Ye Chen turned his head and saw a white figure in the pitch-black cave. Like a ghost, she floated silently to his side. If she hadn't spoken, he probably wouldn't have been able to detect her even if she had stood behind him with his sense of danger.
Terrifying!
Ye Chen's eyes were solemn. He said in a low voice, "I was passing by and saw you, so I followed you."
Bai Yijun's face was cold. She glanced at Ye Chen and said coldly, "You shouldn't have come to this place. You'd better leave on your own. Otherwise, if you lose your life, there won't be anyone left to collect your corpse."
Ye Chen wasn't angry. He nodded and said, "Okay."
Bai Yijun glanced at him and frowned. She didn't say anything else and walked straight into the cave.
Ye Chen waited until she was far away. He frowned and pondered, "This is just a C-class debris of the stars. The top monsters inside are only at the peak of the Demigod Realm. Such monsters are everywhere in this debris of the stars. Why did she come here alone?"
Ye Chen had always thought that it was a waste of time for this woman to lead the team to this C-class debris of the stars. Now, it seemed that she had her own secrets.
He pondered for a while and then restrained his aura. He performed a set of "Dead Man" secret techniques that he had learned in his previous life. Once he performed it, his vitality, breathing, and other auras would be completely blocked. He would be like a corpse.
As he performed the set of secret techniques, Ye Chen's skin seemed to be covered with a layer of faint gray air. His eyes also turned gray. He walked like a cat and followed her quietly.
He walked along the cave.
Ye Chen was very careful. He quietly absorbed the demon beasts that he had killed along the way and extracted the special light substance inside their bodies.
Due to the previous movement, Ye Chen did not follow closely behind this time. Instead, he deliberately slowed down for a long time. After walking for more than ten minutes, he suddenly found that he had reached a dead end. There was a mountain stone wall in front of him. Here, there were piles of demon beast corpses and many Soulless corpses.
Ye Chen's heart trembled as he looked around. After a while, he couldn't find Bai Yijun. He couldn't help but frown. Along the way, he didn't see the woman leave. How could she have disappeared?
With a flick of his finger, Ye Chen lit up a spark, allowing him to see the situation clearly. He then extracted the special light substance from the demonic beasts and waved his divine sword, digging out the soul crystals from the heads of the Soulless.
After working for a while, Ye Chen discovered that when these Soulless Humans reached the Demigod Realm, the Soul Crystals in their heads had disappeared, dug out by someone. Only the Ghost Deity Realm Soulless Humans were undamaged.
While digging, Ye Chen used the Sacred Flame Armor's holy flames to cover his body to prevent the blood of these Demigod realm demon beasts and the Soulless from touching him. Otherwise, even a little bit would be enough to infect him.
After harvesting, Ye Chen calculated that he had obtained a total of 25 soul crystals. Most of these soul crystals were from the Soulless at the peak of the Ghostly Immortal realm. Only a few of them were from the sixth or seventh level of the Ghostly Immortal realm.
Ye Chen looked around, but didn't immediately absorb the energy. Instead, he waved his hand, and a flame appeared, illuminating the entire cave. Ye Chen took advantage of this brief moment to look around. Suddenly, his eyes turned cold as they fell on the wall to the left. There, a demonic beast claw about three meters long could be seen, half buried in the ground ….
Ye Chen hurried over. With a flick of his divine sword, he pried the claw away. Immediately, he saw a black metal handle under the claw. In this pitch-black cave, it was inconspicuous.
Ye Chen walked over and took a look. After pondering for a while, he took a few steps back. With a flick of his divine sword, he cut off a large rock and threw it at the metal handle.
Bam!
The rock smashed into the iron handle, causing it to tilt slightly. With a cracking sound, the originally pitch-black rock in front of the iron handle suddenly split open. Bright light shone in from the inside and sprinkled on Ye Chen's face and body. It was as dazzling as the light.
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and looked inside. Behind the rock was a spacious path paved with platinum. On both sides of the path were never-wilting metal flowers and plants. At the end of the path was a dilapidated, old, and dilapidated wall.
It was as imposing as a city wall, but there were many cracks in the middle.
"It's a different world …" Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and checked his surroundings. After confirming that it was not safe, he walked in.
Ye Chen walked to this small path and looked up. The sky was blue, and the clouds were drifting. He could actually see the blue sky.
Ye Chen focused his eyes and looked for a while. He realized that the white clouds did not move. The sky seemed to be a decorative protective shield.
Ye Chen walked to the dilapidated city wall and looked inside. He saw that it was filled with flowers and trees. Dead trees and leaves were everywhere. He could vaguely see that it was a street. But now, because too much time had passed, green and tender grass grew out from the cracks in the rocks.
Ye Chen walked in. He did not know what species these flowers and plants were. They grew up to Ye Chen's waist and were extremely tough. They were like metal sheets. If not for Ye Chen's strong physique that allowed him to run amok, an ordinary person with a weak physique would have been cut to pieces by these flowers and plants the moment he stepped in.
