"The 18th Divine Elder of the Martial God Temple has arrived; Beast God, please open the Great Formation, there is a matter to discuss!"
As the voice of the mysterious person fell, the endless fog that enveloped the deepest parts of the Demon Beast Mountain Range suddenly parted, creating a deep and boundless pathway leading to the most secretive depths.
"Indeed, it is soone from the Martial God Temple, and he seems to be a person of no small standing—far higher than the Anyang Martial God, soone you could call a Divine Elder."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen guessed that the identity of this mysterious person must be extraordinary. To be called a Divine Elder, he must belong to the Heavenly Divine Realm, but even so, he was only ranked 18th. This revealed the terrifying foundation of the Martial God Temple; the true Heavenly God powerhouses were far more than just one or two.
As the pathway appeared, the 18th Divine Elder stepped into it, and soon after, the foggy pathway closed rapidly, preventing Ye Chen from following imdiately.
Elder Yan said, "Little Chenzi, do you still want to follow? However, I must point that out this is not rely fog; within it lies an unusual Magic Array, a combination of a Maze Array and Defensive Array, and it’s not an average Array—it is rather mysterious. Honestly, I am not adept at the Array Path. If we break through by force, there is so possibility of success, but it will also alarm the enemy, so think this through carefully."
The surging and tumultuous fog in front was completely impenetrable, unable to be explored or seen through, harboring an extraordinary Magic Array, which even soone like Elder Yan could only consider breaking through by force. One could imagine how exceptional this Magic Array was.
Yet, the corners of Ye Chen’s mouth slowly curved upwards in a slight smile, filled with boundless confidence, "Magic Array? It just so happens to be my specialty!"
Elder Yan was astonished at this revelation—that this guy was also proficient in the Array Path. It was then that Ye Chen softly called out, "Elder Yan, lend your power!"
Without hesitation, Elder Yan transferred a surge of power into his body. Feeling an unimaginably vast power flow through his limbs and bones, Ye Chen felt as if his whole body was filled with endless strength, as though he had returned to his past life.
With a re gesture, he could easily shatter the void, crush mountains and rivers for thousands of miles. The terror of it was indescribable.
Such mighty power!
After feeling this power, Ye Chen’s respect for Elder Yan grew, realizing that this strength was even greater than that of a Mansion Master, or even a Kingdom Ancestor.
Regrettably, it was still an external force from another, prompting him to sigh slightly. Then he stepped into the midst of the fog, with sparks of brilliance flashing in his eyes as he penetrated the fog, revealing the entire structure of the Magic Array in monts.
Every line of the Array’s circuitry, all of its mysterious intricacies, was reflected in his eyes.
"This Array is quite good, barely qualifying as a Level 4 Formation," Ye Chen said indifferently. Although he said it was good, his tone clearly indicated it was beneath his concern.
With swift motions, Ye Chen flicked his fingers, shooting out a series of radiant beams that disappeared into the fog.
Imdiately, the tumultuous fog parted to reveal a pathway, identical to the one the 18th Divine Elder of the Martial God Temple had entered—as if they were cast from the sa mold.
All of this greatly surprised Elder Yan, who had not expected Ye Chen to truly be an Array Path expert. Still, he asked with concern, "Little Chenzi, won’t the people inside realize that you’ve opened the Magic Array?"
"It’s fine, they won’t notice," Ye Chen replied, his light laughter filled with boundless confidence. In his previous life, he had deeply studied the Array Path and received true Array transmission. Although he had not yet reached the legendary Grandmaster Level in this area, he could still be considered an Array Master.
The Magic Array before him was decent, rging the Maze Array with the Defensive Array and containing many marvels. A common person who didn’t know better and stumbled in might be trapped within forever, unable to leave.
Even soone from the Heavenly Divine Realm might be completely ensnared. However, before Ye Chen, it was just a display of slight skill before an expert.
Besides, unless the presence in the deepest part was a Grandmaster Level Array Master, the chances of them knowing all this—
Impossible!
This stemd from Ye Chen’s powerful self-confidence. After opening the pathway, Elder Yan’s power dissipated, causing him a slight sigh. After all, it wasn’t his strength; he realized he needed to beco stronger, and fast.
He walked into the pathway constructed out of fog and, after winding around the Illusionary Array for a short while, erged just outside it.
However, the scenery before him changed dramatically. Compared to the lush forests outside the Array, here stood towering, majestic dark mountains, each thousands of feet tall, reaching into the clouds, with sheer majestic presence that was daunting.
On the pitch-black mountains, almost no vegetation grew, revealing an atmosphere of darkness and silence, accompanied by a cold, vast, and terrifying Qi chanism that spread slowly from even deeper within, engulfing everything and making one’s heart tremble.
Even Ye Chen had not anticipated that the deepest parts of the Demon Beast Mountain Range would be such a world, akin to a Land of Death, unsettling, and prompting him to beco more cautious.
