Chapter 643: Shi Tianhao Reveals Escape Route
Ti passed, bit by bit.
The divine shadow celestial sap within the pit grew thinner and thinner.
Until finally, the celestial sap completely vanished.
All of its strange fire energy was absorbed by Shen Mo and stored within his divine palace.
This energy would, under his control, steadily and relentlessly burn the manifestation.
Until the mont one hundred Dao patterns were forged.
"Whew..."
Shen Mo let out a slow breath and stood up from the pit.
Though the burning of the Xibaiyu manifestation had lasted only a little over three hours, it had produced twelve Dao patterns.
It clearly showed the potency of the divine shadow celestial sap.
"Ti to leave."
"At this mont, Shi Tianhao should be encountering Hu Xinyue, right?"
Shen Mo gave a faint smile.
"Perhaps, as fate predicted, he will develop greed toward the Zesheng she holds in her arms."
Head held high, Shen Mo strode toward the cave entrance.
At that mont, outside the cave—
Hu Xinyue was watching the newcor with great caution.
She recognized the figure.
Back in the Dragon Tomb, when the Great Demon Emperor had crawled out of the underground fissure and severely injured Yue Xinglou, this man had taken advantage of Yue Xinglou’s weakened state to sever his hand and snatch the golden page.
Amidst the chaos, he also stole the final supre sacred artifact—the Mustard Dragon Scale Robe.
She had seen it all clearly.
At the ti, she had found this man’s appearance familiar and had thought he might be trustworthy.
But after that incident, she imdiately branded him in her heart as "not to be associated with."
Now, seeing him again—
Naturally, she remained on high alert.
Fearing he might harbor evil intent and try sothing against her.
Shi Tianhao, seeing Hu Xinyue’s guarded expression, could only offer an awkward smile.
"Don’t co any closer," Hu Xinyue growled.
Shi Tianhao cleared his throat. "Saintess of the Heavenly Fox Clan, I an you no harm. We can completely travel together."
Hu Xinyue shook her head. "I already have a companion."
Shi Tianhao said earnestly, "I know how to get out of this abyss. I doubt your companion knows the way."
Hu Xinyue looked at him with surprise.
A way out?
Shi Tianhao looked rather pleased with himself.
The thod of escape he had learned from the mories of the Great Demon Emperor.
This abyss was not naturally ford.
When the Supre Cangqing had constructed the Jade Bridge, he had excavated a trench—but nothing so deep.
The reason it had beco so deep and bottomless, like the Abyss of Nine Netherworlds,
was because the corpse of the demon sovereign, Shiluan, had slowly corroded the ground over countless ages.
As a subordinate of Shiluan, the Great Demon Emperor naturally knew how to escape.
Now, Shi Tianhao was sharing the escape route with Hu Xinyue not out of pure kindness, but because of her identity.
She was the Saintess of the Heavenly Fox Clan, one of the three sacred clans of the Blood God Demon Court!
If he saved her, wouldn’t the Blood God Demon Court owe him a favor?
With that favor, everything would be easier in the future.
"You really know the way out? I’m warning you—don’t lie to ."
"I have a Soul Jade on . If I die, my mother will imdiately know who the killer is. If you dare to harm , she’ll hunt you down to the ends of the earth."
Hu Xinyue warned sternly,
even invoking her mother—the current clan leader of the Heavenly Fox Clan.
Shi Tianhao nodded confidently. "Of course. I swear it on my honor!"
Hu Xinyue considered for a mont before nodding. "The three of us can leave together. Let’s wait for him."
Just then, from above—
A corpse suddenly fell from the sky.
It landed far from the two of them.
But splattering flesh and bone fragnts swept through the air.
A shard of bone pierced straight through Hu Xinyue’s cheek, instantly causing blood to pour out.
She cried out and quickly covered her face.
A small white beast peeked out from her arms and gently licked the wound with its tongue, healing it at remarkable speed.
This scene was seen clearly by the watching Shi Tianhao.
Shi Tianhao was inwardly shaken.
Just a bit of saliva had such miraculous effects?
That gaping wound healed within just a few breaths!
It had to be understood—Nirvana-stage cultivators weren’t ordinary mortals.
The energy required to recover from injury was astronomical.
For Nirvana cultivators known for their blood vitality, a single drop of their blood could equal the life essence of a commoner.
And yet, this saliva alone could trigger such healing?
It was proof enough of the creature’s extraordinary nature.
Shi Tianhao couldn’t help but glance several more tis at the pure-white little beast.
If its saliva could heal wounds, then what about its blood? Its tendons and bones?
Wouldn’t those be even stronger?
If he could ta this rare beast and keep it by his side, it would be like having a portable spring of blood essence.
If he ever got injured, he could simply cut off a piece of at and heal instantly!
The more Shi Tianhao thought about it, the more tempted he beca.
He had already started calculating how to snatch the pure-white beast from Hu Xinyue.
In his eyes, it wouldn’t be difficult.
Hu Xinyue wasn’t the scheming type. A few subtle tricks would surely be enough to deceive her thoroughly—
And then, the pure-white beast would be his.
Just then, Shen Mo stepped out from the cave.
Hu Xinyue saw him and imdiately let out a sigh of relief. "You’re finally out."
Shi Tianhao, on the other hand, looked as if he had seen a ghost.
Why are you everywhere?!
Stay away from !
Shen Mo smiled. "Fellow Daoist Hao, we et again."
Shi Tianhao forced a smile. "Yes... here we are again."
Shen Mo half-smiled. "Severing Yue Xinglou’s arm and snatching the Mustard Dragon Scale Robe... Quite the bold move, Fellow Daoist."
"Let offer you a bit of news—Yue Xinglou is dead."
"I wonder how the Heavenly Talisman Sect will react when they hear about it."
Shi Tianhao’s hair stood on end.
This was what he feared most.
He hadn’t killed Yue Xinglou directly, but the man was already gravely injured.
By severing his arm, Shi Tianhao had effectively delivered the final blow.
The Heavenly Talisman Sect was a righteous sect, but it was also known for its vengeance.
As soone with no background or backing, he was the easiest target for their retribution.
That was precisely why he had tried to curry favor with Hu Xinyue earlier.
After all, Hu Xinyue represented the Blood God Demon Court—one of the top five powers in the Southern Archipelago.
If he could gain their protection, he wouldn’t need to fear the Heavenly Talisman Sect’s wrath.
"Thank you for the warning, Daoist Shen," Shi Tianhao said, forcing a cupped-fist salute, his heart uneasy.
Shen Mo had left a deep psychological mark on him.
Now, he didn’t even dare et his eyes.
Hu Xinyue pulled Shen Mo aside and whispered, "He says he knows the way out. The three of us could move together."
"Daoist Shen, what do you think?"
Hu Xinyue instinctively felt Shen Mo was more discerning than herself.
Leaving the decision to him might be the wiser choice.
Shen Mo certainly knew Shi Tianhao had a way out.
But still, he put on a surprised face. "He knows the way out? I think it could be a trap."
"But he does seem very confident," Hu Xinyue whispered. "And I have a Soul Jade on —if he dares harm , my mother will hunt him to the ends of the earth."
As she spoke, she glanced at Shen Mo deliberately, as if warning him as well.
Shen Mo chuckled silently to himself but didn’t show it on his face. "Since that’s the case, there’s no harm in traveling together."
