Chapter 1464: Chapter 1464 - 1449: A Lucky Find

Almost immediately after hearing the words "Shopkeeper Yany is plotting against the new little world behind you," Ye Zhen’s figure shot like lightning toward the eight martial artists of the Divine Communication Realm who were holding Big Ears thirty miles ahead.

Big Ears’ ears trembled rapidly for a moment, and he immediately realized with joy that Ye Zhen had come to rescue him.

He had already automatically ignored his previous slip of the tongue. Surviving was more important than anything else, wasn’t it?

"Hmm?"

The guard of the Divine Communication Realm leading the group from the Sky-reaching was startled and quickly turned his head to look in the direction behind him. The movement caused by Ye Zhen’s rapid approach had already alerted them, and they were instantly on guard.

The distance of thirty miles was covered by Ye Zhen in a flash, and in an instant, he blocked the path of these people. "Stop!"

Ye Zhen’s stern command made the eight Divine Communication Realm martial artists look at each other in dismay. They were seasoned individuals, having never seen a martial artist of the First Stage of the Divine Communication Realm so calmly tell eight mid-late stage Divine Communication Realm martial artists to halt.

"Who are you? We’re from the Sky-reaching. If you know what’s good for you, move aside!" Perhaps the extraordinary aura emanating from Ye Zhen made the leading martial artist wary, so he didn’t act immediately but shouted sternly.

At this moment, the extremely delighted Big Ears was once again dumbfounded. Earlier, he was solely focused on being rescued, regardless of who the rescuer was. As long as it was a lifeline, he dared to cling to it.

But now, he suddenly realized that the lifeline he had grabbed seemed... insufficient.

The martial artists who caught him were eight mid-late stage Divine Communication Realm existences, while Young Master Di, who he regarded highly, only had the cultivation of the First Stage of the Divine Communication Realm. Let alone the fact that these eight martial artists from Sky-reaching could easily crush Ye Zhen!

"How many of you are there? Is Yany Chi here?" Ye Zhen coldly asked the Divine Communication Realm martial artist, while at the same moment, his divine sense spread in all directions.

Since Big Ears said Yany Chi had already started plotting against the new little world behind him, regardless of how this information came to be, Ye Zhen had to deal with Yany Chi immediately.

If Yany Chi was nearby, and if Ye Zhen suddenly displayed amazing combat power, it might alarm Yany Chi, causing him to escape and leading to a difficult situation.

"Who are you? Do you know Shopkeeper Yany?"

The Divine Communication Realm martial artist still wanted to probe Ye Zhen’s background. In the void, a faint wave of divine soul had already quickly spread in all directions. With Ye Zhen’s strong four-colored innate soul light support, within a radius of thirty miles, Ye Zhen instantly grasped the situation clearly.

Within a radius of thirty miles, there was no Yany Chi!

Since Yany Chi wasn’t within a thirty-mile radius, that meant Ye Zhen could make his move.

In the next second, a severe expression appeared on Ye Zhen’s face, and a powerful aura suddenly rose from him. The Acquired Spirit Treasure Thunder Spirit Whip shot out from behind Ye Zhen’s head, and in that instant, the dark red Evil Punishing Divine Thunder crashed toward the leading Divine Communication Realm martial artist.

Rumble!

The thunder light flashed, and the Divine Communication Realm martial artist at the front, who had been speaking with Ye Zhen, vanished into thin air!

No, it should be said that he was instantly struck into black ashes by that Evil Punishing Divine Thunder!

When the black ashes slowly fell from the sky, the remaining seven Divine Communication Realm martial artists finally reacted, and with a horrified shout, they fled in all directions.

With one strike, he had turned a Divine Communication Realm martial artist, whose cultivation was nearly the same as theirs, into ashes. Such an existence was definitely not someone they could contend with!

Rumble!

When the thunder light flashed again, two figures darted out from Ye Zhen’s embrace. Ye Zhen’s cold, emotionless voice suddenly echoed, "Go, none of them can escape!"

The thunder light flashed wildly, and with each thunder strike, a person’s physical body and divine soul were completely obliterated, turning into void. Although Little Cat’s method was violent, compared to Ye Zhen, it was much more gentle.

Like a white lightning bolt, Little Cat fiercely charged in, and the nerve-wrenching sound of bones shattering like fragments suddenly echoed.

With each strike, Little Cat turned a Divine Communication Realm martial artist into minced meat.

In the past two to three years, Little Cat had consumed nearly a hundred thousand Spirit Void Fruits, silently causing changes in its bloodline. The black markings on its body became more apparent, its speed increased, and the sound of wind during its swift movements grew quieter.

Compared to Little Cat, the Nine-Headed Beast was much more brutal. The colorful lights emitted from its nine heads blasted forth; even late-stage Divine Communication Realm experts were reduced to mere children’s toys in front of the Nine-Headed Beast.

One head grabbed onto a person’s body, while the other heads pounced simultaneously, instantly carving up the rest cleanly.

When Ye Zhen struck a Divine Communication Realm martial artist holding Big Ears with a Soul Refining Divine Light, a white shadow in the void flashed by, and Little Cat had already killed the farthest fleeing Divine Communication Realm martial artist.

