Chapter 1350
The plot to kill the enemy is finally fulfilled
The next moment, Ye Yang was about to manipulate the light of his swords to completely annihilate the fragments that the three Star Bone Beasts had turned into.
Just now.
Suddenly, a wave of aged and urgent divine thought emanated from his sleeve.
"Fellow Daoist, hold your hand!"
It was the voice of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast.
With a thought, Ye Yang's sharp sword energy and blade light vanished instantly.
"Fellow Daoist, these monsters are ferocious creatures; keeping them alive may cause future trouble!"
"Fellow Daoist, you are unaware of this."
"This thing is called the Star Beast. It is not a real living being, but a special existence formed by the fusion of the core fragments of a fallen star and the resentment of the ancient ferocious beast."
"Although its body is filled with violent and malevolent energy, its essence is the purest power of the stars. If I could devour and refine it, it would be a great tonic for an old beast like me!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yang suddenly realized what was going on.
He then examined the fragments closely and indeed found that in addition to the swirling black mist, there were also wisps of extremely pure silver light flowing within them.
It shares the same origin as the aura within this mine, but is even more condensed.
"I see."
Ye Yang nodded without further hesitation. With a wave of his sleeve, a gentle force swept up all the fragments of star debris on the ground and suspended them in mid-air.
"In that case, I'll leave these to you, fellow Daoist."
"Thank you very much, young master!"
The Xuanwu Sacred Beast expressed its gratitude, and the next moment, a beam of light flew out from Ye Yang's sleeve, transforming into a Xuanwu phantom about ten feet in size.
It opened its huge mouth and inhaled sharply.
The countless fragments of star debris floating in the sky, like rivers flowing into the sea, transformed into a silver-black torrent, which it swallowed whole.
"Buzz!"
Soon, the phantom of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast emitted a loud buzzing sound, and its body surface shimmered with light.
Countless mysterious runes lit up and disappeared on its tortoise shell, clearly indicating that it was refining the enormous energy with all its might.
Ye Yang stood quietly to the side, watching the aura of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast rise at a visible speed.
I was also happy for him.
The stronger the Xuanwu Sacred Beast is, the greater its assistance to him.
Thinking of this, a thought struck him, and his gaze swept over the bag full of treasures he had just acquired in his storage bag.
"Since the origin of the Star Beast is of great benefit to you, fellow Daoist, these treasures of the same origin must be even more effective."
Ye Yang was not a stingy person. The Xuanwu Sacred Beast told him all about the inheritance of the Xuanwu Sacred Sect and even helped him obtain the inheritance of the Immortal Fixing Technique.
At crucial times, he naturally wouldn't hold back.
The next moment, he immediately took out several fist-sized pieces of Star Essence Gold and Star Core Fragments and presented them to the Xuanwu Sacred Beast.
"Fellow Daoist, take these as well and refine them as well."
The Xuanwu Sacred Beast, which was refining the star remains with its eyes closed, suddenly opened its eyes.
“Fellow Daoist, these are far too precious! These are excellent materials for refining a meridian-suppressing treasure. It would be a waste for me to consume and refine them…”
"It's alright."
Ye Yang waved his hand.
"No matter how good a treasure is, it is only useful if it can be converted into strength."
“I already have the Dragon Abyss Sword and the Evil King Blade, so I don’t need these materials for the time being. However, if you, my fellow Daoist, can use these to recover some of your strength, our journey will be much more secure.”
As the Xuanwu Sacred Beast looked at Ye Yang, a warm feeling welled up in its heart.
It stopped being pretentious, gave Ye Yang a deep look, and said in a deep voice.
"I will forever remember your great kindness, fellow Daoist!"
Having said that, it opened its mouth again and swallowed all the star gold and star core fragments.
"Boom!"
This time, the energy fluctuations erupting from the Xuanwu Sacred Beast far surpassed those before.
The phantom behind it began to expand violently, growing wildly from about ten feet in size to ten feet, then twenty feet...
In the end, it transformed into a colossal creature that stood tall and imposing, almost bursting the entire mine nest apart.
