Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 746 - 745: Celestial Moon Peak’s Traitor!

Valley of Life and Death!

Ye Qingchen’s eyes flashed, his gaze flickering.

This was the first time he heard someone mention it. Moreover, the fact that Su Moran mentioned it now implied that this place was surely not something ordinary.

"This place is a prison of Taotian Palace, specifically meant for those disciples who committed crimes that aren’t severe enough for execution, giving them a slim chance of survival."

Su Moran said casually.

"So this place is extremely dangerous, huh?"

Ye Qingchen slightly lowered his eyes.

"Indeed, this place mostly suppresses some external demonic entities that harbor great resentment towards Taotian Palace! Once a disciple enters, naturally, they will be besieged, narrowly surviving."

"Till now, not one in a hundred disciples have walked out of the Valley of Life and Death!" Su Moran looked silently at Ye Qingchen: "Do you regret following me to Heaven-Shocking Peak now?"

"What is there to regret?"

Ye Qingchen sneered.

If it weren’t for Su Moran stepping forward back then, he would have been expelled from Taotian Palace long ago. He felt no sense of belonging to the Kunlun Realm’s Taotian Palace, except that Heaven-Shocking Peak seemed slightly better to him.

"Though the Valley of Life and Death is indeed a place with narrow survival, it doesn’t mean there’s absolutely no chance." Su Moran responded with a gentle smile, "You still have seven days to prepare properly."

Ye Qingchen slapped his forehead, suddenly recalling something. "I have one thing here; I’d like you to help me refine it into a magical artifact!"

"Oh, what is it?" Su Moran asked.

"The corpse of Venerable Yin Mountain!" Ye Qingchen enunciated each word.

...

Although the spiritual qi at Heaven-Shocking Peak isn’t as good as at Hidden Dragon Mountain, it’s not too far off. Moreover, with Su Moran being a top-level Earth Immortal and the daughter of the previous Sect Leader, there are naturally plenty of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.

Originally, Ye Qingchen wanted to enhance his cultivation a bit.

But he hadn’t been a Human Immortal for long; his foundation and depth were insufficient to support an advancement in realm within just seven days. Therefore, in the coming days, aside from comprehending the "Great Freedom Heaven-Trapping Sword," he would also indirectly refine some elixir pills for emergencies.

Regarding his silver hair, Su Moran took a glance and, upon learning that this was the backlash from using the "Heaven-Slaying Immortal Sword Scripture," was silent for a moment before uttering the same words as the Three-tailed Fox—

Completely abandon the "Heaven-Slaying Immortal Sword Scripture"!

After saying that, Su Moran focused on refining the magical artifact.

The bones of a top-level Earth Immortal are indeed the best choice for refining a magical artifact. Just like Marquis Guangjun, who possessed a Dragon Bone Spear, made using the spine of a top-level Earth Immortal Flood Dragon.

Yet, it took a full thirteen years.

However, due to the urgency of time, it was naturally impossible to refine such a formidable artifact. Fortunately, Ye Qingchen’s demands weren’t high; he only needed nine swords to pair with his Star Sword to deploy a Sword Array.

In this way, seven days were more than enough.

...

Taotian Palace.

Valley of Life and Death!

This is the most feared place among the disciples of Taotian Palace. Not only does it suppress numerous evil cultivators and demonic entities, but it also houses external calamities in the form of Demon Kings, making it a truly dangerous place.

Upon entering the valley, life and death are separated, which is why it’s named—Valley of Life and Death!

At this moment.

Inside the Valley of Life and Death, by the lakeside, sat a young man.

Tall and handsome features, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, draped in white robes, holding a fishing rod, he sat there completely motionless, like a stone sculpture, unclear how long he’d been sitting.

Suddenly.

The young man instinctively perceived something and directly opened his eyes, the precision of his gaze resonating through the void, and then he sneered:

"Ye Xukong, what brings the Supreme Elder of Celestial Moon Peak here?"

Behind the young man.

A faint light gathered, forming the shadow of an elderly woman.

