494: The Yellow Springs Map Exposed

"Do we even need to guess? It must be someone from within our Four Great Super Factions," Yan Hengshan said.

"Old Yan is right. There is constant competition within the Four Great Super Factions, so it's entirely possible that someone targeted this place," said the white-haired old woman.

"Alright, stop talking about this for now. Let's go inside and investigate first. If we can find image stones or something similar, we might find some clues," Yan Hengshan said in a deep voice.

Following this, the group entered the North Cotton Region City and began searching everywhere for clues.

Several hours quickly passed.

After a thorough search, the group finally found some image stones amidst a pile of ruins.

When they projected the images from the image stones, terror appeared in their eyes, which then turned into pleasant surprise.

"The yellow springs diagram! I can't believe the yellow springs diagram appeared here. No wonder the Yin Qi is so heavy."

Everyone's eyes were filled with shock.

At this moment, they had made up their minds to relay the news immediately... At this time, Yang Lingchen had already left North Cotton Region City far behind.

He used the disguise mask to change his appearance again, then found a mysterious mountain cave and began his secluded Cultivation.

Now that he possessed vast resources, he planned to first Break through his cultivation level to the Profound Venerable Realm Third Layer, and then use the divine origin crystal given to him by Chen Daotian to Break through his cultivation level to the xuanzun realm fourth layer.

Once he Breaks through to the xuanzun realm fourth layer, the champion title of the Ten Great Factions Ranking Battle will be easily within his grasp.

Another two months passed in the blink of an eye.

With the aid of massive resources, Yang Lingchen's cultivation level advanced rapidly, soaring directly from the Xuanzun Realm Second Layer to the Profound Venerable Realm Third Layer.

At this moment, Yang Lingchen was sitting cross-legged in the haotian jade space.

He took out the divine origin crystal, then formed Hand Seals, and immediately streams of pure energy were absorbed from the divine origin crystal into his body.

As this pure energy entered his body, all the Meridians within Yang Lingchen were instantly filled with this spiritual energy, and at the same time, an intense pain spread to every corner of his body.

Yang Lingchen quickly activated the Vast Heaven Art and began refining it.

He knew that if he didn't refine this pure energy, he might explode and die.

As Yang Lingchen continuously refined the energy, the major Meridians in his body expanded once more.

At the same time, his cultivation level climbed steadily, quickly reaching the Peak of the Profound Venerable Realm Third Layer.

At this moment, Yang Lingchen gritted his teeth, concentrating streams of Divine Origin Power, and frantically charged toward the barrier of the xuanzun realm fourth layer.

"Boom... Boom... Boom...!"

"xuanzun realm fourth layer."

At this moment, Yang Lingchen suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp gaze shot out instantly, carrying a fierce aura.

Feeling the powerful strength within his body, Yang Lingchen felt incredibly refreshed.

Before coming out for experience, his cultivation level was only at the Peak of the Quan Zun Realm First Layer. Now, only three months later, his cultivation level had Broken through to the xuanzun realm fourth layer.

Yang Lingchen was quite satisfied with this Cultivation achievement.

Of course, there was another pleasant surprise: Little Black had advanced several Realms. After refining a large amount of blood qi, its level successfully increased to the Heavenly Net Realm, becoming a genuine Heavenly Net Realm Divine Artifact.

In the future, as long as it continues to refine, its level is expected to keep increasing.

After a quick tidying up, Yang Lingchen restored his original appearance and once again set off toward the Eastern Emperor Pavilion.

At the same time, the news of the massacre at North Cotton Region City spread throughout the entire Eastern State.

As soon as the news spread, it instantly caused a huge uproar in the Eastern State.

Although North Cotton Region City's strength was ordinary, it ultimately had the backing of the Four Great Super Factions.

Now that it had been destroyed just like that, the descendants of the Four Great Super Factions naturally wouldn't let the matter rest easily.

At the same time, even more explosive news spread throughout the entire Eastern State.

That was the yellow springs diagram reappearing in the mortal world.

The bloody case in North Cotton Region City was committed by the owner of the yellow springs diagram.

The people who released this news were the descendants under the Four Great Super Factions. After receiving the image stones, they immediately spread the message.

They knew that relying solely on the Four Great Super Factions to find the owner of the yellow springs diagram would be difficult.

Instead of searching quietly like this, it was better to release the news and let the Cultivators of the entire Eastern State help search. This would make it easier to find the owner of the yellow springs diagram.

"Did you hear? North Cotton Region City was massacred, the sight was horrible...!"

"Who doesn't know that? It has spread throughout the entire Eastern State now. I heard it was done by the owner of the yellow springs diagram."

"The yellow springs diagram? That's a legendary Divine Item! Rumor has it that all previous owners of the yellow springs diagram achieved unfathomable power."

"Stop being envious. We can't possibly obtain such a Heaven-Defying Divine Item. However, I heard that the owner of the yellow springs diagram isn't very strong and is quite young."

"I heard that too. The people who escaped North Cotton Region said that the person who saved them was very young and possessed a treasure that could summon Ghosts. That treasure must be the yellow springs diagram."

"That guy is truly ruthless, but I like it. Those beasts in North Cotton Region City should have died long ago."

For a time, news about the yellow springs diagram and North Cotton Region City circulated throughout the entire Eastern State.

Yang Lingchen, completely unaware, continued flying leisurely toward the Eastern Emperor Pavilion.

A month passed unknowingly.

On this day, Yang Lingchen arrived at a city named Tan Tian City.

Tan Tian City was also the largest city closest to the East Emperor City, fully equipped with facilities and extremely prosperous.

After entering Tan Tian City, Yang Lingchen booked a private room at the city's largest Restaurant.

The main reason he stayed here was to gather information. After all, when traveling, one needed to know about external affairs.

After some inquiries, Yang Lingchen's expression became extremely gloomy.

The spread of the yellow springs diagram's news was something he hadn't anticipated.

He had never taken the yellow springs diagram seriously before, but now it seemed he had truly underestimated its value.

However, Yang Lingchen did not regret it, as the benefits this experience brought him were simply too great.

The only thing Yang Lingchen was currently very worried about was Summer First Snow of the Longevity Cult and Snow Heartless of the Yunhai Sect, because these two women had seen his true appearance, and the yellow springs diagram was taken from them.

"It seems I need to find a way to deal with these two women."

Yang Lingchen murmured softly, a fierce glint appearing in his eyes.

If they threatened his safety, he would show no mercy, no matter how beautiful they were.

Yang Lingchen stayed in Tan Tian City for a few days, then once again rushed toward the Eastern Emperor Pavilion.

This time on the road, Yang Lingchen directly put on a mask.

Although some people with high cultivation levels could tell he was wearing a disguise mask, they couldn't see his true appearance.

Traveling and enjoying the scenery along the way, another seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Yang Lingchen arrived at a vast mountain range. This mountain range was called the East Profound Mountain Range, and it was the largest mountain range in the Eastern State, bar none.

Within this mountain range, there were countless ferocious Yao Beasts, as well as an infinite number of Heaven And Earth Treasure.

Therefore, the East Profound Mountain Range also became the most longed-for Holy Land in the minds of Adventurers.

Of course, people without a certain level of strength generally dared not enter this mountain range, because once they entered the East Profound Mountain Range, they might never come out again... To be continued!

Exciting events are coming soon. Everyone, please look forward to it.