Ye Chen made his way into the dark mountains, where the true core lay. Utilizing secret techniques, he perceived the faint trails of aura left by the 18th Divine Elder and followed them. After passing three black mountains, suddenly everything before his eyes turned dark, and a shocking scene appeared.
A colossal Divine Mountain stood before him, far larger and more majestic than any other mountain range could compare.
Soaring high and blocking out the sun, it could be called the Emperor of Mountains, far more gigantic and grandiose than any of the other black mountains. The massive mountain body seed to pierce into the boundless sky, covered by the clouds, as if reaching into the heavens.
Unbelievably, within the deepest reaches of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, such an imnse Divine Mountain stood, invisible from the outside world.
But this only made Ye Chen sense even more the extraordinary nature of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, far from an ordinary place.
Soon, Ye Chen discovered an enormous Ancient Hall standing at the foot of Divine Mountain. The hall stretched on endlessly, empty and void of people, standing there alone, with only an eerie, deathly silence.
Suddenly, Ye Chen’s eyes sharpened, for he saw points of starlight appearing in the void, countless and filling the sky, drifting from beyond the mists, all towards the Divine Palace.
Catching a speck of this starlight in his hand, his realization hit him, but his expression turned grave, "Spiritual power!?"
These points of light were all condensed from spiritual power, and they carried various auras, not from a single being, but countless creatures.
"How strange, why are there so many spiritual power lights, and these are ordinary people’s spiritual lights," pondered Ye Chen with astonishnt. Then, looking down at the ground, he discovered even more shocking streams of crimson flowing.
Upon closer inspection, these were not ordinary waters; they were real blood, not just one or two streams, nor dozens or hundreds, but countless.
Defying the principle that water flows downwards, the blood ca from all directions, converging into a stream. The streams of blood rged together, gradually increasing in volu until they ford a Blood River, flowing ominously toward the Divine Palace, filled with a sinister and dreadful aura.
All this made Ye Chen and Elder Yan feel an intense chill, as everything was just too bizarre. The appearance of the spiritual light and the Blood River sent shivers down their spines, bearing great horror.
But where did all this blood and spiritual light co from, especially the spiritual light which cannot exist in the world for long, bound to dissipate within a day?
Suddenly, Ye Chen’s face changed slightly; he thought of the fierce battle at Demon Suppression City, and suddenly understood the majority of it. So that was it.
What a Demon Beast Mountain Range, their loss of a precious treasure and the ensuing chaos among the Demon Beasts was a ruse, the real reason was to take advantage of it to devour the essence blood and spiritual power of countless living beings.
Could it be that the Beast God initiated the chaos just to absorb so much essence blood and spiritual lights, to supplent its own body and advance to a higher level?
The more he thought about it, the more terrified he beca. Having devoured so much essence blood and spiritual power, the Beast God must be unimaginably terrifying, even surpassing the Heavenly Divine Realm.
After all, the chaos was not an isolated incident. Looking back over the millennia of Xiafeng Country’s history, it happened every hundred and fifty years, and by now it had occurred at least six or seven tis, with casualties each ti numbering in the tens of thousands.
By now, the dead creatures have already exceeded a million. Just how powerful has the Beast God who devoured their essence blood and spiritual power beco...
Ye Chen’s expression beca thoroughly grave. While he was affected by warfare and the deaths of thousands, he understood that it was an inevitable aspect of the mortal world and thus felt justified in claiming the bone fragnt.
However, if the purpose of initiating chaos was to devour the essence blood and spiritual power of countless living beings, that was to follow the way of demonic cultivation, which deserved to be condemned by all and could not be allowed to continue, or else a great disaster would befall.
If given the chance, he wouldn’t hesitate to take action against the Beast God, to prevent it from bringing calamity to the world of n.
As if sensing the rising intent to kill within Ye Chen, Elder Yan appeared and said, "Little Chenzi, don’t act rashly, things are not as simple as they seem."
Ye Chen was well aware that until the truth was fully uncovered, he couldn’t make hasty judgnts. Besides, now that he was here, he also wanted to see what business the 18th Divine Elder had in this place.
He had a feeling that the visit of the Martial God Temple’s 18th Divine Elder to this place would involve a grand matter.
His intuition was usually very accurate and never failed him.
At that mont, his gaze shifted slightly because he saw a figure erge before the Ancient Hall. It was none other than the 18th Divine Elder from the Martial God Temple.
Standing in the void, the 18th Divine Elder bowed deeply toward the Ancient Hall with great respect, saying, "The 18th Divine Elder of the Martial God Temple, Zhang Bailong, seeks an audience with the Hongtian Great Saint. The Hall Master sends his regards and wishes to discuss the matter of Heaven Punishnt with the Great Saint!"
Heaven Punishnt!?
Ye Chen’s heart skipped a beat, feeling that he was about to uncover a grand matter of imnse consequence!
