332: Chapter 332 The True Face of the Lighthouse

"Chen Yi, just you wait, I'm coming!"

Gu Fan gave a cold snort and activated the talisman.

The power of space enveloped him and his Contracted Spirit Beast.

With a flash of light, they teleported inside the barrier!

Since I can't break the barrier, can't I just hide from you?

As the teleportation completed, the talisman turned into ashes and dissipated!

The retreat path was cut off!

"The Crystal Palace is mine! The Queen's gaze should also be mine! Chen Yi, you must die!"

Gu Fan screamed crazily in his heart; the desire for power and jealousy towards Chen Yi completely consumed him.

Almost without the slightest hesitation, he took his Contracted Girls and stepped into the territory of the Ultimate Darkness Zone.

---

Almost shortly after Gu Fan sneaked into the Ultimate Darkness Zone.

Outside the barrier, two black shadows followed closely and arrived at this place.

They were wearing black robes, but it still couldn't hide their graceful and alluring figures underneath.

Codename: Shadow Brake, Rank 9, Stage 4!

Codename: Bone Erosion, Rank 9, Stage 3!

Both were trusted Demon Emperors under the Queen Wuming of the Demon Abyss Cult!

Originally, the Queen intended to send a stronger Demon Emperor to capture Chen Yi!

But considering that excessively strong energy fluctuations might alert those Beast Tamers stationed outside, they were ultimately chosen.

Their Rank 9 strength was enough to suppress Chen Yi based on his estimated strength, without causing too much of a stir.

As Demon Emperors, they would not be subject to any level restrictions when entering the Antarctica secret realm.

Relying on their Rank 9 strength and a positioning seed left on Black Rose beforehand.

They were able to catch up from behind in a very short time and track him here.

The only thing they found tricky was that before entering the secret realm, to avoid the eyes and ears of the powerful figures stationed by the Dragon Kingdom and other forces, they had to lurk and wait for two and a half months before finding an opportunity to sneak in quietly!

Unexpectedly, in only seven months in total, Chen Yi had actually fought his way to the final Ultimate Darkness Zone!

It was truly beyond imagination!

Shadow Brake and Bone Erosion both possessed peerless beauty, fiery red lips, and voluptuous figures, full of the deadly temptation of mature women.

At this moment, they examined the barrier in front of them, a wicked smile curling at the corners of their mouths.

"But that's fine too. Chen Yi is right here in this final Ultimate Darkness Zone, which saves us the trouble of searching everywhere."

"Indeed, better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early! Now, it's like catching a turtle in a jar!"

The two Demon Emperors looked at each other, both seeing determination in each other's eyes.

This time, the Queen issued a death order—Chen Yi must be invited back to the Sect!

If Chen Yi resists, they are allowed to use Soul Shackles to forcefully restrain him!

At the same time, retrieving the stolen final potion was also an important goal.

However, just as they were preparing to step into the barrier, their keen perception made them notice a trace of abnormality.

"Wait---"

Shadow Brake frowned, "There is a lingering aura of Black Rose here, but it's very strange!"

Bone Erosion also sensed it and chimed in, "Her demonic energy... has faded a lot? It's almost imperceptible, and instead... it's mixed with a scent that belongs to Chen Yi?"

A guess arose in both of their hearts simultaneously.

Could Black Rose have already successfully established a Demon Seed Contract with Chen Yi?

But if the contract was successful, why didn't she immediately take Chen Yi back to the Sect to report?

Instead, she continued to linger in the depths of this secret realm?

Something is definitely fishy!

Shadow Brake made a prompt decision and took out a communication feather.

This was a one-time remote communication secret treasure, which even the spatial barriers of the secret realm could not block!

She quickly transmitted the current situation, including that they had arrived at the entrance of the Ultimate Darkness Zone and discovered the abnormality in Black Rose's aura, back to the Demon Abyss Cult headquarters.

Far away in the core area, Queen Wuming, upon receiving this message, had a layer of gloom cover her beautiful face.

Her slender fingers gently tapped the armrest of the throne, and she fell into deep thought.

Black Rose's state and Chen Yi's speed of progress seemed to slightly exceed her initial expectations.

A feeling that things were getting out of control faintly emerged in her heart.

After sending the message, Shadow Brake and Bone Erosion did not delay any longer.

They casually threw two punches and successfully shattered the barrier, which turned into two blue talismans and drifted down!

They caught the talismans, their figures flashed, and they silently passed through the barrier, stepping into the darkness of the Ultimate Darkness Zone.

---

Just at almost the same time the two Rank 9 Demon Emperors stepped into the Ultimate Darkness Zone.

Arriving at the lighthouse again, in Chen Yi's team that had just finished a round of cultivation, Lilian's delicate body trembled violently!

Countless future visions flooded into her mind!

"Ah!"

Lilian let out a short exclamation, and fine cold sweat seeped out on her forehead.

"Lilian, what's wrong?"

Chu Feiyu, who was closest to her, hurriedly supported her.

Everyone's gaze was also cast over.

Lilian shook her head vigorously, trying to calm her racing heart and chaotic thoughts.

She turned to look at Chen Yi: "Chen Yi! I... I saw it!"

"That Gu Fan! He... he has chased after us!"

"He seems to have some secret treasure that can forcibly raise his power to Rank 9. He's not easy to deal with!"

"Besides that, there are also two Rank 9 Demon Emperors. They are very strong and both come from the Demon Abyss Cult. Their target is you, Chen Yi!"

Chen Yi's heart sank upon hearing this.

It would be one thing if that persistent guy Gu Fan caught up.

But to think that two Rank 9 or higher Demon Emperors were also targeting him?

The crisis came so fast and so fiercely, exceeding his expectations.

The girls also gasped.

They had just broken through to the mid-stage of Rank 7 and thought they could show off their skills...

Unexpectedly, what came were Rank 9 Demon Emperors?

How can we fight this?

Chen Yi thought to himself, and the sea calming pearl's defensive mode was ready to be activated at any time, a layer of invisible spatial fluctuations faintly rippling out from him as the center.

However, Lilian's precognition had not ended.

She covered her forehead, which was still somewhat swollen, and pointed to the lighthouse emitting constant light behind everyone.

"And the lighthouse! The lighthouse is a very good place for cultivation. Gu Fan is setting up a trap and won't show himself until half a day later. We can go there to cultivate, and then we will be able to deal with them!"

Chen Yi's gaze narrowed as he looked at that seemingly ordinary lighthouse.

Lilian's precognition ability had been verified many times and could not be ignored.

"Let's go, let's take a look!"

He made a prompt decision and led everyone to quickly walk towards the base of the lighthouse.

After getting closer, they discovered that this lighthouse was not a lighthouse on the sea level.

It was a huge, completely pearly white stone tablet!

The surface of the stone tablet was covered with dense, twisted, complex, and completely incomprehensible ancient characters, emitting a vast aura.

Chen Yi reached out and gently touched the cold surface of the stone tablet.

In an instant, a cold voice of rules resounded in everyone's mind once again.

[Origin Echo!]

[Participants can resonate their own spiritual power with the stone tablet, face the origin of their own power, and endure its interrogation!]

[By passing the interrogation, one can purify their bloodline, understand the path ahead, and enhance their origin power!]
