When Li Yue saw Ye Yuan ignore him, he said with an unhappy look, "Hey, brat, this empyrean is talking to you. Didn't you hear?"
Ye Yuan could not be bothered to care about him and turned to Lin Changqing and said, "Follow me!"
Finished saying, Ye Yuan stepped onto the void and arrived above the river.
Lin Changqing was taken aback when he heard that, his face revealing a look of struggle.
But very soon, he clenched his jaws and followed after.
Li Yue was unhappy to begin with. Seeing this scene, he sneered coldly and said, "Zheng Yufeng, why did your Fallen Maple Bodhidharma bring a fool over? He wouldn't want to enter the Blackflame Cave just like this, right? The devilish energy there, if there isn't our restriction, it's sufficient to devour Empyrean Realm martial artists! This guy is seeking death!"
Zheng Yufeng also had a look of puzzlement and yelled in a clear voice, "Brother Ye, this devilish energy is extremely formidable and has already devoured many Empyrean powerhouses!"
Ye Yuan did not even turn his head back and said coolly, "I'll go in and take a look first. You guys just hurry up!"
Li Yue laughed loudly when he heard that and said, "Foolish thing! If you can enter, this empyrean will chop my head off for you to kick as a ball!"
Just as he was talking, Ye Yuan already arrived at the Blackflame Cave's entrance.
Endless devilish energy rushed toward him and Lin Changqing frenziedly.
Lin Changqing jumped in fright and hurriedly revolved his cultivation method, wanting to resist the devilish energy.
Right at this time, Ye Yuan's Chaos Heavenspan Canon activated. The devilish energy poured into his body crazily.
When the Lin Changqing following behind saw this scene, his eyes became wide saucers.
Li Yue opened his mouth wide, virtually able to stuff a fist in.
Chapter 2184 - Abyss Monsters' Strength!
"This … This guy is actually absorbing devilish energy!"
"He absorbed so much in one go and actually didn't blow up and die!"
"Could it be that his body is forged from meteoric iron?"
… …
Under the watchful gazes of the people, Ye Yuan brought Lin Changqing and slowly walked into the Blackflame Cave.
That appearance was like strolling in his own backyard.
The eyeballs of those Empyrean powerhouses all stared widely.
Devilish energy was extremely berserk in nature. Forget about absorbing like Ye Yuan; just absorbing a trace in, the consequences would be too ghastly to imagine too.
When Zheng Yufeng saw this appearance, he could not help having a bitter smile on his face.
Looking at Li Yue again, he said with a snicker, "Li Yue, what were you saying just now?"
Li Yu abruptly woke up and said with a look of embarrassment, "Ah? Oh, n-nothing! I didn't say anything!"
Seemingly afraid of everyone continuing to ask, he said ferociously.
At this time, someone suggested, "This matter brooks no delay. We'd better hurry up and seal these devilish energies and enter the Blackflame Cave!"
Everyone naturally did not have objections.
With seven major forces, more than 40 middle-stage Empyrean Realm powerhouses took action.
How shocking was this commotion?
Everyone joined hands and laid down an enchantment, temporarily partitioning off the devilish energy.
Bustling around for roughly two hours, the enchantment was finally completed.
Only then did the group of Empyreans enter Blackflame Cave.
Upon entering Blackflame Cave, this was totally different from the outside world's heaven and earth.
This place had black smoke coiling around, dim without light, looking grim and terrifying.
Li Yue and everyone had naturally never seen before such a place.
"What kind of damn place is this?" Li Yue said with a frown.
Zheng Yufeng also had a solemn look as he said, "Don't know, but … it's definitely not a good place. Everybody, be more careful!"
"This place is the abyss monsters' world!"
At this time, a voice sounded out. Two figures slowly walked over from afar. It was precisely Ye Yuan two people.
Behind Ye Yuan, Lin Changqing's eyes never left Ye Yuan's body, his gaze full of terror.
