Chapter 1107: Three Kings

Deep in the fifth layer of the Blood Rain Wasteland, three figures were besieging a spirit herb.

One of them was extremely powerful, and under his suppression, the battle was one-sided.

Soon, the spirit herb was completely subdued.

These three figures were Ye Yuan, Xiao Yan, and Xiao Huo.

The one with the ferocious combat strength was Xiao Yan.

As soon as the battle began, Ye Yuan was stunned by Xiao Yan's combat ability. He hadn't expected Xiao Yan to be so powerful.

Ye Yuan estimated that Xiao Yan's strength was definitely not inferior to the Ten Great Divine Kings.

Indeed, after giving birth to a spirit, these heavenly spiritual species had awakened their intelligence, and their cultivation speed had advanced by leaps and bounds.

Ye Yuan even felt that if not for the constraints of the Heavenly Dao, Xiao Yan would have already broken through to the Divine Realm.

If Xiao Yan's strength was only at the fifth layer, how powerful were the beings in the sixth layer?

"Xiao Yan, you've really opened my eyes! Without you, capturing this Hunjin Dilicao wouldn't have been easy," Ye Yuan said joyfully.

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Brother Ye Yuan, you came prepared. Even without me, it probably wouldn't have escaped."

This Hunjin Dilicao was also one of the main ingredients for the Inverse Dao Pill.

Ye Yuan came to capture the Hunjin Dilicao, and Xiao Yan followed along, unexpectedly becoming a great help.

Over these days, Xiao Yan had finally learned of Ye Yuan's methods and couldn't help feeling a lingering fear.

He later realized that if he hadn't given birth to a spirit and become friends with Xiao Huo, he would probably have become a medicinal herb in Ye Yuan's storage ring by now.

At that time, he asked Ye Yuan what he would do if he attacked him.

Ye Yuan cheerfully told him about his contingency plans, which scared him badly.

It was then that Xiao Yan discovered that Ye Yuan had long known everything about him.

Although his strength far surpassed Ye Yuan's, if Ye Yuan had truly schemed against him, the outcome would have been uncertain.

After all, everyone has their weaknesses.

Especially since Ye Yuan had thoroughly studied the nine main ingredients of the Inverse Dao Pill, capturing them wasn't too difficult.

Ye Yuan laughed heartily and said, "That may be true, but without you, capturing him would have taken much more effort."

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Heh, in this fifth layer, there aren't many I fear. But... Brother Ye Yuan, are you really going to the sixth layer? Those fellows in the sixth layer aren't easy to deal with."

Ye Yuan nodded and said, "Since the sixth layer has the Shixiang Xianshu, I must go this time."

With Xiao Yan as such a good guide, Ye Yuan naturally wouldn't let the opportunity slip.

Ye Yuan certainly wanted to ask clearly how many of the nine main ingredients were in the Blood Rain Wasteland.

The Hunjin Dilicao was one, and the Shixiang Xianshu was another.

However, the place where the Shixiang Xianshu was located was the more dangerous sixth layer.

When Ye Yuan learned of this, he hesitated for a while but ultimately decided to go.

The nine main ingredients were too rare; once missed, it would be unknown how long before finding them again.

The Blood Rain Wasteland could be said to have the best spiritual herbs in the Divine Realm, yet it only had three kinds, showing how precious they were.

Xiao Yan then asked Xiao Huo, "Brother Ye Yuan is going; you're definitely going too, right?"

Xiao Huo nodded and said, "Of course! Wherever Big Brother goes, I go!"

Xiao Yan sighed and said, "Alright, Brother Ye Yuan, I can't go to the sixth layer, or I'll be directly obliterated by the forbidden power. Take this lotus leaf; use it at a critical moment. It's equivalent to my full-strength strike and might help you escape disaster."

Ye Yuan didn't stand on ceremony. He took the lotus leaf, cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you!"

Xiao Yan was naturally reluctant to part with Xiao Huo, but he knew that they would eventually have to separate.

With Xiao Yan clearing the way, no one dared to provoke Ye Yuan in the fifth layer.

Xiao Yan escorted the two to the entrance of the sixth layer and said reluctantly, "Brother Ye Yuan, Xiao Huo, you must come back to see me!"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, once I find the Shixiang Xianshu, I'll definitely come back to see you."

Watching the two disappear into the teleportation array, Xiao Yan's face was full of loss.

...

Entering the sixth layer, Ye Yuan felt his breathing become a little difficult.

The faint but powerful auras coming from afar sent chills down one's spine.

According to Xiao Yan, the sixth layer had three kings: the Unicorn Cloud Beast, the Drill Sky Rat, and the Heavenly Thunder Purple Bamboo.

The first two were desolate beasts, while the Heavenly Thunder Purple Bamboo was a powerful spirit!

But regardless, all of them had extraordinary strength.

"Big Brother, the three kings are so powerful! As soon as I entered the sixth layer, I felt an urge to prostrate myself!" Xiao Huo said in shock.

Xiao Huo was also a heavenly spiritual species, and his strength was not weak.

Before this, he had never had such a thought.

But now, this thought arose spontaneously in his heart.

Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "Xiao Yan said that the three kings are not Divine Dao experts. Since they aren't, no matter how strong, they couldn't make you feel this way."

Xiao Huo was stunned and said, "Then... what's going on?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the one making you feel this way is probably from the seventh layer! Only this mysterious seventh layer has never been explored. What kind of existence lies within, no one knows. But without a doubt, the existence in the seventh layer must be extremely powerful," Ye Yuan said with a grave expression.

It wasn't just Xiao Huo; Ye Yuan had also sensed it.

As soon as he entered the sixth layer, Ye Yuan felt a terrifying aura trying to make him submit.

But strangely, as soon as this aura touched him, the Soul-Calming Pearl suddenly emitted a strange fluctuation, directly blocking it.

Ye Yuan felt as if that aura had desecrated the Soul-Calming Pearl, angering it.

It seemed that the terrifying aura had offended him.

This discovery astonished Ye Yuan.

The Soul-Calming Pearl was truly an unfathomable existence.

But regardless, that aura could no longer affect Ye Yuan.

"I heard that Zhuge Qingxuan entered the sixth layer. If I'm not mistaken, he was definitely after the Divine Dao. Now it seems that the sixth layer probably doesn't hold the secrets of the Divine Dao, but the seventh layer might. I just don't know if he entered it. Xiao Huo, you should enter the Haotian Tower," Ye Yuan said.

Xiao Huo nodded and was directly taken in by Ye Yuan.

His current state was clearly not suitable for going deeper.

"Xiao Yan said the Shixiang Xianshu is within ten thousand miles of the teleportation array. I'd better find it quickly and leave to avoid complications. Once the three kings are alerted, it won't be good."

Ye Yuan concealed his aura and began searching for the Shixiang Xianshu.
