Chapter 1148: Chapter 1088: Assembly

Of course, although Ye Chen had many powerful Ancient Treasures on him and possessed many formidable means, he didn’t allow a trace of arrogance to enter his heart.

After all, these Ancient Treasures are external objects.

Just like the Life-saving Scroll, no matter how they can kill Overlord Level Demons or handle threats at the Cosmic Emperor level, their energy is finite and doesn’t belong to Ye Chen.

Once used, they diminish.

Once depleted, they will be completely expended.

These can only be used as life-saving trump cards in critical moments.

What Ye Chen could truly rely on has always been his own Combat Power!

Ye Chen had never forgotten his purpose for coming to the Primal Beginning Universe; he wanted to break through to the Sovereign level or even the Divine Master level within it. Currently, he’s just at the level of a Heavenly Divine Venerable, still so far to go!

Even though Ye Chen had made a significant breakthrough in Combat Power over the past few months, there was still a long way to go!

He must continue to push forward!

Only by truly elevating his Realm to an extremely high level and raising his various Cultivation Techniques to the utmost heights can he face any threat fearlessly!

After slaying seventy to eighty Zang Meng Beasts, Ye Chen and Qianli Youyou continued towards the center of the Thirteenth Chaos Zone.

Soon, the two stopped.

This time, it wasn’t because they encountered a threat from Demons again, but rather they finally discovered something precious in this Great Hanging Forest!

"Chaos Gold Divine Mushroom!"

Ye Chen saw ahead in the mountain forest, on a patch of black soil, where three clusters of divine fungi were growing, each radiating a golden color with roots glistening like rubies.

By their appearance, they were precisely the rare Treasure mentioned on the map issued by Lord Emperor Xuan in the Thirteenth Chaos Zone—Chaos Gold Divine Mushroom.

Each cluster of Chaos Gold Divine Mushroom can be exchanged for a staggering twenty million Bluegold Points.

To know, the three Black Extreme Ghost Flowers Ye Chen obtained in the Chaos Ghost Mist of the outer regions could only be exchanged for nine hundred thousand Bluegold Points combined, which was already an astronomical reward for Ye Chen.

Now, in front of him were even more precious Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms, altogether three clusters, totaling an exchange of sixty million Bluegold Points. How could Ye Chen not be overjoyed?

Sixty million Bluegold Points, according to Bluegold City’s exchange rules, were enough to obtain many extraordinarily valuable Divine Weapons, Cultivation Techniques, Divine Pills, and Divine Medicine!

When Ye Chen discovered the Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms and called out, Qianli Youyou followed his gaze and saw them too.

Qianli Youyou was equally pleasantly surprised.

"Chaos Gold Divine Mushroom, it really is Chaos Gold Divine Mushroom!"

"Each cluster can be exchanged for twenty million Bluegold Points! Ye Chen, congratulations!"

These three clusters of Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms were discovered by Ye Chen, and Qianli Youyou had no intention of competing with him.

Besides, he couldn’t compete even if he wanted to.

Ye Chen had saved him, and Qianli Youyou had no intention of vying for what was his.

In fact, Qianli Youyou was worried Ye Chen hadn’t noticed the map’s warning and kindly reminded him: "Ye Chen, don’t pick those Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms yet. According to the map, such Treasures are guarded by Demons, possibly very formidable ones. It hasn’t shown up yet, so we shouldn’t act rashly."

Ye Chen nodded.

Upon discovering the three clusters of Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms, Ye Chen had already used his Divine Sense to scout the area.

Qianli Youyou noticed the map’s warning about the presence of guard Demons near the Chaos Gold Divine Mushroom, and Ye Chen had also noted this.

"Where are those guard Demons hiding?"

Despite the Divine Sense scanning the surroundings, finding no abnormal situations puzzled Ye Chen.

While Ye Chen and Qianli Youyou were cautiously on guard, suddenly, from below the ground where they stood, a Killing Force erupted.

In an instant, the terrifying Killing Force swept towards Ye Chen and Qianli Youyou.

The guard Demon was hidden underground!

In the underground of the Great Hanging Forest, there was a mysterious obstructive force that neither Ye Chen nor Qianli Youyou could penetrate.

Under such circumstances, if someone else were attacked by the instantaneous Killing Force, they would likely be killed in a moment.

But Ye Chen was no ordinary person.

As the Killing Force swept in, the seven Copper Coins on Ye Chen’s body instantly responded, shattering the Killing Force with even greater speed, followed by a flash of Divine Light, disappearing thereafter.

Simultaneously, Ye Chen pulled Qianli Youyou as they soared into the sky.

As Ye Chen and Qianli Youyou leapt upward, evading the Killing Force,

the disappearing seven Copper Coins had already entered the ground below, reaching the site of the ambush.

Squeak!

In a flash, the seven Copper Coins locked onto the guard Demon, pulling it out from the ground.

The guard Demon screeched sharply but couldn’t break free from the binding of the seven Copper Coins.

Ye Chen looked towards this Demon and saw that it was a red, rat-like Demon.

"Black Spirit Rat!"

Recalling its appearance, Ye Chen’s mind flashed with the descriptions of various Demons from the Thirteenth Chaos Zone on the map, identifying this creature in an instant.

The Black Spirit Rat Demon, an exceedingly troublesome Demon in the Thirteenth Chaos Zone.

