In the spacious valley, the attention of the cultivators was all drawn to Ye Chen at this moment.

After a brief moment of astonishment, the corners of many cultivators' mouths twisted into sardonic smiles, looking at Ye Chen as if he were prey waiting to be slaughtered.

Some even unabashedly released the killing intent from within their bodies.

These people all wanted to take Ye Chen's head to cozy up to Ye Lin'Er.

"Hmph! This useless fool, truly unaware of his own fate, this time, not even his ancestors can save him," Lin Man shook her head with eyes full of sympathetic pity, looking at Ye Chen as if he were an ant overestimating its abilities.

Ye Chen knew well that the Cave Mansion of the Carefree Wanderer would certainly attract countless cultivators.

Yet he chose to enter this valley regardless.

This kind of person, who doesn't even have a shred of self-awareness, wouldn't deserve any sympathy even if killed.

Swish.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Ye Chen's expression remained as calm as a still lake; he didn't even glance at the crowd as he flew toward the ancient palace up ahead.

"Useless fool, do you think you're qualified to come here? Get out of my sight!" Just then, a burly young man suddenly yelled at Ye Chen, his mouth twisted into a sinister grin.

Rumble.

The next moment, a fury of extreme Celestial Spirits surged from the young man's body, condensing into three terrifying Celestial Spirit Vortices that rolled toward Ye Chen.

"Courting death." A cold gleam immediately shot from Ye Chen's eyes.

He hadn't even met this young man before.

Yet as soon as the other party appeared, he launched an attack, thinking he was a pushover to squash at will!

Swoosh.

At that moment, Ye Chen's body suddenly vanished from the spot, instantly dodging the attack of the three Celestial Spirit Vortices.

Next, he appeared right in front of the young man, delivering a fierce punch toward his chest.

"Not good." The young man's pupils suddenly contracted, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

In the information he had, Ye Chen was merely a useless figure incapable of awakening his bloodline, and his cultivation was only at the Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm.

Even if his physical body possessed the power of five thousand tigers, he should by no means be his match.

So he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to crush Ye Chen and take his head to curry favor with Ye Lin'Er.

But now, he realized he was dead wrong, and extremely so.

Ye Chen's strength was far greater than he had imagined, entirely beyond his ability to contend with.

Unfortunately, it was too late for him to regret.

With a loud bang, Ye Chen's fist blasted open the young man's chest, sending his body flying like a meteor into the mountain wall dozens of feet away, falling completely silent, uncertain if alive or dead.

"I warn you all, don't provoke me, or your end will be even more tragic than his," Ye Chen's gaze was ice-cold as he swept over the crowd, his tone overwhelmingly domineering.

"This useless fool is really arrogant."

"Who would've thought his strength slightly exceeds the intelligence reports, but does he think this grants him free rein within the Immortal Secret Realm? How naive."

"Hmph! Any powerhouse on the Hidden Dragon List could easily crush him like an insect; what's he got to be so smug about?" Many young cultivators sneered.

In their eyes, Ye Chen's strength indeed had some merit; otherwise, he couldn't have punched a Third Layer Celestial Spirit Realm genius flying with a single blow.

But compared to the powerhouses on the Hidden Dragon List, he was nothing more than a joke.

This kind of person dared offend Xiahou Lei and Fairy Lin'Er, it's practically seeking his own demise.

"Useless fool, don't be so cocky, let me, Lu Cheng, take your miserable life," just then, a young man stepped forward from the crowd, gripping a crimson spear, coldly speaking to Ye Chen.

"Lu Cheng, ranked seventy-sixth on the Hidden Dragon List."

"Haha, this time I want to see if that useless Ye Chen can still be arrogant. With Lu Cheng's strength, killing him is no different from killing a dog." The young cultivators watching couldn't help but show schadenfreude-laden smiles, looking at Ye Chen as if he were a dead man.

"It's over; this useless fool is really finished this time. Although Lu Cheng's strength is far from rivalling our senior sister, crushing this fool is as easy as flipping a hand," a cultivator from the Celestial Pearl Dynasty shook his head.

"He's to blame for overestimating himself, clearly having no skills yet still running here to seek death," Lin Man said indifferently, without a trace of sympathy for Ye Chen.

"Another one seeking death." Ye Chen's brows furrowed slightly, as a terrifying killing intent surged from within him.

He clearly warned everyone, not to provoke him again.

