Chapter 2685: Chapter 2659: Plan (Second Update)
Interesting, very interesting!
Bullying the weak, truly exhilarating!
…
After digging three meters deep, the stone wall proved to be empty as expected.
The group continued walking forward.
Soon, they arrived at a stretch of sandy beach.
Wu Keren closed his eyes to sense the surroundings for a while, then asked the group, “Do you feel that the atmosphere here is somewhat peculiar?”
Chen Yida and Zhao Chunwu nodded and replied, “We feel the same.”
“Exactly!”
Wu Keren pointed at the beach beneath their feet, then looked playfully at Ye Chen and said, “Ye Chen, dig ten meters here.”
Without a word, Ye Chen immediately began digging!
Before long, he had dug five meters deep!
Just then, Ye Chen’s eyes flashed with joy!
The Primordial Soul Pearl had finally been refined!
His soul power surged almost instantaneously, nearly doubling in strength!
The energy within the Soaring Wind Divine Vein had also been fully absorbed!
He could activate it now!
Although these three individuals were powerful, the Soaring Wind Divine Vein had experienced so much—it had absorbed countless unfathomable sources of power!
Tribulation lightning, Divine Light Ceremony, ancient battlefields, Poison Cave, Chaos Realm experts, Xuanyuan Han, and everything within secret realms!
Ye Chen couldn’t contain his excitement.
A fierce and savage smile appeared on Ye Chen’s face.
He suddenly said coldly, “Gentlemen, I’ve found a treasure!”
What!
He really found something!
A surge of Divine Origin Aura emanated from the pit.
Wu Keren and the other two exchanged glances, their faces brimming with joy!
“Ye Chen, quickly bring the treasure up!”
Ye Chen’s figure flickered as he returned to the beach, holding in his hand a pearl glimmering with seven radiant hues!
It was the Illusion Pearl!
The joy in the trio’s eyes intensified!
They had hit the jackpot!
The Illusion Pearl! What a remarkable find!
With a bright smile, Wu Keren reached out his hand to take the Illusion Pearl from Ye Chen’s grip.
But suddenly, Ye Chen let out a thunderous roar, “Catch this!”
An overwhelming force of spiritual sense, almost tangible, roared forth and infused itself into the Illusion Pearl. The seven-colored radiance instantly reached its pinnacle, enveloping everyone in a flood of dazzling light!
Ye Chen had endured this humiliation for so long because his original soul power and strength were insufficient to fully unleash the powers of the Illusion Pearl and ensnare all three in a magical world!
Thus, he had discretely focused on refining the Primordial Soul Pearl!
This was something only Ye Chen, with his heaven-defying constitution, could achieve! He restrained his power partly to deceive Wu Keren and others, and partly to concentrate on refining the Primordial Soul Pearl!
At this moment, the eyes of Wu Keren and the others were filled with confusion, as they stood motionless, grinning foolishly.
The Ancient Medical God remarked, “Kid, what do you plan to do now? I suggest you refrain from using the power of the Soaring Wind Divine Vein. It’s best to keep it for saving your life later!”
“Besides, the power of the Soaring Wind Divine Vein isn’t enough to kill these three. If even one of them survives, you’ll still be in danger.”
Ye Chen stared at the trio and asked, “How long can the Illusion Pearl keep them trapped?”
“One month!”
Ye Chen smiled, his killing intent surging, “Then I’ll take my leave for now!”
At this moment, if he made any move to attack, the trio might awaken from the magical world.
What surprised the Ancient Medical God, however, was that Ye Chen began performing finger gestures, marking the three with his own divine mark.
“Kid, what are you doing? Leaving this mark means they can find you no matter how far you run!”
“Who said I’m running away?”
Killing intent surged in Ye Chen’s gaze.
“We’ll find a hidden spot nearby and go into closed cultivation!”
A month—that’s enough!
Enough time to absorb all the treasures completely!
Wu Keren, Chen Yida, Zhao Chunwu—when we meet again, I’ll make sure you understand what martial artists from the Seventh Divine Nation are truly like…
Quickly, Ye Chen found a secluded cave and dove inside, placing a concealed formation at the entrance.
Sitting cross-legged, he brought out the Divine Flame Stone, Treasure Stone, Dragon Ascension Fruit…
And that drop of Divine Origin Essence Blood.
Without hesitation, he swallowed them all in one gulp!
Instantly, violent divine energy surged through his body!
A storm of blood-red flames engulfed him, making it seem as though his whole being was set ablaze!
Right after, Ye Chen’s cultivation level began rising rapidly!
The tremendous benefits made previously insurmountable breakthroughs unbelievably effortless!
Fury ignited Ye Chen’s heart!
Chaos Realm is powerful?
The Fourth Divine Nation is impressive?
So what!
I am Ye Chen!
…
A month later, Wu Keren and the others, whose faces had been blank with confusion, suddenly snapped back to consciousness, their eyes regaining clarity!
“Ye Chen!!!”
Wu Keren roared furiously. He finally realized that Ye Chen had completely outwitted them!
Zhao Chunwu and Chen Yida also looked equally enraged!
They, the elite dragons of Chengfeng Sect, had been played so thoroughly by a mere Great Void martial artist?
If word of this got out, how could they ever maintain their standing in the Fourth Divine Nation?
More importantly, they didn’t come to the Divine Origin Secret Realm for leisure!
Because of that brat, they had wasted a month of precious time stuck in that illusion?
A whole month—spent properly on cultivation, they might have advanced one or two smaller realms by now!
“Brother Wu, it seems the boy’s divine mark remains. No matter how far he runs, we can track him down!” Zhao Chunwu said grimly.
Chen Yida’s gaze turned cruel as he sneered, “Heh, didn’t expect this dog to have teeth? Looks like it’s time to teach him a proper lesson.”
Suppressing his fury, Wu Keren nodded and tapped his forehead, causing a rune to materialize on his brow. An invisible fluctuation spread outward!
Moments later, Wu Keren opened his eyes and frowned slightly, puzzled as he said, “This brat—after keeping us trapped for a month—didn’t even flee far?”
Zhao Chunwu said, “Let’s take a look first!”
By all logic, Ye Chen should have escaped as far as possible, but he was merely a martial artist from the Seventh Divine Nation. Could he pull off anything extraordinary?
Did the kid have another Illusion Pearl?
Heh, does he think treasures like the Illusion Pearl grow on trees?
Immediately, the three of them moved toward the cave where Ye Chen was hiding!
…
Soon, they arrived at the cave’s entrance!
Within the cave, Ye Chen suddenly opened his eyes, his expression calm but tinged with cold amusement. “Finally, they’ve come?”
By now, Ye Chen’s cultivation had broken through to the peak of the Great Void realm!
He was mere steps away from entering the Disaster Slaying realm!
Given the suppression of his reincarnation bloodline, it was extraordinarily challenging for him to achieve breakthroughs!
And now, with his leap in cultivation, the benefits of the secret realm were evident!
The trio landed outside the cave, with Wu Keren staring into its dark depths, his rage growing ever stronger as he shouted coldly, “Ye Chen! Can’t run anymore? Come out and face me!”
Footsteps echoed from within the cave.
Ye Chen’s form slowly emerged before the trio.
The three exchanged glances, their gazes filled with furious resentment!
So he’d been hiding here to cultivate?
