"What lifeforms are these?" Ye Fan was greatly shocked.
The three lifeforms all had humanoid forms but were covered in silver scales. There were also bone spikes protruding from their backs, each of them over half a foot long. No matter how one looked at them, they didn't seem to be of the good sort.
However, the silvery light flashed, causing them to look extremely divine, they didn't seem like dead spirits at all. Each of them had a pair of silver wings that flickered with silver light. With a flap of their wings, they could tear apart the void.
"Primordial lifeforms? That shouldn't be the case, most of them should be in the Eastern Desolate Regions. This... looks extremely similar to the Flying God Yaksha. Legend has it that these are the reincarnations of ancient experts after they died. Each of them is so powerful that it would cause one to tremble in fear. "
Ye Fan's heart pounded violently. If this was really the case, these were three devils. It was hard to estimate their exact cultivation bases, but they were definitely not existences he could afford to antagonize.
However, things were different now. He had the heavenly tribulation on him. These types of evil spirits shouldn't even exist in this world. They feared the five-colored lightning strikes the most and were innately countered.
Ye Fan pressed forward. The Miraculous Marrow was too important to him. It contained law fragments that could allow him to comprehend the dao and break through. As long as he had enough, he would be able to break through unceasingly. It was a priceless treasure.
Holy light flashed as the three silver-colored lifeforms acted together. They opened their mouths and spat out silver flames, causing the surrounding stone walls to instantly evaporate into lava.
"So hot!"
Ye Fan was greatly shocked. Even first-level immortal-foundation experts would be turned into ashes if they came here. No divine energy or dao arts would be able to block it. Even ancient treasures would shatter from the heat.
"ROAR!"
A silver-colored lifeform lunged over. The aura it exuded was like a river of stars, causing the entire ancient cavern to tremble.
Ye Fan brandished his lightning, slashing it down. The heavenly tribulation was like a myriad of bolts of lightning, deafening the ears of everyone present. The tunnel ahead of him was reduced to dust.
Fear flashed in the eyes of this silver-colored lifeform as it retreated unceasingly. The heavenly tribulation was its nemesis. The Ancient Fiendcorpse had transformed into the Flying God Yaksha, it couldn't be allowed to exist in this world because its life should have ended long ago.
"ROAR!"
The other two silver creatures shouted loudly like muffled thunder, shaking up the underground world until it trembled intensely. One could well imagine how powerful they were.
Ye Fan broke out in a cold sweat. He was snatching food from the tiger's mouth. The Flying Divine Yaksha didn't back down, making his heart pound. This type of creature's true strength was terrifying. If he delayed any longer, the Heavenly Tribulation would vanish, and that would be bad. Thinking of this, he charged forward with boundless lightning.
"Roar …"
In the end, the three Flying Heavenly Divine Yakshas cried out loudly, extremely alarmed and furious. Heavenly tribulation was approaching, making them instinctively shiver in fear, inwardly alarmed.
Even though they were extremely unwilling, they didn't have any other choice. Once they triggered the lightning tribulation, they would definitely be turned to ashes. They weren't allowed to defy the heavens and live two lives.
This world had its own rules. Once one died, even if one's corpse was able to defy the heavens and come back to life, it was destined to be obliterated. Life outside of the rules was not allowed to appear.
The three terrifying creatures carried anger and resentment. In the end, they fled, not daring to touch the lightning.
"These creatures look pure and holy, but they specialize in sucking the yang energy of humans. If they escape, I'm afraid it will be a great disaster. Unfortunately, I can't exterminate them." The Heavenly Tribulation was about to end, so Ye Fan didn't dare to chase after them. He could only stop here.
Whoosh!
There was still a great distance between them. He took out the Myriad Energy Cauldron and collected the thirty-six drops of Precious Marrow. He didn't dare to approach, fearing that the lightning would destroy them.
