Chapter Eighty-six: Natural Cave

  The Western Wu Empire was already in such a precarious situation, but that's for later. When the time comes, Emperor Mingwu will think of a way to solve it. Faced with the massive national machinery, individual strength is limited. If one day the Western Wu Empire falls... Ye Chen thought about it and could only hurry up and improve his strength to avoid putting himself and his people in crisis.

  With the prestige of Yin Mong Tian, he didn't have to personally go to the underground crystal palace to take risks, and could just call some guards instead. However, he still came, showing his sincere heart.

  "Since you've made up your mind to descend into the Jade Palace, I'll accompany you for a while." Ye Chen said with a faint smile.

  Zhan Hu and the others saw Ye Chen's tone, somewhat displeased. They had six top-notch ninth-tier powerhouses, even if Ye Chen was strong, it wasn't necessary to use a condescending phrase, right? This put their royal guards in an awkward position.

  "Does Xiao You know how to get to the underground Jade Mansion?" asked Yin Mengtian, who had understood the meaning behind Ye Chen's words, with surprise and delight.

  "I only know a thing or two, but I'm only responsible for taking you part of the way. Once we reach the Di Bottom Qiong Building, if there's any danger inside, I won't be responsible." Ye Chen said, after all, they were just passing acquaintances, and the Di Bottom Qiong Building was full of unknown dangers, Ye Chen could barely take care of himself, let alone others.

  "Then thank you, little friend." Yin Mengtian said excitedly, in any case, he owed Ye Chen a favor.

  "Let's go!" Ye Chen said, walking forward.

  Zhan Hu and others all smiled bitterly, this place was full of demonic wolves, it was almost impossible to cope with them, how could they leave?

  Rage shatters mountains and rivers!

  Ye Chen let out a low growl, and with a loud crash, his palm shot out, releasing a blast of energy that sent over a dozen eighth-stage demon wolves flying backward.

  Everyone was stunned, Ye Chen's previous move "Red Cloud Seals the Sky" was already unmatched in its power, but this new move "Furious Shattering of Mountains and Rivers" was even more ferocious and overbearing. "Red Cloud Seals the Sky" should be a mid-to-high level 6th rank martial skill, while "Furious Shattering of Mountains and Rivers" should be a 7th rank martial skill. Normally, it would take even some geniuses five or six years to master a 6th rank martial skill, let alone a 7th rank one. Is this kid someone who started practicing in his mother's womb?

  As imperial guards, they have always been arrogant, but only today did they realize what it means to have others outside of people and heavens beyond the sky!

  These demonic wolves can't be killed off completely, killing a few would just have more of them replenish their numbers, they're really sticky. Ye Chen didn't want to use his divine soul, so he thought for a moment and said in a low voice: "A Li, use an illusion technique!"

  The pupils of Ah Li, suddenly burst out a wisp of mysterious light, those demon wolves suddenly scattered and stumbled, unable to stand still. After the tenth stage, Ah Li's illusion technique can be released through soul intention, and those demon wolves will be bewildered by the illusion even if they don't see Ah Li's eyes.

  Boom boom boom, one after another, the demon wolves were killed by Zhan Hu and others.

  "Huh, what's going on?" Zhan Hu and the others were shocked. Those originally ferocious and formidable demon wolves were now like they had drunk too much, and with just a casual move, they could be killed off. A ninth-stage demon wolf was actually slapped to death by Zhan Hu with just one palm.

  In other places, those people also took the upper hand and easily killed a large number of demon wolves, clearing this empty land of demon wolves.

  "What's gotten into these wolves? They've suddenly become so easy to deal with." The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, unclear about what was happening, each one feeling a sense of relief as if they had narrowly escaped disaster.

  Only Yin Mengtian's gaze fell on Ali, and only he discovered the divine light in Ali's eyes just now. Yin Mengtian was shocked, and the little fox on Ye Chen's shoulder looked very beautiful. He thought it was an ordinary low-level demon pet, but now it seems that this little fox is not a low-level demon at all, but a very powerful Xuan beast!

  Ye Chen's body had many secrets, but Yin Mung-tian didn't dare to continue digging. If he continued to dig deeper, he might know too much and wouldn't be able to be friends anymore. It was better to pretend to be ignorant. However, he made up his mind to get along well with Ye Chen, even if they couldn't be friends, they couldn't become enemies either. This Ye family fortress seemed like it needed more attention in the future.

  Everyone escaped, and many people quickly took out the curved knives from their backpacks and started to peel off the bodies of these demon wolves on the ground, digging out the demon pills. The eighth- and ninth-grade demon pills were all valuable goods! Even Xianhu and others couldn't help but rush to grab the ninth-grade demon pill.

  There were some teams that had conflicts over the Nine-Stage Demon Dan, and even fought each other, but they didn't dare to provoke Yin Mung-tian, Ye Chen and his group. The strength Ye Chen showed just now was witnessed by everyone.

  "It's human nature to cooperate in times of crisis, but when it comes to interests, greed cannot be suppressed, and even leads to conflict."

  Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders, this is certain, where in the world are there so many saints? If everyone were like Yin Mungtian, loyal to the monarch and loving the country, then there would be no more disputes in the world.

  Zhan Hu and others collected thirteen 9th-grade demon pellets and more than thirty 8th-grade demon pellets, all wrapped in cloth, handed over to Yin Mung-tian, saying: "Your Majesty, these are all the demon pellets."

  Ye Chen's divine soul noticed that Zhan Hu and the other five guards, when collecting the demon pellets, didn't have a single person secretly stash any of them. Not one was missing, they all gave them to Yin Mung-tian. These guards were truly loyal to Yin Mung-tian! Yin Mung-tian leading troops really has his own way of doing things.

  "If it weren't for Xiao You, we wouldn't have been able to escape so easily. I owe you a life debt and can't repay it, so consider this a borrowed flower offering to the Buddha. Take all these demon pellets, little friend." Yin Mung Tian handed the cloth package over to Ye Chen.

  Yin Mengtian's attitude was sincere, and Ye Chen thought for a moment before saying: "I'll take a few ninth-grade demon pellets, and the rest can be forgotten."

  Ye Chen opened the cloth bag and took out six 9th-grade demon pellets, stuffed them into the Qiankun bag, and said, "The rest can be ignored."

  Yin Mengtian wanted to give all the remaining demon pills to Ye Chen, but Ye Chen refused to accept them. He could only give up and put away these demon pills.

  Ye Chen took only six ninth-grade demon pellets, and when Ye Hu and the others looked at him, they all had a good impression of him. Ye Chen was steady and composed, with a certain elegance to him.

  The demon cores of the ground wolves have all been dug out, and many teams are leaving one after another.

  Ye Chen looked at Yin Mung-tian and others and said, "Follow me!" Ye Chen followed the guidance of that map, walking towards the depths of the cave.

  As we journeyed on, the caves ahead were relatively narrow, only allowing one person to squeeze through at a time.

  "This underground palace doesn't know how it was built, digging so many tunnels, don't know how much manpower will be consumed." Ye Chen said casually while walking.

  "Does Xiao You know the origin of the crystal palace under the ground?" asked Yin Mengtian, stunned.

  "What's the origin of this underground crystal palace?"

  "These tunnels are naturally formed caves."

  "These caves are naturally formed? How is that possible!" Ye Chen was puzzled, if they were naturally formed, why did these intersecting and crisscrossing caves resemble the meridians of the human body so much. The place where they had just fought the demon wolf happened to be at the Fengchi (Wind Pool) position on the human body.
