Chapter 178: Sneak Attack, Therapeutic Spirit Stone!
Rubbed storage ring, Yi Chen's face floated with a satisfied expression, this unexpected windfall, came really too unexpectedly.
The roar of the three-headed flame hound echoed not far away, and Yi Chen turned his head to look over, only to see it walking towards him with a cultivator's corpse in its mouth, wagging its tail as if seeking praise.
"Although the injury has not fully recovered, the combat power of the Flame Triple-Headed Dog is still very strong." Yi Chen looked behind the Flame Triple-Headed Dog and found that those cultivators were lying on the ground in a mess, already without a sound.
"Good job, buddy! Keep up the good work and next time I'll find you a nice female dog." Yi Chen walked over to Lie Yan's three-headed hound and patted its head with a smile. There was one extremely powerful magical beast that was different from the others.
"Roar" didn't know whether the three-headed dog of fierce flames understood Yichen's words, shaking its big head and making a very pleasing appearance.
"This fork in the road has been cleaned out, ask if there are any other treasures." Yi Chen's eyes flashed with a strange color, and he instructed.
As soon as the word "roar" fell, the three-headed dog sniffed its nose and let out a low roar, charging forward first.
"There's a magical beast with a keen sense of smell, or else it would be a waste of time searching for treasure." Yi Chen's face broke into a smile as he quickly followed.
Wandering around other intersections, Yi Chen continued to search for those rooms, only to find that many had already been visited by the repairers, and everything inside had been looted.
At this time, the magical beasts inside the Ice and Snow Palace had been cleared out, but the sounds of cultivators fighting still continued to ring out. Without the threat of the magical beasts, they began to turn on each other in a struggle for treasure.
"The things in this room have also been moved out." Along with Lie Yan's three-headed dog, they re-entered a room. Yi Chen's face showed disappointment as it was empty inside, with only a few cultivators fighting.
"Find the next room." Yi Chen waved his hand, and the three-headed flame dog turned around in perfect sync, leading Yi Chen to a more secluded area.
There is also a room here, and the stone gate is intact, apparently no one has entered before.
"Great!" Yi Chen's face lit up with joy, and then he clenched his fists tightly, bursting forth with a powerful aura towards the stone gate.
The heavy sound of "Peng" echoed in the air, and Yi Chen's punch was extremely powerful, but the stone gate didn't move at all, without being affected in the slightest.
"What a hard stone block." Yi Chen shook his somewhat numb arm, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
"I'd like to see whether this rock is hard or my fist is harder."
His complexion turned indifferent, Yi Chen spread out his hands and rapidly urged on his soul power. A strong soul power surged out along the meridians like an angry dragon.
A whirlpool can be seen in the palm, and the soul power is constantly gathering in the palm. A burst of thunder-like sounds echoes through the air.
"Mid-tier Soul Skill of the Five Elements - Heavenly Thunder Palm, Fifth Form!"
A loud shout burst from his mouth, and Yi Chen suddenly leaped forward, his palm carrying a fierce gust of wind that slammed into the stone gate.
A deafening roar like thunder shook the space, and the overbearing power charged towards the stone gate. However, an unexpected scene unfolded: the stone gate merely trembled slightly, with some dust falling off.
"Peng, peng." Yi Chen took several steps back with his hind legs. The previous attack did not achieve the desired result, and his arm was also shaken numb.
"What kind of stone is this made of, how can it be so solid." Yi Chen was extremely unbelievable, and then walked into the stone wall to observe carefully.
"There are many patterns on the stone wall. Is it the 'formation' drawn by Mo Jian Shi?" After a round of observation, Yi Chen noticed something unusual.
The patterns on the stone wall were very strange, with each pattern tightly connected to each other. And after several attempts at attacking, Yi Chen found that when he attacked, there was a flow of energy in the patterns that was difficult for the naked eye to capture, which resisted his attack.
"It turns out that there is a magic mirror array drawn here, no wonder it can offset my attack." With this discovery, Yi Chen's face showed a smile, and with a flip of his palm, the four-star artifact appeared in his hand.
This array has been around for some years, and the energy inside has become extremely weak. In this situation, using brute force can naturally break it open.
"Clang, clang." Yi Chen raised the tattoo machine in his hand and quickly poked it at those tattoos, accompanied by several crisp sounds, leaving a few eye-catching marks on them.
"In that instant, a dazzling light burst out from the texture of the stone wall, extremely dazzling, and Yi Chen couldn't help but squint his eyes."
That flash of light came and went quickly, and it wasn't until it had dissipated that Yi Chen finally opened his eyes, simultaneously putting the artifact away in his storage ring.
"Inferno, let's attack together." Yi Chen waved his hand at the three-headed dog Inferno, then retrieved the Heaven-Falling Heavy Sword from his storage ring.
The three-headed dog of fierce flames understood Yi Chen's meaning, let out a low growl, and then its body slightly lowered, the explosive muscles began to swell.
"Whoosh" Yi Chen also started to take action, the blue veins on his arm bulged out, and his soul power surged out like a crazy tide along the meridians, pouring endlessly into the Tianyun Heavy Sword. Without any reserve.
