Chapter 421 421-Floating Nest

~~

Ye chen briefed them on all the matters in the star temple. In reality, with Tong Tian The Leo King, nie Qingyun, great emperor mingwu, and the others present, the star temple could operate as usual even without ye chen.

Little Wing wanted to follow ye chen to the central Empire but ye chen rejected it.

It was better for Little Wing, the golden sun Condor, and one buck to stay in the star Hall. They were all at a critical juncture in their cultivation. Moreover, the star temple could not be without a powerhouse. Tong Tian The Leo King alone was not enough.

"Master said to let big brother ye chen bring little squido along." Little Wing said with a bitter face when it learned that it couldn't go.

"Little squido?" Ye chen was slightly stunned. He then remembered that little squido had been in the soul Pearl for a few months. if we encounter danger, I can't divert my attention to protect little squido. Little squido was still too weak right now.

"Master said that little squido doesn't need protection at all. Little squido is a dusk octopus. Although it can't take part in battle, it's definitely not a problem to stay alive." Little Wing repeated elder Tuntian's words.

Since elder Tuntian had asked him to bring little squido along, he must have had his own intentions.

"Alright, then." Ye chen nodded.

With a whoosh, little squido emerged from the soul Pearl. It blinked its large black eyes and looked around curiously. When it saw ye chen, its eyes instantly narrowed into two lines. It immediately flew over and rubbed its head against ye chen affectionately.

Ye chen and little squido had not seen each other for a long time. When he observed little squido carefully, he realized that little squido had already undergone some changes.

Little squido's strength had already reached the peak of a Mystic cultivator. Its entire body was suffused with a silvery-gray light and was densely covered with a few black patterns. It could actually fly now. Wherever it flew, its body would be shrouded in clouds of rich Water-type celestial Chi. Other than helping little squido fly, this Water-type celestial Chi made little squido look both real and illusionary, making it difficult for people to determine its location.

Even the psyche had a hard time capturing its exact location!

Moreover, little squido should have some unique life-saving means.

Ye chen began to understand why elder Tuntian had said that little squido did not need his protection. Even boundless stage powerhouses would find it difficult to catch little squido, let alone a Demon King. Even if they did, little squido's body was still filled with terrifying poison!

It was no wonder that any dusk octopus could live for a million years. They really did not have any natural enemies.

"Little squido, let's go!" Ye chen said. He bade farewell to Tong Tian The Leo King and the rest of the ye clan members. Then, he rose into the air and set off on his journey.

The disciples of the star temple kept waving their hands as they watched ye chen leave.

Little squido surrounded itself with Water-type celestial Chi. With a whoosh, it turned into a stream of light and followed behind ye chen, disappearing into the horizon.

Ye chen sped in the direction of the central Empire and released his astral body to the maximum, covering an area of two thousand kilometers. He explored the surrounding situation. The more he knew about the surroundings, the more he could determine what to do in the future!

He suddenly discovered to his surprise that even when he used Thunder Dash and reached his fastest speed, little squido was still following behind him at a moderate pace, curiously looking at everything around it.

This little guy still had some strength left!

Little squido's speed surprised even ye chen. He wondered what little squido's fastest movement speed could be.

While ye chen was running, little squido shuttled back and forth, patrolling everything nearby.

Ye chen began to understand what the ancient books said about the dusk octopus being able to travel the world.

Ye chen could not help but be shocked by what he saw with his astral body. In the mountain range, there were black beast silhouettes everywhere, especially in a few valleys. They were densely packed with spirit beasts everywhere. It had simply become a paradise for spirit beasts.

The closer they were to the central Empire, the more high-level soul beasts there were. This further proved that the source of the soul beasts should be in the direction of the central Empire.

As if sensing ye Chen's spying, a deafening roar of a beast came from a deep Mountain Valley. Immediately after, a daemon King rank psyche charged at ye chen.

"It's a daemon King rank soul beast, but it should only be in the beginner stage of the daemon King rank." Ye chen snorted coldly and released his astral body to meet the attack.

There was a loud bang as the daemon King rank spirit beast's psyche exploded and was scattered by ye chen.

A wail came from the valley in the distance.

Ye Chen's figure slowly landed in the valley and saw a five to six-meter-tall spirit beast lying among a large pile of heavenly adept and mystique adept rank spirit beasts, wailing non-stop.

Looking around, ye chen realized that the spirit beasts in this Valley also had a certain social structure. With this beginner daemon King spirit beast as the leader, the mystique adept heavenly adept rank spirit beasts in the valley surrounded and protected this beginner daemon King spirit beast while the other lower-ranked spirit beasts gathered outside the valley.

This was a terrifying discovery. It meant that once a daemon King rank or above soul beast activated it and launched a soul beast horde, its destructive power would be extremely terrifying.

