Chapter 47: The Little Thief, Add Oil!

  Regarding Yueyang's crazy move of using a Thorn Flower to go to the Star Domain for a trial mission, all the warriors in the Mercenary Guild started betting.

  If Yueyang can successfully clear the level with Thorn Flower, the odds of that happening are one in ten thousand.

  However, no one dared to bet.

  Because everyone is not a fool, everyone would rather throw gold coins into the stormy sea than to bet on this crazy move that will never succeed. As for the successful trial, no one can make a bet, even if the odds are as high as 100:1 with no loss; thirdly, Yueyang persisted in the trial process for more than ten minutes, and the odds also reached 50:1. Yueyang looked very envious, but the Mercenary Guild forbade him from betting as the person involved, making Yueyang sigh that he didn't have a lucky fate to get rich.

  If he is allowed to bet, then classmate Yueyang will definitely put all his money on the one-in-ten-thousand chance of successfully passing the trial, and in the blink of an eye, he can become a millionaire!

  "Who says he can't last ten minutes? I have a way!" Ye Kong said, and everyone was stunned at first, then reacted.

  "You're crazy too!" Some people directly determined that Ye Kong was also crazy.

  "Unbelievable, are you going to let him challenge the 'Twenty Palaces of the Yellow Way'? My god, is there anything more insane in this world? I thought it was crazy enough when I wrote a letter to the princess proposing marriage back then, but I didn't expect that there would be someone even crazier and more reckless than me..." A mercenary captain muttered to himself, his wine cup somehow falling to the ground.

  "I'd rather go steal dragon eggs than challenge the Yellow Emperor's Twelve Palaces!" A thief had a look on his face that said 'whoever forces me to take on this challenge will make me kill myself'.

  "Is the Yellow Way Twelve Palaces very scary?" YUE Yang classmates understanding of the Yellow Way Twelve Palaces is limited to Saint Fighters, knowing that the Yellow Way Twelve Palaces are guarded by twelve golden saints. Does this first floor of Tongtian Tower's Yellow Way Twelve Palaces also have Golden Saints inside?

  "Frightening? How can you describe it as frightening? That's terrifying, utterly terrifying!" Countless warriors fainted at Yueyang's question.

  "Huh?" Yueyang thought, there shouldn't be a real Golden Saint Warrior inside, right?

  Here is the translation:

  "Let's put it this way, the Twelve Palaces of the Yellow Way are a golden-level continuous quest within the Star Domain. Because you need to clear all twelve levels, that's why they're called the Twelve Palaces of the Yellow Way. This golden-level continuous quest is the most difficult part of the first floor of the Tower of Heaven, and no one has ever completed it! Also, because those above level five are forbidden from entering the Star Domain, throughout history, no one has been able to complete the Twelve Palaces of the Yellow Way below level five. The highest record in human history was set a thousand years ago by an unnamed warrior who reached the ninth level, which is also the pinnacle of humanity's achievements. No one has ever been able to surpass this feat.

  In the past thousand years, the highest record for clearing levels is five, and in the past hundred years, it's three. In recent decades, no one has even been able to clear the first level... The Twelve Palaces of the Yellow Way have a golden king beast guarding each level, and ordinary battle beasts are so scared they can't move when they see it, let alone defeat the powerful golden king beast and pass the level!"

  When Ye Kong mentioned the golden king beast, his lips trembled involuntarily. Yue Yang suddenly realized that this guy had attempted to challenge the Twelve Palaces of the Yellow Way two years ago with great fanfare but ended up suffering a crushing defeat, which is why he's been so down in the dumps until now.

  "Then why did you just say you had a way?" Yueshang was surprised.

  "It's like this, within the star domain, warriors can't attack with their own hands, they must use contract beasts to fight. However, when a warrior enters the Yellow Way Twelve Palaces, the Guardian Law will grant the challenger an absolute defense shield, just like the one summoned by the Treasure Canon. It won't disappear for ten minutes. If you go in, at least the first ten minutes are safe, but remember, when the shield starts to flash, it means there's not much time left, and you must leave immediately, otherwise you'll be killed instantly by the Golden King Beast!" Ye Kong's intention was actually to let Yue Yang take a look inside, so he wouldn't be bored waiting outside.

  Anyway, Yue Bing still has three days before he comes out of the 'Blackstone Labyrinth', now let him go to the Yellow Dao Twelve Palaces to find excitement and play a thrilling game.

  As for the cost of at least one gold coin per challenge, Ye Kong didn't worry about it for the sake of Yue Yang, a child from one of the four major families.

  Yueyang's classmate heard that he couldn't take action personally, and felt a little regretful. His innate broken body and formless sword energy seemed to be useless after all. However, he still had Xiao Wenli, Man Niu Yingzi, and Huang Jin Ci Hua, so even if he couldn't defeat the Golden King Beast, he believed that retreating wholeheartedly shouldn't be a problem.

  As for Hui Tai Lang, it's nothing but a errand boy who lures monsters, when the real fight begins, it has no place in it!