"Abyss monster? What the hell is that?" Li Yue said in confusion.
The other Empyreans were also at a loss. Clearly, they had not heard of abyss monsters before.
Ye Yuan said coolly, "It's an extremely powerful race. All in all, everyone, just be more careful."
Li Yue said with a disdainful look, "Extremely powerful race? Huhu, how powerful can it be? This Heavenspan World is ruled by our human race! Even the demon race and fiend race also have to stand by the side!"
Another Empyrean said, "Huhu, this little brother is also exaggerating things to raise an alarm! There are so many of us middle-stage Empyrean Realm powerhouses here. Even if a late-stage Empyrean came, we might also not be without the strength to fight. What's there to be scared of?"
As an Empyrean, each person had their own pride.
Let alone that here were the proud heaven's chosen of seven great Heavenly Emperor Bodhimandas, each and every one of them having numerous trump cards. Why would they mind some abyss monsters?
Ye Yuan's few words, they did not take it to heart at all.
Li Yue's thinking actually also represented the thoughts of the vast majority of the Empyreans.
Not that they did not know that this place was dangerous, but that they were very confident in their own strength.
After all, those who came before were all some initial-stage Empyrean Realm disciples. Furthermore, the numbers were also far from as many as this time.
"Is that so? Then let's go!" Ye Yuan showed neither approval nor disapproval. He turned around and advanced.
Li Yue's mouth curled, and he said unhappily, "What a c.o.c.ky kid!"
The party headed towards the depths when everyone's faces suddenly became fascinating.
Along the way, there were the corpses of black monsters strewn all over the ground.
The auras of these monsters were all very powerful. The vast majority of them were at the True God Realm. There were also quite a few at the Empyrean Realm.
These monsters had clearly just died not long, but they all had a common characteristic.
There was a large hole opened up in their heads!
Then, who killed these monsters?
As plain as day!
Everyone's gazes all looked toward Ye Yuan.
Apart from this brat, who else could there be?
Everyone was secretly surprised in their hearts, in merely less than two hour's time from start to end, this kid actually killed so many abyss monsters?
But Li Yue smiled coldly and said, "A Second Firmament Empyrean can kill so many monsters. So how strong can these monsters be? Heh heh, this brat wants to stand in the limelight and intentionally said these monsters to be very strong! In my view, it's merely thus!"
Another Empyrean also nodded and said, "Killing so many in one go, these monsters' strength, they are likely even inferior to ordinary same rank humans. But the numbers of these monsters are too many, we'd best be more careful."
The group of Empyreans all nodded, the number of these monsters was indeed a little too many.
But looking at this, Ye Yuan's strength was still pretty good. It was just that no one was willing to admit it, that was all.
Lin Changqing opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he did not say it out in the end.
Ye Yuan also could not be bothered to dispute anything. His attention was placed on the terrain.
He was searching for the scene when Li-er went missing according to Zhuo Yuanzhi's memories.
Roughly more than an hour's journey, the dead bodies on the ground gradually lessened.
Very clearly, this place was already the limits where Ye Yuan could scout.
/>
Ye Yuan secretly went on alert. The abyss monsters in the outer regions were mostly not strong. But the deeper in, the strength of the abyss monsters gradually grew stronger.
"Roar, roar, roar!"
Finally, a group of abyss monsters of varying shapes and sizes dashed out, pouncing toward this group of people frenziedly.
These abyss monsters were extremely ferocious, their strength also extremely strong. There was quite a number of them that were Third Firmament Empyrean existences.
Li Yue just laughed coldly and said with disdain, "A bunch of trash! This bit of strength and they also dare to come up and court death! Truly a bunch of foolish things!"
Done talking, his finger pointed lightly. An incomparably swift and fierce gust of air struck one of the leopard-shaped abyss monsters.
Bang!
That abyss monster cried out strangely and rolled a few times on the ground, slipping away with a scamper.
Clearly, he realized Li Yue's power.