"There are thirty-six drops of rare Precious Marrow. With them, I can sit at the four corners of the world and undergo another transformation!"
Ye Fan's heart was stirred. The ancestral root of the world was born beneath the great earth of the Central Continent. The divine liquid that was born from it was of immeasurable value to him.
These drops didn't mix with each other. Every drop was like a small night pearl, releasing divine splendor and flowing with extraordinary splendor. One could vaguely see a small dragon within, gently trembling. All of them were a faint golden color.
"This is a spiritual object. A single drop is worth hundreds of thousands of kilograms of Origin Source!"
Of course, this was the most conservative estimate. If it was truly put up for auction, this could only be considered a base price. Only heaven knew how high it would go.
Inside the Marrow Pond, there was a dense mist of light. Draconic energy continuously seeped out. This was the entrance of an ancestral root, and the Dragon Marrow was born from its countless years of nurturing.
"That's not right. It's not just an entrance. This is a Dragon Pond!"
Dragon Marrow was rarely seen in the mortal world. It could only be encountered and not sought. There were even more precious Divine Marrow, but it was hard to find even after thousands of generations. Legend had it that it had already developed intelligence and turned into a living creature. It was comparable to an immortal medicine.
Ye Fan was shocked. When he found out about the importance of Dragon Marrow, he had spent a great deal of effort to collect many books to understand it in detail. The top-grade Dragon Vein Ancestral Root would sometimes give birth to inconceivable immortal treasures.
First of all, a Dragon Pond had to be evolved before a divine object with life could be born inside. This one square meter pond in front of him was definitely a Dragon Pond because there were dragon scale-like patterns on its inner walls.
This was the most obvious characteristic, and it was the symbol of a Dragon Pond. Patches of green scales flickered with brilliance, but there were no fluctuations of life.
"In the distant past, a Fantasy Level Divine Marrow was born here …"
He quickly understood everything. No wonder there were human skeletons here. A great battle had happened here in the past, and the immortal treasures had been plucked away. Only the Dragon Pond remained, and after the passage of countless years, it had produced several dozen drops of Dragon Marrow.
"It seems like the three Flying Divine Yakshas were the terrifying experts who had fallen in that era!"
Ye Fan sighed softly and left the underground world. In the past, there must have been a world-shocking battle here. He didn't know what kind of person obtained the Divine Marrow, but it was too long ago. Everything had been buried in history.
He came to the surface and stomped on a rocky ground, submerging this place. Perhaps after thousands of generations, there would still be rare treasures born here. After all, there was an ancestral root here.
At this time, the lightning weakened. The last bolt of lightning disappeared with a flash, and the heavenly tribulation completely disappeared.
Ye Fan didn't dare to stay for long. He turned into a stream of light and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
A few minutes later, a realm gate appeared in the sky. It silently opened, and more than ten figures rushed out. Their powerful divine senses swept out in all directions.
"Divine Diviner's disciple has accurately deduced the location. It's right here!"
The people from the Yin-Yang Sect and Xiao Clan appeared, their killing intent soaring. There were four of them, and the others were all first-layer immortal-foundation experts.
"He's undergoing his tribulation here!"
This was extremely bad news. It had only been a few months since the last time and Ye Fan broke through again. His speed was so fast that it was terrifying, causing their expressions to change.
"If this continues on, he would reach the immortal-foundation in just a few years …"
They were all shocked, they didn't expect Ye Fan to be so demon-level. His rate of improvement was simply too fast, and he wasn't much weaker than the Sovereign Emperor. In the future, he would surely catch up and become another 'Northern Emperor Soaring'.
Even further away in the sky, a golden figure and a silver figure stood side by side. These were two powerful primordial existences, the light in their eyes flickering.
"He escaped again. Master told us to take his head. It's already been three months and we still can't find his traces."
Not long after, Ye Fan returned to the small Daoist temple on the short mountain. He cultivated here for another half a month, completely stabilizing his foundation.
