Hearing about the marvelous uses of the "Fire Elental Lotus Seed," Ye Chen was certainly tempted.
He was now at the True God has of the Four Tribulations, and although his combat power was formidable, he was considered to have a quite low realm within the Wanmu Mountain Divine Nation.
Not to ntion others, take Long Li for example, who was only sixteen years old and had already reached the Upper God King realm, possessing combat power comparable to that of a Heavenly Divine Venerable, which was far stronger than Ye Chen.
Let alone those genuine Immortal Divine Venerables, Sovereign Realm existences.
Ye Chen, of course, wanted to seize every opportunity to enhance his strength.
Treasures like the "Fire Elental Lotus Seed," which greatly benefited the increase of one’s realm, were rare opportunities. Ye Chen had co to the Nine Suns Ancient Land in search of precious treasures that could improve his cultivation; encountering them now, he didn’t want to miss out.
However, Ye Chen also had so doubts.
"Dongfang, Wang, if we go together to pick the Fire Elental Lotus Seeds, it will be due to our lack of strength if we can’t get them. But if we do pick them, can we really allocate more than ten seeds per person?" Ye Chen asked Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen.
The two had said they had also invited four others to assist, which would bring the total number of people to seven.
The Fire Elental Lotus Seeds were not ordinary items; finding enough to allocate more than ten seeds per person for seven people would require a large cluster of fire lotuses.
Even though the two had said the lotus seeds were enough for seven or eight people to share, ten seeds were needed to aid a True God in breaking through to the next realm. Ye Chen, who was at a critical period of breaking through from the Four Tribulations True God to the Fifth Tribulations True God, naturally wanted to ask exactly how many he could get.
Upon hearing Ye Chen’s question, Dongfang Xuanyi knew that Ye Chen was interested in going to Fla Mountain.
He smiled at Ye Chen and said, "One of the God Kings of our City Lord’s Mansion had obtained a slot to enter the Nine Suns Ancient Land the last ti it was opened. After he ca here, he stumbled upon a cluster of fire lotuses hidden deep within the ’Fla Mountain’ while chasing a fla demon in the ’Fiery Realm.’
"At that ti, the lotuses had just blood and had not yet produced ’Fire Elental Lotus Seeds.’ Moreover, since these items cannot be moved, our City Lord’s Mansion’s God King sealed off that area.
"Now a thousand years have passed, and by our calculations, this ti the Nine Suns Ancient Land has opened, the ’Fire Elental Lotus Seeds’ should have truly matured. The City Lord’s Mansion decided to use the picking of the Fire Elental Lotus Seeds as a trial for us."
"That God King has estimated that the cluster of fire lotuses he found produced well over a hundred ’Fire Elental Lotus Seeds.’ These seeds are greatly useful to us at the True God realm but not so much at the God King realm. Our City Lord’s Mansion’s God King would not deceive us."
Wang Chen also smiled and said, "With over a hundred Fire Elental Lotus Seeds, there will definitely be more than enough for each of us to get at least ten. Rest assured, friend, since we invited you to join us in this task, we will ensure that each of you gets at least ten seeds. If it’s not enough, we will give up our share to ensure you get ten."
Clearly, both were fully confident about the quantity of Fire Elental Lotus Seeds discovered by their City Lord’s Mansion in the Nine Suns Ancient Land.
Hearing the two speak thus, Ye Chen smiled and replied, "Since both of you have said so, I will accompany you to the ’Fla Mountain’ to take a look."
"However, to enter the ’Fiery Realm,’ we need to find at least ten thousand ’Snow Crystals’ first."
When Ye Chen agreed, smiles appeared on the faces of Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen. They had observed Ye Chen’s strength before, and with his help, their chances of getting the "Fire Elental Lotus Seeds" and completing the mission would be much greater.
"Ten thousand ’Snow Crystals’ shouldn’t be difficult for us. Let’s search for ’Snow Crystals’ while we head towards the ’Fiery Realm!’" said Dongfang Xuanyi.
Wang Chen added, "The four helpers we agreed to et before entering the Nine Suns Ancient Land have now been scattered by the teleport. We agreed to et at the ’Black Mist Valley’ in the ’Fiery Realm.’ Once we’ve collected enough ’Snow Crystals,’ we’ll go wait at the ’Black Mist Valley’ for them. Once everyone arrives, we can all advance to ’Fla Mountain’ together!"
Ye Chen nodded.
After conversing a bit more, the three of them moved swiftly and disappeared into the snowy forest.
The following period was similar to before, with Ye Chen moving and searching for "Snow Crystals."
However, this ti, in addition to Xiaojiu and the little monkey who were hidden in the Ice Snow Jade Pendant, Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen were with him.
All three were powerful True Gods, and for them, the outer periter of the Nine Suns Ancient Land, the "Icy Realm," was not an obstacle.
They didn’t encounter any troubleso ancient beasts like the "Ice Shadow Fox" again, and their journey went smoothly.
By the second day, each of the three had collected ten thousand "Snow Crystals," eting the requirents to enter the Nine Suns Ancient Land’s "Fiery Realm."
By that ti, they had reached the depths of the "Icy Realm" and could reach the territory of the "Fiery Realm" after about a day’s journey.
