Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 625 - 628: Formation Complete

In everyone’s eyes.

That grand and towering hall should have been the center of the Southern King’s Tomb.

But who could have imagined that the palace was merely a trap to lure people in? And the real treasure vault was just an inconspicuous stone house, the treasures inside already swept clean by someone.

Of course, there were still some cultivators who refused to give up, rushing there to explore, only to find some jade pupil scrolls reduced to powder from battle and many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.

This made many Celestial Venerables beat their chests in regret.

"Pity us fighting to the death in the hall while others left with the Southern King’s treasures!"

"That was the Southern King’s treasure... and it’s just been taken away like that, we didn’t even get a bite, not even a sip of the soup."

"Wonder which lucky young lad it was!"

Of course.

The most shocking news was naturally the demise of the six great City Lords.

These six City Lords came with great momentum, only to be silently buried in the Martial Tomb, their bodies nowhere to be found. If not for the clues identifying these people, no one might have known they died here!

"My goodness, six City Lords, six Celestial Venerable Ninth Layers, plus a hundred elite Celestial Venerables, enough to flatten a medium-sized city, yet they were silently killed?"

"Whoever did this, could it be a Human Immortal?"

Zhang Muyun, Tang Lifei, and Lin Tianlai couldn’t help speculating.

"Indeed, I reckon only a Human Immortal could have slain these people!" Zhang Muyun heavily pounded the table, eyes filled with anger: "Who knows which petty Human Immortal snatched food from us Celestial Venerables!"

The other few prodigies in the field were also full of indignation.

To know, they had spent so much effort for the Southern King’s treasure vault. Yet who would have thought, there was a Human Immortal breaking the rules, making all their efforts go in vain.

"However, it seems Ye Qingchen has benefited this time!" Sun Wuming snorted coldly, "I heard he managed to come out alive from the Human Immortal Martial Tomb, if I run into him, I’d definitely reduce him to dust!"

"That kid’s really audacious, even daring to enter the Human Immortal Martial Tomb," He Zhiyuan sneered, "Pity, next time he might not dare to show up in front of us again!"

Several people in the field had eyes full of mockery and disdain.

In their view.

Ye Qingchen was but an ant they could crush at will, what right did he have to challenge them?

Listening to the conversation, Chu Tian Association secretly chuckled coldly:

"How would you know, Ye Qingchen’s cultivation has now reached the Celestial Venerable Seventh Layer! The Southern King’s treasure wasn’t taken by some Human Immortal, but fell into Ye Qingchen’s hands! And those six City Lords and the hundred elite Celestial Venerables all were slain by Ye Qingchen!"

"Pity, you know nothing at all!"

"If you knew, would you still have the guts to talk this way?"

Thinking of this.

Chu Tian Association couldn’t help but sigh longly.

He already knew.

The current Ye Qingchen had reached a level he could not possibly match, even comparable to top prodigies like Wu Xingyun and Tuoba Ye!

...

Just as the outside world was in chaos.

Ye Qingchen had already returned to Hidden Dragon Mountain with the Southern King’s treasures, although the trip to the Human Immortal Martial Tomb nearly cost him at the last moment, he ultimately turned peril into safety.

As for Chu Tian Association, the other party had been scared witless, which is why Ye Qingchen spared his life, otherwise killing him would be as easy as squashing an ant. No matter how high Chu Tian Association reached as a Celestial Venerable Eighth Layer, claiming to be a peerless prodigy with numerous magical treasures, how could he be Ye Qingchen’s match?

"Tonight, the Ten Thousand Swords Array can be set up!"

He let out a long breath of turbid air.

Ye Qingchen stood atop the mountain, overlooking the entire Hidden Dragon Mountain.

Through Ye Qingchen’s transformations.

The entire Hidden Dragon Mountain had already become an Immortal Cave Mansion, the dense Spiritual Qi turning into a spread of green rain, falling and causing ripples on the spiritual pool. The lotus leaves in the pool occupied a third of it, and a few fish swam past, left there casually by Lu Yanwu.

The Blood Bodhi Tree at the poolside had grown to five zhang tall!

The enormous tree crown was like a canopy, covering the heavens and earth. On closer inspection, the tree had borne more than a dozen fruits, and these fruits had begun to slightly emanate a golden light.

To say this kind of transformation was due to a black inconspicuous stone Ye Qingchen found in the Southern King’s treasure vault.

If not for being stopped by the Three-tailed Fox, Ye Qingchen might have discarded this stone.

"This is called a Wood Core, at least the core of an Earth Immortal level Tree Demon!" The Three-tailed Fox looked relieved, "With this Wood Core, your Blood Bodhi Tree might grow into a Heavenly Grade Top Heavenly and Earthly Treasure!"

Thus, the Blood Bodhi Tree that merged with the Wood Core underwent such a massive transformation.

Now, it could even be called the Golden Jade Bodhi Tree.

Besides.

Ye Qingchen also planted many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, with Hidden Dragon Mountain’s immense Spiritual Qi fully supporting the growth of these Spiritual Treasures. Looking down from the mountain peak, you could also see the densely planted Spirit Swords inverted across various parts of the mountain.

These Spirit Swords were all collected from the Human Immortal Martial Tomb, each reaching the Celestial Tier Top, totaling around hundreds of thousands. Their quality far surpassed those on the Barbaric Continent, almost equivalent to Half-Step Saint Tier weapons.

Additionally, nine Holy Grade lower-grade Spirit Swords were separately collected by him, using the Gui Xu Sword as the core to form the Ten Directions Heaven-Breaking Array!

"Next, activate the entire Grand Array!"

Ye Qingchen closed his eyes, letting his divine sense extend infinitely.

In this vast void.

The range of his divine sense was utter darkness. However, the tens of thousands of Spirit Swords were like scattered starlight, densely packed throughout Hidden Dragon Mountain.

Towards the void.

Ye Qingchen suddenly widened his eyes in rage and shouted solemnly:

"Rise!"

The next moment.

The tens of thousands of Spirit Swords on the mountain suddenly burst into brilliance. His divine sense, like a chain, swiftly extended towards the nearest Spirit Sword!

This Spirit Sword quietly quivered, splitting off a chain extending towards the next Sword.

One! Two! Three!... The speed grew faster and faster, until finally, a total of 129,600 Spirit Swords had all been illuminated.

"Here it comes!"

When these 129,600 Spirit Swords lit up.

Ye Qingchen’s spirit was tense.

He abruptly joined his hands together, causing that surging Sword Qi to rapidly converge at that instant, like hundreds of rivers uniting, forming a force that shot directly into the sky.

Even though an Illusion Array masked it, the array-forming Sword Qi inadvertently leaked out!

At this moment.

People everywhere raised their heads in slight confusion, gazing towards the sky.

"What’s going on? Did someone just set up a Sword Array?"

"What Sword Array is this? To possess such pure refined Sword Qi. This kind of array could easily kill even a Human Immortal, I wonder which Array Master is arranging it!"

However.

Because the Sword Qi soon dissipated, many couldn’t trace its source. Even the responsive commanders, feeling the Sword Qi’s power, hesitated briefly before retracting their divine sense.

"That was close, if I hadn’t reacted quickly and used the Illusion Array to cover the Sword Qi’s location, I might have exposed Hidden Dragon Mountain’s position!" Ye Qingchen wiped the sweat from his brow, exclaiming.

"But now that the array is set, even if a Human Immortal comes to storm Hidden Dragon Mountain, I am not afraid! Next, I can cultivate with peace of mind!"

Ye Qingchen squinted his eyes, his gaze distant.

In a flash, eighteen days passed.

The Taotian Palace competition was finally about to begin!