What was even more terrifying was that in the process of hunting and devouring their companions, soul beasts could constantly evolve. In a short period of time, there was already an early stage daemon King Soul beast. As time passed, how much more powerful would it be?

Ye chen growled. He did not hold back at all and swung the demon Wolf manic blade. A red light flashed. pfft, pfft, pfft, " the entire Valley was instantly shrouded in a bloody mist. All the heavenly adept rank spirit beasts were completely slaughtered.

The power of the demon Wolf manic blade was still quite astonishing.

Ye chen looked at the corpses of the spirit beasts all over the valley and frowned. If he did not dispose of these corpses, the low-rank spirit beasts in the outer perimeter would definitely eat these corpses and quickly complete their rank-advancement.

After some thought, ye chen summoned the heaven rumbling cauldron. He wondered if the heaven rumbling cauldron could refine these spirit beasts 'corpses.

Ye chen tried to use his mind to activate the heaven rumbling cauldron. The mouth of the cauldron formed a powerful vortex and swallowed all the spirit beast corpses into the cauldron. The soul Fire burned vigorously. After a while, the spirit beast corpses were all refined into medicinal pills and piled up at the bottom of the heaven rumbling cauldron.

The heaven rumbling cauldron could even refine the corpse of a soul beast! Ye chen was very excited. With this discovery, the star temple would not have to worry about a lack of medicinal pills in the future.

After cleaning up the spirit beasts 'corpses in the valley, ye chen looked around but did not find anything useful.

Suddenly, ye chen sensed some information from little squido. He looked up and saw little squido flying away quickly, already disappearing into the horizon.

Ye chen did not know what little squido had discovered. He rose into the air and used Thunder Dash to give chase.

"Swoosh, Swoosh, Swoosh." The mountains and rivers rapidly receded. Ye chen followed behind little squido and flew for thousands of miles before entering an open, deep valley.

This deep Mountain Valley was filled with dense forests. Originally, this was the best place for mystical beasts to rest and a forbidden zone that humans could not set foot in. However, now, spirit beasts appeared everywhere. They were running in the direction that little squido had flown in. The scene in the distance immediately shocked ye chen.

In the mountains, above the canyon, there was a huge spherical nest floating!

The nest was built with all kinds of solid trees, just like a bird's nest, but it was too big, hundreds of meters high. Moreover, the spherical nest was suspended in the air without any support. It was unknown what kind of force was holding it there.

In the huge nest, Mantis-like soul beasts were constantly busy. Each of these Mantis-like soul beasts was at the beginner daemon King stage. They would fly out from time to time and enter the forest. Soon after, soul beasts above mystique adept rank would be captured by these beginner daemon King stage Mantis soul beasts and brought into the nest.

From time to time, waves of soul beasts "miserable shrieks could be heard from the nest, making people's hair stand on end.

They busied themselves tirelessly. They did not know what was in the nest that had such a large appetite that it had devoured all the mystique adept rank soul beasts.

Ye chen cautiously hid in the distance and released his astral body, wanting to find out what was going on. However, when his astral body touched the nest, he felt that the nest was shrouded in a thick layer of restriction. The astral body that extended out was reflected back. His divine soul was actually unable to break through!

"It's that thing! Someone has taken that thing out of the soul Pagoda!" In the heavenly Astra seal, Master Lion, who sensed all this, said in shock.

"What is it?"

"Do you still remember those golden eggs?"

"I remember. Master Lion, you mean that the things in this nest hatched from the golden egg?"

"Not bad."

"What exactly are those golden eggs hatching?" A bad feeling rose in ye Chen's heart. What could it be that could terrify even master Lion?

"I don't know the truth, but I've heard some legends. Millions of years ago, humans, mystical beasts, and Xuan beasts first discovered spirit beasts in a Hidden Valley. They also discovered a giant nest suspended in the air, much larger than this one. They discovered an extremely terrifying spirit beast that was powerful enough to destroy the three great races. At that time, millions of mysterious God and above experts launched an attack on the spirit beast nest, and in the end, more than half of them were killed or injured. But later, it seems that someone took the eggs that the soul beast laid out of the valley."

back then, there was a piece of core metal in the body of the soul beasts, which was extremely precious. But now, there are Tianyuan ancient coins, Shadow Gold ancient coins, nephrite pearls, and secret technique Jade slips in the heads of the soul beasts. This is beyond my understanding. Perhaps someone did it on purpose. Master Lion said solemnly.

What kind of secret was there? Ye chen frowned and pondered. He looked up at the huge floating nest in the distance and felt a strong sense of uneasiness.

When the nest was overturned, how could the eggs remain intact? if the beast tide of soul beasts wanted to destroy the three major races of humans, demonic beasts, and Xuan beasts, then he and his Star Hall would not be spared.
