Chapter 2035: With a Single Hundred
Yi Dao sliced off the eel's head and tossed it away, and the duplicate gathered the segmented eel.
The crocodile half‑beast's scale armor and Primordial Core were not wasted by the duplicate, all of which were stored into the Space World.
The eel Monster Beast's Soul had already been devoured by the duplicate, and the duplicate also performed Soul Search, confirming that the cave indeed contained higher‑quality Life Spring Water.
Moreover, beneath the pool there was an emerald‑green Life Crystal Stone that could enhance the quality of the Life Spring Water.
After the duplicate entered the Cave, it immediately collected both the Life Spring Water and the Life Crystal Stone into the Space World, placing them into its own Life Spring Water pool.
Then the duplicate swapped places with Ye Liuyun, letting Ye Liuyun continue on his journey.
Ye Liuyun also dared not linger; when he emerged again, a ferocious beast in the distance had already sniffed the scent of fresh blood here and came to investigate.
He instantly sprinted back toward that sea‑buckthorn thicket.
"I have no idea what treasures are inside the cave; how did he come out so quickly?"
"His direction this time is still that sea‑buckthorn thicket! Could there really be treasure there?"
The many Elders began to discuss again, while also expressing great admiration for Ye Liuyun's performance.
"No wonder he kept that crocodile monster earlier; it turns out he wanted to use it this way!"
"This kid's Divine Soul Power killed an eight‑fold Martial Cultivator so effortlessly!"
"He actually carries quite a few treasures with him!"
Now they no longer worry about Ye Liuyun being in danger; instead they are curious why he still wants to return to that sea‑buckthorn thicket.
After Ye Liuyun returned, he first surveyed the area.
The sea‑buckthorn there had been completely burned away, leaving no trace.
Only then did Ye Liuyun let the Barbarian Ox revert to its true form, released it, and had the Barbarian Ox help excavate the underground palace.
When the Barbarian Ox emerged, it stomped repeatedly, shaking the ground so violently that it quivered.
The soil of the sea‑buckthorn field is semi‑sandy and never very compact; with that stomp, the underground palace was jolted upward, while the sandy soil sank down.
The numerous Elders watched in amazement as the surface sand flowed downward, yet the ground itself began to sway.
Then a pointed spire protruded, and they realized it was a Grand Hall.
They could not see what treasures lay inside.
Ye Liuyun dared not linger; such a commotion would surely alert nearby creatures.
He tried to input his Divine Sense into the Grand Hall, but unexpectedly the Grand Hall, indeed a treasure, directly absorbed Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense and recognized him as its master.
This made things even easier for Ye Liuyun; he directly collected the Grand Hall into the Space World, letting his duplicate handle it, while he sprinted toward his next target.
The next target was a tomb located a day and a half away.
"Calculating from the current time, I'm afraid I really can't reach many places."
"All the time is wasted on the road!"
Ye Liuyun sighed inwardly.
That tomb lies in the southwest corner of the Secret Realm, while the tower stands in the southeast corner of the Secret Realm.
After reaching the tomb, Ye Liuyun would still need a day to rush to the tower.
However, to obtain the treasure he desires, he has no other choice.
Fortunately, within the Space World, the duplicate had already led everyone into the freshly acquired Grand Hall, which contains countless cultivation resources, far surpassing what he could gather by traveling to multiple locations.
"With a hundred caps, there's no loss!"
Ye Liuyun felt quite satisfied.
At this moment, those Elders in the Grand Hall finally understood why Ye Liuyun had returned.
The reason he didn't take the treasure last time was simply because there wasn't enough time.
Moreover, the treasure is buried underground, making it hard for other creatures to discover.
The ferocious beasts within the Secret Realm all know what dangers surround the area.
They won't easily come here to investigate.
Even if they notice the sea‑buckthorn has vanished, it is still difficult to detect the buried treasure.
Ye Liuyun used this interval to also employ the crocodile half‑beast to eliminate the eel Monster Beast.
They still don't know what treasure lies inside the Grand Hall, but based on past analyses they are certain it will contain valuable items.
"How did this kid discover the underground stuff?"
Someone shouted in bewilderment.
"Tsk tsk! This kid's plan is flawless, quite impressive!"
Others also admired Ye Liuyun's meticulous planning.
"With this move, he should reap a great reward! Two days' effort is absolutely worth it!"
Some envied Ye Liuyun's harvest.
After everyone's reflections, they began to speculate about Ye Liuyun's next destination.
"The tomb!"
Elder Kuruong said confidently.
"How did you know it was the tomb?"
Mao Hongyin asked curiously.
"Did you not notice?
This kid's destinations are always the most dangerous places, or places others can't find.
And often, the more unvisited the place, the greater his gains!"
Elder Kuruong analyzed.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
That burial ground is also a forbidden zone for many disciples.
Of course some people have entered, but only a few, and none have reached the central tomb chamber.
Ye Liuyun hurried to the tomb without daring to rest, and his Mysterious Origin had been consumed by almost half.
Upon entering the underground tomb chamber, he immediately swapped places with his clone and returned to Xuan Kong Shi to replenish Mysterious Origin.
The clone, using Nether Ghost Fire and Buddha Light Power, swiftly cleared all obstacles and rushed toward the central tomb chamber.
Since this place is underground, Ye Liuyun did not worry about being watched; he released Jin Hui and Ning Fei to cooperate with the clone, and in an instant they annihilated the zombie of the Eighth Realm guarding the central tomb chamber.
Inside the central tomb chamber there was only a single Buddha Light relic and nothing else.
The clone then had Jin Hui and Ning Fei guard the tomb entrance to prevent other zombies from entering, while it returned to Xuan Kong Shi to cultivate together with Ye Liuyun, replenishing Mysterious Origin.
Their full‑power flight consumes too much Mysterious Origin.
Now, even combined, their Mysterious Origin is enough for only one person to use.
If danger arises, they might not have enough Mysterious Origin to respond.
They have already obtained enough treasures and do not wish to waste time going elsewhere.
In the end, going only to the tower is sufficient.
Therefore Ye Liuyun set aside two days here to replenish Mysterious Origin.
He also avoids leaving too quickly, which would make the observers outside suspicious.
After more than twenty days inside Xuan Kong Shi, the two of them focused solely on cultivating Mysterious Origin and have only recovered seventy‑to‑eighty percent.
This result was only achieved because they used many Top‑grade Divine Crystals and genius earth treasures.
"No wonder the strong rarely act; it really drains resources!"
Ye Liuyun sighed in contemplation.
After that, they retraced their steps; before exiting the tomb, they recalled the clone and the others back to Space World.
Once out of the tomb, Ye Liuyun sprinted straight toward the tower.
"Only two days! What do you think he covered inside, and what could he obtain?"
Jin Qing Song asked the others curiously.
Everyone shook their heads together.
Only Elder Ku Rong said, "It must be the finest treasure inside; he wouldn't even consider ordinary items!"
