Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 617 - 617 | The Cave

Ye Tian Yun smiled upon noticing the tree.

There was only one tree on the whole rocky cliff, which appeared to have no depth.

What was strange was that this tilted tree grew out of this desolate cliff, but it was actually lush and dark green, appearing to be full of vigor and vitality. Its thick trunk stuck into the side of the cliff and was firm like Mount Tai.

Before long, the clouds and mist floated over it again and once again obstructed Ye Tian Yun's line of sight.

Whoosh!

Without hesitation, Ye Tian Yun flew and headed towards the tree.

After a few seconds, he stepped on the trunk of the tilted tree and walked forward slowly. Then he touched the cliff with a curious expression.

However, as soon as he touched the rocks, his hand got sucked into it.

It was as if he wasn't touching rocks but something rubbery.

Pulling his hand back, Ye Tian Yun lightly clenched his fist and gave the cliff-wall a low-powered punch.

Click! Clack!

Just as he punched on the wall, spiderweb-like cracks started to form.

And soon, the rock wall suddenly collapsed, and a narrow cave appeared in front of him.

As the rocks fell, Ye Tian Yun suddenly sensed a rich aura coming from inside of the cave.

He smiled as he knew he had succeeded in getting what he was here for.

'The High-tier Spirit Vein…'

Now, the only thing left for him was to test a theory.

Without hesitation, Ye Tian Yun stepped inside the cave.

This place was extremely strange, and it revealed mysteriousness from every corner, causing Ye Tian Yun's desire to explore it until the end to arise within his heart.

This passage within the cave was full of twists and turns.

Not long after Ye Tian Yun walked in, he noticed total darkness before him.

However, this wasn't a problem. With a strand of burning Qi in Ye Tian Yun's hand, the entire cave was instantly bright as day, allowing him to continue walking forward slowly.

Soon upon reaching the end of the cave passage, Ye Tian Yun saw a trace of a gentle, white light actually flickering there.

Not only that, he could even feel the Qi inside him reacting vigorously with each stride he took forward.

However, the surprising fact was that he could see the light at the end of the cave passage; in other words, that was quite possibly an exit!

Ye Tian Yun continued to move forward, and upon carefully crossing the exit, he found himself in a bright room-like cave.

And to his surprise, there was actually no light source!

It was as if the light simply existed.

'Weird…'

However, what caught his eye first was the puddle of water at the center of the room.

'This…'

Upon seeing this, Ye Tian Yun smiled.

He traveled so far precisely for this puddle of water.

This mere puddle was a High-tier Spirit Vein!

Unlike the one he saw in Gracious Sword Sect, this one was a lot different.

That one was more like a pond, and this was just a puddle.

However, both of them had a huge difference.

The benefits this thing could bring for him were beyond anything that the Spirit Vein in the Gracious Sword Sect could ever do.

Also, while the spirit water was colorless in the Sect's Spirit Vein, this one had a pinkish tinge.

This meant it was the best and highest quality of spirit vein.

If news got out, there would be a war for just a whiff of this pinkish spirit water.

It was just too potent.

Single whiff could give guaranteed breakthroughs to Qi Refining Cultivators.

In fact, even cultivating in this room was much more beneficial for him than cultivating with his resources from the Middle Heavens!

Ye Tian Yun didn't waste any more time and brought out his Nine Heavens Painting.

'Let's try this.'

Ye Tian Yun took a deep breath and put his painting upside down on the puddle of water.

He then willed the painting to suck in the spirit water and bring the whole Spirit Vein inside his Nine Heavens Painting!

As Ye Tian Yun concentrated on the painting, bubbles began to form on the painting.

Suddenly, he had a bad premonition, but before he could react, a bright light flashed.

BOOM!

As if something kicked his head, Ye Tian Yun was knocked out.

After an unknown amount of time, he slowly opened his eyes, and recalling the moments before the incident, Ye Tian Yun became wide awake and immediately looked around for his painting.

To his surprise, the whole room was currently pitch black.

Without hesitation, he spread out his senses to detect any unknown enemy, but he couldn't sense anyone.

Pursing his lips, Ye Tian Yun burnt Qi at the tip of his finger and lit up the room.

He was still in the same room. However, there was no puddle of spirit water anymore, just his Nine Heavens Painting lying on the dry surface.

Ye Tian Yun moved and held the painting in his hand.

To his surprise, the once pure white painting actually had an illustration now.

And upon closely observing, it didn't take him long to notice the illustration of a huge mountain and at the base of the mountain was a small village.

Ye Tian Yun frowned slightly and soon came to a conclusion.

'This is an illustration of the outer world…'

The mountains signified the Thunder Valley, and the village was the Gao Village.

Ye Tian Yun put his spirit sense inside the painting, and to his surprise, nothing happened!

'Hm? Why can't I go in?'

As if the Painting was telling the answer, Ye Tian Yun immediately knew what he had to do - just like how he knew the way to put the whole Spirit Vein in the Painting.

And following the directions, Ye Tian Yun concentrated on the painting.

In the next moment, he disappeared from his spot.
