Chapter 21

Long Yuan snorted coldly,

The power on his body became more and more powerful, and the Sky Wolf King's bones, which were being entangled by him, made a cracking sound.

"I know where the heaven and earth essence vein is, and I also know of an expert's ruin!"

The Sky Wolf King wailed.

"Oh? An expert's ruin?"

"It's an expert's ruin, it's an expert's ruin!"

Long Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

If it is an expert's ruin, there should be an inheritance left behind!

The Chu family currently lacks foundation,

If it is true, that is a good thing!

"Since that's the case, this king will give you a chance!"

"But if you dare to have any crooked thoughts, this king will take your life immediately!"

After speaking, Long Yuan injected a large amount of cold air into the other party's body again,

Which immediately froze the Sky Wolf King so much that it couldn't walk properly,

And its whole body was shivering!

"Lead the way in front!"

Long Yuan shouted coldly.

"Yes, yes!"

The Sky Wolf King walked tremblingly in front, walking toward its old nest.

Chu Hongxiao and the others were still standing on Long Yuan's back,

Seeing the silver wolf, who was a fifth-tier Demon King, being subdued by the Beast God,

They were all deeply shocked.

"Too powerful! The Beast God is really too powerful!"

"Even a fifth-tier Demon King is no match for him!"

"How fortunate our Chu family is to be able to get the protection of the Beast God!"

Chu Hongxiao sighed with emotion.

Led by the Sky Wolf King,

the group entered his lair.

The lair was located inside a massive mountain cave,

very spacious.

As they ventured deeper,

the essence of heaven and earth grew increasingly dense.

Long Yuan could feel that he could already use the "Divine Seizing Technique" here!

"It seems the Heavenly Essence Vein must be located right below!"

This made him heave a sigh of relief.

This trip had not been in vain.

It wouldn't be long before he could claim the system reward.

As they entered the deepest part of the lair and finally arrived in a vast space, a translucent silver barrier appeared before them.

"Is this the so-called inheritance of a powerhouse you spoke of?"

Long Yuan looked at the Sky Wolf King.

"Reporting to the Demon King, this barrier is exceptionally powerful. Even I cannot break it. It must have been left behind by some expert; otherwise, it couldn't have been naturally generated!"

The Sky Wolf King was constantly emitting a chill,

with layers of ice shards appearing and then vanishing, over and over again!

He was attempting to expel the cold energy from his body,

but he was unable to do so!

After all, Long Yuan’s cultivation had already reached the perfection of a Fifth-Order Demon King!

A massive blue tail swept across,

slamming into the silver barrier.

With a thunderous boom,

the essence of heaven and earth in the surroundings boiled,

and silver light erupted from the barrier, illuminating the entire space in a brilliant glow.

"Quite sturdy!"

Long Yuan was slightly surprised,

seeing that the existence who set up this barrier was no weakling.

However,

since he had discovered it, there was no reason to return empty-handed.

If all else failed, he would just use the Long Di Palace to smash it open.

But just then,

he suddenly smiled slightly.

"So that's how it is!"

"Is this barrier supported by the Heavenly Essence Vein underground?"

Just now, while attacking, he had felt the turbulence of the Heavenly Essence Vein beneath the ground,

and a large amount of heaven and earth essence had surged upward.

This meant that,

as long as the Heavenly Essence Vein here did not dry up,

this barrier would never be damaged.

Of course,

if one’s strength were sufficient,

one could forcibly break the barrier here,

but that was a different matter!

"Since that's the case, I'll just take the Heavenly Essence Vein away!"

If this were difficult or impossible for others,

it was effortless for him!

Long Yuan immediately used the "Divine Seizing Technique."

His massive mouth opened,

aimed at the ground,

and a pitch-black vortex appeared. The surrounding heaven and earth essence began to pour into the black vortex like ten thousand rivers returning to the sea.

Rumble!!!

The nearby earth began to shake as if an earthquake had occurred, and then a massive fissure split open!

Seeing the other party casting a spell,

the Sky Wolf King’s eyes rolled around.

Just as he was preparing to flee for his life, he saw Long Yuan’s fierce eyes staring at him,

which scared him into lowering his head and tucking his tail immediately.

But taking this opportunity,

he began to focus on forcing the cold energy out of his body.

"What is the Beast God doing?"

Chu Hongxiao and the others watched this scene with curiosity.

