The Demon Tribe members could tell that Ye Chen did not seem to be lying. Most importantly, his cultivation base was "insufficient" to kill Li Xiong and the others. They could not continue to target Ye Chen because if they did so, it would seem like they were deliberately looking for excuses.
After all, Yuchi Fengyun and the others from the Human Clan did not come out either. This was consistent with what Ye Chen had said. Perhaps Ye Chen had entered another path alone and survived. Meanwhile, the elites of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan had died inside.
Of course, giving up like this was not the Demon Lord's character.
He walked forward and looked at Ye Chen coldly.
"Ye Chen, did you find some treasure? Otherwise, how could you come out?"
"Treasure? I'm lucky to come out alive. Where did the treasure come from? "
"What's the truth about the secret cave?"
"I only took a stroll in the Primal Chaos and returned from where I came from. As for what Yuchi Fengyun, Li Xiong and the others encountered, I really don't know. I think they really encountered a treasure. Otherwise, they wouldn't have died in there, right?
"D * mn it!"
The Demon Lord was furious and wanted to attack again but was blocked by Jiu Ling Huang.
"Demon Lord, Ye Chen was able to come out because of his own ability. Why are you so aggressive?" Jiu Ling Huang said.
"Old man, at least one of you humans came out. Our Demon Clan was completely annihilated. I don't believe this result. This kid must have done something."
"Ha, you're slandering me without evidence. I won't allow it!"
"You!"
The Sovereign of the Demon Realm gnashed his teeth in hatred. According to his plan, Li Xiong would never have failed. What had gone wrong?
He did not expect that it was Ye Chen who had killed everyone.
"Jiu Ling Huang, you've angered the Demon Clan. You humans will die!"
"Hahaha, ridiculous. Do you think I'm afraid of your threats?"
The two of them confronted each other. In the end, the humans and demons parted on bad terms.
"Rumble!"
The secret cave collapsed completely and turned into ruins.
"Let's go!"
Jiu Ling Huang led the humans and left.
On the side of the devil race, after losing Li Xiong and the other geniuses, they naturally wouldn't let the matter rest. They watched as the humans left and wanted to re-investigate the secret cave. However, they soon discovered that this was impossible. The secret cave had already been completely destroyed, and there were all sorts of dangerous energies within it. Wanting to re-investigate and even enter it was too difficult.
Looking at the ruins in front of him, the Devil Sovereign couldn't understand.
"Lord Sovereign, it's such a terrifying secret cave. We've studied it for hundreds of years before discovering the secret of the Gate of Death. It doesn't make sense that this kid could come out safely."
Someone suggested.
"Do I need you to tell me that? This brat must have obtained some sort of lucky chance, or else he wouldn't have been able to come out alive with that little bit of cultivation. Li Xiong must have failed, and then fought with Yuchi Fengyun and the others, dying together in the cave. What a pity. "
The Demonic Realm Overlord shook his head slightly. In the end, he accepted this reality. Of course, his hatred for Ye Chen rose sharply. He swore that he would make Ye Chen pay the price and then take away any treasure or great opportunity that Ye Chen had obtained.
The humans returned to the Spirit Realm's imperial palace.
Emperor Ling Huang met Ye Chen again.
"Ye Chen, you've worked hard this time."
The Spirit Emperor said with a smile as soon as they met.
"It's not hard at all. This secret cave is complicated and ever-changing. I don't even know how I got there. It's completely beyond my control."
Ye Chen replied.
Ling Huang's eyes were sharp as he observed Ye Chen's behavior and expression.
However, what kind of person was Ye Chen? He was the reincarnation of a Heavenly Emperor. This kind of behavior was a piece of cake for him. It was extremely difficult to find any flaws in Ye Chen's expression.
"You really didn't find anything?"
"Emperor Ling, don't you believe me? I really didn't find anything. "
"Ye Chen, I don't want any of your treasures. I just want the truth about this secret cave. I've been trapped in this Spirit Realm for too long, and my cultivation base has been unable to ascend. This is the most difficult thing for me. As long as you tell me the truth about the secret cave, I promise you that I'll definitely protect you to the end and prevent the Demon Clan from harming you."
"Demon Clan? Ha, I don't care about that! "
Ye Chen's sudden arrogance stunned Emperor Ling Huang.
"Ye Chen, you said that you didn't find anything in the secret cave, but the Demonic Realm Overlord will never believe you. They'll continue to target you. Cooperating with me is your only choice!"
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen felt a hint of threat. Emperor Ling wanted to rely on the Demonic Realm Overlord to pressure him and force him to submit.
"Hahaha, Emperor Ling, participating in this secret cave trip was completed by your Six Immortal Demon Techniques. It's fine if you don't reward me for completing the mission, but you're even questioning me. What's the meaning of this?"
Ye Chen's forceful retort surprised Emperor Ling Huang.
It was the first time Emperor Ling had encountered someone who dared to talk to him like this in this spirit mountain.
"Ye Chen, you have to be mindful of your status. I'm Emperor Ling!"
"So what if you're an emperor? Do I care?"
"You!"
Emperor Ling Huang's brows were sharp and his eyes were filled with killing intent. Ye Chen's arrogance had far exceeded his expectations and even exceeded his bottom line.
"There's no need to say anymore. Where are my friends?"
"Ha, they're in the residence that I've arranged. Very good!"
"Hmm?"
Ye Chen increasingly felt that this was a conspiracy. If anything happened to Ye Wushuang and the Patriarch, he swore to flatten the entire spirit mountain.
"Emperor Ling, I advise you not to blindly test my bottom line. Hand over the Patriarch of Hell and Ye Wushuang immediately. Otherwise, there's nothing to talk about."
"Ha, it's not difficult for me to hand them over, but you have to tell me the truth about the secret cave and give me a satisfactory answer."
"Emperor Ling, is this how people from the Spirit Realm do things?"
"Ye Chen, I've said it before. Know your place. I didn't save you from the Demonic Realm Overlord for nothing. You must know how to be grateful!"
Hearing this, Ye Chen sneered in his heart. Grateful? What kind of gratitude was that? Was imprisoning his friends also gratitude? The so-called rescue was just a matter of convenience. There was a purpose behind it.
"Alright, let me think about it!"
"No problem, but you only have one day."
With that, Emperor Ling called someone to bring Ye Chen back to his residence.
Ye Chen's so-called 'think about it' was just to buy himself time to cultivate the Eight Gates Divine Disc.
Emperor Ling's cultivation base was too strong, so it was extremely dangerous to deal with him. Ye Chen still had to surround him with people and use the Eight Gates Divine Disc to find an opportunity to leave the spirit mountain.
Returning to his residence, Ye Chen released a formation to isolate himself from the outside world. He wanted to be quiet in front of others, but inside, Ye Chen was already studying the power of the disc.
The Ancient God Power and the Divine Vein were connected. This was the key to Ye Chen's cultivation of the Divine Vein.
"Eight Gates of Inner Concealment — Divine Vein, appear!"
Ye Chen released the Eight Gates Divine Disc. The power of the Inner Concealment triggered the Divine Vein to appear. Countless lines were like stars in the sky, exquisite beyond compare!