But Li Yue's expression changed. His gaze revealed a solemn look.
He was a Sixth Firmament Empyrean mighty expert. That finger just now, even if a Fourth Firmament Empyrean took it, it would also be serious injuries if not death!
But this abyss monster actually slipped away completely fine.
These monsters were actually so strong?
When he looked toward his companions around him again, he discovered that those Fourth Firmament Empyrean human martial artists were actually evenly matched in strength with those Third Firmament Empyrean abyss monsters!
A wave of cold air rose up in Li Yue's heart.
At the same time, it also rose up in everyone's hearts.
Only when they truly fought did they know how powerful these abyss monsters' strength was!
A Third Firmament Empyrean forcefully contending with a Fourth Firmament Empyrean?
These abyss monsters could actually jump realms to face the enemy!
Jumping realms to battle in Empyrean Realm, furthermore, they were even elites among human martial artists.
This scene simply subverted these Empyreans' understanding!
"Kill!" The few leaders' faces fell, and they took action and made a move.
With Fifth Firmament and Sixth Firmament Empyrean powerhouses making a move, the show in power was different now.
In an instant, those abyss monsters sustained casualties and retreated one after another.
But the expressions of these Empyreans became incomparably solemn.
At this time, somebody looked at Ye Yuan again and could not help s.u.c.k.i.n.g in a cold breath!
Chapter 2185 - Want to Die or Live
Only then did everyone realize what kind of concept Ye Yuan exterminating hundreds of abyss monsters in an hour was.
Among these hundreds of abyss monsters, there were even many that were Empyrean level.
If looking at the situation of the fight just now, even a First Firmament Empyrean monster could also forcefully contend with a Second Firmament Empyrean existence.
Under the corroboration of the two, just what kind of inconceivable thing had Ye Yuan done?
More importantly, he only used two hours!
These Fourth Firmament Empyreans weighed themselves over, if they fought alone, it would absolutely be a dogfight, taking a very long time.
Just how strong was this brat's strength?
Previously, they all did not pay attention to the look in Lin Changqing's eyes at all.
But now, they finally understood!
This kid must have seen something remarkable.
"Changqing, what in the world did you see?" Zheng Yufeng pulled Lin Changqing to one side and asked softly.
Even if so long had passed, Lin Changqing was still in the midst of shock.
Prior to this, he did not know how strong Ye Yuan was.
But when he witnessed Ye Yuan butchering these abyss monsters, he finally understood that he and Ye Yuan were already people from completely different worlds!
"A massacre! A complete massacre! Those Second Firmament Empyrean abyss monsters couldn't last one exchange under his hands at all! He only needed one punch to annihilate the other party!" Lin Changqing said.
Ye Yuan could annihilate a Second Firmament Empyrean abyss monster with one punch, wanting to kill him was clearly just a matter of snapping a finger.
Just what kind of freak did he provoke?
No wonder Junior Apprentice Sister Mengli had always maintained a distance from him. No wonder even though he was so outstanding, Junior Apprentice Sister Mengli had always been aloof and indifferent.
It turned out that she actually had such a monstrous lover!
With such a man, how could he still enter her eyes?
Genius?
This term was a pile of dog shit in front of Ye Yuan!
Zheng Yufeng's pupils constricted and he cried out in surprise, "Massacre? Doesn't that mean that he has at least peak Third Firmament Empyrean combat strength?"
But Lin Changqing shook his head and said, "I suspect that it's more than that!"
"Hiss!"
Everyone s.u.c.k.e.d in a cold breath.
No wonder this guy was so arrogant! He really had the capital to be arrogant!
At this time, no one treated Ye Yuan as a junior anymore.
Being able to exterminate so many abyss monsters with his power alone, it would also absolutely not be as effortless as Li Yue they all, these Sixth Firmament Empyreans.
Li Yue's gaze glimmered slightly, and he said in a solemn voice, "Why would these monsters be so strong, it's completely illogical! No wonder the Empyrean Realm martial artists that entered this place before, none of them returned!"
