The man in the pavilion looked to be in his twenties.
He was very young, but there seemed to be a hint of frivolity between his brows, making people subconsciously think that he was a playboy.
As Ye Chen sat down, the woman who led the way earlier walked into the distance with a lantern in her hand. The lantern in her hand seemed to be extraordinary as it shuttled through the air.
Soon, she returned and served Ye Chen a cup of tea. Then, she stood respectfully behind the young man without looking sideways.
The young man smiled lightly when he heard what Ye Chen said, "What if I say that the reason why I set up so many tricks is simply to meet you, Fellow Ye? Would you believe me?"
"It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not."
Ye Chen looked at him and said with a burning gaze, "Fellow, I believe you know why I'm here this time. How's my friend?"
He did not check the other party's cultivation base.
This was because he could tell from the Void Refinement woman behind him that this person was probably a top existence in Yin Xu.
The only one who could threaten him was probably the existence in the Demon God Forest that Yang Tian and the entire Yin Xu feared.
"Don't worry, fellow. They're safe and sound!"
The young man nodded and said, "Moreover, with Fellow Ye's decisive personality, if I hurt them in the slightest, it'll be difficult for us to reconcile today."
With that, he could not help but smile and say, "I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Chu Zhongtian."
"So it's Fellow Chu!" Ye Chen nodded lightly.
"The name Chu Zhongtian is too far away!"
Chu Zhongtian's gaze was filled with vicissitudes as if he was sighing, "It's so long ago that I can't remember when I mentioned it to anyone. However, that guy from the Demon God Forest called me the Path of Carnal Desires!"
"Path of Carnal Desires?"
Ye Chen's eyes flashed when he heard that, "You're walking the Path of Carnal Desires?"
There were 3,000 great paths and 800 unorthodox paths in the world of cultivation. Some people became saints by studying, while others became immortals by chopping trees day after day. They all had their own paths and cultivation paths.
These great paths were all about staying away from the mortal world, living in seclusion, away from the seven emotions and six desires, and the mortal world.
However, the Path of Man Desire was the exact opposite of this. The Path of Man Desire focused on getting close to the mortal world, the seven emotions and six desires, especially women.
However, the path of desire was too difficult. The slightest carelessness would cause one to be bewitched by external objects. Moreover, it was not tolerated by the world. Thus, after countless years, it was very difficult for a person to achieve great success in the path of desire.
It was hard to imagine that the person in front of him, who was dressed in a Daoist robe and looked like a Daoist expert, actually walked the path of human desire.
"Fellow Daoist, you also know of the Dao of Human Desires?"
Chu Zhongtian looked at him in surprise. His eyes flickered a few times, then he said, "That's right. I walk the path of human desires. To me, if cultivating to become an immortal requires one to have a clear heart and few desires, then I don't mind cultivating to become an immortal!"
"Outsiders say that Mad Southern Ye is a native of Earth and a desolate descendant of the Celestial Burial Planet. However, looking at it now, I beg to differ."
At this point, he took a good look at Ye Chen, "If I'm not mistaken, Fellow Ye has probably been to the Spirit Realm of the Colossal World before, right?"
Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat, but he looked at him calmly and said, "Could it be that Fellow Chu is from the Spirit Realm?"
His words tacitly confirmed the former's guess.
Chu Zhongtian smiled faintly, not surprised at all.
The woman named Ling Long beside him said indifferently, "The sect master guards the Spirit Realm's Human Desire Realm. He's one of the only eight Tribulation Stage almighties in the Spirit Realm!"
Tribulation Stage!
Ye Chen's eyes flashed, "I didn't expect Fellow Chu to have such a great background. However, it's unbelievable that someone of your status would sit down and talk to me so politely!"
In the Spirit Realm, an existence like the Tribulation Stage was practically the most powerful existence. Even though there was still the Mahayana Stage above the Tribulation Stage, the Mahayana Stage was not considered a stage. Instead, it was a transitional stage between immortals and the Tribulation Stage.
In the late stage of the Tribulation Stage, when everything was ready, one would take the initiative to sense the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation. Once one passed the Heavenly Tribulation, they would advance to the Mahayana Stage. This was the feedback of the Heavenly Dao. It was similar to giving cultivators time to settle their affairs.
After settling their affairs, the Mahayana Stage cultivator could release his aura and take the initiative to sense the immortal light. Then, he would step into the Immortal World through the Immortal Bridge.
Before this, Ye Chen knew that Chu Zhongtian had a powerful background and was not weak. However, he still did not expect the former to be a Tribulation Stage almighty in the Spirit Realm.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind as he thought to this point.
A mere Earth was able to attract a Tribulation Stage cultivator.
Secondly, since Chu Zhongtian was a Tribulation Stage almighty, then the one in the Demon God Forest must be one too. No wonder the entire Yin Xu was extremely afraid of the latter.
As if sensing his guess, Chu Zhongtian said calmly, "Fellow Ye, you're right. Qianqiu Wuhen is also from the Spirit Realm. However, he's a Tribulation Stage almighty from the Wood Spirit Clan.
"This person is a demon, but he imitates the human race to study poetry, so he's more reasonable."
"The one in the Heavenly Tomb?" Ye Chen frowned.
"The Heavenly Tomb?"
Chu Zhongtian's eyes flashed as he said fearfully, "I'm not sure about that person's background, but Qianqiu Wuhen and I rarely interact with him. It's because this person has a strange personality. He can even be said to be eccentric."
"This person came to the Yin Xu earlier than us. I don't know why he died, but he preserved his divinity, so he could only stay in the Heavenly Tomb."
"Right!"
He seemed to have thought of something and said to Ye Chen with a faint smile, "The master of the Desolate God's Tomb that you're going to attack tomorrow, Old Man Great Desolation, is also a Tribulation Stage almighty."
"Even him?" This time, Ye Chen was also shocked.
"That's right!"
Chu Zhongtian nodded slightly and suddenly sighed, "However, this old man was unlucky and completely died in the Yin Xu. It's not an exaggeration to say that his soul has been destroyed."
It was extremely difficult to cultivate to their level. Even though Old Man Great Desolation did not get along with them when he was alive, it was inevitable that they would feel sad after the former died.
Ye Chen was shocked, "How did he die?"
Even a Tribulation Stage powerhouse had died in the Yin Xu. How could he not be vigilant? Even though he had an indestructible body, he had to think for Yang Tian and the rest.
"You'll have to ask the toad you met in the Warsky Martial God's Tomb."
Chu Zhongtian smiled mysteriously, "Did that person tell you that it has two brothers in the Yin Xu?"
Ye Chen said in a deep voice, "That toad also came from the Spirit Realm?"
The first time he met the toad, when Ye Chen wanted to subdue it, the former did say that it had a big brother and a second brother.
"No!"
Chu Zhongtian shook his head and said, "This toad is a local divine beast of the Yin Xu, but it has an extraordinary background. Before it was born, it was in the Yin Xu Forbidden Area and obtained many benefits. It's the right thing to do for you to befriend it."
