Chapter 3688 - 3678: Nine Heaven Netherworld Formation (Fourth Update)
Chapter 3688: Chapter 3678: Nine Heaven Netherworld Formation (Fourth Update)
A chorus of disciples shouted in anger, while the eyes of the attending elders flickered, each with their own schemes, choosing not to intervene, instead watching as the situation escalated.
At this moment, Ye Chen was inside the hall of Netherworld Peak. He had already noticed that many people had gathered at Netherworld Peak, but he was unconcerned.
Now, as he gazed at the slowly rising clear spring within the hall, a curve appeared at the corner of Ye Chen’s mouth; this was the Netherworld Spirit Water, the very place that Xiao Shuihan used to cultivate.
Within the Netherworld Spirit Water, the spiritual energy was overflowing to the extreme, even forming into flocks of Spiritual Cranes and Spirit Fish, frolicking in the spring, appearing very wondrous.
Ye Chen reached out to scoop up a handful of spring water, the spiritual energy overflowing, and in the next moment, it transformed into pure spiritual energy, flowing from Ye Chen’s palm into his body.
This spiritual energy was so pure that there was no need to refine it; it directly transformed into cultivation.
Just a slight bit of the spring water, and Ye Chen sensed a slight advancement in realms, stabilizing the breakthrough he just achieved, a joyful expression appearing on his face.
"It really is good stuff."
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow slightly; the Netherworld Spirit Water, sealed by Xiao Shuihan all these years, continually absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy. Therefore, even after years of being sealed, the quantity of Netherworld Spirit Water not only hadn’t decreased but probably doubled, now extremely abundant.
At this moment, as the Netherworld Spirit Water appeared in the hall, the hall itself stirred with anomalies. The originally old and dilapidated, dust-covered hall emitted dazzling radiance.
Under the swirling splendor, the hall was renewed, even exuding vast Divine Might, like the palace of a supreme emperor, imposing and awe-inspiring.
On the walls inside the hall, Ye Chen noticed runes that were glowing. These runes connected together, covering the entire hall, vaguely forming the Nine Heaven Arcane Sun and the Eight Trigrams of the world.
"This is the formation!"
Ye Chen’s heart quaked slightly; he didn’t expect there to be an array guarding the hall, and it appeared to be quite extraordinary.
As the master of Netherworld Peak, having refined the core of Netherworld Peak, Ye Chen had completely mastered it. Now, the name and function of this formation emerged in his mind.
"Nine Heaven Netherworld Formation!"
This is a formation imbued with the power of the Nine Heaven Arcane Sun and the majesty of vast Netherworld, capable of shaking everything when activated, unparalleled within the Six Paths Sect, a true monstrosity.
Moreover, the Power of Slaughter of the Nine Heaven Netherworld Formation was in no way inferior to its Guardian Power, easily obliterating countless powerful beings, sweeping like vast Netherworld Water, capable of suppressing all heavens and crushing the universe.
The Nine Heaven Netherworld Formation was so dreadful that Ye Chen thought it was acceptable. Given the preciousness of the Netherworld Spirit Water, the formation activated by it should have formidable power; otherwise, it would be an insult to the Netherworld Spirit Water.
At this time, outside the hall, a group had already reached the summit of Netherworld Peak. Seeing the emergence of the Divine Radiance, sweeping away the former dilapidation of the hall, their eyes filled with jealousy and greed.
"Ye Chen, get out; this Netherworld Peak is not something someone like you can possess!"
A disciple couldn’t help but shout.
"Right, the treasure should be reassigned by the sect; you’d better hand over Netherworld Peak quickly, or you’ll face the consequences!"
"Get out of there, hiding in the hall like a turtle!"
A group of inner sanctum disciples shouted one after another. Initially, they were concerned that Wu Duan Cang and others might not tolerate them, thus not directly scaling Netherworld Peak, merely testing the waters.
Only through testing did everyone detect that Wu Duan Cang apparently had no intention to intervene, which gave them the courage to ascend the peak, denouncing Ye Chen, compelling him to surrender Netherworld Peak.
Meanwhile, several elders with sinister intentions were also watching the hall with deep eyes. Though silent, they sensed Wu Duan Cang and others would not interfere here, clearly filling them with plots toward Netherworld Peak.
Ye Chen was within the hall, aware of this unfolding situation, a cold curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"A bunch of greedy fools, aiming for Netherworld Peak?"
Ye Chen’s heart stirred, intending to activate the Nine Heaven Netherworld Formation to expel these individuals, when he saw two figures shoot across the sky.
"Boom!"
The two figures landed directly in front of the Six Paths Sect crowd, amidst the billowing dust, revealing Yang Qianyu and Liu Yunmiao.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this Netherworld Peak is Ye Chen’s own choice. Moreover, it is the rightful privilege of a Chief Disciple. Forcing Ye Chen to surrender Netherworld Peak now is a bit excessive, isn’t it?"
Yang Qianyu coldly gazed at his fellow sect members, speaking with dissatisfaction.
While Liu Yunmiao didn’t speak, he directly walked to the hall’s entrance, turned around, and coldly looked at the crowd, clearly stating his stance: to enter the hall, one must cross over him first!
"Humph, Liu Yunmiao, you’re truly a loyal dog for Ye Chen, beaten and pledged allegiance!"
At this moment, an inner sanctum disciple with fiery red hair stepped out again. His name was Lei Rong, his strength slightly less than Yang Qianyu.
Upon hearing Lei Rong’s words, Liu Yunmiao snorted coldly but said nothing.
Liu Yunmiao knew that being defeated by Ye Chen and pledging allegiance meant keeping his promise. He was just following his convictions; the idle gossip from these people wasn’t worth his attention.
And now, seeing Liu Yunmiao unresponsive, Lei Rong sneered and then looked at Yang Qianyu.
"Yang Qianyu, I understand Liu Yunmiao being loyal to Ye Chen after his defeat, but what’s your reason? Are you pledging allegiance to Ye Chen too?"
"Such actions make me feel ashamed, battling you makes me feel disgraceful!"
Following these words, even Yang Qianyu, despite his good temper, was provoked to anger.
"Lei Rong, Ye Chen being named Chief Disciple was decided by the sect master. If you’re not convinced, take it up with the sect master, don’t bark here!"
"You’re courting death!"
Lei Rong, with his violent temperament, was enraged, his fiery hair igniting into burning flames, his body ablaze, his aura exploding, pressing towards Yang Qianyu.
"Is that all you’ve got?"
Yang Qianyu’s eyes flashed coldly, sweeping his hand, unleashing a violent storm that instantaneously dispelled Lei Rong’s aura.
Seeing Yang Qianyu’s calm demeanor, Lei Rong’s eyes flashed anxiety; Yang Qianyu subtly held the first rank in Six Paths Sect, his strength truly unquestionable.
"Well, since these two are so eager to be Ye Chen’s lackeys, let’s take them down and see if their master dares to protect them!"
At this moment, realizing he alone was not a match for Yang Qianyu, Lei Rong angrily shouted, calling others to join forces.
And hearing this, other inner sanctum disciples were also inclined. Each individually couldn’t match Yang Qianyu, but joining forces was the best option.
"Alright! Since Senior Brother Yang wants to protect this pretentious lad, then I, Zhou Tiankuang, must challenge him!"
Now, a disciple adorned in a black-and-white robe stepped forth, his aura violently sweeping, seemingly to crush all heavens. His strength was comparable to Yang Qianyu’s, giving him strong confidence.
