Chapter 2487: Heaven-Defying Luck!
Peerless Medicine God · 第2487章 逆天之运！
Within the gray mist, many winding paths snaked upward.
Hundreds of Celestial Being experts had all entered the Heavenly Mountain.
Heavenly Mystery Celestial Emperor was clearly no stranger to this place. He said, “These winding paths all lead to a million li above. Each path will encounter various different opportunities. But the higher you go, these paths will randomly merge, and ultimately lead to nine exits. At that time, you will encounter other martial artists. Slaughter will also begin at that moment!”
The breathing of many experts also became rapid.
Setting foot on this path, they were opponents!
To become a Dao Ancestor, the final slaughter would be extremely brutal.
The path to Dao Ancestor has no friends.
Everything is for obtaining the Rule Crystal.
“Now, each of you choose a path and set off!” said Heavenly Mystery Celestial Emperor.
As soon as the words fell, six to seven hundred experts swiftly dashed away.
Ye Yuan looked at Heavenly Mystery Celestial Emperor, Saint Ancestor High Priest, as well as Pang Zhen, Wan Zhen, and others, and said, “Are you coming with me, or going your own way?”
The cycle of heaven's way, along this path there would be various opportunities, like the Tears of Life.
The Tears of Life had not appeared before, but under the cycle of heaven's way, they would definitely appear.
Therefore, Ye Yuan came to the Heavenly Mountain.
“Milord, we want to try on our own!” Pang Zhen and Wan Zhen said in unison.
Ye Yuan smiled and nodded, “Go ahead!”
Overjoyed, the two also each chose a small path.
As for Heavenly Mystery Celestial Emperor and Saint Ancestor High Priest, being more powerful, they naturally wanted to personally brave the Heavenly Mountain.
For them, following Ye Yuan would naturally protect them.
But Ye Yuan could not protect them forever.
Some things, they had to face on their own.
Moreover, following Ye Yuan would mean they could not encounter their own opportunities.
After everyone left, Ye Yuan, with the Treasure Pig, also set foot on a winding path.
Ye Yuan walked very carefully, observing meticulously, unwilling to miss any detail.
Ye Yuan had never seen the Tears of Life, nor had anyone around him.
Only the Nine Dao Ancestors had seen the Tears of Life.
So Ye Yuan would rather go slow than miss them.
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
Suddenly, streaks of gray shadows darted out from the mist, heading straight for Ye Yuan.
Each of these gray shadows was extremely powerful, comparable to Celestial Being realm fourth or fifth decay experts!
With opportunities naturally come dangers.
Within the Heavenly Mountain, besides the ubiquitous blue lightning, there were other lurking crises.
For instance, these Gray Spirits.
Their name was Gray Spirits, a unique life form of the Heavenly Mountain during the cycle of heaven's way.
The strength of these Gray Spirits was extremely formidable; the weakest were at Celestial Being first or second decay.
For experts entering the Heavenly Mountain, it was naturally extremely perilous.
But the Gray Spirits that darted out now were far stronger than Celestial Being first or second decay.
Among them, the weakest were at Celestial Being fourth decay!
And it was a large group!
Ye Yuan frowned and said, “I've just started, why am I encountering so many Gray Spirits? This seems… a bit off!”
Roar!
Just then, the Treasure Pig in Ye Yuan's arms suddenly let out a roar.
Those Gray Spirits that had been trying to attack Ye Yuan trembled in midair and abruptly stopped.
With a whoosh, the Treasure Pig flew directly out of Ye Yuan's embrace.
Then, he swallowed a Gray Spirit in one gulp.
The Gray Spirits trembled uncontrollably and frantically fled into the gray mist.
The Treasure Pig had clearly found a delicacy and was unwilling to let go.
With another whoosh, he plunged into the mist.
Seeing this, Ye Yuan couldn't help but laugh.
This Treasure Pig was getting more and more gluttonous.
Ye Yuan could sense that although these Gray Spirits had intelligence, they were extremely pure energy bodies.
For the Treasure Pig, they were definitely a great tonic.
And the Treasure Pig's strength was terrifying, almost equal to the combined force of two Dao Ancestors.
Within this mist, there were truly few beings that could harm him.
So he was quite at ease.
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
From within the mist, the Treasure Pig's roars came intermittently, varying in distance and direction.
Clearly, he was frantically chasing those Gray Spirits.
After who knows how long, the roars in the mist grew sparser.
Suddenly, a pink shadow darted into Ye Yuan's arms.
In its mouth, it held a white sphere.
Burp!
The Treasure Pig let out a satisfied burp, and the white sphere fell into Ye Yuan's palm.
Then, he went to sleep on his own.
Clearly, he had eaten his fill.
But Ye Yuan's eyelids twitched wildly!
“This thing… isn't it too coincidental?” Ye Yuan looked at the white sphere in his hand and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The white sphere emitted an extremely intense water-attribute rule!
That's right, it was the power of rules!
This power of rules surged like a bright moon in the dark night, impossible to conceal.
Even if Ye Yuan were a fool, he could guess what this was.
Rule Crystal!
Ye Yuan hadn't expected that just after setting out, he would encounter the Rule Crystal that everyone dreamed of!
Judging by the rule power emanating from the Rule Crystal, it should be the Water Source Crystal.
He looked at the Water Source Crystal in his hand and was speechless.
You plan for something, but it doesn't happen; you don't plan for something, and it happens by accident.
He had no intention of becoming a Dao Ancestor, yet he encountered a Rule Crystal just after setting out.
Who could he reason with about such a thing?
Rule Crystals could appear in any corner of the Heavenly Mountain.
But encountering one at this location was extremely rare.
Even the Light Dao Ancestor of that year only encountered one after traveling ten thousand li.
But Ye Yuan's was just after setting out, less than one li!
This luck was simply heaven-defying!
The Treasure Pig was also impressive; he went into the gray mist for a spin and brought back a Rule Crystal.
Ye Yuan couldn't help but feel helpless, looking at the Treasure Pig and saying, “You little rascal, if only you could bring me a Tear of Life, how wonderful would that be?”
As if sensing something, the Treasure Pig opened his sleepy eyes and gave Ye Yuan a look that said, “You figure it out yourself.”
Don't show off like that!
The Treasure Pig was not stupid; on the contrary, he was highly intelligent.
He certainly knew the value of a Rule Crystal.
Ye Yuan smiled bitterly, “Who understands my suffering?”
But he didn't stand on ceremony; after all, it was a Dao Ancestor position. Since he had obtained it, he naturally couldn't throw it away.
He put away the Water Source Crystal, but no matter how he tried, he couldn't suppress the rule power of the Water Source Crystal.
Carrying this thing on him was like carrying a lighthouse.
On the lighthouse was written: I'm here!
Ye Yuan was speechless again and complained, “No wonder in the last Dao Ancestor struggle, the remaining strong of the human race lost another large batch. This thing is not a Rule Crystal at all; it's a death-bringing crystal!”
Whoever obtained this would inevitably be besieged by everyone.
The temptation of the Dao Ancestor position was too strong; no one could resist!
So, this was nothing but a death warrant!
