Chapter 69: Abyss of Death

The Giant Spirit Scholar, Yin Wind Swordsman, bronze masked old man, and Purple Lightning Young Master, were all well known strong people, the cultivators that dared come explore this ruins, were all people that had a bit of self confidence.

After entering the ten thousand corpse ancient tomb, not only would they be placed under the suppression of the ancient tomb, traps, demons and ghosts, and other cultivators would all need to be guarded against.

The ten thousand corpse ancient tomb was a dangerous closed environment, what happened inside no one could expect.

The difficulty of this treasure hunt would not be low!

Cai Die followed beside Chu Tian, she was comforting him in a low voice, "Lu Ren, don't be angry, Yun Yao is not an average person and her background is very powerful, you can't go against her."

Chu Tian gave a relaxed smile, as if he did not care about it, "Don't worry, my brain is very clear, I know what I should do."

Cai Die was relieved when she heard this.

Although she did not know this youth for long, but Cai Die could feel his attitude, this person was crazy to the bones, so she was afraid of what he would do.

Yun Yao was born in the Central State Yun Family.

The Central State Four Families, Chu, Luo, Ye, and Yun, not a single one was weak!

To oppose the Purple Lightning Young Master for a small matter, it was not sane, even if he wasn't killed by Yun Yao, annoying this large family, he could give up on a single safe day from now on.

What Cai Die didn't know was.

Chu Tian was not afraid of trouble, out of the Four Great Families he had already offended three of them, an extra Yun Family did not matter.

Around two hours passed.

The main hall began to rumble.

The eight armed statue that was standing in the middle of the hall, suddenly slowly opened its eyes, a vast formidable aura shot up into the sky.

Everyone was shaking with excitement!

It was what they had been waiting for!

"The Eight Armed Demon's eyes are open, the ten thousand corpse ancient tomb is now open!" The bronze masked old man had been waiting for this moment, he immediately stood up, "Everyone, we opened the gates together, as for the treasures inside, whoever has the ability will get them, what do you think about that?"

The Purple Lightning Young Master let out a snort, "Why are you still standing there, quickly make a move!"

Several cultivators with profound cultivation bases, began to release spirit energy at the same time, only feeling a faint vibration coming from the ground, countless serpent like runes lit up the floor, gathering at the end of the hall.

A ten meter high beast head was imbedded into the wall of the main hall, when the spirit energy instill itself inside. The originally metallic animal head, suddenly came to life, it opened its large mouth, a deep bottomless purple tunnel appeared in its mouth.

An ancient aura of death slowly filled the air.

The ancient tomb was open!

The cultivators in the audience cheered!

The Giant Spirit Scholar's heart was the most anxious, holding the ancient tomb token in his hand, he directly walked in. He was enveloped in a purple glow and his person immediately vanished.

"The ancient tomb is open!"

"Everyone charge!"

Everyone walked into the glowing door.

The ghost masked old man looked at Chu Tian and said, "This is the entrance of the ancient tomb, after we enter this door, we'll be sent to a random place on the first floor of the ancient tomb."

Chu Tian's brows wrinkled, "Random transportation?"

"That's right, random transportation." The bronze masked old man paused before continuing, "The ancient tomb's first floor is the Abyss of Death!"

Chu Tian asked, "What kind of place is the Abyss of Death?"

"From what we know, the astral wind in the Abyss of Death is very strong, the longer you stay, the easier it is for you to be hit with it. You must be careful, do not get blown into the abyss, otherwise you'll never be able to return. The Abyss of Death's level of danger is normal, but there will occasionally be things that appear that will be so enticing people can't resist. Be sure to remember, even if it is enticing, do not try to get it."

Chu Tian remembered.

"After you pass the Abyss of Death, you'll enter the second floor, the Wraith Palace!"

"There are fierce spirit attacks in the Wraith Palace, the level of danger is also normal, but in the past years the ancient tomb has opened, several weak small cultivators have died there. The cultivators had died but their souls had not dispersed, after changing into resentful spirits, they feel an extreme hate towards cultivators who came seeking treasures, so that causes the level of danger to multiply!"

Cai Die knit her brows as if she was worried about something, "How do we deal with this?"

