    In legends, there are many holy traces in the empty tomb of heaven.

    Such as the Pure Yang Hall, the Platform for Teaching Tao, the Cross Cave, the Three-Gazing Slope, Xuan Yuan Bridge, the Nine Elders' Cave, and the Seven Treasures Platform, etc.

    As Chen Yun walked hundreds of miles, the palace complex behind him, like a mirage in the sea, gradually disappeared.

    He estimated that he had already passed the Pure Yang Hall and might soon reach the area of the Platform for Teaching Tao next.

    What is the Platform for Teaching Tao?

    That is where the Yellow Emperor sought enlightenment.

    On his way, Chen Yun found some rare spiritual roots and perfect materials for refining weapons again, but unfortunately, they were all guarded by spirit beasts. After estimating the situation, he thought the probability of winning was very low, so he had to give up those treasures.

    On the contrary, there were only one object of spiritual treasure seen along the way, the Still Water Pearl.

    Just crossed a small stream.

    Suddenly, the scenery in front of him changed, from the original "polar day" to deep night.

    It was not the pitch-black darkness where one couldn't see their hand in front of their face, but rather a hazy glow rising around, as if it were a moonlit night with the bright moon high in the sky, allowing one to clearly see their surroundings.

    The plants and trees in front of him disappeared in an instant.

    In its place was a plain, at the end of the plain, there seemed to be a hanging garden suspended in the air.

    In the middle, there was a huge golden platform, behind it was the Zengcheng ninefold city, which seemed to have no end when looked at from afar. There were various kinds of trees such as wood corn, pearl trees, jade trees, precious trees, sand gourd and banyan trees etc.

    The so-called jade pinnacle heaven, golden platform carrying sky, the green and lind qi universe, Zhu Zi room, connected lind colorful tent, moon four lighthouse, just described is the scene in front of my eyes.

    Chen Yun was deeply moved by this sight. He really couldn't imagine that such a magnificent immortal city was contained within the heavenly realm.

    What made him yearn for it the most was that it seemed to have countless earthly and celestial treasures and treasures on the suspended garden.

    Unfortunately, like the previous palace complex, this hanging garden was far away and could not be reached.

    Chen Yun did not feel disappointed but continued to search around, hoping to discover some treasures.

    At first, nothing was seen.

    He walked along the narrow path for about ten or so li.

    Suddenly, Chen Yun saw an ancient, towering tree in front of him, and it was faintly shimmering with seven-color hues.

    "Hmm?" He stared intently, "Qin Liang, General Ji, have you seen the colored light in front?"

    Qin Liang said, "I've seen it. I don't know what kind of thing it is. I took a look from afar while hiding in the condensation pearl, and I felt scared and trembling."

    Ji Xin's tone was also full of fear, "This colored light seems to specifically suppress yin souls. I have a hunch that if I'm caught up in it, I might not be able to escape again."

    Has it a huge suppressing effect on yin souls?

    Chen Yun couldn't help but blink his eyes, thinking to himself that he didn't know if this thing had any suppression over yin spirits. If it did, then being able to obtain it might greatly increase his chances of winning against the Yin Wuji.

    Thinking about it, he continued walking forward, "Let's go and take a look over there."

    In his speech, Chen Yun came to about ten meters away from the colored light.

    At this moment, he finally saw what was emitting the colored light.

    On the side of the ancient towering tree, there was something floating that was somewhat like a banner. The colored light was released from the top of the banner and surrounded a circle of about three to four meters. It seemed like it had created a barrier on its own.

    Treasure!

    This thing must definitely be a treasure!

    Chen Yun could identify it immediately, but he didn't know what the function of this treasure was. He could only deduce from the words of Qin Liang and Ji Xin that it might have some suppression effect on yin souls.

    As he was pondering, Qin Liang's anxious voice rang out, "Master, do not get too close. For some reason, the closer I get to this colored light, the more I feel as if it is pulling me out of the condensation pearl and into it."

