Chapter 1043: Chapter 992: Encounter and Escape

However, the hesitation was extremely brief, and soon Ye Chen made a decision.

“Let’s go down and investigate!”

“Let’s see what’s beneath this mysterious cave entrance?”

Upon suddenly discovering this mysterious cave entrance, especially one hidden within the domain of the ’Demon Polluted Beasts,’ Ye Chen was naturally filled with curiosity about what was inside.

After all, this was the domain left behind by the formidable ’Lord Yan,’ even more powerful than the Divine Master.

If the area beneath this cave is related to some secrets left by ’Lord Yan,’ there might be infinitely precious opportunities within.

If this cave is not left by ’Lord Yan’ but is actually related to the ’Demon Polluted Beasts,’ Ye Chen would want to investigate further.

“There’s not much time left on the two-hour task clock.”

“Better hurry and investigate.”

“Although my Divine Sense can’t detect the bottom of this cave, with my flying speed, I have enough time to delve quite far.”

No sooner said than done.

With determination set, Ye Chen no longer hesitated, and with a “whoosh,” he directly flew into this mysterious cave entrance.

In an instant, Ye Chen completely vanished from the surface.

…

Viewing area.

When Ye Chen transformed the infusion of Divine Light from a defensive state to an offensive state and slaughtered the first four-star Sovereign-level Demon Polluted Beast, all the members of the Extreme Spirit Clan in the viewing area stood up in complete shock.

“Four-star Sovereign-level Demon Polluted Beast? Slain?”

The Extreme Spirit Clan members were utterly astounded!

They knew that at best, Ye Chen’s combat power could only slay a two-star Sovereign-level Demon Polluted Beast. Previously, Ye Chen couldn’t handle a three-star Sovereign-level Demon Polluted Beast, proving everything.

Yet the Extreme Spirit Clan members watching the selection process couldn’t imagine that shortly after, Ye Chen’s power seemed to increase dramatically, even slaying a four-star Sovereign-level Demon Polluted Beast.

How could this not surprise them?

And when Ye Chen used the golden infusion of Divine Light’s attack power to destroy five-star and six-star Sovereign-level high-grade Demon Polluted Beasts, even clearing all high-grade Demon Polluted Beasts in one of the five sections of upper-level Demon Polluted Beast regions, the Extreme Spirit Clan members watching were no longer just amazed—they were astounded, their mouths agape!

Ye Chen encountered a Demon Polluted Beast and killed it as if he were a god of death, a scene that the Extreme Spirit Clan members had never witnessed before!

Even the Extreme Spirit Clan’s nine-star Sovereign, who once ventured into the upper-level Demon Polluted Beast realms to eliminate the beasts within, couldn’t manage this speed of elimination!

“It’s that golden infusion of Divine Light!”

Some members of the Extreme Spirit Clan noticed the anomaly and yelled out loudly.

“The mysterious Upper God King ’Jiang Li’ was able to sweep away all Demon Polluted Beasts, especially slaying those high-level ones he couldn’t handle before, due to the ’superior Sovereign-level’ golden infusion of Divine Light he obtained earlier in the third selection area!”

“That golden infusion of Divine Light transformed from a defensive state to an offensive state in the hands of the Upper God King.”

“Precisely because of its transcendent Sovereign-level attack power, he could swiftly slay all encountered high-grade Demon Polluted Beasts!”

As these Extreme Spirit Clan members exclaimed at the discovery, others quickly realized the truth.

However, even realizing that Ye Chen used the golden infusion of Divine Light to slay high-grade Demon Polluted Beasts, these members were no less surprised.

After all, the ability to transform the infusion of Divine Light from a defensive to an offensive state was something that none of the Extreme Spirit Clan members could achieve!

“Could it be that this transformation is due to the Upper God King absorbing the ’superior Sovereign-level’ infusion of Divine Light?” countless Extreme Spirit Clan members speculated.

But they hadn’t speculated for long when an even more astonishing event unfolded before them.

When Ye Chen discovered that mysterious cave entrance, the Extreme Spirit Clan members watching the selection process through the viewing screen also saw this cave entrance.

“Cave entrance?”

Like Ye Chen, who was extremely surprised upon seeing the entrance, the Extreme Spirit Clan members also displayed expressions of utter surprise.

“How could an entrance appear in the upper-level Demon Polluted Beasts’ realm?!”

“We’ve never seen this entrance in any of the five upper-level Demon Polluted Beasts’ realms before!”

“Could this entrance be newly appeared?”

Considering this possibility, the Extreme Spirit Clan members watching the selection process were suddenly filled with a shiver.

If this cave entrance has newly appeared, there is only one possibility; it was made by the Demonic Filth Beast within this realm!

“I am sure, this cave entrance was definitely not here in the upper realm before!”

“This cave entrance is absolutely not left over from the days of ’Lord Yan’!”

“Could it be that this cave entrance was truly dug out by the Demonic Filth Beast?!”

“But this realm was crafted by ’Lord Yan’ and has protective Prohibitions; how could mere Demonic Filth Beasts possibly dig a secret tunnel here?”

“Where does this secret tunnel lead?”

Just as all the Spirit Clan members were bewildered, someone suddenly thought of something and cried out loudly.

