Primordial Star Scripture

Huo Mei'er could never have imagined that Ye Chen would also appear inside the Divine Heritage Cave.

Ye Chen smiled at Huo Mei'er and telepathically said, "I also stumbled upon a 'Treasure Cave Key' by chance and thought I'd come take a look."

After telepathically communicating with Huo Mei'er, Ye Chen, like the seven others who had arrived before him, found a light circle towards the middle among the eighteen and sat down.

As for Huo Mei'er's surprise, Ye Chen didn't see fit to explain much.

After all, the Treasure Cave Key he possessed was obtained after he killed Ao Lei, and naturally, he couldn't disclose this matter.

Huo Mei'er looked at Ye Chen as he sat down in a meditative posture, her beautiful eyes occasionally glancing over at him. It seemed as if she had something to say, but after looking at Jin Lieyang, she fell silent again. Find adventures on empire

In the end, after holding back a few times, Huo Mei'er couldn't help but telepathically communicate with Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, this time the treasure hunt in the Divine Heritage Cave is unlike any before, marking the most unique one in thousands of years. Intense disputes are very likely to occur, and the danger is much greater, so if you're not completely confident, don't venture too deeply."

Ye Chen was quite surprised by Huo Mei'er's words.

The most unique one in thousands of years? Different from the usual treasure hunts?

Ye Chen looked at Huo Mei'er, only to see the young girl practicing with her eyes closed and paying no further heed to him, as if she had never sent any telepathic messages.

When Ye Chen telepathically communicated with her again, Huo Mei'er just smiled and was no longer willing to elaborate.

Ye Chen pondered the meaning behind Huo Mei'er's words when another divine telepathic message entered his mind: "Young lad, I didn't expect you to have a Treasure Cave Key and make it to the Divine Heritage Cave!"

This voice belonged to the Three-Eyed Skeleton-possessed mid-stage Heavenly Saint young man, who was telepathically speaking to Ye Chen.

"Young lad, let me remind you that this time the Divine Heritage Cave is different from the past. Don't be careless, for even a moment's inattention, and even if you have a True God Talisman, you may still fall!"

The words from the Three-Eyed Skeleton that followed gave Ye Chen a chill in his heart.

One warning from Huo Mei'er about the unusual nature and high danger of this Divine Heritage Cave had already made him take heed. Now, the Three-Eyed Skeleton also started to warn him about the dangers of this Divine Heritage Cave.

This, of course, made Ye Chen take the situation very seriously, aware that there must be something particularly different about this Divine Heritage Cave!

Ye Chen even hesitated for a moment - was it really wise to persevere and venture into the Divine Heritage Cave?

After all, judging by the demeanor of both Huo Mei'er and the Three-Eyed Skeleton, they seemed to understand a lot more about this place than he did, while he knew very little in comparison.

Of course, after a fleeting hesitation, Ye Chen did not leave.

Having arrived at the Divine Heritage Cave, he wouldn't back out, discouraged by just a couple of warnings, without even making an attempt.

Naturally, he became even more vigilant and cautious in his heart.

When Ye Chen similarly asked the Three-Eyed Skeleton for elaboration, the Three-Eyed Skeleton just smiled and replied telepathically, "If you survive the third segment of the Path of Life and Death, we can talk about it then. For now, it's still too early to discuss those matters."

After sending the message, the Three-Eyed Skeleton also fell silent.

Regarding Huo Mei'er's advice, Ye Chen had felt since their betting duel that the girl had been kind to him, so he wasn't surprised by her warning.

But the Three-Eyed Skeleton's reminder was something he completely didn't expect.

"It seems very likely that this Three-Eyed Skeleton has a significant connection with the Beiming Clan."

"Because of the relationship with the Beiming Clan, he shows a bit of kindness toward me."

"Otherwise, he wouldn't have stopped in the end within the Forbidden Ancient Land, and now he even went out of his way to warn me."

Certainly, even as Ye Chen felt the Three-Eyed Skeleton's goodwill, he remained extremely cautious around this inscrutable being.

After sitting down, Ye Chen, while keeping an eye on both the Three-Eyed Skeleton and Huo Mei'er, also looked at the others present.

These were the people who would be hunting for treasures with him in the Divine Heritage Cave, and of course, he needed to be observant of them.

Of the seven people who arrived before Ye Chen, he had already met Huo Mei'er, the Three-Eyed Skeleton, and Jin Lieyang. Among the remaining four, aside from the late-stage Heavenly Saint elderly man with white eyebrows whom Ye Chen heard speaking upon his entry into the Divine Transmission Hall, there were two others at the late-stage of Heavenly Saint Realm. One was corpulent while the other was extremely skinny; such a stark contrast made one wonder if these two were acquainted.

The only one not at the late stage of Heavenly Saint Realm was a young man in white. This young man, at the early stage of Heavenly Saint Realm, wore a headband on his forehead and held a folding fan in his hand, appearing much like a playboy.

Through the conversation between this young man in white and the white-browed elder, Ye Chen learned of his identity.

This young man in white was none other than the young master of the Nine-Star Palace, the leading power of the Jiumang Continent from the Thirty-Three Continents, named Ding Xiaojia.

