyi’s body tremble all over. Blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, and the misty energy in her hand suddenly dispersed, and she fainted so directly.

"Tian Yi!"

At this moment, Li Chen couldn’t care less. He hurriedly rushed to Bai Tianyi’s side and grabbed her in his arms.

However, when he held Bai Tianyi, he realized her body was terrifyingly hot, even to the point of burning him upon first touch, until his protective gang qi activated.

Such high temperatures, even more frightening than molten iron, would instantly turn a normal person or even an Earth-Level Warrior to ash upon contact with Bai Tianyi.

"What on earth... is going on?" Li Chen’s expression became complicated.

He was also a bit confused about how things suddenly turned out this way.

Inside Li Chen’s body, several supreme treasures seemed to sigh with relief, and even Li Chen seemed to hear the sound of their exhale.

"You all tell me clearly, what is going on? Who exactly is Tian Yi, and why do you insist that I should not approach her?" After placing Bai Tianyi down, Li Chen didn’t know what else to do, so he questioned the supreme treasures.

"She..." The voice of the Two-Yi Yin Yang Mirror was somewhat complicated: "Perhaps, regarding her, it is better that you do not know. Moreover, I advise you not to get close to her. Others don’t matter, but you... are an exception."

"Why can’t I get close to her? What is this all about, explain it clearly to me!" Li Chen shouted in anger.

"Calm down." The Primordial Heavy Water spoke up as well: "In fact, preventing you from approaching her is for your own good, and also for her."

"Who exactly is she?" Li Chen also calmed down. He had always been perplexed about Bai Tianyi’s existence. It is said that in a place like the Heaven Realm, a young girl like her would find it difficult to survive, and most importantly, she loses her memory once a year, which makes survival even tougher.

Initially, Li Chen thought Bai Tianyi relied on her extraordinary strength, but later he discovered that this seemed not the case.

She seemed to dislike fighting and had almost never taken action, keeping her true strength a mystery.

"If we are not mistaken, she should be... the Heart of Heaven." The Primordial Heavy Water spoke with some difficulty.

"Heart of Heaven? What is that?" Li Chen asked suspiciously. Despite his extensive knowledge, he had never heard of this "Blood of Heaven."

"You don’t understand? Right, now in the whole Heaven Realm, there might barely be anyone who knows of the Heart of Heaven’s existence." The Primordial Heavy Water sighed: "Let me put it another way. This little girl should be the heart of the Heaven Realm."

"The heart of the Heaven Realm?!" Li Chen’s eyes widened.

"That’s right, literally, she is the core, the spirit of the entire Heaven Realm. Of course, she needs to fully awaken first; right now, she’s just an ordinary little girl." The Primordial Heavy Water bitterly smiled.

"But." Li Chen was still incredulous: "How is that possible? Isn’t the Heaven Realm composed of floating continents? How could there be such a thing as the Heart or Soul of the Heaven Realm?"

"Do you really think the 108 star continents of the Heaven Realm formed and were discovered by chance?" The Primordial Heavy Water sneered.

"Aren’t they?" Li Chen retorted.

"Haha." The Primordial Heavy Water sneered even more: "If I tell you that a long time ago, the Heaven Realm was actually a complete continent, a Great Realm pieced together by 108 star continents, would you be more shocked?"

"You... this..."

This time, Li Chen really couldn’t find words.

The Heaven Realm’s 108 star continents each were exceptionally vast, and they were separated by great distances of starfields. Li Chen had never imagined that these star continents were once connected as a complete continent.

It’s not that Li Chen couldn’t imagine it, but this information is truly too shocking for his worldview.

A complete Great Realm formed by 108 star continents... just how large would that be?

Li Chen couldn’t even begin to imagine. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"In ancient times, there was an even more fearsome great war than the ancient war. The entire continent of the Heaven Realm was shattered, but because of the Heart of Heaven, these continental fragments still maintained connections. Smaller fragments gradually gathered into larger ones, eventually forming the present Heaven Realm."

"And the Heart of Heaven, because it struggled to gather the remnants of the continent, utterly exhausted its energy, and fell into silence, never appearing again, not even during the tumult of the ancient war was the Heart of Heaven sighted. It was the Heart of Heaven that re-infused the Heaven Realm with life; otherwise, given the devastation of those days, Martial Artists might have been unable to comprehend the complete Laws, potentially unable to condense even the Blood of Heaven, unable to break through to the Heavenly Level."

The Primordial Heavy Water spoke dispassionately: "The Heart of Heaven can be considered a friend, family member, elder, or even...the teacher of conveying the way to all citizens of the Heaven Realm! Without her dedication, none of you...or us, would be here today."

"But, why are you advising me not to approach her?" After hearing the Primordial Heavy Water’s account, although Li Chen was deeply shaken, he couldn’t help but ask.

Faced with Li Chen’s question, the Primordial Heavy Water fell into silence.

At this moment, the other supreme treasures didn’t speak either, enveloped in a similarly eerie silence.

Nearby, Bai Shi, noticing something amiss with Li Chen, was about to speak but saw Li Chen raise his hand towards him: "Don’t say anything, let me be alone for a moment."

Upon hearing this, Bai Shi obediently nodded; the incident earlier had genuinely startled him. The normally reckless and unrestrained Bai Shi now fell uncharacteristically quiet.

"Actually, this is something we discussed a long time ago." Eventually, the Two-Yi Yin Yang Mirror sighed before speaking: "Originally, we had no intention to tell you this, but now, with even the Heart of Heaven appearing, we can no longer keep silent."

Li Chen’s heart sank, as he vaguely sensed that what the supreme treasures were about to disclose wasn’t likely to be good news.

"Someone like you, bearing great fortune and possessing astounding talent, to be honest, is a rarity even since the Heaven Realm appeared." The Two-Yi Yin Yang Mirror admitted with some helplessness: "But, it is not without precedent!"

"Before you, there was a man, born with great fortune, who once stood at the pinnacle of the entire Heaven Realm, respected by even the other Three Realms."

"But in the end, he vanished; no one knows where he went. Some speculate that he may have died."

"And you, very likely, are his reincarnated body."
