"Let's get straight to the point. How did you know of my existence?"
Ye Chen asked the two elders directly.
"This …"
The elder below looked at the First Elder with a slightly awkward expression. He did not expect Ye Chen to be so direct and ask such a question.
"Ha, Fellow Ye, why are you so concerned about this matter? I invited you here …"
"Ha, did you invite me here?"
Even in the face of the First Elder, Ye Chen spoke coldly. This caused the two of them to feel somewhat awkward at the same time. They were also quite shocked. It was very rare for Ye Chen to have such courage at such a young age. He dared to be so imposing in front of them.
They had seen countless geniuses in their lives, but this was the first time they had seen someone like Ye Chen.
"Fellow Ye, what do you mean by that?" the First Elder asked.
"Fellow Ye, although you're a genius, you still have to respect the First Elder. He's the ruler of the Elders' Hall!"
The elder below said coldly.
"Ruler, I want to see the Venerable Elder. What does this have to do with the First Elder?"
"You!"
The First Elder's brows furrowed as he released his immortal power.
"Rumble!"
Suddenly, the air exploded and the heat hit Ye Chen.
"Oh?"
Ye Chen sneered slightly. A beam of divine power shot out from between his brows, instantly destroying the energy before him and countering the First Elder.
"Ah?!"
The First Elder trembled and raised both palms to resist the attack.
This exchange allowed the First Elder to sense the strength of the person in front of him. The Sword Qi released by the elder who had been chased away earlier had been easily neutralized. Now, it seemed to be the most reasonable explanation because the First Elder had already sensed that Ye Chen's strength was not inferior to his.
"With such strength at the Mahayana Stage, you have the right to be arrogant!"
"Cut the crap. Where's the Venerable Elder?"
"Ha, it's not that easy to meet the Venerable Elder!"
The First Elder's tone changed as if he wanted to pressure Ye Chen.
"What test do you have? Why would I be afraid? I'm not happy to beat around the bush. Be careful, or I'll tear your Flowing Cloud Sect apart! "
"Ah?!"
Ye Chen's arrogance surprised the two again. How could they have thought that a Mahayana kid would dare to speak like this in front of two high-level Itinerant Immortals? If this was known, where would their dignity be?
Fortunately, there were only the two of them here, so they felt slightly better.
"Alright, I'll bring you to see the Supreme Elder!"
"Go!"
Ye Chen had to figure out how they knew about his existence as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would be too passive.
Therefore, forceful methods were necessary!
The First Elder led Ye Chen through the main hall and into a secret passage.
Within this secret passage, there were all sorts of patterns.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, do you recognize these patterns?"
"Hmm?"
Ye Chen knew that this person wanted to test his formation cultivation base. He casually glanced at the wall and continued forward.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, could it be that you don't recognize these patterns?"
Seeing what Ye Chen was doing, the man knew that Ye Chen was clearly trying to avoid the topic and escape.
Otherwise, with just a glance, it would have been impossible for him to remember the exact appearance of those patterns. That was because while those patterns looked simple and ordinary, they were in fact the exquisite creation of the Supreme Elder. They were high-grade Immortal Runes that only a half-step True Immortal could inscribe.
"Ha, what do you want me to say about such a low-grade rune?"
"Ah?!"
The First Elder was dumbfounded on the spot. This was the work of the Venerable Elder whom he had always respected. In fact, it was the Venerable Elder's exquisite work of art. However, it had become a low-level rune in Ye Chen's eyes?
This made the First Elder very unhappy.
"Hmph, Fellow Daoist Ye, I understand that young people are arrogant, but don't be too arrogant. Otherwise, you'll be the one to suffer."
"Ha, First Elder, don't you believe what I said?"
"Believe? What do you want me to believe from the words of a madman? "
The First Elder revealed a very disdainful expression. He deliberately wanted to embarrass Ye Chen.
"Alright, in that case, I'll show you these patterns!"
"Sure!"
The First Elder stopped in his tracks and pointed to a very complicated pattern. Within this pattern, there were thousands of Immortal Runes. He thought that as long as Ye Chen could see ten of them, he would be impressive.
"That's it?"
"Don't underestimate these patterns. There are countless Immortal Runes contained within. Even I can only see three hundred of them. If you can see ten of them, I'll let you continue forward!"
"Ten? Hahaha! "
Ye Chen laughed maniacally. The majestic power shook the entire secret passageway corridor. Even the stone walls shook.
"This!"
The First Elder was shocked once again. This kind of majestic inner energy was too powerful.
However, so what if his foundation was strong? If he did not understand runes, he did not understand them.
"Please!"
"Ah!"
Ye Chen did not look at the pattern at all. Instead, he waved his hand and released Nether Divine Power.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Following that, he opened the Demon's Eye. The Nether Divine Power that he had released earlier wandered over the pattern. In the blink of an eye, the Nether Divine Power reflected and carried countless information into Ye Chen's Demon's Eye.
Just when the First Elder still did not know what was happening, Ye Chen had already analyzed all the rune characteristics of the pattern in front of him.
Thud, thud, thud!
Ye Chen walked forward.
"Sigh, Fellow Ye, you've lost the bet. Why are you so flustered and exasperated?"
Looking at Ye Chen moving forward quickly, he thought that he was going to go back on his words.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
At this moment, the Nether Divine Light suddenly appeared in front of the First Elder and evolved into a light screen.
On this Nether Divine Light screen, countless runes appeared. There were more than a thousand types. Among them, there were at least three thousand six hundred types of runes. They were like strange characters, engraved on the light screen, vivid and lifelike.
"Ah, this, this!"
Seeing this scene, the First Elder was completely shocked. The person before him was simply a god!
"How can he have such a profound formation cultivation base at such a young age? He can even analyze so many runes without looking. Is he still human?"
The First Elder felt ashamed of his inferiority. How would he dare to complain to Ye Chen?
Thud, thud, thud!
He hurriedly followed Ye Chen's footsteps and brought him to the end of the secret passage. There was a stone door here.
He chanted an incantation and emitted immortal power toward a rune on the side of the stone door. The rune flickered, and then the stone door slowly opened.
The two of them walked out of the stone door and found a different world.
"Fellow Ye, the Venerable Elder is just ahead."
"Alright!"
Ye Chen looked ahead and saw a vast expanse of whiteness. There was no sign of a person at all.
"That bunch of old ox-nosed daoists want to test this Emperor? What a joke!"
Ye Chen's patience had run out. He did not care about these clichés anymore and flew up.
"Fellow Ye, what are you doing?" Seeing Ye Chen's actions, the First Elder asked in shock.
However, Ye Chen did not respond. Subsequently, a divine sword appeared in his hand. It was the Heavenly Emperor Sword!
"Could it be …"
The First Elder did not dare to think any further!