"En?"
Ye Chen walked a few steps. Suddenly, he saw a white silk cloth on a patch of flowers and plants. He reached out and grabbed it. There was a faint fragrance from this cloth. "This is Bai Yijun's?
She also walked past here. I wonder where she went? "
Ye Chen thought for a while and put the silk cloth into his arms. He then walked forward. Not long after, he saw the second layer of the city wall. This wall was still intact. It was made of rare metal. There were only a few cracks, but it was not too damaged. Some of the defense systems installed on the metal wall seemed to have failed.
Ka!
Ye Chen stepped on it and suddenly stepped on a sound. He quickly looked down and saw that in the grass, there was a white skeleton. It was the size of a mastiff. He did not know how many years had passed. It had become extremely haggard. With just a slight step, it shattered into a pile of bones.
Ye Chen frowned. He walked past the skeleton and continued walking. Along the way, he saw four or five skeletons.
At this moment, Ye Chen came to the front of a dilapidated house. He was about to go around it when suddenly, a low roar came from the house. Then, a bloody claw full of violent aura stepped out of the house. It was as long as an elephant and covered in red hair.
Ye Chen's face changed. He felt an extremely strong fluctuation of divine power from this claw!
Run!
Ye Chen almost did not hesitate. He quickly activated the Lightning Superman Mode and rushed towards the stone wall. Originally, he was relying on the Lightning Superman Mode to take a look. He did not expect that before he could see anything, he would encounter a demigod realm demon beast. And from its aura, it was definitely not a demigod realm demon beast.
"En?"
Ye Chen's figure flashed and crossed a few hundred feet. Suddenly, he saw that the stone wall where he came from had been closed. His face changed slightly. "Could it be that this mechanism will be closed at a fixed time?"
He came to the front of the stone wall and looked around. He did not find any traces of mechanism. He waved his divine sword and slashed at the stone wall. There was a burst of sparks from the friction, but there was not even a mark on the stone wall.
"Roar!" A low roar came from behind. It was full of greed and violence.
Ye Chen frowned and decisively gave up on this mechanism. His figure flashed and rushed into the distance. Wherever he passed, the flowers and plants on the street were swept away like ripples of water.
When Ye Chen came to the next dilapidated house, a low roar suddenly came from inside. Then, a demon beast with light golden hair and a body like a tiger rushed out from inside. It looked ruthless and violent.
Ye Chen was shocked. He quickly went around this side and rushed along the street.
Whoosh!
A cold light brushed past Ye Chen's body. If he had not changed his direction as he ran, he would have been struck by it.
Run!
Run!
Run!
Ye Chen silently counted the ending time of the Lightning Superman mode in his heart. He looked around for a way out.
At this time, on the east side of the second wall, there was a bamboo forest path. It was full of weeds and seemed to lead to another place.
Ye Chen quickly rushed over.
Bang!
Ye Chen was about to rush into the bamboo forest path when he suddenly bumped into an extremely hard metal wall. His body was shaken and he retreated a few steps. He looked up in astonishment. In the middle of the path leading to the bamboo forest, there seemed to be an invisible barrier.
Ye Chen did not have time to investigate further. Two roars came from behind him.
He turned his head to look — —
On the side of the wall, among the weeds, a demon beast with light golden hair and a body like a giant tiger and another demon beast with a body as red as blood, a tail like a snake and four claws on its abdomen rushed over together. In Ye Chen's eyes, they were enlarged.
All of this happened in the time it took to breathe. Just as Ye Chen was about to take a detour in another direction, a whistling sound that seemed to come from beside his ear suddenly came from a distance. It was like an arrow leaving a bow, carrying an aura that could pierce through everything as it tore through the air.
Puff!
Puff!
A white light flashed and swept past the heads of the two demon beasts. Then, the two demon beasts that were roaring in a low voice suddenly became stiff. Under the inertia of running at high speed, they were rolled over four or five times and fell in front of Ye Chen.
Ye Chen's pupils constricted as he turned his head to look. There was a figure standing on a rock. His white shirt was like the winter snow, and he held a silver pistol in his hand. The space around the muzzle of the pistol twisted slightly, as if it was burning.
Under Ye Chen's observation, the woman slowly turned her head. Her expression was indifferent. She glanced at Ye Chen. Her voice was like raindrops that fell on Ye Chen's heart. "I told you to leave. Why didn't you listen?"
Ye Chen was startled. Then, he looked away and lowered his head slightly. He did not say anything.
Bai Yijun glanced at him. She seemed too lazy to say anything. She clipped the pistol to the opening of the belt at her waist and said indifferently, "That door can only be opened from the outside. It cannot be opened from the inside. Only those who have reached the Demigod Realm can use their divine power to open the passage. Otherwise, they can only leave through the spatial crack in the center of the ancient city."
As she spoke, she glanced at Ye Chen. "I will not waste my divine power for you. So, you can either wait for death here or follow me to the center of the ancient city. If you don't die on the way, consider yourself lucky."