Even though Ding Xiaojia was the young master of the Nine-Star Palace and seemed quite young, from his conversation with the white-browed elder, he mentioned having entered the Divine Heritage Cave once six hundred years ago, and Ye Chen understood that this young man must be over six hundred years old!

The higher the martial artist's realm, the longer their lifespan. Even at six hundred years of age, for someone in the Heavenly Saint Realm, it was indeed akin to their youth.

While Ye Chen was sizing up the seven people in the area, no new arrivals came for a long while.

It wasn't until half a day passed that a mid-stage Heavenly Saint Realm youth flew in; after that, no one else entered the Divine Transmission Hall.

In the end, there were only nine people who came to the Divine Transmission Hall for this exploration!

Ye Chen thought it over and soon understood why no one else was arriving.

Those possession of the Treasure Cave Key, like Huo Mei'er and others, must have been waiting near the Divine Heritage Cave, ready to enter as soon as it opened, and must have come here earlier.

As for Ye Chen, he hadn't decided to come to the Divine Heritage Cave from the start and only set off after the Treasure Cave Key showed activity, naturally falling a bit behind.

This last Heavenly Saint Realm youth who arrived was even later than Ye Chen, presumably because he was farther away from the Divine Heritage Cave.

According to the stone tablet outside the Divine Heritage Cave, once the Transmission Light Formation appeared in the Divine Transmission Hall, the treasure hunt in the Divine Heritage Cave could truly begin, and one would officially enter the first leg of the three deadly trials of the cave.

Three hours passed after the final youth arrived. Finally, in a corner of the Divine Transmission Hall, a transmission light formation about three fathoms in circumference appeared.

The moment the transmission light formation appeared, all nine people seated in meditation stood up!

"This transmission light formation isn't like the ancient teleportation formations that span continents and require a Teleportation Token to transport. As long as we stand inside this formation, we can be directly teleported to the first leg of the deadly trials."

"Haha, since the transmission light formation has appeared, it means that the fifteen-day adventure for the treasure of the Divine Heritage Cave officially begins, so this old man will take the first step!"

"The areas where the transmission light formation sends us within the deadly trial zone will be different for each person. Whether we will see each other again depends on our fate!"

"Everyone, until we meet again!"

The white-browed elder, who had been curiously smiling at Ye Chen ever since his arrival, was the first to hold the Treasure Cave Key and step into the transmission light formation.

Whoosh!

While the Treasure Cave Key glimmered, the transmission light formation also flickered with light. Then, the white-browed elder vanished.

"'Heavenly Saint Xuanyou' is still so impatient. He's already taken the first step, I should set off as well," Jin Lieyang said, laughing as he stood up after the white-browed elder was transported away.

He smiled at Huo Mei'er, "Mei'er, be cautious on these three deadly trial legs. Since we will be transported to different locations, the chance of meeting is very slim, so I won't be able to look after you."

Huo Mei'er smiled sweetly back at Jin Lieyang, "Jin, rest assured, your little sister will be very careful even if just for one or two treasures."

Seeing this, Jin Lieyang laughed and then also stepped into the transmission light formation, disappearing from sight.

What no one could sense, at the moment Jin Lieyang was transported, not only did the Treasure Cave Key on his person flicker, but two rays of light from the Treasure Cave Key also flickered inside a golden storage ring in his hand!

After Jin Lieyang disappeared, Ye Chen subconsciously looked towards Huo Mei'er and the Three-Eyed Skeleton, only to find a somewhat inexplicable meaning in both of their eyes.

As if sensing Ye Chen's attention, Huo Mei'er smiled at him, "Ye Chen, I'm going ahead of you."

After saying this, she too stepped into the transmission light formation and vanished from the Divine Transmission Hall.

As Huo Mei'er was transported away, similar to the unnoticed twin flickers of light on Jin Lieyang, apart from the glimmer of the Treasure Cave Key in her hand, there was also a flash of light from the Treasure Cave Key within the space of her slender, snow-white belt around her waist!

After three individuals were transported away, the others also crowded around the transmission light formation.

The fourth person to hurry onto the transmission light formation was the Heavenly Saint Realm youth who arrived later than Ye Chen.

Ye Chen saw this Heavenly Saint Realm youth holding the Treasure Cave Key, standing on the platform with a mix of anticipation and nervousness, waiting to be teleported.

But then, something astonishing happened!

As the Heavenly Saint Realm youth's Treasure Cave Key glowed, the entire transmission light formation suddenly blazed with a bloody radiance, ejecting the youth from the formation and shooting him back into the void of the Divine Transmission Hall. In an instant, the bloody light flashed and instantly killed the Heavenly Saint Realm youth!

Ye Chen only saw the anticipation on the young man's face turn into fear, surprise, and utter shock in an instant, and then he saw the youth perish, leaving not even ashes behind!

This scene shocked Nine-Star Palace's young master Ding Xiaojia to the core!

Ye Chen was equally astonished at this moment.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Ye Chen had not expected that even before officially entering the three deadly trials of the Divine Heritage Cave, someone would already be dead!

The two late-stage Heavenly Saint Realm existences, both going pale in an instant, seemed to recall something and started to ponder deeply.

Only the mid-stage Heavenly Saint Realm youth, who had been the Three-Eyed Skeleton all along, showed no change in expression from beginning to end.