The bronze masked old man said, "Do not take treasures from the palace, quickly move through, do not stay long! Remember, the longer you stay, the easier it is to be affected by the spirits! Go as fast as you can through this floor!"

"The third floor?"

"After passing the first two floors, then you entered into the true ten thousand corpse ancient tomb, we will regroup on the third floor."

Cai Die excitedly said, "Then let's go!"

"Hold on a minute." Chu Tian opened his talisman pocket and took out a talisman, "This is a level 1 light talisman, you hold on to this, use it in critical moments to break through evil spirits, you hold onto this just in case."

Cai Die revealed a face of gratitude, "Thank you!"

Chu Tian slightly nodded his head.

Although he did not know Cai Die for long, but she was a partner he went through thick and thin with, so he should take care of her.

Cai Die's cultivation was not strong, but the ancient tomb sealed cultivation, so everyone would be below the Awakened Soul Realm, the spirits would not be that much stronger. Cai Die had a high grade spirit weapon and adding on the level 1 talisman, she would be safe.

"Go!"

The two of them held their ancient tomb token as they walked into the glowing door.

In an instant, their surrounding changed, the view and sound, all disappeared, the temperature dropped by 10 degrees, as their view became dim and dark.

This was a dark space of emptiness!

Profound and mysterious, open and deadly silent, enough to inspire the ancient fear of all men.

Chu Tian felt under his feet, it felt like a boat floating in water, because Chu Tian was standing on a black stone platform, under it was a deep bottomless abyss!

Looking into the distance, were thousands of stone platforms, the height was randomly distributed, it created a long path, the end of which could not be seen.

Was this an illusion technique?

Chu Tian closed his eyes to open his Mind's Eye.

The illusion technique was too large, the Mind's Eye range was limited, he could not find any flaws.

Strong, strong, the realistic illusion unified perfectly, the designer of this ten thousand corpse ancient tomb, was definitely a master of array formations.

"This is the legendary Abyss of Death!"

"Everyone be careful not to fall into the abyss on the sides!"

"Accidentally falling down, you will be immediately swallowed by the abyss, your soul will be forever imprisoned in this ancient tomb, no hope of ever reincarnated!"

Everyone had just adapted to the circumstance, as they were just about to proceed, from the endless void, an ice cold astral wind suddenly erupted. The astral wind had a great strength, even a cow would be blown over!

Several youths could not react in time, they were blown off the stone platform.

"Ah!"

"Help me!"

"Please save me!"

The youth's four limbs thrashed wildly, they could not grab onto the stone platform, falling into the abyss and their pitiful cry suddenly stopped.

Gone!

A lively person was gone just like that!

As if they had never existed!

Everyone hurried to protect their body with spirit energy to block the astral wind, to avoid being blown into the abyss. This place was too frightening, accidentally falling, beyond redemption, it made people's hearts tremble, it seemed it would be better to not stay for long!

Chu Tian was stepping on a stone platform, slowly going forward.

"Everyone look!"

"There are Source Energy Crystal Stones!

"There are so many Source Energy Crystal Stones!"

A few people with surprised faces were shouting, everyone's attention was attracted, floating around the sides of the road, countless Crystal Stones floated in the void, giving off a seductive glow.

Source Stones!

It was all Source Stones!

Hundred upon thousands, it was enough for even Awakened Soul Realm Cultivators to go mad for!

A low grade spirit stone could trade for at least 10000 gold coins, this many spirit stones could be worth around several tens of millions of gold coins!

Astonishing great wealth?

Even Chu Tian felt a little agitated!

But the bronze masked old man had warned Chu Tian, the Abyss of Death will show many enticements, most of them cannot be obtained, if he acted rashly, he would die.

Although money was attractive.

His life was still the most important!

Chu Tian hardened his heart and continued moving forward.

At this time another person shouted out with a face of excitement, "There are many treasures in front!"

Treasures?

Chu Tian raised his head to look.

There was an ancient plain bronze mirror, it was blown from the void by astral winds, the surface of it was covered in Runes with profound meaning, it looked like a very strong treasure!

It was only around 30 meters away!

Many people felt the impulse to take the risk!

The treasures in the surroundings increased, a cold bright treasured sword, a blood red treasured sabre, a bright gold threaded armour…..there were too many treasures here!

