Chapter 1504: Entering the Mineral Vein
"Are we going to just wait here and helplessly watch the punk sit there inside?" West River Divine Lord could not help but comment.
The moment he said that, all the Divine Lords jolted to their senses. It was not the time for them to just stare wide-eyed.
It had not been easy for the group of them to tear open the entrance to this cosmic space; but now, a junior was reaping the benefits before their very noses. It was truly quite a joke.
"Since this punk used a Chaos Gem armor to enter this land of treasure, why can’t we? Why don’t a few of us stay here to watch him to make sure he doesn’t take any other action. The rest will go search for Chaos Gems," said Fire Cloud Divine Lord.
Creating a Chaos Gem armor seemed like the only way to pass through the energy jets.
Everyone expressed agreement towards Fire Cloud Divine Lord’s suggestion. Even Primordial Chaos Daolord acquiesced.
"In that case, I’ll stay behind. I want to watch this punk properly," said Fire Cloud Divine Lord.
Primordial Chaos Daolord shot him a cold look and said, "I’ll stay behind too."
He felt more assured staying here personally to watch Yi Yun.
"Aqua Waters Divine Lord, why don’t you stay behind too?" Sacred Horizon Divine Lord said to the purple-dressed female Divine Lord.
Aqua Waters Divine Lord nodded. The other Divine Lords returned to space to search for Chaos Gems. It was extremely difficult to find Chaos Gems on the landmass, so the best way was to return to space.
Meanwhile, Yi Yun was still focusing on his cultivation. It seemed as though he had not discovered the group’s arrival.
Sitting beside the hill, Yi Yun’s body was like a reservoir that had large amounts of nebulous Primordial Chaos gushing into it. His chest constantly rose and fell as a blurry aura emitted from his body.
The gray fog looked ethereal, but in fact, it was as heavy as a star. A grain of sand contaminated with nebulous Primordial Chaos could become extremely dense. Not only was Yi Yun’s grasp of Primordial Chaos laws improving, even his skin and skeleton were unknowingly being forged in a crucible of nebulous Primordial Chaos.
Yi Yun’s body and mind were completely immersed in the space he was in. He naturally did not care about anything else. The arrival of the Divine Lords had not affected him in any way.
At that moment, Yi Yun, who was immersed in his cultivation, suddenly sensed a voice.
The voice sounded like it came from the nebulous Primordial Chaos, but it was fleeting.
Yi Yun was taken aback. Could this be the massive spirit that he had sensed from within the mineral vein?
Yi Yun instantly turned nervous upon coming to this conjecture. If the massive spirit were to awaken, he would be in danger simply by staying where he was.
The voice sounded once again, filled with an ancient and boundless flavor. As for Yi Yun, he did not sense any ill intent from it; instead, it appeared to feel like a soft beckoning.
The Chaos Gems on his body seemed to sense the voice’s beckoning as they began to vibrate gently, as though they were urging him to meet it.
Yi Yun hesitated for a moment before standing up and walking towards the hill.
These Chaos Gems had given Yi Yun quite a bit of help. He believed that they would not harm him. If this mysterious voice or these Chaos Gems really wanted him dead, he would not be able to escape his fate even if he didn’t proceed inside.
A cave entrance appeared on the rock wall of the hill, one he didn’t notice before. Peering deep into the nether-looking cave, he sensed the massive aura emitted from within. Yi Yun stopped by the entrance for a moment before taking a deep breathe to stride forward.
"Oh? What’s that little bastard up to?"
Primordial Chaos Daolord was staring at Yi Yun intently all this while, so he immediately noticed the moment Yi Yun moved.
But no matter how he enhanced his vision, all he saw was Yi Yun stand up suddenly and walk toward the hill before vanishing.
As for how Yi Yun entered, or what sort of place he had entered, he had failed to see it clearly. The Chaos was something his vision could not penetrate.
But even if he could not make out the details, Primordial Chaos Daolord knew that Yi Yun had already entered the true core region of this zone. That hill definitely had a supreme treasure contained within.
"This punk has beat us to the draw. But that doesn’t matter. With us staying guard here, there’s definitely no way for him to escape. He will cough out as much as he took. Without strength that matches the treasure’s grade, he can forget about holding onto it. He will probably lose his life as well." Fire Cloud Divine Lord’s gaze contracted into a sliver as he sneered.
The martial world had always been this cold and ruthless since time immemorial. Just the Chaos Gem armor Yi Yun wore was enough to invite fatal trouble for him. Now that he had stepped into the treasure trove, it was equivalent to taking one step into hell.
But despite rationalizing it this way, be it Primordial Chaos Daolord or Fire Cloud Divine Lord, they ground their teeth in hate seeing Yi Yun enter the treasure trove so easily. Even if they eventually snatched away all the boons received, it was still something received second-hand through Yi Yun.
Primordial Chaos Daolord was even more perplexed. Did this Yi Yun come with a body that automatically attracts treasures? Why was he getting all the good stuff!?
Aqua Waters Divine Lord did not say a word. All she did was look at the treasure hill, her eyes flashing with a fiery-red look. She found it hard to imagine what treasure lay hidden inside the treasure hill.
Yi Yun did not care how jealous the people outside were. He stepped into the cave and saw a dark passageway ahead of him. It emitted the aura of Chaos and the surrounding walls had the stirrings of indistinguishable laws.
Yi Yun gradually walked forward. Ever since he walked in, the beckoning voice only became clearer.
As he proceeded forward in the direction of the voice, he sensed that the passageway appeared endless. As he proceeded, the passageway ahead of him suddenly became especially wide. A spacious cavern greeted his eyes.
Yi Yun revealed a look of extreme shock when he saw the cavern. He was left stunned.
He believed that this was the first time such a primeval world was being opened by others. He thought that he, Primordial Chaos Daolord, and the others were the first batch of people that came to this primeval world.
But now, Yi Yun’s belief was changed.
In the cavern in front of him, there was a tiny stone platform. Beside it was a mat.
It was unknown how long the mat had been sitting there, but it remained undamaged in any way.
Although there was no one there, Yi Yun could not help but feel like he had experienced the vicissitudes of life when he saw the stone platform and the mat.
There was a spear embedded in front of the stone platform.
The spear emitted a terrifying suppressive might. Yi Yun instantly recognized it as the Spear of Primordial Chaos! Back then in the Divine Perish Hall, the Spear of Primordial Chaos appeared like a column that held up the heavens. Here, it was shrunk to the height of a person.
Primordial Chaos Daolord and company had come to this primeval world by chasing the Spear of Primordial Chaos. He never expected the Spear of Primordial Chaos would actually be here.
"What sort of person would open up a chamber inside this mineral vein?" Yi Yun found it unbelievable.
