Chapter 96: Giant Stone Formation Array (Seeking Recommendations!!)

  Ye Chen picked up various treasures at the bottom of the river, swam dozens of miles, and unexpectedly found many Qiankun bags. According to reason, this kind of Qiankun bag would corrode and deteriorate in five or six hundred years at the bottom of the river. It seems that these Qiankun bags were left behind by people who explored the river channel in the past few hundred years. Those people should have also become corpses at the bottom of the river.

  Inside these Qiankun bags, some elixirs were left behind, with hundreds or thousands of pills in some and dozens in others. Most of them are Jiqi Dan and Ningqi Dan. There are also some martial arts and technique books, but their quality is not high. These things were placed inside the Qiankun bags, and since the space inside the Qiankun bags is static, they have not been damaged.

  After searching the riverbed for seven or eight hours, Ye Chen counted his harvest. He had picked up sixteen Qiankun bags, and inside them, there were more than 600 Ningqi Dan pills. There were also seventy or eighty other kinds of dan medicines that he couldn't name. In addition, he found over ten books on gongfa and martial techniques, more than fifty pieces of armor and weapons collected from the riverbed, and five strange objects that he couldn't name, such as that pearl.

  Although Ye Chen couldn't tell the quality of those weapons and armor, he was certain that they were at least Spirit Treasure level. If taken outside, it would likely drive many people crazy.

  In front of him was a massive waterfall, with the river water rushing straight down into an abyss thousands of feet deep. He had no idea where the river flowed to. Ye Chen didn't dare jump down along the waterfall and could only swim out of the river surface. After reaching the shore, his eyes scanned around and found Qiu Yin and others walking along the riverbank in the distance, their gaze searching the river surface from time to time.

  Ye Chen's injuries have already recovered, but if he were to go up against Qiu Yin, he would probably still lose miserably. However, with his spiritual sense awareness, he can dodge Qiu Yin and the others in advance, making it impossible for them to catch him again.

  He plunged into the distance, flying over the rocky thicket, and disappeared among the rocks.

  After a while, Qiu Yin and others chased to this side of the waterfall, saw the waterfall flying down, and estimated that Ye Chen would not be able to jump down the waterfall.

  "Zuo Xiang, we've been tracking him for so long, and Ye Chen hasn't surfaced yet. He's been underwater for such a long time without coming up to breathe, I reckon he must have suffocated to death in the river already." Liu Kan said, he didn't believe that Ye Chen could still be at the bottom of the river after all this time.

  Qiu Yin sensed her surroundings and didn't detect Ye Chen's aura, guessing that Ye Chen might have already died at the bottom of the river.

  "This river rushes straight down, below is an endless abyss. That kid was slapped by me and suffered some injuries. Even if he didn't die, it's possible that the river current swept him into the deep chasm. With such a high drop, he should be dead for sure." Chuiying thought for a moment and said, although she didn't see Ye Chen's body, her heart was uneasy, but after thinking about it, she felt much more at ease.

  Below them was a chasm of a thousand feet, and they could go no further. They had to explore sideways, leaving marks as they went.

  Ye Chen thought, having gained so much, it was almost time to go back. This trip to the Di Bottom Pavilion could be considered a success. Originally, he had planned to wait for Qiu Yin and others to leave, then return along the river to the exit of the Di Bottom Pavilion. After the exit opened, he would immediately leave. Unexpectedly, Qiu Yin and others were actually heading in his direction.

  The perception of the strong at the tenth level is extremely keen, and if they are too close to Qiuying and others, they will definitely be discovered. Ye Chen thought for a moment, and could only continue to delve deeper into the underground crystal palace.

  Let's put aside the matter of Qiu Yin and others for now. Ye Chen sprinted all the way, with a large number of evil spirits around him. The levels of these evil spirits were much higher than those at the entrance of the underground crystal palace, with most being fifth or sixth level, and sometimes even seventh or eighth level. Fortunately, after releasing his divine soul, those evil spirits kept their distance.

  "Ah Li, where should we go now?" Ye Chen asked. The vast underground palace was boundless, but it was filled with all sorts of restrictions. Some places were impassable and could only be walked along the edge of the restrictions. As soon as his divine soul swept over these restrictions, he felt an enormous power that made one's heart tremble with fear. Tianyuan Senior, who had set up these restrictions, was indeed formidable!

  The raccoon dog shook its head dazedly.

  Ye Chen let out a silent sigh, the map in his hand had recorded how to get to the underground Jade Pavilion, but it didn't have a map of what was inside. Now he could only blindly grope around like a headless fly. His divine sense detected some strange auras, and Ye Chen immediately retreated far away.

  The divine soul has another benefit, it can leave a trace of the divine soul along the way, even if you get lost, you can find your way back by following the breath left behind by the divine soul.

  As they journeyed on, they occasionally stumbled upon the corpses of human powerhouses and demonic beasts that had just died. The mysterious energy emanating from these corpses had been completely drained, and there were signs of intense battles between powerful beings and demonic beasts in the surrounding area. Human powerhouses and demonic beasts had slaughtered each other, only to have their vital energy and souls become food for malevolent spirits.

  It's also unknown how long it took, but roughly two or three days later, Ye Chen had already shaken off Qiu Yin and the others. It was likely that they had taken a different path, but for now, he still didn't dare to head back. The mystery of the underground Crystal Palace had piqued Ye Chen's curiosity, although he didn't dare to venture too deep. For now, getting familiar with the first floor wouldn't be a bad idea. The ghosts and monsters on this floor weren't too strong, and with Tian Yuan's gift, it was likely that he would come back to the underground Crystal Palace often in the future.

  On the countless forbidden edges, Ye Chen also didn't know where this was in the first layer anymore. He carefully explored his surroundings, and from time to time, groups of demonic creatures would flash by around him. Ye Chen had already gotten used to it; as long as he maintained his Soul Guarding Body, he would be fine.

  Distant high-pitched whistling sounds came, followed by the sound of intense fighting, as if hundreds or thousands of people were in a melee.

  They are all at least ninth-tier or above! Along the way, Ye Chen discovered that the restrictions around him had an amplifying effect, and this fighting sound should have come from a hundred miles away.

  It may be that a strong human or a group of demons discovered something and began to fight over it.

  After some thought, Ye Chen still had a youthful heart and couldn't hold back, dashing off in that direction.

  Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, the wind whizzed past my ears.

  About two hours later, a vast and open plain appeared in Ye Chen's line of sight. Seeing the scene before him, Ye Chen took a cold breath. In the distance, on the ground, a huge array had appeared in his line of sight. This array was made up of giant stones, covering hundreds of hectares. Several giant stones were connected by long chains, stretching for thousands of meters. Above them floated six enormous ghosts, their feet locked in long iron chains, drifting back and forth like giant kites.

  Ghastly and ferocious creatures are lurking about, occasionally swooping down. The terrifying maw would from time to time blow out waves of chilling wind.

  Ye Chen hid on a mound outside and looked over in that direction.

  To the east of the law array, thousands of demonic beasts and mysterious beasts gathered together, entangled with the malevolent spirits. In another corner to the west, five or six hundred humans congregated, all of whom were at least ninth-tier cultivators. Such a group of people would be enough to cause a ninth-level earthquake if they were in the mortal world.

  Collected over 40,000, brothers, let's make a killing and show our momentum!
