Seeing that the red Spirit beast was chasing after him, ye chen quickly increased his speed and flew away.
That Red Spirit beast was left far behind, disappearing into the distant horizon. Although the red soul beast had a strong body, it was still inferior to the transcendent stage experts of humans, mystical beasts, and celestial beasts in some aspects.
It seemed that it was impossible for it to catch up. Ye chen heaved a sigh of relief. He sensed that little squido was already flying toward him. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of him.
He had still underestimated this little fellow. Its movement speed was truly unparalleled.
Little squido handed over the heaven-earth bag with a smile, appearing to be in high spirits.
Ye chen took the heaven-earth pouch from little squido. He wondered what little squido had managed to grab. He peeked into the heaven-earth pouch and realized that it was filled to the brim. When he saw the contents of the heaven-earth pouch, ye chen was stunned for a moment. He did not expect little squido to be so fast. In such a short time, it had managed to get so many things.
Little squido blinked its eyes and landed on ye Chen's shoulder affectionately.
"This is for you." Ye chen took out two cosmic stones from his heaven-earth pouch and handed them to little squido. use these two cosmic stones first. When you're done using them, you can ask me for more. There are so many cosmic stones. If you use them too much, the effects will decrease. Why don't you share them with the others in the celestial Temple? I'll reward you when I have good things in the future!
With that, ye chen reached out and patted little squido's head.
Little squido's two tentacles were wrapped around the two cosmic stones. Its eyes narrowed into a smile as it nodded in satisfaction.
Ye chen did a quick count. The entire heaven-earth pouch contained more than two hundred and thirty cosmic stones, eight tier nine purple Demon Armor components, seventeen tier eight purple Demon Armor components, and a few hundred Twilight Gold ancient coins, nephrite pearls, and a few thousand Tianyuan ancient coins.
Among these items, the most useless were the Tianyuan ancient coins. The rest were all good stuff, especially the components of the purple Demon Armor!
Ye chen had replaced all the tier eight purple Demon Armor components he was wearing with tier nine ones. In this way, other than the full set of tier nine purple Demon Armor components he was wearing, he was left with four tier nine purple Demon Armor components and twenty-one tier eight purple Demon Armor components. He could form three complete sets of purple Demon Armor, so he had four left!
With a full set of tier nine purple Demon Armor, he was not even afraid of a sixth or seventh grade boundless stage powerhouse!
He did not expect to have such a great harvest from the floating nest. It was much more than what he had gained from the soul Pagoda!
With ye Chen's current strength, it was impossible for him to break through and enter the floating nest. It was all thanks to little squido.
Ye Chen's heart could not help but turn heavy at the thought of the terrifying Red Mantis spirit beast. If the Red Mantis spirit beast continued to grow, it would become a peerless and tyrannical existence. At that time, it would be a devastating disaster for humans, mystical beasts, and celestial beasts.
Ye chen was powerless to reverse the situation on his own, so he could only bring the news to tantai Ling.
The imperial capital of the central Empire.
This was a huge and majestic city. Before the soul beast tide arrived, the population was already as large as seventy to eighty million. After the soul beast tide arrived, the population rapidly increased to hundreds of millions.
The outer walls of the imperial capital were made of black Darksteel. They were hundreds of meters tall and played a great role in fending off the soul beast tide.
The arrival of the soul beast tide had given the various forces a strong sense of danger. They could no longer hide from the world. Once they were isolated in the wilderness, the number of disciples under them would definitely decrease, and eventually, they would not be able to take over. They would die one day, so they also moved their respective headquarters to the imperial capital.
For a time, various forces of the central Empire gathered, with the law enforcement Hall as the leader, followed by the Temple of War, the spirit treasures Pavilion, and the city of the medicine King.
With the addition of these forces, the imperial capital could be said to be as stable as Mount Tai. However, with the arrival of these forces, the central Empire's royal family suddenly became dispensable. Many members of the royal family had become the puppets of the major forces.
Fortunately, due to the threat of the soul beast horde, the various forces tacitly maintained a balance and did not allow the central Empire's Army to rebel.
From afar, ye chen could sense godly venerable rank and daemon King rank auras densely covering the imperial capital's walls, intimidating the spirit beasts outside. The defense of the central Empire's imperial capital was much tighter than that of star temple.
Ye chen entered the capital city through a small, tightly guarded door.
As they walked, the streets were packed with people. It was almost overcrowded. The topic of most discussion was naturally the soul beast tide that had appeared out of nowhere.
I heard that other than the imperial capital, there are only six cities left in the entire central Empire that are still being defended. Someone said worriedly.
the beast tide of soul beasts is too terrifying. Too many people have died from the unnatural deaths. some people sighed with lingering fear. The scene of the overwhelming attack of soul beasts was like a nightmare, playing out in their hearts from time to time, and it was difficult to erase.
"Oh heavens, why did such a terrifying soul beast appear? When will this disaster end?" Some of them had faces full of sorrow as they questioned the heavens. They couldn't help but feel grief when they thought of their dead relatives and friends.
will this disaster ever end? " some people muttered to themselves, their eyes full of despair.
Ye Chen's heart was heavy as he walked on the street.
The soul beast tide had slaughtered tens of billions of humans, demon beasts, and celestial beasts. Other than a few cities, other places were like locusts. Countless lives had been reaped, leaving only ruins behind. The few cities that were still defending were occupied by some ancient families and ancient bloodlines. Only then could they resist the attack of the soul beast tide.
