The room was filled with the profound mysteries of darkness and wind that whistled through the air. Ye Chen put Ye Luo behind him as a hint of seriousness flashed past his eyes.

"This is bad!" Suddenly, Ye Chen's face changed. All of the green flames around him soared to the sky, forming a wall of fire that protected him and Ye Luo behind him.

What shocked him the most was that behind the Xiao Feng, a ten feet tall black rat revealed a sinister expression. It opened its mouth and started to frantically draw out the surrounding spirit energy, setting off gusts of wind.

The enchantments that Ye Chen had set up immediately started to shake, as though they were going to break at any time. Ye Chen could only barely resist the aura of the Xiao Feng, but he still continued to retreat.

"The Spirit Erosion Mouse is born from devouring Beast Clan cores and spirit crystals. Upon breaking through now, the Xiao Feng would definitely need a vast amount of nature's spirit energy." Ye Chen's eyes lit up as he immediately took out all the cores and spirit crystals from the Spatial Ring and threw them towards the direction of the Xiao Feng.

He saw the black rat shadow devour the crystal core greedily like a hungry ghost, and the black mouse shadow was still increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it was going to destroy the room. The enchantments had already been broken, and a terrifying aura swept in all directions.

Ye Chen was extremely nervous. Once the barrier was broken, the experts of the Tianlan Prefecture would definitely sense that with the talent of the Xiao Feng, it would definitely cause many people of the Human Clan to covet it.

However, what surprised Ye Chen was that the aura disappeared in less than a breath's time. Looking back, the black mouse behind the Xiao Feng had already disappeared, so Ye Chen hurriedly laid a few enchantments on the ground to hide Ye Luo's aura.

"Boss." Suddenly, a childish voice sounded out in Ye Chen's mind, causing him to jump in fright. When his gaze landed on the Xiao Feng on his shoulder, he snapped back to reality and asked: "Xiao Feng, is that you?"

"It's me." The Xiao Feng flipped a few times in the air, looking very pleased. His body still did not change, but Ye Chen was sure that the Xiao Feng had undergone a qualitative transformation.

Ye Chen sized up the Xiao Feng, and upon seeing that there was nothing abnormal with it, he relaxed and asked: "Xiao Feng, what is your current cultivation level?"

"If we judge by the standards of your Human Clan, it should be ordinary Void Spirit Stage." The Xiao Feng's voice sounded in Ye Chen's mind.

Ye Chen nodded his head, although others may think that the Xiao Feng was just a normal Spirit Corroding Rat, Ye Chen knew, for a Heavenly Beast to care so much for it and even use its life to protect it, the Xiao Feng must not be as simple as it seemed.

"By the way, Xiao Feng, what happened after you were entangled by the Blood Cliff?" Ye Chen suddenly thought of something and asked.

The Xiao Feng waved its fists, and with a look of extreme anger, it said: "That day at Blood Cliff, although I was unable to do anything to him, that bastard was still unable to break through my defense."

Speaking till here, Ye Chen's face revealed a strange smile. Although the Xiao Feng's defense was not considered heaven defying, it was still not that simple to break through his defense.

After that, the Xiao Feng explained the situation to Ye Chen in detail. It turned out that after fighting fiercely for a few hours, the Xiao Feng and Blood Cliff were powerless against each other. When Blood Cliff saw that an Eclipse Spirit Rat was actually so powerful, he was sure that it wanted to take it back for his use.

Even the Xiao Feng were surprised that it was actually a quasi-treasure refined from the bones and crystal of a Luoling Stage beast, almost causing the Xiao Feng to suffer a great loss. Hearing this, Ye Chen laughed.

Using crystal cores and quasi-treasure refined from bones to smash someone? He really didn't know what the Blood Cliff was thinking. Xiao Feng only ate crystals to survive, and they specialized in black mysteries.

The Xiao Feng immediately swallowed the treasure into its stomach, and then used the contract to teleport back to Ye Chen's side.

"Haha, I wonder where the Blood Cliff is now." Ye Chen held his stomach and laughed. It was also because of the unlucky Blood Cliff, how could he know that the Xiao Feng could disappear into thin air.

"If I were to meet him now, he wouldn't be as lucky as before." The Xiao Feng proudly scattered all over the place.

Ye Chen could only silently mourn for Blood Cliff in his heart. With the Xiao Feng's current strength, Blood Cliff would definitely be at a disadvantage in his hands.

Unknowingly, the sky had already turned white, and the second round of the Refining Competition was about to begin. At this time, Ye Luo, who was lying on the bed, suddenly floated up, and the golden light around him turned into a Fierce Sun Golden Crow.

"Boss, what's this?" The Xiao Feng looked at Ye Luo with astonishment.

"The Golden Crow Fire Lotus has been reborn." The current Ye Luo was no longer of an ordinary physique, but had been modified by a Azure Moon Flame's physique. It could be said that the growth in Ye Luo's body was no longer a strand of Golden Crow Fire Lotus's essence, but true Spiritual Fire of Heaven And Earth's essence.

In the refining competition's plaza, countless cultivators of Tianlan Prefecture had gathered there. Thousands of refiners had participated in the refining competition, and 90% of them had been eliminated in the first round. Only two hundred and ninety people had entered the second round.

After that, the second round of the assessment was still about the degree to which the refining materials were fused. Moreover, it only took the top 12 people to enter, so the elimination rate was even more terrifying than the second round.

Because Lin Chuan had obtained 95 points in the first round, he was directly promoted to the third round, thus he had one less spot. In other words, there were only 11 spots to enter the third round.

Ye Chen brought Xiao Feng and Ye Luo to the plaza, and many people shot fearful gazes at them. In the middle of the gazes, they automatically opened a path for Ye Chen and the others, in their eyes, Ye Chen killed without blinking, a genuine young devil king.

"Chendi, why do they look so scared of you?" Ye Luo walked to Ye Chen's side and muttered. This feeling of being the center of attention made him feel a little awkward.

However, Ye Chen did not mind, as he had seen this scene too many times in his previous life, he glanced at the crowd and pouted: "I think they are all sick."

"Ye Chen, that Demon King who killed people, is here." It was unknown who suddenly shouted, but almost everyone in the plaza turned their heads to look.

"Killing the Infernal King?" Ye Chen frowned, he had already guessed what was going on, but he did not expect that after killing dozens of people, he would get such a title, was everyone afraid of him just like that?

"This is nonsense, why did you suddenly get such a nickname?"

Ye Luo scratched his head and looked at Ye Chen in confusion.

"What else can we do? I just killed the dozens of people who hurt you that day." Ye Chen did not mind, he just wanted to kill a few dozen people, that was all. I was once a master refiner of Heavenly Fire Level, I could not even count the people I killed, they are seeking death, if I kill them, I will just kill them.

"Kill him?" Ye Luo's eyes were wide opened, that person was a member of the eight great clans, you're just going to kill him like that? Didn't the eight great clans come looking for trouble with you? But seeing that Ye Chen's body was unharmed, and did not seem to have any problems,

"Don't get entangled in this matter. It's better to prepare for what happens next." Ye Chen no longer bothered with Ye Luo, and swaggered towards the center of the plaza.
