Chapter 2096: 2096: Destroying Heaven Hall—Seems Familiar!

Wang Yan! A martial artist with a large saber wrapped in old cloth!

What kind of legacy does he come from? How powerful is he?

Ye Tianchen doesn’t know, but for someone like him with a bold personality, these aren’t the most important things. He wants to find out from Wang Yan why so many people are gathering here?

However, what Ye Tianchen and Princess Zi Xuan absolutely did not expect was that after a few cups of Monkey Wine, without waiting for them to ask, Wang Yan revealed some shocking news that they had to pay attention to.

With a slight hint of drunkenness, Wang Yan said, "So many people are gathered here to take a risk with a legend that in a certain place in the Southern State, there is a tomb suspended in mid-air..."

Upon hearing Wang Yan’s words, both Ye Tianchen and Princess Zi Xuan were stunned, unable to believe it. They had gathered clues about the ’Tian Mu’ so quickly—was this good luck or a omen?

"Are you referring to a place known as Tian Mu?" Princess Zi Xuan hurriedly asked.

"So you two know it already, yes, it is a place known as Tian Mu!" Wang Yan said casually.

Bam!

Before Wang Yan could react, Princess Zi Xuan slapped forward, scaring Wang Yan into quickly dodging and asking, "Hey, what’s going on? Why hit for no reason?"

"What did you just say?" Princess Zi Xuan asked with a flushed face, glaring at Wang Yan.

"I said so you already know this legend!" Wang Yan said in a daze.

"I’m not talking about that, there’s more!" Princess Zi Xuan asked with a furrowed brow.

"I said you two couples..." Before Wang Yan could finish, Princess Zi Xuan’s palm was already in front of him, and Wang Yan dodged away in confusion.

"I’m not related to him, we’re not a couple. If you say that again, I’ll crush you with one slap!" Princess Zi Xuan said through gritted teeth.

"Ah? Brother Ye, you’re not a couple with her? And this little girl isn’t your child?" Wang Yan suddenly asked in a tone that made him seem like a bit of a rogue.

Ye Tianchen smiled awkwardly and then said, "Brother Wang, you misunderstood. She’s just a friend, and this little sister is someone we accidentally met!"

"Oh, I see, really sorry about that!" Wang Yan said with a strange look at Princess Zi Xuan.

"It’s nothing, just a small misunderstanding. Brother Wang, I’d like to know some things about Tian Mu, can you tell us?" Ye Tianchen said calmly.

"Of course, it’s no problem. Let’s sit down and continue talking. There’s still some time before dark, we should wait a bit more!" Wang Yan said with an awkward smile.

Princess Zi Xuan is a very cute girl, but she’s also very short-tempered, yet she’s not an unforgiving girl. Her temper flares up but passes quickly. She didn’t continue lashing out at Wang Yan, she just played with Tu Qiuyu on the side. After all, Tu Qiuyu was just an ordinary mortal who fainted after just a sip of Monkey Wine. When she woke up, she felt uncomfortable, and Princess Zi Xuan was teaching her the basic method of channeling energy, helping Tu Qiuyu to develop her Dantian slowly, laying a foundation for cultivation!

"Brother Ye, the martial artists who have come here this time are almost all outstanding disciples from all major legacies of the Southern State. There’s no weakling here, and you must have felt it too. Everyone here has only one purpose, which is to fight for one of the top three positions in hopes of being selected to go to Tian Mu for an adventure!" Wang Yan looked at Ye Tianchen and said seriously.

"To be selected? Who will choose?" Ye Tianchen thought for a moment and asked.

"A legacy known as Destroying Heaven Hall..." Wang Yan replied with some surprise in his voice.

"Destroying Heaven Hall?" Ye Tianchen was taken aback as he seemed to have heard those four words somewhere before and began to frown in thought!

However, after thinking for a while, Ye Tianchen couldn’t recall it, so he asked, "What does it mean to be in the top three?"

"Brother Ye, you might not know, but there’s always been a ’Tian Mu’ legend in the Barbaric Forbidden Land. It’s an ancient legend that no one knows what’s inside the tomb, and rarely has anyone gone inside, but there are rumors that an Immortal Scripture is inside the tomb, and cultivating it can make one Immortal!" Wang Yan said seriously.

"So, the rumor is that the floating tomb contains the Cultivation Immortal Scripture, which makes many people want to enter and try their luck?" Ye Tianchen asked after thinking about it.

