Chapter 3664: Begin the Treasure Hunt

Ye Liuyun fixed his gaze and discovered that the Crystal Core in the brain of the Demon Beast that had burst out was the largest he had ever seen.

And merely from the fact that this Demon Beast was not injured by the formation, one could see that its strength was not weak.

"It seems to be a strong one of Cave Heaven Realm strength!" Gu Changhong also reported to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, then simply ordered Xuanwu and Chi Lian to deal with the Demon Beast: "Use talismans to control it, then absorb its Soul and Bloodline Power."

The two of them immediately rushed out, first hurling talismans outward to bind the Demon Beast in place, then Xuanwu used a soul‑catching rope to seize the Beast's Soul, while Chi Lian fully absorbed its Bloodline Power.

The Demon Beast was indeed strong; although trapped by the talismans, it could still roar and sway its body slightly in struggle!

Ye Liuyun, Gu Changhong, Hei Hu and the others were all observing the talismans' effect, discussing the Demon Beast's strength.

"It seems ordinary talismans and rune formations are still insufficient against such a powerful monster!"

"Yes, this may be related to the special nature of their Soul cultivation techniques! Our talismans and rune formations are not that strong in controlling their Soul."

"Rune formations can exert eight or nine levels of power on their Soul, which is sufficient!"

"Encountering stronger Demon Beasts would be dangerous!"

The several of them conducted a detailed analysis of the rune formations' effects on these Demon Beasts.

At this moment, Lei Ming and other Monster Beasts and Kuailei had already nearly eliminated the surrounding Demon Beasts, and they all gathered around that Demon Beast in the center to watch the spectacle.

In the end, the Demon Beast's Soul was withdrawn by Xuanwu, and its Physical Body was absorbed by Chi Lian and turned into jerky.

"Quick, try these fruits! More Demon Beasts are gathering over there!"

Ye Liuyun immediately reached out, sucked in a fruit, examined it with his Golden Pupil, then took a bite.

"What a good thing, it's full of spiritual energy!" Xiao Lanbing couldn't help but exclaim at that moment.

"Not bad, it's a spirit fruit with relatively rich spiritual energy!" Ye Liuyun confirmed after tasting it.

He immediately ordered everyone to block the incoming Demon Beasts, while he began loading the entire fruit forest into the Space World.

This was still the first heavenly material and earthly treasure they had encountered since arriving here. Though they didn't know the name of the spirit fruit, and a single fruit couldn't raise their realms much, it made a fine snack.

Not long after, booming rumblings erupted both inside and outside the fruit forest. Outside, Ye Liuyun and his group were battling Demon Beasts; inside, all the fruit trees were uprooted, and even a layer of soil was stripped away by Ye Liuyun.

Just as Ye Liuyun marveled at having found some good stuff, his Golden Pupil also spotted that there was still something good beneath the fruit forest.

He then slammed his palm downward again; soon, a patch of earth‑yellow crystal stone emerged. Following the trace of this Crystal Stone Mineral Vein, he discovered it was an entire vein.

And within this yellow Crystal Stone Mineral Vein, it was clear that it nurtured even richer spiritual energy.

"Looks like you all will have to hold out for a longer while!"

Ye Liuyun immediately released over three hundred Mercenaries from the Space World, having them help dig the vein.

He himself gave it a try; this yellow crystal stone is perfect for replenishing spiritual energy, requiring almost no conversion and can directly become Divine Core. However, the quantity is not large, and it is not especially concentrated or pure.

Still, it counts as a good thing, not to be wasted; extracting it for everyone to restore True Essence is just right.

With over three hundred Mercenaries working together, the speed increased greatly, and they didn't need to cut it into small pieces; they smashed it into large chunks and directly loaded them into Storage Rings.

Before the second wave of Demon Beasts arrived, they had already mined the entire vein clean.

After scanning the area and finding nothing else of value nearby, Ye Liuyun immediately led everyone away at high speed toward the next target.

Soon, Ye Liuyun discovered

that near the place he was heading, there were already two Human Martial Cultivators who had arrived earlier, slaying the ferocious beasts there.

Ye Liuyun didn't bother with details, immediately leading his men forward; he sent Gu Changhong, Qian Huan and others to deal with the two Martial Cultivators, while he took other people to kill the ferocious beasts and clear the area completely.

Then he turned back, placed Slave Seals on the two Martial Cultivators, and performed a thorough Soul Search to understand the situation here.

The Martial Cultivators who could come here were basically privileged offspring connected to the royal family. Though the place is dangerous, its resources are extremely abundant.

The two he captured were both children of high ministers. One, the son of a senior official in charge of taxes, was named Pang Hongyu; the other, the son of an official handling royal stipends, was named Liu Xingyang.

Although their combat power was not high, they were very experienced in treasure hunting. Moreover, having stayed here long, they indeed knew the origins of many treasures and could pinpoint the locations of some heavenly and earthly treasures.

Ye Liuyun thought it over, temporarily kept the two, intending to have them help him locate resources. However, the resources in their Storage Rings, Ye Liuyun simply accepted with a smile.

He even confiscated their identity Tokens. Yet the two were extremely wealthy; their Storage Rings contained not only many cultivation resources from the Taixu World, but also numerous resources from this Demon Race world.

Ye Liuyun cross‑checked with them one by one, asked about any resources he was unfamiliar with, and only then accepted the resources.

As for their emptied Storage Rings, Ye Liuyun restored them to their original state and returned them, allowing them to continue loading things for him.

Meanwhile, outside the planet where Ye Liuyun's group was, a team of Martial Cultivators led by the Ninth Prince quietly followed.

They had all gone through a hard battle, and their numbers had dwindled. They had lost track of Ye Liuyun while pursuing him, mistakenly thinking he had first gone to a nearer planet and fought several battles with the remaining powerful Demon Beasts there.

But after searching for days without finding any trace of Ye Liuyun, they decided to try a farther planet. Until their Divine Sense detected Ye Liuyun.

Yet Ye Liuyun also discovered them, but he had no intention of provoking them. He still didn't know those people were coming after him.

However, Ye Liuyun soon sensed something amiss; those people suddenly surrounded Ye Liuyun and his group in the middle, clearly intending to act against them.

"Sun Que's resources for forging Kuailei are about to increase again!"

Ye Liuyun showed no intention to evade, merely alerting the others. He even released his Kuailei duplicate and Wang Wenli, letting them help guard against any sneak attacks.

The people sent by the Ninth Divine Son now numbered nine, with six of them belonging to the Cave Heaven Realm, so they didn't attempt a sneak attack; instead they launched a direct ferocious assault, aiming to wipe out Ye Liuyun's group in one blow.
