Chapter 712: Chapter 684: Discovery

Although Lin Yi didn’t know exactly what the "good stuff" An Qin was referring to was, intuition told him that it was indeed something valuable.

This much, Lin Yi could tell from the faint energy emanating from it.

The strength of these monsters couldn’t be considered very strong, but relative to others, they were indeed quite formidable; at the very least, even with the combined forces of Lin Yi’s Nether Army, it would be extremely difficult to resist even one of them.

However, Lin Yi was obviously not among those who would struggle.

With his current strength, dealing with these monsters that obviously had not reached Yellow Rank was as easy as lifting a feather.

Lin Yi’s strength was, indeed, very great, and before long, he had collected quite a few stones.

Similarly, An Qin, wielding Frost, had also gathered many.

"Chi!"

With a slash, An Qin killed the last monster, and the surroundings fell into silence once again.

"This place..." Lin Yi hesitated a moment, then looked at the bodies of these monsters.

"Let’s not worry about these things for now, let’s go inside," An Qin said.

"Okay!" Lin Yi gazed for a moment at the monsters now lying on the ground, nodded, and then strode into the relic once more.

Behind Lin Yi, several members of the Nether Army had also suffered some injuries in the battle just now. Lin Yi pondered for a moment before deciding to have all the injured retreat from the relic.

Looking at the pitch-black path ahead, Lin Yi gritted his teeth and stepped forward once again.

On the other hand, Lin Yi had already returned to the villa under the escort of the Nether Army.

"Hmm?"

Not long after returning to the villa, Wang Qianqian frowned, unable to hide the pain on her face.

Holding herself, Wang Qianqian silently sat down on the sofa.

For some reason, she had felt uncomfortable ever since she came back, but no matter what, she couldn’t find the cause. At first, she thought it was just an upset stomach, but as time passed, Wang Qianqian started to realize that the problem might not be so simple.

"Forget it, I’ll wait for him to come back before telling him," Wang Qianqian thought for a moment before making up her mind.

However, what Wang Qianqian didn’t notice was that, in the distance, a man was quietly spying on the villa with a telescope.

Seeing the pained expression on Wang Qianqian’s face, the man revealed a lewd smile, "Acting so high and mighty in front of me, this time, I want to see how you turn into a slut!"

"Heh heh heh..."

Chuckling, the man put down the telescope, turned his head, and drove away from the location.

...

"Bang!"

At this moment, Lin Yi was holding an ordinary-looking round bead in his hand. He had obtained this bead from the body of a monster he had just killed.

This monster was considerably more powerful than the group Lin Yi had encountered before. And the item obtained from its body was evidently more unique as well.

"What exactly is this?" Lin Yi couldn’t help turning his head to look at An Qin.

However, An Qin seemed to have no intention of answering him, still gazing fixedly ahead, without blinking.

As if to her, the items inside this relic were far more interesting than Lin Yi.

Indeed, that was the case.

In front of Li Chen, there appeared several strange creatures he had never seen before.

"They’ve become stronger!"

Gazing at this group of newly appeared monsters, Li Chen’s brow furrowed slightly; the strength of these creatures had increased considerably compared to the first batch.

Li Chen didn’t know why this was happening, but he understood that this relic now seemed different from the ones he had entered before.

He had come here before; within this relic, apart from those humanoid creatures that seemed to have degenerated, there was nothing else.

But these monsters, each with a different appearance, grew stronger the deeper he went.

However, what somewhat relieved Li Chen was that, so far, no monsters had appeared that were stronger than the Yellow Rank.

But Li Chen guessed that perhaps deeper inside, there would be such existences.

After all, that Seven-Colored Being that reached the Profound Level last time emerged from this relic.

"Hiss—"

When Li Chen spotted several monsters, the creatures also discovered Li Chen and his group, immediately baring their teeth and snarling, emitting unpleasant hissing sounds from their mouths.

"Up to now, these monsters appear to be unseen creatures, ancient ones, or have they lived in the relic for so long that they’ve mutated?"

Li Chen released his True Qi fully and immediately lunged at the monsters; his form was like a swift gust of wind, the creatures didn’t even have time to comprehend what was happening before they were each smashed into the ground by huge fists.

To have reached Entry-Level Grade and not to have reached it was to exist in two different worlds.

Although the strength of these monsters was not insignificant, they stood no chance against Li Chen, whose power had already broken through the Yellow Rank and even reached the Peak of Yellow Rank.

Obtaining a few more Raw Stones from inside the monsters, Li Chen looked at the stones, his eyes filled with doubt.

What sparked Li Chen’s curiosity was that these stones indeed had Energy pulsing within them, but it was unknown whether this energy could aid in cultivation.

If they could assist in cultivation, then as An Qin said, they were indeed treasures.

Since entering the relic, Li Chen had noticed something odd about An Qin; although her face remained as serene as ever, he couldn’t help but feel that she seemed... excited?

What in this relic could excite such a cold woman?

With this discovery, even Li Chen couldn’t help but become curious.

Having moved past that previous dark patch of road, this area had become much brighter, surrounded by plenty of Everlasting Lamps.

Looking at the oil in the lamps, Li Chen shook his head, wondering how many years that oil had been burning.

It seemed this relic was truly an ancient one.

"Keep searching!" With a wave of his hand towards the rear, a group of Nether Army Warriors immediately began to scour the area.

No matter the relic’s oddities, what he most wanted to do now was still to find Wang Qianqian; he had opened this relic for her, and finding Wang Qianqian was the most important thing for him.

"My Lord, we’ve found something!"

Soon enough, the Nether Army actually made a discovery.

Li Chen’s figure flashed, instantly moving to the side of the Nether Army Warrior who had spoken.

Taking the item handed over from the warrior, an irrepressible excitement appeared on Li Chen’s face.

"This is... Qianqian’s hairpin!"
