Swish swish swish!
More than forty pairs of eyes from Establishnt Kings pierced towards Ye Zhen, like sharp swords, in an instant, making Ye Zhen feel suffocated.
King Zhenshan looked at Ye Zhen with a cold sneer, as if wishing to devour Ye Zhen whole after driving him away!
Green Fla Gentleman Zhe Yang’s expression slightly moved; with his keen eye, he most likely understood that Ye Zhen was the one who caused King Zhenshan such a significant loss as rumors claid.
However, Zhe Yang had set the rules, insisting on clearing all the Vein Forging Martial Artists away. If he didn’t follow through, it would be like slapping his own face.
King Zhenshan seized this opportunity to suddenly strike.
As for any plans or sches after Ye Zhen’s departure, those remain unclear!
Suddenly, Ye Zhen boldly stepped forward to et the gazes of over forty Establishnt Kings, pointed at King Zhenshan and laughed mockingly, "King Zhenshan, you’re a defeated general under my command. If I am not qualified to search for treasure, how about you, a defeated general, what qualifies you to participate?"
"How about it? Not satisfied? If you’re not satisfied, step up, and I’ll teach you a lesson!" Ye Zhen cocked his head, looking extrely arrogant!
"You bastard, I’ll tear you apart!"
King Zhenshan’s face suddenly turned crimson, and with a furious shout, spiritual power erupted from him, ready to strike. But just as he was about to make a move, a blaze of green flas landed beside him, blocking King Zhenshan from launching his attack!
"Gentlen, we are all Establishnt Kings. Among those present, who doesn’t have grievances? There might be quite a few arch-enemies here!
However, today we are only treasure hunting, regardless of grudges!
If you want to fight, do so after finding the treasure or entering the secret mansion below, making it easier for us to hunt for treasures. But now, it’s not possible!
Everyone here has family and career, and none of you wants your precious ti wasted by others, right?" Zhe Yang said.
Palace Master Zhe Yang’s words imdiately gained the support of many Establishnt Kings present.
Indeed, each Establishnt King has a family, but also countless enemies watching them closely, ready to stab them viciously given any opportunity.
Hence, no one dares stay away from ho too long because a leaked departure can ruin everything.
Under such circumstances, no one wants to waste ti!
If you want to fight, go fight elsewhere, but don’t delay our treasure hunt!
This made King Zhenshan’s face flush with embarrassnt, not expecting that his spontaneous idea to vent would instead make him lose face!
Unable to act but reluctant to sheathe his sword, he certainly wouldn’t want to pull Ye Zhen aside for a deadly duel.
Why bother so much effort to co here if not for treasure hunting to seek breakthroughs?
To waste an opportunity for spiritual treasures over a minor grudge, that would be foolish!
Ultimately, compelled by Zhe Yang’s persuasion, amidst Ye Zhen’s mocking laughter, King Zhenshan grudgingly dropped a few nonsensical phrases, swallowing his resentnt!
However, many Establishnt Kings present now looked at Ye Zhen with new eyes.
Being able to defeat King Zhenshan Hu Zhen, or rather, take advantage of him, was indeed significant.
From today, King Zhenshan’s title as the defeated opponent of Ye Zhen, a Third Stage Vein Forging Martial Artist, will haunt him for life, ready to be mocked by enemies whenever possible.
"Alright, since Young Hero Ye is so exceptionally gifted, able to rival Old Hu, Young Hero Ye will gain the qualification to search for treasures! But, I am curious and looking forward to the chance to spar with Young Hero Ye, to see how Old Hu got bested!" Zhe Yang said.
Of course, Zhe Yang’s words were rely offering King Zhenshan a graceful exit. Not waiting for Ye Zhen to speak, he imdiately continued, "Based on the intelligence gathered from fellow practitioners, although the magma pit below is only ten thousand ters in radius, it’s five hundred ters deep. Breaking it open is easy; cleaning it up is not!"
"I have a plan here. I invite all fellow practitioners to cooperate, in hopes of revealing the treasure below as soon as possible!" Zhe Yang said.
Zhe Yang’s proposal naturally received a positive response from the Establishnt Kings present!
"In this case, I’ll take charge of the coordination. I request those skilled in Earth Elent Techniques to raise a isolation passage from the magma and pit edge in the shortest ti.
anwhile, those proficient in Water Elent Techniques and Ice Elent Techniques should cooperate by rapidly cooling the magma below as the passage is being created. We need to excavate this entire magma pit to reveal the treasure beneath!"
The prestige of Zhe Yang was undeniable. With a single command from him, everyone present complied. Among the more than forty Establishnt Realm Kings, eight were practitioners of Earth Elent Techniques, and eleven were practitioners of Water Elent Techniques, including four Establishnt Realm Kings with Ice Elent Spiritual Power.
Under the organization of Zhe Yang, these nineteen individuals began the excavation simultaneously from four different directions. Those Establishnt Realm Kings primarily cultivating Earth Spiritual Power, including King Zhenshan, pressed their hands to the ground and shouted mightily. The soil at the edge of the pit began to churn and roll as if an earth dragon was turning the soil.