Were they left by treasure hunters, or did they come from the ancient tomb?

In short, they were all spirit level equipments, not a single one failed to make people's blood boil in excitement!

Chu Tian was not affected, the treasure was definitely attractive, but he had to be alive to take them. These treasures were only regular spirit level things, even if the value was high, it was still limited, it was not worth taking the risk.

The wind from both sides was too strong!

If one went into them, they would be blown away!

Chu Tian continued to walk forward and the surrounding treasures became more attractive.

One cultivator said with red eyes, "Pure Yin Grass! Unexpectedly there is Pure Yin Grass here!"

Some broken debris emerged from the void, each with a diameter of several meters, floating like small stones, various heaven and earth treasures growing on them.

The Pure Yin Grass was a very precious treasure!

When the cultivators saw on the small island, there grew dense amounts of the Pure Yin Grass and the island was tens of meters wide, they went crazy with excitement.

"With the Pure Yin Grass's support, I can refine extreme Yin Sword Qi!"

"When everyone's at the same level, who can block me!"

"This is mine, no one can steal from me!"

A cultivator roared in a low voice, white spirit energy glow came from his body, suddenly leaping forward, right for the island covered in Pure Yin Grass.

10 zhang! (3.33 meters)

9 zhang!

8 zhang!

The spirit energy on his body slowly dissipated!

Because the further from the stone platform, the stronger the astral winds are, with his peak 9th Body Refinement Layer cultivation, how could he block such strong astral winds?

Around the time he was 5 zhang away, the spirit energy covering his body was dying like a candle, finally it was blown away.

"No! NO!"

The cultivator screamed in panic, wanting to turn back, but as expected the astral winds covered his body, instantly blowing him away and not leaving a trace, in the darkness only a pitiful cry remained.

This cultivator's pitiful condition, was like cold water splashed on everyone else's ambitions.

Hard!

Too hard!

Countless treasures, but wanting to obtain them was easier said then done?

Chu Tian's eyes flashed, he was using his Mind's Eye, it let him observe the changes in the astral wind. The astral wind had a rule, in a certain period of time it would be at its strongest, but then it would become weak.

If he made a move when the astral wind was weak, would he have a chance then?

Everyone continued walking forward, several more tragedies took place, it would always be a cultivator trying to obtain a treasure and then being blown away by the astral win. And there was a single person who had reached his destination and grabbed the treasure, but was blown away when he tried to come back.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh with regret!

The Abyss of Death, it really was place that ate people and didn't even spit out their bones!

It stimulated people's greed and then guided them to death!

Chu Tian was critically watching the whole time, he firmly believed there was a rule to the astral wind!

There was a way!

There had to be a way!

This time another little island appeared, the island was covered in a blue herb, there was also a stone table and on top of the stone table was a jade bottle and a ring.

It was around 7 zhang away!

The transparent bottle was filled with a revitalizing energy, even though it was far away, it could make people feel their bodies shake, even quickly healing the small injuries on their bodies.

The plain ring was filled with a sharp aura, it was obviously a very strong treasure.

The blue herbs, was filled with an attractive aura.

Even the simplest herbs, if grown for hundreds or thousands of years, the could also become elixir rank treasures, the entire small island was completely covered in blue herbs!

How could people not be excited?

This was a huge opportunity!

At this time, the astral wind had blown at peak strength, it was at its weakest now, Chu Tian already knew the rules of the astral wind.

This was a good chance!

Taking a few steps forward and leaping off the stone platform road, entering the endless void and flying toward the small island.

Chapter 70: Successfully obtaining the treasure

Everyone was shocked.

There was still someone who was seeking death!

Did this little brat not want his life?

Everyone stopped in their tracks, their eyes looking in pity at another one who couldn't withstand the enticement, a fool who took the initiative to kill himself.

Chu Tian had just jumped off the floating stone road, his body was instantly covered in starlight, all around him a bone chilling astral wind suddenly slammed against him, just like knife and nails, constantly hitting his body, the starlight started to scatter and the glow slowly became weaker.

Such strong astral wind!

Ordinary flesh and blood bodies in this ferocious environment, perhaps they would be instantly torn to pieces, even with the Starlight Immortal Body, Chu Tian still felt quite a bit of strain.

