Chapter 1679: Hoarding Rewards

Chapter 1679: Hoarding Rewards Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In an instant, everyone was in an uproar, and everyone in the summer region rushed toward the palace.

As for Ye Chen, he had already pushed open the door of the Crimson Flame Palace and walked inside.

The entire palace was divided into seven levels. Ye Chen had only just reached the first level.

Ye Chen looked around and realized that there was nothing around. The first level was a completely empty hall. There was not even an entrance to the second level.

However, Ye Chen believed that Demon Saint would never leave behind an empty hall.

While Ye Chen was lost in his thoughts, the originally bright hall suddenly turned dark. At this moment, a mechanical voice sounded.

“The challenger is a first-level Primordial Chaos realm cultivator. He can choose between the easy, hard, or hell modes.”

Ye Chen smiled when he heard the mechanical voice. It seemed that this worked somewhat like a game.

At this moment, the mechanical voice was explaining the rules of the game.

When the mechanical voice finished speaking, Ye Chen almost laughed out loud. He was currently a first-level Primordial Chaos realm cultivator, but hell mode only increased the difficulty to the level of a sixth-level Primordial Chaos realm cultivator.

In other words, Ye Chen could easily sweep through this level.

“I choose Hell Mode!”

As soon as Ye Chen finished speaking, five sixth-level Primordial Chaos realm demonic beasts appeared in front of him, which was nowhere near enough to threaten him.

Ye Chen took out his sword and attacked. Before the five demonic beasts could react, their heads were chopped off and they fell to the ground.

At this moment, five Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts floated in the air, which Ye Chen took without hesitation.

Now that the passage to the second level had opened, Ye Chen walked up without hesitation.

Arriving at the second level, Ye Chen found that it was exactly as he had expected.

There was nothing here, but soon a mechanical voice rang out.

Ye Chen immediately chose Hell Mode and killed all of the demonic beasts with a single strike, obtaining a Dao Integration-grade artifact.

Ye Chen quickly cleared the levels and soon arrived at the fifth level.

After reaching the fifth level, even Ye Chen did not dare to choose hell mode again immediately.

When he arrived at the fifth level, Ye Chen realized that even easy mode required him to face a hundred peak-level Primordial Chaos-grade demonic beasts.

If Ye Chen chose hell mode, he would probably encounter a hundred middle-stage Dao Integration realm demonic beasts.

Earlier, he had not only obtained Primordial Chaos-grade and Dao Integration-grade artifacts, but also a spacetime artifact.

If he could pass the fifth level, he would probably be able to obtain two more spacetime artifacts, which would come in very handy to him.

Ye Chen remained alone on the fifth level. However, there were already countless Primordial Chaos and Dao Integration realm cultivators gathered outside the Crimson Flame Palace.

There were also two first-level Creation realm experts. They looked at the Crimson Flame Qilin with greed in their eyes.

The Crimson Flame Qilin was basically a walking treasure trove. Every part of its body was a treasure.

As such, they gave into temptation and used their secret techniques to forcefully increase their cultivation levels and joined forces to attack the Crimson Flame Qilin.

After the battle, both sides suffered injuries. The two Creation realm experts were heavily injured while the aura of the Crimson Flame Qilin gradually weakened.

Although the Crimson Flame Qilin was powerful, it was a pity that two fists were no match for four hands.

During the battle, many of the other cultivators had been caught in the crossfire and perished. However, there were some lucky ones who managed to sneak into the palace during the battle.

Although the Crimson Flame Qilin was a walking treasure trove, they also knew that they were not powerful enough to partake in the battle and share the spoils.

They entered the first level of the palace and encountered the same thing as Ye Chen. Unfortunately, they did not find any treasures even though they had exhausted themselves to rush inside.

This was because Ye Chen had chosen hell mode and all the rewards had been given to Ye Chen. Perhaps even Demon Saint had not expected a monster like Ye Chen to appear.

“Damn it! Which b*stard took all the treasures?”

“He must be on the other floors. Everyone, find him and kill him!”

These cultivators who were fishing in troubled waters were so angry that their anger clouded their hearts. After all, they had worked themselves to death to clear the level but obtained nothing.

Ye Chen struggled to stand up on the sixth level. At this moment, he was covered in wounds and held a spacetime artifact in his hand.

He stood alone on the sixth floor and waited for a long time, but there was no mechanical voice.

He guessed that there would be no more rules for clearing the sixth floor. Ye Chen looked around and realized that there was nothing around him, like the previous hall. There were only two more doors.

Above these two doors were written the words ‘life’ and ‘death’.

Ye Chen took a glance and looked away. He found a remote place to recover from his injuries.

Right now, the most important thing for him was to recover. He would deal with these doors after that.

While Ye Chen was recuperating, some people had already passed the fourth level and were heading toward the fifth level.

“Phew!”

At this moment, a Dao Integration realm expert arrived at the sixth level. He was severely injured and had barely managed to clear the fifth level.

“Ye Chen? Why are you here?”

At this moment, the Dao Integration realm expert spotted Ye Chen.

Ye Chen heard the voice and slowly opened his eyes.

“What’s wrong? Can’t I be here?”

Ye Chen’s lips curled into a cold smile. He had almost recovered.

The cultivator in front of him was only a middle-stage Dao Integration realm expert. If this expert was at his peak, Ye Chen might have chosen to avoid him, but he was injured. There was no reason to be afraid.

“Did you take all the rewards from the previous level?”

This middle-stage Dao Integration realm expert was also a member of the Fierce Demon Palace. After defeating the previous levels, he was frustrated that he had not obtained any rewards.

“So what if I did? Oh, since you were able to clear the level, you must have some pretty good treasures, huh…”

As soon as Ye Chen finished speaking, he clenched his sword, his eyes filled with killing intent.

“Little b*stard, do you think you are capable of killing me?”

The expert sneered. Although he was injured, he was still a middle-stage Dao Integration realm expert.

“Spacetime Sword Technique!”

Ye Chen did not give him a chance to say anything else. The sword vibrated intensely in his hand, and the power of spacetime laws erupted from within his body.