Intense starlight burst forth from its body, illuminating the entire mine nest as bright as day.
The runes on the tortoise shell no longer flickered, but transformed into dazzling galaxies, flowing slowly and exuding a powerful aura that suppressed the heavens.
Ye Yang could clearly sense that the aura of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast was rising steadily.
"Not enough..."
Ye Yang muttered to himself as he took out that incomparably precious Primordial Star Essence!
"Primordial Star Essence?!"
The Xuanwu Sacred Beast let out a roar of utter terror, its voice filled with wild joy.
It never expected that Ye Yang would be willing to share such a legendary divine object with it!
This is a treasure that can transform one's Dao foundation and nourish the origin of one's soul!
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to overthink it. This Star Ruins Ancient Road is extremely dangerous. The more strength you have, the more secure you'll be. Please accept it and don't refuse."
After saying that, he pondered for a moment, then separated one-third of the Primordial Star Marrow and sent it to the Xuanwu Sacred Beast.
"This, this..."
The Xuanwu Sacred Beast was completely stunned.
The Primordial Star Marrow is so precious that even cultivators at the Mahayana Realm would fight tooth and nail for it.
Ye Yang was willing to give away one-third of it.
"To possess all such divine objects would be a waste of resources and excessive greed. I have already obtained most of them; that is enough."
"If you are truly grateful, your assistance in my ascension to immortality will be the best way to repay this debt."
Upon hearing this, the Xuanwu Sacred Beast no longer refused and nodded.
Before it could think any further, the Primordial Star Essence had already merged into its divine soul origin.
"Roar!"
A sound, seemingly from the primordial era, resounded throughout the entire mine.
The massive body of the Xuanwu Sacred Beast trembled violently, and the silvery-white starlight emanating from its body was no longer mixed with strands of dazzling divine radiance!
Its aura instantly broke through a bottleneck and reached a whole new level.
Although he did not break through the realm
However, the solidity of its aura and the vastness of its power are already comparable to those of top experts in the late stage of the Thunder Tribulation Dao Realm!
Its enormous body slowly shrank, eventually shrinking back to about a foot in size and hovering in front of Ye Yang.
At this moment, it was completely different from before. On the tortoise shell, the Milky Way swirled, resembling a real star map.
"Thank you so much, fellow Daoist, for saving my life!"
Ye Yang smiled slightly, about to speak, but at the same time, both he and the Xuanwu Sacred Beast changed their expressions and suddenly looked up at the outside of the mine nest.
The moment the Xuanwu Sacred Beast broke through its barrier.
A chilling, violent aura, filled with endless bloodshed and resentment, clung to the area like a maggot, penetrating through layers of spatial turbulence and silently enveloping it.
"Such keen senses, such an evil aura!"
The Xuanwu Sacred Beast's voice deepened, and its eyes revealed a murderous intent.
"An uninvited guest has arrived, and he's up to no good!"
Ye Yang's expression instantly turned cold.
He was familiar with this aura.
A flash of silver light appeared in his eyes, and the Immortal-Stabilizing Technique quietly began to operate.
The space before him seemed to become transparent, and he pierced through the layers of spatial turbulence, allowing the outside world to be clearly reflected in his mind.
A hundred miles outside the mine, a figure clad in a blood-red robe and enveloped in a dense sea of blood was suspended in the void.
His face was gaunt, his eyes bloodshot, and he stared greedily and warily in the direction of the mine.
"Blood Demon Lord!"
A cold glint flashed in Ye Yang's eyes.
This person was the same demonic giant who led the demonic cultivators to besiege him, and was later severely injured by him and the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal!
Unexpectedly, he also came to this Star Ruins Ancient City.
Moreover, it seems that it was attracted by the energy fluctuations when the Xuanwu Sacred Beast broke through.
Enemy road is narrow!
The Xuanwu Sacred Beast also sensed the identity of the newcomer.
"Fellow Daoist, we let him escape back then, but I never expected him to deliver himself to our doorstep today. This scoundrel must not be allowed to live!"
Ye Yang wholeheartedly agreed.
Blood Demon Lord is a ruthless and vengeful man.
