Checking in for 100,000 Years-Chapter 647: Phenomena of Heaven and Earth

After hearing the burly, black-robed elder’s words, the little girl, transformed from the Ruyi Jade Spider, squinted her eyes into crescent moons and smiled in delight.

"Haha, this Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse is indeed interesting. I want to go fishing; I want to fish for magic treasures..."

"Let’s have a competition, just the two of us. We’ll see if we can fish out any treasure without using those special Deep Well fishing rods," said the Immortal Divine Silkworm, brimming with fighting spirit.

"Hehe... you two little ones are certainly in high spirits. If the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse really appears, then let’s all fish together," Ye Yun stroked the bridge of his nose and said with a somewhat helpless smile.

"Thank you, Master, for granting us permission!"

The surrounding demon beasts were overjoyed. They clasped their fists in gratitude and bowed respectfully.

Witnessing this, the pupils of the few black-robed elders from Shenluo Tian couldn’t help but constrict slightly. Their fear of this mysterious white-robed youth intensified.

These terrifying Eternal Realm demon beasts show such respect to this white-robed young man; it just goes to show how incredibly strong he must be.

Within the Demon Clan, strength has always been paramount.

This white-robed young man is probably strong enough to face all these demon beasts by himself.

BUZZ! BUZZ!

Suddenly, a conspicuous stream of black light soared into the heavens from the distant sky.

A buzzing sound, like countless bees in flight, drifted into the main hall from afar.

"What is this?" Ye Yun looked on with surprise at the sudden celestial phenomenon.

"Senior, this is quite a coincidence. To think that just as our Shenluo Tian’s Town Dragon Tablet flew back, the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse is about to manifest!" A look of delight quickly flashed across the burly, black-robed elder’s face as he spoke with great enthusiasm.

"Good luck indeed..." Ye Yun nodded, smiling.

He had initially thought it would be a long wait, but the celestial phenomenon signifying the appearance of the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse had appeared sooner than expected.

Truly, as the saying goes, heaven helps those who help themselves.

Truthfully, with his terrifying power, Ye Yun could easily locate a minor thing like the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse, investigate its secrets, and expose the mastermind behind it. But if it happened too quickly, it would rob him of some of the fun of exploration. Now that the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse was about to manifest, it would save Ye Yun some steps.

"After this celestial phenomenon appears, how much longer until the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse officially manifests?" Ye Yun asked with a smile.

"Senior, it will probably take around ten days..." the burly, black-robed elder answered truthfully.

"Hmm!" Ye Yun nodded. He looked in a certain direction and suddenly asked, "What treasures have the other Three Supreme Heavens acquired?"

A bitter expression appeared on the burly, black-robed elder’s face as he quickly explained, "Senior, I truly don’t know! Each sect guards this secret strictly..."

"Hmm!" Ye Yun did not inquire further, nodding lightly.

There were still ten days, plenty of time to investigate the other factions properly.

With this thought in mind, Ye Yun turned around and walked out of the grand hall.

The other demon beasts remained silent, merely following closely behind him.

Seeing this terrifying group of great demon beasts about to leave Shenluo Tian, the burly, black-robed elder was drenched in sweat. He let out a quiet sigh of relief.

Shenluo Tian had truly had a brush with death at the Ghost Gate Pass this time. What a close call. As far as Shenluo Tian was concerned, they had only lost one Town Dragon Tablet. No one in the sect had been injured. This was incredibly fortunate. He had initially considered reporting this matter upwards, but on second thought, he absolutely couldn’t do that. If they angered these terrifying great demon beasts, and an Eternal Realm great demon beast came secretly for them later, the entire Shenluo Tian would be wiped out. If Shenluo Tian was wiped out, even if a Sky-Level Sect avenged them, what good would that do? Wouldn’t they have been sacrificed for nothing?

Just as the burly, black-robed elder was thinking this, his eyes suddenly became unfocused, as did those of the others with him.

