Chapter 1808 Heading to the 3rd Floor
Chapter 1808 Heading to the 3rd Floor
Near the altar on the second floor of the Moon God Platform, the temporary camp set up by Chen Wanli has not yet completely become ineffective.
The main Protoss army has moved to the new city site.
With the Golden Crow Formation protecting it, the construction of the city can begin.
On the contrary, Chen Wanli, Ye Zhenjun, and the Dragon King's group stayed at the camp to discuss their next move.
The teleportation array to the third floor was right in front of us, and even the Soul Devourers guarding this place had been wiped out.
Even so, no one dared to make a move.
After all, after the third level of the Moon God Platform, very few people who went in and came back alive.
Moreover, everyone has their own thoughts, and some things need to be clearly explained before we can set off.
Chen Wanli was in no hurry to speak. He silently watched the Dragon King and Ye Zhenjun stare at each other, but his mind sank down. He first used his soul to sense the state of the golden body.
For the past few months, the golden body has been lurking in a secluded spot on the third floor, refining its soul power, and its range of activity is within a radius of a hundred miles.
The main reason is that the strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of his cultivation is simply not enough. If he encounters a powerful opponent, even his main body cannot provide timely support.
But now, it's appropriate to take some risks and go out to explore.
This will also prevent Ye Zhenjun from being misled by his words at that time.
Not far from the entrance to the third floor, in a crevice of a mountain rock covered with thick snow, the golden-bodied Yazi moved its body and stood up.
It had already explored the surrounding area for miles, and all it could see was absolute white and blue.
Endless ice sculpted rugged and steep terrain, thick snow covered all the undulations, and the sky was a depressing leaden gray, with fine ice crystals constantly falling silently.
The biting chill doesn't just affect the surface; it carries a corrosive force, slowly penetrating the energy core, attempting to freeze its spirituality.
With a soft rustling sound, it emerged from the crevice in the mountain rocks and began to explore the surrounding area...
Chen Wanli, still on the second floor, opened his eyes and frowned almost imperceptibly.
The exploration of the golden body is currently limited, but that does not prevent the conclusion from being exceptionally clear: cold, extreme cold, and a chill that seems to freeze the soul.
He vaguely felt that it was not just the cold of ice and snow, but also related to some kind of extremely yin and cold water element.
It's hard to say exactly what it is, but it's definitely not a benevolent place.
He turned around and saw Ye Zhenjun sitting in two rows with the Dragon King, Kuafu Chong, and Fang Fengting.
Xuan San and Xuan Lie stood on the side of Chen Wanli and attacked him.
"...Apart from the Demon King of Heaven and Earth, only I am the one who survived from the third floor."
Ye Zhenjun held an ancient jade slip in his hand, a confident smile on his face.
The Dragon King did not deny it.
Kuafu Chong and Fang Fengting stared at Ye Zhenjun's eyes with considerable tension.
Chen Wanli chose to send the two of them to the Moon Extreme God Platform together, while the closest ancestor, Lei Ze, was left behind to oversee the city's construction.
Logically speaking, when going to dangerous places, one should bring along trusted confidants.
For Chen Wanli, neither of them were absolute confidants.
This completely illogical choice instilled a strong sense of crisis in them.
Is Chen Wanli perhaps trying to kill them?
"Now that we are about to enter dangerous territory together, I will certainly not be stingy with sharing information."
The first two levels of the Divine Platform this month are actually the simplest.
But from there onward, each layer has completely different characteristics.
Ye Zhenjun said leisurely.
"Special characteristics?" The Dragon King squinted.
"The characteristics of the three layers are related to 'water,' 'ice,' and 'cold.'"
Ye Zhenjun paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, lingering for a moment on the Dragon King's powerful physique, before continuing:
"Danger? Of course there is. The extreme cold environment tests one's spiritual power and physical foundation, and there may be disturbances from ice and snow spirits, cold spirits and yin winds."
However, compared to the direct impact on the souls of the first two levels, the danger of this level is more about 'trapping' and 'exhaustion'.
With sufficient preparation and steady progress, the risks are actually relatively controllable.
On the contrary, there are some ice-attribute treasures and spiritual materials here..."
"Oh? Judging from your tone, it sounds like a good place to find treasure?" the Dragon King asked in a deep voice, his whiskers swaying as he scrutinized the man.
"I suppose so!" Ye Zhenjun's smile deepened.
"Although last time, I was just a small fry and didn't get any treasure."
But at least I've gained some knowledge.
Even if I don't say it, you can probably guess that in extremely cold regions, rare ice-attribute spiritual essences are often born.
Like the Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Heart Jade, it is an excellent material for stabilizing the soul and refining ice-type magic weapons.
The Mysterious Frost Snow Lotus is born in the extreme cold of the Spirit Eye. Its petals can cure many kinds of fire and heat poisons in the world, and its seeds can purify spiritual power and slightly help with cultivation.
It might even contain condensed Cold Marrow Spirit Liquid, which has incredible effects on tempering the physical body, especially strengthening bones and meridians.
When Kuafu Chong heard about "tempering the physical body" and "strengthening the bones," the muscles on his bronze face twitched slightly. Kuafu was a descendant of the God of Giant Strength, and he needed these things most to train his physical body to the limit.
Fang Fengting, on the other hand, was more interested in "stabilizing the soul" and "purifying spiritual power".
