Chapter 1465: A Genius Idea

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

…

One after another, the powerful demons shot forward like lightning to where Ye Yuan and the other had stood, only to see their backs as they leaped off the cliff.

Xiu Lie's face was as dark as water as he said, "Just two early-stage Heaven Insight cultivators? How did they silently wipe out five squads?"

"Sir, perhaps… they had others? Two mere human Heaven Insight martial artists, no matter how strong, couldn't have annihilated five squads alone," said a subordinate.

Xiu Lie nodded and sighed, "It seems… our position has been exposed. A surprise attack on Xiyu City is no longer possible. Ten years of effort, all wasted!"

The others were equally disappointed. They had been looking forward to this battle, only for news to leak at the last moment, ruining their chance for military merit.

What they didn't know was that they had been very close to success.

It was just that Ye Yuan had happened to get lost and come to this area, running into the five squads sent to scout.

Otherwise, how could Ling Feng and the others have managed to send word back?

"Notify Sha Yan that the surprise force here is useless. We'll have to join forces for a full assault," Xiu Lie said solemnly.

He glanced at the bottomless chasm and snorted coldly, "Those two brats got off easy!"

…

After Ye Yuan and the other leaped off the cliff, their bodies fell at a terrifying speed.

The speed was more than ten times faster than their normal descent.

The terrible gravitational field made it impossible even to adjust their falling posture.

Ling Feng was in despair. He felt that before they even hit the bottom, his body would be destroyed by the immense gravitational force.

The further down they went, the stronger the gravitational force and the faster the speed. Ling Feng felt as if all his blood vessels were about to burst.

In such a situation, he couldn't even cry out.

Suddenly, Ling Feng's expression changed. His falling speed was actually slowing down, and the gravitational force on him was weakening!

This shock was no small matter!

The further down this chasm, the more terrifying the gravitational field, completely beyond human resistance.

Ling Feng knew that a Divine Lord realm expert had once tried to explore the depths of this chasm but never returned.

Since then, no one had dared to attempt anything with this chasm.

Ling Feng turned to look at Ye Yuan, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Ye Yuan's eyes were tightly shut, and a strange force field emanated from his body.

Ling Feng hadn't noticed before, but now he suddenly realized that this strange force field was rapidly growing stronger!

And this force field was clearly the reason their falling speed had slowed.

Ling Feng suddenly felt that the force field around them was like a spring—the further down they went, the stronger it became.

Finally, their bodies came to an abrupt halt, suspended in mid-air!

Ling Feng stared at Ye Yuan in shock and said, "You… how did you do it?"

With a thought, a wooden stick appeared in Ye Yuan's hand—it was the Yuan Magnetic Spirit Wood!

"This natural chasm contains a bizarre force field, which is a great tonic for my Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood. The deeper we go, the stronger the force field becomes, and the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood grows wildly. Now, it has finally reached a balance." Ye Yuan said with a smile.

Ye Yuan had always carried the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood with him, but it had been stuck at the peak of the ninth rank, unable to break through to the divine level.

This time, encountering this strange gravitational field was an opportunity for the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood.

Originally, Ye Yuan had planned to come here sometime to let the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood absorb magnetic force and evolve.

But plans couldn't keep up with changes; he hadn't expected they would be discovered so quickly.

With no way out, Ye Yuan had no choice but to take a risk and jump directly into the chasm.

Sure enough, the force field here did not disappoint him.

The deeper he went, the faster the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood evolved.

In just a short while, under this terrifying force field, the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood had directly broken through two ranks, reaching the second level of the divine rank!

Ling Feng stared at the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood, his mouth agape in shock.

Cold sweat broke out on his back, and he looked at Ye Yuan with a strange expression, saying, "You... you used the gravitational field of the chasm to evolve the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood?"

He hadn't been too scared just now, but thinking back, Ling Feng felt his legs go weak.

What if the evolution had failed? Wouldn't they both have fallen to their deaths?

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Under those circumstances, did we have any other choice? The one chasing us was a half-step demigod-level demon!"

Ling Feng opened his mouth but said nothing.

Indeed, this was the best option.

Most importantly, they had won the gamble!

But this guy, though he looked young and inexperienced, was truly crazy in his actions!

Perhaps that was why he had thought of joining the human army?

"But... even if you have the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood, how did you manage it?" Ling Feng asked in astonishment.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "I was thinking about this problem when I saw the demon flying boat earlier. The gravitational field of this chasm is so strong; if they can fly across it, they must be using this gravitational field! So I thought, if I could also create a gravitational field, maybe it would repel this one and allow us to float in the air! Hey, I tried it, and it worked! The demon flying boat must also have a gravitational field built into it, allowing them to cross the chasm!"

Ling Feng was dumbfounded. This guy was a genius!

It had taken the demons countless years to come up with this method, yet Ye Yuan had cracked it in a second.

It sounded simple, but achieving it was no easy feat.

The gravitational field of this chasm was too powerful; to counteract it, one couldn't just build a flying boat with a random force field.

A slight miscalculation would result in the destruction of the boat and the death of its occupants.

If it weren't for that, the demons wouldn't have spent so many years researching such a small flying boat.

Ye Yuan could achieve this because his control over the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood had already reached a level of mastery.

During the fall, Ye Yuan had been constantly adjusting the gravitational field of the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood, trying to achieve a balance with the chasm's gravitational field.

In the meantime, the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood was evolving wildly; accomplishing this in just a few breaths was simply incredible.

Seeing Ling Feng's expression, Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Let's go. It's getting late. We'll bypass this section and go up, so we don't walk into a trap. Oh, Captain Ling, I hope you can keep the matter of the Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood confidential."

Ling Feng was taken aback, then nodded.

The Primordial Magnetic Spirit Wood, having evolved to the second level of the divine rank, was a formidable treasure and could even become one of Ye Yuan's trump cards.

Naturally, Ye Yuan wouldn't want others to know about such a thing.

He and Ye Yuan were only casual acquaintances, not close friends; it was already remarkable that Ye Yuan had saved his life.

After all, under these circumstances, the more people, the greater the danger.
