190: Chapter 190 The Great Sage Who Suppresses the Sea

"This... could it be that someone really came here before me?"

The appearance of empty boxes one after another caused Ye Xuan, who had been feeling smug, to gradually become restless.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

After opening a few more boxes and finding that they were still empty, Ye Xuan shouted irritably.

"I am the destined protagonist; who could have higher Luck than me?"

"In this Sages Grotto-Heaven, it should be that I eat the meat and others drink the soup!"

With trembling hands, Ye Xuan opened two more boxes with a ferocious expression.

The result...

"Crack!"

After fiercely throwing the empty jade box in his hand onto the ground, Ye Xuan suppressed the rage in his heart and looked at the other jade boxes.

"Clatter!"

"Crack..."

As the number of scattered empty jade boxes on the floor continued to increase, Ye Xuan was on the verge of exploding with rage.

"Huff, puff, huff, puff!"

Ye Xuan was panting heavily, his eyes bloodshot, and his originally fair and clean face had now completely turned a greenish-black.

This was completely different from the usually gentle and refined Ye Xuan with his mysterious smile.

"Who on earth came here before me?"

"It's best if you don't let me find out, otherwise, I will make you wish you were dead!"

"Snap!"

Crushing the empty jade box in his hand to pieces, Ye Xuan gritted his teeth and roared.

Soon, only the last jade box remained on the wooden shelf.

After opening the last jade box, Ye Xuan's black hair danced without wind, and the clothes on his body rustled loudly!

At this moment, the temperature in the secret chamber plummeted.

The Medicinal Pill is mine, the jade box is yours! Thirty-eight jade boxes, Your Excellency, take your time opening them! — Left by Lin Feiyu.

On the bottom of the box, a line of vigorous and powerful, flowing calligraphy was exceptionally eye-catching.

"Lin Feiyu!"

"Regardless of whether you took these Medicinal Pills or if it was someone else!"

"I, Ye Xuan, swear that I will grind your bones to dust and perform Soul Refining on your tendons!"

"Pfft...!"

After the roar, Ye Xuan was immediately overcome with rage, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.

"Achoo!"

"Achoo..."

"Who is thinking of me so much?"

"Could it be that beautiful young lady I met at the entrance of the Immortal Cave who exuded such a fragrance?"

Meanwhile, Lin Feiyu, who was searching for an Opportunity somewhere in the Sages Grotto-Heaven, seemed to sense something. After sneezing several times in a row, he secretly fantasized in his heart.

"The fifteenth one. There are still some people's Opportunities that are further away. After I get the Pill Formula for the Clear Spirit Barrier Breaking Pill, I'll go find them one by one!"

"Hehe, that'll teach you for having loose lips!"

"I laugh triumphantly, I laugh triumphantly again..."

Humming a catchy song from his past life, Yun Chenfei headed towards the depths of the Secret Realm with a cheeky grin.

The reason Yun Chenfei did not go to intercept Ran Xueyao's Opportunity first was, firstly, because of the seven star meridian connecting pill. Secondly, it was because Ran Xueyao's Opportunity was of little use to Yun Chenfei.

Now, not only were there Opportunities more suitable for him, but he could also take revenge on those who insulted him and wanted to harm him, venting his anger. Why not do it?

After Ye Xuan came out of the secret chamber, he returned to his graceful and hypocritical appearance.

Although Ye Xuan's Opportunity for the seven star meridian connecting pill had been intercepted by Yun Chenfei, the title of destined protagonist was not just for show.

Not long after coming out of the secret chamber empty-handed, Ye Xuan triggered a short-distance teleportation node hidden in the Void Realm.

The place he entered this time was still a secret chamber. This secret chamber was not only larger than the previous Alchemy room, but the items placed inside were also far more numerous than in the Alchemy room.

It looked like this was a storage room, and the items inside were all weapons, Magic Treasure, and the like. It was likely that these were items discarded by the owner of this Immortal Cave, or spoils of war obtained after killing enemies.

"Ha, ha, ha!"

"See, I was right! I told you I was the Heaven-chosen son!"

"Surely no one could have entered here before me, right?"

Looking at the various weapons and Magic Treasure placed before him, Ye Xuan said with wild laughter.

A moment later, Ye Xuan walked out of the storage room looking triumphant.

At this moment, except for those Cultivators with low destiny value who had cursed Yun Chenfei in front of the Crystal Wall Protective Formation and gained nothing, most of the Cultivators who entered this Sages Grotto-Heaven had obtained some treasures to varying degrees.

The group from the Xuan Yue Sect had also all gained something. Even Jing Sheng's Little White Tiger had harvested a bag of demon pills within this Sages Grotto-Heaven.

Besides Yun Chenfei, who was a cheater, the person from the Xuan Yue Sect who had gained the most so far was Mu Chenfeng.

After all, Mu Chenfeng's sword contained a remnant soul grandfather. Under the guidance of the remnant soul grandfather, if Mu Chenfeng still gained nothing, that would truly be the height of absurdity.

"System, specify treasure hunt for the Clear Spirit Barrier Breaking Pill Pill Formula!"

"Ding! Treasure hunting activated, deducting 3000 destiny value. Target of this treasure hunt: Tier 8 Pill Formula — Clear Spirit Barrier Breaking Pill."

"Hmph, hmph!"

"How dare you try to harm me!"

"I will fleece you until you're dead!"

Following the treasure hunting route provided by the System, Yun Chenfei moved with sparks and lightning, his speed off the charts.

A quarter of an hour later, Yun Chenfei arrived at Great Sage Zhenhai's study.

The room was decorated very elegantly, one could even say it was very simple. In the empty room, there was only a table, a chair, and a not-too-large bookshelf.

Most of the books on the bookshelf had weathered away with the passage of time. At this moment, a book emitting a faint fluorescent glow caught Yun Chenfei's attention.

My name is Gao Shou. After Cultivating for over six hundred and sixty years, I shed my mortal coil and became a Saint, and the world honors me as Great Sage Zhenhai. However, fate was unkind; just as I was preparing to break through from Saint to Emperor, the demons from outside the realm attacked!

With foreign enemies invading, as a man of integrity, how could I hide from the world? A fierce battle lasted for a hundred years! Blood flowed like rivers, and a million corpses lay in the fields!

Although I endured thousands of hardships and annihilated all the invading enemies, I was unfortunately severely wounded, knowing that there was no hope of Breakthrough and that my days were numbered. Therefore, I have written down my life's Cultivation insights to leave for future generations. I hope you will protect our kind and not suffer oppression! I wish for future generations to rise and be spared from devastation!

These few short lines made Yun Chenfei feel a heartfelt sense of respect for Great Sage Zhenhai.

After keeping Great Sage Zhenhai's handwritten notes close to him, Yun Chenfei found a Jade Slip in the corner of the bookshelf.

What was recorded inside the Jade Slip was the refining method for the Clear Heart Barrier Breaking Pill. And the person who created such a Heaven-Defying Pill Formula was none other than Great Sage Zhenhai himself.

"I really didn't expect that Great Sage Zhenhai not only had peerless Cultivation talent but was also a genius in Alchemy."

"Such a brilliant and talented individual; if it weren't for the descent of the Heavenly Demon Clan, relying on the Clear Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, this Great Sage Zhenhai might truly have been able to break through from Saint to Emperor and achieve the supreme Imperial position."

Putting away the Jade Slip with a sigh, Yun Chenfei then left Great Sage Zhenhai's study.
