Chapter 827: Chapter 799: Didn’t Realize How Impressive It Was?

"So that’s how it is..."

Walking on the first layer of space within the Relic, Li Chen felt incredibly relaxed and at ease, no longer experiencing the sense of urgency that he had when he first entered.

With his current strength, even without using Red Moon, he could confront the Primordial Beasts at the Profound Level Peak in the second layer of space, not to mention the mere Ferocious Beasts in this first layer that were at most Mysterious Level Advanced Stage.

In the second layer of space, the strongest Primordial Beast was merely at the Profound Level Peak, as for the Earth Level Primordial Beasts, Li Chen had yet to encounter any.

However, according to the words of several grandfathers, it seems that there exist Primordial Beasts of Above Earth Level within the third layer of space.

And the final advice that the grandfathers gave to Li Chen was that it’s best not to traverse into the third layer of space until one reaches Earth Level.

Regarding the words of the grandfathers, Li Chen chose to believe them.

Although he was filled with curiosity about the Third Layer, Li Chen firmly stayed beside the small lake in the second layer, not crossing into the Third Layer even one step.

As for the Primordial Beasts in this First Layer, they were intentionally put inside.

The purpose was to guard this ’gate’ of the first layer.

It was because of the presence of this gate on the first layer that most people were stopped from entering.

However, with Li Chen’s current strength, the first layer naturally posed no danger to him whatsoever.

During his time in the second layer of space, Li Chen also heard an interesting tale.

It’s said that this first layer of space was once discovered by someone in a certain era. Because they didn’t delve into the second layer, the discoverer simply used the first layer as their own burial ground, interring themselves here.

And those buried with them seemed to include a general, and quite a number of people were sacrificed as well.

With the passage of time, the first layer seems to have undergone certain changes, with a large number of Primordial Beasts deep inside, while on the outskirts a group of mutated monsters formed.

These monsters were the Mutants that Li Chen encountered when he first entered the Relic.

"However, those Pills were inadvertently left behind by the master of the Relic. After swallowing those Pills, these people, ignorant about cultivation, were absorbing the yin energy near the corpses for a prolonged time, turning into that inhuman and ghostly appearance." Fourth Grandfather explained thusly.

At this point, Li Chen’s doubts about the Relic were finally resolved.

While casually driving away any Primordial Beasts that showed an intent to attack him, he strode towards the exit of the Relic.

In Li Chen’s hand, a piece of black stone appeared.

Unlike before, the black stone in Li Chen’s hand was the ’key’ to the Relic, and now, he doesn’t have to forcibly open the Relic’s grand entrance using that Formation anymore.

"However, those two stones still need to be put away. Otherwise, this ’gate’ would be as good as wide open to everyone." Li Chen pondered and strode towards the exit of the Relic.

...

On the streets of Linchuan, a group of people were strolling casually.

Leading at the front was a man of around forty years of age.

"It really is the outside world that’s the truly wonderful place." Looking at the streets left and right, a smile appeared on the man’s face: "Although the Spiritual Energy content is so low it’s practically nonexistent, it’s this outside world that’s truly a colorful world."

"Like this, there’s nothing of the sort in my Yu Family territory." Yu Zhe’s gaze suddenly locked onto a young girl not far away.

The girl was dressed in casual clothes, with a small badge hanging on her chest, appearing to be a student from a nearby university.

The youthful aura that she exuded instantly captivated Yu Zhe.

The Yu Family was a real Ancient Family, and its education continued using the most traditional Ancient Elder methods.

Though Yu Zhe was the heir to the Yu Family, he couldn’t act rashly – at least in public, he needed to display the virtue befitting his status so that others would respect him.

Otherwise, in addition to him, there were several younger brothers waiting in line.

"But now, I’m the head of the Yu Family." A sinister look appeared on Yu Zhe’s face as he strode towards the girl in front of him.

"Miss, when I first saw you just now, it was but a fleeting glimpse, yet I was stunned by your celestial beauty. How could such an Immortal like yourself be so exposed in public? I happen to know of a tea house not far from here. How about we go and enjoy a drink together?" Yu Zhe put on what he thought was a very handsome pose and smiled at the girl.

Upon hearing Yu Zhe’s words, the girl was also taken aback, then turned her head around and looked at Yu Zhe with a puzzled face, suddenly laughing.

"Uncle, your pick-up method is quite novel. Although I’m not interested in history, I’ve watched quite a few time-travel dramas. But your way of chatting up is too LOW. The retro style isn’t trendy right now, and I like sunny and handsome types. As for you, uncle, please forget about it!"

The girl said this, then waved her hand dismissively at Yu Zhe and walked to the side.

Yu Zhe watched the girl turn and walk away, his face immediately darkening.

Within the Barrier World of the Yu Family, simply by him beckoning, hordes of girls would proactively offer themselves, when had he ever been treated like this?

