Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 888: Devouring Secretly
At the entrance, shortly after Ye Xuan and Huo Miao left.

Three beams of light shot out, passed through the narrow entrance, and came to the place where Ye Xuan and the others had rested before.

The leader among the three was none other than Ge Zhanxiong, the first ancestor of Yinsha Sect. The gray-robed old man on his left was Shen Jian, the second ancestor of Yinsha Sect, and on his right was Han Kun, the third ancestor.

After the three old men arrived here, they all scanned the surroundings, but did not find anything special. Han Kun snorted coldly: "So Ye Xuan wanted to set up a trap here to ambush us? Humph, he is really bold and reckless. How can he be confident that he can kill us?"

Ge Zhanxiong frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Don't say these useless things, let's catch up with the Barbarian Ghost Sect first, let's go!"

The three of them simultaneously urged their escape light to fly in the direction where the two people from the Barbarian Ghost Sect had left.

However, none of them noticed that there was a very weak spatial fluctuation in the grass not far away...

……

At the same time, Ye Xuan, who was hiking in a forest somewhere, suddenly raised his eyebrows, stopped, and then closed his eyes slightly, as if concentrating on sensing something.

Huo Miao, who was standing next to him, also stopped, thinking there was some danger. He glanced around cautiously, and then asked in confusion: "Sixth brother, what's wrong?"

Ye Xuan opened his eyes and said, "The Yinsha Sect's people have come in. It seems that our previous guess was completely correct."

"People from the Yinsha Sect are coming? How did you know..." Huo Miao suddenly understood halfway through the question and asked in surprise, "You also left a secret technique for detecting the entrance?"

Ye Xuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, I left it behind when I was cleaning up the trap before I left. I think the detection array left by the Barbarian Ghost Sect in the distance should not have discovered my little move."

Huo Miao said, "We just left and they came in. It seems that it is just as you said. They received a notice from Pei Shenhuan before, so they didn't come in for a long time. In addition to the exploration array bead you found, there are indeed other ones. Fortunately, we didn't continue to wait there foolishly and waste time."

Ye Xuan pondered and said, "Although the previous ambush failed and wasted some time, at least it confirmed that the Yinsha Sect and the Mangui Sect are indeed colluding. It seems that they want to join forces to deal with us here. Haha... Even the first ancestor of the Yinsha Sect came in person. They really think highly of us..."

Huo Miao was shocked: "What?! Ge Zhanxiong is here too?"

Ye Xuan nodded and said, "There are three of them in total, Ge Zhanxiong, Shen Jian and Han Kun."

Because Ge Zhanxiong and the others were close to the surveillance formation when they passed by, Ye Xuan could see their appearance clearly. He also got to know the high-level figures of the Yinsha Sect before coming, so he recognized the identities of the three people.

Hearing the three names Ye Xuan called out, Huo Miao's hands shook unconsciously, and he was shocked. Apart from the old master of Yinsha Sect who had retired and secluded himself, these three people were their strongest lineup. It was unexpected that they came to the Poison Vine Valley together. At the same time, Huo Miao also understood why the other party deliberately "arrived late". It was because they didn't want him to know about their lineup. If he knew before entering the valley, he could immediately inform the sect and make corresponding adjustments.

Even now that he had just learned of this situation, Huo Miao was thinking of reporting it to the sect immediately.

Ye Xuan naturally thought of what Huo Miao had thought of. Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Ye Xuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, third brother. Even if Ge Zhanxiong comes in person, he will only seek his own death. It's just right to deal with them here. Without him, the Yinsha Sect will no longer be able to be the enemy of the Xuanyun Sect."

"..." Huo Miao looked at Ye Xuan in shock. He really couldn't understand why the other party had such great confidence. Ge Zhanxiong was at the seventh level of the Holy Realm and had extraordinary combat power. In addition, there were Shen Jian and Han Kun at the third level of the Holy Realm, as well as Pei Shenhuan, the formation master of the Man Gui Sect, and another saint... Could Ye Xuan and himself, who could basically be ignored, really handle such a large number of powerful enemies?

Seeing Huo Miao still had a serious look on his face, Ye Xuan didn't even mention that Shen Jian and Han Kun were already at the fourth level of the Saint Realm. He comforted him again, "Don't worry, Third Brother. I won't take our lives lightly. Even if they rush at me, I have the confidence to handle it. Even if I can't handle it, I can still retreat safely."

"Huh..." Huo Miao let out a sigh of relief, laughed at himself, and said, "I am a coward. Since Sixth Brother said so, then I will naturally believe it... I will rely on you for everything."

"Yeah." Ye Xuan nodded and said with a smile, "Don't worry about them for now, let's keep moving forward, treasure hunting is more important."

……

The two continued to move forward. At first, the threats from the Yinsha Sect and the Mangui Sect still made Huo Miao feel uneasy, but gradually, this emotion was replaced by shock, and this shock came from Ye Xuan.

As they went deeper and deeper, the monsters and poisonous vines they encountered became more and more powerful, and Ye Xuan showed more and more strength. When dealing with a strange monster that looked like a giant rhinoceros, in order to achieve a quick victory, he even used the Brahma Battle Body and the transformation into a dragon.

Powerful body-refining secrets, space martial arts, three heads and six arms... These methods alone were enough to shock Huo Miao.

Moreover, Ye Xuan had been walking non-stop all the way and had taken action many times, and most of them were to directly use powerful means to clear obstacles. The consumption of holy power should have been extremely great, but he always looked like he was at ease, as if there was no loss at all.

In Huo Miao's eyes, the Poison Ivy Valley was extremely dangerous, but Ye Xuan walked through it as if he was strolling in the garden.

Ye Xuan had his own plans. While he was killing the monsters and poisonous vines, he was secretly activating his innate devouring technique. A dark vortex was constantly running in his elixir sea, and tiny streams of energy were sinking into Ye Xuan's body.

Ye Xuan acted very covertly. During the battle, he always maintained a space barrier to isolate energy fluctuations. In addition, Huo Miao was also fighting, so he did not notice the changes in Ye Xuan's aura.

Although the five ancestors of Xuanyun Sect were good to Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan would not let them know about his devouring.

The ancient devouring technique is too powerful. Once this heaven-defying technique appears in the world, it will let the world know that Ye Xuan exists in the distance.

I'm afraid that those old monsters in the Saint King realm will come out and hunt me down.

The aura of Ye Xuan was gradually becoming stronger, but was then concealed and suppressed by him.

He was only at the first level of the Holy Realm. Facing the First Ancestor of the Yinsha Sect who was at the seventh level of the Holy Realm, he had the confidence to protect himself, but he did not have the confidence to win.

Therefore, after knowing that the first ancestor of the Yinsha Sect had also come, Ye Xuan decisively began to devour the monsters and poisonous vines. This place was simply an endless treasure. If it were in the Northern Territory, after Ye Xuan advanced to the Saint Realm, if he wanted to rely on devouring to improve his cultivation, he would probably have to sacrifice the blood of an entire state.

Of course, he is not an evil cultivator and would not do anything crazy like blood sacrifice.