Just then, ===== CHAPTER 51 =====

A silver, river-like object emerged from the underground fissure,

hundreds of meters in length.

Dense heaven and earth essence radiated from the long river;

it was precisely the Heavenly Essence Vein!

Right before the astonished eyes of the group,

the silver river was swallowed directly into the pitch-black vortex!

"Done and dusted!"

Long Yuan said with satisfaction.

The "Divine Seizing Technique" was truly worthy of being a system-rewarded method specifically for seizing Heavenly Essence Veins; it was indeed useful.

"And the grade of this Heavenly Essence Vein is not low; it has actually reached the Fifth Order!"

A Fifth-Order Heavenly Essence Vein meant that the heaven and earth essence it emitted could support the cultivation of a Fifth-Order powerhouse.

"The heaven and earth essence should be enough for the Chu family for the next few years!"

He then looked at the barrier in front of him.

At this moment, the silver light it had been emitting began to dim!

Long Yuan swung his tail again,

striking the barrier.

This time, as his blue tail swung, the surrounding space rumbled,

which was the result of the power of heaven and earth being mobilized!

Boom!

Accompanied by a loud noise,

the light on the silver barrier dimmed even further.

Then, two consecutive strikes landed,

and the silver barrier shattered with a crash!

"It's open!"

But just then,

the Sky Wolf King turned into a streak of silver light and darted into the space within the barrier.

The reason he had established his lair here in the first place,

besides the dense heaven and earth essence,

was that he had always wanted to obtain the inheritance inside the barrier.

Now that the barrier was open,

perhaps there was a way inside to deal with this giant python!

"You are courting death!"

Long Yuan roared in anger.

Damn it,

to dare to steal the fruits of this King's labor,

where did you get the courage!

His massive body swayed, and he darted inside in an instant.

There was nothing else inside, only a black palace.

"Haha, is this a Seventh-Order Spirit Tool?"

The Sky Wolf King laughed out loud,

rushing directly into the palace.

If even a palace was a Seventh-Order Spirit Tool,

one could imagine how powerful the inheritance inside would be.

Long Yuan followed closely behind,

but just as he stepped into the palace entrance,

he heard the Sky Wolf King’s blood-curdling screams!

"Ah!!! Awoo! Awoo!"

Countless black sword auras crisscrossed, filling the entire palace.

In just an instant,

the Sky Wolf King’s body was riddled with holes.

Blood sprayed out like a fountain!

"Holy crap!"

Long Yuan was also startled by this sudden turn of events.

Seeing the countless pitch-black sword auras shooting toward him, his scalp went numb.

He had a feeling

that he truly could not withstand this kind of attack.

The next instant,

a nine-story palace suddenly appeared above his head, shedding strands of brilliance.

Clang, clang!!

Sword lights slashed against the radiance,

but they could not break through the brilliance of the Emperor Tool at all.

"You..."

Seeing this scene, the Sky Wolf King widened his eyes in unwillingness, ultimately collapsing in a pool of blood.

"You what you?"

"You were the one who rushed to the front; it’s not like I told you to run so fast!"

Long Yuan, shielded by the Long Di Palace, walked to the side of the Sky Wolf King’s corpse

and collected his body.

He wasn't being kind enough to bury the Sky Wolf King;

rather, he happened to be hungry,

and the Sky Wolf King’s corpse was quite good!

"But I am curious, which wicked person left this inheritance only to trap people to their deaths!"

In any case, with the strength of a Fifth-Order powerhouse,

one absolutely could not withstand the sword aura attacks here.

On his back,

Chu Hongxiao and the others were pale with fright.

Such a powerful Fifth-Order Demon King had just died like that?

The world outside Qingyangzhen was indeed terrifyingly dangerous!

Long Yuan, with the Long Di Palace above his head,

resisted the sword auras filling the sky and entered the deepest part of the palace.

The interior space of the palace was also quite vast,

but it could not be compared to the self-contained space of the Long Di Palace.

And in the deepest part of the palace,

the group saw a corpse that had already lost its life force.

But even so,

the corpse still emitted a faint pressure that made it somewhat difficult for Long Yuan to breathe.

As for the Chu family members,

they were even worse off;

some had already fainted!

Long Yuan simply took them into the Long Di Palace.

In any case, their only role in coming along was to guide Long Yuan to the general location of the Heavenly Essence Vein. ===== CHAPTER 52 =====
