Ye Chen nodded and his gaze turned serious. It seemed that the most important thing now was not to collect the Purple Jade Tokens of the other participants, but to completely destroy this strange cultivator who could devour others.

Otherwise, if this person continued to devour participants like this, and reached the Star Aperture realm, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Even Ye Chen was not confident that he could kill him. If things really turned out like this, then all of the participants in the competition would face a crisis.

“Where did you fight that person?” Ye Chen asked Long Xuan.

“Ye Chen, are you going to deal with him?” Long Xuan asked with a frown. “I know that you’re extremely strong, but that guy is too strange. Moreover, he’s already reached the peak of the Creation realm. Even for you, I’m afraid that it’ll be an extremely dangerous battle!”

“I don’t have a choice,” Ye Chen said, “Besides, that person might know me.”

“Brother Ye knows that guy?” Long Xuan asked in surprise.

Ye Chen shook his head. “I can’t be sure until I see him, but I’m very familiar with his aura.”

“I still have a chance of winning if I fight him now, but if I wait until he reaches the Star Aperture realm…”

Ye Chen did not continue but he and Long Xuan knew that once that fellow reached the Star Aperture realm, no one in this secret realm would be able to destroy him.

“Damn it!”

Long Xuan punched a large tree beside him and said to Ye Chen, “The place where I fought with him was in the north-west direction of this forest, about 30,000 miles away near a stone mountain. That person was dressed in black robes and his aura was extremely strange, similar to a demonic cultivator. If you discover him, you should be able to recognize him immediately.”

Ye Chen nodded and helped Long Xuan up. “I know a place suitable for recovery. I’ll bring you there first. You can recuperate there and try to recover your strength as soon as possible.”

As he spoke, a golden light burst forth from his body and brought Long Xuan back to the cave where he had been recuperating earlier.

Long Xuan knew that with his current strength, even if he followed Ye Chen, he would only be a burden to Ye Chen, so he could only agree helplessly.

After settling Long Xuan down, Ye Chen was about to fly in the direction Long Xuan had mentioned. However, at that moment, a dazzling black light soared into the sky and pierced through the clouds.

In the sky, something seemed to be responding to the call of the black light and was slowly being unsealed.

Ye Chen was surprised and looked in the direction of the pillar of black light. It was coming from a tall mountain peak in the distance.

At this moment, Long Xuan had also walked out of the cave. Looking at the pillar of black light, he exclaimed in shock. “What is that?”

Ye Chen stared at the black light and muttered to himself, “The black light seemed to be emitting a familiar aura…”

Suddenly, Ye Chen had a flash of insight. The aura in the black light was very similar to the aura he sensed in Mo Lingzi’s lair that Zheng Yuan had brought him to.

He looked in the direction of the mountain peak, which was the same as the direction Ji Xuan and Tian Ling had left in.

From the black light, Ye Chen could vaguely sense that something was about to descend into this secret realm.

Thinking this, he muttered, “Could it be… Did Ji Xuan discover something in Mo Lingzi’s lair? Is that what he’s summoning?”

Ye Chen looked at the box in the Samsara Graveyard.

The box was shaking violently.

It seemed that Mo Lingzi had not only left this box behind, but also left behind something else.

Ye Chen wanted to ask the Demonic Eye about the box, but discovered that the Demonic Eye had fallen asleep again.

After all, in the cave, the Demonic Eye had taken control of his body, which had exhausted more of its power.

Right now, he could only rely on himself.

At this moment, Long Xuan discovered the aura of a treasure within the black light. It was as if some secret treasure was about to be released and descend into this secret realm.

“Ye Chen, this black light will definitely attract many participants of the Rising Dragon Competition.” His eyes lit up and he said to Ye Chen, “In other words…”

Ye Chen nodded. “In other words, that place will be the best hunting ground for the black-robed cultivator. Therefore, it’s very likely that he’s heading towards the location of the black light.”

“If we can join forces with the experts in this secret realm to deal with that black-robed cultivator, even if he has that strange devouring ability, I believe we can take him down,” Long Xuan said.

Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed. “I think I know the person who activated the black light. He’s very strong. If those two join forces with me, we’ll have a good chance of winning.”

Ji Xuan and Tian Ling were the top geniuses of first-rate forces.

At the thought of this, golden light shone from his body. He turned to Long Xuan and said, “There’s no time to lose. I’ll rush to the peak at full speed. You can recuperate in the cave!”

After saying that, he turned into a bolt of lightning and flew toward the black light.

Just as Ye Chen was rushing to the peak at full speed, he caught a glimpse of an exquisite flying ship with a strange design and an extremely ancient aura from the corner of his eye.

The flying boat was also traveling at an extremely fast speed toward that peak.

Ye Chen’s eyes flashed with surprise. The flying ship’s aura was extremely powerful. It appeared to be a peak-grade spacetime artifact and was extremely valuable!

Divine artifacts were extremely valuable even among first-rate forces. Almost all of them were in the hands of the sect masters or grand elders.

Every single one of them could be considered the sect’s guardian treasure.

Although a peak-grade spacetime artifact was not a true divine artifact, it was still extremely valuable. Therefore, anyone who had one was definitely not an ordinary person!

Incidentally, Ye Chen was still using the Blood Demon Sword, which was a spacetime artifact, in battle.

The Blood Demon Sword’s true grade was very high, but as time passed, it naturally dropped a few grades.

Only by constantly absorbing fresh blood and demonic energy could he increase its grade.

Just as Ye Chen’s gaze swept over the flying boat, the cultivator controlling the flying boat seemed to have noticed his presence. The flying ship trembled and flew in Ye Chen’s direction.

Ye Chen frowned slightly, but he still stopped where he was.

Soon, the flying ship arrived in front of Ye Chen. At the bow of the boat stood a tall, muscular bald man.

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes. This person was the contestant from the Xing Clan of the Ten Desolates whom he had met in the Immortal Guiding Forest!

When the man saw Ye Chen, his face lit up with joy. He smiled at Ye Chen and said, “It really is you! I’m Xing Zitang, and I’m very interested in your strength. How about sparring with me?”
