Ye Chu walked up to the Profound Life Realm expert. To him the opponent represented a huge fortune. Ye Chu pressed his finger on the opponent’s forehead and activated the Soul Swallowing Essence Transformation Technique to turn the man’s entire essence into pills.
The remaining few people watched the Profound Life Realm expert under Ye Chu’s hand turn into a dried corpse. One by one they showed terror with pale faces and trembling legs.
Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun did not attack them. He had no interest in these people. Only after several more pills appeared in Ye Chu’s hand did he carefully place the pills into a jade bottle.
“Let’s go.” Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun shot forward into the canyon. Ye Chu wanted to find a spatial device as soon as possible. With such a thing he could do anything more conveniently.
“Who is there?” As Ye Chu walked out of the canyon and was about to cross a stretch of forest a fierce shout rang out beside him. This made Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun’s hearts jump. They were just about to tense their bodies when they saw a woman shoot out from one side.
The woman had a graceful figure, slender and delicate with snow white skin and a touch of ethereal beauty. She leaped out and shot straight towards the source of the shout.
“It is you.” Several people walked out from the forest on the other side and looked at the woman with cold expressions. “Who exactly are you? You have repeatedly opposed our Fire Dragon Sect. You are courting death.”
“You are not qualified to know my identity.” The woman’s voice was very pleasant. Although Ye Chu had not seen her face the back view and voice alone made him feel that this woman would be exceptionally beautiful.
The Fire Dragon Sect cultivators stared at the woman in front of them with flushed faces. This woman had ruined their plans several times. The resources they had found after great effort had been snatched away by her. They had not expected her to come looking for them again this time.
They glanced at the hill behind them. This was a treasure they had found after expending great effort. It was a type of evil object. If they could obtain this evil object it would allow the high level members of their Fire Dragon Sect to temper themselves and increase their strength dramatically.
It was precisely because of this that they had sealed off the area and prevented outsiders from entering. Yet despite being so careful they had still been found by her.
“Damn it.” The few people cursed loudly. “The Fire Dragon Sect has no grudge against you miss. Why are you being so aggressive?”
“You Fire Dragon Sect know what you have done. Humph. I advise you to give up. I want the things here.” The woman’s voice was cold and glamorous.
“Since miss is like this do not blame us for taking action.” The few people finally became furious. Did she really think the Fire Dragon Sect was easy to bully? The Fire Dragon Sect had a notable reputation in the region. Their sect leader had reached the upper level of the Profound Life Realm and possessed great fame. Even the rulers of this area gave them some face yet this woman did not know her place.
The woman did not waste words. She felt extreme disgust towards the Fire Dragon Sect. If not for her limited strength she would have destroyed the Fire Dragon Sect long ago. A sharp sword appeared in her hand and she attacked the few people.
“Stop her. The two senior brothers are harvesting the evil object. Do not let her disturb them.”
The three cultivators saw the woman charging towards them and shouted loudly. They each brandished their weapons and surrounded her in an attack.
“You will not get this evil object.” The sword in the woman’s hand shot out aiming to kill the three.
Ye Chu listened clearly from the side. Upon hearing about the evil object he became excited. An evil object was a great tonic for him. More importantly evil objects could bring the supreme intent under control. This was something Ye Chu had always been searching for.
However evil objects were hard to find and rarely seen even across ten thousand miles. He had not expected one to exist in this mountain.
“Clang clang…”
The woman’s strength was good. She held off three cultivators alone. These three cultivators were very strong far stronger than the one Ye Jingyun had killed by several times.
Ye Jingyun frowned upon seeing this which let Ye Chu understand that these three posed a threat to Ye Jingyun.
However the woman was clearly very strong. She held off the three alone without falling into a disadvantage and was actually stronger by quite a bit.
The woman’s intent was full and agile like a fierce beast shaking. Her intent was extraordinary and could cause the surrounding spiritual energy to surge endlessly.
Every sword strike she made carried charm as if floating immortally yet it was extremely sharp.
“She possesses an intent pattern and it is a fierce beast intent pattern. Moreover her realm is higher than mine.” Ye Jingyun said to Ye Chu. “These three probably cannot stop her.”
The woman suppressed the three. Her long sword danced and forced the three to retreat continuously. Occasionally the tip of her sword could injure them causing blood to drip.
“Can you defeat this woman?” Ye Chu asked Ye Jingyun. “Your intent pattern is stronger than hers.”