Having collected enough "Snow Crystals," the three pushed on at full speed. But as they passed through a huge valley, the scene that suddenly appeared in front of them made all three stop their flight.
Looking towards the vast valley ahead, one could see a snow-white streak of fleeing light flying at an extre speed in the distance, followed by five brown-yellow streaks of fleeing light in hot pursuit.
The martial artist within the snow-white fleeing light was clearly not as strong as the five chasing in the brown-yellow light, often having their distance closed in on, but whenever it happened, the snow-white light would emit an eye-stingingly bright blue glow.
As soon as the blue light emitted, the speed of the snow-white escaping light greatly increased, and it quickly pulled away from the five brownish-yellow chasing lights behind it.
In this manner, the distances would shrink and then expand as a total of six escaping lights dashed through the sky at extre speeds. In just an instant, they were about to streak across the vast valley where Ye Chen was located.
"Sigh, looks like it’s another chase, probably that person in the front got hold of so treasure, which sparked the greed of those behind, prompting them to make a move and snatch it," Dongfang Xuanyi, standing next to Ye Chen, said as he watched the lights streaking across the sky at high speed.
Wang Chen likewise said, "This happens every ti the Nine Suns Ancient Land is opened. Each ti, a third or even half of the martial artists fall not just because many die in the dangerous areas of the ancient land, but also at the hands of other martial artists."
Although the two of them were discussing this, they had no intention of intervening.
After all, for a martial artist, such chases and killings were all too common; having nothing to do with them, they wouldn’t get involved without good reason.
Even though they had no intention of stepping in, they noticed Ye Chen furrowing his brows as they spoke.
"Ye Chen, you..." Before the two could inquire what was wrong, they saw Ye Chen suddenly soar into the skies, calling out toward the quickly approaching snow-white light, "Ningnin, what’s going on?"
"Ningnin?" Hearing Ye Chen directly call out a na, Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen were taken aback.
Could it be that the fleeing person was acquainted with Ye Chen?
While the two were still in shock, the fleeing snow-white light, having heard Ye Chen’s voice reverberating across the skies, suddenly emitted a surprised and delighted voice of a female martial artist, "Ye Chen, is it you?!"
Then, they saw the extrely fast snow-white light in the sky, with its blue luminosity shining brightly, make a few flashes before landing next to Ye Chen.
Afterward, the escaping light dissipated, revealing the figure of the martial artist within.
This was a white-robed young girl at the level of the Four Tribulations True God, and who else could it be but Nie Ningnin, a junior mber of City Lord Nie’s lineage?!
When Ye Chen had first observed the fleeing snow-white light, he felt an extrely familiar aura emanating from it, and in a split second, he thought of Nie Ningnin, one of the seven juniors City Lord Nie had asked him to look after.
Seeing that it was likely Nie Ningnin being pursued by five martial artists, Ye Chen naturally wouldn’t stand by idly.
And it turned out to be really Nie Ningnin!
Ye Chen looked toward Nie Ningnin, who had now revealed herself, and saw her holding a blue amulet in her hand.
Nie Ningnin’s strength couldn’t possibly sustain the extre speed of flight she previously displayed; it must be the blue amulet in her hand providing her with special Divine Might, allowing her to continue escaping without being caught by the five pursuers. Explore stories on .Côm
"What happened?" Ye Chen asked, looking at Nie Ningnin.
Seeing that it was indeed Ye Chen in front of her, Nie Ningnin’s frantic heart suddenly cald.
She rembered the incredible stories about Ye Chen her great-uncle had told her before coming to the Nine Suns Ancient Land.
Ye Chen was an exceptional genius who could overpower even an Upper God King like her great-uncle! Moreover, seeing that Ye Chen was asking about her situation, it was obvious that he intended to help her, which of course dispelled all of Nie Ningnin’s worries.
Nie Ningnin hastily said to Ye Chen, "After being transported to the Nine Suns Ancient Land, I happened to land in a place of opportunity and found a precious treasure. Sohow, those five people discovered my treasure and have been chasing to take it... Fortunately, I have this Divine Power Amulet given to by my great-uncle, or they would have succeeded!"
"Ye Chen, the Divine Power in this amulet is almost depleted. If I hadn’t run into you, I probably wouldn’t have been able to hold on much longer!"
Nie Ningnin’s words quickly inford Ye Chen of the reason she was being pursued.
It really was a case of soone trying to kill and steal a treasure!
As Ye Chen was inquiring from Nie Ningnin, the five lights from the void also stopped in the heavens, revealing their figures.
The figures within these five lights were five martial artists wearing brownish-yellow robes, all at the rank of Nine Tribulations True God.
These five dressed in the sa attire clearly ca from the sa place.
Seeing that Nie Ningnin had taken refuge by Ye Chen’s side, they scanned Ye Chen’s face and then their gaze moved toward Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen.
Upon sensing the aura of Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen, the five brow-beaten figures twitched.
However, upon clearly seeing the patterns on the garnts of Dongfang Xuanyi and Wang Chen, they seed to recall sothing and, with a sneer, shifted their gaze away.
Then all five looked squarely at Ye Chen and Nie Ningnin, with one speaking forthrightly, "The item in this girl’s possession is coveted by our ’Golden Light God City’. It would be best for you all to not interfere. Otherwise, don’t bla us for being rude."
