Chapter 727 Exchange
Nan Zhu watched Chen Yang and Zhou Zeyao jump down, his heart in his throat.
Let alone Grandmasters, even Nan Zhu himself felt a little apprehensive looking at such a deep well.
Chen Yang and Zhou Zeyao plummeted with extreme speed. The two first used their mental power to probe the location of the barrier. Although the well was wide, the enclosed space and the dark environment made both of them very uncomfortable.
Just then, a mysterious voice sounded from Chen Yang: "This is a good spot, just two or three meters below our feet!"
Zhou Zeyao shivered and retreated, looking at Chen Yang strangely: "Did you hear a voice?"
Chen Yang gave a faint smile: "Of course I heard it. Don't worry, it's one of us!"
Immediately, the shadow of Cha Shan emerged from Chen Yang. Cha Shan had been invisible to everyone since yesterday, actually hiding inside Chen Yang.
This was Zhou Zeyao's first time seeing Cha Shan. However, he immediately sensed that something was off about Cha Shan.
"Death Qi!"
Cha Shan had deliberately collected all the surrounding death qi, so no one had detected its presence when they arrived.
Now that Cha Shan had emerged, the death qi emanating from him immediately startled Zhou Zeyao.
Seeing Zhou Zeyao so nervous, Chen Yang quickly explained, "Didn't you ask me earlier how I found this palace complex? Actually, he's the one who told me."
Chen Yang briefly explained Cha Shan's situation to Zhou Zeyao.
Zhou Zeyao could only look at Chen Yang with a strange expression and mutter, "How can you encounter everything?"
In Zhou Zeyao's heart, a suspicion towards Chen Yang was beginning to form.
There was something in Zhou Zeyao's hidden memories that matched Chen Yang's situation perfectly.
Some people with special destinies not only possessed strong martial arts talent but also unparalleled luck.
Such people were highly sought after by all the top Grandmasters.
Chen Yang's current performance perfectly matched this description!
Cha Shan's eyes were fixed on Zhou Zeyao. Cha Shan felt that Zhou Zeyao, standing before him, was no ordinary person either.
However, before he could ask, Chen Yang immediately said, "How do we get in now? Should we break through with internal energy directly?"
"I'll go in and take a look first," Cha Shan said and then floated into the ground.
After Cha Shan left, Zhou Zeyao finally spoke, "Don't be fooled by this guy. No matter what, he's not human!"
Chen Yang shrugged indifferently. He had not only interacted with Cha Shan but had also encountered the Bronze Tree even earlier, not to mention Zhou Zeyao in front of him…
Zhou Zeyao noticed the strange look in Chen Yang's eyes and immediately glared, "Why are you looking at me like that!"
"I'm a genuine human!"
Chen Yang coughed awkwardly and then heard Cha Shan's voice, "You two break through with internal energy. I'll help you from inside with death qi."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang and Zhou Zeyao immediately acted.
The vigorous internal energy in both their bodies erupted simultaneously. Zhu Que and the others guarding the entrance, sensing this immense power, assumed combat stances.
However, upon sensing the familiar aura, Zhu Que immediately said, "The Celestial Venerable has begun to act. Increase vigilance!"
Chen Yang below was using the two streams of internal energy within him to impact the barrier. To Chen Yang's surprise, the barrier, which they had imagined to be extremely strong, was like paper under their breakthrough, being pierced through directly!
Chen Yang looked at Zhou Zeyao in shock, "Is this the sect barrier you mentioned? So simple?"
Zhou Zeyao's face flushed with embarrassment. He had not expected the barrier to be broken so easily by the two of them.
"It shouldn't be. I remember this thing being very difficult to break?"
Chen Yang rolled his eyes helplessly, "Alright, let's not think about that for now. Let's hurry inside and take a look!"
The depth of two to three meters was also very easy for the two of them to blast open.
As the shattered rocks slowly descended, their bodies also began to fall.
After feeling a ripple, Chen Yang and Zhou Zeyao's vision opened to a massive ring-shaped mountain range.
On the peaks of the mountain range stood countless tall buildings, and in the flat area in the middle of the range were layer upon layer of palaces!
Just as Cha Shan had said, it was indeed spectacular.
The sky above, as dark as ink, was also unforgettable!
Seeing the two enter, Cha Shan laughed, "The energy within the barrier, I believe, is the aggregated energy of life qi and death qi. The life qi was absorbed by He Fengyun, and the death qi was absorbed by me. I didn't expect this barrier to be as flimsy as paper."
Zhou Zeyao said with a wry smile, "Who would have thought that such a vast sect would have no decent defenses."
"I originally thought it was the operation of some formation, but now it seems it was just relying on direct energy transmission..."
After the three landed, Chen Yang looked around at the desolate scene and couldn't help but sigh, "For a sect, the strongest defense is actually its warriors. Otherwise, relying solely on a barrier to stop others is very unrealistic!"
"Only when the warriors within the sect become powerful can they truly protect their sect."
Chen Yang looked around and then asked Zhou Zeyao, "Do you have any memories of this place? After all, it's not very far from your Tree Tomb!"
Zhou Zeyao did not answer the question but winked at Chen Yang.
Chen Yang immediately understood. This guy definitely had some memories but was unwilling to share them.
"I'm the one who brought you here. How about we make a deal?"
Faced with Chen Yang's persistent questioning, Zhou Zeyao could only give a bitter smile, "How can you guess everything? But you're right, in my memories from my previous life, there are indeed recollections of this place.
"However, so much time has passed, my memories have long since turned into countless fragments. I can only piece them together bit by bit. As for what this place is called, I've completely forgotten. But I do remember that it seemed to be a place for refining elixirs."
"Look at the terrain here, it's 'Bao Yi Shou Zhong'."
Upon Zhou Zeyao's hint, the shape of the entire terrain immediately appeared in Chen Yang's mind.
While Chen Yang might not know as much as Zhou Zeyao about other matters, his skills in alchemy were more than enough to crush him.
"Bao Yi Shou Zhong is a term from Daodejing. If we talk about its connection to alchemy..."
