I was going to upload it at 11 o 'clock yesterday, but my computer suddenly crashed. I almost fainted from anger at that time. I went to fix it today, so it was even later.
… …
After an intense auction, the three sets of Soaring Serpent Skin and Scale Sets were quickly auctioned off. They received a large sum of money, allowing the acquisition plan to continue.
When the auction ended, many people who did not bid were still unsatisfied. They regretfully looked at Xu Tianguo as he left. They could not wait to rush up and search his body.
However, Xu Tianguo was a big shot of the Radiant Guild, so these people forcibly resisted the idea of robbing him.
On the other side, the exploration was still going on fiercely. Ye Chen led a group of elders, hall masters, and some experts of the Blood God Hall in a straight line to attack the Hubei region.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, four days had passed.
Near Shennongjia, Song Luo Village.
"Roar!"
A golden-white Diamond Ape was carrying a corpse on the side of the road. Its thick and hairy hands were holding the human's head as it dragged him into the distance.
Ye Chen and the others were crawling on a distant hillside. The bearded man stared at the Diamond Ape, then turned to Ye Chen and asked doubtfully, "President, why is this Diamond Ape not eating the corpse, but dragging it away?"
"Nothing." Ye Chen's expression was calm as he said, "It's most likely dragging it back to its nest for its young children to eat."
Everyone was startled, and their expressions became a little strange. It was hard to imagine that such a ferocious and terrifying monster could have such a "cute" side.
Seeing everyone's expression, Ye Chen sneered and said, "Don't be careless. To this monster, we are its food to take care of its' family '!"
Everyone's heart trembled, and their gazes towards the Diamond Ape became cold and fearful. The weak were prey to the strong, and whoever could stand firm on this land could dominate the order and set the rules of morality!
After the Diamond Ape left, everyone got up and walked towards the Shennongjia forest region.
Shennongjia was originally formed by the movement of the Himalayas and other tectonic plates together, forming a very unique stratum.
In this place, mountain peaks rose and fell, surrounded by white clouds. The landscape was picturesque. There were many golden monkeys, South China tigers, and other rare animals in the forest. But now, these animals had all become monsters!
Shennongjia was known as the "First Peak in Central China." The terrain was steep, and the peaks were tall and straight. If a base city was built here, it would be easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, the scenery here was excellent. There were four main rivers and 317 small rivers. In terms of water supply, it could be used to excavate the remains of the prehistoric civilization buried here in the future.
The only downside was that it was extremely difficult for the monsters to attack the city!
However, compared to its benefits, this shortcoming was not a problem.
Not long after, the group arrived at the mountains of Shennongjia. They felt that the surroundings were empty and quiet, with only the occasional roar of a beast.
"We've finally cleared Shennongjia!"
The bearded man couldn't help but laugh, his face full of joy. If it weren't for Ye Chen's leadership, with their level, it would have taken them at least a month.
"Everyone, take a break."
Ye Chen said calmly. He walked to the side and dialed Xu Tianguo's communicator, saying, "Are the materials ready?"
Xu Tianguo was startled for a moment, then said with surprise, "Shennongjia has been cleared?"
Ye Chen nodded, saying, "The materials can be transported here. My people here will go back and help with the transportation."
"Good!" Xu Tianguo quickly replied, "The materials here are all ready. I'll get them to transport now!"
Ye Chen turned off the communicator and said to the bearded man, "You guys stay here and watch. If the people behind us come up, set up tents here!"
The bearded man replied, "Yes!" After a moment of hesitation, he said, "President, where are you going?"
Ye Chen said calmly, "I'm going inside to take a look."
After saying that, he didn't wait for the others to respond. He turned and left, passing through several peaks and following the mountain path, he arrived at the top of the Earth Spirit Spring.
As soon as he went up the mountain, he saw the footprints of many monsters. Some were big and some were small. There were also scratches left behind by snakes.
Ye Chen's brows slowly creased. He quickened his pace and walked up the mountain.
A fishy smell hit him in the face. Ye Chen held his breath for a moment. When he looked up again, he saw an empty space. The yellow sand was dyed red by blood. After drying, it turned black. Countless corpses were piled up. There were broken limbs and bones. There were leopard corpses, snake corpses, tiger tails. They were all like garbage, piled up into a small mountain!
It was unimaginable what kind of fierce battle had happened here!
On the other side of the mountain of corpses, a white figure like a lighthouse sat cross-legged on the ground like an ancient fossil. It was motionless with its eyes closed. When it sensed another aura, its lantern-like eyes suddenly lit up, emitting two cold rays of light.
Ye Chen said, "It's me!
“
The white figure's cold eyes immediately turned into respect. Like a small mountain, it slowly stood up. Its loud voice was respectful, "Greetings, Master!
“
Ye Chen looked at it, saying, "How much energy do you have left?
“
The silver mecha warrior said, "8%."