Now that we have encountered him today, if we do not eliminate him completely, he will surely become a major threat in the future.
However, the opponent is also a powerful expert in the late stage of the lightning tribulation, with unpredictable blood magic spells. Even if he wins in a head-on confrontation, he will probably have to pay a considerable price.
It might even attract other prying eyes.
“Fellow Daoist, this place is full of spatial turbulence, making it an excellent hunting ground.”
Ye Yang quickly came up with a solution, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.
The Xuanwu Sacred Beast chuckled.
"Fellow Daoist, are you planning to... trick him?"
"Exactly."
"Since he came because of the unusual activity at this mine, he must believe that a great treasure has been unearthed inside. Let's turn the tables and set a trap so that he won't leave alive!"
The man and the beast exchanged a glance, both seeing a chilling killing intent in each other's eyes.
Once the plan was set, action was taken immediately.
Ye Yang first made some arrangements inside the mine, deliberately scattering several pieces of low-quality Star Essence Gold and Star Core fragments on the ground.
He then channeled his Dao power, stirring up the stellar energy within the mine nest into chaos, creating the illusion that a fierce battle had just taken place and most of the treasures had been stolen.
Having done all this, he sat cross-legged on a boulder, concealing most of his aura.
The Xuanwu Sacred Beast swayed slightly, and the next moment its massive body flashed with light, perfectly merging with the inner wall of the surrounding mine.
Whether it's the color, texture, or scent, there's nothing wrong with it.
If one did not know beforehand, even if Ye Yang scanned the area with his divine sense, it would be difficult to discover any clues.
With everything prepared, the entire mine nest fell into a deathly silence.
Outside the mine, the Blood Demon Lord lingered for a moment, a hint of greed and struggle flashing in his blood-red eyes.
The burst of pure and vast stellar power just now, though only for a brief moment, gave him an unprecedented sense of allure.
He was certain that there must be an extraordinary treasure deep within that spatial turbulence!
However, the Star Ruins Ancient Road is extremely dangerous, and the spatial turbulence in this area is incredibly violent, so he dared not venture into the danger lightly.
But in the end, greed for the treasure triumphed over reason.
"Fortune favors the bold! If I were to miss such an opportunity, I would surely regret it for the rest of my life!"
A hint of madness flashed in the Blood Demon Lord's eyes, and the sea of blood around him surged, transforming into a blood-red shield that firmly protected him.
He formed hand seals and chanted incantations, and streaks of blood-red runes flew out, forcefully carving a path in front of him.
They carefully moved towards the direction of the mine.
Ye Yang used the Immortal Fixation Technique to see the Blood Demon Lord's every move clearly.
The fish has taken the bait.
"boom!"
Finally, after a loud bang, the Blood Demon Lord paid a heavy price to successfully tear through the last spatial barrier outside the mine nest and stumbled in, looking disheveled.
As soon as he entered the mine, he was shocked by the rich aura of stellar origin before him. His blood-red pupils suddenly contracted, and his breathing became rapid.
"This is truly a treasure land!"
He greedily scanned his surroundings and soon spotted the scattered Star Essence Gold and Star Core fragments on the ground, his eyes burning with even greater greed.
His gaze then fell on Ye Yang, who was sitting cross-legged and looking listless.
"It's you?!"
When Blood Demon Lord saw Ye Yang's face clearly, he was first stunned, then let out a burst of wildly joyful laughter.
"Hahaha! Ye Yang! It's like finding a needle in a haystack!"
"I was just worried about not being able to find you to avenge that sneak attack, but I didn't expect you to deliver yourself to my doorstep, and even seriously injured! It seems that even the heavens are on my side!"
In his view, Ye Yang must have been injured in the battle with the monster guarding the place, which allowed him to gain such a huge advantage.
Slay this fiend and seize the treasure!
Upon thinking of this, the Blood Demon Lord could no longer suppress the murderous intent and greed in his heart.
A raging sea of blood surrounded him, transforming into a ferocious, blood-red giant claw that slashed down at Ye Yang, who was recovering from his injuries! (End of Chapter)
