"This is the inside of the palace?"
The situation inside the palace was different from what Ye Chen had expected. He was only one step slower than Murong Qingcheng, and when he entered, he could not see Murong Qingcheng anymore. Besides Murong Qingcheng, no one else could be seen. What was in front of him was a tunnel that was sealed off from all sides, giving off an oppressive feeling.
Looking back, he could not see the door of the palace at all. It seemed like he had suddenly appeared in a tunnel. There was a tunnel in front of him, and there was another tunnel behind him.
"Strange!"
Ye Chen frowned as his forehead popped up and he let out his soul power. One hundred meters, two hundred meters … five hundred meters … The restriction of soul power inside the palace was surprisingly strong. With Ye Chen's soul power that was five times more powerful than normal people's, it could only cover five hundred meters, which was two hundred and fifty meters in radius. If it were a normal person, it would only cover one hundred meters.
Letting out a breath, Ye Chen withdrew his soul power and thought to himself, 'Within five hundred meters, there are countless tunnels. It is like a maze, and the walls are about one meter thick. I wonder how strong they are?'
Taking out his gold sword, Ye Chen threw out a sword attack on the wall on his left.
Shoo! A sword mark that was a couple of inches deep was left on the wall, and the silver powder was scattered everywhere.
"Normal attacks are almost useless?"
Indeed, if he performed his ace attacks, the power would be a couple of times more powerful than normal attacks. But, Ye Chen did not know where he was exactly. Even if he managed to break through the wall, it would be like going from one tunnel to another, which would be pointless.
"Never mind, I will explore the way first."
Taking a step forward, Ye Chen walked toward the tunnel in front of him.
…
"Why is there so many tunnels in this palace? Where should I go?" Situ Hao was a top young warrior who had just started to show up. Although the Situ family that he was from was not as powerful as the top four families, it was still a rank 5 family with thousands of years of history.
This time, the opening of the fourth floor of the tower was a rare opportunity for him. As long as he could get his hands on a semi extreme rank item, his power would increase even more. Besides the top five young warriors, no one else would be able to compete with him, including the number one warrior under the top five young warriors, Ye Chen.
"I already have a semi extreme grade great sword, so I just need a semi extreme grade defensive armor." Semi extreme grade attacking artifacts were not that rare, unless it was some gloves or the like. However, semi extreme grade defensive artifacts were definitely rare. Even a rank 5 power might not have one.
The passageway was not a straight line, but rather a winding one.
After turning a corner, Situ Hao kept walking. When he reached the end, he naturally turned again. "Hmm, is it a room?"
A joyful expression flashed through Situ Hao's face. In his sight, there was a door three hundred meters ahead on the left side, with a dim light shining out from inside.
"There must be an artifact. I hope it's a semi extreme grade defensive artifact."
His heart was beating fast for a couple of times. Si Tu Hao swallowed his saliva and quickly walked towards the door of the room.
"Not good, there are footsteps!"
Situ Hao heard the footsteps, which were very close.
The next second!
A young man in blue robes walked out from the corner, less than ten meters away from the door.
"Room?"
It was indeed Ye Chen. He had been walking in the passageway for a long time, and had almost gotten dizzy. He was not walking in this direction at first, but after hearing the light footsteps, he walked over. And the footsteps that he had heard were naturally Situ Hao's.
"Ye Chen, right? I found this room first. In order to avoid trouble, you should leave as soon as possible. " Situ Hao had naturally never seen Ye Chen before, but he had heard people describe Ye Chen's appearance. For example, blue robes were one of the symbols of Ye Chen.
Ye Chen said, "Everyone who enters the palace is looking for treasures. Seeing the treasures does not mean that they are yours. Plus, you haven't even seen the treasures yet!"
"It seems like you have never heard that one more friend is better than one more enemy." Situ Hao's face darkened as he placed his right hand on the sword handle. His palm slowly tightened, and that sharp sword aura shot out toward Ye Chen who was right in front of him.
"Whether we are friends or not, it is not up to me to decide. It should be between the two of us." Ye Chen could tell that this Situ Hao was one of the most powerful warriors among the top young warriors, and he would probably not be weaker than Beiming Hui. This time, the opening of the fourth floor of the tower had attracted all of the top young warriors who had been hiding in the dark. So, he did not dare to be careless, since some of the more powerful ace attacks would still be quite threatening.
"Alright! Everyone says that you are the no.1 warrior just below the top five young warriors. Today, I, Situ Hao, will see if you have the right to be called that."
"Three Extreme Sword!"
Situ Hao's first attack was already his ace attack. He took out his longsword and waved it out. Three beams of sword qi interweaved together, filling up the whole tunnel. Besides, Ye Chen could vaguely sense that there were thousands of strands of sword qi interweaved together like silk. Luckily, his perception was powerful enough. Otherwise, if he tried to pass through those gaps, he would be in big trouble for sure.
"Gold Pattern!"
Ye Chen did not intend to fight for a long time either, so he also used his ace attack. The gentle gold pattern was like a stone being thrown into a lake, spreading out and clashing with the sword qi that had been intertwined together.
