"However, the items in that cave this time, they've set my soul trembling— the attraction I feel is tenfold stronger than when I drank the fruit wine during my ascension to the Nine Dragons Sovereign!"

Yun Xianghan's eyes sparkled with an amazing brilliance, the chance within the cave filling her with anticipation.

"I am too weak. Even if there's a heaven-defying opportunity, I am afraid I am not blessed enough to enjoy it," Ye Chen said.

The cave that Yun Xianghan had found was one even mighty figures like the Chaos King dared not enter. Wasn't Ye Chen just asking for trouble by going in?

"With one strike, I can determine the course of events, for wealth and riches are sought amidst dangers!" Yun Xianghan said, her beautiful eyes shining. "If you come with me into the cave, I will give you half of the opportunities inside!"

The chance within that cave made even a Nine Dragons figure like Yun Xianghan crave it immensely, yet she was willing to share half of it with Ye Chen!

"Give me half?" Ye Chen's eyes lit up.

"Who knows what opportunities lie within this cave, but this is definitely a heaven-defying fortune. Even if I give you half, it could possibly turn you into a being like the Nine Dragons Sovereign!" Yun Xianghan said with a smile. "You are now a peak Grandmaster, possessing the strength among the top ten on the Qingyun List, only a small step away from the Nine Dragons figures. If fortune falls upon you, you are very likely to make an immediate breakthrough!"

"An instant breakthrough to ascend to the Nine Dragons!" Ye Chen felt a surge of excitement.

Yun Xianghan was absolutely right. Ye Chen's combat power was unparalleled, almost touching the threshold of the Nine Dragons Realm!

If Ye Chen encountered a stroke of fortune at this critical point, he truly might leap to become a Nine Dragon!

However, even the Chaos King dared not intrude into that cave rashly, so what right did he have to meddle?

"Even the Chaos King is wary of the dangers inside the cave, how could I be of any help to you?" Ye Chen asked.

Yun Xianghan was offering him half the fortune, which was tempting Ye Chen but also made him question. He was far inferior to Yun Xianghan in strength— even if he went, how could he be of any assistance to her?

"You are a natural bearer of great destiny. Your presence can turn dangers into safety, and I want to leverage the fortune within you!" Yun Xianghan declared.

While Ye Chen's cultivation was also exceptionally strong, in the eyes of someone like Yun Xianghan, he was just there for the ride!

However, Ye Chen carried a kind of invincible destiny on him, which during exploration and facing unknown dangers, could play a crucial role!

"So that's it!" Ye Chen nodded thoughtfully.

"What are we doing with this woman we've captured?" Ye Chen looked toward Naimei Xue.

"Naimei Xue is a personal Disciple of the Land God, and she also carries a substantial destiny, her presence can increase our chances of success!" Yun Xianghan explained, revealing a deep calculation.

The dangers inside that cave were unpredictable, and with another person of great destiny, Yun Xianghan would have an additional chance of success!

"Alright, then, I am willing to join you in braving this den of dragons and tigers!" Ye Chen said, looking at Yun Xianghan. "But, Yun Xianghan, you better not play me for a fool!"

Yun Xianghan was a Nine Dragons figure; if she reneged on sharing the fortune with Ye Chen after obtaining it, wouldn't Ye Chen be left having been played like a monkey?

"I belong to the Dragon Group. With the Dragon Head Ring on your finger, you are under the Dragon Head's protection; how could I dare to deceive you?" Yun Xianghan looked at the Dragon Head Ring on Ye Chen's hand.

"Moreover, you have a deep relationship with the Chaos King, and I too have a friendship with that venerable king. Why would I deceive you?" Knowing Ye Chen's concerns, Yun Xianghan was exceedingly sincere in her assurance.

Ye Chen's gaze collided with Yun Xianghan's, and within her eyes, he saw no wavering, only straightforwardness.

Yun Xianghan was not deceiving him!

"When do we set off for that cave?" Ye Chen asked.

"In three days!"

...

During these three days, Yun Xianghan focused on cultivating her body and spirit, pushing her state to the ultimate peak, and even her cultivation level subtly advanced.

Ye Chen was also immersed in arduous cultivation; the immortals were about to arrive, and this made him impatient to grow stronger, longing to achieve the Nine Dragons!

However, among the group, it was Fang Ruolan who gained the most! Ye Chen handed over the Spirit-devouring Insects to Fang Ruolan, and under her guidance, these two peculiar arcane insects no longer harmed people on their own and even became somewhat docile, even obeying her commands.

Nevertheless, this docility of the Spirit-devouring Insects was directed only towards Fang Ruolan; if someone else approached, the insects would still erupt with ferocity.

Naimei Xue's injuries had healed, and this female Ninja tried to escape numerous times but was repeatedly restrained and brought back by Yun Xianghan.

Three days passed, and Yun Xianghan finally took action, leading Ye Chen and the two others deep into the cave dwelling.

However, as Yun Xianghan traveled this path, she often had to extend her senses outwardly to perceive everything and avoid being tracked by others.

The cave contained heaven-defying opportunities, and Yun Xianghan took this very seriously, not wishing to arouse others' attention.

After all, would silently making a fortune not the best way!

Eventually, Yun Xianghan led Ye Chen and the others to a dangerous mountain range and revealed a cave hidden by vines.

"Is this the cave you mentioned?" Ye Chen pointed at the pitch-black cave and asked.

"Indeed!"

"Are you trying to trick me?" Ye Chen said solemnly. "This is nothing but a dog hole—could it truly contain an encounter of a lifetime?"

Ye Chen had followed Yun Xianghan here full of anticipation, thinking that the fabled cave dwelling she spoke of would be grand and imposing.

However, ideals are plump; reality is skinny.

When Yun Xianghan pointed to a dog hole and claimed it contained heaven-defying fortunes, Ye Chen felt like he had been duped.

"There is an ineffable aura inside that attracts the soul; don't you feel it?" Yun Xianghan said seriously.

Something unknown existed within this cave, causing Yun Xianghan's heart to palpitate incessantly, eager to explore it.

"It does seem extraordinary!"

Yun Xianghan looked solemn, and Ye Chen also extended his senses, touched by an unfathomable force.

"This cave holds fortune against the heavens; if I can obtain it, I could ascend to be a Land God!" Yun Xianghan declared.

"Don't forget, half of the chances inside are mine!" Ye Chen said.

"Of course!" Yun Xianghan agreed.

Within this cave lay a chance against the heavens, and if Ye Chen could benefit from it, he might truly leap to become a Nine Dragons figure!

Once he became a Nine Dragons figure, Ye Chen would have the power to look down upon the world, even preserving his life against the descendants of Land Gods!

"Ye Chen, you go in first!" Yun Xianghan said.

"…" Ye Chen's expression stiffened; clearly, Yun Xianghan was using him as cannon fodder!

In fact, Yun Xianghan's invitation for Ye Chen to come here was to use him as cannon fodder; otherwise why would she offer him half the fortunes!

However, bestowed with great luck, Ye Chen had the fortune to avert disaster and not perish easily; this was also why he dared to act as cannon fodder.

But Ye Chen would certainly not enter first—what if there were unparalleled beasts inside that devoured him?

"Naimei Xue, here's an opportunity for you to show your worth!" Ye Chen turned to the female Ninja and said.

"Hmph!" Naimei Xue sneered. "There are unknown dangers in this cave, and entering could lead to death; why don't you go yourself?"
