Swordholder

Zhong Yue chuckled, and the other human prodigies' eyes widened suddenly. They then breathed heavily and quickly scattered, searching for the remaining spiritual plants and fruits.

Because Chen Yuan and his two companions had already picked all the spiritual plants and fruits here.

They were completely wiped out.

hum!

Chen Yuan ate too many spiritual fruits, causing the spiritual energy within his body to boil.

His hair stood on end, glistening with a crystalline sheen.

"Not enough! Still not enough!"

Chen Yuan murmured to himself, his gaze fixed intently on the deeper part of the room.

The spiritual plants and fruits here contain such immense spiritual power, so what about the central area?

Could it be that his cultivation path, as a human, can also reach the Purple Mansion realm?

Zhong Yue's eyelids twitched as he looked at the madness in Chen Yuan's eyes.

"Chen Yuan, calm down, don't act impulsively!"

Zhong Yue said urgently.

Chen Yuan remained unmoved, took a deep breath, and looked at Zhong Yue, "You guys wait here, I'll go in and take a look."

"Let's go too!"

Li Wei hurriedly said.

"Yes, I want to go too. The spiritual fruits here are so delicious, wouldn't the ones inside be even better?"

Nuomi also spoke up, her eyes shining even brighter, looking every bit the little foodie.

"Let's go!"

Chen Yuan nodded and went in first, followed closely by Li Wei and Nuomi.

Zhong Yue reached out his hand, trying to stop him, but it was too late.

"Holy crap, these three are insane."

Zhong Yue cursed under his breath.

"Brother Zhong, what about us?"

A young man in gray asked.

The others looked at each other in bewilderment.

"We'll just search this area; it's too damn dangerous inside."

Zhong Yue spoke helplessly.

He had extensive knowledge and experience, so he was well aware of the terrifying nature of the central area of ​​the Land of Destiny.

Everyone knew Zhong Yue was extraordinary, and they all nodded in agreement.

They didn't have Chen Yuan's strength, so they didn't dare to take the risk.

……

Meanwhile, Chen Yuan and his two companions continued deeper into the area.

Soon, they arrived at a barrier.

The barrier was transparent, with faint golden runes flowing across its surface, isolating it from the aura of heaven and earth.

It looks like a bubble light curtain, enveloping the entire central area.

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes, and with a light tap of his finger, he passed through the barrier and entered without any hindrance.

"Interesting, it's actually the Five Elements Refreshing Formation!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out, startling Chen Yuan and Li Wei, who hurriedly looked at Nuomi.

"I'm not the one speaking."

Nuomi shook her head and pointed to the human skin umbrella he was holding, "It's this!"

Chen Yuan looked at the human skin umbrella and immediately felt a chill run down his spine, his hair standing on end. "Who are you?"

Chen Yuan drew his Blood Bone Sword and pointed it at the human skin umbrella.

Li Wei did the same, holding the golden giant sword against the surface of the human skin umbrella.

"Hmph, are you two idiots?"

The human-skin umbrella scoffed, and a woman's voice rang out, "Both of your swords came with me, and you're using them against me?"

Chen Yuan and Li Wei exchanged a glance, both stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and reluctantly sheathed their swords.

"Who exactly are you, senior? And why were you willing to follow the three of us back then?"

Chen Yuan looked puzzled, glancing at the human skin umbrella and then at the blood bone sword in his hand.

The human-skin umbrella remained silent, as if deep in thought. After a moment, it slowly spoke, "Fate has brought us together!"

Chen Yuan was speechless!

They don't believe the story about the human skin umbrella.

"Enough with the nonsense, I won't harm you."

"Human Skin Umbrella," he said calmly.

Chen Yuan and Li Wei exchanged a glance and could only nod.

If the human skin umbrella, the blood bone sword, and the golden greatsword wanted to harm the three of them, they would have done so long ago. They wouldn't have followed them all the way here, killing them until now.

