Chapter 317: Chapter 294: The Indestructible Body Conceals an Opportunity!_2 Chapter 317: Chapter 294: The Indestructible Body Conceals an Opportunity!_2 Immediately, he threw a punch.

His fist, wrapped in Xuan Yin Gang Qi, collided with the black fire snake, creating a massive booming sound. The powerful aftermath made both of them unconsciously retreat.

The nearby black palace shook violently, dust rising all around.

After one strike, there was no clear winner.

Although it was just a test, the strength of both sides was almost clear. The woman in the black robe looked at Chen Yuan for the first time with some solemnity; she had originally not taken his Reach Profound Middle Stage cultivation seriously.

Such martial artists, she had already killed several, but his talents and identity made him somewhat noteworthy to her, albeit only slightly.

A Patrol Envoy of the court was not worth her concern.

But the strong Qi and Blood Power he exhibited just now had significantly changed her opinion; she had seen others who could unleash such power with their physical bodies alone,

but such people were mostly Dan Realm Masters, and there were only a few in the Reach Profound Realm.

Now, Chen Yuan had to be added to that list!

Reach Profound Middle Stage cultivation, and his strike was not weaker than hers, truly extraordinary. Although she had only used fifty percent of her power, it was clear Chen Yuan hadn’t used his full strength either.

Chen Yuan’s expression remained quite calm. It was normal for someone with his opponent’s cultivation to unleash such power. It was just the black flames that made him wary.

When the two attacks had dissipated, he clearly saw that the black flames lasted longer. If they landed on his body…

They would probably become as troublesome as maggots in one’s bones.

“Demon Blade, truly extraordinary…” the woman in the black robe did not continue to attack.

Chen Yuan responded, “You are also quite extraordinary.”

“You may leave. There are no treasures in this palace, as you’ve also heard. Even if there were treasures, they would have been taken long ago. I am here only to observe if there are any necessary connections between this palace and the Secret Realm,”

the woman in the black robe said indifferently.

“What if I don’t leave?” Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow, never one to be intimidated by threats.

“If you don’t leave, you and I will only fight, and you are certainly no match for me. This remains true even if you don’t believe it. Seeing the unusual aura around you, it must be that you’ve just made a breakthrough in Xuanyuan, right?

It’s best to stabilize your cultivation now. As far as I know, your opponents are probably Gu Hao of the Feiyu Sword and Monk Jingxin from the Bright Temple,

and they’ve already joined forces. If we make too much noise, they’re likely to come. Then, the three of us against you alone, no matter how capable you are, you won’t escape.”

Her tone was very neutral, as if talking about a trivial matter unrelated to her.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Yuan also knew that this woman was right. Facing her alone was already quite challenging; if Gu Hao and Jingxin attacked, escaping would be difficult.

But he had to search the palace first. If there was nothing imperishable, then he would leave; if there was, he couldn’t retreat even if it meant fighting.

“May I ask your name?”

Although he asked, there was something off in his heart. Whether it was that hunchbacked old man or this woman in front of him, everyone seemed to know him, yet he didn’t know them.

This cost him some initiative.

“It would be best for Patrol Envoy Chen not to know that, otherwise, I would really have to act,” she said.

“I see, may I know if you belong to a faction of the Demon Dao?” With her saying this, Chen Yuan knew enough. Unwilling to reveal her name and wrapped in a black robe, she most likely belonged to the Demon Dao.

“Patrol Envoy Chen can ponder it on your way back later; for now… it’s better to leave as soon as possible,” the woman in the black robe was unmoved.

After pondering on the spot for a moment, Chen Yuan raised his head to look directly at her and said:

“I will leave, but I need to take a loop inside this palace first.”

“Why?” the woman in the black robe asked, perplexed.

“That is a secret, it’s better not to ask. If you don’t allow it, then I can only fight a desperate battle. However, you said earlier that I’m no match for you,

but please, don’t be so quick to conclude; remember one thing, everything is possible!”

He looked at her with a smile that was not quite a smile.

Black Robe Woman, “Is it necessary to see?”

“It’s necessary!” Chen Yuan firmly responded.

“Then you may go once through, but I must follow…” After a moment of thought, the Black Robe Woman realized that with someone like Chen Yuan saying this, she would definitely have to fight if she refused.

She wasn’t afraid to confront him, but she hadn’t finished her own tasks yet, and alarming too many people could likely ruin her efforts, which was why she insisted Chen Yuan leave.

“If you wish to follow, then follow,” Chen Yuan nodded, then cautiously walked past her and entered the palace within.

The inside was very spacious, the main hall alone was a hundred meters in size, and the floor still had some bones, while the surrounding walls bore marks of swords and knives.

The Black Robe Woman kept a watchful eye on Chen Yuan from more than ten meters away.

Unfortunately, she was behind him and couldn’t see the flickering blue light in Chen Yuan’s eyes.

After searching the entire hall and finding nothing unusual, Chen Yuan directly entered the left corridor; the rooms there were many but mostly empty.

The ground was littered with broken porcelain vase shards, torn papers, and a Jade Scroll, suggesting that the place had contained valuable items during previous visits.

However, the struggle had left the place in complete disarray.

As more and more people entered the Secret Realm, they thoroughly scavenged the area.

Chen Yuan carefully searched room by room, quickly moving to the next place if nothing unusual was found, it took him fifteen minutes to thoroughly search the left side.

It must be said that the place was indeed vast, stretching at least a kilometer, perhaps previously belonging to a Sect power, with this being the main hall.

After searching the left side, he then moved to the right; when he entered, the Black Robe Woman’s gaze tensed slightly, somewhat suspiciously continuing to follow him.

The style on the right side differed from the left; the rooms varied, some as narrow as corridors, others as large as the outer hall.

Continuing on, the end grew closer, and Chen Yuan’s steps slowed, finally stopping in front of a wall that was as smooth as a mirror,

There was no path ahead!

The Black Robe Woman behind him glanced at the wall and said indifferently:

“It seems that the item you are seeking is not here, Patrol Envoy Chen Yuan, as mentioned earlier, you should leave immediately.”

Chen Yuan did not immediately reply to her, under his Heavenly Eye Technique, on the smooth white wall before him, he finally found what he was looking for.

Blue light filled his eyes, and the stone wall in front seemed to change, emitting faint blue rays.

“I’ve found what I was looking for, your Excellency, forgive me, but I cannot leave. As for you… it’s best you leave now, otherwise, I will have no choice but to resort to harsh measures.”

Chen Yuan’s words carried a hint of a killing intent!

The Black Robe Woman looked deeply at Chen Yuan, realizing at that moment that his purpose likely matched her own, puzzled as to how he knew about it.

She had expended a great deal of effort to learn of this matter.

“It seems, Patrol Envoy Chen, that you also came for the legacy of Daoist Huayuan and Monk Jingxin.”

Her words stirred turmoil in Chen Yuan’s heart; he slowly turned and faced her directly, this was the first time he had heard the names of those two powerful figures.

Daoist Huayuan… Monk Jingxin.

Primordial Void Secret Realm!

“How did you come to know this?” Chen Yuan’s expression darkened.

“Let’s just say it wasn’t like how you did,” the Black Robe Woman took a deep breath and said lightly:

“I had planned to spare your life, but that seems impossible now. Even at the risk of being discovered, today I must send Patrol Envoy Chen Yuan to his death.”

Chen Yuan smirked, “That’s precisely what I was about to say.”

Immediately, both figures retreated, increasing their distance between each other.
