The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 317 - 316 Heavenly Pond Graveyard

Chapter 317: Chapter 316 Heavenly Pond Graveyard

Finally, amid the roars, the Heavens Cloud Divine Sect and the Canghai Sect both lost dozens of disciples before they managed to escape with their lives.

After that, they no longer dared to pursue Ye Xuan and his group.

After escaping, the members of both sects showed expressions of relief at having survived the ordeal.

But many were also filled with a mix of panic and sorrow.

Just moments ago, they had watched their fellow sect brothers and sisters killed by the Demon Soul, and there was nothing they could do but flee.

"Damn it!"

Yun Chen, furious, slammed his palm onto the ground.

Boom!

The impact caused a tremendous tremor.

"Yun Chen!" Hua Qiuchen’s face changed instantly.

The faces of everyone else rapidly shifted as well.

Yun Chen’s heart skipped a beat, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

Boom, boom, boom————

Underneath the ground, it seemed as if some monster was about to emerge, causing an earthquake.

"It’s ghosts!"

The crowd quickly realized.

"Run!"

Without any hesitation, they began another race for their lives.

Yun Chen’s angry slap had disturbed the ghosts underground, now coming to trouble them.

They had just survived an assault by the Demon Soul, and now they were fleeing once more.

Only after they had run a great distance did they finally catch their breath.

This is terrifying as hell!

Lucky for them, they ran fast; otherwise, they would have been goners.

After stopping, they were all still shaken.

That was close, it’s like going from the tiger’s den straight into the wolf’s lair!

They couldn’t help but wear strange expressions on their faces, especially when looking at Yun Chen.

The Divine Son really made a mess of things and nearly got them killed.

"Brother, we can’t keep focusing on those from the Emperor Immortal Sect; otherwise, our venture into the Ghost Tomb will have been for nothing," Yun Tong took a deep breath and said to Yun Chen.

Hua Qiuchen also nodded, "Indeed, we can’t follow them anymore. That Ye Xuan is truly too sinister!"

That Three-headed Demon Wolf’s demon soul from just now was clearly the same one Ye Xuan and his group had first encountered.

They could sense that presence,

But the Three-headed Demon Wolf’s demon soul had clearly disappeared only to suddenly reappear just now, nearly killing them all.

This was definitely Ye Xuan’s doing!

He was certain that if they continued to pursue Ye Xuan, they would meet a horrible end!

Yun Chen’s face was a mix of dark clouds and sunlight, and while murderous intent filled his heart, there was nothing he could do.

This setback would have to be swallowed like shattered teeth.

"Retreat!" Despite his extreme reluctance, Yun Chen also knew that if they continued to follow Ye Xuan, they would only suffer even more.

He hadn’t forgotten the real reason he came to the Ghost Tomb.

So, the group adjusted their mood, stopped tracking Ye Xuan and his group, and began to search for their own fortunes.

"They’ve run off."

Next to Ye Xuan, Zhou Bingyi laughed.

"Why keep staring at them? You might as well look at that ghost over there," Ye Xuan gave Zhou Bingyi a glance.

"Eh? Can the Second Princess see ghosts?" The others couldn’t help but express their surprise.

Zhou Bingyi nodded, "I can see ghosts that you cannot, but it’s precisely because I can see them that I am scared."

"You’re a ghost yourself, what’s there to be afraid of?" Ye Xuan joked.

Zhou Bingyi was stunned for a moment, "How am I a ghost?"

Ye Xuan said with a half-smile, "Aren’t cowards also considered ghosts?"

At this statement, everyone struggled to stifle their laughter.

Zhou Bingyi’s face flushed with anger, "Ye Xuan! I won’t call you brother-in-law anymore!"

Along the way, the group’s mood was rather cheerful.

However, when encountering ghosts, everyone remained extremely solemn, not letting down their guard just because Ye Xuan was present.

This was something Ye Xuan had taught them.

In the face of the unknown, one must maintain a certain level of vigilance, but not be overly fearful.

Because fear could muddle one’s thoughts.

Just like in battle, if one’s mind is in disarray, one will inevitably reveal flaws for the enemy to exploit.

These principles were taught by Ye Xuan along the way, and they all took heed.

Three days later.

Each person had acquired four or five treasures.

This trip into the Ghost Tomb had already proven to be hugely profitable for them.

Just as they were thinking of exploring further, Ye Xuan stopped them.

"You’ve had enough good fortune for now, if you continue, it will only consume your own spiritual energy, resulting in a loss not worth the gain," Ye Xuan said.

"I hope you understand the principle of quitting while you’re ahead."

Ye Xuan said.

However, everyone seemed to understand yet not understand his words.

