This made him involuntarily heighten his vigilance more.
The last time, Zhuge Qingxuan left together with Kanuo. It was hard to guarantee that there would be no relationship between these two people.
The Holy City kept the troops ready but made no movements until now, but did not lock the city with the grand array either. This in itself indicated many problems.
Looked like Zhuge Qingxuan might have very likely colluded together with the fiend race.
But Ye Yuan could not figure out why Old Man Han showed up here. Could it be that he also had ties with the fiend race?
Recalling the incident that happened in the Immemorial Medicine Garden back then, Ye Yuan felt that it really was possible.
Thinking this through, Ye Yuan sneered coldly in his heart to no end.
This Kanuo was truly playing a massive game of chess!
In a twinkle, an hour passed. According to those dozen over people’s foot strength, they should have long returned.
But there was no word from anyone!
At this time, Zhuge Qingxuan stood up once more and randomly selected over ten people again.
“The few of you, go up the mountain!” Zhuge Qingxuan’s voice did not carry the slightest trace of emotion.
Every since almost dying under Ye Yuan’s hands the last time, the foul and evil-foreboding air on Zhuge Qingxuan’s body became even heavier.
These people’s lives, he did not take it to heart at all.
A look of despair appeared on those dozen over people’s faces. They knew that this departure would likely have little chance of coming out alive.
And among these people, as luck would have it, there was that fake Ye Yuan’s company of four.
“Y-Your Excellency! I-I beg you, save this lowly one! I know that … in this place, only you can save us!” said the fake Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan was slightly surprised. This guy actually still dared to come and find him.
“That’s the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King. I can’t help you,” Ye Yuan said coolly.
Fake Ye Yuan gritted his teeth and transmitted to Ye Yuan, “Your Excellency, I know that impersonating you, it’s my fault! I’m not begging you to save me, I’m only begging you to save my three siblings! If … If you don’t agree, I’ll tell the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King your true identity!”
Ye Yuan slightly revealed an odd look. This guy actually guessed his identity.
However, he immediately laughed in spite of himself.
This guy actually even threatened him.
“Huhu, it’s also not impossible to save them, but you … have to go in!” Ye Yuan said coolly.
Fake Ye Yuan nodded his head and said, “Rest assured, Your Excellency. As long as you’re willing to save them, Ye Sheng is willing to die!”
Ye Yuan gave him a deep look. Only now did he know that his real name was called Ye Sheng.
“I’ll give you all three breaths of time. Still don’t move, bear the consequences yourselves!” That cold voice of Zhuge Qingxuan’s coincidentally sounded out at this time.
Ye Yuan suddenly got up and said to Zhuge Qingxuan with cupped fists, “Your Excellency, the four of us siblings are willing to substitute the three of them to go up the mountain and scout the path.”
While talking, Ye Yuan pointed at Ye Sheng’s three siblings.
This action of Ye Yuan’s made Zhuge Qingxuan very surprised.
This going up the mountain was clearly a dead end. There was actually still someone who took the initiative to volunteer.
When Ye Sheng heard Ye Yuan’s words, he was immediately wildly elated in his heart.
He did not expect that Ye Yuan actually used this kind of method to save his brothers.
With Ye Yuan around, his chances of survival would greatly increase.
Zhuge Qingxuan sized Ye Yuan up, feeling that this boy was somewhat peculiar.
But no matter how he looked, he could not see through Ye Yuan’s disguise.
His disguising art was a complementing technique in the Black Tortoise Treasure Body Divine Art. It could let people change to a different appearance by altering the entire body’s muscles.
He imparted this cultivation method to White Light the three of them. The three of them looked rather similar right now, just like brothers and sisters.
In addition to Ye Yuan’s Essence Sealing Pill, even if he was the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King, he absolutely could not see through as well.
He looked left and right, and also could not see through any flaws. Straight away, he waved his hand impatiently and said, “Go on, go!”
