Wind Storm King and Iron Hand King's storage rings didn't have any miscellaneous items, mainly upper grade spirit stones, some spirit grasses, precious gems, and crystals. Although there were some other extremely valuable treasures, they weren't many and only occupied a corner of the ring.
In the end, there were five million upper grade spirit stones, over a hundred spirit grasses of various grades, and more than five thousand upper grade gems and crystals. The most valuable one was a thousand supreme grade spirit stones.
Splitting evenly, Ye Chen gave Sun Tianlang more than one million and six hundred thousand upper grade spirit stones and three hundred and thirty supreme grade spirit stones. The same went for Murong Qingcheng.
"I can actually get three hundred and thirty supreme grade spirit stones." Sun Tianlang's gloomy face revealed a smile. Half-step Kings were in between Sea of Soul realm and Life and Death realm. Using upper grade spirit stones and supreme grade spirit stones could be used for cultivation. Using upper grade spirit stones would make one's progress extremely slow, but using supreme grade spirit stones would make one's progress several times faster. Before this, Sun Tianlang only had fifty supreme grade spirit stones, which he was reluctant to use for cultivation. In comparison, one million and six hundred thousand upper grade spirit stones didn't attract much attention.
Sun Tianlang's harvest wasn't small, but Ye Chen's harvest was something he couldn't compare to.
Ghost Wood King, Gopher King, and Shadow Chasing King contributed a total of six million upper grade spirit stones and eight hundred supreme grade spirit stones. Adding the one million and six hundred thousand upper grade spirit stones and three hundred and thirty supreme grade spirit stones, Ye Chen's harvest this time was seven million and six hundred thousand upper grade spirit stones and one thousand and two hundred supreme grade spirit stones.
Before entering the forbidden area, Ye Chen's upper grade spirit stones were even more than a half-step King's. On his way up, he had killed innumerable experts, and the wealth he had obtained was naturally unimaginable. Adding this harvest, Ye Chen's upper grade spirit stones astonishingly crossed the twenty million range, reaching a huge amount of twenty-one million. It was simply shocking.
Of course, the most valuable harvest this time was not the huge amount of upper grade spirit stones or the one thousand supreme grade spirit stones, but a pseudo supreme grade defensive artifact. If pseudo supreme grade artifacts were sold in the market, then twenty million upper grade spirit stones would definitely be enough to buy it. The key was that pseudo supreme grade artifacts were priceless, and could not be bought even if one had spirit stones. It should be known that normal Life and Death Kings didn't even have a pseudo supreme grade artifact, and used a semi supreme grade artifact.
The Gu family of the East Royal City was one of the oldest families, so it was understandable for them to have a pseudo supreme grade artifact. However, Qing Liu had a pseudo supreme grade attacking artifact, which should be out of luck. She might have found it in some rank 5 or even rank 4 ruins.
Murong Qingcheng then reminded, "Ye Chen, that armor has the soul mark of the Iron Hand King. If we do not erase it, it might be sensed by the Gu family."
"You're right."
Ye Chen nodded and said to the two, "You guys guard the surroundings for me. The Iron Hand King is a half-step King, and his soul is slowly changing. His soul mark will not be that easy to erase."
Ye Chen's soul was a bit strange, five times more powerful than the same level Seas of Souls Realm master level warriors. In terms of quality, it was beyond half-step King's, and was equivalent to normal Life and Death Kings. However, half-step King's soul had a soul membrane, but his did not. Ye Chen thought about it and felt that the soul membrane should be a special effect of the late stage soul.
If he wanted to erase the soul mark of the Iron Hand King, he would have to spend some effort.
"Don't worry, leave this place to us."
Sun Tianlang put away a large amount of soul stones, his expression serious. If he did not erase the soul mark of the Iron Hand King, this armor would be a hot potato. Who knew when it would cause trouble. After all, once the graveyard of the Four Extreme Emperor opened, the Gu family's King would come for sure.
Taking out the armor, Ye Chen sucked in a deep breath and poured his powerful soul power into it, searching for the soul mark of the Iron Hand King.
Generally speaking, the core of a treasure's formation was the best place to imprint a soul imprint. It wasn't impossible to imprint a soul imprint in other places, but it would make it difficult to control the treasure, and there would be some barriers.
Just as Ye Chen had expected, the soul mark of the Iron Hand King was imprinted at the core of the array.
Facing the invasion of Ye Chen's soul power, the soul mark struggled with all its strength, even using the energy of the armor itself to attack Ye Chen's soul power.
"Scatter!"
How powerful was Ye Chen's soul power? It was comparable to ordinary Life and Death Kings. With a shake of his soul power, the soul mark of the Iron Hand King that had just been mobilized immediately dissipated, unable to affect Ye Chen in the slightest. Not only that, the soul mark of the Iron Hand King also began to waver.
"Refine!"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Chen's soul power rushed into the core of the array and clashed with the soul mark of the Iron Hand King.
