Chapter 306: Long Time No See
Anyone who can ascend this peak is none other than a Demon Race with a relatively strong physique.
And the trait of these Demon Race is that their Soul cultivation is slightly weaker. So Ye Liuyun is not afraid at all, directly annihilating their Souls in the Soul Domain, keeping them for later absorption when he has time.
Naturally, their Storage Rings also belong to Ye Liuyun.
At this moment, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense suddenly notices a Human Martial Cultivator rapidly flying toward the mountain. His ascent speed surpasses Ye Liuyun's, almost sprinting upward without his feet touching the ground.
Surrounding that person is a Heavenly Earth momentum stronger than Ye Liuyun's, helping him counter the pressure.
"Huh! Why didn't I think of using this kind of Heavenly Earth momentum to counter the pressure!" Ye Liuyun mutters to himself.
When he sees the newcomer's face clearly, he can't help saying, "Long time no see!"
The person hears this, looks into the distance, then smiles, "Indeed, long time no see!"
The one sprinting up the mountain is the Mo Tianheng Ye Liuyun has not seen for a long time! m.
Back then, in Fengyang City, the only Mo family prodigy who could match Ye Liuyun. He was supposed to enter the Golden Armor Guard preparatory camp with him, but disappeared early.
At that time Mo Tianheng told him to go out and travel. Unexpectedly, the two of them met inside the Demon Race's Secret Realm.
Mo Tianheng sprinted all the way to Shi Yuan's side and glanced.
Ye Liuyun quickly spoke, fearing Mo Tianheng would act on Shi Yuan. "That is my pet beast. All those climbing are my companions and pets. Brother Mo, show some mercy."
Mo Tianheng immediately stopped paying attention to Shi Yuan, then accelerated toward the summit. Upon arriving, he said, "Both Bai Hu and Shi Yuan have pure bloodlines. I didn't expect you could even tame beasts!"
"Just a little knowledge! Brother Mo, how did I run into you here? Have you been in the Barbarian Tribe's region all these years?"
"Barbarian Tribe? Isn't that in the north? I entered this Secret Realm from the Demon Race headquarters near Qingfeng Academy. Did you come in from the Barbarian Tribe?" Mo Tianheng asked curiously.
"Yes! It seems we entered this same Secret Realm through different entrances! What a fate! After all these years, I wonder how your strength is now, Brother Mo?" Ye Liuyun was curious, because he could not discern Mo Tianheng's realm.
Mo Tianheng also could not see his realm. Yet he said, "I came here for an important matter. My time is short, so I can't spar with you now. If you're also seeking an opportunity, follow me; I'm fairly familiar with this place."
"Have you been here before?" Ye Liuyun asked.
Mo Tianheng shook his head, "No, but the scenes here often appear in my mind. Over the years, I frequently see some scenarios as if I had experienced them before. I've been searching for these scenes and have found some confirmation; perhaps I lived through them in a past life! Moreover, there's a force here that summons me."
After speaking, he gave no further explanation and led the way forward, heading toward a Grand Hall at the summit. That Grand Hall has a Formation that blocks Divine Sense detection, so Ye Liuyun could not discern what lay inside.
Ye Liuyun watched Mo Tianheng's back and thought, "Could Mo Tianheng be a reincarnated strong one?"
Thinking again of the Heavenly Earth aura merging with Mo Tianheng, he became even more certain that Mo Tianheng is far from ordinary.
Ye Liuyun had heard of reincarnated strong ones before, but never encountered one. He didn't ask further. Whoever he is, I only recognize him this life as Mo Tianheng.
Moreover, Mo Tianheng has always been friendly, acting uprightly, with no intention to harm, so Ye Liuyun isn't worried.
Ye Liuyun originally wanted to ask where Mo Tianheng had been all this time and what he was doing, but seeing his furrowed brow deep in thought, evidently trying to grasp information in his mind, he quietly followed behind without disturbing him.
They have now entered the Grand Hall and arrived at its center.
Mo Tianheng ponders, feeling here, looking there, scanning the surroundings.
Ye Liuyun activated his Golden Pupil, scanned around, and found nothing special. The Grand Hall, however, has a Formation that prohibits flight, so they cannot fly inside.
Suddenly, Mo Tianheng shouted, "Found it!"
Ye Liuyun didn't know what switch he triggered; the Hall doors slammed shut, and the ground began to tremble.
"Don't panic! Nothing will happen! We'll go down underground!" Mo Tianheng reassured him.
Immediately, Ye Liuyun felt the ground disappear beneath his feet. The Grand Hall's floor cracked open, and he and Mo Tianheng fell downward together.
Instinctively he tried to rise into the air, but the anti‑flight Formation inside the Hall restrained him; he couldn't lift off and had to fall with Mo Tianheng.
Seeing Mo Tianheng's completely untroubled expression, he also relaxed.
During the descent, he sensed the overwhelming spiritual Qi here, already turned into a fine mist.
"Could there be a Spiritual Stone Vein here?" Ye Liuyun thought, delighted.
Soon the two fell to the mountain's base. Just before reaching the ground, the anti‑flight pressure vanished, and both employed Sky‑ruling Power to float upward.
Ye Liuyun, however, was stunned by the scene before his eyes.
This is a world of Spirit Stones; the entire underground is paved with Spirit Stones. In the distance, several huge ferocious beasts and many Foreign Tribe evil artifacts are sealed within the Spirit Stones, appearing as if they were battling, vivid and lifelike, even their expressions are exquisitely rendered. Judging solely by size, these beasts and Foreign Tribe evil artifacts are at least at the Heavenly Gang Realm.
Ye Liuyun used his Divine Sense to probe, confirming that they no longer emit Divine Sense fluctuations; they are dead, only Physical Body remains. Yet he could not understand how they were sealed by the Spirit Stones.
At the center of this underground world stands a square platform piled with Spirit Stones, atop which sits a crystal box. Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil cannot discern what is inside the box, but he can feel the energy it emits is far stronger than that of the Spirit Stones.
"What is it that has such a strong energy fluctuation?" Ye Liuyun asked, but received no reply.
He now confirms that the energy he feels is indeed emanating from the box.
Seeing Mo Tianheng excitedly rush toward the box, Ye Liuyun curiously followed.
When they approached, Ye Liuyun realized the box is larger than himself.
"It's it, that's right!" Mo Tianheng said, a bit excited.
"What?" Ye Liuyun had no idea what Mo Tianheng was referring to.
"This place is a hideout left by a predecessor before his fall in ancient times. The abundance of Spirit Stones here, and the sealing of those statues within Spirit Stones, are all because of this."
Mo Tianheng explained the origin of this place to him, then leapt onto the Spirit Stone platform, feeling around the box.
Ye Liuyun jumped in alarm. "If you open this box, won't we become like those statues?"
Mo Tianheng smiled, "No. Its great power has waned. Moreover, I'm following the method it told me to rescue it; it won't harm me. Rest assured, later you'll also gain some benefits."
