69 Fog (2/2)
So it turned out that the deceased warrior was being pursued by this big-headed warrior and was forced to his death here.
”This guy…” Shan Ling seemed to know the person.
”Who is he?” asked Yi Yun.
”Bronze Drum. He's also from the Desolate clan, but he's a madman,” said Shan Ling simply.
”Madman?”
”He is bloodthirsty and especially loves to kill humans.” Shan Ling gave Yi Yun a glance and said gloatingly, ”He enjoys tearing people apart. Members of the Ghost race don't have a tactile feel to them, while Celestials are not to be trifled with. Fey are of the same race, so humans are the best. However, if he meets my young master, he would not be able to act so crazily. He will have to behave himself.”
Just as Shan Ling sent Yi Yun a voice transmission, Bronze Drum happened to look over. His pair of eyes resembled those of a beast filled with bloodlust.
Upon seeing Yi Yun, the corners of Bronze Drum's mouth curled up. He did not say a word and ignored Yi Yun.
”From the looks of it, humans don't amount to much in the Chaos Heavens,” thought Yi Yun.
”Regardless of race, all that matters is strength. The weak will naturally be bullied,” Bai Yueyin said in Yi Yun's mind. ”Humans are considered quite average in every aspect. There's nothing that stands out, but it is because of this that they are well-balanced, giving them immense potential!”
Yi Yun understood that point even without Bai Yueyin's comment. Billions of years ago, who could match the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch?
”Oh? They seem to be entering!”
The aura at the valley entrance seemed to experience an unknown change. Meanwhile, Yi Yun saw that these people were putting away their flying artifacts. There were dozens of people that were of the Ghost race, Soul race, and Fey race.
There was not a single human. It was unknown if the Taixia contingent had yet to arrive or if they had entered prior.
Someone took out array flags and began setting them up an array formation. Yi Yun pricked up his brows for he could tell that it was a spatial teleportation array. The array patterns within were complicated but intricate. Even with Yi Yun's comprehension of spatial dimension laws, he acutely felt that the teleportation array was nothing simple.
These people were planning to use the teleportation array to traverse past the fog at the entrance and arrive deep into the God Confusion Valley!
The changes at the valley entrance was likely tied to the teleportation array's operations. That was why they were waiting.
Yi Yun naturally knew how to set up teleporation arrays. However, such teleportation arrays required a predesignated coordinate. Yi Yun had no idea of the situation inside the God Confusion Valley, so if he were to set one up himself, and randomly teleported himself in, that was practically having a death wish.
Previously, Yi Yun nearly died while traversing the multiverse's crevice. Yi Yun had no plans to risk his life for nothing.
In just fifteen minutes, these people had set up a teleportation array. A middle-aged man from the Soul race placed a resplendent crystal which was the size of a fingernail inside the teleportation array.
That is…
Yi Yun's eyes lit up. A Chaos Crystal!
Although this was the first time he was seeing a Chaos Crystal, there was no mistake about it. Each Chaos Crystal which was refined from refined ores were immense in value. Even genius disciples of a Great World did not cultivate with Chaos Crystals.
Yet, this teleportation array had used a single Chaos Crystal.
After the middle-aged man took out the Chaos Crystal, the members of the Ghost race and Fey race handed over an interspatial ring. It was apparently payment for the Chaos Crystal. Clearly, the teleportation array was jointly activated by the three races.
Furthermore, not all of the forty plus people would enter the teleportation array. A number of people were responsible for powering the array formation. Only twenty people were actually going to be sent in.
”Do you still think you can enter? Do you know how many lives were sacrificed to find the destination coordinate of the teleportation array? This is only the entrance. There are even more treacherous conditions further in. Or do you believe you can deal with the Ancient Fey inside the fog?” Shan Ling glanced at Yi Yun with a derisive look. To think this fellow who knew nothing about the God Confusion Valley would dare inject a seal on her and declare that she lead the way to enter the valley for treasure. It was indeed the case that the ignorant showed no fear.
”I urge you to release the seal on me. I can swear that I will not inform my young master about the things you did to me. When my young master exits, he will reward you.”
Shan Ling looked hatefully at Yi Yun. Having not met Shaomang Xuan, this was the only guarantee she could give. The rest could be determined after she met her young master.
However, Yi Yun did not seem to hear her words. He fell silent in thought for a moment before walking straight to the teleportation array.
”What are you doing?” Shan Ling was stunned.
When the teleportation array was in operation, it did not allow for any damage. Any mishap would divert the destination coordinate. Yi Yun's approach immediately made the people powering the array formation wary.
”Who are you? Scram!” A male Fey noticed Yi Yun as he bellowed with a tone filled with killing intent.
”Hehe, this human must be sick of living. Are you here to feed my ghouls?” A male Ghost said with a sinister smile. He had already raised his black ghost banner.
They had already observed Yi Yun when he first arrived. A human that used a low-quality spatial shuttle obviously did not come from a major faction. They disregarded him completely.
Yi Yun grinned as he said, ”I'm planning on using your teleportation array…”
”What!?”
Upon hearing Yi Yun, the Ghosts, Fey, and Souls stared angrily at him. Shan Ling was given a fright. Was this Yi Yun courting death? Although Bronze Drum was from the Desolate clan, she would have a tragic end if she landed in his hand!
Yi Yun gently touched his interspatial ring as he continued approaching. He glanced at the nearby teleportation array. There were a total of twenty people, each taking one of the twenty spots of the teleportation array. There was no additional spot left.
”Are any one of you willing to give up your spot?”
