"This guy is actually one of the weakest in their team. We almost didn’t make it out of here," Mingyi exhaled a long breath.
She was sowhat curious, scrutinizing the Black Frost on Wu Hen’s palm.
This kind of Dark Nether material, although it had similar properties to Yuan You, was purely an energy body.
But it was much more volatile compared to Yuan You. Normally, it couldn’t be directly absorbed by the body like Wu Hen did; it required various experints, refining, filtering, and fusion.
"Thank you, heroine," Wu Hen’s heart was also filled with joy.
Mingyi certainly proved to be a reliable teammate, helping him solve such a big problem.
Once everything cald down, he must invite her to a good al, watch a late-night movie together, and then...
"Quack~~" The human-faced duck had returned to its original sound, seemingly reflecting on why it had spoken human words.
"Get lost, there’s nothing for you here," Mingyi pointed at the human-faced duck, her tone carrying a bit of arrogance.
The human-faced duck seed to have received a great pardon, and without using its wings, it sprinted away on its fur-covered legs toward the far end of the Ancient Relics.
Won are too terrifying!
"They’re coming back. Let’s pretend to leave for now," Wu Hen said.
"I have Yuan You on my hand; we can directly return to Nuwa God End and report the situation," Mingyi suggested.
"Not wise," Wu Hen shook his head.
Indeed, if the two of them crushed Yuan You now, they could return ho directly.
But once he left this host, the fact that poor Chen Qi was lost would be exposed.
Now that Chen Qi was killed and the Dark Nether was stolen, how could they not suspect his identity?
"You’re worried that they’ll know an Awakener stole the Dark Nether and chase us to Nuwa God End?" Mingyi voiced Wu Hen’s concern.
"Yes, I can’t let them guess that my host’s other half of the bloodline cos from Nuwa God End. I need to continue playing this role, and no matter if they plan to conquer our world by force or use a more gentle strategy, staying here allows to gather intel first-hand, making it easier for to escape with my family and you," Wu Hen explained.
Mingyi thought for a mont.
Indeed, Wu Hen continuing with his current identity would be much safer. Leaving abruptly would certainly arouse suspicion.
"Alright then, be careful not to get exposed," Mingyi nodded, agreeing with Wu Hen’s plan.
...
Mingyi found a relatively secluded spot and crushed Yuan You.
Her soul left the Ancient Relics and returned to the Divine Realm of their ho.
Wu Hen and River Girl Qiaqia started to act, appearing as if they had finally captured those natives and were just returning to the cri scene.
At the Red teorite Altar, the first to return was Senior Brother Gu Yue.
He held a chain-like magic weapon in his hand, threading a dozen or so natives together and dragging them roughly to the altar.
"Where’s the Dark Nether!!?"
Gu Yue was furious. He yanked the chain in his hand, brutally tearing those dozen people apart. The sinister and cruel power was like golden lightning, constantly striking the Rock teor Altar.
"Chen Qi, you useless trash!!"
Gu Yue strode forward, his cold eyes scanning the surroundings, looking for clues.
But the destructive power of the Dark Nether Black Frost was also terrifying. It not only turned the flesh and bones of living beings into nutrients for black thorns but also corroded hard objects.
There was no way to identify even Chen Qi’s body at the scene, let alone expect any clues left for investigation.
"There surely are other humans in the Divine Python Land, it’s our carelessness!" said a long-haired, elegant man to comfort himself.
"We should have killed everyone here, natives or not!" Junior Sister Qing ng also agreed that they had been too rciful.
In fact, in the Otherworldly Dust, none of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are reserved for the strong.
Even the lowest level humans, who haven’t awakened their Spiritual Sense, if they can find the different rules, can also seize the rare treasures hidden in the dust.
Indeed, they had been too arrogant and careless.
"We can only retrieve those more fragnted pieces now. It will take more ti," the long-haired man said.
The Dark Nether fragnt that released Black Frost was the largest piece of the Formation’s fragnts. Without it, they had no choice but to collect other scattered fragnts in the Divine Python Earth Vein.
The Great Formation was shattered by the Divine Desolate Ying Snake, and the fragnts scattered across the Earth Vein. They had already been collecting them for so ti. Initially, they thought they could return after retrieving this large piece from the Ancient Relics, but now, they had no choice but to continue searching through the Earth Vein.
Wu Hen stood silently to the side.
To be honest, he was quite worried, fearing that these people might possess so remarkable Divine Skills, capable of reproducing the events that took place here.
But from their conversation, it seed their strength lay in force rather than perception and insight, which did not reach demon-like levels, finally putting Wu Hen’s mind at ease.
