Rumble, rumble.

Just as Ye Chen was refining the Demon Soul, a dazzling purple radiance suddenly erupted from the depths of the Soul Hall, rushing rapidly toward Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling.

Immediately, the entire valley began to shake violently, as if a terrifying earthquake had occurred.

"My God! What is happening?"

"Could it be that Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling is about to open?" The young cultivators exclaimed in shock, unable to believe their eyes.

Even Ye Lin'Er and Huang Yanran, along with the others, had their eyes fixed intently on Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling, with piercing brilliance shooting from their eyes.

They could clearly sense that the arrays originally set around the cave dwelling were gradually ceasing to operate.

This meant that Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling could open at any moment.

"Impossible, how could that good-for-nothing Ye Chen possibly pass the Soul Hall's test?" The Divine Soul Masters in the valley were frozen in place, looking as if they had seen a ghost.

They had thought Ye Chen was just an ordinary Divine Soul Master, with a Divine Soul Talent far inferior to theirs.

He was bound to be eliminated when he went to take the Soul Hall's test.

But unexpectedly, he somehow caused Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling to open.

This was like something out of a fairy tale.

"Hmph! That useless fool must have accidentally triggered some formations within the Soul Hall, inadvertently opening the cave dwelling. But for us, this is a good thing." Huang Yanran couldn't help but sneer, her expression extremely excited.

She didn't care how that waste Ye Chen had opened the cave dwelling.

She only cared whether she could acquire the inheritance left by Carefree Wanderer.

"Who would have thought, that fool would do us such a big favor before his death. To thank him, I'll personally send him on his way then." Xiahou Lei said with a cold smile, his lips curling with a thick taunting expression.

He had thought there would be no chance of the cave dwelling opening this time.

But unexpectedly, before dying, that fool Ye Chen still delivered such a great gift to everyone.

"This time, I must get my hands on Carefree Wanderer's inheritance, even if it means offending Ye Lin'Er." Beside him, Wang Yang's eyes gleamed with greed.

Although Ye Lin'Er had already been preselected as a disciple by the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, even Wang Yang was deeply wary of her.

However, Carefree Wanderer's inheritance was too tempting for Wang Yang.

If he could obtain the inheritance, there was a great chance he could become a True Disciple of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

Then, he could stand on equal footing with Ye Lin'Er.

"Don't worry, the inheritance of Carefree Wanderer will go to the destined ones. If you truly obtain it, I will not take it from you." Ye Lin'Er seemingly saw through Wang Yang and the others' thoughts and said to them coolly, a supreme arrogance in her demeanor.

Not only had she taken away Ye Chen's Phoenix Race bloodline, but she had also seized the treasures left to him by his parents.

And those treasures were nothing compared to the inheritance left by Carefree Wanderer.

So even if she did not get Carefree Wanderer's inheritance, it would not significantly affect her path of cultivation.

Of course, if she could obtain Carefree Wanderer's inheritance, that would be even better.

After all, no one could have too many treasures.

This time, she would definitely enter Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling with others to explore.

"Thank you, Fairy Lin'Er, for your generosity." Wang Yang, Xiahou Lei, and the others couldn't help being overjoyed.

With a loud crash.

At this moment, a deafening noise suddenly came from the depths of the valley.

It was the sound of the bronze gate outside Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling falling to the ground.

At this moment, all the young cultivators held their breaths, their expressions filled with extreme excitement, eager to rush into Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling immediately.

However, no one dared to act rashly.

If they angered Wang Yang, Xiahou Lei and the others, it would definitely be a dead end for them.

"Fairy Lin'Er, the cave dwelling is open. Why don't we go in and have a look now?" Huang Yanran's eyes sparkled with an unusual brightness as she smiled slightly at Ye Lin'Er.

"Hm! Let's go in! As for that waste Ye Chen, we'll let him live a little longer. Anyway, he can't escape from my grasp." Ye Lin'Er said coldly, then went toward Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling alongside Huang Yanran.

"Guard this place, and as soon as that waste Ye Chen shows up, inform me immediately." Xiahou Lei ordered the students of the Red Flame Dynasty.

He wanted to put Ye Chen to death, but Carefree Wanderer's inheritance was even more important to him.

After all, this was an opportunity to change his destiny, and he absolutely could not miss it.

