Chapter 39: Remember, if you become rich, don’t forget me
At the bottom of the desolate cliff, even the wind carried a chilling cold.
Fu Huaian observed carefully, perceiving any floating mist in the air besides the ground.
But he found nothing, not even a trace of something similar to the remnant soul within his body.
Woosh—
Halfway up the desolate cliff, the ugly gray giant bird continued to cry incessantly.
The three walked slowly, encountering various insects and venomous snakes along the way.
Poisonous creatures ran rampant, with no sign of green vegetation.
A quarter of an hour later.
Fu Huaian's Sword brows furrowed slightly as he looked ahead.
There was no path forward; only a dark, unlit cave entrance lay before them.
His Divine Sense probed into it, but he found nothing, nor could he see the deepest part.
Fu Huaian looked at Ji Nan Yuan beside him.
“Your Majesty, shall we go in and see?”
Ji Nan Yuan's beautiful eyes gazed at him, brimming with light.
“You lead the way. It’s pitch black in there. What if the depths are a huge snake den? Although my cultivation is slightly higher, I’m still afraid…”
Pei Qinghuan blinked her eyes, looking at Fu Huaian, also not wanting to go first.
Fu Huaian felt helpless. As the person with the lowest cultivation among the three, he had no choice but to take the lead.
The cave entrance was not tall, requiring them to bend down to enter. Inside, it was quite narrow, preventing two people from walking side by side.
Fu Huaian condensed a ball of light with Spiritual Qi, clearly illuminating the surroundings.
After walking several tens of meters.
Hiss, hiss—
Fu Huaian’s feet felt a slippery sensation; the ground was covered in black and green venomous snakes. These snakes posed no threat to the three of them.
However, their numbers were truly immense. In the entire cold, damp cave, venomous snakes hung from the ground, the stone walls, and even the ceiling.
Countless venomous snakes hissed incessantly at the three.
Ji Nan Yuan and Pei Qinghuan’s expressions changed, feeling a bit unnerved. They quickly condensed spherical Qi shields and slightly rose on the wind.
Even with their powerful strength, snakes would not threaten them, but seeing this scene up close still instinctively disgusted them.
This was like a Mortal stepping on thousands of maggots…
There was no danger, but who wouldn’t jump?
Fu Huaian condensed a Qi shield and stood at the front alone, his expression solemn. Several venomous snakes were even crawling on his Qi shield.
With a thought, dozens of wisps of Sword Qi appeared around Fu Huaian. He controlled the Sword Qi, slaying snakes along the way, and slowly advanced.
Ji Nan Yuan and Pei Qinghuan blocked the foul smell and quietly followed. For such a minor matter, there was no need for them to act together!
The cave continued downwards into the depths, not a flat cave at the bottom of the cliff.
Half an hour later.
Fu Huaian estimated that the three of them had already descended several hundred meters. This cave was terrifyingly deep!
There was no light here, and strange venomous insects appeared. The snakes also became much larger, with triangular snake heads the size of a fist, thick bodies ten meters long, and slightly crimson vertical pupils!
Fu Huaian looked around, seeing countless crimson dots…
Goodness, how many large venomous snakes must there be!
Fu Huaian felt a bit unnerved at this point. The arrival of the three broke the silence, and the surroundings were filled with noisy hissing.
Ji Nan Yuan’s expression was unpleasant, not because she felt danger, but because it was disgusting to look at!
She waved her jade hand, and the formidable power of the Tai Xu Realm erupted with full force, sending dozens of golden Qi blasts forward!
Boom—
Golden light illuminated the surroundings. Snakes were entangled with each other, and venomous insects crawled frantically.
All the poisonous creatures before them were torn apart, flesh and blood splattering under the golden light. Huge holes were blasted into the stone walls, and碎石 scattered.
With one strike, Ji Nan Yuan directly reduced the crimson light by more than half!
“Fu Huaian, stop dawdling. Just go all out and push forward.”
Ji Nan Yuan was displeased, feeling that staying in such a place for too long would affect her appetite later.
