The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2597 - 2586: Safer with You
Previously on The Strongest Dandy in the City...
After the gates of Eternal City opened autonomously.
An Juncai and Qiu Hao, who had retreated backward, were standing still, not daring to move, as who knew whether danger might suddenly emerge from within the city?
Ye Chenfeng walked steadily toward the city gates, followed closely by Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er.
The two of them could now be certain that Ye Chenfeng had long known there was a hidden formation on the gates, which in their eyes made Ye Chenfeng increasingly mysterious.
Through the gate.
Stepping into Eternal City.
The entire Eternal City was immensely vast, and one could not see its end in a single glance. Ancient-looking buildings stood throughout the city, each radiating with an energy layer.
Suddenly, the space above Eternal City began to churn, splitting open into a massive crack.
A golden coffin emerged from the crack, eventually hovering above Eternal City.
This golden coffin was enormous, with complex carvings etched on its surface.
Fang Duo’er said: "Could this be the coffin of the Eternal Emperor? Is it the remains of the Eternal Emperor lying inside the coffin?"
Although the Spiritual Qi River within his meridians was sealed, Ye Chenfeng’s sense perception remained, and he fixed his gaze tightly on the coffin floating in the sky.
In a certain instant.
His complexion turned extremely pale, with cold sweat beading on his forehead, as he sensed breathing emanating from inside the gigantic golden coffin—there was breathing inside?
Moreover, the moment he sensed the presence of breathing within the golden coffin, an oppressive force swept over his body, making him feel as if he couldn’t breathe properly. Could it be that the person lying in this coffin is indeed the former Eternal Emperor? Is it possible the Eternal Emperor is truly not dead yet?
Starting with the eternal waters from the Eternal River Domain, was this all a setup? Why did the Eternal Emperor arrange for this setup? What exactly is his purpose?
Beside him, Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er felt nothing amiss as their perception was too weak to detect breathing within the golden coffin.
They only noticed the pale look on Ye Chenfeng’s face and inferred that something surely was wrong!
After the golden coffin appeared above Eternal City, An Juncai, Qiu Hao, and others outside the city cautiously walked inside. They first saw the ancient buildings, followed by the golden coffin hovering above.
Each building exuding energy had a unique aura emanating from within, allowing the judgment that each contained treasures.
An Juncai and Qiu Hao diverted their attention from the golden coffin and spread out into the buildings.
Moments later, they emerged one by one, holding various treasures in their hands, ranging from Immortal Artifacts to Supreme Elixirs to powerful cultivation techniques.
Ye Chenfeng watched as An Juncai and others reaped plentiful rewards, feeling the unusual aura on the treasures they held; things weren’t clear to him yet, and he sensed that something was wrong.
Every time the Eternal River Domain opens, only a few people manage to walk out alive; often only one to two survive, indicating something peculiar within Eternal City.
As a peerless expert of the Chaos Era, Ye Chenfeng wasn’t about to be careless. With his Spiritual Qi River and the Space Law here all being restricted, he had to be extra cautious.
He couldn’t be sure if the person lying in the golden coffin was truly the Eternal Emperor, but he was certain that even if the Eternal Emperor were still alive, the current situation wouldn’t be in a favorable state.
"Are you two not going to scavenge for treasures within Eternal City? If you delay further, they’ll claim all the treasures." Ye Chenfeng glanced at Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er beside him and said.
Song Lanruo’s voice turned chill as she replied: "I think it’s safer following you, why don’t you go scavenging?"
Fang Duo’er added: "Don’t think about sending us away; we’re sticking with you."
Ye Chenfeng nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders, once again focusing his gaze on the golden coffin in the sky.
Suddenly, the golden coffin shuddered.
From the golden coffin, a layer of gold dust peeled off and formed words in the space above.
"He who opens the coffin shall receive my Eternal Emperor’s legacy; the key lies within Eternal City."
After these words appeared in the sky,
An Juncai, Qiu Hao, and others, who had been scavenging within the buildings, immediately paused their actions, their expressions turning exceptionally excited.
The legacy of the Eternal Emperor?
It’s the legacy of a mighty figure from the Chaos Era! For them, it’s an absolute fortune capable of shooting them into prominence, a deadly attraction.
A moment later.
An Juncai and Qiu Hao, along with others, started scavenging the buildings even more frantically.
Ye Chenfeng’s brows furrowed even deeper.
Obtaining the Eternal Emperor’s legacy by opening the coffin? From Ye Chenfeng’s view, it was utterly absurd.
If Ye Chenfeng hadn’t discovered the secret within the eternal waters, perhaps he might have believed those words a bit.
But now, he absolutely wouldn’t believe it.
Ignoring An Juncai and others crazily searching for the key to open the coffin, Ye Chenfeng carefully observed the internal structure of the entire Eternal City.
Slowly, he squinted his eyes.
He discovered a secret: the somewhat unorderly arrangement of buildings actually formed a massive formation within the city; no wonder each building had energy emanating from it.
Using buildings to construct a formation was likely something many formation masters couldn’t discern.
Although Ye Chenfeng noticed this, breaking open this formation posed quite a challenge; he couldn’t see through it and had no idea where to start.
Filled with riddles, for Ye Chenfeng, everything was shrouded in mystery. What he most wanted to know was whether the person lying inside the golden coffin was the Eternal Emperor himself?
To unravel the mystery here, the first step was to break the massive formation within Eternal City.
Ye Chenfeng continued to meticulously observe the arrangement of buildings within Eternal City, but the city was too vast; he had to first locate the Array Eyes to have hope of breaking the formation.
Ye Chenfeng began to walk through Eternal City, his brows continuously furrowed as Song Lanruo and Fang Duo’er closely followed him; intuition told them sticking with Ye Chenfeng was surely the right choice, and they didn’t search for the key to open the coffin.