Although the astral winds were small, they were still sharp.

Was this also a trap?

If they didn't practice a strong enough defense cultivation technique, even if the person figured out the rule behind the astral winds and took the risk jumping out, they would have died without knowing how they died!

But, astral winds with this kind of intensity, Chu Tian could still withstand, so without holding back anything, he rushed at full speed toward the little island.

5 meters, 4 meters, 3 meters, 2 meters, 1 meter

While Chu Tian felt that his Starlight Immortal Body was reaching its limit, with a peng sound, he landed on the island, the surrounding became loose and the astral wind cutting his body, suddenly stopped.

Succeeded!

He really succeeded!

The cultivators on the road stared with wide eyes, this brat had braved the astral winds and actually landed on the small island!

Chu Tian knew that time was of the essence, he rushed over to the stone table, without even looking, he grabbed the jade bottle and the ring and placed them in his chest.

Other than the two treasures, the small island was covered in thousand year old elixirs, the lowest would still be several hundred. If he could bring them with him, then it would be an astonishing amount of wealth!

Hu, hu, hu!

The astral wind surrounding the island became sharper.

The astral wind was slowly gaining strength.

Not good!

There was no time left!

Chu Tian pulled out a few herbs and stuffed them into his chest, the starlight condensed around his body, once again forming the immortal armor.

With a low grunt!

Just like a large roc spreading its wings, he jumped high once again, flying right for the floating road.

From jumping out to jumping back, the whole process only lasted several seconds, the strength of the astral wind had doubled and was still increasing.

Ping, ping!

Countless invisible wind blades cut across Chu Tian's body creating a large crack!

3 meters, 2 meters, 1 meter!

When Chu Tian was right about to return to the road, the Starlight Immortal Body crumbled and Chu Tian's body was sliced by the astral wind, leaving 5-6 deep wounds.

If it was a normal person, their minds would have been in chaos and would have fell into the bottomless abyss. But Chu Tian was unmoved, he maintained his forward momentum with his spirit energy, in this dangerous situation, he finally landed back down on the floating road.

Chu Tian let out a long breath of relief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, he looked out into the darkness right at the unceasing wild astral winds, "That was really dangerous, if I was a little slow, perhaps I would be unable to ever reincarnate."

No matter what.

At least the things were in his hands!

Chu Tian took out the things from his chest, his lips turned into a smile of satisfaction. Perhaps up until now, he was the only person that had ever gotten a treasure from this land of death.

What kind of herb was this?

From its aura and quality, it was undoubtedly a thousand year old herb. Regardless of whether it was an ordinary herb or not, as long is it was a thousand year old it would be an elixir, could encounter but could not beg, it was enough to make cultivators to want to steal it.

Chu Tian placed the herb before his nose and sniffed it.

A surge of refined qi flooded into his body, restoring a portion of the spirit energy Chu Tian had consumed.

Chu Tian's eyes lit up…..it was a thousand year Yuan Essence Grass!

Yuan Essence Grass was a very common consumable item, it was used to refine spirit energy recovery medicine. Consumption of spirit energy was one of the key factors in deciding victory, having a type of medicine that can restore spirit energy was equal to having a second life!

Thousand year old Yuan Essence Grass

How effective of a medicine would it be?

Even if a small piece was eaten raw, it would be enough to completely restore one's spirit energy and can increase cultivation base without any side effects!

With several thousand year old Yuan Source Grass in his hand, as long as the enemy was not overwhelmingly strong, even if he fought multiple enemies or was sieged, Chu Tian had the power to preserve his life!

Not bad, really not bad!

Those Yin Wind Swordsman, Giant Spirit Scholar, Purple Lightning Young Master, even if they were powerful outside, if they met Chu Tian inside this ancient tomb, it wasn't certain they would be able to defeat Chu Tian.

These Yuan Essence Grass could let Chu Tian go all out, without ever worrying about his spirit energy consumption!

What was in the jade bottle?

Right as Chu Tian pulled out the jade bottle, an enticing fragrance wafted out, in the jar was a glowing liquid…..This was Life Essence Water!

An entire spring of life would only be able to refine a few drops of Life Essence Water!