“Have you all noticed? The Upper God King ’Jiang Li’ swept through all realms, eliminating high-level Demonic Filth Beasts. He killed every one he encountered, but all he killed were Six Stars Sovereign and below; he didn’t come across a single Seven Stars Sovereign, Eight Stars Sovereign, or Nine Stars Sovereign Demonic Filth Beast!”

“Earlier, when he flew over the five upper realms, he didn’t even encounter Seven Stars, Eight Stars, or Nine Stars Sovereign Demonic Filth Beasts!”

“Even though the probability of Nine Stars Sovereign level Demonic Filth Beasts appearing in the five upper realms is very low, they are usually killed by our clan’s strong fighters upon emergence. Still, there shouldn’t be none of the Seven Stars Sovereign, Eight Stars Sovereign Demonic Filth Beasts at all!”

“Could it be that these Seven Stars Sovereign, Eight Stars Sovereign, even Nine Stars Sovereign Demonic Filth Beasts have all entered that secret tunnel, which is why they’ve disappeared from the five realms?!”

Thinking of this possibility, all the Spirit Clan members were terrified.

If this really happened, and if the Seven Stars Sovereign, Eight Stars Sovereign even Nine Stars Sovereign Demonic Filth Beasts managed to escape from the five realms, it would bring a tremendous threat to the entire Spirit Clan!

The disaster of almost being annihilated by the Demonic Filth Beasts is something the Spirit Clan members would never forget!

In an instant, the Spirit Clan members quickly communicated with other clan members within the Spirit Sea who didn’t come to watch the selection at the Extreme Spirit Martial Land, and transmitted messages to Sovereign Lei Bo, who was responsible for the selection.

At that time, Sovereign Lei Bo, standing before the divine statue, also noticed something wrong through the Void light screen in front of him.

He hurriedly sent a message to the only Nine Stars Sovereign “Sovereign Heilun” still stationed in the clan.

Not long after Ye Chen flew into the mysterious cave entrance, “Sovereign Heilun” was the first to arrive. When “Sovereign Heilun” entered the upper realm specifically to investigate the suddenly appearing cave entrance, he was shocked to discover that as he flew deeper into the secret tunnel, the “Demon Pollution” power grew more concentrated. Ultimately, he found another exit of the secret tunnel, but with his Nine Stars Sovereign realm, he struggled to resist the Demon Pollution power at the exit and couldn’t escape successfully!

When Sovereign Heilun returned to the outside of the secret tunnel, the two-hour selection period had ended, and all the selection personnel were transported out from various Demonic Filth Beast realms.

However, Sovereign Heilun, Sovereign Lei Bo, the Spirit Clan members in the viewing area, and other Spirit Clan members who came after hearing the news, all noticed that among the Spirit Clan members transported out, the Upper God King “Jiang Li” was absent!

“You say the Upper God King ’Jiang Li’ entered the secret tunnel not long before me?” Sovereign Heilun asked the audience watching the battle.

Seeing Sovereign Lei Bo, Yin Ling’er and others nodding in agreement, Sovereign Heilun widened his eyes.

“After entering the secret tunnel, I didn’t see the Upper God King ’Jiang Li’!”

“Moreover, he hasn’t been transported out after the selection ended in the Demonic Filth Beast realm!”

“Is it possible that he vanished into thin air?! Or possibly, he managed to exit through the tunnel exit that I couldn’t?”

At this moment, even Sovereign Heilun didn’t know what had happened to Ye Chen!

…

While the Spirit Clan members in the viewing area were astonished, and as the selection period in the Demonic Filth Beast realm ended, Ye Chen was also encountering something strange.

Previously, as Ye Chen flew through the secret tunnel, the further he flew, the more he sensed the concentration of “Demon Pollution” power.

However, since Ye Chen was enveloped in Infusion of Divine Light surpassing Sovereign level, the dense Demon Pollution power couldn’t affect him.

Ye Chen continued flying through the secret tunnel without slowing, all the way to the tunnel exit.

The Demon Pollution power at the exit was extremely concentrated, but after hesitating for a moment, Ye Chen directly passed through the exit under protection of the Infusion of Divine Light.

By the time Ye Chen had been outside the exit for several dozen breaths, Sovereign Heilun arrived, so Sovereign Heilun did not see Ye Chen, who had already exited.

Upon emerging from the exit, Ye Chen realized he was in a massive mountain stream.

To Ye Chen’s surprise, upon arrival in this gigantic mountain stream, he immediately saw signs of numerous battles.

After flying within the mountain stream for a while, Ye Chen saw hundreds of Seven Stars Sovereign, Eight Stars Sovereign Demonic Filth Beasts surrounding a large group of people. Among the attacking beasts, there were even dozens of Nine Stars Sovereign Demonic Filth Beasts.

Looking towards the surrounded crowd, Ye Chen directly saw that these people were all Spirit Clan members, each one a Sovereign of the Spirit Clan!

If the Spirit Clan’s Sovereign Heilun saw Ye Chen’s current location, he would be utterly shocked, for here is precisely where the Spirit Clan Sovereigns go to train, and where they have sealed off—the “Haotian Ancient Stream!”

The ones surrounded by hundreds of high-level Demonic Filth Beasts were none other than the Spirit Clan Sovereigns who went to “Haotian Ancient Stream” to train!

None could have imagined that the newly appeared secret tunnel in the upper-level Demonic Filth Beast realm would connect to the distant “Haotian Ancient Stream”!

Moreover, high-level Demonic Filth Beasts really escaped through the secret tunnel!