Boom!
There were only two sides of the tunnel that could release their power. Waiting for that aggressive blast wave to explode, Ye Chen took out a top rank shield and held it in front of him.
However, Situ Hao did not have it that easy. The gold pattern was obviously way more powerful and aggressive than his Three Ultimate Sword attack. It had shattered his ace attack instantly. Although the gold pattern was not as powerful because of that, most of the shockwave from the collision of the two attacks was still directed towards him.
Pooh!
Before he could do anything else, Situ Hao was blown away into the sky, puking out a huge chunk of blood onto the top of the tunnel.
"Defensive Sword Spell!"
Something shocking happened. Situ Hao, who had been blown away, suddenly performed a sword spell and pointed out his finger at Ye Chen. As he pointed out his finger, a sword on his back automatically came out of its scabbard. With a lightning fast speed, it flashed out and stabbed toward Ye Chen.
The flying sword was way too fast, faster than most people's reaction time. If it were not Ye Chen, but some other top young warrior, there would be more than a seventy percent chance of being killed, and the remaining thirty percent would be severely wounded.
"What? Defensive Sword Spell!"
Ye Chen was shocked. As someone who had traveled from this world with his soul, he was very clear about the concept of the defensive sword spell. He had always thought that it was the power of a sword god.
After the shock, Ye Chen performed his spiritual sword attack instinctively.
Ting!
A clashing sound was heard in the air. Situ Hao's deadly attack had been broken by Ye Chen.
"My defensive sword spell has been broken? Impossible!"
The smile on Situ Hao's face froze. He had already planned that even if his Three Ultimate Sword could not do anything to Ye Chen, with his defensive sword spell, he would be able to wound him severely and kill him. However, he did not expect that Ye Chen's gold pattern would be this powerful, and it had even wounded him quite badly. But it did not matter, since performing the defensive sword spell in this situation would be even more effective.
However, he had miscalculated. Ye Chen's spiritual sword attack was extremely fast, and even his flying sword had been broken by one sword attack.
"Run!"
Without thinking about anything else, Situ Hao did not wait for his body to land on the ground. He pushed out his Zhen yuan and flew out the way he came from, turning into a series of shadows.
Ye Chen did not chase after him. Situ Hao's flying sword was way too fast, and Ye Chen had performed his spiritual sword attack without any preparation. His qi and blood were a bit weak, and it would be impossible for him to perform it a second time. Besides the spiritual sword attack, none of his ace attacks would be able to stop Situ Hao right away, since the distance between the two of them was too far.
"The defensive sword spell seems to be a bit different."
In the beginning, Ye Chen was indeed startled. If it were the real defensive sword spell, he might have to use all of his power to deal with it. However, his opponent's defensive sword spell was not that powerful, and it was not that flexible. It could only fly in a straight line, just like a shuriken. Only its attacking power was slightly more powerful than a shuriken.
The real defensive sword spell could be controlled with one's mind. Not only would it be extremely fast, it would also be able to turn in the air and attack the enemy from any angle. In this situation, unless one's defense was high enough, one would have to rely on speed to deal with it. Even if it were Ye Chen, he would have to use all of his power.
But obviously, Situ Hao's defensive sword spell was different from what Ye Chen knew. It had the power, but it was not flexible enough.
Of course, there was still a connection between the two.
No matter if it was Situ Hao's defensive sword spell or the one that Ye Chen knew, they were both essentially the same. The flying sword contained Zhen yuan, which would then be activated by the soul power.
Laughing at himself, Ye Chen mumbled to himself, "Warriors are warriors, and sword immortals are sword immortals. I am making a big deal out of nothing. Even if there were real sword immortals, they would not be able to do much. The profound sense that the warriors from the true spirit continent had learned might not be any weaker than what I had imagined. Seriously, once a warrior from the true spirit continent reaches the Sea of Souls Realm, which one of them would not have the power to break mountains? Once they reach the Life and Death Realm, they would even have the power to break the surreal world. Plus, this is not the end yet.
Calming himself down, Ye Chen started to walk into the room.
The room was not that big, and there was a stone platform in the middle. A light sphere was floating on top of it, and inside it was a sky blue armor.
"Semi extreme rank armor?"
Ye Chen was not sure, since the vibration of the armor had been blocked out by the light sphere. He could not tell the quality of the armor from the outside.
Pop!
He threw out a punch toward the light sphere, and a white dragon bone defensive layer appeared on the surface of his fist.
The light sphere was shattered, and the sky blue armor landed on Ye Chen's hand.
Boom!
The intense vibration from the weapon had almost shaken up the entire space. This vibration was a couple of times more powerful than normal top rank weapons. Only a semi extreme rank weapon would have this kind of vibration.
"It is indeed a semi extreme rank armor!"
Ye Chen let out a breath.
"Let's make the soul mark first."
Only with the soul mark, the armor would be able to bring out its full potential. With this armor, Ye Chen's' weakness' in defense would be completely gone.
Because of his talent in the soul, Ye Chen's speed of making the soul mark was very fast. In less than ten minutes, this sky blue armor had completely become Ye Chen's personal property.
