After hearing Ye Chen's words, Jian Mengyi stopped crying, her face still streaked with tears and filled with shock.
"You said you entered the Dark Origin Land? And found the inheritance stone tablet guarded by a 7th-tier undead? And obtained two high-level spirit orbs?" Jian Mengyi asked incredulously, finding Ye Chen's achievements truly hard to believe.
You should know that even though she possesses the Angelic Holy Court and commands hundreds of angelic followers, she doesn't dare to enter the Dark Origin Land, let alone take the Inheritance Stone from a group of 7th-tier undead.
Moreover, so far, she has only managed to acquire one mid-level spirit orb; she hasn't even seen a high-level spirit orb, let alone obtained one.
“Yes! Look! Two high-grade spirit orbs! Fatty has already completed the intermediate-level Five Elements Cycle Formation!” Ye Chen said, taking out the two high-grade spirit orbs and waving them around, then turning his gaze to Fatty’s territory.
The Five Elements Cycle Formation was set up, and the most direct manifestation of this was the white mist rising from the territory, which was the air in the territory solidifying.
Over time, it will also transform into clouds, rain, and the atmosphere.
Seeing the scene in the fat man's territory and the high-grade spirit pearl in Ye Chen's hand, Jian Mengyi had no choice but to believe that it was all real.
"What? He's just a goblin clan, yet he's developed so quickly? My Angelic Holy Court only has one mid-level spirit orb!" Jian Mengyi was extremely aggrieved, looking like she was about to cry again.
"It's alright, it's alright! I'll come find you right away, and then we'll go raid the meteorite planet together. We're sure to find a few high-level spirit orbs!" Ye Chen said quickly, afraid that this old lady would start crying again. He had never seen her like this before.
"Hmph! No! I'll send you the coordinates, and we'll meet there. Even if we have to burn magic crystals to get there, we must arrive within 3 days, or it will be too late!" Jian Mengyi turned her head arrogantly, then remembered something and quickly sent Ye Chen a coordinate.
"What's wrong? What's going on?" Ye Chen asked, looking at the coordinates with a puzzled expression. Judging from the distance, it would normally take a week to travel there. In other words, he would have to use magic crystals to travel.
"A brand new wasteland planet has appeared there, and everyone who has heard the news is rushing there!" Jian Mengyi said with a hint of excitement.
"A brand new wasteland planet?" Ye Chen exclaimed in surprise, not expecting that a lost continent would appear in the trial world so quickly.
"Yes, you should know that wasteland planets are those that survived from the fallen dark world and were not completely destroyed. They are home to a large number of dark creatures and also contain many remnants of the original planets."
"These ruins can help your clan grow, master new skills and talents, and even obtain brand new clan lairs!"
"At the same time, in places where dark creatures gather in large numbers, a large number of high-quality dark treasure chests will inevitably be generated, which may contain intermediate or even high-level spirit orbs."
Jian Mengyi said with slight excitement that the appearance of the wasteland planet made the lords who had high-ranking clans ecstatic.
"But aren't wasteland planets usually only found in the later stages of the trial? It's only the second month of the newcomer trial!" Ye Chen asked in confusion. This difficulty level was really a bit beyond the scope of the course.
"Who knows? But the appearance of the wasteland planet means huge gains. We can't just give up so easily, can we?" Jian Mengyi said.
Ye Chen nodded. "You're right. Now that it's happened, we can't miss it. Fatty and I will head over right away!"
"Then I'll wait for you at the coordinates!" Jian Mengyi said sweetly, completely different from her tearful appearance just now.
After hanging up the call, Ye Chen looked at his empty pockets and felt a headache coming on.
Without a single magic crystal, how are we supposed to travel?
"I can only hope we encounter a meteorite planet along the way!" Ye Chen thought helplessly, then called Fatty, and the two set off immediately.
On the way, the fat man was shocked to hear about the wasteland planet. Such planets are common in the dark world, but they are rare to see in the trial space.
Things that usually only appear in the later stages of the trial have been released so early this time. Nobody knows what changes have occurred in the trial space.
"Brother Chen? Do you think it might be because we took the Inheritance Stone Tablet? That caused the dark power in the trial space to strengthen?" the fat man asked suspiciously.
"Probably not. People have taken things from the Dark Land in previous years. As long as the darkness is purified in time, there won't be any problems!" Ye Chen thought for a moment and shook his head.
For some reason, the image of the Lich King flashed through his mind, and he had a feeling that this matter was somehow related to him.
"But what exactly did they do? What caused the anomaly in the trial space? This is the birthplace of new lords!" Ye Chen glanced at the burial ground of skeletons in his territory, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.
The two ignored the small things along the way and focused on flying toward the coordinates provided by Jian Mengyi.
They were quite lucky along the way and soon encountered a small meteorite planet. After clearing it, they obtained several hundred Tier 1 and Tier 2 magic crystals, and then began burning the magic crystals to speed up their journey.
Their lightning-fast travel speed left them no time to pay attention to anything along the way, only stopping to replenish their magic crystals when they encountered meteorite planets.
The lords they encountered along the way all looked at the two of them with astonishment, wondering what they were rushing to do. However, due to the vast territory the two had, no one dared to stop them.
However, as the territory's area increased, the amount of magic crystals burned during accelerated flight also increased significantly. They couldn't even use these magic crystals to refine magic crystal bombs, and instead devoted them all to transportation.
Three days later, the two finally approached Jian Mengyi's coordinates, but by then, many lords had already stopped there, clearing out the occasional dark creatures that rushed out.
Further in, however, lay the territory of numerous dark creatures. A cursory glance revealed that they were all around level 2 dark creatures, which explained why the lords dared not venture forward.
"This? This is too much!" The fat man exclaimed in amazement as he looked at the two sides facing off. The dense, scarlet eyes in the darkness in the distance were enough to make one's scalp tingle.
"Never mind them, let's go to Jian Mengyi first!" After rejecting the lords who wanted to curry favor with him, Ye Chen led the fat man and continued flying towards the coordinates. Soon they arrived at the gathering place of a group of high-level lords.
Dragons, Behemoths, Titans, Phoenixes... one after another, these high-ranking familiars startled the two of them. Fortunately, Jian Mengyi's Angelic Holy Court was equally dazzling, illuminating the darkness. Only then did the two of them fly towards that direction, surrounded by a group of high-ranking lords.