Ye Jingyun rolled her eyes and said “My intent pattern is stronger than hers. If we were at the same realm I would naturally not fear her. The problem is her realm is higher than mine. If we fight the probability that I lose is higher.”
“Damn. You are really useless.”
Ye Chu’s curse made Ye Jingyun reach out to pinch his neck. This bastard still had the face to say that? He scolded a woman for being useless yet what use was he as a man? He could not even compare to her and he still had the face to scold her.
“We will sneak in secretly.” Ye Chu could not let go of his desire for the evil object and said to Ye Jingyun.
Ye Jingyun saw the woman and the three Profound Life Realm experts locked in combat. They would not be able to free their hands in a short time. She nodded and carefully walked with Ye Chu towards the hill they had mentioned.
The hill was not high. On top of the hill was a huge green stone with a depression in its centre that was full of moss.
Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun climbed up. Their gazes fell into the depression where they saw two powerful experts violently channeling their power. The violent power carried an astonishing momentum. With each shake there was a rumbling sound that made Ye Chu’s heart tremble.
The violent power of these two was far stronger than that of the three cultivators fighting outside.
“At least the strength of the third to fourth layer of the Profound Life Realm.” Ye Jingyun said to Ye Chu. “Retreat. We cannot provoke them.”
“Senior brother. Be careful there are people outside.”
Just as Ye Chu was about to say something one of the cultivators fighting the woman suddenly shouted loudly. The opponent’s gaze had somehow landed on this side and had just spotted Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun lying on the huge stone.
“Ah…”
The opponent was distracted and was pierced in the arm by the woman’s sword. Blood shot out and his body exploded backwards.
The other two cultivators were alarmed and also saw Ye Jingyun and Ye Chu. They cursed loudly and shouted at the woman “You actually found external help.”
The woman was also stunned. She had not expected anyone to have the same goal as her. However who else in this place would dare to provoke the Fire Dragon Sect?
Although the woman was surprised in her heart her attacks did not weaken. She continued to thrust out strikes with fierce momentum and extraordinary combat power. The advantage of her intent pattern showed as she beat the three until they bled.
Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun on the huge stone heard the opponent’s roar and their expressions also changed. Now that the other side had discovered them here it would probably lead to big trouble.
Just as Ye Chu tensed his body and prepared to face the two cultivators inside the stone he saw that they had not attacked them. This left Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun feeling puzzled.
They cannot spare any attention. Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun tensed their bodies and prepared to defend against possible attacks from the two people inside the stone. However they soon discovered the clue. These two were pouring all their power into suppressing the centre of the green stone.
Their gazes passed the two bodies and saw a dark green plant inside. The plant surged with green light. The light pulsed with chilling horror. The green light was eerie. When Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun looked at it they could feel the coldness within.
This must be the sha object they spoke of. Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun exchanged a glance and instantly understood the identity of the plant.
The two Xuanming Realm cultivators shook with power that turned into long snakes pressing down and contending with the green light of the sha object. Both had flushed faces and gritted teeth as they continuously suppressed the green light.
The violent power of the two was naturally extraordinary and carried the force to shatter hills. Yet the sha qi of the object was equally heart palpitating. As the green light flashed it eroded the cultivators true yuan and spiritual qi. Although its violent power was inferior to the two it still stubbornly resisted their suppression.
Ah.
The two cultivators roared. Their momentum surged another third. Power surged down in vast waves and clashed with the green light. The green light finally dimmed slightly.
Draw in spiritual qi to block the sha object power and seize it. The two cultivators felt equally anxious. They had heard their companions warning. If they did not seize the sha object soon there would be major trouble.
Puchi.
The three cultivators besieging the woman were no match for her and another was beaten until he spat blood.
Hurry and seize the sha object. We cannot hold on much longer. The three shouted desperately as they blocked the woman while being beaten until they bled.
Do you have confidence in blocking one cultivator. Ye Chu asked Ye Jingyun. The Xuanming Realm experts inside the stone were not weak. From the violent power they displayed they had at least peak second layer Xuanming Realm strength or even higher.
Blocking one is not a problem. Ye Jingyun said. But if two attack me together then the odds are against me.
One is enough. Leave the remaining one to me. Ye Chu said to Ye Jingyun. You attack one of them.
Ye Jingyun looked at Ye Chu. Although she did not believe Ye Chu could block one she saw him rush towards the centre of the stone so she could only swing her long sword and attack one of the Xuanming Realm experts.
You rats. How dare you.
The two Xuanming Realm experts roared in fury. They had just used a method to draw spiritual qi and suppress the sha object yet someone had attacked them.
