Chapter 87: Ye Fan's Great Opportunity, A Must-Have

Chapter 87: Ye Fan's Great Opportunity, A Must-Have

'Incredible!'

'This giant egg must be one of Ye Fan's extraordinary opportunities!'

'It's so massive, still alive, and possesses such rich qi and blood. It appears that Ye Fan is destined to obtain it and subsequently hatch a formidable pet from within!'

'The combat prowess of this pet will undoubtedly be immense! It will provide invaluable assistance!'

'Furthermore, with such potent qi and blood coursing through this pet, it's akin to a portable power source for Ye Fan's Wordless Heavenly Jade!'

'With this pet by his side, that fellow Ye Fan will be able to accelerate his cultivation progress even more!'

Jiang Chen's eyes widened in astonishment, then he contemplated, 'Additionally, the origin of those flesh and blood creatures is likely connected to this enormous egg...'

The defining trait of the blood-hued monsters was their consumption of the flesh and blood of living beings.

Subsequently, a golden-red inner core would solidify within their heads.

Yet, in this subterranean space, the golden-red inner cores of the creatures had diminished in size.

It was undeniable.

They had contributed the qi and blood they amassed to the giant egg!

'This must be a setup left by the previous possessor of the Cave Heaven secret realm!'

'Capable of leaving behind a Cave Heaven secret realm, that formidable power must be exceptionally mighty, and this enormous egg is certainly no ordinary object!'

'Perhaps, it will prove even mightier than I initially envisioned!'

'In that case... I must seize it from Ye Fan's grasp!'

Jiang Chen mulled over these thoughts, opting to remain in place and continue his covert observation.

On the battlefield.

The conflict intensified with each passing moment.

Injuries were sustained by combatants now and then!

"Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain! Members of the Azure Jade Sect!"

"Since you've made it this far as well, join the fray immediately! Rest assured, you won't be denied your share of rewards later!"

Qiu Linrui of the Bright Sun Sect called out without glancing back.

"People of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain and the Azure Jade Sect!"

"I, representing the Heavenly Blade School, am prepared to offer generous rewards to enlist your aid in this battle!"

Xie Lianchu from the Heavenly Blade School declared solemnly, "Upon the battle's conclusion, we shall immediately fulfill our pledge!"

"Hmph!"

"People of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain and the Azure Jade Sect, hasten to serve as monster bait!"

"Or else, I'll slay you first!"

Fei Chao from the Beast Emperor Mountain menaced with a sinister expression.

The leading disciples of the Divine Wind School and the Water Cloud Sect likewise spoke up in turn, urging those from the Azure Jade Sect and the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain to spring into action.

"Senior Brother, should we intervene?"

A disciple from the Azure Jade Sect inquired of Guo Ji.

Guo Ji's brow furrowed, clearly uncertain about the appropriate course of action.

"I believe it's unnecessary at the moment."

Ye Fan unexpectedly chimed in.

"Why?"

A puzzled voice inquired.

"No one asked for your opinion. Why are you responding?"

Someone shot a disdainful glance at Ye Fan.

"I propose we enter the fray!"

"However, not as hired assistance, but as contenders!"

"We, too, aspire to vie for that grand opportunity!"

A fierce determination shone on someone's face as their gaze, brimming with greed and desire, locked onto the giant egg.

"Exactly!"

"By now, those five major sects have sustained considerable losses."

"Merely judging by the numbers, they're not much different from us!"

"Thus, we're already qualified to contend for that treasure!"

Another person, with a covetous gaze fixed on the enormous egg, chimed in to sway the crowd.

These two spoke in succession, making persuasive arguments.

Consequently.

The others nodded in concurrence.

"Alas!"

Ye Fan sighed.

In his perspective, they could have waited and observed the unfolding events.

Regrettably, his own comrades had been blinded by their ambitions.

What a shame.

He couldn't dissuade them.

Or rather, he didn't wish to reveal his true capabilities in order to halt their course.

"Since everyone concurs, let's proceed!"