Ye Yuan was just about to move when Old Man Han suddenly opened his mouth and said, “Young man, going up the mountain here is nine chances to die and one chance to live. Why did you take the initiative to go up the mountain?”
Finished talking, Old Man Han’s gaze stared at Ye Yuan heatedly, wanting to see how he would answer.
But Ye Yuan did not fear in the slightest. Bowing his body and greeting, he said, “The Heaven Stabilizing Divine King is fully-deserving of being the Divine Realm’s number one. This lowly one has always admired greatly. To be able to serve the Heaven Stabilizing Divine King is this lowly one’s honor! Furthermore, this lowly one has no other strong points but a body of tough flesh. If talking about the possibility of survival, this lowly one still has that tiny hint of assurance.”
Disregarding others, Zhuge Qingxuan was a sucker for this!
Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, that iceberg-like face of his actually had some additional smugness.
“Alright, alright, don’t talk rubbish anymore! Go up the mountain!” Zhuge Qingxuan said impatiently.
Ye Sheng bid farewell with his siblings and made them not enter deep inside, and to wait for him outside. Then, he went up the mountain together with Ye Yuan’s company of four.
When the few silhouettes disappeared, Ye Sheng gave a deep bow toward Ye Yuan and said, “Thank you very much, Your Excellency, for taking action and saving. This lowly one will definitely repay with death even by gladly dashing my brains against the ground! Also, this lowly one offended Your Excellency! Your Excellency, please punish!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “It was you who saved them, not me.”
Ye Sheng could not help freezing when he heard that and said, “Your Excellency’s meaning is …”
“Although you carried out unscrupulous deeds, making people despise you, your feelings toward your brothers and sister are not fake. If you threatened me to save only you alone, even risking a great battle with Zhuge Qingxuan, I won’t save them. Moreover, it’s still unknown who would die at whose hands if I have a battle with him!” Ye Yuan’s words exuded powerful confidence.
His sword intent breaking through, the Evil Extermination Sword Formula also broke through to the second level already, and was able to unleash 50% of the Evil Extermination Divine Sword’s power!
If he was to really battle with Zhuge Qingxuan again, Ye Yuan definitely did not fear him.
It was just that Old Man Han concealed his abilities too deeply, making him somewhat apprehensive.
Before entering deep into the Godsfall Mountain Range, he was unwilling to complicate matters; that was all.
Ye Sheng sucked in a deep breath, not expecting that the reason Ye Yuan agreed was actually this!
“No matter what, Ye Sheng’s life is my lord!” Ye Sheng bowed deeply again.
But Ye Yuan smiled and said, “I’m very curious though. How did you know my identity?”

“Actually, I’m milord’s fan! Ever since seeing Your Excellency’s powerful strength at the dragon clan, this lowly one was deeply convinced by Your Excellency,” Ye Sheng said.
Turned out, when the Heaven’s Secret Tower published the Ten Great Divine Kings, Ye Sheng was also one of the challengers.
Of course, after he reached the dragon clan, he discovered tha
t he was batting above his grade.
But when he witnessed Ye Yuan’s strength, he completely became Ye Yuan’s firm supporter.
For this, he spent a huge price and bought a lot of data on Ye Yuan from the Heaven’s Secret Tower, and understood Ye Yuan very well.
He knew that not only was Ye Yuan’s concept comprehension abnormally high, his body refinement aspect did not pale in comparison to the essence energy realm in the least bit.
Furthermore, apart from Yue Mengli by Ye Yuan’s side, there was even a little girl whose strength was not weak. This little girl did not appear much by Ye Yuan’s side, but Ye Yuan seemed to regard her with great importance.
All in all, this unfamiliar young man before his eyes, there was at least 50-60% certainty that it was Ye Yuan.
Of course, he did not dare to be completely sure either. But just now, under that kind of situation, he had no choice but to take a risk.
As a result, he succeeded.
