Chapter 1675 First Clash!

Carefully putting away the dangerous treasure, Ye Chuyun glanced at the time.

"Twenty-five minutes have passed, thirty-five minutes remain!"

The third location is the area directly in front of us, which contains an amazing vein of magic crystals.

Ideally, he should be able to collect the magic crystal vein within ten minutes.

With another movement, Ye Chuyun increased her speed to the limit of the current environment, rushing towards that area like a shadow flying close to the ground.

It wasn't that he didn't want to use the spatial portal; the spatial laws here were too chaotic, and using the portal randomly would easily teleport him to the wrong location, which would be a complete waste of time.

The closer they got, the denser and more violent the residual lightning and fire laws in the air became. Every now and then, swathes of lightning snakes and flames would burst out from the void, carving deep furrows into the already shattered earth once more.

It took Ye Chuyun eight minutes to reach the distance of one and a half kilometers.

Only twenty-seven minutes remain...

The scene before Ye Chuyun took her by surprise.

This is a scorched basin spanning several miles, its surface completely covered by a semi-crystalline, hard substance, crisscrossed with crisscrossing natural magical patterns, from which a dense purple mist of almost solidified magical energy rises.

Without a doubt, below lies the astonishingly large magic crystal mine.

Ye Chuyun's heart raced after just a brief moment of feeling it.

If all of them can be collected, at least three million units of magic crystals can be obtained.

This is at least the revenue of the Weiyang garrison for a week.

Moreover, the magic crystals harvested from the Weiyang base need to be used in various places, and in the end, there may be more than 200,000 magic crystals left.

However, if this mine is acquired, it will be pure profit, which can be used to exchange for attribute points.

Must get it!

However, in the very center of the basin, where the magical energy was most concentrated, a huge figure prevented Ye Chuyun from taking immediate action.

It was a humanoid silhouette about three meters tall, covered entirely by a layer of dark purple stone armor that was integrated with the crystalline earth below.

The stone armor's surface was covered with cracks and signs of weathering, and in some places it had even peeled off, revealing a dark interior.

Its head was lowered, and its face was covered by a layer of purple crystals, making its features unclear.

He also held a broken greatsword almost as tall as himself, which was also covered in purple crystals.

The sword tip dipped to the ground, as if it had stood there for eternity.

As soon as Ye Chuyun appeared, an indescribable pressure emanated from the stone-armored monster.

He was actually a powerful being at the Spirit level!

"No, it should be that the deceased Spirit-level experts were corrupted by the dense demonic energy and residual laws of this place, turning into something like 'guardians' or 'law-based corpse puppets'?" Ye Chuyun thought with a chill.

He could sense that although the stone-armored corpse was devoid of life and its soul had perished, its remaining instincts and the solidification of some of its former power still gave it terrifying combat strength far exceeding that of a Heavenly-level being.

Like his former ancestral dragon, although it was only a remnant spirit, the remaining physical body it possessed could still unleash some of the power of a spirit-level being.

Time is of the essence; we must get started immediately.

A murderous intent flashed through Ye Chuyun's mind.

hum!

Seemingly sensing this fleeting killing intent, the stone-armored corpse suddenly raised its lowered head.

A violent fighting spirit erupted and locked onto Ye Chuyun.

It moved!

Simply lifting that broken crystal giant sword, a movement that seemed slow and clumsy, stirred the power of the surrounding heaven and earth.

The dense magical mist in the basin frantically converged towards the greatsword, and the natural magical runes on the sword lit up one after another, emitting a terrifying wave of destruction.

Immediately afterwards, it seemingly casually slashed down with its sword in Ye Chuyun's direction.

It seemed simple, but it made Ye Chuyun feel like she was facing a formidable enemy.

This sword strike contains the ultimate power of returning to simplicity. Wherever the sword's edge passes, the remaining laws of thunder and fire are forcibly absorbed and transformed into part of the sword's momentum.

A dark purple sword aura tore through the earth and appeared above Ye Chuyun's head in an instant, at a speed beyond comprehension.

Ye Chuyun didn't even have time to react, not even a single breath.

This sword strike was incredibly fast, accurate, and ruthless!

It wasn't just a pure crushing of power; it also carried the natural suppression of the spirit-level rank, reducing Ye Chuyun's original power to ninety percent.

"Well done!"

Instead of fear, Ye Chuyun's eyes blazed with fighting spirit.

This was his first direct confrontation with a truly spiritual-level powerhouse.

"Myriad Transformations Spirit Armor!"

With a thought, a layer of colorless, transparent spiritual armor, seemingly capable of reflecting countless lights, instantly covered his entire body.

Sensing the immense magical energy, destructive sword intent, and faint lightning and fire laws contained within the dark purple sword aura, the armor immediately displayed corresponding protective measures on its surface.

At the same time, the minor protective spell transformed into a layer of light golden light membrane and merged into the Myriad Transformations Spirit Armor, further strengthening its defense.

Faced with the sword energy that tore everything apart, Ye Chuyun did not choose to take it head-on.

"Minor Teleportation Technique!" His figure blurred instantly in place, and at the critical moment, he moved dozens of meters horizontally out of thin air.

That sword strike even sealed off the space around him; without using a minor teleportation technique, an ordinary person would have no way to dodge it.

boom! ! !

The sword energy grazed the afterimage as it slashed down, splitting a terrifying, bottomless crack in the ground where Ye Chuyun had been standing, along with the ground hundreds of meters behind her.

The edges of the crack were as smooth as a mirror, overflowing with magical energy and sparks of lightning and fire.

"The attack power is indeed terrifying; a single strike can easily surpass 100 million combat power."

Ye Chuyun felt a lingering fear. If she had been hit directly, even with two layers of protection, she would probably have been seriously injured.

At the same time, the call to counterattack began!

"Nine swords united as one, break!"

The nine sword spirits surrounding him instantly merged, transforming into a giant, transparent sword.

This giant sword was entirely condensed from Ye Chuyun's essence, energy, spirit, and sword intent. It was not greatly affected by the disordered laws of this place. With the will to cut through everything, it pierced straight into the head of the stone-armored corpse at a tricky angle.

This attack also had a combat power of nearly 100 million.

In order to limit the opponent's possible evasion or counterattack, Ye Chuyun simultaneously activated the Dark World.

Centered on him, absolute darkness spread rapidly like a tide, instantly engulfing the entire basin along with the stone-armored corpse.

In this darkness, the laws are distorted and perception is suppressed. Apart from Ye Chuyun, any being trapped within will feel their attributes weakened and their skills difficult to use.

However, the methods of a Spirit-level powerhouse are beyond imagination.

The stone-armored corpse seemed to ignore the encroachment of darkness. Facing the approaching Chaos Sword Soul, it did not dodge but instead held the crystal giant sword horizontally in front of it.

clang! ! !

Like the explosion of two divine mountains colliding, the sword spirit pierced the broad blade of the giant sword, unleashing spatial turbulence.
