This octopus is actually quite powerful!

Generally speaking, Foundation Establishment cultivators are no match for it, and even Divine Power cultivators cannot withstand its strange sonic divine sense attacks.

But now, the five grandmaster puppets all rushed towards the octopus, and for a moment, this ferocious creature was completely helpless!

It roared furiously, its deafening roar unleashing terrifying sound waves that carried a sharp attack of divine sense, instantly engulfing the five puppet grandmasters. If an ordinary cultivator were caught in this attack, they would surely become dizzy, their minds blank, and they would instantly lose their fighting ability.

However, the five sword masters showed no fear and moved forward without hesitation, surrounding the octopus. Their longswords gleamed with cold light as they slashed down fiercely at the octopus!

After all, they were all puppets, without ears or consciousness.

"Hiss hiss hiss—"

The five sword masters instantly activated the Star Sword Formation. The already fierce sword light shone even brighter under the enhancement of the sword formation, and several dazzling sword shadows intertwined into a net.

In the blink of an eye, the incredibly powerful octopus was cut into eight pieces and fell heavily to the ground, its jet-black blood gushing out and staining a large area of ​​the ground black.

At this moment, Li Nian, who was within Chen Yang's territory, saw this scene and her legs went weak, causing her to collapse to the ground completely, her eyes filled with horror and disbelief.

He never expected that his ghost father, whom even his master dared not easily provoke, would turn into a cold corpse in an instant!

At this moment, Li Nian no longer dared to resist in the slightest, and even the last bit of wishful thinking vanished completely.

He struggled to his feet, turned to Chen Yang, his voice trembling uncontrollably: "Ninth... Ninth Junior Brother! You are truly mighty! Incomparably brave, unstoppable, so amazing! It is truly a blessing for our sect and our sect to have a genius like you!"

Chen Yang glanced at him, his expression indifferent, and asked, "You tricked these people into coming here, forcing them to write earth-attribute cultivation techniques. What exactly are you trying to achieve?"

Li Nian dared not conceal anything, and after a moment's hesitation, he hurriedly said, "Ninth Junior Brother, I was just about to tell you! The reason I tricked these people into writing earth-attribute cultivation techniques was actually to contribute to our sect! I am currently cultivating the Unstable Breath of Earth Technique, which is a true earth-attribute ultimate skill, a treasure that our master obtained by sheer luck after overcoming countless hardships!"

"Unfortunately, this cultivation technique is too incomplete, making it extremely difficult to master. That's why I lured people here, hoping to use everyone's help to complete it."

"This Boundless Soil Technique is extremely miraculous. It can absorb the advantages of other earth-attribute techniques, making it a top-tier technique in the Foundation Establishment realm! Moreover, it allows cultivators to break through bottlenecks. Once they reach the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment realm, they can directly evolve supernatural abilities and enter the realm of supernatural abilities!"

"This cultivation technique is truly amazing, Ninth Junior Brother! Please release me, and let's study it together. This is an incredible opportunity for both of us!"

After listening, Chen Yang understood. He was too lazy to waste any more words with Li Nian. With a flick of his wrist, the Thousand Blade Wind Shadow Sword in his hand flashed with cold light.

"Pfft—"

With a soft click, Li Nian's head was severed, blood spurting out. Chen Yang casually waved his hand, storing Li Nian's body in his storage bag.

Then, he picked up the storage ring that Li Nian had dropped, scanned it with his divine sense, and immediately his face lit up with joy!

In addition to three top-grade earth-attribute pills, the "Houzhu Xuanyu Pill," this storage ring also contained a whopping seven million spirit stones!

"This is too extravagant!" Chen Yang chuckled and accepted all the valuables without hesitation.

Besides these spirit stones and the Later Lord's Profound Jade Pill, more importantly, the ring also contained more than ten native attribute cultivation techniques—all of which Li Nian had tricked the cultivators into coming here, forcing them to write them down themselves.

It seems he had already used this trick to deceive many people before. Hongwu, Yao Qiantie, and others were not the first batch of unlucky victims; they were probably the third batch.

In addition, the ring also contained some captured weapons and magical artifacts, which Li Nian had obtained from other Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. Naturally, none of them were ordinary items.

Chen Yang blinked, secretly chuckling to himself, "I didn't expect this eighth senior brother to be so 'generous,' treating me really well!"

He then turned to look at the octopus carcass not far away and walked over.