During dusk, a red whirlwind gusted by as a few more scenes appeared on the mountain. Ye Fan didn't care too much about it. This old sage was too transcendent, he didn't leave anything behind.
He felt that no matter what, it was impossible for the other party to recite any scriptures. There was no point in paying too much attention to it.
"Wait, that's …"
Suddenly, he was shocked. He saw a young man below the ancient pine tree. This young man was clad in blue, exuding an aura of transcendence. His entire person was like a transcendent immortal, standing on the short mountain, one with the heavens and earth.
"Hua Yunfei!"
The Ruthless Immortal Emperor had left behind a portion of the Heaven Devouring Devil Art. Even after so many years, it was still a taboo. No matter who obtained it, they would definitely be hunted down by the entire world.
Back then, Hua Yunfei had hidden himself very deeply and was accidentally discovered by Ye Fan. Only then did he reveal himself to the world. However, after the battle two years ago, he vanished completely, never to be found again.
"He actually came to the Middle Continent and appeared here before!"
Ye Fan cried out in alarm. This was the magnetic mountain replaying the past. Hua Yunfei had arrived here before him, so he definitely knew about the Cai Clan's ninth secret.
Furthermore, some of the things left behind by the old sage were also taken away by him. The ancient sages were extremely powerful. Anything they refined was a supreme treasure.
"Oh no …"
Ye Fan didn't find anything here and thought that the old sage didn't leave anything behind. Now, it seemed that the situation had changed. It was very likely that Hua Yunfei had obtained it.
"Where is the Cai Clan?" Under the ancient tree, Hua Yunfei muttered to himself as he faced the west.
After hearing this, Ye Fan heaved a sigh of relief. The other party didn't obtain the ninth secret here. However, his heart immediately sank. Hua Yunfei had arrived earlier than him, possibly two years earlier. It was hard to say if he had found the Cai Clan during this period of time.
"He had such a great fortune and obtained the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art. Now, he might even be able to obtain the ninth secret."
Ye Fan frowned. It had already been three years. He didn't know how much this terrifying opponent had grown. He couldn't use common sense to deduce this, because he could devour the origin of others!
Once he was unrestrained, an invincible demonic master would quickly grow and no one would be able to stop him.
"I need to cultivate while searching for the Cai Clan. If he gets there before me, that would be bad. Things are not looking good!"
The Art of Ten Thousand Transformations could bloom flowers with a single thought and rule over the world. With the help of the ninth secret, Hua Yunfei could devour the origin of others and accumulate it to a certain extent. There would really come a day when he would be invincible under the heavens.
Ye Fan counted the days. It was almost four months. It was time to go see Pang Bo and discuss things with him. He wanted to see if he could borrow the help of the Qishi Manor to find the Cai Clan.
Two days later, Ye Fan once again arrived at the Qishi Manor. Purple clouds rose and the cliffs were magnificent. Spirit springs gurgled and the fragrance of ancient medicine wafted through the air. Tens of thousands of dragons soared into the sky. This was a place that connected the heavens and the earth.
According to the agreed time and place, he quietly waited in a mountain range. Not long after, Pang Bo appeared.
"You broke through!" The two of them said at almost the same time and then burst into laughter.
He sat cross-legged on the coffin board of the Dao Comprehension Ancient Tea Tree and refined the dragon marrow. With the Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves in his mouth, he could be said to have a godly speed. Even Pang Bo didn't dare to believe it.
Ye Fan sealed thirty-six sparkling drops of the precious marrow in three white jade bottles and passed them to him. "We need to quickly increase our strength."
"So much dragon marrow!" Pang Bo was shocked and refused to accept.
