A great emperor master every day—the good-for-nothing young master is having a blast!

With a thud, a dark red sphere fell to the ground.

The sound it made was very crisp, like a glass ball.

Upon close inspection, one can clearly see the flow of energy within it.

The sound of the explosion in the air left a deep impression on them.

The dark red sphere lay quietly on the ground, and the four of them stared at it for a long time without making a sound.

Even so, they still dared not make any rash moves.

Jiao Yan glanced at his junior brother standing opposite him and said, "Junior Brother Zhao, go and check on the situation."

The disciple surnamed Zhao shuddered.

In this unknown place, a dark red sphere of unknown origin has fallen, and it even poses a risk of explosion. No matter how you look at it, it is a dangerous item.

"Junior Brother Liu, you go!"

"Brother Jia, you go!"

The blame was passed back and forth, but in the end it still landed on Chen Yue's head.

A straightforward agreement was out of the question; right now, he was just a small vendor selling gas refining materials at the Jiangcheng market.

Who would dare to get so close to something that could explode at any moment?

Chen Yue's face was filled with fear, and his voice trembled as he spoke, "Three brothers, if you don't dare, I certainly don't dare!"

"Otherwise, let that older brother go!"

Chen Yue hesitated before raising his hand and pointing at Jiao Yan, who was standing not far away.

"Don't just stand there, go now!" Jiao Yan's face darkened, and he shouted sharply, a chilling glint flashing in his eyes.

Chen Yue sensed a murderous intent in those eyes.

With no other option, Chen Yue dragged his violently trembling legs and slowly walked towards the source explosion.

With each step they took, Jiao Yan and the other two felt increasingly heavy-hearted, wondering if an explosion might suddenly occur.

Until Chen Yue stood unharmed beside the sphere, he didn't hear a single sound, let alone a sudden explosion.

"They're not even coming; they're quite cautious."

Chen Yue mustered his courage, slowly squatted down, and poked it with his finger.

Upon seeing this, the three gasped simultaneously and quickly hid in a corner.

Junior Brother Zhao shouted, "Brother Jia, are you out of your mind?!"

Chen Yue's actions gradually became bolder, starting from his initial cautiousness.

From gently poking it with their hands to brazenly playing with it.

From Chen Yue's perspective, as long as he doesn't want the source explosion to explode, it will never explode.

However, in the eyes of the other three, Chen Yue's behavior was undoubtedly playing with fire.

With a thud, dozens of source explosions fell to the ground and rolled around like raindrops.

"Won't it...really not explode?" Junior Brother Liu stood motionless, not daring to take a step.

Chen Yue patted his chest, holding two in one hand and playing with them, "Don't worry, don't worry, if it was going to explode, it would have exploded already."

Chen Yue's willingness to risk his life relieved the tension among the three.

With his cultivation at the third level of the Spirit Mansion realm, how could Jiao Yan possibly fear dozens of dark, round spheres?

Even if it really explodes, it definitely won't hurt him.

He slowly squatted down, picked up a dark red sphere, and examined it closely in his palm.

My hands trembled slightly uncontrollably as the ball rolled back and forth in them.

Chen Yue smiled slightly and said in a very low voice, "Explode!"

With a bang, the sphere in Jiao Yan's hand exploded.

Caught completely off guard, Jiao Yan had no time to react and took no defensive measures.

When he looked down, he saw that a hole had been blown into the palm of his right hand.

Jiao Yan stood there for a moment, staring blankly at the injury on his hand.

A deep, unforgettable pain surged up in my heart in an instant.

"Ugh..." Jiao Yan groaned, his expression contorting slightly.

The sudden explosion had startled him.

If he weren't a Spirit Mansion Realm cultivator, his physical strength would far exceed that of ordinary people.

Presumably, that dark red sphere did more than just blast a bloody crater in the hand.

If it were an ordinary person who hadn't even reached the Body Tempering Realm, that explosion would have blown off half their body and killed them instantly.

Moreover, only one exploded; there were at least fifty or sixty more at the scene.

Jiao Yan endured the excruciating pain and used a wisp of his source energy to seal the wound.

"There's something strange about this black ball, everyone throw it away quickly!"

Junior Brother Zhao and Junior Brother Liu had just picked up the two black balls, thinking they should take a closer look and see what they were.

Immediately afterward, a loud bang rang in my ears. Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw that Senior Brother Jiao Yan's right hand had been blown open.

If this is the case for those at the Spirit Mansion Realm, then the injuries they suffer, given their cultivation levels of the sixth and eighth levels of the Qi Condensation Realm respectively, will only be more severe.

Upon hearing their senior brother's warning, the two threw away the black ball they had just picked up without hesitation.

Seeing what the two were doing, Chen Yue stopped playing with the Source Explosion and promptly threw it away.

"call--"

"Luckily, mine didn't explode."

Junior Brother Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help feeling a lingering fear when he thought about the explosion.

Jiao Yan glanced at the black spheres on the ground with lingering fear and said in a deep voice, "What is the pattern of these black spheres' explosions, or did they trigger some kind of opportunity?"

"The first to touch the black ball were Brother Jia, followed by Junior Brother Zhao and Junior Brother Liu. None of the three of you had any accidents."

"I made the final touch, but the black ball exploded in my hand."

Jiao Yan pondered the reason behind the incident, but he couldn't understand why the black ball suddenly exploded in his hand.

Seeing Jiao Yan's worried expression, Chen Yue thought to himself, "Don't think about it, there's no pattern to it."

With a thought, a source explosion that had been quietly waiting in the corner suddenly exploded.

This time, no one approached, and no one reached out to touch it.

But why did it suddenly explode? They didn't even move this time.

Jiao Yan is completely baffled. Could it be that the black ball's explosion is entirely dependent on its mood?

At this point, Jiao Yan realized that he had actually guessed one thing correctly.

It does indeed depend on his mood, but specifically on Chen Yue's mood.

"Brother Jia, have you discovered anything?"

Jiao Yan stared directly at Chen Yue, her tone questioning him.

Chen Yue pretended to be stupid and acted dumb. What could a small vendor selling refining materials know?

"Any discoveries...?"

Chen Yue drew out the last syllable, deliberately pretending to be deep in thought.

After glancing at the source explosion on the ground and then at the injury on Jiao Yan's hand, he finally came to a conclusion:

Chen Yue blinked and said sincerely, "Brother Jiao, I didn't find anything!"

Although he lied, his sincere expression was enough.

After all, sincerity is the ultimate weapon!

"It doesn't seem like he's lying, so never mind."

Jiao Yan looked at Chen Yue's sincere face and thought to himself.

They didn't place any hope in Chen Yue, and their junior brothers Zhao and Liu weren't very bright either.

So, the only reliable person in the whole place was himself.

The entire room fell silent; no one knew what to do next.

If you can't figure out the pattern of the black ball's explosion, even the slightest movement could lead to a dead end.

"It's so quiet... it's no fun."

Chen Yue broke the deadlock first, with dozens of sharp, thick, dark red ice spikes hanging high in the air, just like the source explosion earlier.
