The exploration team heading towards the Five Elents Mountain converged on a huge platform to the north of Rift Sky City.
As Ye Chen neared the gathering spot, he could see from afar that the platform and the void above it were filled with countless figures of warriors. These warriors were packed so densely that there must have been at least a thousand or two!
"The Five Elents Mountain exploration truly lives up to its reputation as one of the three grand explorations joined by the thirty-three continents—there are indeed many participants!"
"Moreover, these people all stepped into the Rotating Pill Realm after fusing all five Divine Patterns and are either Five Apertures Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses or Heavenly Saint Realm powerhouses."
Ye Chen had learned from Palace Master Yuan Li on his way to join the Five Elents Mountain exploration that there would be fifty people from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent participating in this exploration.
The Barbaric Wilderness Continent was just one of the thirty-three continents. With fifty people from one continent, the total from thirty-three continents would be as many as a thousand or two thousand!
Not to ntion those continents contributing even more participants than the Barbaric Wilderness Continent.
Ye Chen also heard that the quotas for the Five Elents Mountain exploration were restricted only for those below the late stage of the Heavenly Saint Realm. Those below the late stage of the Heavenly Saint Realm must obtain an Adventure Talisman to enter the Five Elents Mountain.
However, for late-stage Heavenly Saint powerhouses, as long as the exploration in the Five Elents Mountain begins, they can enter and have their own adventure if they wish.
After all, late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm warriors are among the most elite figures across the thirty-three continents, and many rules practically beco redundant in front of them.
When Ye Chen flew to the empty space above the platform, many warriors turned to look at him.
After all, Ye Chen had defeated Ao Lei to win the final auction item, the "Void Heaven Sword Embryo," at the Sand Sea Palace auction, drawing the attention of many.
Now, many warriors at the scene had attended the Sand Sea Palace auction and naturally recognized Ye Chen.
"That’s the young man who contended with Ao Lei for the Void Heaven Sword Embryo. I inquired about him; his na is Ye Chen, a talented youth from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent."
"He dared to vie with Ao Lei for treasures. I thought Ao Lei would cause him trouble, but seeing him safe and sound, it’s clear that even Ao Lei has no way to deal with him. It seems this youth indeed has great strength. When we enter the Five Elents Mountain, we’d better not provoke him."
Many warriors were looking at Ye Chen and whispering among themselves.
Ye Chen’s divine sense was incredibly strong, so he could hear everyone’s private conversations clearly. However, Ye Chen just smiled faintly without offering any explanations as he moved to seek a quiet spot to sit in ditation, waiting for the formal start of the Five Elents Mountain exploration.
Just then, a familiar voice called out to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, co over here!"
Looking towards the source of the voice, Ye Chen saw one of the three great palace masters of the Heavenly Sacred Palace, the Skyscraper Palace Master, smiling and waving at him.
"Skyscraper Palace Master, are you also participating in the Five Elents Mountain exploration?"
Ye Chen was montarily taken aback, then his figure burst forth, instantly shooting over to the Skyscraper Palace Master’s side. Find your next read at empire
Behind the Skyscraper Palace Master, Ye Chen saw about thirty or forty people from the Heavenly Sacred Palace, presumably a group of the fifty from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent who were participating in the Five Elents Mountain exploration.
"Ye Chen, I just arrived at the Heavenly Evolution Continent yesterday and already heard quite a bit of news about you," said the Skyscraper Palace Master with a smile as he saw Ye Chen settle beside him, "I heard you had a gambling match with the Little Saintess of the Heavenly Fire Holy Land and won, and that you defeated that Beast Union’s Ao Lei at the Sand Sea Palace auction, securing an exceedingly valuable treasure!"
"It seems that we, the palace masters, underestimated you. You are not only an absolute genius at our Heavenly Sacred Palace, but you also stand out among the powerful figures of the thirty-three continents."
As the Skyscraper Palace Master praised Ye Chen, other disciples from the Heavenly Sacred Palace and the Heavenly Saints looked excitedly towards him.
Among these people, there were disciples from the Rotating Pill Realm, as well as Heavenly Saints who had cultivated at the Heavenly Saint Mountain, with the majority being early-stage Heavenly Saints. Even the early-stage Heavenly Saints had been extrely low-profile after arriving at Rift Sky City.
After all, the Barbaric Wilderness Continent was not considered the most powerful among the thirty-three continents, and their strengths were not prominent among the powerful figures of the thirty-three continents; being low-profile was their only option.
They never imagined that Ye Chen, who ca from the sa Heavenly Sacred Palace as them, would shine so brightly upon arriving in the thirty-three continents!
He feared not even Ao Lei from the Beast Union and defeated the Little Saintess from the Heavenly Fire Holy Land!
This was indeed a proud mont for the warriors of the Barbaric Wilderness Continent!
As fellow adventurers from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent partaking in the great exploration, they felt honored and proud to have such a young powerhouse like Ye Chen among them.
Hearing the Skyscraper Palace Master’s praise and seeing the excitent of others, Ye Chen smiled and shook his head. He didn’t pursue the topic further but instead asked the Skyscraper Palace Master, "Palace Master, are you also joining the Five Elents Mountain exploration this ti?"
The Skyscraper Palace Master laughed, "This ti, I’m here on the orders of Palace Master Yuan Li to look after the adventurers from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent. Palace Master Yuan Li especially ntioned you to ..."
While Ye Chen was exchanging words with the Skyscraper Palace Master and the warriors from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent, many more people were flying towards the gathering spot.
```
Among them, there were people from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent who ca later, and even more so, there were adventurers from each of the other thirty-two continents.
When Huo i’er, along with Ao Lei, arrived at the gathering spot, it certainly caused quite a spectacle and clamor.
