The battle between the Golden Crow and the Divine Insect ended in such a strange way. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they could no longer sense the divine power coming from the sky.
Ten days later …
The 27th level of the Great Void Grotto-Heaven.
This level was very vast. Although it was not as vast as the Xuanyu territory, it was not far from it.
The mountains were towering and extended for tens of thousands of miles, hundreds of thousands of miles, and even millions of miles. Ancient trees covered the sky.
The spirit qi on this level was a little strange. It was actually not comparable to the other levels. The spirit qi was very thin, not much different from that of the Great Void.
The vast land stretched as far as the eye could see.
This was a vast grassland. The green grass was like the sea, undulating with the wind like the surging waves of the sea.
Ye Xingchen walked alone on the grassland.
He had left the Sun Valley with Huo Yaoyao after the battle of the deities ended ten days ago.
Then, he sent Huo Yaoyao to the fifth level and handed her over to Lin Yanyu.
In ten days, he went deep into the 24th level, 25th level, 26th level, all the way to the 27th level.
"The spirit qi on this level is abnormal. Something must have happened," Ye Xingchen thought.
His spirit sense was sharp, and he could vaguely sense the abnormality of this world.
Ye Xingchen spent half a day crossing the grassland and entering a primitive mountain range.
The mountain range was very old, as if it was an ancient mountain range from the primordial era.
There were many very ancient trees, vegetation, and even spirit herbs and beasts that were extinct in the outside world.
"A Qilin Flower!" Ye Xingchen was a little surprised.
A blue colored flower bloomed on a cliff, and it was blue and crystalline while it emitted strands of a faint fragrance.
The flower was shaped like a majestic Qilin.
The Qilin Flower was a seventh-grade spirit herb. Rumor had it that only in the area where the Qilin lived and the flower was contaminated with the aura of the Qilin would it bloom.
A seventh-grade spirit herb was nothing to Ye Xingchen, but the Qilin Flower was already extinct in the outside world.
Moreover, the Qilin Flower was one of the main ingredients for refining the Supreme Elixir.
The Supreme Elixir was a Golden Elixir of Six Transformations. Consuming one could create a Heaven Ascension Mighty. It was one of the most precious Golden Elixirs of the ancient times.
Ye Xingchen was a little surprised. He did not expect to find a Qilin Flower on this level.
Bang!
Ye Xingchen flew towards the cliff. At this moment, a tail hook shot towards him like a long spear. Ye Xingchen shifted several hundred meters to the side, and the tail hook pierced into a nearby mountain, piercing through the mountain peak that was thousands of meters tall. Rocks flew into the air, and smoke and dust billowed.
Swoosh!
A large brown scorpion jumped out from a crack in the mountain.
This gray scorpion wasn't very tall, about two to three feet. Its entire body was grayish-brown, and it emitted a tyrannical aura.
This was a poisonous scorpion whose cultivation had reached the middle stage of rank seven. It was comparable to a middle Fragmentation Realm martial practitioner.
It was clear that this scorpion was the vicious beast guarding the Qilin Flower.
Clang!
Ye Xingchen activated the White Emperor Sword and slashed at Poison Scorpion.
With a clang, the Venomous Scorpion's stinger blocked the White Emperor Sword.
Ye Xingchen took advantage of this opportunity. With a flash of his figure, he executed the movement technique recorded in the Green Imperial Sutra and leaped up. With a single step, the mountains and rivers retreated backward.
When he came close to the Qilin Flower, Ye Xingchen was about to reach out and pluck the Qilin Flower when he suddenly felt his heart palpitate. Without thinking, he took out the Azure Thearch Sword and slashed behind him.
Clang!
With a soft sound, a scorpion one size smaller than the previous gray scorpion appeared. Its cultivation was at the early stage of rank seven.
Clearly, there were two poisonous scorpions here, and they were a couple.
