Just as he was thinking about it...
Lin Tai and Yang Tian walked over quickly. Lin Tai handed a storage ring to Ye Chen and said, “Master, I’ve basically gotten the materials you wanted, but I still don’t have the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo that you ntioned.”
Ye Chen was about to speak when he heard him say, “However, when we were shopping, we t soone who said that he has it and that he’s willing to give it to you, but he wants to et you.”
The Heavenly Thunder Bamboo was a kind of water-based spiritual plant that could gather qi. Ye Chen planned to plant it in Nine Dragons Bay to provide spiritual qi for the area.
“He wants to et ?” Ye Chen was surprised. “Who is it?”
“The person calls himself Yuan Qitai. He says that he’s t you several tis in Shennongjia,” Lin Tai said truthfully.
Yuan Qitai?
Could it be him?
Ye Chen ca to a realization and said, “Let him enter!”
Half an hour later, an old man in a Chinese tunic suit walked into the Ye residence quickly. Then, he cupped his fists at Ye Chen who was standing by the lake and said, “I, Yuan Qitai, greet you, Senior Ye!”
“Where’s the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo?” Ye Chen turned around and looked at him.
Yuan Qitai did not hesitate. He imdiately took out an object that looked like the root of a bamboo shoot from his saddlebag and handed it over with both hands. “Senior Ye, are you referring to this object?”
Ye Chen stretched out his hand and grabbed it. The object imdiately flew into his hand. A few seconds later, he could not help but nod and say, “That’s right. It’s exactly what I want. Where did you get it?”
He was rather curious. Although the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo was not considered a rare item in the cultivation world, it was still relatively difficult to find on Earth.
“I discovered this in Kunlun in the early years. At that ti, I just treated it as an ordinary edible bamboo shoot, but in the end, I discovered that this kind of bamboo cannot be penetrated by swords and blades and is invincible against water and fire,” Yuan Qitai said truthfully.
Ever since the Dragon Gate et, he did not dare to take advantage of his seniority in front of Ye Chen anymore. After all, the person in front of him was the one who killed Shen Tiannan.
“Hmm, Kunlun again.”
A strange look flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes. After putting away the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo, he changed the topic, “Tell , why do you want to see ?”
Yuan Qitai hesitated for a mont, but in the end, he could not help but ask, “May I ask if you found a tomb in the sinkhole in Shennongjia?”
He had been holding this question in for a long ti. The reason why the four great tomb-raiding sects had gone to Shennongjia previously was because of the graves in the sinkhole.
In the end, Ye Chen had erged from the sinkhole on fire. It was quite obvious that Ye Chen must have obtained benefits from the sinkhole.
“No!” Ye Chen shook his head slightly. He was not lying. After all, the sinkhole was, at most, a place where a person would die. It was not a tomb at all.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Qitai could not help but reveal a disappointed expression. He said again, “I believe you, Senior Ye. This ti, however, I ca here mainly to ask for a favor.”
Ye Chen did not reply.
Yuan Qitai sighed softly in his heart as he said, “In the early years of our Banshan sect, we discovered a ghost ship on the Wu River. At that ti, the previous leader of the Banshan sect and the people from the other three branches went to investigate, but in the end, they never ca back. After that, we investigated and found that place. That ghost ship has appeared five tis in a row in the past 100 years. It appears once every 20 years...”
“So, do you want to head to the ghost ship?” Ye Chen frowned.
Bang!
Yuan Qitai suddenly knelt heavily in front of Ye Chen and pleaded, “Senior Ye, the previous leader of the Banshan sect was my master. This matter has always been a vice in our hearts. I know that you might have already stepped into the vital energy realm, so I’m begging you to help us just this once.”
He then promised, “Don’t worry. As long as you’re willing to help us, from now on, you’ll be revered by the four tomb-raiding lineages!”
“What’s the point of wanting you to be revered by ?” Ye Chen turned his back against him. “You can go back now!”
Yuan Qitai’s expression changed. Just as he was about to say sothing else, Lin Tai walked over from the side and said, “This way, sir!”
In the end, he could only sigh and leave in disappointnt.
After he left, Ye Chen took out the materials that Lin Tai had gathered and began to refine the array formation.
..
At the sa ti, in a private villa in Lin City, a few elders sat opposite each other, but their expressions were filled with impatience.
It was not until Yuan Qitai returned expressionlessly that one of the elders ca forward and asked, “Old Yuan, how is it? Did Senior Ye agree?”
Yuan Qitai smiled bitterly in response.
“How can that be? Didn’t you tell him that as long as he was willing to agree, the four tomb-raiding branches would be willing to respect him?” The other old woman was in disbelief.
“Senior Ye said that he doesn’t need us to submit.” Yuan Qitai took a deep breath and shook his head.
The old woman’s face imdiately darkened. “Then, what do we do now? Previously, we still wanted to cooperate with Shen Tiannan, but now that he’s dead, in all of China, only Ye Chen has the strength. However...”
“Ye Chen doesn’t know how to appreciate favors. Does he look down on us, the four branches of the Tomb Raider? If the previous chief of the four branches were still alive, how could he even be so arrogant in China?” a man in a bamboo hat sneered.
“Old Yuan, didn’t you tell him about the situation of the ghost ship?” the old man from before could not help but ask.
“Since I couldn’t figure out his bottom line, I didn’t tell him in detail. I just gave a rough description.” Yuan Qitai seed to hesitate before concluding, “Forget it. Since he doesn’t agree, then let’s go back and make the preparations. After all, it’s less than a month before the ghost ship appears again!”
..
At the Nine Dragons Bay villa, as Ye Chen stood on the Nine Dragons Bay, his Divine Consciousness completely covered it. He raised his hand and shot out nine cyan-colored cyclones, which successively landed in nine corners of the Nine Dragons Bay.
“Set up the formation!”
Then, he walked to the center of the Nine Dragons Bay and a spirit plate appeared in his hand. As he started the spell with both hands, the spirit plate suddenly released a beam of light.
“Chi!”
The spirit plate expanded with the wind and covered the sky and earth like an enormous stone mill. The stone mill completely covered the entire Nine Dragons Bay.
In the next mont.
Nine dazzling rays of light shot out from nine corners. The rays of light were about 9 to 12 ters like a fountain. The nine rays of light in the water gathered together in the high sky, forming a large net that was tightly knitted. The huge net completely covered the entire Nine Dragons Bay villa.
Boom!
The surface of the lake suddenly trembled as if it was boiling. Before long, waves of white fog rose up on the surface of the lake. The white fog was so dense that it was enough to be caught with one’s hands.
Then, a golden rainbow appeared in the sky.
Countless fish jumped out of the lake and rushed toward the rainbow as if the rainbow was the dragon gate.
When he saw this scene, the Patriarch of Hell clicked his tongue and said, “What a wonderful array formation. Fellow Ye, even I, who was at the sa level as you, wouldn’t be able to do this.”
“Yes!” Ye Chen slowly opened his eyes. As he sensed the surroundings being rich in spiritual energy, his eyes glimred with a trace of satisfaction.
“From now on, Nine Dragons Bay villa can barely be regarded as a spiritual land. Perhaps in a few hundred years, the birth of a Heavenly Spirit Geographical Vein might even be possible.”
At this ti, Lin Tai ca over to report, “Master, the people from the Heavenly Palace have arrived.”
