Chapter 73: Chapter 073 Sky Crossing Void

Translator: 549690339

Yang Zhen was almost exhausted from walking. Wasn’t it said that he would randomly appear somewhere in one of the layers of the world? How had he walked for so long without encountering a single person?

This world wasn’t small, but it wasn’t vast either. So many people had entered, yet Yang Zhen hadn’t stumbled upon anyone until now. The big sack on his back was nearly full.

The first layer of this world was truly as the rumors described; it was filled with various rare treasures. The treasures Yang Zhen had gathered along the way were already worth several hundred crystal stones.

However, Yang Zhen had no idea that anyone who glanced at him could immediately receive three thousand crystal stones from Yun Kong and his companions. If he knew, he would definitely seek to get more people to look at him, then share in the bounty together.

Not long after, Yang Zhen was tired from both walking and gathering. These items were essential ingredients for an Alchemist, but they were of little use to him. Moreover, he had to sell them, which was a hassle.

There was a large rock up ahead. For some reason, Yang Zhen had a sudden urge to climb it and take in the view. This impulse had nothing to do with his age-

Just as Yang Zhen climbed up, he suddenly heard some low, muttering conversation.

People!

“Where on earth has that Yang Zhen hidden himself? The first layer isn’t that big, yet there’s still no sign of him.”

“Appear?” A woman’s voice sounded: “Why would he show himself? All those strong Golden Core Stage Practitioners in Yuan Kong’s group are looking for him. If he, a Foundation Establishment Practitioner, reveals himself, his life won’t be safe.”

“Junior Sister, when I find Yang Zhen and get the reward, I’ll marry you. Then, we can be the perfect Taoist couple and live leisurely, won’t that be wonderful?”

The woman huffed: “Senior Brother, do you think we have a chance to kill Yang Zhen? It seems like he carries many valuables. If we can get his storage ring, we won’t have to worry about cultivation resources for decades.”

“But we can’t find Yang Zhen! The entire first layer is deserted. The entrance to the second layer is in the north, and in the west, there’s a hint of the aura of a worldly treasure. We’re stuck in this godforsaken southeast corner. Who would come here? Junior Sister, if you see Yang Zhen, you can pretend to approach him, and then…”

“What if… what if Yang Zhen and I…”

The two vile schemers were very good at plotting, unveiling clearly how they would bewitch him and cut off his head.

That villainous male was speaking about beheading Yang Zhen, but Yang Zhen was more interested in the unintentionally revealed information.

They didn’t say much, but the information it revealed had Yang Zhen overjoyed. After searching for so long, it turned out that he was stuck in the southeast part. The entrance to the second layer was due north, and in the west, they sensed the aura of a worldly treasure.

No wonder the man below referred to this place as desolate. Yang Zhen had been thrown here by the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower; it was a surprise to meet anyone.

Even if he bumped into someone, they would have ulterior motives, like the pair below.

Yang Zhen lay on top of the rock, enjoying the spectacle. Both of them were probably at the ninth layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage. Just as he was considering how to deal with them, the woman inexplicably raised her head, meeting Yang Zhen’s gaze. They both froze in the moment.

The man called out several times, but when the woman didn’t respond, he asked in surprise: “Junior Sister, what’s wrong?”

Yang Zhen winked at the woman. As if snapping back to reality, she let out a scream that could shatter stones, making Yang Zhen hurry to cover his ears.

“Who’s there?” The man roared, attempting to rise. Suddenly, a huge fist descended from the sky and landed on his forehead.

Thud!

The dull sound echoed. The man was left dazed, pressing against the woman. By the time he regained his senses, they were both bound to a tree by Yang Zhen.

With Yang Zhen’s current strength, dealing with these two conspirators was as easy as catching a turtle in a jar.

“Yang… Yang Zhen? Why are you here? We have no grudges, so why did you… why did you attack us?” The woman lowered her head, not daring to look up, her lips trembling as she spoke.

Fear flashed in the man’s eyes as he pleaded: “Yang Zhen, I… I never thought of using you to get crystal stones, and I never planned to kill you… You… you won’t kill me, will you?”

Yang Zhen snorted, too lazy to look at this pitiful pair. He took the items from their clothes and put them into his pocket, then looked at the man and asked: “What sect are you two disciples of?”

“Dajiang Country, the disciples of the Hai Xiong Sect, my name is…”

“That’s enough. I’m not interested in your names. Hai Xiong Sect, what a strange name that is!” Yang Zhen waved his hand and asked: “Are you sure that the entrance to the second layer is to the north?”

“Indeed, it was in the North!”

“You’ve detected the aura of the Realm-Realm Treasure in the West?”

“The news has spread throughout the entire first floor. Most of the high-ranking fighters have gone to the West. There shouldn’t be any mistake.”

They answered every query, not daring to hide anything. Given the circumstances, who dared to say no?

Yang Zhen pondered for a moment, then stretched out a finger and asked in the eye of the two terrified souls, “One last question!”

Upon hearing this, both of them breathed a sigh of relief. They nodded hastily and said, “Ask away. If we know it, we’ll definitely tell you. We dare not hide anything.”

Yang Zhen glanced at them, “I’m sure you wouldn’t dare. This last question is crucial. Think it through before answering. If you answer correctly, I might spare you. If there are any lies, you may as well die!”

Fear drained the color from their faces. This was no joke. To be tied to a tree and left to starve to death – one man and one woman. Even in death, they might be the butt of ridicule.

“Young…Young Master Yang, if I know it, I will definitely tell you the truth. Please…please don’t kill us!”

The woman’s tears dripped steadily, and she wore a pitiful expression.

Yang Zhen was pleased with their responses, stood up and said, “Don’t cry, don’t cry. I’m not a bad guy. Listen carefully to the last question.”

Both eagerly pricked up their ears, even holding their breath, afraid they might miss Yang Zhen’s question.

“Which way is west?”

They both blanked out, looking at Yang Zhen in confusion, it took them a while to react.

Yang Zhen furrowed his eyebrows, and with a clang, drew out his Thunderbolt Sword.

“No, no, no, it’s behind you, the west is behind you!”

Their faces paled even further. The man blurted out in panic. If he spoke a second later, they might end up skewered like sugar gourds by Yang Zhen’s sword.

Yang Zhen glanced back, sheathed his Thunderbolt Sword, and turned to leave.

“You should have said so earlier. It seems you don’t get it without a tough lesson.”

Watching Yang Zhen’s retreating figure, they exchanged glances and both came close to tears.

“I didn’t embarrass myself. Getting lost wasn’t my fault!”

Yang Zhen cursed, his old face flushed red. At first, he didn’t realize what had happened. Only after he learned about the portal and the whereabouts of the Realm Treasure, did he realize that he had gotten lost.

Now that he knew the direction, Yang Zhen prepared to spring towards the west.

Midair, Yang Zhen abruptly changed his trajectory. His figure suddenly became elusive, like a leaf in the wind – swift as lightning yet unforeseeably erratic.

Sky Crossing Void!

Yang Zhen felt exhilarated. The Sky Crossing Void was incredibly satisfying to perform, especially when combined with the Heavenly Tathagata Cloud Dispersing Palm, the speed he achieved was unbeatable, faster than any flying sword.

Before long, Yang Zhen noticed numerous figures in the distance. It seemed that Yuan Kong and the others were there too.

Just then, a humming sound filled the air. A horrifying surge of energy spread radially from the crowd’s center, as if a lollipop-like fruit had ripened.

Here it comes, let the fun begin!

Yang Zhen had a clear view. That red object should be the so-called Realm-Realm Treasure.. Why else would such a crowd be gathered?
