Ye Chen's words directly enraged the Celestial Eye Emperor's spirit avatar, nearly making it explode with fury, its terrifying aura deep as an abyss and as oppressive as a prison.
However.
Ye Chen remained utterly unafraid.
There were Daoist Oaths to restrain it.
Either he agreed to a fight, or it was part of a predetermined hunt or a divine blessing; otherwise, it was quite safe.
Like the underlings of the Three Emperors of the Alien Race, who often called He Taiyuan 'an old fogey', 'blind old dog'...
Now, cursing the Celestial Eye Emperor himself, why not?
The humans trapped here were deeply affected by the environment, and most were very pessimistic... of course, some factors of fear played a role too.
Ye Chen was pondering whether he should find a way someday to get Fatty in here.
With Fatty around, changing the atmosphere wouldn't be bad.
The wrinkles on He Taiyuan's face seemed to relax a bit, and he looked at the Celestial Eye Emperor's spirit avatar and said, "I still need to get over four hundred people from my side, I'll arrange for someone to bring them later."
After speaking, He Taiyuan turned around, looked at the crowd behind him and said, "Let's go!"
...
When He Taiyuan returned with a large group of people to the living area of the humans in Outer Heaven.
The scene immediately became lively!
Originally, there were only over three thousand people here.
Now, over thirteen hundred people were added all at once, and over four hundred more would arrive later.
And Ye Chen, renowned as the Asura, had now achieved considerable fame.
In the three altars of the alien race, Asura single-handedly slaughtered twenty-seven elite aliens.
Then he killed a prince of the Celestial Eye Race!
These messages were shocking.
But after the excitement subsided, pessimism spread quickly.
The warriors who had just been rescued... were all seriously injured.
Without enough resources, more than two-thirds of them may not survive.
Even the remaining one-third, though their lives might be saved, would mostly be left with many physical ailments!
Previously, there weren't many cultivation resources, but life could still manage.
Now, without resources, they can only watch as these recently rescued fellow humans... die one after another in pain.
Regarding this.
He Taiyuan did not disclose information about resources for the time being, but gathered a group of strong humans to discuss solutions.
Meanwhile, Ye Chen was placed by He Taiyuan in an independent residence, surrounded by a large number of guards.
The stone-built house was full of array prohibitions, isolating external probing.
Ye Chen sat cross-legged inside the house.
After swallowing some Healing Elixirs and activating some primordial body energy, the cracks on his body's surface slowly disappeared.
"I need to get some primordial energy from the Primordial Celestial Origin Pool as soon as possible, or it would be a loss if I empty my own primordial energy." Ye Chen murmured softly, then sent a transmission into the Sword Tomb.
Ever since he arrived in Outer Heaven, the Sword Tomb had been completely sealed.
Because the rules of this Outer Heaven were quite peculiar, Ye Chen was worried it might affect the stability of the Sword Tomb.
In the living area of the humans in this Outer Heaven, the environment was the harshest, but it was also the most incomplete area in terms of rules, so the risks were much lower.
After Ye Chen conveyed the details of this incident to Luo Qingyi and Master Legs, it took a long time before he received a stuttered transmission from Master Legs.
"Brat... you're fortunate no matter where you go... if Heavenly Dao were female, I'd definitely suspect you have something going with Heavenly Dao!"
"Master Legs, so you're saying Heavenly Dao is male?"
Master Legs: "...Heavenly Dao is genderless!"
Ye Chen: "Oh, a blend of yin and yang."
Inside the Sword Tomb, Master Legs felt exhausted.
Sometimes, conversing with Ye Chen indeed could be frustrating.
Luo Qingyi then spoke up, "Hurry and leave this Outer Heaven, return to the Human Race World, enter the Sword Tomb, break through the fourth layer of the Sword Tomb, and get the fifth layer of cultivation technique of the Nine Heavens Sword Manual!"
Ye Chen, this freakish kid, might reach the Peak of Transcendent Realm any day... better to get the cultivation techniques sooner, otherwise needing a breakthrough without having the techniques...
"Wait... I still have something big to do." Ye Chen said.
"What is it? Don't tell me you want to go and chop down the Three Emperors of the Alien Race?" Master Legs murmured.
"Master Legs, do you have a way?"
Master Legs: "...no, I don't!"
Ye Chen felt a slight wave of disappointment, and then said, "I've discussed with Elder He about pulling out some traitors, so we can quietly develop strength."
Although most humans here have united into a single force, fighting against the alien race.
But there are bad apples!
Next, Elder He will distribute the resources Ye Chen brought in, aiming to rapidly strengthen in a short time. In order not to be detected by the alien race, traitors must be dealt with.
Doing so is also a form of protection for Ye Chen's safety.
Else, once news of humans suddenly acquiring a large amount of resources reaches the ears of the Three Emperors of the Alien Race, they'll certainly guess the reason.
By then, the alien race will not only target his Asura identity in Outer Heaven, they'll also probe his real identity in the Human Race World, bringing a slew of troubles one after another!
Thus, the plan Ye Chen and Elder He set was to leak some information and lure out the traitors.
Ye Chen was the bait for this plan.
After briefly chatting with Luo Qingyi and Master Legs, Ye Chen directly sealed the Sword Tomb and then calmed his mind to contemplate the details of the newly created astonishing instant-empty sword technique.
This instant-empty sword technique had quite a few imperfections.
For example, the afterimage risked being destroyed.
The pressure while traversing the space gap was too strong, slowing down traversing speed.
Previously, it was all just conceptualization and deduction, many problems hadn't been considered.
Now, after using it once, a heap of issues surfaced.
"The afterimage easily dissipates, and its trace is too obvious, best to use my Sword Origin for positioning, as my Sword Origin is quite stable; in the midst of battle, I can slash a bunch of Sword Qi...
Furthermore, when traversing the space gap, one cannot charge blindly, skills are needed, completing the Vertical Earth Golden Light speed should solve this issue, must ponder deeply!
Also, rushing out and slashing directly is too simplistic, must integrate my other sword skills. But, the essence of this technique is that upon bursting out of the space gap, I must strike, catching the enemy off guard...
In this way, slashing directly would be fastest, unless I manage to prepare other sword techniques while traversing the space gap, which would increase the difficulty of traversing..."
Not thinking was fine, but the more he thought, the more problems emerged.
However, Ye Chen was not discouraged by these issues; instead, he was very excited.
Identifying problems is a good thing, they can be improved step by step.
The most fearful scenario is being unable to locate problems, letting the enemy identify them during battle; that would be truly troublesome!
Meanwhile, within the sealed Sword Tomb.
Master Legs and Luo Qingyi were still immersed in the shock brought by Ye Chen.
Just this day of not keeping an eye on Ye Chen... this kid's prowess experienced another comprehensive explosion.
After a long time, Master Legs sighed, "Have you ever seen someone just entering the Mortal Transformation Realm create Celestial Tier martial arts?"
Luo Qingyi coolly replied, "I have."
Master Legs, doubtful: "Stop boasting, name them!"
"Ye Chen."
Master Legs: "...I have too, Ye Chen!"
Although they both realized Ye Chen's instant-empty sword technique still had many issues, this sword technique already laid the foundation for Celestial Tier martial arts... once perfected, it would definitely belong to Celestial Tier.
As for whether it could be perfected?
No doubt about it... there's nothing Ye Chen, this freak, cannot accomplish!
Outside the Sword Tomb, inside the stone house where Ye Chen was.
In the corner of the stone house, a shadow slowly emerged...
