Chapter 1689 - 1486: Tribulation of Destruction

Beside him, two middle-aged men stood.

One was Wang Chenggui, the other Liu Muchan. Both were vice deans of Chaos Academy, standing respectfully by this young man’s side.

This scene would be quite shocking to those who saw it.

"The Spiritual Vein Array? Suddenly finding a reason to let Ye Li enter the Spiritual Vein Array, this must be to prevent me from pursuing Ye Li?" The young man smiled, seeing through it all at once.

Wang Chenggui and Liu Muchan were silent.

A bit nervous.

"Speak." The young man put down the teacup, speaking indifferently.

"It... should be. According to what I know, Ye Tian has a good relationship with the four Supreme Elders and has some special connection with them." Wang Chenggui started sweating, gritting his teeth, he said, "Ye Li doesn’t know what’s good for her. With you being so outstanding, like an Immortal from the heavens, and yet she..."

"In the academy, almost everyone criticizes Ye Li as brainless, saying she’s blind, and even in the face of Young Master Lian’s pursuit, she remains indifferent. Her brain must be faulty." Liu Muchan said helplessly, this was a sincere statement, not flattery.

Although Chi Xiao hadn’t revealed his background, it was almost certain he was from at least a Second-Level Civilization, maybe even a Third-Level Civilization.

At just over 3 million years old, he was already at the Sixth Level of the Immortal King Realm.

At this level, he was practically an Immortal.

Pursuing you, Ye Li, and yet you are unwilling???? It’s really... indescribable...

"Heh..." Chi Xiao chuckled, "That’s what makes it interesting, doesn’t it?"

In the entire Chaos Academy, the only one who caught his eye was Ye Li.

Her appearance was top-notch, temperament top-notch, and martial arts talent also top-notch.

Very interesting.

Unfortunately, she showed no appreciation for it.

He had pursued earnestly for half a month, receiving no response, and instead felt some aversion...

"Since arriving here, I’ve often heard the name Ye Tian. Is he very powerful?" Chi Xiao asked.

"Very powerful." Wang Chenggui hesitated for a moment, then heavily nodded, "Of course, compared to you, Young Master, he is nothing."

"Alright, you both can leave now." Chi Xiao waved his hand.

"Young Master, shouldn’t we be doing something? Just watch as Ye Li enters the Spiritual Vein Array to hide?" Liu Muchan asked in a low voice.

"No need. In a few days, those four old individuals will be begging at my door." Chi Xiao stood up, smirking playfully, pointing to the ground, "There is something underground here."

About to break out and overturn the entire academy, maybe even the entire civilization?

To suppress it, they might need to seek me.

At that time, I will specifically ask for Ye Li, let’s see, will those four old individuals dare disagree!!!

Chi Xiao felt a growth of grim murderous intent in his heart.

Those damn old fools.

If not for my current strength not yet restored to its peak, even if you four were at the Immortal King Realm, I could easily crush you. Immortal Venerate Realm, understand? My true realm is the Immortal Venerate Realm!

"Lately, relying on these two worthless individuals, Liu Muchan and Wang Chenggui, I’ve gathered some heavenly treasures needed for healing, and am not far from fully recovering." Chi Xiao walked into his chamber’s secret room, which was filled with a strong medicinal aroma.

Ze Civilization.

Buried Immortal Secret Realm.

Outside.

The atmosphere grew increasingly excited!

Figures like Fu Tonghai and Fu Qingrong trembled slightly.

Because, in front of them, on the screen, Fu Yi and Fu Ren had reached the edge of the Immortal River!!!

The exciting moment had arrived.

The legendary gift of the Immortal River was about to appear.

"Fu Family Master, congratulations in advance." The Buried Immortal City Lord cupped his hands and said.

"You are too kind, too kind..." Fu Tonghai said with a full smile, closely watching the screen.

At the same time.

Inside the Secret Realm, at the Immortal River’s edge, other contestants who had arrived early looked at Fu Ren and Fu Yi, and then...

Then...

They were stunned.

"Holy shit!!!!!! Immortal Venerate Realm Eighth Layer?"

"Fu... Fu... Fu Yi is at the Immortal Venerate Realm Eighth Layer?"

"Are you kidding?"

"Wasn’t he at the Immortal King Realm Eighth Layer?"

...

