Chapter 3565: Chapter 3565: Ye Lingtian’s Choice (First Update)
Kunlun Mountains, a hundred meters deep underground beneath a giant mountain.
This is one of the Dragon Soul bases.
Members of the Dragon Soul and the research institute looked extremely serious, skillfully manipulating the tablets in their hands.
Or staring at the data changes on the big screen.
The big screen recorded fluctuations in spiritual energy in 137 locations across Huaxia.
For the Dragon Soul, internal problems are not the most important; although Yuan Daofeng is hateful, he is not their primary target at the moment.
Their main concern is the fluctuation of spiritual energy.
This concerns the safety of billions of people.
There’s no room for negligence.
Fortunately, the numbers on the big screen are rising slowly, not posing a lethal threat.
Deep within the Dragon Soul, in a meeting room.
Ye Lingtian closed his eyes and leaned back on a black leather sofa, while Jin Lengyan recounted everything that had happened in Huaxia and the Kunlun Mountains over the past few years.
Jin Lengyan knew that Ye Lingtian had been out and didn’t know the current situation.
But the actual situation was even worse than she described.
Ye Lingtian slowly furrowed his brows; at some point, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. Having not smoked for years, his hand trembled slightly, and a cigarette was placed in his mouth, his fingers touching, as a cyan flame swirled around his fingertips.
The flame touched the cigarette tip, and smoke began to curl gradually.
He had too many doubts in his heart; why would the Emperor Abyss Palace have traces of activity in Huaxia?
What exactly are they trying to do?
Also, Jin Lengyan repeatedly mentioned Yuan Daofeng.
There were too many question marks surrounding this person.
With the experiences from these years, Ye Lingtian felt that Yuan Daofeng might have a significant connection with the Emperor Abyss Palace.
But he didn’t have any evidence yet.
Further angering Ye Lingtian was the Hall Master’s long absence, which had transformed everything here.
The once dominant Radiant Hall in the Kunlun Mountains had also changed.
He couldn’t help but lament, thinking that the once-held beliefs ultimately fell to human nature.
Everyone thought the Hall Master died on the Lingwu Continent, yet little did they know that the Hall Master was already standing at the peak of the Lingwu Continent.
"Mr. Ye, are you still listening?"
Jin Lengyan’s voice rang out again, pulling Ye Lingtian back to reality.
Ye Lingtian looked at Jin Lengyan and asked, "You just said Yuan Daofeng might not be in the Kunlun Mountains? Is there evidence for this?"
Jin Lengyan nodded, handed over a tablet, and explained, "Although the image is blurry, it can be almost confirmed that Yuan Daofeng appeared elsewhere recently."
"As for how he left, I really can’t figure it out."
"This is somewhat similar to the mysterious disappearance of that little girl."
Ye Lingtian extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said, "Let’s talk about the little girl and the spiritual energy anomalies later. Take me to where Yuan Daofeng appeared now."
"I have a feeling there’s someone behind Yuan Daofeng."
Jin Lengyan nodded, not dawdling, "Mr. Ye, let’s set off immediately."
"Alright."
Ye Lingtian took out the item Ye Chen had given him, hesitated for a few seconds, and then put it down.
In his view, he hadn’t fully understood everything yet, and if the Hall Master were to be called here recklessly, it could potentially disrupt the Hall Master’s plans.
Once the matters are basically confirmed within these days, he can notify the Hall Master.
"Let’s go."
...
Meanwhile, outer realm, Nine Death Realm.
Ye Chen was naturally unaware of what was happening with Ye Lingtian; at this moment, he looked at the giant in front of him with a strange expression.
The Giant Leader knelt on the ground, gesturing wildly toward Ye Chen, while the Heavenly Demon Emperor and Jun Mo watched in confusion. However, Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed.
The Giant Leader was tracing a pattern, a pattern Ye Chen was very familiar with; it was the same one on the robes of the Samsara Master from his previous life.
"Related to my previous life again?"
Ye Chen’s heart shook, unable to help but look at the formation being ravaged by the Golden Winged Great Peng, wondering if the ancestors of the giants were connected to his past life.
"Boom boom boom!"
At this moment, the Giant Leader frantically kowtowed to Ye Chen, and even his companions all knelt down; the sight of tens of thousands of giants bowing their heads was incredibly overwhelming, their massive heads hitting the ground, causing the earth to tremble.
The Golden Winged Great Peng, attacking the altar’s protective formation, also noticed this scene, its eyes turning cold, "What is this bunch doing!"
The Golden Winged Great Peng quickly noted that the giants were worshiping that pathetic human being, thinking these giants had been scared senseless.
The Golden Winged Great Peng sneered, becoming more indifferent, believing the giants were clutching at straws in desperation, then refocused attention on attacking the altar’s guardian array.
Amidst destructive blasts raining down, the altar’s guardian array was increasingly dim, shaking visibly, evidently unable to hold out much longer.
And Ye Chen, facing the giants’ kneeling, couldn’t bear to let them continue, immediately waving his hand to let them rise, simultaneously summoning a drop of blood essence.
Ye Chen’s blood essence was vast and magnificent, akin to the blood of a Supreme Sovereign; its appearance triggered the heavens’ vibration, gathering dark clouds above, with thunder roaring and sudden endless gusts swirling around.
At this moment, underlings of the Golden Winged Great Peng also arrived near the Giant Ancestral Land, yet before they could approach, they sensed the pressure from Ye Chen’s blood.
In an instant, countless ferocious beasts collapsed to the ground, limbs rigid, bodies chilling, as if the sky itself had descended upon them, filling their hearts with fear.
"What kind of power is this, what kind of majesty is this, could it be the Supreme Sovereign of the Universe has descended?!"
A ferocious beast at half-step Sky-filling Realm lay motionless, calling out in shock.
The Golden Winged Great Peng attacking the altar’s guardian array sensed this overwhelming blood pressure, causing its spiritual energy to destabilize, plummeting directly to the ground.
"What’s going on? Has the bloodline of the Giant Ancestor emerged? Haven’t I yet destroyed the guardian array?"
The Golden Winged Great Peng felt shaken; the blood pressure was terrifying, almost crushing All Heavens, dominating everything, even daring not harbor a hint of resistance, although the Giant Ancestor was powerful, it shouldn’t be to this degree.
In a moment, the Golden Winged Great Peng saw the blood essence Ye Chen summoned, complexion sharply tense; how could this feeble human possess such terrifying bloodline, far exceeding the Giant Ancestor by countless times.
"Seems like devouring this human far surpasses devouring the Giant Ancestor’s bloodline!"
The Golden Winged Great Peng excitedly rallied, the energy and blood within him surged violently, a fierce aura sweeping forth as he resisted the pressure of Ye Chen’s blood, rising into the air.
Beside Ye Chen, the giants, upon seeing Ye Chen summon his blood essence, began cheering loudly, bodies trembling with excitement. They were unmoved by the pressure, for Ye Chen exempted them from the blood’s intimidation.
