The reason they came to the secret realm was to get life and death stones. If there were too many of them, the efficiency would be lower. Therefore, Ye Chen and Feng Piaoling did not hunt the evil spirits together, and soon separated.
In the inner area, there were many Life and Death Evil Spirits. Sometimes, there were even two or three Life and Death Evil Spirits gathered together. Sometimes, there were some strange Life and Death Evil Spirits, such as Ghost Evil Spirits without a specific shape or Self Explosion Evil Spirits. These Evil Spirits might not be powerful, but they were hard to defend against.
Shoo!
The sword light flashed through a misty evil spirit.
The evil spirit disappeared, and a life and death stone floated in the air.
"Finally got the second life and death stone!"
After separating from Feng Piaoling and the rest for half a month, Ye Chen was able to kill one or two life and death evil spirits every day. After half a month, he had killed twenty-four life and death evil spirits, and only now did he obtain the second one. It was not easy at all.
"I need two life and death stones to get from the first to the second level. I still need one more to be able to enter the second level."
With a wave of Zhen yuan in his palm, the life and death stone merged into his body as Ye Chen thought to himself.
"Let's find the life and death bridge first!"
He needed to find the life and death bridge first. There were only four life and death bridges in the inner area that led to the core area, which were not as many as the outer area and the inner area.
On the way, Ye Chen suddenly stopped.
In the distance, an unwilling roar was heard.
"Why? Why? Two life and death stones still could not help me enter the life and death chamber? Could it be that my potential is not as good as others?"
It was a normal-looking teenager who had made the roar. His cultivation was not low at all, having reached the top half step king warrior level. His Zhen yuan was quite rich as well.
Shaking his head, Ye Chen had seen this scene for the second time.
Although the people who came to the Life and Death Secret Realm were all top young martial geniuses with great potential, not everyone could make a breakthrough smoothly. Besides a small part of luck, it also had to do with an unstable foundation. Therefore, every time the Life and Death Secret Realm opened, although half of the people could get life and death stones, only a quarter of them could make a breakthrough.
After spending three days, Ye Chen found the life and death bridge that led to the core area.
There was not a single person beside it.
Taking a step forward, Ye Chen arrived at the bridge.
Buzz buzz buzz buzz …
This was different from the Life and Death Bridge that connected the outer region to the inner region. The stone statues on this Life and Death Bridge roared, sending ripples of sound waves towards Ye Chen. Aside from being extremely powerful, these sound waves could also numb one's body and cause their Quintessence to become unstable. If one was not careful, they would immediately be injured by the sound waves.
"I am afraid that without the peak of the first level of the life-and-death challenge, it would be hard to cross this bridge. The sound waves are way too powerful."
Ye Chen was struggling. In terms of strength, he was naturally not at the peak of the first layer of life-and-death challenge. However, in terms of cultivation base, he was already at this realm. The sound waves emitted by the stone statue contained life-and-death Qi. Every time it vibrated, it was an exchange of life-and-death Qi. Energy attacks and protective Zhen yuan could not completely shatter the sound waves. Therefore, the requirement for cultivation base was extremely high.
"Too slow!"
By relying on his cultivation, Ye Chen could indeed cross the Life and Death Bridge. However, it would consume a great deal of Quintessential Essence. Moreover, there was no need to look for trouble.
He released his Sword Domain, and the sound waves were immediately neutralized.
Ye Chen's body flickered as he crossed the bridge.
"How could that guy cross the bridge so easily?" Far behind him, a young genius noticed the scene on the bridge, and a trace of doubt flashed through his face.
As far as he knew, even geniuses at the second layer of life-and-death chamber would not be able to cross the bridge easily. As for those at the third layer, it would be quite easy, but they would not be like Ye Chen, whose body flashed and flew across the bridge.
He did not see the scene of Ye Chen struggling.
"Could it be that there is something wrong with this bridge?"
A joyful expression flashed through the young man's face.
Shoo!
Without any hesitation, the young man flew over and jumped onto the bridge.
Buzz!
Merely two rings of sound waves were enough to send the young man flying back while puking blood. The powerful vibrations even tore apart his clothes, leaving him naked.
"F * ck! Playing with me!"
The young man howled miserably.
…
"F * ck! How can the evil spirits here be so powerful!"
Somewhere in the core area, a young genius at the peak of the first layer of life-and-death challenge was pierced through by a snake-shaped evil spirit and sent out of the secret realm.
"If I had known earlier, I would not have come to the core area."
"Too powerful! These evil spirits are simply monstrous!"
This scene was happening everywhere. Those who were 'killed' were first layer life-and-death challenge and second layer life-and-death challenges.
"High level evil spirits?"
Exterminating a life and death evil spirit with difficulty, Young Eagle Lord muttered to himself.
The life and death evil spirits in the secret realm did not have any ranks. However, the people who entered had divided them into four ranks.
They were low level evil spirits, mid level evil spirits, high level evil spirits, and peak evil spirits.
Low level evil spirits usually appeared in the outer area, mid level evil spirits in the inner area, and high level and peak evil spirits in the core area.
