Chapter 3750: Dragon Pearl Anomaly

Shào Donglái also added: "Not bad, I've heard the elders in my family say it too. The number of people who go in is indeed few."

Moreover, that place is actually far more dangerous than you imagine; even a strong practitioner of the Cave Heaven Realm wouldn't dare to venture there lightly.

Our family has organized three expedition teams to go in, almost all of them were Cave Heaven Realm strongmen; the highest was an Elder of the Fifth Layer of the Cave Heaven Realm, and that expedition was completely wiped out, while in the other two the returnees were less than thirty percent.

The treasures we found were decent, but the cost was too great, so we stopped sending people afterward."

After Shào Donglái finished speaking, it actually sparked more interest among everyone; they all thought that dangerous places hold opportunities. Since Shào Donglái said "the treasures we found were decent," that clearly means they were indeed good.

Shào Donglái is a scion of a great clan; he looks down on ordinary things, but the others are still very interested.

So the group wrapped up hastily and rushed to the merchant guild to purchase some needed supplies to prepare for the danger.

Ye Liuyun had nothing to buy, but he followed the group to the merchant guild to stroll around, discovered that many Dragon Pearls were on sale, and bought some outright for Long Nv, Lei Ming, and the Nine‑Head Demon Dragon to use in cultivation.

Then he had Lei Ming and Long Nv help the women buy many clothes, seasonings, and other items. They have Clone Puppets for protection, and their gear and talismans are never lacking, so there's nothing to prepare. Unlike Xiāo Qíng and others, who still need to stock extra treasures for survival.

After everyone finished buying, they left the city, boarded a Flying Boat, and set off, so they could recover some of the battle wear on the road.

Ye Liuyun also led the group back into the Space World to cultivate.

Kuailei Gu Changhong has already been re‑crafted by Sun Que Yi, astonishingly transformed into a Sixth Layer Cave Heaven Realm Kuailei. Qian Meng was turned into a Fifth Layer one, already reaching the limit. They are now rushing to remodel the Demon King and Bà Tiān.

After returning, Ye Liuyun didn't idle; he found some First and Second Layer Cave Heaven Realm Kuailei to spar with, continuously consuming and replenishing Divine Core.

Less than two days passed outside, and their Flying Boat came to a halt. Ye Liuyun also led the group outside the boat to survey the planet before them.

The entire planet was a dead, oppressive place, with ruin everywhere.

In the beginning, the Dragon Clan was overly powerful and disregarded other races, which led to a joint siege by all the races. In that battle, over ten thousand ancestral dragons of the Dragon Clan fell, severely sapping the clan's vitality. Since then, successive Dragon Clan chiefs have preserved this relic to warn future generations not to repeat the same mistake.

Later, the relic became a playground for many Dragon Clan disciples to explore; the earliest explorers recovered many Dragon Clan warriors' bones and Yin Souls, and brought them back to the Dragon Tomb for burial.

However, because the number of Dragon Clan participants was huge and scattered, many still remain here, and it is said that the Dragon God who fought for the Dragon Clan also stayed here, though its Physical Body has never been found.

"Will that Dragon God perhaps leave a trap to slay us non‑Dragon Martial Cultivators?" Jīn Biāo asked Wàn Xīnghǎi.

"It is said the Dragon God that fought here is not the one who provoked war and sought to exterminate other races. Still, given its power, you'd better pray not to encounter it," Wàn Xīnghǎi told the group.

At that moment, within Ye Liuyun's Space World, the Dragon Soul inside the ancient Dragon Pearl seemed to sense something, slowly opening its eyes and beginning to move within the Dragon Clan.

Ye Liuyun sensed the Dragon Pearl's anomaly but did not speak of it.

"Perhaps here we can truly find some opportunities that would let Long Nv and the others boost their strength."

So, with a tentative mindset, he and the group landed on this planet together.

Their landing site was a battlefield ruin, where the skeletons had long decayed yet their shapes were still faintly discernible. Some skeletons were huge, likely of the Beast Race; others, after decay, were still covered with rust‑stained fragments of battle armor, likely of the Human Race.

Abandoned weapons were often seen on the ground, but most had corroded beyond use. There were also some objects resembling large shields.

According to Wàn Xīnghǎi, those were dragon scales shed by powerful ancestral dragons. However, after such ages, they crumble to ash at a touch, far less solid than stone.

After searching, the group found nothing of value, so they split into two teams to explore ahead, keeping distance to support each other.

Yet before they went far, a gust of Yin wind rose from the plain, scattering the decayed bones into the sky. The surrounding air temperature dropped sharply, the chill pressing in.

"Watch out for Yin Souls!"

Everyone shielded their bodies with True Essence, standing ready.

Ye Liuyun communicated with Sun Que Yi, releasing the Divine Souls of the Demon King and Bà Tiān puppets. Their puppet Physical Bodies are being forged, and in their Divine Soul state they can devour some Yin Souls.

Sure enough, after the Yin wind, a swarm of Yin Souls appeared before Ye Liuyun, including both beasts and humans, staring at them intently.

These Yin Souls, having roamed here for a long time, have had their strength greatly weakened and their minds are not very clear, though their killing intent and resentment remain strong.

After sensing the aura of the Underworld Lord on Ye Liuyun, they hesitated, unsure whether to charge, but the Yin Souls confronting Shào Donglái and the others had already surged forward.

"Master, these beings were very powerful in life, but now they have been greatly weakened!" the Demon King immediately told Ye Liuyun.

"Can you handle them?" Ye Liuyun asked the Demon King and Bà Tiān for confirmation.

"No problem!" the two replied instantly, faces excited. After absorbing these Yin Souls, their strength will increase considerably.

"Then go ahead, it's all yours!" Ye Liuyun handed all these Yin Souls over to the Demon King and Bà Tiān to devour.

The two formed a black shadow, charging toward the Yin Souls. Seeing Ye Liuyun unmoving, the Yin Souls shed their hesitation and rushed toward the Demon King and Bà Tiān.

However, the Demon King and Bà Tiān's Yin Souls were clearly far stronger, enveloping the Yin Souls within their own and devouring them one by one.

Ye Liuyun also released the Vermilion Bird to help Shào Donglái and the others ease some pressure. Though they have treasures to combat Yin Souls, the sheer number of Yin Souls can still assault their Divine Souls.

When the Vermilion Bird struck, it unleashed a sea of fire that burned Divine Souls, engulfing many Yin Souls and averting a great crisis.

Ye Liuyun stood with a few companions, feeling the changes of the ancient Dragon Pearl, watching whether it could guide him.

After the Dragon God within moved its body, it finally sensed, using Divine Sense to communicate with Ye Liuyun, pointing him toward a direction.

Ye Liuyun wanted to ask what lay there, whether there was danger, but the Dragon Soul gave no reply.