    Ji Xin also expressed some fear, "Yes, master, this colored light is indeed quite frightening."

    Hearing the two of them speak so ominously, Chen Yun didn't feel anything at all.

    In theory, Qin Liang and Ji Xin hiding in the condensation pearl shouldn't differ much from having a physical body.

    For example, during the time at Cao Cao Temple, they didn't suffer any harm because of the condensation pearl.

    Since there isn't much difference between the condensation pearl and the physical body, and since he had also cultivated the Yin Shen, why couldn't the colored light affect him?

    Chen Yun responded casually with two sentences and secretly pondered, "Could this thing only have an effect on 'spirits'? That is to say, if I can obtain it, I can use it in the future to defeat the physical body of Yin Wuji?"

    Of course, this is just a thought.

    After all, he still didn't know what kind of spirit beast guarded the area near the banner that emitted the colored light.

    Chen Yun decided to try the old method to test it.

    He took out the Chijin Zhantie Sword and released fireballs remotely towards the banner.

    Whizzz.

    A large fireball the size of a soup bowl shot like a lightning bolt.

    Suddenly, a white figure flashed past in front of him.

    The fireball hit the white figure with a sound of "poof".

    However, what surprised Chen Yun was that the fireball exploded into countless sparks all around, but it didn't cause any harm to the white figure.

    Yes, he now clearly saw what kind of spirit beast was ahead.

    It was a monkey that stood about five feet tall, with arms that reached the ground, and its entire body was snow-white without any taint of another color.

    How can Chen Yun determine that the fireball didn't harm the white monkey in any way?

    The main reason was that not even a single hair on the white monkey showed any sign of burning.

    Seeing this white monkey, Ji Xin couldn't help but exclaim, "Long Arm White Ape?"

    Qin Liang seems to be unfamiliar with apes, asking, "What is a Long Arm White Ape?"

    Chen Yun had read about the Long Arm White Ape in books, saying, "Long Arm White Ape is not like other spirit beasts with special power. However, it has copper skin and iron bones, is immune to weapons and fire, and even the law of thunder won't cause any damage when it hits. Most importantly, it has incredibly powerful strength. If a Long Arm White Ape grows for over a hundred years, its single punch can shatter mountains!"

    Qin Liang was greatly surprised and exclaimed, "Is the Long Arm White Ape so powerful?"

    Ji Xin's tone was full of seriousness, "It's not just powerful. Its strength is incredibly powerful, and its movements are as fast as lightning. Moreover, it has copper skin and iron bones, making it almost impossible for ordinary cultivators to defeat it."

    Chen Yun carefully observed the Long Arm White Ape and found that its body was not as large as one hundred zhang tall, as described in the books. He pondered silently, does this mean that the white monkey is still young and not fully grown?

    If it's an adult white monkey, then he would have almost no chance of fighting it evenly.

    However, if it's a young Long Arm White Ape, it may still be possible to fight it.

    Although the Long Arm White Ape is immune to weapons and fire, it is still a "living being" after all. If someone has greater strength, it is still possible to subdue it.

    "I've just completed my accumulation of essence and refinement of the body, and I also have copper skin and iron bones, as well as the strength that can withstand a thousand men. Perhaps I can fight with the white monkey."

    Thinking about it, Chen Yun put the Chijin Zhantie Sword back into his storage ring. The spell is difficult to harm this white ape, so it's better not to waste his energy.

    He put on the tiger skin armor and then looked eagerly at the white ape.

    Perhaps seeing his actions, Ji Xin worriedly said, "Master, are you going to fight it hand-to-hand?"

    Chen Yun nodded and said, "I'm going to fight it with my fists and feet. If I can't beat it, we will immediately turn around and go another way. But if I have the strength to fight back, perhaps I can seize an opportunity to obtain a treasure."

    Ji Xin said, "The colored light is too suppressing for me, Master, you must take on this battle alone. Be very careful not to get injured by it."

