Chapter 71 As long as I, Xiao Yan, am here, the Xiao Clan will still be the leader of the eight ancient clans!
The inner hall of the Void Heaven Palace is a magnificent tower building, named the Void Heaven Tower, which stands in an independent space.

The tower's interior is structured like a large maze, with countless crossroads, and each crossroads has a small door leading inside.

Because it cannot be explored with divine sense, once you go in the wrong direction, you will be lost forever.

of course.

This is not the most terrible.

The most terrifying thing is that there are also many ancient puppets guarding this tower.

These ancient puppets are powerful enough to rival late-stage Core Formation cultivators, and due to their special materials, even Nascent Soul cultivators would have to put in a lot of effort to defeat them.

Although Zi Ling had done some research before coming to the Void Heaven Palace, she had only studied the information about the outer hall and knew nothing about the inner hall.

Because she never imagined she would come to this inner sanctuary.

So, faced with this palace maze, she was helpless and could only follow closely behind Zhu Chen.

Zhu Chen had no knowledge of this kind of maze.

However, he believed in one principle: brute force can overcome skill.

Any maze is designed to trap the enemy through the arrangement of the surrounding environment.

Since that's the case, he might as well break free from his surroundings and go straight down one path.

He doesn't care about any maze; he'll just follow his own path.

Without thinking, Zhu Chen randomly chose a direction, walked to the array wall, gathered his strength, and punched out, smashing a hole in the array wall.

Then he took a step and led Zi Ling through the wall to another place.

Next, Zhu Chen used the same method, punching and blocking walls, leading Zi Ling deeper and deeper into the tower in the most direct and domineering way.

As he smashes through the walls to pass through, the surrounding walls will constantly change positions, trying to confuse him about his direction.

Zhu Chen simply closed his eyes and continued smashing the wall.

If a puppet attacks, Zi Ling will warn him.

The two worked together to continue their ascent deeper into the tower.

I don’t know how long it took.

The two arrived in front of an octagonal array.

Zhu Chen knew he had found the right place, so he immediately led Zi Ling onto it.

"--boom!"

The moment they stepped onto the array plate, the array plate beneath their feet suddenly trembled and then began to rise rapidly toward the dome like an elevator!

During their ascent, ancient golems will continuously appear and attack them from the nearby atrium floors.

However, these things posed no threat to Zhu Chen at all.

With just a slight movement, he shattered all the puppets.

What do puppets made of hard materials fear most? It's encountering a fist that's even harder than themselves.

Zhu Chen may not have much else, but his fists are definitely enough to satisfy his hunger!

However, his domineering methods in overcoming the challenges along the way truly terrified Zi Ling, who had been following behind him.

Although Zi Ling's cultivation level was not high, as the sect leader of Miaoyin Sect, she still had a keen eye.

The inner palace tower's walls are protected by special array formations, and the materials used are by no means ordinary.

Even if those Nascent Soul cultivators wanted to shatter it, it would be absolutely impossible.

The same goes for those ancient humanoid puppets.

As a result, Zhu Chen didn't even use any magic along the way, and easily blasted all these things away with just his physical strength.

The way to clear the level was completely different from the method used by the person who set up the array, and they almost broke through the entire inner hall tower.

This was the first time she had ever seen such a domineering method of breaking the formation.

This isn't breaking through the formation at all!
They're clearly destroying the formation!

"—Click-clack!"

Just as Zi Ling was thinking about these things, the array plate beneath their feet suddenly stopped.

Without saying much, Zhu Chen decisively jumped off the array plate and continued to charge forward with Zi Ling, smashing walls and bombarding puppets in their path, displaying an aura of 'killing gods and Buddhas if they can't stop him'! Under this unstoppable force, Zhu Chen's understanding of the 'Invincible Path' also became more profound without him realizing it.

Now, every punch he throws generates a terrifying force.

That is not pure power.

Rather, it's a state of mind or artistic conception.

A unique fighting spirit that belongs to him!

Invincible fist intent!
Zhu Chen fought his way through the maze-like tower building, and after about an hour, he finally left and arrived at the central platform of the Void Heaven Palace.

This place is the core of the inner palace of the Void Heaven Palace.

The Heavenly Treasure Void Cauldron is right here.

However, this thing requires the Tongbao Technique to use, so Zhu Chen didn't have any particular thoughts about it.

He came here only to retrieve one thing: the Azure Ice Flame!
The Azure Ice Flame has been burning here for tens of thousands of years, and it has probably become a kind of strange fire.

If he can absorb and refine it, he might be able to advance his cultivation level of the Burning Technique to a higher level.

Although the Burning Technique is not considered a powerful cultivation method in Perfect World, it has one unique characteristic: it can evolve infinitely.

The main reason is that Zhu Chen's "Vermilion Bird Treasure Technique" and the "True Phoenix Treasure Technique" which he is about to begin cultivating are both fire-attribute divine abilities, which complement this Burning Technique.

The higher the level of the Burning Technique, the more powerful his fire-attribute treasure techniques will be.

"Is this the inner palace platform where the legendary Void Heaven Cauldron is located?"

Zi Ling stared wide-eyed when she arrived here.

She never dared to come here in her wildest dreams, but she never expected to be brought here today.

It was quite an eye-opening experience.

Zhu Chen walked straight to the abyss in the middle of the platform, looked down, and saw a large cauldron surrounded by a circle of azure flames. The flames were burning fiercely, as if they were forging the things inside the cauldron.

"Senior...did you also come for this Void Heaven Cauldron?"

Zi Ling followed, but she only glanced down before immediately retreating.

"This thing is not very useful. What I need are those dry blue ice flames below."

Zhu Chen pointed to the bottom of the abyss, then turned to Zi Ling and said, "Wait here for me, I'll be right back..."

After saying that, he leaped into the abyss without hesitation.

The Vermilion Bird Sacred Body is impervious to all fires. After jumping into the abyss filled with azure ice flames, Zhu Chen immediately activated the Burning Technique and began to rapidly refine the azure ice flames.

……

at the same time.

Inside the Immortal Spirit Land outside the Ice and Fire Path.

After a period of harvesting, Xiao Yan and his companions finally obtained a considerable amount of spiritual herbs and medicinal treasures.

[Xiao Yan: Hahaha~, this trip to the Void Heaven Palace was truly amazing! Brother Han Li, if you ever have another resource-rich dungeon like this again, you absolutely must call us! We're practically family!]

Xiao Yan was overjoyed.

With the old herbalist by his side, he has a unique advantage in finding rare and precious herbs.

With the old medicine master's help, he found quite a few good things here.

He has made up his mind that once he returns this time, he will immediately ask Elder Yao to help him refine pills, and strive to raise his cultivation to the Dou Wang level before going to Canaan Academy!

Ideally, one should become a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor).

Then he can show off in front of Xun'er.

What are mere ancient tribes compared to this?
With the help of this chat group, his cultivation speed will definitely not be inferior to that of the young prodigies of those ancient families!

He wants everyone to know!
As long as Xiao Yan is around, the Xiao clan will never decline.

Moreover, in the near future, their Xiao clan will still be the leader of the eight ancient clans!