It was.

Night Xukong, the Supreme Elder of Celestial Moon Peak!

"Rebellious disciple, do you realize your crime?" Ye Xukong said coldly, rebuking.

"Haha, Master, what crime do I have?" The young man didn’t even turn his head, although smiling, his voice lacked any warmth, "If you wish me to confess, please return!"

Ye Xukong seemed to have anticipated the young man’s reaction, her expression unchanged, after a brief silence, she slowly spoke: "Do you want to go out?"

"You’ll let me out?" The young man raised his eyebrows.

Once entering the Valley of Life and Death, life and death are dictated by fate, and the only way out is to fight a bloody path with one’s strength. Of course, there are exceptions.

The young man was suppressed by Ye Xukong in the Valley of Life and Death; if she was willing to relent, he could also leave.

"Help me kill someone!" Ye Xukong didn’t respond directly but said: "In a few days, a disciple of Taotian Palace will enter the Valley of Life and Death. I don’t know if he’ll be able to walk out, but I don’t want to see any surprises."

"Who is it? What’s his cultivation?"

The young man asked indifferently.

"Ye Qingchen, Human Immortal Second Layer!" Ye Xukong replied.

Upon hearing, the young man frowned.

It’s known.

The Valley of Life and Death is extremely perilous, and with such cultivation, this person might not survive for half a day.

"This disciple is under Su Moran of Heaven-Shocking Peak, he rang twelve times on the Spirit Heaven Bell during the aptitude test!" Ye Xukong continued.

"Twelve times!" The young man was extremely moved.

Even he only managed eight rings, and the existence in Heaven-Shocking Peak only achieved nine rings. This disciple ringing twelve times reflects what kind of terrifying potential?

But then, he curled up a cold smile on his lips.

A youth who rang twelve bells did not join any of the Seven Peaks but entered Heaven-Shocking Peak, signifying that not only his Master but perhaps other Supreme Elders misjudged.

"Thus, even with only a Human Immortal Second Layer, his strength is extraordinary. He had already killed several Human Immortals while he was in the Celestial Venerable Realm." Ye Xukong added.

"What a frightening combat strength!"

The young man showed a shift in his expression.

Each realm enhances one’s power level significantly, especially between Celestial Venerable and Human Immortal. Ye Qingchen, able to slay several Human Immortals, relied not on luck but on unbelievably strong power!

"Yes, during the task in the Withered Forest, he slew two Bone Flood Dragons, killed Xiao Qi’an, the master of Ten Thousand Gods Sect, and extinguished Venerable Yin Mountain’s remnant soul!"

"A few days ago, at Void Peak, he single-handedly overwhelmed the Law Enforcement Team! Qi Yeheng was crippled, Cheng Hu was paralyzed, Xia Ji perished!"

Ye Xukong continued.

"What?"

The young man was astounded.

He knew very well the strength of the Bone Flood Dragons, Xiao Qi’an, and Venerable Yin Mountain’s remnant soul. How could he not understand the combat power of Qi Yeheng, Cheng Hu, Xia Ji, individuals who joined the Law Enforcement Team, undefeated in their respective tiers?

This youth’s strength utterly defied realm expectations, calling it terrifying!

"If you kill Ye Qingchen, I’ll allow you to leave the Valley of Life and Death!"

Ye Xukong said quietly.

Upon hearing that, the young man slowly raised his head, a gradually lifting smile, initially just a grin, evolved into full-throated laughter, with wild laughter reverberating sky and earth, turning the lake turbulent.

In the vast Valley of Life and Death, as if doom was descending, countless demon beasts scrambled away in panic.

Numerous demon dao and evil cultivators showed horrified expressions, trembling.

Even.

At this moment.

Ye Xukong’s projection was also shredded by the laughter. Looking at the shattered projection, he suddenly stifled his laughter:

"Let me meet him!"

The young man’s eyes emitted chill.

Like white horses passing the gap.

In no time, seven days passed.

It was already the day of judgment!