The Azure Thearch Sword absorbed the chaotic mist. It was sharp and heavy, and it immediately sent this poisonous scorpion flying.
Ye Xingchen quickly plucked the Qilin Flower. His figure flashed, and he moved to the top of another mountain.
Boom!
At this time, the cliff where the Qilin Flower was located was destroyed by a tail hook.
"As expected of a mid-stage rank seven vicious beast. It is indeed powerful."
Ye Xingchen couldn't fight against a mid-stage Void-breaking Realm for the time being. His movement technique was fast, and he disappeared in front of the two poisonous scorpions.
Ye Xingchen flew into the depths of the mountain range and sensed a very powerful aura. The power was not weaker than the two poisonous scorpions just now, and there were even stronger existences.
He found a safe place and landed.
The 27th level was very unusual and a little strange.
There were many rank seven and eight vicious beasts in an ordinary primitive mountain range. This was too unusual. Moreover, the spirit qi on this level was thin, so it was reasonable for there to be so many powerful vicious beasts.
The Great Cosmological Abyss had similar spirit qi to this level. Not to mention rank seven and eight vicious beasts, even rank six vicious beasts were very rare.
Ye Xingchen realized that something was wrong here, and so did the other martial artists who entered this level.
Beside a lake that looked like an ocean, a silver-white True Dragon was fighting with a blue flood dragon. The two beasts fought, and wisps of light flew out. Wherever the light passed, it was destroyed.
The energy fluctuations here could be sensed within a radius of thousands of miles.
The silver-white True Dragon was a rank eight divine beast, and the blue flood dragon that was fighting it was also a rank eight divine beast. The two vicious beasts were fighting to the death for a green lotus that bloomed in the lake.
On the other side, a small bird that looked like a phoenix opened its mouth and spat out scarlet flames that rushed into the sky, burning a large part of the sky.
The small bird's opponent was a demonic ape. The demonic ape wielded a black iron rod, and the mountains within thousands of miles trembled with ferocious power.
The two vicious beasts continued to fight, and the battlefield spread for thousands of miles. Countless vicious beasts and martial artists fled desperately.
The reason the two vicious beasts were fighting was because of a purple fruit in the depths of the mountains. This purple fruit did not grow on a tree, but on a stone pillar.
"Young Pavilion Master, please step back."
In a desert, a middle-aged man with melancholy eyes and a thin figure reminded a young man behind him.
One of them was Swordsman Pavilion's Death Sword Sect, and the other was the Sword Master of Sword Seeking Pavilion, who was also the Young Pavilion Master.
Their opponent was a ferocious bird.
This ferocious bird looked like an eagle, but it was even more ferocious. Its wings were golden, and apparently, it had the blood of the Roc.
The rank eight ferocious bird spread its wings and moved extremely fast, covering thousands of miles in a blink.
Its attack was ferocious, and its wings were like blades as it slashed at Swordsman Death Sword.
Swordsman Death Sword's expression was gloomy.
He put his hand on the hilt of his sword and slashed.
"Chi!"
A sword aura that was a few hundred miles long flew out and split the sky in half. The ferocious bird was cut in half, and blood splashed everywhere.
It was close to the center of the 27th level. This was an area that had been destroyed for thousands of miles.
This place was a continuous mountain range. Looking from the sky, the mountain ranges were connected end to end, forming a circle.
There was more than one mountain range here. Many mountain ranges were connected end to end, forming a circle.
There was a dot in the center of the circle.
A group of martial artists had arrived. There were array masters among them, and they could tell that this place was unusual at first glance.
The result of this group's investigation was that there must be a Heavenly Treasure in the center of the circle mountain range.
The so-called Heavenly Treasure was a treasure nurtured by nature, and it was extremely precious.
They were very excited and flew deep into the mountain range. When they arrived at the center of the mountain range, they did not see any Heavenly Treasures, only a lonely ancient monument standing there.
The ancient monument was called … Divine Monument!
