Supreme Sword God

Chapter 738 737: The Void Beast Appears!

Young Master Mu, Mu Baoming, was heading to the True Martial Hall as quickly as possible.

Mu Qingqing triggered a small restriction in Ye Chenʼs cultivation chamber, and immediately, Ye Chen exited the Sword Tomb and walked out of the training room.

When Ye Chen saw the excited expression on Mu Baomingʼs face, a surge of nervousness suddenly arose in his heart.

”Did it succeed?”

Mu Baoming nodded heavily!

”Letʼs go!”

Ye Chen grabbed Mu Baoming and rushed out of the courtyard towards Celestial Cyan City.

......

In the Mu Mansionʼs vast artifact refining room, the previously piled-up clutter had been cleared, leaving only a gigantic portal several dozen meters tall.

The portal was engraved with countless spiritual patterns, exuding a profound aura.

This was the Celestial Gate developed by Grandmaster Mu Yi, with many differences from the gate of the alien race.

Ye Chen activated the Martial Arts Celestial Eye and observed carefully, then immediately looked away.

After all... he couldnʼt understand it!

He knew nothing about artifact refining.

Beside him.

In addition to Mu Yi and his son Mu Baoming, there was also Lin Yan, the Grand Pavilion Master of the Celestial Soldier Pavilion.

Since Ye Chen mentioned it to Lin Yan last time and also informed Mu Yi, Lin Yan had been visiting the Mu Mansion frequently lately.

The Celestial Gate was completed so quickly partly due to Lin Yanʼs efforts.

”Grandmaster Mu, can it be used now?” Ye Chen asked.

Mu Yi shook his head and said, ”The Celestial Gate is dual-directional, but currently only this one exists. If you use this gate to go to the Outer Heaven, you wonʼt be able to come back.”

”Then why not create another Celestial Gate?”

”Weʼre out of Void Stones,” Lin Yan said from the side.

Ye Chen: ”...No problem, Iʼll get a batch of Void Stones soon!”

”This Celestial Gate has exhausted all my lifetimeʼs experience in artifact refining, combined with research results from the main hall. Its usage is greater than the gate of the alien race.

The Celestial Eye Race guys take half a month at the longest and ten or eight days at the quickest to come to our world from the Outer Heaven.

I built this Celestial Gate to cut that time by about half because Iʼve arranged numerous speed-enhancing spiritual pattern arrays inside the gate.

Apart from speed, I can ensure this Celestial Gate wonʼt cause any disturbance when penetrating the barrier of the alien Outer Heaven, thanks to the material Young Master Ye sent me. If Iʼm not wrong, that came from Vice Hall Master Lin Wen of the True Martial Hall Bright Hall, right?”

Ye Chen smiled, ”Thatʼs right. Lin Wen is in the Outer Heaven, and that material is indeed from him.”

Lin Yan also laughed and said, ”Thereʼs another very special aspect: the stability of this Celestial Gate surpasses that of the alienʼs. The alienʼs gates sometimes malfunction, with the Celestial Gate Passage collapsing in the void being quite common.”

”Currently, this Celestial Gate still has many areas for improvement, but none are significant issues. Young Master Ye, once you get me a batch of Void Stones, I will surely solve those problems!” Mu Yi looked at Ye Chen with fervent eyes, ready to work immediately if Void Stones were available.

Once obsessed with crafting Sacred Artifacts, Mu Yi now had no such thoughts.

Creating and improving the Celestial Gate had become his greatest life pursuit!

Ye Chen said, ”Grandmaster Mu, take a few days to rest and recharge. Iʼll definitely handle the Void Stone matter!”

With the Celestial Gate completed, all plans could progress rapidly. At this moment, Ye Chen was filled with enthusiasm.

......

Leaving Mu Mansion and exiting Celestial Cyan City, Ye Chen immediately activated the Outer Heaven mark, leaving Cangzhou!

Previously, he had also given Lin Wen a batch of Void Stones, which should not have been entirely used up yet, considering Lin Wenʼs consumption wasnʼt that high, but he didnʼt know how much was left.

Of course, even if Lin Wen had a lot left, it wouldnʼt suffice.

From now on, the Celestial Gate was of utmost importance and needed to be manufactured in large quantities!

Void Stones had become the most crucial strategic resource.

So this time, entering the Outer Heaven, Ye Chen was determined to find a Void Beast cub. If he could find one, the Void Stone issue would be fundamentally resolved.

Following the Path opened by the spatial mark, after about half a day, Ye Chen arrived near the large bubble barrier of the Outer Heaven.