Fu Huaian nodded slightly, drawing the long sword from his waist, and a clear sword light suddenly appeared.
The long sword glowed with a green light, and the Sword Qi was chilling.
Fu Huaian thrust his sword, and the sword body’s green light burst forth with dazzling brilliance. An Azure Dragon of Sword Qi, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, charged straight ahead!
After a tremendous roar, the area ahead was instantly cleared. The boulders collapsed, and the cave became several times wider!
Ji Nan Yuan was astonished. This boy, with his Transcendent Middle Stage cultivation, displayed such powerful strength?
It was already comparable to the strike of a typical Transcendent Perfection.
For the next half an hour.
All three cleared the way with their formidable strength. Ji Nan Yuan’s golden light continuously bloomed, and Fu Huaian and Pei Qinghuan’s twin Dragons converged, advancing at an extremely fast pace!
Hiss, hiss—
After Fu Huaian slayed a giant snake over a hundred meters long, the three had reached the bottom.
The bottom was a regular circular shape, with some orderly but complex patterns on the ground.
Fu Huaian threw the giant snake’s corpse behind him. The Yin Qi here was strangely dense, not like it was naturally formed.
He squatted down, carefully observed the patterns, and then silently stood up.
He couldn’t understand it.
Ji Nan Yuan, having more experience, looked at the patterns and softly said:
“It looks like a formation pattern, but there’s no Spiritual light. I also don’t understand what it’s for.”
Fu Huaian had always known that the remnant soul within his body was a Heavenly Demon remnant soul.
If these were formation patterns, could they possibly be a Seal?
Fu Huaian guessed wildly, feeling a bit heavy-hearted. Ordinary characters wouldn’t require a Seal.
Because ordinary ones would be directly killed.
“Huai’an, look here.”
Pei Qinghuan’s clear call came.
Fu Huaian and Ji Nan Yuan walked over and looked at the spot Pei Qinghuan indicated.
It was a wisp of black smoke floating in the air.
Fu Huaian’s heart skipped a beat. He leaned in to look, but his Divine Sense couldn’t detect any anomaly.
However, that strange black color was consistent with the color of the remnant soul that was once in his Dantian.
Below the three.
A large mass of thick black mist, as if awakened by some reason, surged even more intensely.
Gradually.
The black mist condensed into a human figure, curvaceous, with a face obscured by swirling black smoke, making it unclear.
She seemed to still be in a state of Chaos, not fully awake, merely instinctively manifesting a phantom soul body.
Cave entrance.
Xu Yuqing let out a light chuckle.
“Little Brother Fu, compared to the Karma Pearl, this is the true grand gift!
You must remember this humble Daoist’s kindness in the future. When you become successful, remember to share your wealth and not forget me!”
Xu Yuqing’s Divine Sense could clearly see the three people below, and even penetrate the barrier to see the soul body.
He stretched out his hand, and Dao essence flowed throughout his body.
Fu Huaian was still observing that wisp of black smoke when it suddenly entered his body!
He widened his eyes, startled, and at that exact moment, a strange force descended, instantly shattering the ground beneath the three!
Even with Ji Nan Yuan’s cultivation, she couldn’t foresee this force beforehand, and at this moment, she had no power to resist whatsoever.
The three, along with countless碎石, rapidly fell downwards!
Bang—
Dozens of breaths later, the three hit the bottom.
This height was not enough to injure the three. They abruptly stood up, gathered together, and cautiously investigated their surroundings.
This place was incredibly vast, filled with floating black mist.
Fu Huaian did not detect any danger. He tried to move and found that he could fly, but he couldn’t go higher than fifty meters.
A strange silver light blocked their path, completely preventing them from leaving!
Cave entrance.
Xu Yuqing stood up, a smile on his face.
“Brother Fu, this is all I can do. I can’t let you leave immediately.
With the Karma Pearl on you, you are not at risk, so this humble Daoist will not overdo it and stay here any longer.
You shall stay here for seven days. I look forward to meeting you again in the future.”
Xu Yuqing tore open the Void Realm and vanished in an instant.
