566 Chapter 566
~~
There was a tall mountain to the North of the Tian Yuan continent. The mountain was covered in ice and snow all year round. It was an extremely cold place, and people below the divine sea realm were unable to climb up.
In a Valley near the highest point of the mountain, a magnificent ice Palace completely made of ice stood in the snow.
The wind and snow whistled, and the temperature was extremely low. An ordinary cultivator would shiver in the cold here, but the temperature outside could be considered warm when compared to the temperature inside the Ice Palace.
At this moment, three figures appeared in the distant World of Ice and snow, slowly approaching the Ice Palace.
Ye Meng and ye Xuan ascended this mountain under the lead of a Dao profound realm martial artist Under Ling Yu. If not for this Dao profound realm martial artist holding up a protective restriction for them, the two of them would have long been frozen into ice sculptures.
One had to know that even spirit sea or mysterious God level cultivators would be frozen by the cold here, not to mention ye Meng and ye Xuan’s low cultivation.
Ye Meng and ye Xuan looked around at their surroundings. They had gained a lot of knowledge over the past few days, and had gained a lot of understanding of the Tian Yuan continent.
Seeing the Ice Palace hidden in the snow from a distance, both ye Meng and ye Xuan felt a little excited, but at the same time, they also felt some respect, wondering what kind of person their master would be.
“Who are you?” A deep and solemn voice resounded through the snow. The voice was like the voice of a God, echoing throughout the entire Valley.
Ye Meng and the other two immediately felt a powerful aura rush towards them. It was as if the other party could kill them with a single thought.
Sensing the might the other party emitted, the Dao profound realm martial artist’s expression changed slightly. He immediately knelt down towards the Ice Palace in the distance and said with a very respectful tone, ” “Respected Lord Snow Emperor, I am Lord Lingyu’s subordinate.”
Seeing the Dao profound martial artist like this, ye Meng and ye Xuan also quickly knelt down.
Upon hearing that they were Ling Yu’s men, the snow Emperor’s intimidating aura receded a little, and his voice also became much gentler. He asked, ” “What are you here for?”
“Lord Lingyu said that he had found two disciples for Lord Snow Emperor, so he asked me to bring them here to have an audience with Lord Snow Emperor.” That Dao profound martial artist immediately answered.
“Two disciples? Their cultivation hasn’t even reached the divine sea realm!” The snow Emperor’s voice was ethereal and carried a hint of indifference.
Your Highness snow Emperor, although they have not even reached the divine sea realm, they are all geniuses with an Astral Soul Fusion rate of over 50! That Dao profound martial artist hurriedly explained.
“A genius with an Astral Soul Fusion rate of over 50?” The snow Emperor didn’t seem to believe him.
A moment later, amidst the snow and ice, two Astral Soul crystals flew towards ye Meng and ye Xuan. They landed in front of them and both of them emitted a dazzling light.
Astral Soul Fusion degree: 53, Astral Soul Fusion degree: 56!
As expected, they were all geniuses above 50!
Even the snow Emperor could not help but be slightly shocked. Geniuses with an Astral Soul Fusion rate of more than 50 had long been recruited by the major combat divisions. The snow Emperor was independent of the various battalions, and it was extremely difficult for him to recruit disciples with an Astral Soul Fusion rate of more than 50. However, Ling Yu had actually managed to find two for him.
Although ye Meng and ye Xuan hadn’t even reached the spirit sea realm, it would only take the snow Emperor a few days to help them reach the spirit sea realm. Ye Meng and ye Xuan’s cultivation was very low, which proved that they had not been marked by other forces.
“Let them in. Go back and tell Lingyu that he has done a good job.” The snow Emperor’s tone was filled with admiration.
The Dao profound realm martial artist had a look of joy on his face. He bowed in acknowledgment and then cupped his hands at ye Meng and ye Xuan.”The two of you, I’ll send you off here first. I wish you a bright future!” The Dao profound realm martial artist removed the protection that enveloped ye Meng and ye Xuan, and the snow that filled the sky immediately fell.
When ye Meng and ye Xuan saw that the protective barrier had been removed, they were already prepared to face the cold. They did not expect that even though the snow fell on their faces and bodies, they did not feel the cold at all. Instead, it was like a spring breeze brushing against their faces. They could not help but reveal a trace of surprise.
They looked at the Ice Palace in the distance. The majestic Ice Palace revealed its magnificent outline, like a Celestial Palace. The palace door was open, waiting for them to enter.
The ice and snow on this mountain were probably under the control of the snow Emperor, which was why they didn’t feel cold. Ye Meng and ye Xuan were filled with respect for their future master, and they wondered what the mysterious Ice Palace was like.
Ye Meng and ye Xuan looked at each other, determination in their eyes as they walked through the snow towards the Ice Palace.
Soon, ye Meng and ye Xuan’s figures disappeared into the snow, and the two long lines of footprints left on the ground were quickly covered by the snow.
The Dao profound realm martial artist watched ye Meng and ye Xuan disappear at the end of the ice and snow. Only then did he bow respectfully to the Ice Palace and then turn to leave.
Ye chen was in the sacred city of Yanyun. He soon received news that ye Meng and ye Xuan had become the disciples of the snow Emperor, Ye Peng and ye mu had become the disciples of Emperor Qian, and Ji Lei had become the disciple of the lion clan’s Emperor Qiu.
