Nine Revolutions Star Technique

”How is this possible? How can it be?”

Watching that figure disappear in the distance, everyone burst into exclamations.

Ye Qingchen had actually caught up!

This was something no one had expected. In everyone’s mind, Ye Qingchen should have been hiding after narrowly escaping with his life due to the opening of the Human Immortal Martial Tomb. But instead, he had not only entered the Martial Tomb, but also, with an unimaginable speed, completely surpassed the members of the Chu Tian Association!

It should be noted.

Earlier, they were mocking Ye Qingchen for not daring to step into the Martial Tomb at all.

Now this scene appeared to be a public slap to their faces!

”This kid!”

Zhang Muyun, who had originally been leading the group, was now extremely sullen. If he was overtaken by others, that would be understandable, but being surpassed by a young brat? How could he endure this?

”I refuse to believe it!”

Zhang Muyun let out a roar, clenched his teeth, and took a step forward.

”Boom!”

In the next moment.

His originally slender body suddenly expanded by a third, transforming him instantly from a skinny youth into a muscular man. In that instant, he turned into a raging beast, rushing madly towards the depths of the Martial Tomb.

Chu Tian’s eyes also turned cold, and he sharply twisted a hand seal. Suddenly, his entire aura surged, blending with the rolling demonic aura of the Black Lion. In the next moment, the Black Lion let out a low roar, and rapidly chased forward!

Seeing this, the others also unleashed their Divine Techniques, unwilling to fall behind, their speed increased several times over, as they fiercely sped forward in a rapid rush.

...

Just as everyone was stunned by the previous scene, Ye Qingchen had already rushed into the depths of the black tide. Originally he thought, this black tide was the accumulated Yin Fiend tide from the Human Immortal Martial Tomb not opening for hundreds of years, and once it was fully released, it would disappear.

But who would have thought, this tide seemed to be boundless and endless.

Even Ye Qingchen, relying on his Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique and Nine Revolutions Star Technique, found it hard to maintain himself when suddenly, the black tide in front of him dissipated, and in an instant, he burst out from it.

”What is this?”

Ye Qingchen’s eyes lit up.

Before him stood a massive palace. This palace was majestic and imposing, incredibly large. It didn’t look like a tomb at all, but rather a giant imperial palace.

By simply looking up, he could see above the palace sky, studded with countless rare treasures, forming a spectacle of stars and even the sun and the moon.

”This palace is the tomb of the Southern King!”

Lu Yanwu couldn’t help but speak excitedly.

”It’s this luxurious!”

Ye Qingchen squinted his eyes slightly.

He had to admit, the opulence of this grand tomb had far exceeded his imagination. Even before entering the deeper parts of the tomb, he was already witnessing such a scene, not to mention the deeper parts of the tomb?

”Wait a minute!”

Just as Ye Qingchen was about to turn and rush toward the grand hall ahead, the Three-tailed Fox, perched on Ye Qingchen’s shoulder, suddenly spoke: ”Don’t go to that hall...”

”Why?”

Ye Qingchen raised an eyebrow.

”That hall is not the true main tomb; it’s just a decoy,” the Three-tailed Fox pointed a small paw at an inconspicuous path and said, ”If you trust me, take this path!”

Ye Qingchen looked in the direction.

He saw a path winding, unclear where it led. The air was filled with layers of mist, making it impossible to see what lay beyond.

”Alright!”

Ye Qingchen looked deeply at the Three-tailed Fox, nodded heavily, and clenched a hand seal. With True Qi Star Power sweeping through, he enveloped Lu Yanwu and the Three-tailed Fox and rushed toward the path.

Drip!

At that moment.

The space on that path rippled gently, like water droplets falling on a lake. As Ye Qingchen entered, it quickly calmed down, returning to its original state.

After a while, Zhang Muyun, Chu Tian, Lin Tianlai, and others, who followed closely behind, also broke through the black tide and rushed up, standing there.

”This is the Human Immortal Martial Tomb!”

”What a magnificent palace... This palace is even more luxurious than the palaces people lived in during their lifetime!”

”And these treasures in the sky, forming the sun, moon, and stars, are surely not ordinary items!”

”Hurry up, that kid Ye Qingchen is probably already inside the palace. Don’t let him succeed!”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Amidst the clamoring shouts, several prodigies transformed into streams of light, swiftly darting towards the front.

Chu Tian almost shattered his teeth in frustration!