"Damn it, why hasn't that dog Ye Chen come out of the Soul Hall yet? Now, I can only have someone guard here." Wang Yang said grimly, his face extremely dark.

He thought Ye Chen would soon be sent out by the power of the Soul Hall.

That way, he could kill Ye Chen first, then enter Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling to explore.

But Ye Chen had still not come out of the Soul Hall.

He simply didn't have time to wait any longer.

Otherwise, the inheritance of the Carefree Wanderer could be obtained by someone else at any moment.

"Senior Brother Wang Yang, don't worry, with us here, Ye Chen that waste absolutely can't escape." The students from Cyan Wood Academy declared confidently.

Yes!

Ye Chen's strength was indeed formidable, even capable of killing Tang Lin.

However, the students of Cyan Wood Academy were not to be trifled with either, and if they joined forces, they had nothing to fear from Ye Chen.

"Good!" Wang Yang nodded and then activated the Celestial Spirits within him, speeding towards the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling.

"Fairy Lin'er and the others have already entered the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling; we should go in too."

"Who knows, we might get a share of the spoils." In the valley, when the young cultivators saw Ye Lin'Er and Wang Yang entering the cave dwelling, they stopped hesitating.

Swish, swish, swish.

The next moment, they surged toward the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling like a tide.

They were wary of the strength of Wang Yang and Xiahou Lei, but the allure of treasure was strong.

In pursuit of treasure, they were willing to take the risk.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle.

At this time, within the Soul Refining Array deep in the Soul Hall, Ye Chen was still continuously refining that Demon Soul.

However, his expression turned somewhat grim.

He naturally knew that the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling had already been opened.

But before thoroughly refining that Demon Soul, he had no way of leaving the Soul Hall.

So, he could only be anxious.

"Damn, at my current refining speed, it will probably take five or six days to thoroughly refine this Demon Soul. By then, the Carefree Wanderer's inheritance might already have been taken." Ye Chen expressed his extreme reluctance.

He was the one who opened the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling.

But now, it might become someone else's gain without reason.

How could he be content with this?

"Master, you don't need to worry. Since the Carefree Wanderer set up this Soul Hall, he wouldn't easily let anyone inherit his legacy. Maybe only those who pass the Soul Hall's test can inherit it," the Tower Spirit couldn't help but comfort Ye Chen.

"Hmm! Being anxious is useless now; better to quickly refine this Demon Soul." Ye Chen sighed helplessly.

In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.

"Damn it, why hasn't Ye Chen, that waste, come out from the Soul Hall yet? Could he have already died in there?" A student from Cyan Wood Academy said with a frown outside the Soul Hall.

They had been waiting outside the Soul Hall for a full five days, yet there was still no sign of Ye Chen.

This was truly bizarre.

"It's very possible; otherwise, how could he stay in the Soul Hall for so long?"

"That reckless dog dared to even kill our Third Prince. If he died in there, it would be too merciful a death for him." Other students sneered.

Swish.

Just then, a figure suddenly rushed out from the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling, looking utterly terrified.

It was a golden-armored young man, quite handsome, but now his hair was disheveled, and his eyes were filled with deep fear, as if he had seen a ghost.

"Oh my gosh! Isn't that Jiao Chen, the genius from Black Water Academy? What did he encounter?" In the valley, the young cultivators gasped in shock.

To know Jiao Chen, ranked twenty-third on the Hidden Dragon List, his strength was even more fearsome than Tang Lin.

But now, he looked like this.

What on earth did he encounter in the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling?

"Dead, everyone is dead." Jiao Chen suddenly shouted in terror, as if he had gone mad.

"Jiao Chen, what are you talking about?"

"What happened inside the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling?" the students from Cyan Wood Academy and Red Flame Academy asked anxiously, their faces turning grim.

They found that fewer and fewer cultivators were coming out from the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling in recent days.

Initially, they weren't very concerned.

After all, the interior of the Carefree Wanderer's cave dwelling might hold hidden worlds; it was normal to spend a few days exploring inside.

But after seeing Jiao Chen's appearance, they realized the gravity of the situation.

"Dead, all the students of Cyan Yang Academy are dead. I don't even know how they died; I was the only one to escape." Jiao Chen's voice trembled, as if he had witnessed the most terrifying thing in the world.

"What? How could this be?" Everyone gasped, feeling a chill run up their spines.
