BXBX NOVEL Chapter 979: What A Pity!
Ye Chen’s true strength was far beyond the saint king realm, whereas she was much weaker. Logically speaking, as long as she was within a hundred meters of Ye Chen, he would be able to detect her presence.
However, she had appeared out of the blue, which likely meant that she had a treasure that allowed her to hide her aura.
“You can’t take this thing. The energy inside is too violent. Master said that even a Supreme Emperor realm expert might not be able to handle it, let alone you.”
“My Senior Sister discovered this thing back then and accidentally consumed it. Master tried everything he could to save her, but he still couldn’t. I don’t want you to end up like she did.”
The young girl blinked her eyes innocently, but her expression was serious.
Ye Chen knew that she was not lying. He had a good impression of this young woman, but unfortunately, this kind of person was only suitable to live here in the Blood Spirit Secret Realm.
Once she left the Blood Spirit Secret Realm, the scheming that happened in the Kunlun Mountains would overwhelm her and likely cause her demise.
He did not reply. Instead, he asked Xue Qiye, “Senior, is this thing really that dangerous? Can I handle it?”
“She’s right,” Xue Qiye smiled coldly as he said, “Ordinary Supreme Emperor realm cultivators wouldn’t be able to handle it, but you can. However, you can only take one mouthful. If you take too much, your body and bloodline will not be able to withstand it!”
“Also, after you consume it, you must immediately use your full power to protect your mind. Otherwise, even the heavens won’t be able to save you!”
After Ye Chen received Xue Qiye’s confirmation, he looked at the young woman and said, “Miss, I appreciate your kindness. However, I still want to try it. Even if I explode and die, it has nothing to do with you!”
The young woman saw the certainty in Ye Chen’s eyes and knew that it was useless to persuade him.
Moreover, she had only just met this young man. The life and death of this person had nothing to do with her.
Her master had also asked her many times to be careful around people, as being too kind to the wrong people would only harm oneself.
“It’s up to you then!”
The young woman turned around, somewhat displeased. Her gaze fell on the injured Shi Zun.
This fellow that her master had warned her to be wary of now had no ability to resist at all.
Shi Zun also noticed the young woman. It sneered, “Little girl, it seems like you know a lot about the Stone-Spirit Calabash. However, some people are as dumb as a rock, like this reckless brat. Ridiculous!”
The woman rolled her eyes at Shi Zun, “Why are you chiming in now? If you were at your peak, I might be afraid of you, but now you need at least a hundred years to recover. It’s impossible for you to kill anyone during this time. I think you should take care of yourself first!”
Shi Zun was stunned. It never expected the other party to be able to tell the time it needed to recover so quickly.
“You’re from the Holy Herb Valley!” It suddenly noticed the scent of herbs from the woman and immediately recalled something and exclaimed, “I’m definitely right! You smell exactly like that old woman!”
When she heard the words ‘Holy Herb Valley’, her soft eyes turned cold.
Then, she opened her hand and a ray of light shot out. A silver needle shot directly into Shi Zun’s huge mouth, and exploded inside, forming an ancient rune.
It completely sealed its mouth!
Shi Zun fell silent. It wanted to speak, but soon realized that it was impossible!
“I’m not going to kill you!” The young woman placed her hands behind her back and said arrogantly, “Although I can’t kill you with my strength, I can still silence you for a hundred years!”
Ye Chen, who was holding the Stone-Spirit Calabash, naturally noticed everything that happened between the young woman and Shi Zun, and belatedly realized that he had underestimated her.
The silver needles that she had used were not ordinary.
It seemed that the Holy Herb Valley was a well-known force in the Blood Spirit Secret Realm.
As for the master behind the young woman, she was probably not a kind person either. Otherwise, the young woman’s origins would not have shocked Shi Zun so much.
Her gaze fell on Ye Chen again. “You’re Ye Chen, right? Since you’re so determined to try, I won’t stop you.”
“On account of the deal you made with me, after you die, I’ll erect a tombstone for you. It can also be considered as a home for you after you die.”
After she finished speaking, she leaned against the wall and took out a leaf from her storage space. She put it in her mouth and closed her eyes, as if she would not interfere in anything else.
Ye Chen ignored her and sat down cross-legged. He glanced at the Stone-Spirit Calabash in his hand and opened it.
Dense spiritual energy instantly overflowed out of it, so much so that the entire cave seemed to be surrounded by spiritual energy.
“This Stone-Spirit Calabash is also an opportunity for me in the Blood Spirit Secret Realm. Whether it’s to fight the Han Family or the battle with Mr. Jing Shui in a month, I must increase my strength! The Blood Spirit Secret Realm is the perfect place to accomplish this.”
“Furthermore, the key to understanding more about the Samsara Graveyard and the hundred ancient mighty experts lies with the Blood Spirit Clan. I must be powerful enough to pry the information from their hands!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chen raised his head and lifted the Stone-Spirit Calabash, and a mouthful of golden liquid entered his body, coursing through it.
Ye Chen thought that there was still time to compose himself. However, the moment the liquid entered his body, it burned like lava.
He could not even breathe.
It was only then that Ye Chen remembered the young woman’s advice. If even a Supreme Emperor realm expert could not withstand it, then it was bound to be difficult and dangerous.
Ye Chen’s face was ferocious and he groaned in pain.
He felt as if his body was about to explode at any moment!
The burning sensation in Ye Chen’s body caused his clothes to burn into ashes, leaving his upper body bare.
However, on his body, there were now cracks that looked like magma was about to gush out. It was a shocking sight.
Furthermore, his face was also the same. He looked like a walking volcano!
The young woman leaning against the cave heard Ye Chen’s groans and opened her eyes. When she saw Ye Chen’s pained expression, she shook her head helplessly. “You chose this path yourself. Your condition is worse than my Senior Sister’s. I don’t think you can last for more than a minute.”
“Sigh, what a pity. When the food from the outside world is finished, I will probably have to eat medicinal herbs again. I haven’t really eaten enough.”
“I thought that I would have the chance to visit the outside world in the future, but now it seems that the only person I know from the outside world is going to die here. What a pity.”
The girl sighed and chose to close her eyes.
She did not like blood, and did not want to see Ye Chen die in front of her.
In the distance, Shi Zun’s eyes were filled with disdain. Although it could not speak, it was sneering in his heart!
“Foolish humans, this ancient treasure is not something meant for you lowly creatures to devour and enjoy!”