Yet, the guy before him just wouldn't listen.

Since that's the case, don't blame him for being ruthless.

"Courting death? You think a worthless scum like you can kill me. Who gave you the confidence? You should take a leak and look at yourself." Lu Cheng couldn't help but sneer, his eyes filled with deep ridicule, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"This worthless fool is about to die, yet he still dares to speak stubbornly, truly like a dog that can't stop eating sh*t."

"Quickly make him disappear from this world, so he won't continue to disgust people." Many young cultivators sneered one after another, looking at Ye Chen as if they were looking at a buffoon.

"Trash, give me your life. If you must blame, blame yourself for offending someone you shouldn't have. Whether it's Fairy Lin'Er or Brother Xiahou, they're not someone you lowlifes can afford to provoke. Repent in hell." In the next instant, terrifying ferocity erupted from Lu Cheng's eyes, his expression turning extremely fierce.

Swish.

He then swung the long spear in his hand, rushing towards Ye Chen.

Boom, a loud sound rang.

Just then, an unexpected event occurred.

The ancient palace standing before Ye Chen suddenly erupted in dazzling radiance, enveloping Ye Chen entirely.

Then, Ye Chen's body was pulled into the palace by that radiance.

"What? Could this worthless fool really be a Divine Soul Master? Otherwise, how could he be drawn into the Soul Hall's power." The surrounding young cultivators shuddered suddenly, their expressions filled with shock.

As they knew, only Divine Soul Masters were qualified to enter the Soul Hall ahead, and other cultivators could hardly approach it, including the strong figures on the Hidden Dragon List.

Yet Ye Chen was directly drawn into the Soul Hall's power.

This proves he is a Divine Soul Master too.

"Humph! You're truly lucky, trash. If not for the Soul Hall's power saving your life, you'd already be dead." Lu Cheng's expression immediately turned gloomy, his tone filled with mockery.

He originally believed that with his strength, he could easily crush Ye Chen to death and use his head to flatter Ye Lin'Er and Xiahou Lei.

But unexpectedly, Ye Chen was drawn into the Soul Hall's power.

And although he was a Hidden Dragon List powerhouse, he wasn't a Divine Soul Master and couldn't enter the Soul Hall to kill Ye Chen.

Indeed, that trash's luck is incredible.

"Senior Sister, it's unexpected that this worthless fool doesn't have much skill, but his life is quite tough. However, the Soul Hall can only protect him temporarily, not forever. When he comes out, the only path left is death." A Celestial Pearl Dynasty cultivator shook his head and said.

"I heard this Soul Hall has incredibly high requirements for Divine Soul Masters. Until now, no one has passed its test, and those who fail are sent out of the Soul Hall, so this trash doesn't have much time to live." Lin Man swept a cold black gaze at Ye Chen, eyes filled with deep pity.

She, too, didn't expect Ye Chen's luck to be so good, saved by the Soul Hall's power at a critical moment.

Otherwise, with his pathetic strength, he couldn't withstand even one blow from Lu Cheng.

But Ye Chen escaped for a moment, not for a lifetime.

Since he entered this valley, he was destined to be a dead man.

"Fairy Lin'Er, it's Fairy Lin'Er. She's finally here."

"The person beside her, could it be Su Yanran, ranked second on the Hidden Dragon List?" Just then, the valley's cultivators exclaimed, their gaze fixed on the figures in the sky.

Even Lin Man's expression turned extremely serious, her eyes filled with deep dread.

The figures appearing before everyone were none other than Ye Lin'Er and Chu Feng.

And beside Ye Lin'Er, there was a graceful woman in a yellow dress with unparalleled beauty, like a fairy descending from the heavens.

This woman, named Su Yanran, was ranked second on the Hidden Dragon List.

Even Wang Long's older brother, Wang Yang, was overshadowed by her.

So, any cultivator exploring the Immortal Secret Realm knew of her existence.

"Ye Lin'Er, I finally found you, you bitch." Inside the Soul Hall, Ye Chen's eyes shot cold light, staring at Ye Lin'Er, even his facial features slightly twisted.

Snap, snap.

Thinking of what Ye Lin'Er did to him, Ye Chen couldn't help but clench his fist, producing a harsh snapping sound.

Previously, due to his weak strength, he couldn't seek revenge against Ye Lin'Er even if he wanted to.

Now, his strength has transformed drastically, and it's time for Ye Lin'Er to pay with blood.