The Dragon King remained unmoved; whether it was treasure or bait, only heaven knew.
What Ye Zhenjun said was a mix of truth and falsehood; the henchman's statement was definitely false! The rest was impossible to judge.
It glanced at Chen Wanli out of the corner of its eye.
Chen Wanli's eyes were filled with greed, and he licked his lips, his face showing obvious interest.
"So, we can slow down and gather some resources instead?"
Chen Wanli spoke at the opportune moment, his tone calm and revealing no particular inclination.
"What you say, young friend Chen, is absolutely right." Ye Zhenjun stroked his beard and nodded.
"The road ahead is unpredictable, so every bit of strength gained is a bonus. This environment is unique, and treasures are often accompanied by dangers, but with our strength, as long as we don't rashly venture into certain obviously dangerous areas and gradually explore and clear them out, the gains should be considerable."
"We can head down to the lower levels once everyone has replenished their supplies. After all, sharpening your axe won't delay your work."
His words were reasonable, portraying the third floor as a "resource replenishment point" that, while risky, offered more opportunities, thus greatly downplaying the potential fatal crisis.
The Dragon King pondered without speaking. Its goal was to explore each level of the Moon God Platform and find the answers it sought, so it naturally wouldn't refuse.
Kuafu Chong and Fang Fengting also looked thoughtful.
However, a warning bell rang in Chen Wanli's mind.
The more casually Ye Zhenjun spoke, the more vigilant he became.
Based on the feeling of the golden body, this place is definitely not a simple "ice-attribute spiritual material gathering site".
Ye Zhenjun's purpose was unclear, and it was hard to say whether it was malicious, but he didn't believe it was purely out of goodwill either.
Chen Wan's expression remained unchanged, and he followed Ye Zhenjun's words, saying, "Since there is an opportunity, we naturally cannot miss it."
We'll need Elder Ye to guide us then, so we can be more efficient.
These words were spoken with an extremely cooperative and congenial expression.
For some reason, the more cooperative Chen Wanli was, the more uneasy Ye Zhenjun felt.
This kid is good at playing dumb to fool others. He talks a good game, but when it comes to doing things, he's ruthless and vicious.
The Dragon King nodded in agreement with Chen Wanli: "Since you've agreed, I have no objection. But Lord Ye, you really don't intend to lead everyone astray, do you?"
"???" Ye Zhenjun rolled his eyes, and said meaningfully, "The Moon Extreme Divine Platform has seven levels!"
If we had to interpret it, this means that even if we were to sell to everyone, we wouldn't sell to them on the third floor.
The Dragon King chuckled dryly a few times.
No one said anything more, and they all looked at Chen Wanli.
Chen Wanli pondered for a moment, and now everything was ready.
On the side of the gods, he had made all the necessary arrangements. Ancestor Lei Ze and Xiang Shou Shi should be able to perfectly execute his backup plans.
And I must explore this Moon God Platform.
The reason is simple: the allure of refining the void. The affairs of the spirit realm are not only of interest to the Dragon King and the Demon King of Heaven and Earth, but also to myself!
If one can refine one's emptiness, wouldn't the troubles of the Demon Cave be easily smoothed over?
The various spiritual herbs and materials in the Moon God Altar can also help one's wives advance further.
This is a step that must be taken, so I don't mind going in for a duel with these old devils!
We've won! The Path to Immortality!
Lost? It's impossible to lose.
The Golden God's Nascent Soul is about to transform into a deity, and he will soon achieve perfect deity transformation.
As long as no one from the Void Refinement Realm makes a move, I wouldn't dare say I'm invincible against Old Ghost, but if he wants to leave, no one can stop him.
The only concern is Ye Junshen of Earth; his Nascent Soul stage won't last much longer.
Chen Wanli had actually hesitated, deciding to return to Earth first before exploring the Lunar Observatory.
However, since his nascent soul was not yet a deity, he could not contact the Earth side to break the seal, so he had no choice but to enter the Moon God Platform first.
The results of the exploration must be available within a month, regardless of the outcome.
After making up his mind, Chen Wanli nodded and said, "Then let's prepare to set off! Arrange which subordinates you each want to bring as soon as possible! We'll depart in an hour!"
……
After a stick of incense.
Dozens of figures were ready in front of the teleportation array.
To Chen Wanli's surprise, Ye Zhenjun brought eighteen subordinates, each wearing a bamboo hat.
He always thought Ye Zhenjun was a loner!
The Dragon King also brought his Dragon Blood Guards, and even Long Jihai was in the group.
On the contrary, Kuafu Chong and Fang Fengting did not bring all their clan's elites. Instead, they drew more than ten Nascent Soul stage warriors from the Divine Clan army.
This includes Huaxu's third wife.
After all, in their eyes, this trip was a death sentence, so naturally they wouldn't bring their relatives along.
Without further ado, Chen Wanli led the way as they stepped onto the teleportation array.
Having already thoroughly understood the formation, Chen Wanli activated his spell, and a beam of white light shot into the sky.
After undergoing a violent upheaval.
Before my eyes was an overwhelming expanse of white, and in my ears was the howling, sharp wind.
Before my feet even touched the ground, I felt an extreme cold, like millions of ice needles piercing through my protective aura and stabbing into my bone marrow.
The air was thick and cold; each breath felt like inhaling shards of ice, stinging my lungs...