This ti, Huo i’er brought not only two maidservants but also eight equally incomparably beautiful won. These won were all exceptionally beautiful, and especially in the Leaving Fire Continent’s Fire Rune robes, they had a unique allure.
Furthermore, with Huo i’er’s pure and enchanting supre beauty at the lead, naturally, she drew the continuous gaze of various warriors.
Ye Chen was amidst the crowd from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent, observing the eight won who ca with Huo i’er. When he saw that they were all from the Heavenly Saint Realm, Huo i’er caught sight of Ye Chen.
In the midst of countless warriors’ stares, she led the group of beautiful won directly to Ye Chen’s side and greeted him with a smile.
This situation made the warriors from the Barbaric Wilderness Continent around Ye Chen feel both flush with excitent and slight embarrassnt, while other warriors from different regions, seeing all these beautiful won gathering around Ye Chen, were filled with imnse envy.
Another great commotion was when Ao Lei made his entrance.
The alliance of the Wan Beasts, which Ao Lei represented, spanned five continents. The adventurers from these five continents who had co to the Five Elents Mountain this ti added up to over three hundred people!
This number was the most among all the forces, naturally drawing imnse attention!
Apart from the two Heavenly Saints in the late stages leading the three hundred-plus adventurers from the Wan Beast Alliance, what was even more eye-catching were the four late-stage Heavenly Saints who were specifically assigned to protect Ao Lei.
Having four late-stage Heavenly Saints all at once appearing to personally guard soone was probably the grandest display among all the adventurers!
Upon arriving at the gathering spot, Ao Lei’s eyes scanned the crowd and imdiately spotted Ye Chen. His eyes flickered with an inexplicable aning as he looked at Ye Chen.
At that mont, Ye Chen also saw Ao Lei and the four Heavenly Saints beside him. Ye Chen gave a light smile and then continued to turn his head and chat with Huo i’er.
Seeing Ye Chen ignoring him and only talking to Huo i’er made Ao Lei’s eyes turn colder, and he thought sharply, "Hmph, Ye Chen, bask in your arrogance while you can. I want to see how long you can rely on Huo i’er. When you part ways with her, that will be the ti of your demise!"
All the adventurers believed that Ao Lei’s arrival would be the grandest scene witnessed among the gathered adventurers. However, when the Saint Heirs from the Xuanjin Continent, Qingmu Continent, and Xugu Continent arrived, the countless late-stage Heavenly Saints present were truly shaken.
"My heavens, the three great Saint Heirs, how co they’ve all co this ti?"
"Especially Jin Lieyang from Xuanjin Continent, he is already at the pinnacle of the late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm. It’s said that he has entered the Five Elents Mountain several tis already, and he’s doing so again?"
These late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm beings couldn’t help but be astonished. The Xuanjin Continent, Qingmu Continent, and Xugu Continent, along with the Leaving Fire Continent and Tianmiao Continent, were among the thirty-three continents known to have the most Heavenly Saint Realm powerhouses.
Though these five continents had not ford an alliance, their mutual connections made their combined strength far surpass the Wan Beast Alliance!
Especially regarding the five Saint Heirs and Saintesses of the five continents, they were the talk of countless people across the thirty-three continents.
All warriors did not expect that after seeing Huo i’er arrive, they would be able to witness Saint Heirs from three other continents arriving as well.
Aside from the Little Saintess from the Heavenly Evolution Continent’s Luo Water Holy Land, it was almost as if four out of the five Saint Heirs and Saintesses of the five continents had appeared all at once!
This was probably an unprecedented event in the history of adventures to the Five Elents Mountain!
Everyone’s attention, in particular, fell on Jin Lieyang, the white-robed handso young man leading the three Saints. Jin Lieyang’s own cultivation had already reached the absolute peak of the late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm, and it was rumored that he had the inheritance Holy Crystal of the Xuanjin Continent’s sacred ground. With the help of the Holy Crystal, he could invoke incredible sacred ground divine abilities.
His strength made all the late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm beings shudder, naturally becoming the focus of everyone’s attention.
Even among Ao Lei’s entourage, Ao Xuan and Ao Ming, upon seeing Jin Lieyang’s arrival, had their gazes intensely solidify, and they imdiately lowered their heads to instruct Ao Lei, telling him not to provoke Jin Lieyang under any circumstances!
"Are these the Saint Heirs from the three other great continents that rival the Leaving Fire Continent?"
Ye Chen looked towards the three great Saint Heirs, and upon seeing the faint Divine Patterns on their foreheads, his heart stirred as well.
He knew that the faint Divine Patterns on the foreheads of these three Saint Heirs must be similar to the faint Fire Rune on Huo i’er’s forehead, containing powerful Holy Crystals.
"Huo i’er, I’ve heard that the five great continents are closely linked like branches of the sa tree. Now that the three Saint Heirs have arrived, why don’t you go and et them?" Ye Chen found it strange when he saw Huo i’er show no sign of movent upon the arrival of the three Saint Heirs, so he asked her.
Huo i’er gave Ye Chen a gentle smile, stepped into the void, and walked towards the three Saint Heirs; however, as she moved, Ye Chen heard her secretive transmission, "Ye Chen, our five sacred lands are not as close as they appear on the surface. Particularly this Jin Lieyang, he’s not a simple man. When you enter the Land of the Five Elents, be very wary of him."
As Huo i’er transmitted her ssage, she had already reached Jin Lieyang’s side.
Seeing Huo i’er approaching, the two Saint Heirs beside Jin Lieyang both showed smiles, and Jin Lieyang too looked at Huo i’er with a smile, "Junior Sister i’er, it’s been a long ti. I didn’t expect you’d co to the Five Elents Mountain this ti."