Known for its ability to burrow through the ground, extreme lightning speed, toxic gas, and sharp claws, it is a gregarious animal and, once it acts as a group, poses a threat to many Masters.

If it weren’t for the Copper Coin Ancient Treasure on Ye Chen’s body being extremely fast and having demon-locking Divine Might, he might not have caught this Black Spirit Rat.

After discovering that the guardian demon was the Black Spirit Rat and capturing it, Ye Chen did not relax at all. His gaze flickered, and he looked again towards the ground below.

The Black Spirit Rat is a gregarious animal and generally acts in groups. Ye Chen does not believe there is only this one Black Spirit Rat here.

Indeed.

As soon as Ye Chen looked down, a chilling sound came from the more distant area.

Then, Ye Chen and Qianli Youyou saw that as many as a hundred Black Spirit Rats emerged from various places around, their eyes black as the void, all staring at Ye Chen and Qianli Youyou, as if they intended to completely devour them!

Squeak! Squeak!

Once these hundred Black Spirit Rats emerged from the ground, they rushed towards Ye Chen and Qianli Youyou with incredible speed among chaotic squeals.

Seeing this situation, Ye Chen pinched a spell with his hand.

The seven Copper Coins that had locked the Black Spirit Rat earlier tightened and strangled it, and then the coins transformed from one into two, two into four, four into eight... again turning into countless Copper Coins, rushing towards the hundred Black Spirit Rats.

An astonishing scene occurred.

It was seen that beside each Black Spirit Rat, there were at least seven newly transformed Copper Coins appearing, and around the hundred Black Spirit Rats, there were densely packed Copper Coins filling the sky.

These Copper Coins, with a speed faster than the Black Spirit Rats, locked them all up, fixed in the void!

A hundred Black Spirit Rats, all fixed in the void!

This scene was simply terrifying!

As is known, these Black Spirit Rats are much more formidable than the seventy or eighty Zang Meng Beasts that Ye Chen had dealt with before, yet even so, they could not withstand the Divine Might of the Copper Coin Ancient Treasure!

Watching the hundred Black Spirit Rats locked alive in the void, Qianli Youyou’s mouth dropped open.

At this moment, Ye Chen pinched a spell with his hand.

All the Copper Coins tightened violently, directly killing the hundred Black Spirit Rats on the spot, and then the flames on the coins burned fiercely, incinerating the rat swarm into nothingness!

Then, Ye Chen reached out a large hand toward the three clusters of Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms ahead, grabbing them in his hand.

From Ye Chen capturing the first Black Spirit Rat, exterminating all the Black Spirit Rats, to collecting the treasure, all occurred in the blink of an eye.

Qianli Youyou was still in a daze when she saw Ye Chen had resolved all the demons.

Just as Qianli Youyou intended to speak with Ye Chen further, she saw that Ye Chen, having collected the Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms, flipped his hand to store them in his Spatial Divine Artifact and then looked directly in a particular direction.

"Fellow Daoist, come out and meet us."

Ye Chen’s voice startled Qianli Youyou greatly.

Is there someone else nearby?

Qianli Youyou had not noticed anything.

With Qianli Youyou’s surprised gaze and Ye Chen’s attention, the air rippled where Ye Chen was looking, and a figure appeared directly.

This was the figure of a Master!

Ye Chen recognized the person as one of the Overlord from the most prominent team from the "Primordial God Mountain" faction among the thirty teams participating in the Thirteenth Chaos Zone exploration.

After revealing himself, the Master looked at Ye Chen, eyes flashing with a bright light.

"Unexpectedly, a Heavenly Divine Venerable genius can have such observation skills, even discovering my hidden presence."

"The treasure in your hand can annihilate those Black Spirit Rats, attributed to the Divine Might of the treasure itself, but discovering me relied on your own ability!"

The Master said to Ye Chen, with an incredulous expression in his words.

This Master did not know that once Ye Chen stepped into the Great Hanging Forest, he had imprinted a Space Star Aperture in his body, allowing him to sense the Great Hanging Forest much more acutely than others!

Moreover, with Ye Chen’s already extraordinary Divine Sense, once this Master hid, Ye Chen noticed his movements.

If it weren’t for noticing the Master appearing when he exterminated the Black Spirit Rats, Ye Chen would have suspected that he was ambushing him for the Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms.

"I wonder why the senior hides nearby?"

Ye Chen asked, looking at this Master from the Primordial God Mountain, unperturbed as ever and even somewhat wary.

Seeing Ye Chen’s expression and the stunned Qianli Youyou beside him, the Master smiled and said to Ye Chen, "Young genius, don’t worry. I’m not here for the Chaos Gold Divine Mushrooms you just got."

"Encountering you two was unexpected."

"However, your combat strength and potent probing ability indeed surprise me, making you just fit for the spot I’ve been searching everywhere for!"

Just fit for a spot?

The words of the Master from Primordial God Mountain puzzled Ye Chen.

"Senior, what do you mean by this?"

The Master from Primordial God Mountain looked toward the depths of the Thirteenth Chaos Zone and explained to Ye Chen: "In front, we discovered an unknown realm with an unparalleled Treasure Land inside. However, that Treasure Land requires twenty-seven people to activate."

"Among these, nine must be people below the Divine Master realm to be suitable."

"Therefore, I’m under orders from my team leader to find suitable candidates everywhere, gathering them together to go to that unparalleled Treasure Land."