Sui Jian inhaled sharply, staring at Fu Yi in disbelief.

In his mind, a roaring explosion occurred, suddenly understanding why the Immortal River hadn’t bestowed a gift upon him.

This... It was waiting for Fu Yi!

No wonder the Immortal River resonated, it was also because of Fu Yi!

Sui Jian first felt shock, then jealousy, then bitterness, and finally peace.

If a contestant only slightly stronger than himself caused the Immortal River to resonate and received its gift, he would not be content.

But for someone who was previously at the Immortal King Eighth Layer and now at the Immortal Venerate Eighth Layer, he couldn’t summon the will to be discontent.

"Young Master Fu Yi, you’ve hidden well, congratulations!" Sui Jian took a deep breath and spoke, with a tone of slight flattery, having no choice, as Fu Yi was about to soar to great heights, and sucking up now was his only chance.

Fu Yi nodded, "Young Master Sui, you’ve hidden well yourself, reaching the Second Level of Immortal Venerate Realm, congratulations."

As they spoke, Fu Yi and Fu Ren walked toward the riverbank.

Toward the River Tablet.

Upon reading the inscription, Fu Ren was ecstatic, "Fu Yi, the Immortal River is going to grant you a gift!!!!!!!"

Fu Yi himself had a slightly flushed face.

To say he wasn’t excited would be a lie.

The Immortal River’s gift, it goes without saying, must be unimaginable.

But, how exactly to receive the Immortal River’s gift? That’s a question.

Fu Yi raised his head, looking at the Immortal River.

"Everyone, step back a bit." Fu Ren began clearing the area, making others give way, otherwise, if the Immortal River’s gift came and others nearby also benefited slightly, it would be unfair, the gift should belong entirely to Fu Yi.

"Yes, yes..." Though slightly disappointed and unsatisfied, the crowd stepped back obediently.

"Immortal River above, I am Fu Yi, fortunate to resonate with the Immortal River. Awakening the Immortal River? I do not know what orders the Immortal River has, but I shall accomplish them!" Fu Yi stood tall, looking toward the Boundless Immortal River, he cupped his hands and spoke loudly, respectfully.

The voice was neither humble nor overbearing, filled with confidence.

Full of enthusiasm.

This made those around, like Sui Jian, feel a burst of envy.

However...

After Fu Yi spoke.

There was no response.

Yes, absolutely no response.

"Is it necessary to use a drop of blood?" Fu Yi murmured, as he thought about it, a cut appeared on his finger, and he flicked his hand, letting a drop of blood fall toward the Immortal River.

But surprisingly...

The drop of blood was strangely blocked.

It failed to hit the Immortal River, as if an invisible current stopped it, eventually veering off and landing on the bank.

Very bizarre.

This...

The surrounding gazes were somewhat changed.

What’s going on?????

Why does it look like Fu Yi also can’t communicate with the Immortal River?

Could it be that the so-called Immortal River resonance and gift are fake?

Full of questions in their minds.

Fu Yi’s expression also changed somewhat.

Outside.

Many people looked at each other in confusion...

Not understanding.

The smiles and excitement of Fu Tonghai, Fu Qingrong, and others were somewhat extinguished.

Right at this moment.

"Right, how did I forget about the Devouring Immortal Body?" Fu Yi suddenly realized something, his face returning to a confident smile.

Thereupon.

He shouted: "Devouring Immortal Body!!!!!!!"

The tone was extraordinarily passionate.

He believed it was because he hadn’t activated his Devouring Immortal Body that the Immortal River didn’t resonate or provide a gift.

Now, he was activating his Devouring Immortal Body, essentially revealing his identity.

It must work.

The Devouring Immortal Body activated...

Around them, the spectators, all inhaled sharply, hair stood on end, and shocked, they trembled all over.

Holy damn.

The legendary Devouring Immortal Body?

Fu Yi actually possessed the legendary Devouring Immortal Body??????????

This is terrifying.

"There are always people better than you, and stronger entities out there." Among the crowd, Xu Xu murmured to himself, his emotions also stirred.

Everyone thought that with Fu Yi activating the Devouring Immortal Body, the Immortal River was bound to grant a gift?

However...

Yet again, an unexpected turn.

Nothing.

No movement whatsoever.

No matter how Fu Yi pushed the Devouring Immortal Body, the Immortal River remained completely unresponsive.
