Chapter 2039: Chapter 2039 One is Worth a Hundred
Ye Liuyun’s clone sliced off the head of the eel with a single stroke of his sword, throwing it away while collecting the segmented parts of the eel.
The Crocodile Beastman’s scales and its inner core were not wasted either. His clone stored it all within his spatial realm.
The Divine Soul of the eel beast was consumed by the clone, who after scanning its soul, confirmed that within the cave was indeed a spring of life with even higher quality.
Moreover, beneath the pool of water, there was an emerald Life Crystal which can enhance the quality of the life spring water.
As soon as the clone entered the cave, he promptly stored the life spring water and Life Crystal in his spatial realm, placing them into his own pool of life spring water.
Then, the clone swapped positions again with Ye Liuyun, allowing Ye Liuyun to continue his journey.
Ye Liuyun didn’t dare to dawdle. When he emerged again, ferocious beasts from far away had already picked up the scent of fresh blood and came over to inspect it.
Upon this, he immediately darted towards the thistle field.
"I wonder what kind of treasures are inside the cave, why did he come out so quickly?"
"He’s heading towards the thistle field again! Could it be that there is a treasure hidden over there?"
Many of the elders murmured among themselves while greatly admiring Ye Liuyun’s performance.
"No wonder he kept the crocodile beast last time, so that’s how he planned on utilizing it!"
"This young man’s soul power is so formidable that he managed to easily defeat a Level-8 warrior!"
"He certainly has quite a few treasures on him!"
Now, they were no longer concerned about Ye Liuyun being in danger, instead they were all curious why Ye Liuyun wanted to return to the thistle field.
After Ye Liuyun returned, he took a look around. All the sea buckthorn there had been completely burned, leaving no traces behind.
Only then did Ye Liuyun let the Barbarian Bull revert back to its original form, releasing it and allowing the Barbarian Bull to help him excavate the underground palace.
Once the Barbarian Bull was brought out, it stomped its feet repeatedly, causing the ground to tremble continuously.
The soil of the sea buckthorn area was semi-sandy in nature which was inherently not dense. When it stomped its feet, the underground palace was vibrantly jolted upwards while the sand and soil sunk into the ground.
Many elders were amazed to see the sand on the ground flowing downwards, but the ground was shaking as a whole.
Then, a pointed roof emerged, and only then they realized that it was a large hall. However, they couldn’t see any treasures inside.
Ye Liuyun didn’t dare to wait any longer. This commotion surely alarmed the nearby creatures.
He tried to input his divine consciousness into the palace. Unexpectedly, the palace indeed proved to be a treasure as it directly absorbed Ye Liuyun’s divine consciousness, acknowledging him as its master.
This made it easier for Ye Liuyun. He directly stored the palace into his spatial world, letting his clones to deal with it while he dashed towards his next target.
The next target was a tomb that was a day and a half away from him.
"Judging by this timeframe, I’m afraid I really won’t be able to visit too many places. Most of the time is wasted on the road!" Ye Liuyun also sighed in his heart.
The tomb was located in the southwest corner of the Secret Realm, while the tower was in the southeast corner. After Ye Liuyun arrived at the tomb, it would take another day to rush to the tower.
However, in order to obtain the treasure he coveted, he had no choice.
Fortunately, in his spatial world, his avatar had already led everyone into the newly acquired palace. Inside there were countless cultivation resources, which were absolutely more rewarding than going to multiple places.
"One is worth a hundred, so it’s not a loss!" Ye Liuyun was quite content.
At this moment, the elders in the main hall finally understood why Ye Liuyun wanted to return.
The reason he didn’t take the treasure last time was due to lack of time. Moreover, this treasure is buried underground, not easily discovered by other creatures.
The ferocious beasts in this secret place are aware of the dangers around them and won’t easily come to investigate. Even if they notice the disappearance of the sandthorn, it’s hard to discover the buried treasure.
During this time, Ye Liuyun took advantage of the situation and killed the eel monster with the help of the alligator half-beast.
They didn’t know what treasures were in the main hall, but based on past situations, they knew there must be good things inside.
"How did this kid discover the stuff underneath?" someone exclaimed in confusion.
"Tsk, this kid’s plan is flawless, he’s quite capable!" others echoed, admiring Ye Liuyun’s meticulous plan.
"He must have reaped a lot this time! Two days’ time is definitely worth it!" some can’t help but envy Ye Liuyun’s gains.
When their sighing ended, they started guessing about Ye Liuyun’s next destination.
"The tomb!" Elder Kurong confidently proclaimed.
"How do you know it’s the tomb?" Mao Hongyin asked curiously.
"Haven’t you noticed? The places this boy has gone to are either the most dangerous or places others can’t find. Often, the more such a place, the fewer the visitors, the greater his gains!" Elder Kurong analyzed.
Everyone nodded in agreement. That tomb was indeed a forbidden area for many disciples.
Of course, there were people who had ventured in. But the number is small and none had reached the central of the tomb.
On his way, Ye Liuyun rushed to the tomb without rest, consuming nearly half his Xuan Yuan. As soon as he entered the underground tomb, he immediately swapped with his clone and returned to the Xuan Kong Stone to recover his Xuan Yuan.
The clone swiftly cleared all obstacles with ghostly fires of the netherworld and the power of Buddhist light, heading straight for the central tomb.
Since this place was underground, Ye Liuyun wasn’t worried about being spied on. He directly unleashed Golden Radiance and Ning Fei to work with the clone. They wiped out a zombie, who was guarded the central tomb, in the realm of eight layers in an instant.
The clone let Jin Hui and Ning Fei guard the entrance of the tomb, to prevent other zombies from entering while he returned to the Xuankong stone. There, he cultivated with Ye Liuyun, replenishing the advance energy.
The clone let Golden Radiance and Ning Fei guard the entrance of the tomb, to prevent other zombies from entering while he returned to the Xuan spatial stone. There, he practiced with Ye Liuyun, replenishing the Xuan Yuan energy.
Once in danger, they might not have enough advance energy to cope with.
They had already acquired enough treasures and didn’t wish to waste time going elsewhere. Lastly, going to the tower was enough.
That’s why Ye Liuyun allowed himself two days to replenish his Xuan Yuan energy here, to prevent causing suspicion to those observing him if he ventured out too soon.
“No wonder powerful individuals refrain from making the first move. It truly drains resources greatly!” Ye Liuyun sighed.
“No wonder powerful individuals refrain from making the first move. It truly drains resources greatly!” Ye Liuyun sighed.
Afterwards, they retraced their steps back. just before leaving the tomb, they withdrew the clone and others back into the space world.
"It’s only been two days! How far do you think he went inside, what could he have obtained?" Jin Qingsong curiously asked the others.
Everyone collectively shook their heads. Only Elder Kurong said, "Certainly the best treasure. He simply won’t settle for anything less!"