In the chaotic world, life was like grass. Most of the people who died were ordinary people without any martial skills. Most of the people who could retreat to the city had more or less cultivated some cultivation methods and martial skills.
The entire world seemed to be undergoing a cruel survival of the fittest.
Although the imperial capital was crowded, it wasn't too chaotic. After all, several superpowers controlled the city, so everything was still in order.
In this moment of life and death, the practice of martial arts was prevalent. Many martial artists began to organize themselves to go out into the wild to hunt soul beasts. Other than wanting to contribute to the disaster, it was also because soul beasts 'meat was too precious. As long as they had a constant supply of soul beasts' meat, their cultivation base could continue to improve.
Only by constantly becoming stronger would there be hope for survival.
In addition to hunting soul beasts outside, one could also exchange for soul beast meat in the city with spirit treasures, pills, Tianyuan ancient coins, and other items.
As time passed, the Tianyuan ancient coins gradually became the currency in circulation in the imperial capital of the central Empire.
The changes in the central Empire's imperial capital could not help but cause ye chen to feel a little apprehensive. Thousands of thoughts ran through his mind. The Tianyuan ancient coins, cosmic stones, soul beasts, and the purple Demon Armor Suan ni seemed to have vaguely grasped something but it was fleeting and elusive.
Entering the inner city of the central Empire, there were spirit treasures Pavilion and shops opened by the city of the medicine King everywhere. As long as you had Tianyuan ancient coins, Twilight Gold ancient coins, and any other items, you could exchange spirit treasures and elixirs with them.
Ye chen changed his appearance and turned into an ordinary middle-aged man. He walked into a shop in the spirit artifact Council and took out the red inscription card given by elder Zi Lin. He found elder Zi Lin.
"It's you. Long time no see." When elder Zi Lin saw ye chen, he immediately flashed a warm smile. Ye chen was a big customer. Because of the last deal, his status in the spirit artifact Council had risen by two ranks. He wondered how much business ye chen would bring him this time.
"I would like to ask elder Zi Lin for a favor. I've already become familiar with elder Zi Lin, so I don't want to look for anyone else." Ye chen said to Zi Lin.
"As long as I, Zi Lin, can do it, I will definitely do my best to serve Your Excellency!" Zi Lin replied with a smile. It seemed that ye chen would only acknowledge his family. He was overjoyed. He could not let the other elders of the spirit artifact Council take away this business.
"I need to exchange for a large number of Chi deposition pills. I'd like to ask elder Zi Lin to help me make a trip."
"You'll have to go to the city of the medicine King to trade for Chi-amassing pills, but that's no problem. I'll just make the trip for you. How many Chi-amassing pills do you need?" Zi Lin said with a smile. He did not expect ye chen to need a low-level medicinal pill like the Chi-amassing pill. Helping ye chen make this trip was a good opportunity to build a relationship with ye chen.
"More than ten million. If you have it, I'd like to buy fifty million Chi-amassing pills," Ye chen said calmly. He needed a large amount of Chi deposition pills to activate the demon suppressing watch. The demon suppressing watch was one of his important backup plans. In terms of the demon suppressing watch's consumption rate, fifty million Chi deposition pills was not a lot.
"What?" When Zi Lin heard ye Chen's words, he almost stumbled. He looked at ye chen in disbelief, thinking that he had heard wrong. how much? "
"Is fifty million Chi-amassing pills very difficult?" Ye chen asked, frowning.
Only then did Zi Lin realize that he had lost his composure. However, when he heard ye Chen's number, he could not calm down.'Oh my God, that's fifty million Chi-amassing pills!' Such a deal would probably alarm the higher-ups of the city of the medicine King!
"What do you want in exchange?" Zi Lin asked cautiously, " due to the arrival of the soul beast tide, all kinds of resources are rather scarce now. The price of Qi condensation pills has increased by more than several times.
"I'll use this item to exchange for it, how about it?" Ye chen took out an ordinary soul Jade. The number of soul jades in the space of his armguard was outrageous. There were more than ten thousand pieces. A small portion of them was the more valuable soul Jade essence. These were all obtained from the tomb when he met Zhu Gonggong the last time. It seemed that he only needed to take out a small portion of the soul Jade to exchange for fifty million Chi-amassing pills.
Zi Lin saw the soul Jade in ye Chen's hand and recognized it at a glance. He was an outer sect elder of the spirit artifact Council and was quite familiar with all kinds of treasures. When he saw the soul Jade, he was excited. This soul Jade could nourish psyche. To celestial beasts, its value was no less than cosmic stones!
Although most of the Xuan beasts were reclusive, they had a long life. They often sat on treasure mountains, and soul Jade could be exchanged for many treasures.
As one of the many superpowers, the spirit treasures Pavilion could contact those Xuan beasts. As far as he knew, there were many Xuan beasts in the imperial capital. They could transform into human forms and looked almost the same as humans.
"A piece of soul Jade like this can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of Chi deposition pills!" Zi Lin rubbed his hands excitedly and said, " I'll go and help Your Excellency contact the exchange matters. The price of the Chi deposition pill had skyrocketed, but the price of a good item like the soul Jade had also increased by several times. There was demand but no supply!