"No need to decline. I can obtain it in the Saint Master level auction. As long as I have enough divine source, it won't be a problem. In addition, there are many ancestral dragon veins under the Central Prefecture. In the future, I will go underground to search for them. There won't be a lack of them. Maybe I can find the Dream Divine Marrow. "
Pang Bo thought of something and said, "The second beauty of the Central Prefecture, Princess Yue Ling of the Jiuli God Dynasty. She is said to have a beauty that captivates even the birds and beasts. Not long ago, she visited a Geomaster. They seemed to have discovered a super ancestral vein."
Geomasters were eccentric people who studied the mountains, rivers, and veins of the earth. If one wanted to enter the underground dragon vein to search for rare marrow, they could not do without such powerful people.
Ye Fan nodded and said, "I also heard that it is an ancient mine. It might contain the Dream Divine Marrow and is guarded by a powerful being. Rumor has it that three powerhouses have fallen there and countless other experts have died. After a period of time, when I am free, I will come down and take a look. "
Xiao Chen was very confident in the Origin Heavenly Book. The so-called Geomaster Observing Technique was very similar to the Earth Observing Technique that he had learned. The two could be said to be interlinked.
Furthermore, he had heard rumors that one of the five Yuan Taoist Masters of the Eastern Wasteland had encountered an inauspicious event in his later years. He had traveled through the void and arrived in the Central Prefecture. Perhaps he could find some clues about him in this land and learn whether he had escaped his fate in the end.
"You must be careful. The beings guarding the ancestral roots are all inconceivable. They are even more terrifying than the Immemorial Lifeforms," Pang Bo reminded him.
Ye Fan nodded. Then, he began to talk about his recent experiences. He asked Pang Bo to help him gather information on the Cai Clan in the Unique Scholar Residence to see if there were any clues.
The Unique Scholar Residence had an ancient inheritance. It possessed countless books and records about the origins of the various sects in the world. It was very likely that they would be able to find the whereabouts of the Nine Secrets.
"Hua Yunfei has appeared again … When the time comes, I will go with you to kill him!" Pang Bo nodded.
"I hope he did not obtain the Nine Secrets. Otherwise, it will be very bad," Ye Fan said.
"Oh, right …" Pang Bo frowned and began to talk about the matter of Bi Huo. Li Heishui had been severely injured and almost died.
"What?" Ye Fan was furious. Li Heishui had been very kind to him. Back when they were gambling on stones in the Divine City, he had accompanied him and helped him greatly.
Pang Bo said, "I wanted to kill those people, but Li Heishui and the others wouldn't let me. They were afraid that I would be in danger if I was exposed in the Unique Scholar Residence."
The Unique Scholar Residence had Wang Teng overseeing it. He suppressed everyone in the younger generation and made it hard for them to breathe. If Pang Bo knew about the relationship between Ye Fan and Pang Bo, he would definitely be in big trouble.
"That's right. Don't be impulsive. I still hope that you can endure and find the ancient starry sky path to the outer realm. Just leave it to me."
"Li Heishui was seriously injured and only recovered after a month. Jiang Huairen and the others were also injured. I felt very suffocated and couldn't help but attack a few times." Pang Bo pounded his fist.
"Who else attacked? I'll kill them one by one!" Ye Fan's tone was firm and full of killing intent.
"Who else could it be? The saintess of the Yin Yang Sect attracted eight or nine people. There's also Yan Yunluan. They attacked Li Heishui and the others together and injured them."
"They're tired of living. I'll wait outside the Unique Scholar Residence for them to come out. None of them will live!" Ye Fan knew that these people were definitely targeting him. They must have found out about his relationship with them.
"Many of Li Heishui's bones were broken. He can only walk now." Pang Bo said hatefully.
"Okay, I'll wait for them to come out. You can go back now and help me collect information," said Ye Fan.
Not long after, Ye Fan arrived outside the Unique Scholar Residence. He waited in front of the mountain and muttered to himself, "I'll kill one person if they come out. I'll kill a pair if they come out!"
He held a scroll in his hand. There were a total of eleven people on it. They had all attacked Li Heishui and almost crippled him.