    Qin Liang, similarly concerned, said, "Master, be extra careful."

    Chen Yun moved his hands and feet, "I know, you guys can watch the battle from the side."

    Speaking, he slowly approached the white ape.

    Perhaps seeing him walking towards it face-on, invading its territory, the white ape seemed to be somewhat agitated, opening its mouth and making sharp sounds.

    Squeak!

    The monkey's call was sharp, as if warning Chen Yun not to come closer.

    Chen Yun didn't care at all. He walked three steps as if they were two steps, and came to about three meters away from the white ape.

    The white ape, seeing that Chen Yun did not stop warning, raised all of its white hair and lay on the ground. Then, it used its four limbs to push against the ground.

    Boom!

    The ground was directly cracked and broken by it. Countless mud and stone were sprayed into the air!

    Chen Yun only felt an array of white shadows like lightning striking, and he hurriedly raised his hand to strike back.

    But the white monkey moved quickly, easily dodging Chen Yun's attack, and then gave a fierce punch straight into Chen Yun's chest.

    A powerful force rushed out.

    Chen Yun felt as if he had been hit by a heavy truck, flying out violently and crashing hard onto the ground, dragging out a long trench.

    Qin Liang hurriedly said, "Master, are you all right?"

    Chen Yun got up from the ground without a care and dusted off his clothes, laughing, "I have copper skin and iron bones, so this kind of power cannot harm me."

    That punch from the white monkey was indeed powerful, like a heavy truck smashing into him.

    If an ordinary person were to be hit with that punch, they would likely be flattened like a meat cake.

    However, Chen Yun felt that when the power hit him, the "Qi" that filled his whole body became impenetrable, blocking the white ape's incredible strength and preventing it from invading his body.

    Seeing that the white ape couldn't hurt him, Chen Yun's courage grew even more.

    He walked towards the white ape with its teeth bared and its mouth open.

    The white monkey didn't expect Chen Yun to get back up after being hit by a punch, so it stomp broke the ground again and turned into a streak of white shadow to attack him.

    This time, Chen Yun didn't rely solely on his eyes to judge the white monkey's movements; instead, he combined his spiritual awareness with it.

    Soon, he caught the white ape's location and, in an instant, he lifted his leg and kicked out at the oncoming white ape.

    This kick was both fast and powerful, as it swept through the air, seemingly compressing the surrounding air together, forming an "air shield."

    The white ape didn't expect Chen Yun to be able to track its movements so easily. It was in mid-air, and it had nowhere to hide. It could only raise its arms in defense.

    Bang!

    A loud explosion echoed.

    A terrifying energy wave exploded from the point where Chen Yun's leg and the white ape's arms contacted, spreading outwards. Grasses were snapped in half directly, and even large trees shook violently. It can be imagined how terrifying the power was between the two combatants!

    Once the white ape successfully blocked Chen Yun's sweeping attack, it immediately turned around and, with its tail, ferociously slashed towards Chen Yun's face as if it were a razor-sharp knife.

    Chen Yun had no experience in close combat with others, and without expecting it, he was knocked down by the white ape's tail and buried in the earth.

    Ji Xin rushed over and said, "Master, how are you? If it's not possible, let's not provoke it."

    Qin Liang also said, "Yes, this white ape is too ferocious."

    As Chen Yun rolled to avoid the white ape's subsequent attacks, he pushed himself back a few steps with both hands and said confidently, "I was just testing its attacks before. I haven't used my full strength yet. After two exchanges, I think I've got a good grasp of its strength and movements. It's inevitable that it will lose in the next round!"

    That's right. The two exchanges before that, Chen Yun was just testing the strength of the white ape.

    Now that he has figured it out, this white ape's strength might be much stronger than his own physical body. However, Chen Yun is confident enough to say that he can definitely beat the white ape.

    Why?

    Because so far, he hasn't used the Dragon Slaying Technique!

    The Dragon Slaying Technique, when mastered, can even easily slay true dragons!
