Currently, based on Ye Chen's guess, if he wants to obtain the Legacy of the powerhouses within the Eternal Sky Tomb, putting aside everything else, even the weakest among them would likely require strength at or above the Emperor Realm.
However, fortunately, within the Eternal Sky Tomb, the Demon Suppressing General has a special privilege: in the outermost perimeter of the Eternal Sky Tomb, no matter which tomb is opened, the strength of the powerhouse's True Spirit within that tomb cannot exceed the Demon Suppressing General's Realm by more than one major Realm.
It was precisely because of this that Ye Chen saw hope.
He thought that once his cultivation Breakthroughed to Martial Warrior Fifth Heaven, and he had mastered the Profound Rank High Grade Martial Skill he had previously obtained, even if the powerhouse's True Spirit in the outermost perimeter of the Eternal Sky Tomb was one major Realm higher than him, Ye Chen believed he should still be able to defeat it.
One must know, Ye Chen was the Demon Suppressing General of the Eternal Sky Tomb.
At this very moment.
Although with Ye Chen's current strength, he couldn't even utilize the lowest-level privileges within the Eternal Sky Tomb.
But according to Ye Chen's deductions, once he Breakthroughed to Martial Warrior Fifth Heaven, he should be able to barely use the Chains of Order within the Eternal Sky Tomb once.
At that time, with the Chains of Order's restraints weakened, if Ye Chen still couldn't defeat the powerhouse's True Spirit in the outermost perimeter of the Eternal Sky Tomb.
Then Ye Chen would truly have to find a piece of tofu to bash his head against and die.
After all, the Eternal Sky Tomb was given to him, if he was useless, what could be done?
Could he really expect the powerhouse's True Spirit in the tomb to stick out its neck for him to kill?
Moreover, for Ye Chen, the Eternal Sky Tomb was also a form of tempering.
...
Ten Thousand Mountains.
As night fell, Ye Tian, after an unfruitful search, led several Ye Family back out of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
"Hmm? Isn't that the Lin Family, and Elder Lin Zhi?"
"Why are they here too?"
"Could it be that they also lost track of Ye Lin and Ye Chen?"
"Logically speaking, that shouldn't be!"
"One must know, Lin Zhi is a genuine Martial Master powerhouse, and the weakest of the Lin Family he brought are all Martial Artist First Heaven..."
"With such a lineup, if they could still lose track of Ye Lin and Ye Chen, isn't that indirectly saying that Lin Zhi and these Lin Family are all useless?"
Ye Tian, who had just walked out of the Ten Thousand Mountains, seeing Lin Zhi and his group resting on the ground not far away, muttered two lines of doubt to himself, then led the Ye Family towards where Lin Zhi was.
After all, Lin Zhi was an Elder of the Lin Family, and he was the grandson of the Ye Family's Grand Elder.
If he didn't go up to greet him, wouldn't the Lin Family say that Ye Tian didn't understand etiquette?
Moreover, Ye Tian thought it was a good opportunity to ask Lin Zhi about the whereabouts of Ye Chen and Ye Lin.
Otherwise, Ye Tian and these Ye Family might search the Ten Thousand Mountains for a month and still not find Ye Lin and Ye Chen.
In just a few breaths.
When Ye Tian led everyone to where the Lin Family were resting, he respectfully greeted, "Junior Ye Tian, greets Elder Lin Zhi!"
Hearing this, Lin Zhi, who was originally resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them, glanced at Ye Tian and the Ye Family behind him, and thought to himself, "The Ye Family is so fast, they sent Ye Tian over so quickly to capture Ye Chen..."
Little did he know, Ye Tian wasn't there to capture Ye Chen; he was clearly there to capture Ye Lin.
As for Ye Chen, in Ye Tian's eyes, he was no different from a dead man.
After all, Ye Chen's Dantian had been crippled by Grand Elder Wang, and all his meridians had also been destroyed.
Such injuries, not just in Ye Tian's opinion, but in anyone's, seemed impossible to survive.
Yet, he never expected that Ye Chen not only didn't die but also turned misfortune into a blessing, Awakening the Eternal Sky Tomb, and even recovering his cultivation to Martial Artist Second Heaven.
It was a good thing Ye Tian didn't know this news, otherwise, Ye Tian would probably have sent all the Ye Family over long ago, and would have searched for Ye Chen even if it meant digging three feet deep.
Lin Zhi looked at Ye Tian in front of him, and feigned doubt as he asked, "Ye Tian, why are you here?"
"Could it be that Elder Ye Zhao sent you to the Ten Thousand Mountains for tempering?"
Facing Lin Zhi's question, Ye Tian shook his head and answered irrelevantly, "Elder Lin Zhi, I heard earlier that you led people to pursue Ye Chen and Ye Lin. May I ask why?"
"Could it be that Ye Chen, a cripple, could still displease Elder Lin Zhi?"
Hmm?
A cripple?
Hadn't Ye Chen recovered long ago?
Could it be that the Ye Family still didn't know about Ye Chen's recovery?
Lin Zhi looked at Ye Tian in front of him, and a plan immediately formed in his mind as he said, "Nephew Ye Tian, this matter is truly hard to explain..."
"Not long ago, didn't Ye Lin bring Ye Chen to our Lin Family to seek help?"
"At that time, our Lin Family thought that Ye Chen was already in such a state, even if he was cured, he would still be a cripple, so we might as well give him some silver and let him fend for himself..."
"Originally, our Lin Family had good intentions, but who would have thought that Ye Chen not only didn't appreciate it, but even openly shouted at our Lin Family's gate, saying that our Young Miss, as his fiancée, stood by and did nothing to help him..."
Listening to Lin Zhi's lies, Ye Tian grumbled angrily in his heart, "This old fox, do you really think I, Ye Tian, am a three-year-old child to be fooled?"
To Ye Tian, Lin Zhi's story was full of holes.
Putting aside everything else, on the day Ye Tian left the Ye Family, Ye Lin had been humiliated by him to such an extent, yet Ye Chen didn't utter a single sound.
But upon arriving at the Lin Family, he supposedly shouted loudly.
Is that possible?
However, Lin Zhi's strength was undeniable, so what could Ye Tian dare to say? He could only agree indignantly, "This Ye Chen is truly too much. The Lin Family had good intentions, how could he say such things."
Saying this, Ye Tian glanced around and asked, "By the way, Elder Lin Zhi, did you manage to catch Ye Chen during your trip to the Ten Thousand Mountains?"
Lin Zhi shook his head and said, "Earlier in the Ten Thousand Mountains, I had cornered Ye Chen at a cliff, but who would have thought that Ye Chen, knowing there was no way out, actually jumped off the cliff with Ye Lin!"
"If it weren't for the Patriarch ordering me to find them alive or see their corpses, why would I be here with the Lin Family..."
What?
Ye Chen and Ye Lin both jumped off a cliff?
My goodness!
Grandpa still wants me to bring Ye Lin back within three days!
Now it seems, what a joke.
I can't possibly bring back a corpse like Lin Zhi, can I?
Listening to Lin Zhi's words, Ye Tian mumbled a few lines in great frustration, then asked Lin Zhi, "Elder Lin Zhi, where exactly did Ye Chen and Ye Lin jump off the cliff?"
Lin Zhi raised his hand and pointed in a direction, saying, "If this old man remembers correctly, it should be over there..."
