Chapter 3454: Chapter 3454: The Face of an Old Acquaintance!
"This place was definitely worth coming to." The Sky-covering Demon Emperor smiled faintly at this moment, although he hadn’t succeeded in killing Mo Xue Ming, the treasures gained made the trip worthwhile.
If Mo Xue Ming were here now and saw all the treasures he had accumulated over the years taken by Ye Chen, he’d probably be furious enough to spit blood.
At this moment, as Ye Chen and his two companions were preparing to leave, Ye Chen furrowed his brow when he saw a statue at the deepest part of a passage, wrapped in numerous chains, resembling the carvings seen on the teleportation formation outside.
The statue exhibited no signs of energy fluctuation, utterly still and seemingly no different from an ordinary statue, yet Ye Chen felt something was amiss and approached it.
"Is there something wrong with this statue?" the Sky-covering Demon Emperor asked, detecting Ye Chen’s odd behavior.
"Hmm." Ye Chen nodded slowly with a frown, then suddenly struck the statue, invoking the Destruction Divine Dao that instantly exploded upon the statue.
An ordinary statue would be completely destroyed, turning to nihility under such a blow, but the statue endured the assault of Destruction Divine Dao unscathed, instead emitting a faint shimmer.
This shimmer carried a rich Hongmeng aura, containing a trace of Source power, instantly making the statue extraordinary, its grand presence spreading out as if a Supreme Sovereign stood once again.
"This aura... is Source Soil!" The Sky-covering Demon Emperor exclaimed, shocked as he gazed at the statue.
"Source Soil?" Ye Chen’s heart leapt; this was Source Soil which explained its hardness. Source Soil is the most precious existence, embodying Source power, rivaling the value of Source Technique, allowing one to comprehend the power of Source.
"But it’s not genuine Source Soil, merely soil that has encountered Source Soil, hence its hardness," the Sky-covering Demon Emperor explained.
At these words, Ye Chen scrutinized the statue, indeed as the Sky-covering Demon Emperor said, the statue wasn’t made of Source Soil, merely emitting a hint of Source aura, yet its hardness is unparalleled, true Source Soil indeed unbreakable.
"This statue is peculiar; even if it merely touched Source Soil, this soil is considered a Supreme Treasure. Mo Xue Ming wouldn’t have carved a statue from such a treasure just to leave it here."
Ye Chen quickly discerned the anomaly, striking once more, roaring loudly as the entire treasure vault trembled, powerful Hongmeng Qi swept outward.
"Heavenly Dragon Eight Divine Sounds!"
Throughout the realm, Hongmeng Sound Symbols emerged, blasting against the statue with devastating force.
After a tremor, Ye Chen looked at the statue, his eyes widening; even the formidable technique like Heavenly Dragon Eight Divine Sounds couldn’t shatter the statue, only cracking it.
The harder the statue, the more curious Ye Chen was about its hidden secret, why Mo Xue Ming treated it so cautiously.
Immediately, Ye Chen wielded another sword, Eight Trigrams Divine Light exploded, violent aura swept across.
"Boom!"
The statue, already cracked, couldn’t withstand this sword blow, shattered with a crash, pieces crumbled onto the ground, dust billowing.
Ye Chen watched, his body shook, his robe flapping, violent spiritual energy swept to disperse the dust.
The next moment, Ye Chen’s pupils contracted, seeing a figure falling out as the statue shattered.
Mo Xue Ming crafted the statue with soil that had touched Source Soil to hide a person; Ye Chen instantly realized he might have uncovered a major secret!
The figure in the statue lay on the ground, trapped within its confines for countless years, yet hadn’t died, Ye Chen keenly sensed a faint shred of vitality.
This person was scarred all over, bloodied, and wrapped tightly in chains, emanating a rich destructive aura.
"Who is this person?" The Sky-covering Demon Emperor furrowed his brow at this moment.
"Awake." Ye Chen was equally curious, his Eight Trigrams Sky Pill Technique surged, endless brilliance flowed, a dense power of life flooded the treasure vault as if a deity mastering life had descended.
Ye Chen waved his hand, pouring the dense power of life into the person’s body.
The life force poured in, yet the mysterious person showed no response, Ye Chen furrowed his brow, noting the person’s perilous state, even the Eight Trigrams Sky Pill technique couldn’t wake him, seemingly needing to bring him back to the Demon Suppression Hall for more.
The Netherworld Palace Treasure Vault had already been ransacked by Ye Chen and his companions, now nothing left worth their attention, Ye Chen led the Sky-covering Demon Emperor and Little Gold away directly.
At the Demon Suppression Hall, Ye Chen withdrew his concealed appearance, restoring his true face, the trio descended from the sky, their aura from the battle overwhelming, hard to restrain.
Especially Ye Chen, forged an invincible presence in battle, now standing like a Supreme Sovereign in the Demon Suppression Hall, as if mastering the boundless universe, imposing and majestic.
Upon learning of Ye Chen’s return, Ye Lingtian and Xiao Bai hurried over.
"Hall Master, what are the results of this journey?" Ye Lingtian asked respectfully.
Hearing this, Ye Chen shook his head slightly, a bit helpless, the appearance of the Master of Inner Demon had caught him off guard, unable to kill Mo Xue Ming, a bit disappointing.
Afterward, Ye Chen informed Ye Lingtian of the events; upon hearing it, Ye Lingtian sighed, Mo Xue Ming indeed had Great Destiny, surviving what should have been certain death.
Simultaneously, Ye Lingtian was also curious about the mysterious person within the statue Ye Chen mentioned, hoping this person would wake soon.
In the Demon Suppression Hall, Ye Chen refined pills, brilliant hues appeared in the sky, dense medicinal aroma spread, inhaling it filled people with power, clearing their minds.
Later, Ye Chen placed the refined pill into the mysterious person’s mouth, seeing the pill transform into a stream infused with Hongmeng Qi, flowing into the body.
For a time, radiant lights glowed within the unconscious person’s body, illuminating outward, the mysterious person’s aura gradually stabilized.
Moments later, a weak cough sounded, then the person slowly stood up from the ground.
"Where am I..."
It was an elder, covered in countless injuries, pitiful and ragged clothing, eyes bewildered and hollow, but upon awakening, emanated a unique, timeless aura.
"Who are you..." The elder’s gaze gradually cleared, realizing others present, but upon seeing Ye Chen, suddenly widened his eyes, the once murky gaze burst with luster.
"Thud!"
The elder knelt heavily, respectfully calling out, "This humble one greets the Samsara Master!"
