A disciple at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm was almost killed by the Subterranean Beast. In the face of Yang Chen's Soul-Shaker Art, there was no way he could hide anything. Yang Chen didn't even need to use his killing intent to say what Yang Chen wanted to know.
There were indeed many disciples of the Taitianmen here, but they were all wood and earth elementalists. There seemed to be nothing unusual. Almost all the people here were wood and earth elementalists. Naturally, when disciples came to the trial, it was very reasonable for the Taitianmen to send a few Golden Core Grandmasters to take care of them at any time. It was said that among these masters, there was an expert at the Nascent Soul Stage.
It seemed that everything was normal, but Yang Chen knew what was going on. Presumably, these low-level disciples didn't know about the big array.
As for Chu Heng, the Taitianmen didn't hide it. Chu Heng had attacked Yang Chen because he was on good terms with Li Qingchen of the Taitianmen, which led to him being expelled from the Chunyang Palace. Most of the Taitianmen disciples supported Chu Heng. Although the Taitianmen couldn't openly support Chu Heng, they could still take care of him in places where others couldn't see.
At least in the barren sand valley, Chu Heng lived a comfortable life. Chu Heng could go in and out of any supply point of the Taitianmen at any time, and he could get support. After a few years, Chu Heng almost knew all the disciples of the Taitianmen in the barren sand valley. If anything happened, these disciples of the Taitianmen would also inform Chu Heng.
Chunyang Palace sent a few Golden Core Grandmasters to the barren sand valley to investigate, but it was all because the disciples of the Taitianmen got the news in advance and reminded Chu Heng, which led to several Golden Core Grandmasters returning in failure. Chu Heng had been hiding very well in the barren sand valley, and with the help of the Taitianmen, he steadily improved his strength.
For the Taitianmen, secretly helping Chu Heng meant that they could ruin the reputation of Chunyang Palace and directly take revenge for them bowing their heads and apologizing. In turn, they could laugh at Chunyang Palace. It was a profitable business with little capital.
"Chu Heng has always been in Barren Sand Valley. Very good!" The smile on Yang Chen's face grew wider and wider. The originally arrogant guy at his feet was now lying on the ground like an idiot, unable to speak anymore.
Yang Chen stood up, gently waved his hand, and turned to leave. It opened its ferocious mouth and swallowed the young man on the ground into its stomach in one gulp.
This enormous figure was naturally the Subterranean Beast. It was now equivalent to the cultivation of a human Jiedan Supreme Master. Coupled with its huge size and strong body, even cultivators of the same level as it were not its opponent. Fortunately, the Subterranean Beast was gentle and did not take the initiative to attack cultivators. When Yang Chen landed on its back, it only took him one try to establish communication with the Subterranean Beast.
The Beast Taming Spell was indeed a magical power of the demon race. When Yang Chen did not intend to control the demon beast and only communicated with it with the intention of asking for information, he easily received feedback from the Subterranean Beast. Once the communication channel was established, the rest of the matter was much easier to handle.
Three guys who didn't know life or death bumped into him head-on. The Subterranean Beast was gentle and did not take the initiative to attack, but it did not mean that it did not have the power to attack. When Yang Chen asked for help, the Subterranean Beast did not hesitate at all. It immediately attacked and easily killed the three fellows.
The Qiankun Bag it carried with it was spat out and delivered to Yang Chen, but the Dharma treasures on those fellows were directly swallowed and refined by the Subterranean Beast. The three of them were earth cultivators to begin with, and to the Subterranean Beast, they were the best tonic. Of course, Yang Chen did not let it help for nothing. He gave it a thousand-year-old ginseng. Although it was said to be a thousand-year-old ginseng, it was close to two thousand years old. Even for a Golden Core Subterranean Beast, it was a rare treasure.
With such benefits, it was naturally easy for Yang Chen to know the distribution and direction of the surrounding spiritual power. Soon, a map that covered a radius of hundreds of kilometers appeared in Yang Chen's mind. The Subterranean Beast had been here for a long time, at least a thousand years. When it was young, it often patrolled its territory, so it was very familiar with the surrounding terrain. In addition, its cultivation was successful, so it could clearly distinguish the distribution of spiritual power in its surroundings with its eyes closed.
Such a detailed distribution of spiritual power immediately gave Yang Chen a basic understanding of the array hidden in the Desolate Valley. After all, this array relied on the natural terrain. This area was equivalent to a corner of the array. Yang Chen could already roughly determine the direction of the array and where its focus was.
He got along well with the Subterranean Beast. After asking the Subterranean Beast about its powerful neighbors, Yang Chen quickly waved goodbye and flew in another direction. As long as there were four or five more powerful demon beasts like the Subterranean Beast, Yang Chen would be able to completely outline the array. When that happened, the entire array would be unobstructed.
The three young talents of the Greatest Heaven Sect, in less than an hour, from the inside to the outside, from the skin to the bones, disappeared without a trace. The Subterranean Beast didn't even look at the three Qiankun Bags before tossing them to Yang Chen. It must have known that a large sect like this could use the Qiankun Bags to find the location of its disciples.
Yang Chen would never believe the rumor that this Subterranean Beast had a gentle temperament and never took the initiative to attack cultivators. Perhaps most of the time, the Subterranean Beast had a harmless expression, but to make such a judgment, it couldn't have just killed one or two cultivators. Presumably, many independent itinerant cultivators had gone missing in this place, but no one had investigated.
Yang Chen didn't care about the Qiankun Bags. He'd killed more than one or two Taitianmen. He could just toss them into his merit ring and there would be no repercussions.
After flying leisurely to the edge of the Subterranean Beast's territory, Yang Chen slowed down. According to the Subterranean Beast, its neighbor wasn't very friendly. Not only was it irascible, but it was also much stronger than it was. According to the Subterranean Beast's estimates, it might be able to fight against its neighbor if there were four or five of it.
This piqued Yang Chen's interest even more. With such strength, could it already be at the Nascent Soul realm? Of course, that wasn't how the demons were divided. They were only equivalent. If that was the case, wouldn't its territory be several times larger than the Subterranean Beast's? As long as he obtained a terrain here, he would be able to cover a few places that Yang Chen could run to.
Of course, this Viper demon beast wasn't easy to deal with. It was powerful, and if things didn't work out, Yang Chen would probably die on the spot. Therefore, Yang Chen had to be prepared in advance so that he wouldn't be at a loss when the time came.
