"What? He repelled the undying monster?" The smile on Yuan Gold's face froze, and his face was filled with disbelief.
Rock Spirit Warrior retracted his disdain and said, "An extremely powerful sword intent. It's at least at the Spirit Master level. No wonder he could repel it in one move."
"Sword intent at the Spirit Master level?"
Yuan Gold was astonished. There were three levels in the Sea of Soul realm: Spirit Master level, Spirit Master level, and Master level. Didn't that mean that the latter's sword intent had already surpassed the Spirit Master level? How did he train? It was simply unimaginable.
"Force Field Cut!"
Murong Qingcheng's reaction was not slow either. She clasped her hands together, and the two opposite forces merged together, turning into an unstoppable cutting force field, which struck the undying monster's chest.
Peng!
The undying monster crashed into the wall of the building, and was bounced back by the restrictive power. Its chest was badly mutilated, and its stomach was almost cut open.
Ga!
The undying monster faced the sky and roared. It had thought that the two were soft persimmons, but who would have thought that they would be even more difficult to deal with? Especially that young sword artist in blue, who had dealt it a heavy blow without batting an eyelid. Not only was the wound unable to heal quickly, it had even lost a lot of Yuan Qi.
Shoo!
With a flicker, the undying monster left the area, unwilling to provoke Ye Chen.
"Oh, interesting. He can actually comprehend an attributed sword intent at the Astral Reaching realm. This is something that even Sea of Soul realm sword artists would have a hard time doing." Yin Demon Ancestor was more observant than Rock Spirit Warrior. He himself knew a Master level sword artist, who could be called a Master level sword artist precisely because he had comprehended an attributed sword intent.
Not far away, Iron Wood began to pay attention to Ye Chen, thinking to himself, 'This kid is not simple. In terms of perception alone, I'm afraid he can be ranked in the top five among the geniuses of the southern sector.'
"So powerful! Let's go over."
Ye Chen's strength made a lot of Astral Reaching experts intentionally draw close to him. They understood that Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng might not lend a hand, but with the two present, the powerful undying monsters would be restrained, and their chances of survival would be greater.
Regarding this, Ye Chen did not mind. Regardless of whether the other party came over or not, it would not affect him. Since it would not affect him, why would he cruelly chase them away? It was always good to leave some hope for others. Of course, this was if there was no effect. If there was an effect, Ye Chen was not a good person. He hated things that harmed others.
Seeing that Ye Chen and the other two didn't do anything, everyone felt even more relieved as they approached. As for the other Sea of Soul realm experts, it was not that they hadn't considered them. Unfortunately, these people were not amicable. If they had a good temper, they would keep their distance. If they had a bad temper, they would berate them harshly, and there was even the possibility of them killing them.
The first night passed. Before dawn, the ferocious undead monsters rushed into the buildings and hid in the darkness, waiting for the night to come again.
After temporarily escaping from the danger of death, everyone started to study what the thirteenth pattern represented.
Wang Tong pondered and said, "The thirteenth and fourteenth patterns are very abstract, I can't tell what kind of patterns they are. If I really want to say, there are at least hundreds or thousands of places in the Land of Extreme Negative Energy that fit the pattern. Obviously, this is impossible, so I need to categorize these possible places and find something special and different. Give me some time."
"No problem?"
Ye Chen nodded. It was impossible to find the location represented by the pattern, otherwise, the owner of the map would not have taken it out for auction. Ye Chen did not have to think to know that before the auction, the original owner must have spent a lot of time and effort to study the map, and only made this decision when he found nothing.
Ye Chen did not want to know what the original owner was thinking when he auctioned the map. All he could do was try his best. If there was no other way, then he would give up.
At the dawn of the fourth day, a distorted and fuzzy tunnel appeared in front of the Sun God Palace. Following this tunnel, all the survivors flew out.
After leaving the Golden Desert, Ye Chen and the other two stayed in the nearest Molan City.
…
"Haha! I got it! The thirteenth pattern is not a pattern, but an ancient character. An ancient character that disappeared in the long river of history. If you try to analyze it from the pattern, you won't know where it is in your lifetime. "On the second floor of the restaurant, Wang Tong excitedly rushed into Ye Chen's room.
Murong Qingcheng heard the news and hurried over, asking, "What character?"
"Tu Shui River!"
"Tu Shui River? How come I've never heard of it? "
Wang Tong explained, "Thousands of years ago, the Tsushui River existed, but for some reason, the Tsushui River gradually dried up, leaving only an underground river hidden underground. As long as we find the underground river, we can know the exact location of the Tsushui River."
Wang Tong was not the only one who had analyzed the thirteenth pattern. Until now, there were already more than a thousand people who had joined the search for the map of the undying body. Among these people, there were quite a few who were proficient in the history of Extreme Yin Land. Perhaps, there were a lot of people who knew some ancient characters, but there would always be some. Of course, it did not mean that these people were stronger than Yin Demon Ancestor. After all, everyone had their own blind spots.