Ye Chen waved his hand and opened up the rune space. He ordered the old Green Rune Man to take out the energy crystal for the silver mecha warrior to absorb. When he heard that he needed to use the energy crystal, the old Green Rune Man stared at Ye Chen with resentment. He slowly took out the energy crystal and warned the silver mecha warrior, "Big guy, absorb less.
“
The silver mecha warrior completely ignored him. To it, only Ye Chen and Elvi's words had to be listened to. The rest could be ignored.
Ye Chen turned his head and did not look at the old Green Rune Man's expression. He walked to the side of the Earth Spirit Spring. The spring water was clear without any impurities. It was now the fifth month. As long as he drank a mouthful of spring water, he could reach level 50!
He let Little Black wait for the Black Nightmare Worm to finish absorbing before keeping the energy crystal. He closed the rune space and said to the silver mecha warrior, "You wait here.
“
After the silver mecha warrior finished absorbing the energy, it stood at the side and said respectfully, "Yes!
“
Ye Chen waved his hand, and a stream of energy that contained the power of devouring enveloped the mountain of corpses. It formed a huge black mouth with a diameter of thirty feet. As it opened and closed, strands of light floated up from the mountain of corpses. Some were green, some were yellow, and some were white. They all had different attributes.
After the huge black mouth sucked in these strands of light, it chewed slightly and disintegrated these energy of different attributes into countless fine particles. It then refined them into energy.
Two hours later.
Ye Chen opened his eyes. The huge black mouth seemed to have sensed something. It whistled, and the last few strands of weak energy that floated up from the mountain of corpses were instantly swallowed up like a whale playing with water.
Then, the huge black mouth slowly shrank and condensed into a black ball. It rushed towards Ye Chen and was swallowed by him.
On his forehead, a slit appeared, revealing his third eye. It was cold and emotionless, looking at the world indifferently, as if it was sneering. In the pure black pupil, there were two dots of light, one gold and one red, circling around the edge of the pupil. If one didn't look carefully, it would be hard to notice.
Ye Chen felt that the Qi-Jin in his body had increased by a lot. It had reached the mid-stage of the Second Order. With just his Qi-Jin alone, he could unleash a force of 125000 kg. It was equivalent to the strength of a Level 250 expert!
The advantage of Qi-Jin was that it could be controlled at will. It could kill people who had not awakened their Qi-Jin. It was impossible to guard against it.
Ye Chen looked at the mountain of corpses that had lost their vitality and was rapidly rotting. His face was cold. He sent out a palm strike, and his Qi-Jin formed a huge black palm. It slapped out and scattered the mountain of corpses, pushing it to the edge of the cliff.
After that, Ye Chen called the White Dragon and said, "You guys leave China Base City and set up camp in Shennongjia.
“
The White Dragon was stunned, "It's been established so quickly?
“
"Not yet."
Ye Chen said calmly.
"…" The White Dragon rolled his eyes, "Manual labor again!
“
Ye Chen glanced at him, "There are a lot of monsters here. It's just right for you to hunt. You don't have to go out and find monsters every day.
“
"Only a ghost would believe that!"
The White Dragon mumbled, "Recently, China Base City even said that they want to promote me to a Senior Commander. The benefits are so good."
Ye Chen said calmly, "My benefits here are zero. You have to earn your own food and drink. No benefits."
"I knew it." The White Dragon's face was full of 'I knew it' expression.
Ye Chen looked at him, "Then are you coming?"
"Nonsense!" The White Dragon shrugged, "Of course I'm coming. How can I let Little Chenchen lose my company!"
"Go away."
Ye Chen glanced at him, "Come as soon as possible. Also, tell Mo Feng to bring the research tools. I want to extract the genes."
The White Dragon curled his lips, "Don't worry. That lunatic always brings his precious luggage with him wherever he goes."
In a distant laboratory.
"Ah Qi!"
Wearing glasses, Mo Feng was dissecting a beast that had lost its abdomen. Suddenly, he sneezed. His hand trembled, causing the cut to be crooked. He glanced at it and couldn't help but frown.
"Roar!" The beast howled in pain. It almost shed tears. It wanted to cry but had no tears.
…
After turning off the communicator, Ye Chen turned around and walked down the mountain. After four days of continuous hunting, his Constitution had reached Lv 170. The bearded man and the others had also benefited from this. The highest had reached Lv 70, while the lowest had reached Lv 50. They could all become generals of the base city!
At this moment, his ears suddenly twitched. He hurriedly crawled on the sand and looked up. He saw a beam of light quickly passing through the sky. Yes, it was light!
The light flashed and disappeared not far away. Ye Chen was about to look away when he suddenly saw the beam of light slowly descending. It stopped at a mountain in the distance and disappeared.
Ye Chen frowned slightly. His eyes showed that he was thinking. He pondered for a moment, then got up and ran towards the place where the light landed. Along the way, he passed through a dozen mountains and jumped into seven or eight streams. The water was so clear that he could see the bottom. There were fish monsters swimming in these streams. Because of the large area, their upper bodies were exposed to the air. The range of swimming was very small. Even an ordinary person could slowly smash these fish monsters to death by standing on the shore.