He took a step forward, directly blocking the girl’s path: "Miss, refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit is not a good habit, is it?"

Seeing Yu Zhe blocking her way again, the girl was also getting annoyed: "What’s this, if you can’t play the gallant, you play the bully? Quickly get out of my way, I know self-defense!"

With that, the girl actually posed in a standard Taekwondo starting position.

"Hey! What’s the matter with you, causing trouble on the street in broad daylight?" At this moment, a man came over, frowning and said, reaching out to grab Yu Zhe’s shoulder.

"Bang!!"

However, before the man’s hand could touch Yu Zhe, he was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into the wall beside them and immediately fell unconscious.

"Ah! Murder!" The people around, seeing this scene unfold, screamed and scattered in all directions.

At this moment, the girl also reacted, looking towards Yu Zhe with a terrified face.

Although she had learned taekwondo, she had not even had time to comprehend what had happened just now. The big man who was sent flying must have weighed at least around 230 or 240 pounds, how could he suddenly fly away like that?

At this time, Yu Zhe looked at the girl once again, revealing a sinister smile on his face: "Miss, I warned you, don’t refuse the toast only to drink the forfeit!"

"You... what do you want to do?!"

Finally realizing that the man in front of her was someone she could not contend with, the girl involuntarily took two steps back.

However, just after she took two steps back, she realized that several people stood behind her without knowing when they had appeared.

"Don’t... don’t come any closer, or I’ll call the police!"

"Call the police?" Yu Zhe revealed a cold smile: "The police, can they control me?"

"Creak—"

Just then, a passing sports car suddenly stopped nearby, and a head stuck out from the vehicle, shouting towards them: "Hey, what are you doing?"

"None of your business! Scram!" Yu Zhe didn’t speak, but one of his men directly shouted at the young man in the sports car.

"Wow, such a big tone. This matter, I’m going to intervene!" The young man was provoked to laughter by these words, and he directly opened the car door and got out.

"You... don’t come here, just run and call the police for me! They are very powerful!" Seeing the young man approaching, the girl was scared but still shouted to him.

"Really? How powerful?" The young man smiled as he took out a cigarette, lit it for himself, and chuckled.

"Very soon, you’ll find out!" Next to the young man, a figure suddenly appeared, and after speaking, swung a punch at him.

Seeing the punch, the girl was so frightened that she closed her eyes. Just now, she had seen the big man get knocked away, and now, another handsome young man came along, and she really couldn’t bear to watch a handsome guy get beaten and sent flying.

"Ah!!" A scream was heard.

"Huh? Why does the voice sound a bit off?" The girl looked up, only to see the man who had thrown the punch now knelt down, holding his own arm.

Li Chen looked at the man kneeling on the ground with some surprise: "I don’t see anything that impressive about you?"

"You..." The girl stared at Li Chen, somewhat dumbfounded.

"You’re called He Mengting, right?" Li Chen asked with a smile.

"How do you know?" He Mengting asked puzzledly.

"I’m Xiaoxiao’s brother-in-law. I’ve met you when accompanying her to school, though of course, you might not remember me." Li Chen said with a smile.

"Ah!" It seemed He Mengting also remembered: "I recall now! You’re Brother Li Chen, the swimming champion!"

Hearing this, Li Chen couldn’t help but give a wry smile. Was this a black mark on his history?

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

At this moment, there suddenly came the sound of inappropriate applause.

Yu Zhe looked at Li Chen with a smile on his face: "Sir, to be able to dispatch my man with a single blow, it seems you are quite strong. No wonder you dare to meddle."

"No, no, no!" Li Chen hurriedly waved his hand: "It’s not about strength, anyone would want to beat up scum like you when they see you."

Hearing Li Chen’s words, Yu Zhe’s face immediately darkened.

"Then, let’s see if you have the strength!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Zhe’s figure flashed, and he charged directly towards Li Chen.

"Bang!"

Li Chen raised his hand to block Yu Zhe’s punch, and at the same time, his palm chopped towards Yu Zhe’s neck.

Seeing the hand blade, Yu Zhe’s complexion changed, and he hurriedly raised his hand to block it, while kicking towards Li Chen’s abdomen.

"Thud!"

Li Chen’s hand blade was blocked, but Yu Zhe’s kick was also countered by Li Chen’s foot. Li Chen did a roll in the air and landed on the ground.

"Your strength is indeed very strong, sir. Let’s leave today’s matter at that, and perhaps we’ll meet again if fate allows!" After carefully assessing Li Chen, Yu Zhe actually snorted coldly and turned to leave.

And his men, hearing his words, also left the scene immediately.

"Interesting!" Watching Yu Zhe leave, Li Chen did not try to stop him, just smirked and whispered to himself.