”Ye Qingchen, I’ve declared it, yet you still dare to trespass into the Human Immortal Martial Tomb! If I don’t grind your bones to dust, you won’t know the extent of my methods! Just you wait!”

Boom!

Chu Tian transformed into a surging light, charging furiously towards the palace.

Not long after, numerous Celestial Venerable experts arrived at the scene. Upon seeing the massive palace, they exclaimed in disbelief. Then, each with reddened eyes, hurried forward, fearing they would be too late even to savor a sip of the broth.

Without pausing for even a moment, they directly rushed towards the palace.

...

”This path is too bizarre!”

Lu Yanwu followed behind Ye Qingchen, cautiously observing the surroundings. Ever since they entered, she noticed that, unbeknownst to them, a thin layer of gray mist had enveloped them on all sides.

This mist seemed faint but rendered one unable to see their outstretched hand.

It almost felt.

As if only the three of them were left on this path.

’Why does Mr. Ye trust this demon fox?’

As she walked, she couldn’t help but steal glances at Ye Qingchen ahead. ”Doesn’t he fear the fox might play tricks? If there are any ambushes on this path, we might all perish here!”

Yet seeing Ye Qingchen’s calm demeanor, she could only swallow her multitude of doubts.

”Do you really trust me so much?”

The Three-tailed Fox caught Lu Yanwu’s expression, looking at Ye Qingchen with a smirk, ”Your little sweetheart is worried I’ll lead you both into a trap!”

”This path is so concealed; there must be something remarkable.” Ye Qingchen met the gaze of the Three-tailed Fox and said calmly, ”Besides, I have a gut feeling that you won’t deceive me!”

”Hmph!”

The Three-tailed Fox snorted coldly at this and said nothing more.

This seemingly simple path was far from ordinary, appearing endless. Even with Ye Qingchen’s pace, it took an entire day to traverse. And at the end of the path, contrary to Lu Yanwu’s expectations of a grand palace, there was only a simple stone house.

Ye Qingchen pushed the door open directly to see the inside of the stone house, which was very simple, almost empty with no furnishings. Sitting cross-legged in the center of the stone house was a middle-aged man in royal robes!

”The Southern King?”

Lu Yanwu was shocked and terrified upon seeing this.

”He’s already dead!” Ye Qingchen stated calmly.

Hearing this, Lu Yanwu looked over and indeed saw that the individual had no breath and his eyes were tightly closed, evidently having been dead for some time. Seeing this corpse, Lu Yanwu shuddered and couldn’t help saying:

”Since the Southern King’s body is here, then what was that palace all about...”

”It must be a trap!” Ye Qingchen mused, stroking his chin. ”Perhaps knowing that the grand tomb couldn’t keep intruders out, he set up the palace as a cenotaph to protect his real tomb as much as possible!”

”Indeed, indeed, those who entered that palace must face the traps of a Human Immortal Martial Tomb. Even if they struggle desperately to the end, they might not gain even a fragment of the Southern King’s heritage treasure!” the Three-tailed Fox said with a sly grin.

Hearing this, Lu Yanwu’s mind conjured images of those prodigies striving to overcome the myriad of traps, only to find all their efforts were in vain, and the rage and frustration that would ensue.

”However...”

She looked around reflectively, ”Since this is the real tomb, where is the Southern King’s treasure hidden? There’s nothing in this stone chamber!”

”Haha, what do you know?”

Ye Qingchen chuckled lightly. As Lu Yanwu watched in confusion, he unleashed a spell that struck the wall behind the Southern King.

At that moment, the wall shimmered like a veil being torn apart, revealing a massive treasury.

In the vault, countless Spirit Stones were piled high. On one side, a library brimmed with myriad Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, while the opposite side was filled with Spirit Swords that gleamed coldly.

There was also a shelf lined with Jade Pupil Scrolls filled with various secret techniques.

”This is...”

Lu Yanwu’s eyes widened in disbelief.

”This is the real treasure of the Southern King! So many Spirit Stones must have been amassed from exploiting the people during his life. These Spirit Swords are more than enough for me to set up a Ten Thousand Swords Array. And with so many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, I can concoct a powerful elixir... If successful, I might directly step into the Celestial Venerable Fifth Layer!”

”Are these the martial arts the Southern King collected during his life?”

Ye Qingchen scanned the Jade Pupil Scrolls on the bookshelf. As he injected his consciousness into one, he immediately revealed an expression of immense joy.
