Chapter 1489: Finally Encountering the Foreign Tribe

When the battle ended, Ye Liuyun immediately began to release his Divine Sense, searching everywhere for the whereabouts of the Foreign Tribe. (Love readingШшш. LOVEYUEDU.? Om)

But what puzzled him was that the Foreign Tribe never appeared.

"Do we still need to collect the Spirit Stones inside the Cave?" Meng Zhangxing asked.

Now everyone suspects that this is a trap set by the Foreign Tribe.

The less they see the Foreign Tribe, the more they become superstitious.

"Collect them! Why let free ones go uncollected!" Ye Liuyun smiled, placing his Earth Sovereign ferocious beast and Kuailei into the Cave, letting them gather the Spirit Stones.

He and Meng Zhangxing and the others waited outside the Cave to avoid falling into a trap.

"The Foreign Tribe abandoned even its lair?" Meng Zhangxing asked Ye Liuyun, puzzled.

At this moment, the ferocious beasts and Kuailei had already collected three batches of Spirit Stones and handed them to Ye Liuyun, while the Spirit Stones inside the Cave were not yet fully mined.

The Foreign Tribe remained silent.

Ye Liuyun was also perplexed. He kept releasing his Divine Sense but did not detect any trace of the Foreign Tribe.

"Perhaps the Foreign Tribe has more than this one lair!" Guo Da speculated.

"If so, the Foreign Tribe's current cultivation grounds must be even richer in resources!" Ye Liuyun guessed.

They waited in place for two days, mining out all the Spirit Stones from the Cave, and encountered no danger.

Ye Liuyun also distributed the Spirit Stones among the group.

"What do we do now?" A Ya asked.

The Spirit Stones they received were enough for long-term cultivation. She thought Ye Liuyun and the others had harvested enough and could consider withdrawing now.

She feared that Ye Liuyun and the others might be captured by the Foreign Tribe and surrender.

Luo Yun also suggested leaving Death Valley, feeling the Foreign Tribe was too mysterious and not wanting Ye Liuyun to take that risk.

"I will keep searching until I find that Foreign Tribe. If you are worried, you can retreat outside Death Valley and wait for me!" Ye Liuyun told the group.

"No! There are too many Formations on the road, many are bidirectional. Even if we go out, we'll get trapped in a Formation. We can't get out on our own!" Guo Da immediately rejected Ye Liuyun's suggestion.

"Then stay here and wait for me; I think this place is relatively safe!" Ye Liuyun suggested.

"We've already come this far; we'll keep following you! Splitting up makes us more vulnerable. Besides, we have a duty to eliminate that Foreign Tribe!" Meng Zhangxing said.

He wanted to continue the adventure, not to covet more resources.

"Indeed, my Formation can also help. In critical moments, I won't hold you back!" Guo Da also wanted to proceed.

Thus, the three men all wanted to move forward. The two women had no choice but to follow them.

Not long after they advanced, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense detected that they were nearing the end of Death Valley.

What was once an open valley floor began to narrow.

However, the deepest part of the valley floor was undetectable by his Divine Sense. It must be a Formation within the valley that blocks Divine Sense detection.

Ye Liuyun warned the group to stay alert, deliberately keeping a distance and scouting ahead for them.

They had proceeded safely before reaching the Formation that blocks Divine Sense.

"Can we break this Formation?" Ye Liuyun asked Guo Da.

Guo Da studied it for a while, then shook his head helplessly.

"This Formation is sustained by the entire valley's energy, built according to the terrain. It might be broken from within. From the outside I'm powerless!"

They were now just outside the Formation, a step away, yet could not see what lay within the shielded space.

"Since that's the case, let's go in! Prepare your defenses!" Ye Liuyun warned the group, then resolutely stepped forward and entered.

He was also extremely cautious, ready to act the moment he entered.

However, there was no obvious danger ahead. The air was even filled with spiritual energy. Yet the Foreign Tribe's evil aura was also very strong.

All he saw were ferocious beasts and human skeletons, forming a thick layer on the ground.

"Hm? Why weren't these bones used to build an Altar?" Ye Liuyun wondered.

He knew the Foreign Tribe could connect to their world using an Altar, but he didn't expect there to be none here.

Indeed, this was the bottom of Death Valley. Ahead lay a clearing strewn with bones, while behind rose steep cliffs.

Midway up the cliffs, there were two large doors.

Ye Liuyun recognized one of the pitch‑black doors; it was identical to the door of the Nether Hell he had seen before.

The other door was golden, and bore a large lock.

"That golden door should be the passage to the Divine Realm, right?" Ye Liuyun thought, "I wonder if the key I hold can open this door."

At the foot of the mountain stood a silver‑scaled Foreign Tribe, its head like an eagle's, staring coldly at him.

Soon after, Meng Zhangxing and the others followed in, standing behind Ye Liuyun.

The silver Foreign Tribe opposite them, upon seeing Ye Liuyun's realm, showed a look of disappointment.

"How did you get in?" he asked curiously.

Ye Liuyun did not answer, instead assessing its realm and strength.

Although this Foreign Tribe possessed a Heavenly Sovereign Ninth Tier realm, its aura seemed far stronger than that of other Martial Cultivators or Corpse Demons of the same tier.

He discovered that the True Essence Quality within the Foreign Tribe's Primordial Core was far higher than that of ordinary Heavenly Sovereign Ninth Tier beings.

If his Mysterious Origin were cultivated to the Heavenly Sovereign Ninth Tier, it should achieve the same effect.

This indicates the Foreign Tribe's strength far exceeds that of Martial Cultivators of the same tier.

The Foreign Tribe, seeing Ye Liuyun and the others remain silent, grew impatient: "A swarm of ants, I'm speaking to you, can you not hear?"

"In our eyes, you're nothing but a monster! Asking us questions? Do you deserve it?" Meng Zhangxing, ignoring the taunts, shouted outright.

Guo Da at this moment began setting up the Formation Plate, enveloping everyone, fearing the Foreign Tribe might strike suddenly and harm them.

"Seeking death!" the Foreign Tribe roared.

Their distance wasn't close, yet the roar rang as if it exploded beside their ears, making their ears buzz.

Besides Ye Liuyun, everyone covered their ears.

Guo Da had already set up a formation plate to defend against spiritual soul attacks, but still didn't completely block its sound wave attack.

If there were no formation, that sound alone would probably make them vomit blood and collapse.

The foreign tribe glanced at Ye Liuyun, sneered: "Not bad, you have some skill! But your realm is too low; I can't be bothered to kill you yourselves! You finish yourselves off!"

Meng Zhangxing was about to retort, but Luo Yun warned him via transmission voice not to provoke that foreign tribe, lest everyone suffer.