In just a few breaths, a massive trench over ten ters wide and two hundred ters deep extended along the edge of the magma pit. Simultaneously, as another Establishnt Realm King behind them exerted more force, a great amount of dirt was excavated again, deepening the pit by over two hundred ters, revealing the magma below that had not yet fully solidified.
Martial Artists specializing in Water and Ice Spiritual Power simultaneously charged forward. Water vapor surged downward, instantly forming frost, causing the entire Tiger Mouth Gorge to fill with a white mist.
However, the most astonishing sight was not King Zhenshan, Hu Zhen.
In other directions, it required the cooperation of two Establishnt Realm Kings to excavate a trench more than four hundred ters deep. Yet, here, rely King Zhenshan alone, with unparalleled ease, excavated a trench nearly five hundred ters deep, revealing the fiery red magma below.
Having easily excavated a pit several kiloters long and five hundred ters deep, King Zhenshan looked up and gave Ye Zhen a sinister grin.
This profound Cultivation Power left Ye Zhen utterly amazed.
On that day, it was fortunate that Ye Zhen acted first; otherwise, it’s uncertain who would have suffered.
Of course, this further solidified Ye Zhen’s belief that whenever encountering King Zhenshan, preemptively striking without hesitation was absolutely the right choice!
Apart from this, there were two other Establishnt Realm Kings whose displayed power astounded Ye Zhen.
One was Chii Yulong, known as the King of Hengjiang, with a Cultivation realm reaching the Sixth Stage of Establishnt. However, his Water Spiritual Power Divine Power Secret Technique was terrifyingly powerful.
In Ye Zhen’s view, the Divine Power Secret Technique demonstrated by Chii Yulong, known as the King of Hengjiang, seed sowhat similar to his Earth Escape Skill and could truly be considered a Divine Power Secret Technique!
With a re gesture, streams of water fell from nothingness, continuously and unceasingly, enough to fill a trench a thousand ters long and five hundred ters deep.
The other was Luo Zhu, known as the Ice Fiend King, whose Cultivation level wasn’t high, peaking at the Fifth Stage Establishnt, yet his Ice Fiend Cultivation was terrifyingly powerful!
Without any noticeable movent, the boiling water above the trench, scorched by magma, instantly froze within a kiloter radius around him.
Moreover, as the chilling air dispersed around him, the fiery red magma beneath the ice rapidly vanished, a scene that made the present Establishnt Realm Kings look on with amazent.
Only these two demonstrated Divine Power Secret Techniques that sowhat resembled true Divine Powers, while the performance of the other Establishnt Realm Kings, though strong, did not surpass the realm of Martial Skills.
According to various Cultivation Classics, the Establishnt Realm is a barrier. Once a martial artist surpasses the Establishnt Realm, they will see a wider world. However, there are a few martial artists who can glimpse this wider world even before breaking through.
Ye Zhen thought that Chii Yulong, the King of Hengjiang, and Luo Zhu, the Ice Fiend King, were likely such individuals.
Ye Zhen did not count, as Ye Zhen’s Earth Escape Skill was truly a Divine Power, but currently, it was not Ye Zhen’s own skill. It was an ability obtained through the Essence Spirit Pearl of the Shadowless Mountain Penetrating Beast King inside the Mirage Dragon Pearl.
Should a day co when Ye Zhen, relying solely on the Essence Spirit Pearl of the Shadowless Mountain Penetrating Beast King, comprehends the skill of Earth Escape on his own, then Ye Zhen could be considered one of those individuals.
Under the command of the Green Fla Gentleman Zhe Yang, all forty-seven present Establishnt Realm Kings, including Ye Zhen, exerted themselves to cool down the magma that would have taken several days to cool, within less than three hours.
It must be said that the Palace Master of Green Sun Palace, Zhe Yang, handled affairs fairly, at least on the surface.
For instance, those Establishnt Realm Kings who exerted great effort using Earth Elent and Water Spiritual Power, before lifting the magma shell completely, Zhe Yang specifically allowed them two hours to restore their consud Spiritual Power.
Once their Spiritual Power was mostly restored, Zhe Yang gave the order, and all forty-seven Establishnt Realm Kings, including Ye Zhen, collectively exerted force, flipping the mountain-heavy magma shell of ten thousand ters square and five hundred ters deep.
The scene of the ten thousand ters square magma shell being flipped over was truly spectacular.
However, no one paid attention to this. At the instant the magma shell was flipped, everyone was astonished by the five-colored treasure light that burst out from below, resembling clouds and mist.
Like a dense fog, the five-colored treasure light burst out of the massive pit as the magma shell flew up, filling the sky with colorful light.
Within the colorful light, there seed to be an even more dazzling glow, but the dense Spiritual Power within the five-colored treasure light obscured the eye power of the martial artists, making it impossible to see clearly for so ti.
As the dense five-colored treasure light gradually thinned, beneath it, a gigantic palace gate, twenty zhang high and a hundred zhang wide, appeared before everyone.
Above the palace gate was a giant plaque shimring with colorful light.
"Ground Fire Heart Palace!" soone exclaid in surprise! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.)