From Ye Zhen’s embrace, the War Soul Blood Flag flew out, swiftly engulfing and devouring only six innate divine souls before burrowing back into Ye Zhen’s embrace.

The Nine-Headed Beast, having just consumed two mid-late stage Divine Communication Realm martial artists, experienced another surge in its aura, skyrocketing from mid-stage Sixth Stage of Dao Entrance Realm to mid-stage Seventh Stage of Dao Entrance Realm.

This left Ye Zhen in speechless astonishment.

Is this the terror of the Ancient Relic?

While on the True Profound Continent, the Nine-Headed Beast was limited by the missing Heavenly Dao of the True Profound Continent, and its cultivation was stuck there. Even after being subdued by Ye Zhen, and with Ye Zhen occasionally simulating the Heavenly Dao, before returning to the Desolate Land Continent, it could only advance its cultivation from the Third Stage of Dao Entrance Realm to the Fifth Stage.

However, upon reaching the Primordial Continent for just over a month, the cultivation of the Nine-Headed Beast skyrocketed from the Fifth Stage of Dao Entrance Realm to the Mid Stage of the Sixth Stage of Dao Entrance Realm. After devouring two martial artists of the Divine Communication Realm, its cultivation surged once more.

Ye Zhen had never realized before that this creature could even increase its cultivation by eating people.

This left Ye Zhen feeling somewhat uncomfortable inside.

This time, if it weren’t for the urgency of the situation, he wouldn’t have let anyone go here. Otherwise, Ye Zhen wouldn’t have let both Achou and the Nine-Headed Beast go.

Without needing Ye Zhen’s instructions, the little cat, who had been with Ye Zhen in killing and looting for so long, had already scampered off to collect those martial artists’ storage rings, along with spiritual artifacts and soul artifacts.

These eight people, perhaps frightened by Ye Zhen’s means, many hadn’t fully activated their soul artifacts. Under the soul artifacts’ instinct to protect their masters, they couldn’t exert much power.

In less than two breaths, Ye Zhen effortlessly slaughtered the eight middle-late stage martial artists of the Divine Communication Realm around him, a scene that directly left Big Ears dumbfounded, unable to react for a while.

These eight martial artists of the middle-late stage of the Divine Communication Realm, the highest cultivation reached the late stage of the Eighth Stage of the Divine Communication Realm, even an early-stage Dark Palace Realm existence might not have this capability, right?

Yet the young master Di in front, with only a First Stage of Divine Communication Realm cultivation, easily accomplished it, and looked as if he still had more capability to spare.

For the first time, Big Ears felt that his usually useful brain seemed somewhat inadequate.

Casually grabbing Big Ears, collecting the Nine-Headed Beast and the little cat into his arms, Ye Zhen dived into the North Sea, the breath of the Black Dragon Legacy slightly dispersed, instantly causing ten thousand demons to evade, with no Water Clan daring to approach Ye Zhen.

Almost out of habit, Ye Zhen pressed his palm on Big Ears’ forehead; if he said anything wrong, Ye Zhen intended to soul search Big Ears.

Ye Zhen’s tension wasn’t unwarranted; this whole new little world matter was exceedingly critical.

A single leak could bring unknown numbers of powerful beings to hunt Ye Zhen across the world.

Ye Zhen estimated that by then, a heap of Dao Realm existences would be chasing him down.

"Speak, how did you know that Manager Yany wanted to harm me? And how did you learn that Manager Yany was scheming for the little world behind me?"

Ye Zhen knew that asking like this might confirm to this kid that there indeed was a little world behind him, but he couldn’t refrain from asking. Moreover, the more he described, the more troubling it became, thus he could only proceed like this.

Intimidated by Ye Zhen’s previous might, Big Ears dared not hesitate and immediately confessed everything he knew and how he eavesdropped on the matter, like spilling beans from a bamboo tube to Ye Zhen.

Upon hearing, Ye Zhen was stunned.

The controversies regarding Yany Chi were all eavesdropped by Big Ears, naturally leading to no constructive progress.

Ye Zhen was shocked, yet by this kid Big Ears’ innate divine ability.

"You say you can disregard things like spiritual power knots and silent barriers to hear others talk? As long as it’s within the range of your innate divine ability, you can hear all sounds?" Ye Zhen exclaimed in amazement.

Upon hearing this, Big Ears nodded heavily, "That’s right, as long as it’s something with sound, within my capability range, I can hear it, regardless of how many layers of spiritual power or silent barriers were applied. I can even slightly influence the sound changes within my ability range!"

"Just like when you called me for help?" Ye Zhen asked.

"Exactly!"

Now, Ye Zhen finally understood everything.

No wonder this kid could lead him over as soon as Hua Changjun’s fleet arrived; he had eavesdropped on their procurement list’s content. No wonder he warned in advance earlier, he had overheard Yany Chi and others’ plot.

"What’s your ability range, then?" Ye Zhen asked.

"Reporting to the Young Master, the range of my innate divine ability, without considering consumption, can reach ten thousand miles. Beyond ten thousand miles, it becomes unclear!" Big Ears answered.

"Ten thousand miles....

Now, Ye Zhen was utterly unsettled; this ability was astoundingly against the heavens!

Almost simultaneously, the voice of the Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou echoed in Ye Zhen’s Spirit Palace, "Lord Ye, you might have stumbled upon a treasure!"
