Chapter 3455: Breaking Into the Stone Gate

Ye Liuyun just smiled, and did not attack the old man again, but instead started chatting again with the Da Huzi Martial Cultivator.

"What realm are these stone Kuailei in?"

"One tier higher than you! Its realm can change; whoever fights it, its realm will be one tier higher than the opponent's."

"You might actually be able to beat it. Its realm is low, but it has treasure! We have no chance; we can only linger here, waiting for others to go in and reap the benefits!" the Da Huzi Martial Cultivator said.

"Go try it. He's right; perhaps you really can beat that stone Kuailei! If you find a way out, don't forget to take us with you; we will surely repay you greatly!"

At this moment, the Martial Cultivator with the highest realm also interjected.

As for the heavy thanks he mentioned, Ye Liuyun didn't dare to count on it; not killing him would be good enough. However, if the stone Kuailei's realm is truly only one tier higher than his, he could indeed give it a try.

He used his Golden Pupil to scan the three stone chambers in advance, discovering that in the left chamber there was a straw mat, and he couldn't discern its purpose.

The right stone chamber contained a set of armor and a long spear, both appearing to be Seventh Tier, seventh‑grade treasures. The middle stone chamber held a crystal‑clear white jade, which didn't seem to have a grade.

But the items placed side by side here are probably of comparable value.

At that moment, the Book Demon suddenly told Ye Liuyun in his Sea of Consciousness: "The left one should be a martial art inheritance. The right one is treasure, and the middle one is a jade divine bone for body refinement, capable of strengthening all your bones!"

"Jade divine bone? What kind of heavenly material and earthly treasure is that?" Ye Liuyun had never heard the term before.

"It's not really a heavenly material; it's jade‑transformed bones cultivated by strong Physical Bodies. The power contained within can be absorbed to reinforce bones," the Book Demon explained.

"Won't the strong one's Soul remain within it?" Ye Liuyun immediately thought of a trap, warning against being schemed by a deceased strong cultivator for the sake of treasure.

"With your current Divine Soul Power and Ten Thousand Gods Command, whose Soul could harm you?" the Book Demon retorted.

"That's true! Then I'll go try the middle stone chamber!" Ye Liuyun decided on the spot.

The Book Demon sighed again: "What a lack of ambition! Not being greedy when you should be. And you discard the other two treasures? What if that martial art is related to Spatial Power? Since these people can't enter anyway, you'd better take them all."

"Um... makes sense!" Ye Liuyun didn't argue and immediately headed toward the middle stone chamber.

But the other Martial Cultivators, at this moment, all gripped their weapons, ready for battle.

"What, does the stone Kuailei still intend to attack you?" Ye Liuyun noticed their tension and immediately asked.

"The stone Kuailei won't. However, when you duel the stone Kuailei, some Yin Souls will appear here and attack us!" the strongest Martial Cultivator explained.

"Yin Souls or illusion?" Ye Liuyun guessed in his mind.

"Will those Yin Souls attack me?" Ye Liuyun asked further.

"They won't, you can rest assured. When you face the stone Kuailei, the others have no chance to intervene!" the Martial Cultivator confirmed.

Ye Liuyun thought it over and decided he must be prepared, lest he be ambushed by others or objects. He's not a child to believe everything others say.

After preparing, Ye Liuyun advanced again. The Sixth‑rank Void short sword already circled him, ready to strike at any moment.

The stone Kuailei remained motionless until Ye Liuyun approached within ten zhang; then it suddenly opened its eyes to size him up, and its realm instantly shifted to the Great Void Third Level, just as the Martial Cultivators had described.

However, it also noticed the short sword and immediately drew a great axe from behind. The great axe was originally just an ordinary stone, but now it suddenly emitted the aura of a Seventh Tier weapon to block the short sword. It seemed intended to prevent Ye

Liuyun from using the treasure to defeat this stone Kuailei.

But immediately after, the Ten Thousand Gods Command in Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness burst into Golden Light, indicating that the illusion here was strengthening again. The Martial Cultivators behind him each suddenly launched attacks into the air.

Those attacks traveled through the air and naturally struck the surrounding Martial Cultivators. Consequently, the people quickly fell into chaos, merrily fighting the non‑existent Yin Souls.

"Sure enough, it's an illusion! That's actually good; they're held back by the illusion and have no time to compete with me for opportunities."

Just as Ye Liuyun thought that, the stone Kuailei opposite him also moved, throwing a fist toward him.

He feared a trick, so he didn't meet the first punch head‑on; instead he evaded with Spatial Power, but the stone Kuailei's Spatial Power was also strong, and it immediately followed with another fist.

This time, Ye Liuyun gauged the punch's strength and instantly activated Divine Core and Heaven and Earth Power, hammering a fist back.

With a "Bang" sound, the stone Kuailei was driven back repeatedly by Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun raised his hand to strike again, but the stone Kuailei suddenly emitted a terrifying oppressive aura, causing him to retreat in fright.

Yet the stone Kuailei did not press the attack; instead it respectfully bowed to Ye Liuyun, making a pleading gesture.

"What does this mean? Does it mean I've passed?" Ye Liuyun wondered.

"Why are you standing still? Go in! You defeated it, and now it has become your guardian," the Book Demon urged him within his Sea of Consciousness.

"Oh!" Ye Liuyun replied, cautiously stepping toward the stone gate. The stone Kuailei turned, brandishing a great axe outward, guarding both Ye Liuyun and the stone gate behind it.

"So smooth!" Ye Liuyun only relaxed after entering the stone chamber.

At the same time, everyone halted and looked toward Ye Liuyun. However, the stone Kuailei now possessed the Great Void Ninth Level realm; even if they used treasures, they couldn't match it, so they dared not

Only that the recent battle had already claimed several Martial Cultivators. The people nearby

After Ye Liuyun entered the stone chamber, the stone gate immediately closed again.

He promptly seized the jade divine bone, felt it, and discovered it indeed contained a dense special energy.

He stored the jade divine bone into the Space World, intending to leave, but

"What! This can't be trapping me here to death, can it?" Ye Liuyun immediately panicked a bit.

"Don't panic! I estimate that you need to refine that jade divine bone first, and only then can I let you leave here!" the Book Demon helped him analyze.
