CHAPTER 1176: CHAPTER 1116: AFTERMATH

This time, the top contender to breach the Thirteenth Chaos Zone, Hua Tianjue, died just like that!

Died at the hands of Ye Chen!

Within the entire third Treasure Cave, only Ye Chen remained.

Ye Chen felt no sympathy for Hua Tianjue’s death.

Hua Tianjue wanted to kill him, so dying was only what he deserved.

At this moment, Ye Chen looked at the mid-air in the Treasure Cave. Hua Tianjue hadn’t chosen any treasure, and after his death, there were still two treasures in the air: the golden, glimmering lamp and the scroll emitting a green glow.

However, Ye Chen only had one chance to pick a treasure, and he could only choose one.

Ye Chen was not in a hurry to select a treasure.

The tragic scene of Hongjue’s death was still vivid in Ye Chen’s mind.

He intended to sense thoroughly first which treasure was more suitable for him.

But before carefully sensing, Ye Chen felt a surge of emotion.

Indeed, the path of cultivation is incredibly perilous.

Out of twenty-seven people attempting to breach the Chaotic Heavenly Hall, twelve died before reaching the third heaven, leaving only fifteen.

And of those fifteen, excluding Ning Xiaoxiao and Divine Master Yuan Feng who left after picking a treasure in the second Treasure Cave, the remaining ten chose to further explore the third Treasure Cave, resulting in nearly total annihilation!

Ye Chen witnessed the deaths of many, except for Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi who weren’t dead before he entered the third Treasure Cave. He saw the rest perish.

Even Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi’s survival outside the Treasure Cave seemed improbable, as they failed to breach the cave, likely unable to contend with the green beast.

"Five died on the path to the third Treasure Cave, Hua Tianjue and Hongjue died inside, Yuan Qingzi, and Situ Chen are still unknown. In the Treasure Cave, only I remain."

"All for these few treasures ahead."

Ye Chen looked at the two Great Divine Treasures in the void, filled with emotion.

"Outside, chaos has surely ensued. Before entering the Thirteenth Chaos Zone, each of us left a Sensing Token behind, and Lord Emperor Xuan, who originally gathered us, can sense through it whether we died or not."

"While others’ deaths might not alarm Lord Emperor Xuan greatly, as he said before entering the Thirteenth Chaos Zone, survival depends solely on us. Now, even the leader from the Primordial God Mountain, Hua Tianjue, is dead. Lord Emperor Xuan will surely be shocked, as he himself is from the Primordial God Mountain."

Ye Chen pondered for a while and shook his head.

"Never mind, the critical part now is choosing which treasure."

Ye Chen carefully sensed the two treasures in the air but neither offered any unusual sensation, nor did they trigger the Chaos Cauldron like the Absolute Divine Fire did previously.

After observing for a while, Ye Chen had no choice but to sigh, "Seems I have to randomly select a treasure."

"The treasures within the third Treasure Cave must be extraordinarily valuable. Although Hongjue died after holding the Ancient Plate, her furious enhancement in Realm proves its value. Her death may not be due to the Ancient Plate but her own greed for rapid breakthroughs... After all, the ones who left these treasures are surely Star Lord Level experts. If they wanted to kill us, they wouldn’t need such effort, nor set traps in the treasures..."

With this in mind, Ye Chen felt a bit more at ease.

Then, after reviewing both the golden lamp and glowing green scroll, Ye Chen made his choice.

Ye Chen reached out towards the green glowing scroll.

Simultaneously reaching for the scroll, Ye Chen wrapped himself in endless Divine Power for protection, just in case.

Yet, to Ye Chen’s surprise, the scroll effortlessly fell into his hand, without a hint of Killing Force attacking him.

And when Ye Chen opened the scroll, he suddenly sensed an unmatched force emanating from it.

This force was not the Killing Force he had been wary of, but rather an unexpected teleporting power.

The green glowing scroll turned out to be a mysteriously profound Ancient Teleportation Scroll!

Boom!

Instantly, Ye Chen was enveloped by the unmatched teleporting force.

Even with his strong Cosmic Emperor Level defensive power, he couldn’t resist the teleportation Divine Power.

The terrifying teleportation force directly took Ye Chen, causing him to disappear from the third Treasure Cave.

In the moment of disappearance, Ye Chen’s Mind and Spirit contained only one thought: "Where is this scroll going to take me?!"

...

As Ye Chen disappeared from the third Treasure Cave.

The golden lamp that hadn’t been chosen also vanished.

At this moment, apart from the deceased, no one was left exploring the Chaotic Heavenly Hall.

Seemingly sensing that there were no more people left to explore, the entire Chaotic Heavenly Hall suddenly vanished!

Outside the Chaotic Heavenly Hall.

Ning Xiaoxiao, Divine Master Yuan Feng, and the other five who chose to leave after taking treasures from the second Treasure Cave were dumbfounded, mouths agape.

Initially, they were waiting outside to see if anyone else would emerge after exploring the Chaotic Heavenly Hall.

But now, Ning Xiaoxiao and the others were utterly caught off guard as the vast floating temple, "Chaotic Heavenly Hall," vanished!

Even as the Chaotic Heavenly Hall disappeared, the twenty-seven light circles on the ground where they’d entered vanished as well.
