Several more cultivators, unafraid of death, wanted to try, but all ended in failure. Even if they escaped with their lives, their lives were ruined. Because their Qi Seas withered and their Primordial Spirits dissipated, this was difficult to recover from.
Ji Die watched this scene and could not help sighing, “This is the vision of the Red Dust Supreme. Even outstanding talents cannot enter her eyes. She is unwilling to let mortals touch her belongings.”
Ji Die shook her head. Although she wanted the Seven-Colored Demon Spring, it was fine if she could not obtain it. What Ji Die was truly particularly interested in was the Red Dust Female Sage, because beneath the Seven-Colored Demon Spring, there might be secrets regarding the Red Dust Female Sage.
This was what Ji Die was truly interested in, because once the female sage’s secrets emerged, they would absolutely be world-shaking. But she could only sigh, powerless to excavate them. How many people in the world could excavate her secrets?
“What a pity! The brilliance of the female sage’s lifetime might be buried forever!”
Watching yet another extremely powerful cultivator turn into white bones and finally be scattered by the wind, Ye Chu lightly exhaled and strode forward.
“Young Master!” Yang Hui and Yang Ning were startled, grabbing Ye Chu to prevent him from acting recklessly.
Ye Chu smiled and shook his head at the two women, saying, “I will go try!”
“But young master, if you fail, you might…” Yang Hui did not want to see that scene. If he truly failed, his Qi Sea and Primordial Spirit would wither, and that would truly be beyond saving.
“I will not fail!” Ye Chu had confidence in his Primordial Spirit. Protected by the green lotus, and with the Chaos Azure Essence and black iron as well, Ye Chu did not believe that the supreme treasure left by the female sage could completely obliterate his Primordial Spirit.
Ye Jingyun watched Ye Chu grab the nearby rope and jump straight down, her expression also changing greatly.
Ji Die also frowned, gazing at the man before her, both familiar and strange. She saw the green lotus protecting his entire body, with azure light flickering, possessing a strange lustre.
“Green lotus?! Was he not Nine Stars United?” Ji Die was puzzled in her heart. She had seen Ye Chu display the will pattern of Nine Stars United, but had not expected Ye Chu’s will pattern to suddenly transform into a green lotus.
The green lotus trembled. As Ye Chu continuously descended, the green lotus actually maintained its lustre as before. After descending ten metres, it had not been worn away in the slightest.
This result made many people widen their eyes in disbelief. Even Ji Die’s body suddenly tensed up, staring at Ye Chu with some horror.
Ye Chu continued downward, and only then felt a miraculous power. This power truly possessed a kind of law, striking against Ye Chu’s green lotus will pattern, wearing away Ye Chu’s will pattern. Ye Chu’s green lotus dimmed somewhat.
This result did not surprise Ye Chu. Sensing his Primordial Spirit dissipate somewhat, Ye Chu continued walking downward.
The further down he went, the more Ye Chu could feel that heart-pounding law, seeing it repeatedly penetrate and wear away his Primordial Spirit.
Ye Chu continuously went deeper. The green lotus grew increasingly dim. But as it dimmed, the black iron within Ye Chu’s body trembled. Each tremble could stabilise the green lotus somewhat.
Ye Chu’s speed was very fast. In a short time he had descended fifty metres. And at this moment, the green lotus had also dimmed by thirty percent.
Ye Jingyun tightly clenched her fist. She knew Ye Chu’s will pattern and Primordial Spirit were powerful, but facing the items left by the female sage, who could guarantee success? Anyway, Ye Jingyun did not have the slightest confidence in Ye Chu.
Ye Chu’s descending speed was extremely fast. The green lotus had already been worn away by half. Between flickers of azure light, it was dazzling beyond compare.
Ji Die watched this scene and could not help shaking her head. She said to Ye Jingyun, “Have him come up. Being able to reach this step is not bad. However, at this point the green lotus has already been worn away by half. At most he can reach seventy or eighty metres. Any further down and he truly will not be saved!”