”Brother Chun told me not to get too close to the barrier, or else attracting a Void Beast cub would immediately alert the Three Emperors of the Alien Race!”

Ye Chen muttered and then put on the blood-red Asura mask, immediately traversing through the void.

His current strength was on par with the top Heaven-Reaching Realm experts; unless extraordinary disasters occurred in the void, there werenʼt any significant issues.

For safety, Ye Chen also summoned the Infinite Star Sword Array, expanding it to twenty-four swords, with extraordinary effects.

Additionally, he carried the Half-Sacred Artifact, the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower, in his hand.

After moving away from the Outer Heaven barrier, Ye Chen stopped.

According to Brother Chun, he manipulated a part of the ancient raceʼs primordial energy to disperse, attempting to attract a Void Beast.

Strands of ancient race primordial energy dispersed into the void, with only the sound of chaotic currents sweeping through, and no other movements.

About half an hour later.

Ye Chen frowned slightly.

Even though this thing currently requires no cost to acquire, itʼs still a precious form of energy. Letting it freely dissipate and waste away feels a bit painful.

”Could it be that the Void Beastʼs cub has already run far away?” Ye Chen muttered.

Just as he finished speaking.

Suddenly, the void trembled!

A terrifying aura of pressure arose.

”Boom boom boom...”

Ye Chenʼs expression immediately showed a hint of excitement as he quickly looked in the direction from which the roaring sound was coming.

He saw a turtle-like beast in the void, moving with four stout short legs, swimming toward Ye Chenʼs direction.

This giant turtleʼs body was quite massive, with a diameter of four to five hundred meters!

”Is this the Void Beast cub?”

Ye Chenʼs mouth twitched; are cubs this big?

The Void Beast cub flew close to Ye Chen, and then an astonishing suction power erupted from its nose and mouth, instantly absorbing the ancient clanʼs primordial energy that was dissipating around.

Then, the Void Beast cub stared at Ye Chen, its eyes as big as a giant lantern, filled with intense desire.

It was akin to a starving man who suddenly had a bowl of deliciously braised pork placed in front of him, eager to devour it immediately.

Ye Chen also stared at the Void Beast.

One man and one beast, big eyes staring into small eyes.

The Void Beast stuck out its tongue and flicked it repeatedly.

”You still want that previous energy?” Ye Chen attempted to communicate with the Void Beast.

The Void Beast nodded its head.

Ye Chen flicked his hand, tossing out a ball of the ancient clanʼs primordial energy.

The Void Beast opened its mouth and inhaled, swallowing the ball of ancient clanʼs primordial energy, continuing to stare at Ye Chen with its big eyes.

”No more!”

”Boom boom boom!”

The Void Beastʼs limbs flailed wildly in the void, just like a hungry baby throwing a tantrum.

Then, the Void Beast charged toward Ye Chen.

Ye Chenʼs expression changed, and he fiercely threw the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower in his hand.

The Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower instantly enlarged, crashing into the Void Beastʼs body.

”Boom!”

The Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower was blown away.

The Void Beast was also knocked backward, but it wasnʼt harmed in the slightest.

”Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Ye Chen controlled the Infinite Star Sword Array to weave and hover, shouting loudly, ”I donʼt have much of that kind of energy, if you kill me, itʼll be completely gone.

Letʼs talk this over.

Iʼll give you some energy from time to time, and you give me this thing!”

As he spoke, Ye Chen used his mind, and a void stone flew out from the Storage Ring, landing in front of the Void Beast.

The Void Beastʼs gigantic eyes blinked, and then from its backside, clattering... appeared a large pile of void stones, which all flew towards Ye Chen.

Ye Chen: ”...”

Immediately, he activated the Storage Ringʼs gathering power to collect all these void stones into the Storage Ring.

He didnʼt even want to touch them with his hand.

”Any more?” Ye Chen asked.

The Void Beast flicked its tongue.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth and threw out another ball of the ancient clanʼs primordial energy.

The Void Beast swallowed the primordial energy, and from its backside, another pile of void stones appeared.

Ye Chen, as before, quickly packed all the void stones into the Storage Ring.

”Iʼm down to the last bit of energy; Iʼll give it all to you.” Ye Chen showed a pained expression and tossed another ball of primordial energy.

This time, after the Void Beast swallowed the primordial energy, it produced no more void stones.

Ye Chenʼs eyes flickered and said, ”No rush, you can brew it for a while!”

”Okay!”

The Void Beast spoke.

Ye Chen: ”... You can speak the human language?”

”I understand it, of course I can speak it, you foolish little creature, I just didnʼt want to pay attention to you earlier!” the Void Beast said in a disdainful tone.
