Chapter 177: Got Rich! Soul Spirit Stone!
The corridor was littered with corpses, those cultivators had gone deep in, and occasionally a faint scream could still be heard from the depths.
Yi Chen's gaze swept around, discovering that among the corpses of the magical beasts, there were quite a few sixth-level magical beasts, all of which had been killed with one move, presumably by the Eastern Domain's Three Elites.
Cháng Cháng took a deep breath and drove out all the distracting thoughts in his mind. He then began to manipulate the hand seals, and his soul power started to surge up.
"Flaming Three-Headed Dog, come out!" The incantation changed continuously, and then Yi Chen shouted angrily, slapping his right palm on the ground.
As soon as the word "roar" fell, a thick black fog burst out along the meridians and stopped in front of Yi Chen. Under his gaze, it began to churn and gather into a demonic beast - the Inferno Three-headed Dog!
Since the Flame Triple-Headed Dog entered the Stone Spirit, Yi Chen has established a special connection with it and can even summon the Flame Triple-Headed Dog to serve him. This makes Yi Chen feel extremely unbelievable.
"Wasn't the movement of the three-headed dog that day a ceremony to acknowledge its master?" Yi Chen looked at the three-headed dog with a surprised gaze.
"Woof woof" saw Yi Chen looking over, the three-headed dog rubbed against his pant leg, wagging its tail, and in its beastly eyes, not a hint of hostility could be seen, only affection.
Seeing this situation, Yi Chen let out a sigh of relief. If the Inferno Triple-Headed Dog had hostile intentions towards him and launched an attack, then he would probably be in big trouble.
"Although it has not yet recovered to its peak, with only a fifth-level magical beast standard, it should be no problem using it to search for treasure." Yi Chen said with a hint of a smile.
The Flame Hound's strength is not only in its triple-headed combat prowess, but also in its extremely sensitive nose, which can detect the aura of heavenly treasures. In the Ice Palace, having a Flame Hound assist you would be most fitting.
"Inferno Triple-Headed Dog, lead the way!" Yi Chen waved his hand forward and immediately mobilized his soul power, vigilantly charging towards the front.
"Hiss" The three-headed dog of fierce flames, for some reason, seemed to have recognized its master. At this time, it was even more intelligent than before and immediately understood Yichen's meaning, leading the way for Yichen in front.
The demons here have been cleaned up, and Yi Chen and Lie Yan's three-headed dog are moving very smoothly. After a while, they arrived at the deepest part of the corridor. There were more than a dozen forks in front of them.
"Which way should we go?" Yi Chen's gaze swept across the forks in the road, the middle ones had corpses while the ones on the side did not, it was clear that no one had passed through the side paths.
At this moment, the three-headed dog let out a low growl and immediately rushed towards the first fork in the road to the left.
The three-headed dog of fierce flames could smell the aura of heavenly treasures, and Yi Chen's face revealed a smile. His figure flashed, and he quickly followed up.
This fork in the road had no magical beasts, and Yi Chen arrived at the deepest part of the fork very smoothly. Here was a broken stone gate, from which dozens of soul power fluctuations were coming out.
"Behind the stone gate should be one of the small rooms in the Ice and Snow Palace." Yi Chen scanned the stone gate, making this judgment.
Immediately, Yi Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, with dozens of soul power fluctuations inside, it seemed that someone had taken the lead.
"Hmph, I was the one who found these Soul Stones first, you'd better scram while you still can." A rough and angry voice came from inside.
"Things in the Ice Palace are ownerless, why should I give them to you? Kill me!" A fierce and menacing voice came from inside, followed by waves of soul power fluctuations coming from within.
"It's started!" Yi Chen hooked the corner of his mouth and waved his hand at Lie Yan San Tou Gou, charging into the room first.
Just as Yi Chen had just entered, a vast and powerful soul force fluctuation came rushing forth, this fluctuation was extremely intense, like the ocean's vastness, causing the beast soul's soul force to resonate in unison, humming softly.
"What a huge soul power fluctuation." Yi Chen's heart was shocked, and then he looked forward with his eyes widening instantly, only to see that there was a large pile of soul spirit stones in front of him, shining brightly and extremely dazzling.
"Four-star Soul Spirit Stone!" When he sensed that fluctuation, Yi Chen's eyes revealed a greedy color, and the number of Soul Spirit Stones in front of him was probably over 5,000.
Such a large number of Soul Spirit Stones, Yi Chen still saw it for the first time, his face was full of shock.
"Kid, this doesn't concern you, scram quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless." Just then, a cold and gloomy voice came from not far away.
Only to see that under the large pile of Soul Spirit Stones, thirty or so cultivators were divided into two groups, fiercely fighting each other. One middle-aged man coldly said to Yi Chen.
Upon hearing this, Yi Chen's mouth curved into a cold smile. He slightly sensed it and found that the cultivators competing here were only at the quasi-Huang Soul Realm.
Even if they were in the Yellow Soul Realm, facing such a large number of soul stones, Yi Chen would still take a chance, let alone that they were only quasi-Yellow Soul Realms.
Without the slightest hesitation, Yi Chen ignored the middle-aged man's threat and flashed out, his body leaving a residual shadow as he quickly approached the pile of Soul Stones.
