Divine God Against The Heavens

_The first spatial zone inside the mountain_

No Blood Coffin could be seen here anymore. And from the looks of the surroundings, traces of an intense battle could be seen here.

Obviously, all of them had been taken care of by Fatty Zhang.

Suddenly, Ye Xiao rushed out from the fading whirlpool and took a deep breath. He looked at the surroundings and was shocked. He couldn't help but admire Fatty Zhang's strength.

"It looks like Fatty Zhang is really not an ordinary person. Even with my current strength, I'll have some trouble dealing with these Sky Ghosts. However, Zhang Tao was able to deal with all of them. It looks like Zhang Tao is at least a Ninth Stage Martial God Realm martial artist."

Ye Xiao knew that, although he took advantage of the sudden appearance of Zhang Tao and escaped and Zhang Tao must be angered to the extreme because of him, he could still escape alive from the encirclement of those Sky Ghosts. So, he started waiting for the fatty to come out.

"Heaven Stealing Clan... What kind of clan is this?" Ye Xiao suddenly remembered something, took out the Golden Hoe, and muttered in a low voice. He didn't know anything about this clan and had never heard of it. But it seems that this clan is not simple at all.

Zhang Tao was from the Heaven Stealing Clan and he actually knew about Sky Ghosts.

It has to be known that Sky Ghosts were actually the people from Sky Ghost Race when this race was still bustling in the Heavens. For some reason, the corpses of the people of the Sky Ghosts were sealed inside the coffin on this mountain. Ye Xiao had already guessed that it must be because they wanted to protect the Mysterious Book from falling into wrong hands. Or maybe, they didn't want the Mysterious Book to fall into anyone's hand.

Well, it looks like something must have happened to the Sky Ghost Race before the Ancient God of this race left his inheritance here. This Ancient City and the events that Ye Xiao just went through, he knew this place is definitely not as simple as the ground of inheritance left behind by the Ancient God of the Sky Ghost Clan.

.....

"Ah!"

About an hour later, a miserable cry was heard. Then, with a bang, Fatty Zhang finally rushed out from a newly appeared vortex in the air. Well, he fell out of the vortex and crashed onto the ground. A dull sound was heard, and a big pit was created on the ground.

"Brother Zhang, are you still alive?" Ye Xiao looked at the deep crater and asked with a worried expression. Of course, he was just acting.

"Damn you! I treated like my brother but look, what have you done!" Fatty Zhang got up angrily and glared at Ye Xiao.

"You are fine, I am relieved now." Ye Xiao ignored the words of Zhang Tao and said with a 'worried' look on his face.

"Ye Xiao, tell me, how did you get in here?" Fatty Zhang suddenly thought of something and asked with a frown on his face.

"Of course, I followed your instructions and dug all the way here."

"Bullshit! How can you be faster than me by just digging the walls of the mountain?"

"Oh, it's like this. I used the Golden Hoe you gave me to dig. I felt that the speed was too slow, so I used a bit of my strength to open the tunnel. That's why I was a little faster." Ye Xiao replied with a smile on his face.

Fatty Zhang's face twitched as he said, "How did you break the wall of this mountain? I've clearly checked previously. This Mountain's walls are too sturdy. No martial artist below Martial God Realm could break the wall. You are just a Martial King, how did you do that?"

"Maybe, I was lucky." Ye Xiao said, still maintaining the same smile on his face.

"Bullshit luck! Only a fool will believe you!" Zhang Tao felt like his heart was in his mouth. He took deep breaths to suppress his emotions and changed his question, saying, "Do you know that you almost caused my death just now? You swaggered in and woke up the slumbering Sky Ghosts here. After I came in, I was caught off guard by these Sky Ghosts. I fought against those Sky Ghosts with my life on the line and finally managed to enter the second spatial zone. However, as soon as I entered, I was once again attacked by the Sky Ghosts who were even stronger than the Sky Ghosts in this spatial zone. And you... You took advantage of the fact that the Sky Ghosts were attracted to me and escaped alone, leaving me behind to deal with those Sky Ghosts. Do you even know how powerful those Sky Ghosts were? If I wouldn't have found a way out, I would have definitely died there!"

"Sigh! Zhang Tao, believe me, I didn't want this to happen either. But after I came in, I was attacked by the Sky Ghosts. What could have I done? As for escaping alone and leaving you behind, it is because I believed in your strength. I knew you could easily escape from Sky Ghosts, and look, you are here. I was right after all." Ye Xiao pretended to be honest and said with a pitiful look on his face, making Zhang Tao grit his teeth and gnash them. He wanted to beat up Ye Xiao to a pulp but still managed to stay calm, for the current situation and place was not right to be overwhelmed by emotions.

"Forget it. I won't bother you with these things. Hurry up and take out the things you just got from the Second Spatial Zone." Zhang Tao urged Ye Xiao.

"Alright." Ye Xiao said decisively. Then, with a wave of his hand, a large pile of exquisite objects such as jade pendants, fragments of weapons, and complete but rusty weapons flew out from the Spatial Ring.

"Is that all?" Fatty Zhang looked at Ye Xiao with a questioning look after seeing the things Ye Xiao had thrown out of his spatial ring. He couldn't believe Ye Xiao only got these things from the Second Spatial Zone.

Ye Xiao nodded his head and said with certainty, "Yes."

"How is that possible? There must be a real treasure in the second Spatial Zone. If you hadn't touched the Treasure there, how could the Sky Ghosts in the second Spatial Zone awaken so quickly? Brother Ye, oh Brother Ye, I trust you so much and treat you as my real brother. And you are lying to me. You have really hurt my feelings!"

"Do you know? You woke up all these Sky Ghosts, causing me to use up all the life-saving treasures. I almost lost my life there. Why are you trying to trick me?"

"Hurry up and take out the good stuff that you got. We'll split it equally!" Zhang Tao said with a pained expression, but also somewhat impatient.

"Brother Zhang, I really don't know what you're talking about." Ye Xiao also revealed a doubtful look as he looked at the fatty. He was definitely not going to take out the Mysterious Book.

And as he has expected, this fatty seems to know a lot about the Sky Ghosts. He even knew that as long as he wouldn't have taken the treasure, the Sky Ghosts of the second Spatial Zone wouldn't have awakened and attacked.

"Alright, Brother Ye, stop pretending. Hurry up and take out the treasure, we have to split the good stuff equally."

However, no matter what Fatty Zhang said, Ye Xiao insisted that there was nothing!

"Brother Ye, what you did really hurt me. Do you want us brothers to become enemies because of this?" Fatty Zhang gritted his teeth and said.

Ye Xiao looked distressed and replied, "Brother Zhang, do you really not want to believe me? You are too suspicious. I really don't want our friendship to be destroyed by your suspicion just like that."

"You... Ye Xiao, are you telling the truth or not?"

Fatty Zhang was so angry that he could not say anything else. He pointed at Ye Xiao and shouted.

"Brother Zhang, you have been blinded by your greed. If you are still unwilling to believe me, I can do nothing about this." Ye Xiao said solemnly while showing a disappointed expression on his face.

Fatty Zhang was so angry that he almost vomited out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing Fatty's face, Ye Xiao was laughing in his heart. But he still maintained the disappointed expression on his face. Suddenly, he showed a look of realization and said, "Brother Zhang, didn't you tell me that I must have taken the treasure which caused the Sky Ghosts to awaken and attack?"

Zhang Tao frowned his brows as he looked at Ye Xiao. He didn't know what Ye Xiao was up to now, but he nodded his head and said, "Yes!"