"Eh? Several dozen people are heading in the same direction. Could it be that they have analyzed the thirteenth pattern?" In Molan City, Yin Demon Ancestor sensed something, and his eyes brightened.
No one knew that the three hundred copies of the map had been tampered with by him. They were branded with his soul imprint. These imprints were not common to ordinary Sea of Soul realm experts. They were more ancient and profound, something he had learned by chance. Unless one was a Life and Death King, no one would be able to detect the mysteries of the map.
"Hehe, all of your efforts are for my benefit. Only I, Yin Demon Ancestor, have obtained the secret of the undying body."
A confident smile appeared on Yin Demon Ancestor's face.
The process of searching for the Shushui River was very smooth. The three of them first found the location of the underground river. Then, according to the pattern of the underground river, they found the specific location of the Shushui River and dug out a stone tablet from the soil. The stone tablet was also engraved with three patterns, which were the ancient character pattern representing the Shushui River, the fourteenth pattern, and the fifteenth altar pattern.
"It seems like finding the Tachui River is useless. There is no information left on it. If the fourteenth pattern is the same, we can directly study the fifteenth altar pattern." Wang Tong originally wanted to find traces of the fifteenth pattern from the thirteenth and fourteenth patterns. However, he was disappointed. They had already seen the three patterns on the stele. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
"Since we've already come this far, we still have to go to the fourteenth location." Ye Chen expressed his opinion.
Murong Qingcheng nodded. "Regarding the altar pattern, we still don't have any clues. Instead of burying ourselves in deep thought, we might as well spend some time looking for the location of the fourteenth pattern. I believe that the fourteenth location should have some special benefits."
"Someone is coming." Ye Chen raised his head and looked into the distance.
Wang Tong said, "Should we destroy the stele?" He didn't have any illusions about the secret of the undying body. In other words, he didn't have the strength to fight for the undying body. Therefore, he hoped that Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng could obtain the secret of the undying body.
Ye Chen shook his head. "If we destroy the stele, we will become the target of public criticism. It doesn't matter if they know. There are no secrets on the stele anyway."
The instant the three of them left, three to four figures appeared near the stone tablet. Soon after, even more people rushed over, including the black-robed Yin Demon Ancestor.
"The third pattern on the stele is also the altar pattern. It seems that the altar pattern is the fifteenth pattern, which is also the destination of the map." Yin Demon Ancestor's mood was surging. The day of him obtaining the secret of the undying body was getting closer and closer. He suddenly felt a little regret. If he had contributed the map earlier, perhaps he would have obtained the undying body several decades ago.
"No matter what, only I can possess the undying body. If humans block me, I will kill them. If demons block me, I will kill them."
…
The location of the fourteenth pattern.
"As expected, there are also no discoveries here. There are only two patterns." One had to admit that Wang Tong was an outstanding historian. In half a month, he had already analyzed the fourteenth pattern and found the location. Unfortunately, just like the Great River, there was still nothing worth studying here. The only meaning was that he had found it.
"No, don't you feel that this mountain is like an arrowhead?"
Ye Chen said.
"Arrowhead?"
Hearing this, Murong Qingcheng released her mental energy, spreading it in all directions. Soon, she discovered that the mountain was different from the rest. Looking from the sky, this small mountain looked very similar to a huge arrowhead. She was very impressed that Ye Chen could notice this.
"Could it be that the arrowhead is pointing to the altar?" Wang Tong's mental energy wasn't as strong as Murong Qingcheng's. His figure flashed, flying high into the sky and looking down.
Ye Chen asked, "Is there anything special about the arrowhead?"
Wang Tong said, "The arrowhead is pointing to the west. There are many ancient ruins in this straight line. Could it be the Stoneman Array?"
The Stoneman Array was a famous ancient ruin in the Land of Extreme Yin. There were no treasures inside, but many experts liked to go there to comprehend. They all believed that the Stoneman Array contained an indescribable power that allowed them to comprehend things that were normally hard to detect.
Several hundred li behind the three, Yin Demon Ancestor was following closely behind.
The thirteenth pattern was first discovered by Ye Chen's group, and the fourteenth pattern was also discovered by them. There was no reason for Yin Demon Ancestor not to follow them.
"I've been waiting for this moment. The heavens didn't disappoint my Yin Demon Ancestor."
…
In the distance, the three saw the Stoneman Array.
The Stoneman Array was composed of numerous stone statues. The smallest one was dozens of meters tall, while the tallest one was over a hundred meters tall. These stone statues had different postures. Some were contemplating, some were gazing at the starry sky, some were meditating, some were waving their swords, and some were breathing. Not a single statue appeared superficial.
"There are many people here."
Murong Qingcheng's beautiful eyes roamed about. In her line of sight, there were many experts sitting cross-legged before the stone statues, quietly comprehending. Among them were a few Sea of Soul realm experts.