But since the eldest senior brother had spoken, they followed the order, and that settled it.

"Within this Ghost Tomb, there also exists an excellent site for cultivation, I’ll take you there."

Ye Xuan, using the power of the Emperor Soul, had searched and found a place suitable for cultivation, leading everyone there.

"There actually exists such a place within this Ghost Tomb?"

The crowd was astonished by the scenery around them.

At this moment, they had entered a valley.

Compared to the gloomy skies around, this valley felt like a desert oasis.

Once everyone entered, they immediately felt the rich Spiritual Energy, which was even ten times denser than the one at Emperor Immortal Sect.

If one were to cultivate here, their efforts would surely yield double the results!

"This place is considered deep within the Ghost Tomb, surrounded by many ghosts, others can’t break in. Your chance has basically arrived, you may cultivate here."

Ye Xuan said.

"Yes, Eldest Senior Brother!"

Everyone respectfully responded.

"Youwei, you should also cultivate here," Ye Xuan said to Zhou Youwei by his side.

"What about you?" Zhou Youwei asked.

"I’m taking him to eat something," Ye Xuan gestured to Tian Lu with a nod of his head and said.

"Then you be careful," Zhou Youwei said softly.

Soon, Ye Xuan left with Tian Lu.

In the span of three days, he had unearthed many treasures for the disciples of the Emperor Immortal Sect, each person receiving four or five items, which was enough.

If they continued to excavate, it would consume their luck.

Luck is mysterious, beyond mysterious.

But Ye Xuan, who had lived through countless ages, knew very well that in a person’s life, luck is exceedingly important.

When luck is poor, danger will descend.

When luck is flourishing, good things will happen.

Having lived through countless ages, the things Ye Xuan had grasped far exceeded the understanding of ordinary people.

"Next, I’ll take you to eat some good stuff," Ye Xuan patted Tian Lu’s head and then mounted its back.

Boom!

Tian Lu instantly transformed into a blur and disappeared.

The speed was more than ten times what it had been before.

Previously, Tian Lu had been cautious not to lose the disciples from the Emperor Immortal Sect, so it had always moved slowly.

But now, with only Ye Xuan accompanying it, it naturally unleashed its full speed.

Man and beast began to wildly hunt for treasure within the Ghost Tomb.

Wherever they went, not a blade of grass was left alive.

One after another, graves were dug up, and the treasures found were all fed to Tian Lu.

The more it ate, the faster Tian Lu’s evolution would be!

The terrifying aspect of the Pixiu Holy Beast lies in its ability to consume wealth from all directions without letting it leak away.

And these treasures would also transform into strength for Tian Lu’s evolution.

When Tian Lu evolved into a true Pixiu Holy Beast, with just an open mouth, treasures from all directions would automatically enter its mouth.

However, the actions of Ye Xuan and Tian Lu also led to chaos in the Ghost Tomb.

Many cultivators had not yet had the chance to excavate treasures, only to find that Ye Xuan beat them to it.

Some even lured away the ghosts, intending to dig for treasure, but upon returning found that the treasures had already been plundered.

"That damned fellow!"

For a time, the entire Ghost Tomb was filled with resentment and anger.

Ye Xuan rode on Tian Lu’s back, silently searching for the whereabouts of the Divine Sun Sword.

After searching for a long time, there seemed to be no trace of the Divine Sun Sword.

Could it be that Zhou Chaolong and the three old men sensed it wrong, and it’s not within this Ghost Tomb, but inside the Yinling Mountain Range?

Ye Xuan gently shook his head.

If it truly were within the Yinling Mountain Range, he would have noticed it already.

The Divine Sun Sword must be here.

It was only because some Laws within the Ghost Tomb suppressed its aura, making it impossible for Ye Xuan to detect it.

It seems that all hope must be placed on Tian Lu now.

And so, an entire month passed.

Ye Xuan still had not found the Divine Sun Sword, but he had found a Ghost Spirit Fruit.

"This Ghost Tomb indeed has some connection with the Heavenly Pond Graveyard..."

When he found the Ghost Spirit Fruit, a glint of sharpness flashed across Ye Xuan’s eyes.

The Heavenly Pond Graveyard is a terrifying forbidden land between heaven and earth, also containing endless graves, where those buried within are extremely formidable entities.

And the Ghost Spirit Fruit is a peculiar fruit that can only be found in the Heavenly Pond Graveyard.

After consuming a Ghost Spirit Fruit, it won’t increase a person’s Cultivation, but it can greatly strengthen their soul!

"The legendary Ghost Spirit Fruit is indeed real!"

At that moment, a large group of people appeared not far away.