"Exactly, but this tomb doesn’t stay still; it can move. It’s said that this time, it was found by people from Destroying Heaven Hall, who used a powerful formation to lock it down and opened it, but they didn’t dare to enter easily, which is why this gathering occurred. Those who are selected will have the opportunity to enter the tomb with young experts from Destroying Heaven Hall!" Wang Yan nodded and said.

Ye Tianchen frowned; he hadn’t expected to get clues about the Sky Tomb so soon. However, according to Wang Yan, there are only three spots. Only the top three chosen by the Destroying Heaven Hall can enter the tomb. What’s in that tomb? Is there really a Cultivation Immortal Scripture? Why don’t the people from Destroying Heaven Hall explore it themselves and instead organize such a selection?

"Brother Wang, forgive me for being frank, but there could be a plot or even a trap. Such a good opportunity, why would the Destroying Heaven Hall share it with others?" Ye Tianchen said.

"Yes, actually, many have thought of that, but the secret of the Sky Tomb is too tempting. Many are willing to spend their lives trying to enter, hoping to seize an opportunity; even if there’s a trap, people still want to get in. Moreover, I heard another piece of information which might be why the Destroying Heaven Hall people won’t go in themselves..." Wang Yan nodded again and said.

"What information?" Ye Tianchen asked further.

"It’s said that when the Destroying Heaven Hall discovered the Sky Tomb and trapped it with a formation, they tried various methods to open it. Some of their strong wanted to explore inside, but were prevented because there’s a strong Magic Law guarding outside the Sky Tomb, disallowing any martial artist over a hundred to enter!" Wang Yan said with a frown.

"From this perspective, it might be true. However, the people from Destroying Heaven Hall selecting others to enter clearly want others as cannon fodder. We must be cautious!" Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

"Everyone knows that the Destroying Heaven Hall must have ill intentions, but everyone also understands that the martial arts world is cruel and bloody. Only by daring to take risks can one achieve unexpected rewards. Only those confident in their strength can gradually reach the end and become powerful!" Wang Yan said with determined eyes.

Ye Tianchen observed Wang Yan and discovered that Wang Yan’s character was somewhat similar to his. In the martial arts world, those who don’t dare to take risks or fight will never reach the end, nor will they reach the Martial Arts Peak. Only by going through repeated life-and-death battles can one continually enhance their power in actual combat, even knowing the dangers, they must still venture!

"In that case, I also want to see inside that Sky Tomb!" Ye Tianchen smiled slightly and said.

"Brother Ye, are you also interested in the Cultivation Immortal Scripture inside that Sky Tomb?" Wang Yan asked with a smile.

"I want to see what’s inside that Sky Tomb. Indeed, I’m looking for something, but not the Cultivation Immortal Scripture. Of course, if such a golden opportunity presents itself, I certainly won’t miss it!" Ye Tianchen said frankly.

"Great, with courage and spirit! Then let’s win that Cultivation Immortal Scripture together!" Wang Yan laughed heartily and said.

"Determined to win!" Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

Drinks were exchanged, and Ye Tianchen and Wang Yan, sharing similar personalities, got along well despite their recent acquaintance. Of course, whether or not they would distrust each other later was unknown. That would be revealed in time!

Of course, given the wisdom of both Ye Tianchen and Wang Yan, they understood one thing: teaming up was more advantageous than venturing into that Sky Tomb alone. Not to mention how unfathomable and mysterious the Sky Tomb was—could anyone snatch anything from the people of Destroying Heaven Hall?

If there were any dangers, the Destroying Heaven Hall people would surely push the other three ahead. If one of the other three got something from the Sky Tomb, would the Destroying Heaven Hall let them take it away? This was bound to be a fierce battle. Thus, possessing absolute strength would be the guarantee for entering and escaping the Sky Tomb. Forming an alliance to act together was definitely better than acting alone—this was a fact both understood

The night slowly descended, and Princess Zi Xuan pulled Ye Tianchen aside, saying with concern, "Are you really going to enter that Sky Tomb?"

"Yes, didn’t Qiuqiu’s grandfather already foresee it? If we want to uncover the secret of the Transmission Array Compass in the Southern State, we must find the Tian Mu!" Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

"That only means finding the Tian Mu. What Qiuqiu’s grandfather referred to might not even be that Sky Tomb!" Princess Zi Xuan said.

"Even so, a place like the Sky Tomb, which contradicts common sense and feels mysterious and unfathomable, is worth a look!" Ye Tianchen smiled slightly and said calmly. (To be continued.