If Ye Chen's soul was only an ordinary soul, he would not be able to do anything to the soul mark of the Iron Hand King within a short period of time. It would take him at least a month, perhaps even longer. However, Ye Chen was a soul genius, and the quantity and quality of his soul power were much higher than the Iron Hand King's. Moreover, it was only a soul mark, so how could it compete with Ye Chen's soul?
After half the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the soul mark of the Iron Hand King dimmed, and strands of soul mist drifted in the air.
"Ah!"
Although this soul mark had no intelligence, it possessed the most basic of instincts. The instant it was about to be erased, it let out a soul cry and vanished like smoke in thin air.
After losing the soul mark of the Iron Hand King, Ye Chen easily left his soul mark at the core of the array. Moreover, Ye Chen's soul mark was much stronger than the Iron Hand King's. Even a half-step King would need several months to erase it.
After successfully leaving his soul mark, Ye Chen poured his Zhen Yuan into the armor. Immediately, the armor emitted an ancient bronze radiance, and bronze runes undulated within the radiance.
"Success?"
Sun Tianlang and Murong Qingcheng looked over.
"Yes."
Ye Chen nodded.
Sun Tianlang glanced at Ye Chen in astonishment. He thought that Ye Chen would need at least two hours to erase the soul mark of the Iron Hand King, and this was because he knew that Ye Chen was not an ordinary person. If it were anyone else, it would take at least a month.
"Someone's coming!"
Murong Qingcheng kept her innate demonic eyes open. Everything within three thousand meters was within her line of sight.
Without putting on the armor, Ye Chen put it away and asked, "Who is it?"
"It's Thunder Spirit King!"
Murong Qingcheng frowned.
"Thunder Spirit King? We'd better leave first. " Ye Chen waved the Thunder Disaster Sword, turning Wind Storm King and Iron Hand King's corpses into nothingness. His figure flickered, and he, along with Sun Tianlang and Murong Qingcheng, headed toward one of the passages at the edge of the open space.
Thunder Spirit King was one of the 'strongest' half-step Kings. Under Life and Death realm, he was invincible. Ye Chen didn't want to have too much contact with him. After all, who knew if he had any relationship with Wind Storm King or Iron Hand King.
Swish!
As soon as Ye Chen and the other two left, Thunder Spirit King's figure appeared in the empty space.
"Eh? A great battle took place here? "
Thunder Spirit King's gaze swept the surroundings. The sword scars on the ground and the holes in the walls were telling him that a great battle had taken place here. Both sides had high strength, and there was even a peak half-step King who could cause such a shocking destruction.
"Interesting!"
Among those who had entered the graveyard, apart from himself, there was only one peak half-step King — Punishment King. Although Wind Storm King's strength was close to Punishment King's, it was still a bit lacking. He could barely be considered a peak half-step King.
"Apart from Void Shattering Finger, only White Sheep King and Sky Scorpio King were taught other space profound martial skills. Hopefully, I'll be able to reap some benefits in White Sheep King's graveyard."
Thunder Spirit King's goal was only space profound martial skills. He didn't care about anything else.
…
Outside Gray Wolf King's graveyard, people arrived from time to time. Some came from the conveyor gate, while others came from the caves. The number of people kept increasing. In one day, there were at least fifty to sixty people. On the second day, the number increased to seventy.
"Everyone says that the closer you get to the graveyard, the more dangerous it gets. How come we didn't encounter any danger along the way?" A yellow-robed old man asked curiously.
"Perhaps it's just a rumor!"
"I don't think so. I'm afraid there's something else going on."
"Who cares about it? Gray Wolf King's graveyard's gate is already open. Let's go in."
Shua Shua Shua …
Like locusts, numerous half-step Kings and peak Masters entered Gray Wolf King's graveyard.
Shua!
After a while, a green light flickered over.
As they approached Gray Wolf King's graveyard, the green light revealed its true form. It was an extremely aged white-haired old man with a haggard face.
The white-haired old man's aura was extremely mixed. There was the vigorous life force of a tree, but also the gloomy death qi. The two auras intertwined together, creating a very strange scene.
"My lifespan is almost up. If I can't reap some benefits, I'm afraid I won't be far from death."
The white-haired old man sized up Gray Wolf King's graveyard before his figure flickered inside.
…
Inside Fire Bird King's graveyard, four inhuman figures flickered.
If Ye Chen's group saw these four figures, they would definitely feel their blood run cold. These four figures were none other than the Umbra Ghost Bat King, the Undying Swamp King, and the two Predators' descendants.
It turned out that after Ye Chen's group entered the graveyard, these four vicious creatures had hunted enough half-step Kings' flesh and were preparing to enter the graveyard to try their luck. They didn't want to guard the graveyard for the rest of their lives. The world outside the forbidden zone was the world they yearned for.
And it was precisely because they had left their original location and entered the graveyard that the people behind them didn't encounter any danger.
"Hmph, my strength has already recovered to its peak. No one can kill me anymore." The Umbra Ghost Bat King was in high spirits. His strength was above the Swamp King and the Predators' descendants. This group was also led by him. Relying on this strength, he could obtain a lot of treasures and then borrow the strength of others to leave the forbidden zone.
If he had the opportunity, he might even become a Demon King.