“Your Excellency, what should we … do now?” Ye Sheng said rather hesitantly.
There were more than a dozen people who came along with them. But from Ye Yuan, the five of them, there were still around ten.
They saw Ye Sheng’s attitude and also guessed that Ye Yuan was a remarkable great figure, all revealing hopeful looks.
“What else can we do? Of course it’s going up the mountain to take a look. Zhuge Qingxuan said that this place is called Broken Soul Ridge. It looks like the place is really as its name suggests!” Ye Yuan said with a vicissitude of emotion.
But to the current Ye Yuan, things in this Divine Realm that could make him wary were really not many.
The group of people followed along the steep mountain road and climbed up, but they did not discover anything strange.
However, it was precisely this calmness that gave everyone goosebumps.
“Your Excellency, why … why do I feel amiss?” Ye Sheng swallowed his saliva and said.
“Of course it’s not right, if it was right, Zhuge Qingxuan would not let us come up either,” Ye Yuan said without a care.
That calmness and composure of Ye Yuan’s also affected everyone, making their hearts calm down.
Traveling not for long, densely packed white cloth suddenly appeared ahead.
Looking over closely, it was actually countless Soul Beckoning Streamers!
On that rugged mountain path, over a dozen figures collapsed on the ground, there was no sound.
“It’s them! It’s that batch of people who came previously!” Someone suddenly cried out.
“This … This place is too terrifying! We … We’d best return first!” Another person’s face turned pale as he suggested.
Ye Yuan’s brows furrowed slightly, and he said coolly, “It’s already too late.”
Seeing that person’s puzzled expression, Ye Yuan added: “You turn around and look.”
That person turned his head and looked, his face becoming even paler.
“This … What’s going on?”
The path when they came actually completely disappeared.
On both sides of the path were similarly densely crowds of Soul Beckoning Streamers. How was there still a hint of the look of a mountain path?
Unknowingly, they actually fell into the encirclement of the Soul Beckoning Streamers.
“Looks like we fell into an overlapping space. Unknowingly, we barged into an incredible place!” Ye Yuan said indifferently.
He knew that this place was not some illusionary realm, but actual space!
If it were an illusionary realm, Ye Yuan would have long seen through it with a glance, and would not wait until now.
Actually, Ye Yuan himself was very surprised too. He got caught in this space and was actually totally clueless.
Furthermore, it looks like this space was easy to enter, but wanting to go out was probably not easy.
“Y-Your Excellency, this … What to do here?” asked another divine king powerhouse and was even stammering when talking.
Those few people ahead did not have any movements at all. In all probability, they encountered a mishap.
When they saw such a situation, how could they not be afraid?
After all, those dozen over people who entered before, their strengths were not weaker than them.
“Looks like this space is easy to enter, hard to leave. Since there’s no way to turn around, then there’s only moving forward,” Ye Yuan said coolly.
“But, but they …”
Ye Yuan gave him an indifferent glance and said, “If you have other methods, this young master naturally won’t stop you either.”
One sentence made him wither.
This place was clearly very strange. Ye Yuan was already their only reliance.
Done talking, Ye Yuan did not care about him either and slowly walked in the direction of the previous group of people.
The other people had no choice and could only keep up.
Ye Yuan stretched his hand out and flicked. Over a dozen strands of thin threads made up of essence energy flew towards those dozen over people.
When everyone saw this scene, their gazes all turned intent, being surprised by Ye Yuan’s exquisite essence energy control.
There was no lack of Divine King powerhouses among them. But nobody could do it to Ye Yuan’s level.
After several breaths, Ye Yuan shook his head and said, “All dead! Their bodies are completely unscathed, but it’s already an empty shell. Their divine souls were all taken away by someone. There are no signs of fighting here, looks like they didn’t have the strength to retaliate at all.”
The moment these words came out, everyone’s expression turned fearful.
This place was indeed sinister!
