There were a total of three low-rank Earth Realm manuals and five top-rank Mortal Realm manuals. If he were to exchange them with the sect, it would be nine thousand two hundred and fifty low-rank spirit stones, which was almost equivalent to all of Ye Chen's spirit stone savings. It was undoubtedly a huge fortune.
Putting away the manuals, Ye Chen looked around.
Eh!
On the other side of the wall, there was a foot-long yellow gourd, tied with a red string.
With a wave of his hand, the yellow gourd fell into Ye Chen's hand. He shook it, and a small friction sound came from the gourd.
"Pellet?"
Without thinking, Ye Chen opened the cork of the gourd.
Instantly, a fragrant smell came into his nose.
Pouring one into his hand, Ye Chen took a closer look. The pellet was the size of a pinky finger, and it was crystal clear with a hint of yellow. There was a faint glow on the surface, and the fragrance was even more intense. Just by taking a breath of the fragrance, the Zhen Qi in his body had improved.
Although he could not recognize the name and function of the pellet, Ye Chen knew that it was definitely not an ordinary item.
After putting away the manuals and the pellet, there was nothing else in the secret chamber. Ye Chen let out a breath and walked out.
The tomb was unimaginably large. The passageways inside extended in all directions. It was impossible to tell how many forks there were. It was like a maze.
At first, he was curious, but as time went by, Ye Chen got tired of it. Anyone would be annoyed if they were to wander around in the winding tunnels. Plus, there were not as many treasures in this tomb as he had imagined. It was already commendable for Ye Chen to be able to find a secret chamber.
After walking through a tunnel, a sword light suddenly shot out from the side.
"Courting death!"
Ye Chen did not even look at it as he twisted his sword back.
Puchi!
A martial disciple fell to the ground with his hands on his neck, his eyes wide open.
Taking a low-rank Earth Realm manual from the disciple, Ye Chen smiled bitterly. This person should have been trapped in the tomb as well, and could not get out. Unfortunately, at this moment, not only did he not find a way out, but he also killed people for their treasures. He deserved to die.
On the other side of the tomb.
Rumble!
A wall collapsed, Lin Yue growled in a low voice, "Damn it! Where the hell is the exit?!"
His luck wasn't as good as Ye Chen's. He only got one low-rank Earth Realm manual and three or four peak-rank Human Realm manuals from the disciples who were trapped in the tomb. He didn't get anything else. When he wanted to go out, he realized that he couldn't find the way back, and was completely trapped in the tomb.
"I don't believe there are many walls in front of me."
When Lin Yue became determined, he didn't care about anything else and kept walking in a straight line. No matter how many walls there were, he would smash them down.
Compared to Ye Chen and Lin Yue, Yin Wuqing seemed to be much calmer.
He took out a small and delicate wooden mouse from his bosom and embedded a low-grade spirit stone into its abdomen.
Creak!
The wooden mouse turned and ran in the other direction.
Following closely behind the wooden mouse, Yin Wuqing quickly arrived at the intersection where he came from. There, there was also a wooden mouse. The two wooden mice were together.
"The Lovesick Mice are indeed more clever than humans." Putting away the two wooden mice, Yin Wuqing walked into the giant whirlpool and disappeared.
Two hours had passed.
Hard work paid off, Ye Chen finally found the exit. Although it wasn't the entrance where he came from, he didn't have the time to think about it. He stepped into the whirlpool.
Swoosh … swoosh … swoosh …
Hearing the sound of wind, Ye Chen opened his eyes and saw nothing but emptiness around him. There seemed to be no end to it, and the misty clouds had gathered together.
Lowering his head, he saw that the ground was getting bigger and bigger in his sight.
He was in the air. This exit was indeed amazing.
Activating the [Crane Shadow Steps], Ye Chen's body instantly became much lighter. He shook his arms and glided towards the highland far away.
In front of the highland was a huge basin.
In the middle of the basin, a fierce battle was taking place. Three disciples were surrounding another disciple, and blood was spattering on the grassland.
"Yuan Hengkong, I've given you everything, don't go too far." The disciple who was being surrounded was wearing a blue robe, it was Lou Hanshan.
The leading disciple laughed out proudly and said, "I want everything, I want to kill you as well. What can you do to me? You can only blame yourself for being too weak."
"Hm, you're just taking advantage of the fact that you're outnumbered. If you have the ability, fight me one-on-one. If I die, I'll deserve it. If you lose, I won't kill you. What do you think?" Lou Hanshan's eyes were gloomy. He knew that the situation was not in his favor. If he tried to save face, he would only end up dead. The only thing he could do was to hope that his opponent would accept his challenge and have a fair fight with him, so that he could find an opportunity to escape. As for killing this guy, he had never thought about it. This guy was Yuan Hengying's blood brother, who was known as the 'Eagle Killer'. Yuan Hengying had always been protective of his people. Not to mention his brother, even if you killed a dog or a chicken, he would still kill your whole family.
Yuan Hengkong said scornfully, "Do you think I'm an idiot if I don't take advantage of you? Cut the crap, kill him!"
The three of them each launched their own attacks towards Lou Hanshan.
"East-rising Purple Qi, Great Monument Suppression!"
Facing three disciples who were just as powerful as him, Lou Hanshan boosted his Zhen Qi to its limit, drew a bridge-like stream of purple mist from the air, and boosted his power to a great extent. After that, he threw out a gigantic purple monument to protect himself.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The attacks launched by the three disciples were incomparably violent. The purple monument shook violently, and countless cracks appeared on it.
"Break!"