The octopus's corpse lay limp on the ground, its dark blood still flowing. Right in the center of its body, five black and gold fragments appeared.

Chen Yang bent down and picked up the fragment. A quick scan with his divine sense revealed the truth: "It's a fragment of an alternate dimension! No wonder this octopus, though only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm, possessed such a powerful divine sense attack; it had such a treasure hidden within its body!"

With a wave of his hand, he stored the five fragments of the Otherworldly Source into his storage ring, and then brought up the panel to check them.

[Remaining Spirit Stones: 1130 million.]

[Otherworldly Source Fragments: 7 pieces.]

"Hehe, this is really a windfall!" Chen Yang couldn't help but smile.

After collecting the octopus's corpse, Chen Yang carefully examined the cave again. The cave was small, and apart from some messy tables and chairs and traces of cultivation, there was nothing else of value.

His gaze fell on the unconscious Yu Xinlian. After a moment of contemplation, he first tidied up the bloodstains and debris in the cave before slowly walking to Yu Xinlian's side and gently pinching her philtrum.

Yu Xinlian's long eyelashes trembled, and her beautiful eyes slowly opened.

She looked at Chen Yang blankly, then seemed to remember something, her expression changed drastically, and she struggled to get up, her eyes filled with vigilance and panic.

"Manager Yu, don't be nervous," Chen Yang reassured him. "My eighth senior brother, Li Nian, has already left."

Upon hearing the words "gone," Yu Xinlian's face not only failed to improve but turned even paler. She subconsciously glanced down at her clothes, and seeing that they were still relatively tidy, she breathed a slight sigh of relief, but her eyes remained wary.

Chen Yang was about to say a few words of explanation.

Yu Xinlian suddenly turned around, her back to him, and quickly unfastened her long dress and armor, carefully examining herself as if to confirm something.

Seeing her actions, Chen Yang was speechless for a moment, then coughed lightly and said, "Manager Yu, your behavior is too lewd. I'm right here!"

Yu Xinlian paused, quickly fastened her clothes, turned around, first giving Chen Yang a wary look, then scanning her surroundings, before muttering softly, "Your senior brother... really left?"

"He's really gone." Chen Yang nodded, his tone certain.

Yu Xinlian was still somewhat incredulous, frowning as she asked, "Then why am I alright? Was it because I pressured him too much, and he got impatient and gave up?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang was both amused and exasperated, looking at her and saying, "Shopkeeper Yu, aren't you being a little too narcissistic?"

"What do you know!" Yu Xinlian glared at him.

Suddenly, Yu Xinlian seemed to realize something. She quickly squatted down and spat on the ground a few times, making a series of "pui pui pui" sounds.

Seeing her actions, Chen Yang couldn't help but laugh and teased, "I didn't expect Manager Yu to know so much."

Yu Xinlian touched the corner of her mouth, wiping away the saliva, her doubts deepening.

She scoffed, her tone tinged with disdain: "I reckon your senior brother is a complete waste, he's got no skills! Fine, at least you had the heart to not abandon me and run away, and you didn't do anything strange to me while I was unconscious."

"How could that be?" Chen Yang quickly said, "You risked everything to save me before, and I, Chen Yang, am not the kind of person who forgets kindness."

Yu Xinlian smiled gently, finally letting out a sigh of relief, and said to Chen Yang, "Just remember the kindness I've shown you."

"Manager Yu, let's..." Chen Yang was about to say that he was leaving.

Yu Xinlian glared at him and interrupted, "Don't call me Manager Yu, and don't call me Boss Yu, call me Sister Yu."

"Okay, okay, Sister Yu." Chen Yang replied helplessly, "Let's go back quickly. This place is gloomy, and there's so much black blood on the ground. It's really creepy."

Yu Xinlian glanced around the cave, a hint of apprehension on her face. She quickly nodded, "Yes, let's go back as soon as possible, lest your senior brother suddenly change his mind and come back to cause trouble for us."

With a flick of his wrist, Chen Yang instantly conjured the chillingly sharp Thousand Blade Wind Shadow Sword in his palm. He grabbed Yu Xinlian's wrist, leaped up, and the two of them landed steadily on the sword.

"Hold on tight!" Chen Yang shouted, channeling his spiritual energy into the sword. The flying sword instantly transformed into a streak of light, soaring into the sky and heading towards Tianhai City.