However, I also kept a watchful eye on things.

Who knows, these three evil creatures might cause trouble in the future.

"Senior, what exactly is the Five Elements Refreshing Array?"

Chen Yuan collected his thoughts, his gaze falling on the great formation before him, and asked curiously.

The human skin umbrella was stunned, clearly not expecting Chen Yuan to so quickly put away his hostility and even take the initiative to ask her questions, as if they were very familiar with each other.

However, she still replied, "The spiritual energy of heaven and earth inherently contains the five elements. This great formation isolates the polluted spiritual energy in heaven and earth, or purifies it and transforms it into pure spiritual energy of the five elements."

"Of course, it's just a large array for purifying spiritual energy; it won't prevent you from entering or leaving."

Chen Yuan and Li Wei suddenly realized.

That's it!

Chen Yuan then focused his gaze on the central area.

Inside the barrier, towering trees stood as far as the eye could see.

Above the barrier, dark clouds swirled and rolled endlessly, with lightning flashing within them. Every now and then, a deafening roar of thunder would erupt, and bolts of lightning would even strike down towards the barrier.

However, all of these lightning bolts were absorbed by the barrier, making it even stronger and more stable.

Between the sky and dark clouds of the barrier, countless birds soared and circled.

To the astonishment of Chen Yuan and his companions, the birds were actually catching the lightning bolts that were striking down.

The lightning struck them, causing their bodies to be enveloped in blinding light, and their aura and pressure became incredibly terrifying.

"That's a Thunderbird, which feeds on lightning."

A voice came from the human skin umbrella, filled with surprise, "I didn't expect there to be a Thunder Spirit Bird here, it's truly rare."

Chen Yuan was startled and looked up at the purple Thunder Spirit Birds.

They look somewhat like vultures, but their feathers are purple and shimmer with streaks of lightning.

"The Purple Mansion Realm!"

Chen Yuan exclaimed in shock.

No wonder Bai Ze said it was dangerous here.

In the sky was a Thunder Spirit Bird at the Purple Mansion Realm.

There are probably incredibly terrifying ferocious beasts on the ground, the kind that have been corrupted by demons, extremely violent and cruel!

"roar……"

Just as I was thinking this, a series of earth-shattering roars came from inside the barrier.

The roar sent shivers down their spines.

"hiss!"

Li Wei gasped and looked at Chen Yuan, whispering, "Yuan, it's too dangerous. Let's leave."

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes, weighing the options in his mind.

"Heh, you're already thinking of backing down because of this little bit of danger? How will you ever be able to contend with the Great Dao in the future?"

A woman's mocking voice came from inside the human skin umbrella, ridiculing Chen Yuan and his companions for their cowardice.

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes.

It doesn't seem like they were deliberately sent to their deaths by this human skin umbrella.

Then there is only one possibility.

"Senior, can you guarantee our safety?"

Chen Yuan asked.

"Heh, I can't guarantee that. If you die, you die. What does it have to do with me?"

The human-skin umbrella laughed, seemingly unconcerned.

"Fairy Sister, you won't let us die, right?"

Nuomi hugged the human skin umbrella and said coquettishly.

A human skin umbrella, "..."

"Hehe, the fairy sister is the best."

Nuomi happily remarked.

Chen Yuan and Li Wei were completely bewildered. What had this human skin umbrella said this time?

Nuomi looked at Chen Yuan and said, "The fairy sister said that there is a strange medicine inside that can help me cultivate to the Purple Mansion stage."

"And that strange pill was really, really delicious."

When it came to food, Nuomi licked her lips, her eyes shining.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan did not hesitate at all.

Even if it's dangerous inside, he's determined to try.

If glutinous rice can achieve the Purple Mansion, then its combat power will definitely undergo earth-shattering changes.

So they raised the human skin umbrella to cover the three people's heads, concealed their presence, and slipped inside.