The fierce qi shooting from behind made them roar until their voices grew hoarse. Their eyes turned blood red with full killing intent. The cultivator attacked by Ye Jingyun ignored the sha object grabbed a nearby rock and smashed it viciously towards her.
Ye Jingyun was blocked by the rock and failed to stab the opponent.
However the opponent was disturbed by her sword. The green light immediately surged violently. The power that had been suppressing the green light was completely eroded and vanished without a trace. They were shaken backwards with their blood and qi roiling.
You deserve death. The two Xuanming Realm experts saw their efforts destroyed in an instant. They gnashed their teeth with ferocious expressions and stared fixedly at Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun.
I want this sha object. Ye Chu said while staring at the two. You two seniors should yield it to me.
Then exchange it for your life. The two Xuanming Realm experts roared. They brandished their weapons carrying domineering and vast power as they shot straight towards Ye Chu and Ye Jingyun.
Hold them off for a moment. Ye Chu shouted to Ye Jingyun. Without waiting for her reaction he leaped towards the sha object at the centre of the stone.
Bastard. Ye Jingyun saw Ye Chu abandon her and could not help cursing loudly. Had they not already divided the tasks. One person to block one. Her strength was good but blocking two was impossible.
Both weapons shot towards Ye Jingyun. She dodged awkwardly. Her long sword danced and sent out fierce sword intent to resist the two yet she was forced back step by step with her blood and qi roiling.
That kid is charging towards the sha object. While attacking Ye Jingyun they also saw Ye Chu shooting towards the sha object. This made their actions pause and Ye Jingyun breathed a sigh of relief because of it.
He wants to obtain the sha object but that is wishful thinking. The two cultivators naturally detected Ye Chus goal. Yet even the two of them could not suppress and seize this sha object. If the opponent charged straight in the sha qi would invade his body and he would undoubtedly die.
Clang clang.
On the other side the woman wielded her long sword continuously. Sword light shot out. The three cultivators were beaten until they bled. Their clothes were torn their bodies covered in wounds and their faces filled with terror.
The woman also noticed Ye Chu shooting towards the sha object. Her beautiful eyebrows rose. With one sword she avoided the three and rushed onto the giant stone on the hill.
Ye Jingyun was shaken backwards by one cultivator and staggered with roiling blood and qi. Her long sword danced as she narrowly avoided another cultivators weapon. The situation was extremely dangerous.
Ye Chu. Ye Jingyun shouted. If Ye Chu did not act soon she really could not hold on.
Hold on a little longer. Ye Chu shouted. His figure shot forward rapidly and entered the green light.
Courting death. The cultivators sneered. They thought young people really did not know the height of the heavens or the depth of the earth. Their experience was shallow and they did not even recognise a sha object.
The sha qi entered Ye Chus qi sea just as they imagined. His entire body was wrapped in green light. Everyone originally thought this would be enough to erase Ye Chus life force yet to their surprise the sha qi did not erase his life force. Instead Ye Chus speed increased further and he reached the sha object in an instant.
Sha spirit cultivator. The woman cried out in surprise. Her eyes suddenly showed delight. A sha spirit cultivator who could withstand such sha object attacks must possess incredibly powerful strength.
The Xuanming Realm cultivators also looked dazed with drastic changes in expression. They watched Ye Chu grasp the sha object with one hand and directly pull out the object that had caused them so much headache.
Daring to grasp a sha object with bare hands means at the very least a high grade Xuanming Realm sha spirit cultivator. Everyone cried out in alarm and stared at Ye Chu in a daze. For a moment their attacks stopped abruptly.
Especially the major cultivators attacking Ye Jingyun. Their bodies could not help but shiver. A high grade Xuanming Realm sha spirit cultivator possessed status far above theirs and could even be compared to kings.
That was a person from another level entirely with a vast difference from them. Even the sect leader of their Fire Dragon Sect would have to treat such a figure with utmost respect.
However how could such a person appear here and compete with them for this sha object. This sha object was of great use to them but to a high grade Xuanming Realm sha spirit cultivator it was not worth mentioning.
Ye Chu. Ye Jingyun took advantage of their distraction to escape their encirclement and tried to approach Ye Chu. Yet Ye Chu held the sha object with flowing sha qi so Ye Jingyun dared not get too close. She did not have Ye Chus physique. Sha qi entering her body would be major trouble.
I want this thing. Do any of you want to fight me for it. With the sha object in hand Ye Chu stared at the group and shouted with boundless confidence. Before the sha qi dissipated he feared no one here.