Many cultivators entered the Ice Snow Palace, and Yi Chen didn't want to waste time. Otherwise, later on, there would definitely be cultivators coming over, and it might cause trouble.
A strong gust of wind stirred around, the Heaven-Defying Heavy Sword released a terrifying aura, and Yi Chen continuously urged on his soul power. At the same time, he turned his head to look at Lie Yan's Three-Headed Hound and shouted: "Lie Yan, go up!"
With a loud roar, the three-headed dog's massive body charged towards the stone gate with a fierce bark, its sturdy hind legs propelling it forward.
"Peng!" The fierce impact of the three-headed dog's flames on the stone gate shook the air with a deafening sound, and the thick stone gate trembled violently, as spider web-like cracks began to spread out, but did not shatter.
"Sixth-Rank Intermediate Soul Skill: Sunfall Divine Flame Slash Third Stage!"
Such a result was completely within expectation, Yi Chen let out an angry shout and suddenly used his arms with great force, the Heaven-Defying Heavy Sword brought forth a loud whooshing sound as it chopped forward.
A burst of energy shot out from the heavy sword, and under the churning, a majestic and lifelike demonic beast condensed, baring its teeth and pouncing towards the stone gate.
"With a loud crash" at the moment of impact, the entire room shook, and a visible wave of energy rippled outward in all directions. The stone door burst open instantly, and dust filled the air.
"It's finally open!" A look of surprise appeared on his face, Yi Chen quickly sheathed the Tianyun Heavy Sword and rushed towards the room.
"Hiss" Just then, several residual shadows flashed by Yichens side, they simultaneously drew out their weapons and stabbed at Yichen.
The sudden change made Yi Chen's face turn cold, although he was somewhat caught off guard, but his reaction was very swift, his soul power surging under his control, forming a protective membrane around his body.
"Useless, even soul power can't protect you." One of the black shadows sneered, and with a sudden burst of force, its weapon pierced through Yi Chen's soul power and directly stabbed into his physical body.
"Hiss" The remaining few dark shadows were also like this, they easily pierced through the soul force.
"Pffft, pffft." Several muffled sounds rang out, and the air around seemed to stagnate for an instant, as if space itself had stopped rotating.
The "hiss" of air dissipated, and the powder that filled the air gradually dispersed. Finally, the figures of six people could be seen, among whom two were elderly with white hair, and four were middle-aged. From their cultivation, it was sensed that they were at the quasi-Huang Soul Realm.
"Despicable." Yi Chen's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he slowly lifted his head to look at the six people who had ambushed him. It seemed they had been hiding in the dark all along, waiting for him to open the stone door.
"I didn't expect you to be so strong, little guy. You were actually able to open the stone gate. However, the things inside don't belong to you. Thanks for opening the stone gate for us, though." One of the middle-aged men said with a cold smile on his face.
"With your three-legged cat kung fu skills, you really think you can kill me?" Yi Chen's face gradually became indifferent.
"Could it be that you..." The middle-aged man who had just spoken wanted to say something more, but his words were cut off halfway, and the rest got stuck in his throat.
"Get out!" Under their gaze, Yi Chen clenched his fists, and his body suddenly shook violently. A powerful shockwave burst forth from him, instantly sending them flying back.
The six people who were ambushed by "Peng" fell to the ground, looked up at Yi Chen with a shocked gaze and said: "We six attacked you simultaneously, how could you possibly be unscathed?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Chen looked at the place where he was stabbed. There was a hole in his long shirt, revealing the Wujixuan armor underneath.
"If it weren't for the Wujixuan armor, you might have succeeded. But you won't get a second chance." Yi Chen smiled calmly and waved his hand forward: "Lianyue, leave none alive!"
"Hou" burst into a fierce flame and let out a loud roar, then quickly pounced on the six people who were sneaking up, and miserable cries echoed in the room.
"If you want to kill someone, be prepared to be killed." Yi Chen's face showed no emotional fluctuations, but when he turned his head back to look at the room, he was instantly shocked by what he saw.
In the room, everywhere was filled with glittering spirit stones, and a surge of life energy rushed towards him, causing Yi Chen's body to tremble.
"Four-star Therapeutic Spirit Stones." Yi Chen's hands trembled slightly as he sensed that the ones in front of him were all Therapeutic Spirit Stones, with the vast majority being four-star Therapeutic Spirit Stones, and some even being five-star Therapeutic Spirit Stones!
This period of endless fighting has left Yi Chen constantly injured. At this time, his healing spirit stone had been used up, and what he needs most urgently now is a healing spirit stone.
And during this time, Yi Chen fully realized the importance of Therapeutic Spirit Stone. With the stone on him, he could recover more quickly and continue to fight.
"Four thousand four-star healing spirit stones, thirty five-star healing spirit stones, I've struck it rich!" Yi Chen's face revealed an expression of extreme joy, this was a huge harvest!
"Hiss" Although he was extremely excited, Yi Chen controlled his emotions very well, touched the storage ring and put all the healing spirit stones into the ring.
