Chapter 530.1: The Portal Finally Opens
After Yang Chen came back, he faced a pair of eyes full of expectation and greed, some people were already impatient.
“I have proven that I have the ability to purify demonic qi.” Before Ying Mei came forward to speak, Yang Chen already said loudly “You promised me that the reward should be taken out?”
“You are a really extraordinary Grandmaster.” Without Ying Mei words, the voice in the valley that questioned Yang Chen at first appeared “The things are prepared for you, come and see!”
Li Cheng and the four women have been cultivating in the tortoise shield these days, and only after Yang Chen came back did they withdraw their protection. The other party greeted Yang Chen to count the rewards inside, so the four women and Li Cheng also followed.
For the time being, they don’t need to think about security, as they could open the portal soon. These people would never hope that something will happen at this time. Besides, more than a dozen cultivators have already sworn the heart demon oath. If someone dared to make trouble, they would definitely have trouble getting along with those people.
The fire seeds and pill recipes that Yang Chen requested were said to have been prepared. But it wasn’t on someone’s body, but the person who owned it registered it, and then came over to deliver it to Yang Chen on the spot.
These people actually don’t trust each other, and no one really believes in giving their own things to someone. This guy won’t get rich and will just take everything away. Besides, some pill recipes could be regarded as secrets and handed over to someone for safekeeping. Doesn’t it mean that the person gets the pill recipes without paying any price?
He can’t help but say that the more the cultivators, the richer the net worth. What Yang Chen asked for was only the highest sixth grade demonic fire seeds. However, in order to get the first opportunity to enter the ruins portal, a few cultivators did not hesitate to come up with four seventh-grade demonic fire seeds, which surprised Yang Chen.
These seventh grade demonic fire seeds were not included in the previously proposed rewards, and could be converted into low grade demonic fire seeds, or they could be exchanged with Yang Chen for demon orbs. But if you use the demon orb in exchange, it was obviously not a price but an equivalent transaction, and it would not be counted in the price of preferential entry into the portal. So these people all chose to convert it into low-grade demonic fire seeds.
Although the demonic fire seeds were precious, if it can’t be used, it could only be passed down as a family heirloom. Who knows how many generations later will someone be able to use it. The magic weapon gained from the Heart Demon Sect could be used immediately by himself, which was relatively worthwhile.
In this way, Yang Chen’s harvest far exceeded expectations. There were hundreds of demonic fire seeds just received. From the first grade to seventh grade, everything was available. Yang Chen only asked for twenty kinds, but now there are more than fifty kinds, which was directly more than doubled.
For the extra things, Yang Chen said beforehand that he was willing to exchange them with demon orbs or spirit stones. Not everyone in the demon sect was so generous, some people pretend to be smart, and still choose to exchange for spirit stones or demon orbs.
There was a strong demonic qi protection on the portal of the ruins, and there were many dangers. Who knows if there would be more dangerous things inside? Although the most advanced one has the greatest chance. But the risk of facing unknown dangers was also the greatest, basically those taking the first opportunity were all the dozen old demons with the highest cultivation base and most of them still rank in the middle.
Since this method was adopted, there are things that come first, and those with the least value or no remuneration at all were ranked last. Anyway, these things have been settled by their internal discussions, and it has nothing to do with Yang Chen. Yang Chen only receives remuneration or exchanges the spirit stones and demon orbs in exchange for these fire seeds.
The material and the true essence spiritual power Yang Chen has no extravagant hopes. The top-quality material was different from the pill recipes and fire seeds. You only need to copy a pill recipe, the fire seeds could also be divided through a unique training method. For these guys, the loss was not big, but the best material was one less if you take out one, and no one was willing to give it up.
But now Yang Chen was already very satisfied, receiving the unexpected fire seeds and pill recipes, it was already worth the hard work of this trip. At this time, the Yin-Yang heaven burning fire will become more and more perfect.
After handing over these rewards, Yang Chen finally came to the outside of a formation that had been arranged under the leadership of Ying Mei. This was the key to everyone’s entry one after another. Inside the formation was the portal to the ruins.
The dozen or so old demons who were the first to enter the qualifications, after giving Yang Chen a jade slip, took Yang Chen directly into the formation. Ying Mei didn’t pay much, so he was not qualified to go in with Yang Chen.
The area covered by the formation was not very large, only a few hundred meters square, the center was the portal of the ruins. The portal filled with demonic qi only occupies a few dozen square meters.
Standing in the outdoor circle of the ruins gate, Yang Chen had the opportunity to observe the gate carefully. It was said that it was a portal, but it was actually a huge round slate with countless exquisite patterns carefully carved on it. In the middle of the pattern, spiritual power will flash from time to time.
Unlike the occasional flash of spiritual power, the entire circular stone slate was wrapped in a layer of black shiny demonic qi. The demonic aura didn’t seem to be thick and it didn’t release a trace of aura. In this regard, it was similar to the current nine nether flying sword.
Seeing that Yang Chen looked at the thin demonic qi a little disapprovingly, the leading old demon very solemnly warned “Don’t take this demonic qi easily, there is a big danger in it, so be careful.”
Yang Chen’s safety was now related to whether everyone could enter the ruins of the Heart Demon Sect, so everyone cared very much about his safety. Although the others did not speak, they nodded frequently. They were all people who have suffered a lot from this thin layer of demonic qi, and they naturally have a deep understanding of the power of this demonic qi.
Speaking of the understanding of demonic qi, there must be few people able to surpass Yang Chen now. Yang Chen squatted down and reached out his hand and gently pointed at that layer of demonic qi.
The old demon next to him was about to stop it, and suddenly remembered that Yang Chen was the one who purifies the demonic qi, and Yang Chen seemed to be cautious in his actions. He resisted the reminder and watched patiently.
In the past, if the old demon hand touched the demonic qi in this way, it would directly cause a violent attack of the demonic qi, unconsciously it would produce a heart demon, and it would take a long time to be able to recuperate it, this was just a light touch. If they dare to take a step inward, they would definitely have a heart demon attack, and the whole person would become mad, it was better to die.
There were not one or two people who didn’t believe in heart demons. Many people think that after many years of experience in the Demon Continent, they no longer care about a small demonic qi attack. There were also dozens of people who had stumbled and lost their lives on the side of this portal. They were all masters at the peak and late dacheng stage. After a lot of lessons, people finally realized how powerful they were and did not dare to step forward casually.
The people inside the formation and outside were all looking at Yang Chen eagerly, waiting for the result of his touch.