These combat emperors had all established their own factions outside of their respective combat divisions. The snow Emperor and Emperor Qian had never found a suitable disciple, while Emperor Qiu only had one disciple with an Astral Soul Fusion rate of more than fifty. They were all in urgent need of a suitable successor, but they were very strict when it came to choosing a disciple. They would never accept a disciple who had already joined a combat division and had been branded by the various combat divisions.
Knowing that ye Meng, ye Xuan, Ye Peng, ye mu, and Ji Lei had found a good place to go, ye chen could finally relax. With the 2.5 billion Phantom Gold he had obtained, coupled with the considerable amount he had earned from the recent sale of manors, ye chen had managed to gather 3.5 billion Phantom Gold. He immediately sent Gu Fei, Gu LAN, and the others to the eastern continent to extradite more ye clan members.
3.5 billion is enough to lead 350 people to the Tian Yuan continent!
Just as ye chen was busy preparing the funds to ferry the clansmen, a series of fierce curses came from the one word Tavern.
“What’s going on? A bunch of good-for-nothings, can’t even do this little thing well!” These days, he had been constantly gathering funds. After Yu Xuan left, he sent three more groups of people to Dongchuan continent. However, after those three groups of people left, there was no news from them, not even a sound.
The first group consisted of Two Spirit sea realm experts, the second group consisted of five spirit sea realm experts, and the third group consisted of one Spirit Xuan expert and two Spirit sea realm experts. They had almost exhausted all of their liquid funds, but after leaving for the eastern continent, there had been no news of them, and no one had returned.
Yi Yan was very puzzled. Why did even those at the divine profound realm not return? Could it be that ye chen had hidden a powerhouse that surpassed the mysterious God grade in the eastern continent?
“Brother yiyan, I’ve just received news that ye chen has gathered three and a half billion in funds. He’s preparing to lead his clan members to the Tian Yuan continent on a large scale.” Xu Qing came in hurriedly from outside and frowned when he saw Yi Yan.
“3.5 billion Shadow Gold?” Yi Yan gasped and said in disbelief, ” where did he get so much money?!
Even if ye chen had sold many manors to the outside world, Xu Qing and ye chen had calculated that ye chen had only gotten more than one billion pieces of Twilight Gold!
Ye chen had actually taken out 3.5 billion in one go. This caught Yi Yan by surprise.
That was a total of 3.5 billion Shadow Gold!
Even if Yi Yan sold all the land in his hands, he wouldn’t be able to gather so much money. According to the price of the land that Lingyu had offered, the total value of his land was only 2.5 billion Shadow Gold. Xu Qing had even more land in his hands, worth about 3.5 billion Shadow Gold.
“I heard that ye chen sold six Dao artifacts to Ling Yu. Each Dao artifact was sold for three hundred million Phantom Gold.” Xu Qing said. What Xu Qing didn’t know was that the matter of buying and selling Dao artifacts was purely false. It was made up by Ling Yu and his subordinates to spread it on purpose. However, when Xu Qing heard the news, he believed it. After all, it was a fact that ye chen had gained so much money out of thin air.
“A Dao artifact for three hundred million Shadow Gold? Who did you hear this from?” Yi Yan frowned. A Dao artifact was worth at least one billion on the market.
I heard from Ling Yu’s men that Ling Yu has been in contact with ye chen recently and has made a lot of money from ye chen, so their relationship has improved a lot. Xu Qing told him the news he had received.
“Lingyu is a businessman. He bought so many doctrine artifacts from ye chen at a low price. How could their relationship not be better? Where did that brat ye chen get so many doctrine artifacts? Also, there’s something strange about the human tier purple Demon Armor that he has.” Yi Yan said after a moment of silence.
“Could it be that kid ye chen found some treasure in the eastern continent?” Xu Qing said as his heart moved.
“It’s possible!” Yi Yan said in a deep voice. The Dao artifact and human tier purple Demon Armor in ye Chen’s hands should be from the eastern continent.
“Are we going to the eastern continent in person?” Xu Qing was silent for a moment before saying, ” we’ve sent spirit Xuan cultivators over before but they still died in the eastern continent. It’s clear that ye chen still has some business in the eastern continent. Unless we personally go out, I’m afraid we can’t deal with him at all!
“If we were to go personally, with our cultivation levels, a trip to the Tian Yuan continent would cost us two hundred million Phantom Gold. A round trip would cost us eight hundred million Phantom Gold!” Yi Yan hesitated for a moment and said. He did not have that much money on hand.
“We’ll spend eight hundred million. As long as we can stop ye Chen’s clan before they reach the Tian Yuan continent, then the three point five billion Twilight Gold they have will be ours!” Xu Qing’s eyes lit up, and he said excitedly. He had been planning for a long time after he got the news. In this way, even if there were no treasures in the eastern continent, they would not lose out!
“Do you have any information on when they will leave?” His words were also somewhat moved. If they could succeed, this was definitely a deal that they could only profit from. Just ye chen alone had a total of 3.5 billion Phantom Gold!
“Of course. I bribed one of ye Chen’s men. Even Lingyu has one.” Xu Qing smiled mysteriously and said proudly.