"Competing for this opportunity is a matter of mere moments, and advancing earlier will enable us to grasp the elusive chance more swiftly!"

"..."

Guo Ji declared, exchanging knowing looks with the true disciples of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain, arriving at a mutual understanding.

The others nodded in agreement.

"Let's move, we're advancing!"

Guo Ji gestured with his hand and promptly led the group to storm into the subterranean chamber!

Ye Fan seamlessly merged with the throng.

His gaze continually roamed over the giant egg.

Of course, he could also discern the tremendous benefits this object would bestow upon him, and he was resolute in acquiring it!

Nonetheless.

The present moment was not the optimal time to act.

As such.

Ye Fan decided to maintain his hidden strength and bide his time for the perfect moment to act.

At that moment.

Members of the Azure Jade Sect and the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain simultaneously stormed the battlefield.

However.

Instead of targeting the monsters, they made a beeline for the giant egg.

Indeed.

With others preoccupied with fighting the monsters, they chose to take advantage of the situation and snatch the rewards for themselves.

"You deceitful scoundrels, have you no shame!"

Fei Chao from the Beast Emperor Mountain, notorious for his fiery temper, abandoned the monster he had been battling. He set his sights on the members of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain and the Azure Jade Sect.

With a forceful stomp, he cracked the ground beneath him, and like a cannonball, he charged at the members of the Azure Jade Sect and the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain from behind.

"Roar!"

The blood-colored monster promptly followed suit.

"Unite to hold him off!"

Guo Ji's expression shifted drastically, not anticipating Fei Chao's response to be so vehement.

Unwilling to leave his back exposed to Fei Chao, he hastily spun around and activated his cultivation method, forming a protective barrier!

Simultaneously.

The majority of the others halted as well, pivoting to confront Fei Chao.

Yet, some individuals remained fixated on the enormous egg, charging directly towards it!

"Ahahaha!"

"This mysterious treasure egg is mine!"

An elated cry escaped this Late-stage Spiritual Awakening cultivator from the Azure Jade Sect. Overwhelmed with excitement, he even extended his arm and managed to touch the enormous egg!

Nonetheless.

Precisely at that instant!

Whoosh!

Slice!

A razor-sharp blade morphed into a slender streak, immediately penetrating his skull!

"Hmph!"

"Attempting to steal Qiu's treasure, completely seeking one's own doom!"

Qiu Linrui scoffed icily, retracted his hand, and proceeded to battle the monster before him.

That assault had just been executed by him!

"He got what he deserved!"

Someone chortled in concurrence.

In truth.

Previously, the prominent sects had reached this location nearly concurrently, and initially, they all vied for the giant egg.

They engaged in battle for some time, resulting in several casualties.

Subsequently, from the small mound composed of blood vessels beneath the giant egg, numerous blood-hued creatures emerged.

Everyone unspokenly commenced addressing the monstrous threat.

As for the giant egg, once the monsters were vanquished, they would all vie for it once more!

Currently, the Azure Jade Sect and the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain sought to breach this unwritten rule, so they were naturally met with a collective assault!

At this very moment.

"Bang!!"

Fei Chao's strike forcefully connected with Guo Ji's defense.

With a disparity of one minor realm between them, the latter was promptly sent soaring through the air, ultimately landing directly in front of a monster.

"No!!"

Guo Ji's hair stood on end in sheer terror, yet his body was enveloped by an immense force, rendering him immobile.

"Roar!"

The creature raised its hand, and the three lengthiest razor-sharp claws penetrated Guo Ji's body without hesitation!

Such a sight.

Instantly struck fear into the hearts of the Azure Jade Sect and the Purple Bamboo Spirit Mountain members, their faces turning ashen!

Guo Ji had been the mightiest among them.

Yet now, he had perished so swiftly and so wretchedly!

They could almost envision themselves meeting a fate akin to Guo Ji's.

Fortuitously.

Now, in their struggle against the monsters, the five major sects required additional forces.

"Go deal with the monsters on my behalf, or you shall all perish!"

Fei Chao sneered and pivoted to confront the creature once more.