Low and mid level evil spirits were not very strong. High level evil spirits had the strength of the second layer, while the stronger ones had reached the third layer. As for peak level evil spirits, they were not existences that could be killed by a single person. Even existences like Young Elephant Lord and Young Undying Demon Lord would have to flee upon encountering peak level evil spirits to avoid being exhausted to death.
In the past thousand years, only a few people could kill a peak evil spirit alone, and one of them was precisely Xuanhou.
"I was careless!"
Near the center of the core area, an unwilling expression flickered on Liu Wujian's face. His waist had been cut into two, and his body was gradually fading away.
Not far behind him stood a humanoid evil spirit with a long horn on its head. Its figure was extremely clear, and its skin was like scales. If it had intelligence, it would not be an exaggeration to regard it as a living being. The savage aura it emitted was too frightening.
In fact, if Liu Wujian had been a bit more cautious, he would have had the opportunity to escape the moment he encountered this Life and Death Evil Spirit. However, he didn't. He thought that by relying on the Life-and-Death Stone and raising his cultivation base to the second layer of Life-and-Death Chamber, he would be able to walk unhindered in Life and Death Secret Realm.
He was wrong!
…
"I almost died!"
In another location, Yan Fengfeng let out a breath and looked into the distance with lingering fear.
That life and death evil spirit was extremely frightening. If not for her speed, she would not have been able to escape in a battle.
…
"Something's wrong. Why are peak evil spirits so easy to encounter this time? I remember last time, there were only a few of them in the core area."
Luo Tiandu's face was full of confusion.
"Could it be because the quality of the geniuses this time is too high, and the number is too many?" Luo Tiandu thought of a possibility.
…
"Worthy of being a high rank evil spirit!"
Killing low rank and mid rank evil spirits did not require much effort from Ye Chen. Although it was still easy for him to kill high rank evil spirits, it was impossible for him to do so without any effort. Especially the Ghost Evil Spirits and the Self Exploding Evil Spirits. Even young warriors at the third layer of Life-and-Death Challenge would find themselves in a difficult situation if they were careless.
The core area was not that big, and the number of evil spirits was not as big as the inner area. However, they were very densely distributed. Along the way, Ye Chen saw a lot of people being killed by high rank evil spirits and teleported out of Life-and-Death Secret Realm. Those who were able to survive were all elites among elites.
Facing two high rank evil spirits, Ye Chen waved his hand, and the Broken Blood Sword turned into thirty-three sword shadows, shooting out like lightning.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! The two high rank evil spirits were riddled with holes even though they were several li away.
A life and death stone floated in the air.
"Life-and-Death Stone!"
Dozens of li away, two figures were flying in the sky. They sensed the life and death aura coming from the stone, and their eyes brightened.
"Kid, if you don't want to die, get lost!"
One of them yelled at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen ignored him completely. He stretched out his palm, and a powerful suction force appeared. The life and death stone fell into Ye Chen's hand with a swish.
"The third life and death stone!"
A smile appeared on Ye Chen's face as he fused the stone into his body.
"You are courting death!"
Both of them were young geniuses at the second layer of Life-and-Death Challenge, while Ye Chen was only at the first layer. They originally thought that Ye Chen would be afraid of their strength and give up on this life and death stone. Who would have thought that Ye Chen would not give them any face at all?
Boom!
Zhen Yuan burst out of the two's bodies, and their auras rushed toward Ye Chen, intending to launch a fierce attack.
Standing where he was without moving, Ye Chen looked at the two coldly.
Awoo!
Right at this moment, the ground loosened, and a huge wolf evil spirit broke out of the ground, blocking the two's path.
The Giant Wolf Evil Spirit was as large as a small mountain. The fur on its body was vivid and lifelike, and the savage aura it emitted was almost tangible, thick like ink. Compared to it, high-grade Evil Spirits were not even worth mentioning, and would definitely be killed in an instant.
"How can there be a peak level evil spirit here?"
The two were horrified, and their eyes were wide open.
"Run!"
One of them yelled and flew away, not daring to face the evil spirit.
However, the evil spirit's speed was much faster than theirs, and the distance between them was not too far. In a few blinks of an eye, it had caught up.
Puchi!
With a wave of its right claw, one of them was torn into two halves.
Its body collided, and the other turned into a blood mist.
The battle strength of the evil spirit was completely above the peak of the third layer of Life-and-Death Challenge. There was no doubt about it.
"This is a peak level evil spirit?"
Ye Chen sucked in a deep breath, his expression incomparably solemn.
After killing the two, the evil spirit turned its head and locked its cruel gaze on Ye Chen. Although it had no intelligence, it could feel that Ye Chen was different from others. Others would run away upon encountering such an existence, and no one would dare to stay. However, Ye Chen did so.
Swish!
The evil spirit bent its hind legs and shot over.
In Battle King's memories, there was information about peak level evil spirits. Although Battle King was astonishingly talented, when he first entered Life and Death Secret Realm, he had spent an entire day to kill a peak level evil spirit. From this, one could see how powerful and frightening peak level evil spirits were.
