Chapter 134: The Happy Hour Is About To Begin
When Ye Chen escaped from the floating island, he did not carefully observe this forest until today when he came out of the cave.
He caressed the bone jade that Old Jia had given him, feeling its warmth and freshness.
The exhaustion of struggling to open the handcuffs all night had disappeared.
Even though the forest was covered by the dense canopy, it didn't feel dark; on the contrary, it felt somewhat bright.
If it weren't for knowing that this place was the prison of the heavens, with dangers lurking everywhere, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this place was the outskirts.
But who knows if there are other cunning hunters behind those sturdy tree trunks.
Or if there are broken bones buried beneath the dense soil.
The evil hidden beneath this forest is just the tip of the iceberg in the power of the heavens.
They have destroyed countless universes, completely annihilating worlds full of life.
The reason for this is unknown, but the elusive legend indicates that the power of the heavens has always been pursuing greater strength and eternal immutability.
And now, the few people standing in front of the cave are ants who have stood up against this unjust fate.
But they have ambitions to pluck the sun, moon, and stars from the mortal realm.
However, this does not mean that they have no chance.
At this moment, they are about to take the first step towards realizing their ideals.
"Action begins, let's go!"
With the command, everyone swiftly moved through the treetops.
To avoid becoming targets for others, few people would fly here.
But Old Jia was an exception. His race did not have the agile physique of others, and beneath his shell, there were wings for flying.
To protect Old Jia's safety, everyone surrounded this honest and simple beetle, so as not to be ambushed by others.
Ye Chen struggled to keep up with everyone's pace and lagged behind.
Seeing that he was about to be left behind, Feng Chun felt very guilty.
"Teacher, you go with them first. I remember the map and will catch up soon."
Feng Chun, just like his name, was simple and honest. In order not to burden Ye Chen, he was willing to travel alone in this dangerous place.
It was time to teach Feng Chun a lesson.
Ye Chen couldn't allow his disciple to be so clueless. Without his care, he might be left with nothing, not even bones.
"We have all memorized the map, we know the way, but this world is still unfamiliar to us. We have only one goal, to survive and adapt here.
If Feng Chun wants to lead his clan away from their original world, Ye Chen could even help them find a place on Earth where they could survive.
Feng Chun, who looked similar to humans, should be able to live well there.
But human hearts are treacherous, and it is impossible for everyone to unite like Feng Chun's race when facing the extinction of their clan.
So the only way is to quickly adapt to this colorful melting pot to avoid being manipulated by other races.
There is no need to rush to the front now; letting them clear the traps ahead would make it easier.
And they must have something that requires his help, otherwise they wouldn't have invited him.
This was soon proven.
At the entrance of the target valley, everyone hid behind a towering tree.
The elves were waiting for Ye Chen, but they showed no impatience.
The reason was simple: there was a huge soul-refining array at the entrance of this valley.
Anyone wearing a collar who entered would trigger a soul attack from this array.
Unlike the soul purgatory on the handcuffs, the attack from this array was aimed at instantly killing the intruder.
That's why they needed Ye Chen's help.
Only by letting Ye Chen, who is not wearing a collar, go in and deactivate the large formation inside, can they enter smoothly.
Otherwise, they would die in the formation before even entering the valley.
And to break this formation, they need to have extremely strong power to destroy one of the stone discs that serve as the formation's core.
Ye Chen's strength as a king is just enough to complete this mission.
However, all of this is based on the assumption that the intelligence they obtained is accurate.
But obviously, they have been deceived.
Because after Ye Chen entered the valley, a huge soul formation instantly enveloped him.
The intense soul vibration even forced others to retreat.
There was also a faint movement coming from the handcuffs.
Feng Chun's eyes instantly turned bloodshot as he saw his teacher being trapped in a soul formation much stronger than the one last night. He grabbed the elf's collar and, regardless of provoking a strong opponent who was far from reaching the level of a king, he crazily questioned:
"You said there wouldn't be any problem if he didn't wear the collar! Why did the formation still activate when my teacher went in? Are you trying to kill him? My teacher even wanted to help you!"
...Flowers are requested...
Faced with Feng Chun's questioning, the elf had nothing to say.
Indeed, their intelligence was wrong this time, and they were deceived by someone else.
But arguing with Feng Chun about this now was pointless. It was extremely dangerous for them to stay here with such a powerful formation fluctuation.
The elf knocked Feng Chun unconscious and quickly led everyone away from there.
Meanwhile, the enforcers inside the formation also noticed the disturbance caused by someone breaking the formation.
In a magnificent office, a fat man with a huge beer belly struggled to squeeze out from behind the door.
The door frame had already been squeezed with a gap.
It was smooth and even had a patina.
It was clear that he had been in this place for many years.
This fat body was over ten meters tall, and this huge enforcer palace was like an ordinary house for him.
Except for the small door, everything was comfortable.
He was the chief enforcer of this area, relying on the power of his race to secure a position with benefits in this area.
But the other enforcers were not as lucky as him. They came from different races and were all enforcers in this area.
Different benefits were allocated based on the level of contribution in the invasion of different universes.
If the Earth's defense line had been successfully breached by the Earth-Shaking Dark Bear back then, perhaps Ye Chen could have found a place for the Bear Clan on the Heavenly Islands.
At present, they all gathered in the square, looking at the intense fluctuations coming from the formation in the valley, their eyes shining.
"Chief enforcer, a big guy has come back this time. Promotion is within reach."
"Yeah, yeah, don't forget about us when the time comes."
Compliments from his subordinates made the giant very pleased.
He was just one step away from being promoted to the lowest-level manager on the Heavenly Islands, no longer needing to stay in this smoky place.
The Heavenly Islands were the place he had always dreamed of, where he could obtain things that couldn't be compared to what the Celestial Prison could offer.
This soul formation would activate to a certain degree based on the invader's soul strength.
From the current situation of the formation operating at full power, the invader was definitely a big fish.
As long as he could capture this invader, he would have completed all his missions over the years.
He patted his exposed belly outside his uniform, his eyes shining as he looked at the formation, unable to contain his excitement, and said:
"The happy hour is about to begin!"