“Your Excellency, I remember that there were 17 people in the first group that came. But there are only 15 people here. Seems like there are two missing,” Ye Sheng said.
Ye Sheng knew Ye Yuan’s background and was not flustered like the others.
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “Those two people were the strongest in the first group of people. Barring no accidents, we should be able to see their dead bodies ahead.”
At this time, a strange breeze blew past, stirring up those Soul Beckoning Streamers.
“Woo! Woo!”
Immediately, a ghostly sobbing voice sounded out all around.
Ye Yuan’s brows furrowed and he said solemnly, “Close off your six senses, don’t listen to this voice!”
Everyone’s expression turned fearful, and they hurriedly shut their six sense tightly, not daring to listen to this ghostly weeping sound.
This ghostly sobbing voice had the effect of absorbing the soul. Ye Yuan virtually detected it straight away. Hence, that was why he voiced out to warn.
He himself did not care in the least bit though. In this world, it was probably very hard to find something that was able to absorb his divine soul away.
“Go!” Ye Yuan said solemnly.
The group of people continued walking forward. But, along with going in deeper and deeper, that ferocious ghostly sobbing voice became increasingly terrifying.
In the end, it actually became a fierce cry.
That scream was incomparably ear-piercing.
Countless Soul Beckoning Streamers emitted a faint purple light, turning the entire stretch of space even more bizarre.
“H-Help!” A Divine King powerhouse seemed to have his throat clutched and shouted vigorously.
Ye Yuan’s brows furrowed and discovered that even though these people shut their six senses tightly, their divine souls were still gradually dragged out of the body.
Even though he was desperately struggling, it was still in vain.
Not just him, the rest were similarly like so!
Apart from Yue Mengli, even White Light and Lu-er actually showed signs of being unable to hold on.
Yue Mengli was of the Innate Battle Soul Physique. Half of her divine soul had already long fused into one entity. Her vitality was
extremely strong to begin with.
Such means were actually unshakable.
It was just that Lu-er could not hang on anymore. The expression on her face was very painful. Clearly, she already could not quite endure any longer.
“Y-Young Master!” Lu-er said weakly.
Chapter 1226 - Drawing on the Ground to Serve as a Prison

“Lin!”
Ye Yuan formed a hand seal, his voice like a great bell.
At the same time, Ye Yuan’s powerful vitality surged toward the sky, and he forcefully quelled those ghostly wailing voices!
With the ‘Lin’ character coming out of the mouth, a grand aura instantly spread out.
Those wailing voices seemed to have seen their jinx and immediately did not dare to approach Ye Yuan and the rest anymore.
Those divine souls that were originally being dragged out also immediately returned into their bodies.
Even so, each one of them was deathly pale, as if they had a serious illness.
However, their faces all revealed a look of lingering fear; their gazes when they looked at Ye Yuan were filled with gratitude.
If not for Ye Yuan, they would already be like the first batch of people at this time, becoming corpses without a divine soul.
Lu-er’s complexion was very bad as well. Ye Yuan asked concernedly, “Lu-er, are you alright?”
“I’m alright. Thank you, Young Master,” Lu-er shook her head and said.
But Ye Yuan’s face turned cold, and he said, “If a tiger doesn’t demonstrate its might, do you really take this young master to be a sickly cat?”
These ghosts were so arrogant to actually hurt Lu-er. It made Ye Yuan become genuinely angry.
“Fiery, burn all of these damn things for me! This young master wants to see just what kind of ghost or monster there are, playing tricks over here!” Ye Yuan said with a cold shout.
Hearing that icy tone of Ye Yuan, the others could not help shuddering.
These Soul Beckoning Streamers were incomparably bizarre. It was already not bad for them to be able to escape with their lives.
But this lord actually wanted to burn them all!
Fiery’s figure appeared, his hands kneading seals. At once, a surge of terrifying power of flames spread out.