A few seconds later, they regained their senses.

"What just happened? Damn it, how did our Town Dragon Tablet disappear?" the white-faced elder looked at the empty altar, his face filled with terror.

"How could the Town Dragon Tablet vanish into thin air?" the burly, black-robed elder broke out in a cold sweat, exclaiming in shock.

"Look! A celestial phenomenon has appeared in the distant sky!" One of the black-robed elders pointed into the distance, and everyone quickly looked.

"Excellent! The Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse is about to appear!" the burly, black-robed elder gazed at the phenomenon in the sky, extremely excited.

Although the Town Dragon Tablet had vanished, the imminent appearance of the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse gave them a new opportunity.

"The Town Dragon Tablet disappeared... could it have returned to the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse?" the white-faced elder guessed.

"Isn’t there still one more chance?" the burly, black-robed elder frowned.

"Logically, there should be one chance. However, only a few of us can control it. Now that it has suddenly disappeared and a celestial phenomenon has occurred, it has most likely returned to the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse," the white-faced elder said thoughtfully.

"The treasures in the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse are all peerless magic treasures, but the number of times they can be obtained is limited. I suspect the Town Dragon Tablet’s energy was insufficient, so it flew back to the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse to recharge. Perhaps it will fly out again..." another black-robed elder said with an optimistic smile. He expressed a very optimistic attitude about the Town Dragon Tablet flying away.

"Let’s hope so! This time, we’ll buy a few more fishing rods and try to fish out several more treasures!" The burly, black-robed elder clenched his fists, his expression excited and full of anticipation.

Fishing for treasures from the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse depends entirely on individual luck and has nothing to do with strength.

"Our generation is considered the strongest in Shenluo Tian; our luck shouldn’t be too bad..." the white-faced elder chuckled.

"Haha, that’s right!" The other black-robed elders also nodded and laughed.

"Let’s get ready. We’re going to Flying Immortal City..." The burly, black-robed elder waved his hand and made the decision.

Now that the celestial phenomenon had appeared, they needed to hurry to Flying Immortal City to buy Deep Well fishing rods as quickly as possible.

The celestial phenomenon appeared far off in the void, and its effects were widespread. Almost all Cultivators in the Heavenly Sun Dynasty could see it. However, they didn’t understand that this phenomenon signified the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse.

The buzzing sound gradually weakened, and the celestial phenomenon abruptly vanished.

All the cultivators in the Heavenly Sun Dynasty were somewhat bewildered by the sudden celestial phenomenon. They didn’t know what it signified.

"How strange. What exactly is this celestial phenomenon?"

A Supreme Elder from a Superior Great Sect stood atop a mountain peak, gazing in a certain direction with a perplexed expression. According to the sect’s ancient records, such a celestial phenomenon had only appeared two or three times in tens of thousands of years.

A middle-aged man stood beside the Supreme Elder.

"Could it be that some treasure is appearing?" the middle-aged man guessed.

"There won’t be any treasure. If there really were, how could we not know?" the Supreme Elder said nonchalantly.

"Alright then!" The middle-aged man could only nod helplessly.

...

Similar exchanges of questions and answers were occurring in various places throughout the Heavenly Sun Dynasty. It wasn’t just the sects of the Human Race; even the forces within the Demon Clan were speculating about the origin of this phenomenon. But nobody could figure it out.

When the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse appeared, only those from the Four Supreme Heavens would know the true coordinates, allowing them to enter that mysterious space. These coordinates had been first discovered by the Four Supreme Heavens tens of thousands of years ago. Driven by insatiable greed—like a snake trying to swallow an elephant—the Four Supreme Heavens had joined forces to seal the coordinates back then.

「Flying Immortal City.」

Inside a secret chamber.

Who would have thought! The Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse has finally appeared!

The silver-robed young man opened his eyes, a smile of anticipation on his face.
