Chapter 106: Chapter 96: Ancient Furnace of Creation

"Heavenly Saint Di Kong's Innate Essence Map!"

Ye Chen's first glance was drawn to the Myriad Treasures Stele's foremost treasure!

"I must exchange it, no doubt about it!"

Without even a moment's hesitation, Ye Chen decided to exchange for this precious item.

This treasure, harboring the eighteen powerful ambiances awakened by Heavenly Saint Di Kong during his Spirit Sea Realm stage, was tremendously beneficial for Ye Chen's comprehension of ambiances and cultivation of Sword Intents; naturally, he would not let such an opportunity slip away.

Spending ten million Golden Light Beads to exchange for this item was absolutely worth it!

"Artifact Spirit, the first item I am exchanging for is this, the premier treasure of the Myriad Treasures Stele—Heavenly Saint Di Kong's Innate Essence Map!"

Ye Chen said to the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact.

"After more than a thousand years, someone from your three clans is finally able to exchange for this first treasure!" With a sigh of emotion, the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact smiled and nodded.

Then, amid the swirling winds and clouds, an ancient scroll that was rolled up began to descend in front of Ye Chen.

After the scroll landed in front of Ye Chen, it slowly unfurled towards him.

Next, a blinding light completely enveloped Ye Chen.

Amid the blinding glow, Ye Chen saw a miraculous golden monkey manifesting in the void, continuously practicing various moves, while voices conveying the methods of the mind resounded from it.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Merely listening to a few of these mental method voices and observing a few moves, Ye Chen's mind felt as though it was being bombarded by countless ambiance thoughts, plunging it instantly into a sensation akin to an upheaval of the heavens and the earth.

Hum!

At that moment, the scroll slowly rolled up again, ultimately sealing shut and flying into Ye Chen's hands.

It was only upon grasping the ancient scroll that Ye Chen revived from the bombardment of the numerous ambiance thoughts. Noticing the youths around him did not exhibit the shocked expressions like his, Ye Chen instantly understood that the scroll had just demonstrated its powerful ambiances to him, while the others had not sensed them.

"The first treasure!"

"Indeed, it's the first treasure!"

"The strength of the ambiance contained within surpasses even the Wind-Thunder Ambience that Qian Jizi, the senior from Thousand Lotus Cave Abode, demonstrated! Truly worthy of being the secret map containing eighteen powerful ambiances!"

Just a fleeting glimpse was enough for Ye Chen to recognize the scroll's value in his hands!

Ye Chen took a deep breath, clenching the scroll tightly, and then turned his gaze back to the Myriad Treasures Stele.

Having acquired the first treasure and spent ten million Golden Light Beads, he still had over fifteen million Golden Light Beads left, enough to exchange for many more treasures.

Creation Yuan Pill!

Ye Chen's gaze shifted to the second treasure of the Myriad Treasures Stele.

"The Creation Yuan Pill can help those in the True Qi Realm smoothly advance into the Spirit Sea, which I will need for my future entry into the Spirit Sea, so I must exchange for one!

And for those in the later stages of the Spirit Sea Realm aiming to break through to the Rotating Pill Realm, possessing this pill will increase their chances by seventy percent, making it beneficial for those in the Spirit Sea Realm as well!"

At this moment, Ye Chen thought of Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao was currently at the early stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, and when she aimed to break through to the Rotating Pill Realm in the future, the Creation Yuan Pill would be of great help to her, so Ye Chen naturally intended to exchange one for her as well.

"It's a pity that the Creation Yuan Pill must be taken by those in the True Qi Realm before they reach the age of thirty, otherwise, I would exchange one for each of the three clan patriarchs as well. It could help them all step into the Spirit Sea Realm!"

The more Ye Chen thought about it, the more he realized the preciousness of the Creation Yuan Pill.

Unfortunately, the three old clan leaders of the three major families were all over sixty years old and had exceeded the age limit for using the Creation Yuan Pill.

"This pill is of great use; both Jiang Yao and I can use it, and maybe others will need it in the future. The more I can exchange, the better!"

With this in mind, Ye Chen turned to the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact and asked, "Honorable Artifact Spirit, how many Creation Yuan Pills can I exchange for?"

The exchange for each Creation Yuan Pill required one million Golden Light Beads, and Ye Chen still had plenty of them. If there were no restrictions, he indeed could exchange for many pills.

"The top ten among you, who have received the Ancestral Ground Secret Map, will be teleported to their respective testing grounds depicted in the map once you enter the Teleportation Array."

"Those who did not obtain the Ancestral Ground Secret Map will be randomly teleported to one of the remaining eight testing grounds after entering the Teleportation Array."

"Now, enter the Teleportation Array and head to your respective testing grounds!"

Upon the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact's instructions, all the young warriors headed towards the Teleportation Array.

"Let's go."

"Towards the middle region of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm!"

Some young warriors took the lead and walked into the Teleportation Array, after which they disappeared in a flash of light.

"Ye Chen, we must all strive hard in the trials of the Ancestral Land's middle region!" said Bai Xiaodie, approaching Ye Chen.

Ye Chen smiled and nodded at Bai Xiaodie.

Finally, Ye Chen, Bai Xiaodie, and all the others successively entered the Teleportation Array.

With a flash of light, they arrived at their second testing ground!

"Boom!"

Within the flash of light, a young figure emerged from a Teleportation Array circle located in the deepest and most spacious area of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm's middle region.

This figure was Ye Chen, who had been teleported from the outer to the middle region of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm.

"This place... it is indeed the realm I saw when I first obtained the Ancestral Ground Secret Map!"

Ye Chen exited the Teleportation Array and looked around the testing ground he had entered.

Upon seeing the eighteen giant golden monkey statues, each towering thirty meters high in the center of the great valley, Ye Chen couldn't help but exclaim aloud.

The valley's appearance precisely matched the scene depicted in the secret map he had envisioned when he initially acquired the Ancestral Ground Secret Map!

At this time, not only had Ye Chen entered the realm indicated by his Ancestral Ground Secret Map,

Bai Xiaodie had also arrived at a valley with nine golden monkey statues, Qian Ming was teleported beneath a giant golden waterfall...

Thirty young warriors were scattered at various locations within the middle region of the secret realm!

As all the young warriors were observing their surroundings, huge ancient furnaces started to rise within each realm.

The vast furnaces were over ten meters high and seven to eight meters wide, larger than many houses!

The young warriors looked minuscule standing beneath the furnaces.

These furnaces could fit hundreds of such young warriors inside!

"Such a huge furnace!"

"Could this... have something to do with the middle region's trial of the Ancestral Land Secret Realm?"

The young warriors were guessing when the voice of the Spirit of the Sacred Artifact reached everyone's ears: "Your second trial will take place within this 'Ancient Furnace of Creation'!"

Ancient Furnace of Creation?

As Ye Chen looked at the suddenly risen giant ancient furnace, endless beams of gold light shot out from the eyes of the eighteen golden monkey statues that stood in the valley of the same eighteen monkey statues where he was located.

All of this limitless golden light eventually concentrated into the giant ancient furnace that had just appeared.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Ye Chen could clearly hear sounds of water waves within the furnace.

"Could this be..."

As Ye Chen sent forth his divine consciousness into the furnace, he was immediately aware of golden Spiritual Liquid slowly materializing within. This occurred after the endless gold light shot from the eighteen golden monkey statues entered the ancient furnace.

In the end, the ancient furnace filled up with the golden Spiritual Liquid and the light shooting from the golden monkey statues ceased; their eyes once again returned to a state of calm.