Perfect!
He could continue to hide!
They had always looked down on him as a half-blooded nobody, which also ant they never thought he could kill Chen Qi or seize the Dark Nether fragnt that they couldn’t even approach.
...
Collecting the other fragnts was a journey over mountains and valleys.
The Divine Python Earth Vein housed many sinister and bizarre places. Even these self-proclaid Totem Sacred Clan mbers could encounter unexpected events.
For example, in that man-eating canyon, there was also a small Dark Nether fragnt.
Wu Hen was tily in reminding his senior brothers, earning a bit of goodwill and trust.
Afterwards, Wu Hen followed them into a Floating Cave inhabited by a large group of Zhe Lions, each adult possessing strength at the Thunder Bright Realm. When they sward out, even this powerful Holy Sect team lost one or two mbers.
"It seems even cultivators have a high mortality rate in the dust."
Wu Hen observed that these Holy Sect disciples thought highly of themselves. Though powerful and bearing strong Totem Power, the dust was filled with strange laws and inexplicably sinister predators. Without enough experience and caution, they were also bound to die.
Seeing them frequently perish brought a sense of balance to Wu Hen.
Traversing the dust, perception and wisdom were most important. Although strength provided solid protection, it didn’t guarantee invincibility. There were always stronger predators eyeing you!
"Finally, we’ve gathered everything. We can return to report to the Master," Junior Sister Qing ng wiped the sweat from her forehead, pouting like she was about to pout to her senior brother.
"Let’s go back. Everyone has worked hard," Senior Brother Gu Yue smiled.
Gu Yue’s gaze suddenly fell on Wu Hen, and he walked straight toward him.
Taking out a tal furnace, Gu Yue handed the treasure furnace containing all the Dark Nether fragnts to Wu Hen, saying with a smile, "You hold this for your senior brother."
Wu Hen glanced at Gu Yue and noticed that his palm was black, covered with a substance resembling Black Frost, which was eroding his skin.
The Black Frost Energy released by the Dark Nether was still too aggressive. Even sealed inside the treasure furnace, it seeped out that chilling corrosive energy.
"Okay, senior brother," Wu Hen accepted the treasure furnace.
Frowning and grimacing, Wu Hen pretended to be in pain from the cold, but to avoid displease Gu Yue, he forced a smile, "Senior brother, rember to take it back when your hand feels better."
"Hahaha, of course, I wouldn’t let your hand turn to coal!" Gu Yue said.
With Wu Hen carrying the treasure furnace, they began to return to the Barbaric Mountain Range.
On this journey, Little Yi nearly drooled dry!
But Wu Hen repeatedly stressed that Little Yi must control himself this ti.
Senior Brother Gu Yue, though arrogant and overbearing, wasn’t brainless.
He enjoyed bullying and testing weaker junior brothers, which was also his way of testing Wu Hen.
So no matter how much Dark Nether was in that furnace, Wu Hen couldn’t succumb to greed!
...
They arrived at the Sword Peak hanging down.
Climbing down to the mountain base, the gravity of the Divine Python Earth Vein had changed.
Now, climbing from the peak to the horizon felt the sa, and a misstep could send one plunging into the Sky Earth Vein’s valley.
Reaching the Ring-shaped Wilderness Mountain, Wu Hen finally saw the Master.
This Master looked no more than thirty years old with white at his temples, draped in a simple purple robe, looking like an ordinary Taoist in a scenic spot. Read new adventures at empire
But this seemingly unkempt Purple Robed Master floated like a Loose Immortal above the Ring-shaped Mountain Range, releasing star-like ripples that radiated throughout the entire Sky Earth Vein!
Where the star-like ripples passed, the Earth Vein trembled, and enormous mountain peaks sprouted from the ground!
Around the Barbaric Mountain Range, many abrupt rocky sword peaks appeared, so even connected to the Earth Vein, forming majestic sky pillars...
Initially, Wu Hen thought these were natural features of the Divine Python Earth Vein. But they were the divine skill of this Purple Robed Master!
It was he who summoned the Holy Rock from the Earth Vein, creating towering Sword Peaks, Stalactite Spear Mountain, and Canyons, forming a sharp, sky-reaching cage trapping the Divine Desolate Ying Snake in the Barbaric Mountain Range!
Wu Hen not only witnessed the Holy Sect Master’s boundless strength but also saw the true form of the Butterfly Divine Snake...
The reason the Barbaric Mountain Range appeared circular from the human ho was because an ancient mountain range was coiled by an Earth Vein snake, a sight of worldwide wonder!
