Chapter 1696: Crisis! Chapter 1696: Crisis! Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Fortunately, what Ye Chen was worried about did not happen. Ye Chen reached the other side and exhaled in relief. Those few minutes had felt like years to him. He looked at the passage. The explosion energy from the Thousand Artifacts Explosion was about to dissipate! The people from the Fierce Demon Palace were still on the way, and there was still some distance to the other side. The Fierce Demon Palace naturally sensed that something was wrong, and an expert quickly transmitted his voice to Ye Chen, “Ye Chen, detonate another round of artifacts so that we can come over!” However, Ye Chen was unfazed. He looked at the forces of the Fierce Demon Palace with a faint smile. “As you can see, I’ve exhausted a lot of my energy. I’m afraid these few treasures aren’t enough.” As soon as he said this, the expressions of everyone from the Fierce Demon Palace changed. “Ye Chen, don’t go too far!” One of the Fierce Demon Palace’s Creation realm experts was so angry that his chest was heaving. What did he mean by huge consumption? They were not fools. Everyone could tell that Ye Chen was completely fine. He even looked like he was full of energy. Ye Chen did not respond to them, and merely stared straight at them. After a short while, he said, “Fierce Demon Palace, you’d better consider this carefully. There are already some people who have reached this side. I believe you’ll be able to judge which is more important between the treasures and the Demon Saint’s inheritance.” Ye Chen’s words rendered the forces of the Fierce Demon Palace speechless. They had come to the Demon Saint Secret Realm for the true legacy, yet this fellow was extorting them again. “Hmph, give him the treasures!” When the Creation realm expert spoke, the Dao Integration realm experts did not dare to refuse. They could only take out their treasures one by one with pained expressions. “You’re an eighth-level Dao Integration realm expert, yet you’re only giving me two Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts? Do you think that I’m a beggar?” Ye Chen casually threw the two Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts to the ground with a look of disdain. “I… You robbed me once, so I don’t have any more treasures now.” The Dao Integration realm expert looked at Ye Chen with a sorrowful expression. It was not that he did not have any treasures back then, but he had been robbed by Ye Chen already, so he had nothing valuable left. “If you don’t have any treasures, think of a way yourself!” He and the Fierce Demon Palace were already at loggerheads, so there was no reason to extend kindness to them. “Ye Chen, you b*stard!” At this moment, a Creation realm expert suddenly cursed. No one had expected that Ye Chen would do this at the critical moment! Roar! Roar! The deafening roars of the demonic beasts continued, and the people of the Fierce Demon Palace were suddenly surrounded by demonic beasts. These demonic beasts stared at these people with their scarlet eyes, ready to start their hunt. “I hope you have a good time!” Ye Chen smiled and turned to leave. “Ye Chen, just you wait. I’ll definitely kill you!” A Creation realm expert was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. They had agreed to take out the treasures so that Ye Chen would grant them safe passage, but they had been tricked. However, now was not the time to dwell on the matter, as they had to fight with their lives on the line. Even the Creation realm experts were in danger of dying. “Ye Chen, is it really okay for you to do this?” At this moment, Liang Xue Yue spoke up. Ye Chen smiled, but did not say anything. After all, he was already embroiled in a state of irreconcilable conflict with the Fierce Demon Palace. It would be best if all of their experts died here. Ye Chen then ignored the fighting and left with Ji Lin and the others. As for the others, they were afraid that the Demon Saint’s legacy would be snatched away, so they quickly rushed into the depths of the palace. Along the way, Ye Chen and the others did not meet any cultivators, but after walking for more than an hour, he stopped. Looking ahead, he discovered that some cultivators were dying. It was a tragic sight. “Ye Chen, what’s going on?” Liang Xue Yue said with a puzzled look. These cultivators were all on the verge of death. “There should be powerful demonic beasts around here, so let’s be careful.” Ye Chen led them over carefully. Not long after, they suddenly heard a rustling sound. “Everyone, be careful. The demonic beast should be nearby!” Hiss! At this moment, Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed as he spotted a peak-level Dao Integration Stage spider demonic beast. This spider had six eyes on its face. Three pairs of dark green eyes stared at Ye Chen. “You guys step back. I’ll deal with it!” Chen Feng and the others could not help him fight this demonic beast, and neither could Ji Lin and Liang Xue Yue. Ye Chen took a step forward, holding a Dao Integration-grade divine artifact in his hand. His ghostly figure charged forward. The moment he rushed over, he pushed off against the ground to jump up. When he jumped up, Ye Chen swung his Dao Integration-grade sword. The moment he attacked, the spider demonic beast retreated slightly and spat out spider silk. The spider silk was laced with sticky mucus and terrifying poison. Ye Chen’s sword cut through the silk as he arrived in front of it. He raised his arm again and slashed down. The sword landed on the spider’s head. Bang! There was a muffled sound, but the spider’s skin was not damaged at all. Ye Chen frowned. The spider’s carapace was indeed very tough. “Ye Chen, look, there are so many spiders.” At this moment, Ji Lin suddenly spoke. Countless spider demonic beasts had actually appeared around them. Fortunately, the strength of these spiders was not the same as this one. There were Primordial Chaos realm and Dao Integration realm demonic spiders. “All of you, hold them off together. After I deal with this demonic beast, I’ll rush over.” Ye Chen had to deal with this demonic spider as soon as possible so that he could help the others. Otherwise, they would lose this war of attrition as the spiders had the numerical advantage. “Masters, lend me your strength!” With Ye Chen’s current strength, it was still too difficult for him to fight a peak-level Dao Integration realm demonic beast without using the Blood Demon Sword. Therefore, he asked the three Golden Buddhas for assistance. “Very well!” At this moment, the three Golden Buddhas in the Samsara Graveyard channeled their spiritual energy into Ye Chen’s body. In less than three minutes, Ye Chen’s aura had risen from the third level of the Primordial Chaos realm to the fourth level of the Dao Integration realm. However, if he continued to break through, his body would start to shatter. “Let’s fight!” Ye Chen’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit. Then, his figure flashed and he charged forward. His ghost-like figure appeared beside the spider and he unleashed a punch. Boom! The spider’s body was sent flying, and it let out a miserable cry. Ye Chen’s expression did not change at all as he gripped his sword and pursued it.