"Little kid, you're looking for death!" The threat was ignored, and the middle-aged man became extremely enraged. He quickly rushed out and blocked Yi Chen's path, swinging his large knife towards his head.
A fierce gust of wind struck, and Yi Chen's eyes flashed with a cold light. He didn't choose to collide head-on, but instead twisted his waist, leaving behind a residual shadow as he quickly dodged the middle-aged man's attack.
"The speed is so fast." The middle-aged man was shocked in his heart, but he did not stop the attack. He turned the knife and wanted to launch another attack.
"Roll" just then, Yi Chen appeared in front of him at an extremely terrifying speed, spitting out a cold character from his mouth, clenching his fist and striking the middle-aged man's abdomen with overbearing power.
"Peng" dodged too late, the middle-aged man was knocked flying by Yi Chen's fist, his body like a wooden puppet with cut strings, heavily smashing onto the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and then there was no sound.
One move killed an early-stage Yellow Soul Realm cultivator, and the cultivators who were fighting stopped instantly, looking at Yi Chen with a gaze of horror, such strength made their hearts tremble.
"A little demon, how can it have such terrifying strength." Several cultivators swallowed their saliva and said.
"These Soul Stones, I'll take them. You can either leave or die." Yi Chen said with a completely expressionless face, feeling their gaze on him.
"Hmph, he just let his guard down for a moment. A little demon like you dares to speak so loudly? I'll kill you!"
A cultivator sneered and urged his soul power into his weapon, suddenly using force to quickly chop towards Yi Chen, the momentum was extremely fierce, a formless gust of wind blew around.
A dull thud echoed out, and a thick cloud of dust spread out from where Yi Chen had just been standing, obscuring the view.
"Can't withstand a single blow." Seeing this, the cultivator sneered. Just now, he had seen very clearly that Yi Chen hadn't mobilized even half a point of soul power, and was completely using his physical body to resist.
The cultivator's physical body was relatively fragile, he was confident that the previous move could take down Yi Chen.
"Are you talking to me?" Just then, a calm and composed laughter sounded from behind the cultivator, a strong killing intent spread out from behind him, making his heart feel cold.
"What, how is this possible." The cultivator reacted extremely quickly, rapidly turning his head to look back, and saw Yi Chen appearing behind him at some unknown time.
"Die!" Without a hint of mercy, Yi Chen's eyes flashed with coldness, his right fist wrapped in soul power, blasting towards the cultivator's throat.
That cultivator named Peng had no time to react and was completely defenseless, being punched by Yi Chen and sent flying into a pillar, where he fell silent.
"Can't withstand a single blow." Imitating the tone of his previous speech, Yi Chen said such words, and then coldly glanced at the cultivators present, indifferently saying: "Die, or leave."
If killing the first quasi-Huang soul realm was luck, how to explain the second one? Is it also luck? This is impossible, all the cultivators present broke out in cold sweat, and the young man standing in front of them was truly terrifying.
The cultivators present swallowed their saliva, turned back to look at the large pile of Soul Spirit Stones, and their faces turned ferocious. They then looked at Yi Chen with fierce eyes.
"This little brat is too arrogant, let's all go together and kill him!"
These soul spirit stones were extremely numerous and they did not want to give them up. They exchanged a tacit glance with each other, simultaneously mobilizing their soul power to attack Yi Chen.
The power displayed by Yi Chen just now was quite terrifying, but they didn't believe that he could fight against so many cultivators at the same time, which is why they chose to join forces.
Indeed, if Yi Chen were alone, facing dozens of quasi-Huang Jin realm cultivators by himself, he would have had no choice but to flee. But the current him was different.
"Infernal Three-Headed Dog, take them down!" Not a hint of panic, Yi Chen's face turned even colder, and he gave a low shout.
"Roar!" At this moment, a huge figure rushed in from outside and blocked Yi Chen's body, pouncing on those cultivators.
"What?" The cultivators were shocked and terrified by the aura released by the three-headed dog, their hearts racing with fear.
"Although the Three-Headed Flame Hound was injured and its cultivation had decreased significantly, with its current strength, it could still easily kill a Huanghun Realm cultivator, let alone you who are only quasi-Huanghun Realm."
Yi Chen's face showed a smile, and then he completely ignored those cultivators, directly rushing towards that pile of Soul Spirit Stones.
"Ah!" The cultivators behind him continued to let out miserable cries, facing the extremely fierce flames of the three-headed dog, those cultivators had no power to fight back, one by one falling under its beastly claws.
"Whoosh"
At the same time, Yi Chen also arrived beside the pile of soul stones. At this close distance, the fluctuation of the soul power became even more intense. Yi Chen felt that his own soul power was being drawn in, causing him to tremble slightly.
"Over 5,000 four-star Soul Spirit Stones, I've struck it rich!" Yi Chen's eyes were filled with extreme excitement, and he quickly touched his storage ring to store these four-star Soul Spirit Stones inside.
A large pile of Soul Essence Stones was thus taken in by Yi Chen, this being his first gain after entering the Ice Palace.
"I don't know what else is out there, but I wonder if Snow Crystal Stone is still in the Ice Palace."