Zheng Yufeng nodded and said, "What Brother Ye said earlier is right. Our mission has to be done cautiously. If the matter can't be accomplished, we must withdraw straight away."
Actually, everyone already somewhat wanted to beat a retreat.
But there was no harvest until now. They could not give an account after returning to their respective factions either, so they could only toughen their scalps and carry on walking.
However, what surprised everyone was that the journey that followed was unexpectedly calm. There were actually no abyss monsters coming to attack them again.
But it was precisely because of this that the uneasiness in everyone's hearts grew stronger.
Li Ye's heart was somewhat racing as he asked, Ye Yuan, "Boy, have you seen these monsters in the past before?"
Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Seen before!"
"Just what are these monsters? Also, where have you seen these monsters before?" Li Yue asked.
Ye Yuan said coolly, "No comments."
"You!" Li Yue could not help choking when he heard that and said angrily, "C.o.c.ky for what? You punk, not only have you seen these monsters before, you can even absorb devilish energy! In my view, you're definitely together with the monsters!"
The moment these words came out, the group of Empyreans involuntarily pulled apart some distance from Ye Yuan.
Indeed, Li Yue's random guess made everyone give rise to suspicion in their hearts.
Ye Yuan was too peculiar!
When Li Yue saw that he isolated Ye Yuan with one sentence, he could not help feeling smug in his heart.
Who knew that Ye Yuan simply ignored him and walked forward without consulting anyone.
Li Yu was thoroughly infuriated by Ye Yuan's action of overlooking.
"Brat, this empyrean is talking to you. Didn't you hear?" Li Yue said in a great rage.
Ye Yuan still ignored him. How could he know that Ye Yuan was currently not in the mood to play this sort of game with him at all?
All of his thoughts were placed on looking for Li-er.
Regarding the clues and inklings around, Ye Yuan would not let any of it go.
It was just too bad that up until now, Ye Yuan did not discover any situation.
Under his rage, Li Yue's aura erupted, and he was abo
ut to make a move against Ye Yuan.
But right at this time, a streak of black light flashed past in the dark night!
Bang!
The place where Ye Yuan was standing actually had a large pit blasted out.
Everyone's expression changed. They saw an abyss monster standing at the place where Ye Yuan stood previously.
While Ye Yuan's figure was already gone.
Could it be that … Ye Yuan was killed just like that?
However, they did not have time to think too much. Because a large group of abyss monsters suddenly scurried out around them!
There were as many as several dozen!
Furthermore, the aura of each one was very strong, they were actually all middle-stage Empyrean Realm strength!
The expressions of the group of Empyreans changed wildly.
They were surrounded!
A despairing mood spread among the Empyreans.
These were all middle-stage Empyrean Realm abyss monsters. Judging from the situation that they encountered previously, they did not have the slightest chance of victory at all.
"You guys came right on time. Let me ask you. Have you all seen this human female before?"
Suddenly, a figure flashed at the top of a tree, Ye Yuan condensed Yue Mengli's image with divine essence.
But his words were asked at the abyss monster who ambushed him previously with a divine soul brand.
He had also asked before those Empyrean level abyss monsters previously, but those abyss monsters did not know at all.
Now, encountering these stronger abyss monsters, Ye Yuan asked once more.
"Hahaha … human brat, why should this empyrean answer your question? Become this empyrean's snack obediently, if this empyrean is happy, maybe I'll tell you!" That Sixth Firmament Empyrean powerful existence said with a loud laugh.
This abyss monster's aura was the strongest. Clearly, it was the leader of this group of abyss monsters.
Sixth Firmament Empyrean could virtually sweep across the Empyrean powerhouses present!
"This punk actually didn't die!" Li Yue said in shock.
He knew how terrifying that strike earlier was. Furthermore, it was even a sneak attack.
If it were him, he also did not have absolute confidence in avoiding.