As a core disciple of the Sky Eagle Castle, which was a rank 7 institution, although Yuan Hengkong was not as powerful as his brother, he was definitely one of the most powerful martial artists under the Clasping Yuan Realm. He held a pair of purple golden hammers with both of his hands, and heavily smashed on the monument.
Crack!
The monument was shattered, and blood gushed out of the corner of Lou Hanshan's mouth.
"Die!"
Yuan Hengkong laughed out loud, while swinging his hammers towards Lou Hanshan's head.
"Piss off!"
Lou Hanshan's eyes popped out, and he threw a punch towards the purple golden hammers.
Clang!
Fire sparks flew in all directions, and a strong shockwave spread out, even leaving a deep layer of grass on the ground.
Right at this moment, another disciple took the opportunity to sneak up behind Lou Hanshan, ripped his protective Zhen Qi apart, and pressed his palm on his back.
Puff!
Lou Hanshan let out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale. He had suffered a serious internal injury.
"Let's see how you are going to take this!"
Yuan Hengkong's face twisted. He took a step forward and leapt high into the air, while his purple golden hammers burst out with a dazzling golden light, once again smashing towards Lou Hanshan.
Puff!
At this critical moment, a beam of sword Qi darted over from afar, and hacked on Yuan Hengkong's purple golden hammers.
The purple golden hammers flew out of Yuan Hengkong's hands, and Yuan Hengkong was greatly shocked. He stepped back once his feet landed on the ground, and regrouped with the other two disciples.
Lou Hanshan turned around, and said in surprise, "Brother Ye!"
A disciple lightly landed beside Lou Hanshan, and that was indeed Ye Chen. He glanced at Lou Hanshan, who was badly injured, frowned and said, "Brother Luo, you are injured."
"Compared to my life, a little injury is nothing." Seeing Ye Chen, Lou Hanshan secretly let out a sigh of relief. If the two of them joined hands, their chances of survival would be greatly increased, at least they wouldn't be able to do anything to them. Not to mention that he didn't know how powerful Ye Chen was, he could sense that Ye Chen's aura of sharpness was even more powerful than before. He estimated that Ye Chen had already reached the level of the 'North Snow Fast Blade' Lynch.
Yuan Hengkong glanced at Ye Chen, and found that he was only at the Late Condensing Reality Realm. He grinned viciously and said, "Another one who wants to die. Just now, you knocked away my purple golden hammers, I am going to smash your head, tear you into five pieces, and scatter them on this basin."
"Brother Yuan, he has a low-rank great weapon, kill him and take it."
"Indeed, look at the bulging big bag around his waist, there must be a lot more treasures."
Yuan Hengkong picked up the purple golden hammers from the ground and said, "What's the rush? In my eyes, this guy is already a dead man. As for treasures, I can share some with you."
"Thank you, brother Yuan."
Ye Chen sneered and said, "If you can take one sword attack from me, I will spare your lives."
"Arrogant!"
"How dare you!"
"How dare you! We will kill you!"
The three of them showed an intense killing intent, they pushed their Zhen Qi to its limit and rushed towards Ye Chen.
"Cut!"
Taking a step forward with his left foot, Ye Chen swung his sword down.
Puff!
A thick stream of sword Qi flashed across the waists of the three disciples, leaving a ten-meter-long and meter-deep sword mark on the grassland behind them. Grass chips and mud flew up into the air.
In the next moment!
The bodies of the three disciples were cut in half and scattered on the ground.
"What?! He killed three disciples with one sword attack?! " Lou Hanshan was so excited that he started coughing. Although he knew that Ye Chen was very powerful, he didn't think that he could be this powerful. He had killed three disciples who were at the same level as him with one sword attack. This was not something that Lynch could compete with. Even three Lynch's wouldn't be able to do this! However, Ye Chen hadn't even reached the Clasping Yuan Realm yet, how could he be so powerful?
No, that sword attack just now seemed to have absorbed all of my soul and spirit, as if it was the only thing left in the world. Could it be that brother Ye Chen has already mastered the sword intent, the sword intent that all sword artists dream of?
"Brother Ye, was that the sword intent?" Lou Hanshan hurriedly asked.
Ye Chen nodded.
"It was indeed the sword intent, haha, no wonder you could kill three people with one sword attack. A sword artist who has mastered the sword intent can challenge people who are at a higher level as easily as eating or drinking. This is not something that ordinary people can imagine." Lou Hanshan was very happy. He was the son of the leader of the Sky Cloud Martial School, and everything he did was for the development of the school. Now, a peerless genius had emerged in the school, which would definitely make the Sky Cloud Martial School even more powerful in the future.
"But you killed Yuanheng Ying's brother, this is not a simple thing!"
After the joy, Lou Hanshan started to worry. Yuanheng Ying, the 'Killer Eagle', was way more powerful than Yuanheng Kong. If he knew that Ye Chen had killed his brother, he would definitely chase after them at all costs. Although Ye Chen had mastered the sword intent and was able to kill any disciple under the Clasping Yuan Realm within a second, and was extremely powerful, he might still not be able to rival Yuanheng Ying.
Ye Chen said, "There's no one here anyway, it's not a big deal to kill him."
"You're right, let's get out of here as soon as possible!"
Lou Hanshan didn't want to stay here any longer, because he didn't want others to see them together with Yuanheng Kong's dead body.
Not long after the two of them left, a human silhouette walked out from behind a tree on the high ground in the distance. He chuckled and said, "If we run into Yuanheng Ying, we can use this as a life-saving talisman and ask him to let us go."