  Ye Kong suggested leaving Hui Tai Lang behind, as it was only a Bronze-grade Iron Backbone Wolf and would definitely be instantly killed by the Golden King Beast inside. Even if it wasn't instantly killed, without a contract, it would betray them anyway.

  "Never mind the thorny flowers, this war beast can have as many as it wants, how many thorny flowers can you summon at once?" Ye Kong asked finally.

  "One summon." Yueyang had leveled up after his previous battle with Hell's King Hades, rising to mid-tier novice apprentice, but even high-tier novice apprentices could only summon one beast per day. There was no exception for Yueyang. As for Yueyang's answer, Ye Kong felt that he shouldn't have asked, because the third young master of the Yue family was a well-known waste in the entire Dragon and Phoenix Continent!

  "Using a single Thorn Flower to challenge the Twelve Palaces of the Yellow Way? I must still be dreaming!" Many mercenaries thought they were hallucinating.

  "Don't waste money anymore, why not use this money to treat everyone to a drink instead!" someone suggested.

  "Really going?" Ye Kong felt that with the absolute defense cloak, Yue Yang might not be in mortal danger, but he was worried that he would let the Golden King Beast scare him to death.

  "Cut the crap, let's go!" Yueshang classmate is playing with his heart racing. Without saying anything else, just looking at the name "Huang Dao Twelve Palaces", he wants to go and challenge it. Although the guardians inside are not the Golden Saints, but they are also the Golden King Beasts, which is equally thrilling!

  After paying the necessary transmission fee, the transmission entered an unknown vast star domain space.

  In this star domain, the space is forever night, no day, and no sun... At the entrance of the Twelve Palaces challenge, a golden armored guard captain's eyes widened: "Aren't you guys messing around? A new apprentice wants to challenge the Twelve Palaces? Do you know how many monsters are inside? Not to mention the Golden King beasts in each level, even the guardian war dolls and magic spring monsters in each palace have dozens or hundreds of them. Are you all full and bored with nothing to do? Can this be challenged so casually?"

  Next to the Golden Armor Captain, a brocade-clad beauty with three-tailed snow fox by her side laughed heartily without regard for her demeanor: "If I didn't think this was an extremely foolish move, just talking about your bravery, it's quite unexpected, truly fearless due to ignorance! Young man, I support you, you must work hard and charge through the 12 levels!"

  Her words made Captain Jinya roll his eyes: "Lord of Luohua City, don't make a mess anymore!"

  "Sorry, I forgot what your job is. Okay, I won't encourage him to challenge the Yellow Way Twelve Palaces... my previous words are withdrawn... little thief, do you have enough money for the challenge fee? If not, I can lend you some, but interest will be charged!" The beautiful woman in brocade laughed so hard that her body shook, and she even paid the fee for Yueshan's group. Later, when she heard that only Yueshan was challenging, she laughed again: "No problem, I've already paid for five people, you can challenge five times in a row. Don't worry about the interest, I'm very patient, you can pay me back slowly... but remember to challenge five times, okay? Do you know the technique for challenging the levels? If not, don't worry, I'll teach you. The first level is the White Sheep Palace, where the Golden King Beast... ah, it's been replaced this month, now it's a three-headed Chimera. Don't look down on it just because it's a golden six-level three-headed Chimera, but it's still relatively easy to deal with. First, kill all the sheep-like warriors in front of the temple, then eliminate a group of sheep-headed monsters, not many, probably only tens, all around bronze level 3... very easy to deal with. When you enter the main hall, you'll see the three-headed Chimera. Don't panic, just turn left, there's a small side hall, kill all the sheep-headed priests inside, and get the Silence Scepter that can control the left head of the three-headed Chimera... now the left head is useless. Then go to the right side hall and get a Blindness Stone, which can be used three times... after that, the right head will also be blind... then you can let your beast fight the middle head... what's your beast?"

  "Thistle!" Yueshang classmate replied very honestly.

  The "Fallen Flower City Master" beauty in brocade clothing was stunned for a few seconds, then regained her composure and gave Yueyang a thumbs up: "Your war beast is not bad, using Stinging Flower to challenge the Huang Dao Twelve Palaces is the most creative idea! Hmm, you can let Stinging Flower swallow the three-headed Qimera alive, I remember that Stinging Flower has a necrophagy ability. By the way, what level is your Stinging Flower?"

  "First rank!" As soon as Yue Yang said it, the entire Golden Armor Squad fell to the ground.

  "This is a bit difficult, but I still support you as always. You have to have confidence in yourself! You can do it, little thief, come on!" The beautiful woman in brocade clothes patted Yuyang's shoulder with her small hand, generously encouraging him.

  "Alright, Grey Wolf, let's go!" Yuyang classmate heard that there was a special prop to restrain the Golden King Beast inside, and his confidence surged.

  "The Lord of Luohua City, you're pushing him to his death! He's definitely going to die!" The Golden Armor Captain gazed weakly at the confident figure of Yueyang walking towards the transmission gate.