Ji Die felt it was a pity. Ye Chu’s talent was not bad, but after this experience, he would have to recover back to the standard of an ordinary person. Unless he could find a divine medicine to restore the Primordial Spirit, but a divine medicine capable of opposing the female sage’s law would probably be hard to find in the entire world.
Ye Jingyun did not listen to Ji Die. Having spent so much time with Ye Chu, she knew Ye Chu’s will pattern was not so simple.
Indeed, Ye Chu’s green lotus bloomed, with a starry sky shining brightly. As the starry sky appeared, Ye Chu’s will pattern increased by a fold out of nowhere. Ye Chu continued downward. The black iron trembled, and streams of patterns merged into the green lotus.
The Chaos Azure Qi also acted as a suppressing force within the green lotus. The green lotus emitted a heart-pounding aura. Within it, various patterns and Dao marks flickered unceasingly, supporting a brilliant void as if gestating all things.
Such a heaven-and-earth phenomenon made many people astonished. One by one they drew in cold breaths. “He is actually an outstanding talent!”
Ji Die was the most unsettled. Compared to the will pattern from last time, this time surprised her even more. Especially that green lotus. Clearly it was only vegetation, yet it could make her feel a kind of extraordinary miracle, as if it formed a world of its own, possessing mysterious and unfathomable laws.
Ye Chu continued deeper within. The will pattern was still continuously wearing away. The will pattern dimmed. Ye Chu felt his Primordial Spirit being severely worn away. That clear, refreshing sensation disappeared completely. Ye Chu’s entire person became muddled and chaotic, his mind unclear.
This was the consequence of Primordial Spirit dissipation. If one’s talent was not strong enough, one’s mind naturally would not be clear.
Just like intelligent people, their minds are generally clearer because their Primordial Spirits are somewhat stronger.
Ye Chu had already reached the distance of eighty metres. There were still twenty metres remaining. At this moment Ye Chu carefully stepped forward. The black iron was trembling intensely at this point. Ye Chu did not dare underestimate it, similarly using Chaos Azure Qi to permeate into his will pattern.
But although the Chaos Azure Qi could slow the wearing away of the strange aura, it could not stop it. However, this was already enough.
Ye Chu’s will pattern had already dissipated until it was dim and without light, as if it might collapse at any moment. At this moment, Ye Chu had already reached the distance of ninety metres.
“Only ten metres left!” Many people exclaimed. One by one they stared blankly at Ye Chu. Reaching this scene was too inconceivable. Before this, not a single person had been able to pass halfway.
Ji Die’s pupils suddenly contracted, her gaze fixed directly on Ye Chu. At this moment Ye Chu had reached ninety metres without perishing. From this point of view, Ye Chu had already surpassed her.
“Ten metres! Only ten metres remain!”
“What a pity! His Primordial Spirit is dim and without light. It might crack at any moment. Once it cracks, how can he withstand that wearing force?”
“If his Primordial Spirit were just a bit stronger, it would be enough to let him truly reach the end and become an absolutely stunning, peerless figure.”
“Ahem…”
Some sighed, some rejoiced. At this moment in the scene, Ye Chu continued forward step by step. His will pattern was like candlelight, ready to crack at any moment.
And at this moment Ye Chu also felt enormous pressure, like Mount Tai pressing down from above, continuously whittling away Ye Chu’s Primordial Spirit. Reaching this level, the pressure was terrifyingly extraordinary, stronger than when numerous cultivators besieged him.
This made Ye Chu’s heart race with fear. Watching the will pattern about to crack, he was also frightened in his heart, afraid his Primordial Spirit could not hold on. Once it could not hold on, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Ye Chu had not expected the female sage’s law power to be so dominant. Even his will pattern had nearly failed to block it. Then what kind of monster was the one who took away the Seven-Colored Demon Spring back then?
Ye Chu gritted his teeth. The black iron trembled even more intensely. Ye Chu also infused the patterns of the Weak Water Clan into the green lotus, biting his teeth and walking downward.
At this moment, only seven metres remained!