This water was a miracle cure, a person on the verge of death, as long as they still had a breath, they would be able to come back to life. Of course this did not apply for cultivators beyond the Awakened Soul Realm.

A bottle of miracle cure?

No!

It wasn't only that!

Chu Tian discovered that the jade bottle itself was not simple, it shouldn't only be a container, when he carefully looked underneath, he found that there was an ancient source array, Chu Tian looked at the effects of the source array and could not help smiling.

"Good bottle of life!"

This bottle of containing Life Essence Water could be used to refine more Life Essence Water!

The jade bottle could absorb Life Essence into the jade and store it, the array at the bottom could be used to create Life Essence Water from this Life Essence. In other words, the Life Essence Water in the bottle could never be used up, it would always replenish itself.

The production speed was slow, every few weeks or even months could only produce one bottle. But if it was placed in the spring of life in South Sky City, it would only take 2 hours to produce a bottle!

The value of Life Essence Water was astonishing!

This jade bottle could produce Life Essence Water, it was simply a priceless treasure!

Chu Tian carefully observed the ring.

This ring emitted a sharp aura, the source energy array engraved seem familiar. Chu Tian examined it for a few seconds and without thinking about it, he put it on his finger.

Perfect!

This time he took a huge risks, but the profit was worth it!

Everyone was looking on blankly, they all had a defeated feeling, Chu Tian had come back alive, how did this happen?

No matter what the reason was, this fellow had treasure, how could people not be envious!

The most disgusting thing was.

This fellow took it out to see as if no one was around.

"Everyone has seen those treasures!" A bearded fellow angrily exclaimed as he gnashed his teeth, "How could a little brat like you keep it all for yourself!"

Another person also shouted, "That's right, seeing it entitles us to a share!"

Once the two of them spoke.

Everyone was excited.

"Quickly hand it over!"

"I want that ring!"

"I want the jade bottle!"

The cultivators in front all had red eyes, they slowly encircled him, a little weak brat, how could he deal with all these people?

The bearded man shouted, "I'll tell you, I am an Awakened Soul Cultivator, you handing the treasure over to me is your honor! Quickly hand it over!"

"You can only blame yourself!"

"Who let you obtain treasures in front of everyone?"

"Quickly hand over the things on your body and we can let you live!"

[TL note - I felt nothing but disgust translating these few sentences…..]

Chu Tian looked at these greedy wolves, his lips turned into a cold smile.

The ring on his right hand violently fluctuated, a swift and sharp aura exploded out.

"Such a strong aura!" The bearded man shouted sword ring, he excitedly shouted, "This treasure belongs to me!"

"You want it?" Chu Tian's eyes flashed with killing intent, "Then take it!"

Chu Tian wielded the ring, a light blue sword qi suddenly shot out.

It was too fast!

The bearded man was cleaved in two, 4-5 people in a straight line, none of them could escape, they were instantly chopped just like vegetables, falling into the bottomless abyss to vanish without a trace.

Everyone was scared!

This brat was this strong?

No, rather it should be the ring that was this strong?

That sword qi should not be inferior to the full strength strike of a 1st Awakened Soul Layer Cultivator!

It wasn't as if there were Awakened Soul cultivators present, but under the effects of the ancient tomb's suppression, they had no way to use that kind of strength, it couldn't possibly be that brat…...it could only be the power of that ring!

Chu Tian coldly swept his eyes over the crowd, "The treasure is here! Are you going to take it!"

These people were like ducks seized by the neck, not a single sound could be made, they all stared with wide eyes, faces of dread looked on at Chu Tian, no one wanted to take the lead!

"Scram for me!"

The frightened crowd quickly gave way.

Chu Tian walked out swaggeringly.

The crowd kept quiet, they didn't even dare fart.

In this world strength was revered, whoever's fist was hard they would be the master.

After seeing Chu Tian's battle strength, how could they dare steal his things?

After Chu Tian quickly left, he carefully looked at the ring again, this "Sword Qi Ring" was truly easy to use, just instilling spirit energy can turn it into wind sword qi and it was sword qi at the 1st layer Awakened Soul Realm.

Its strength was fixed!

It didn't suffer the suppression of the ancient tomb!

This treasure could let a Body Refinement Cultivator have the might of an Awakened Soul Cultivator, to normal people, it was a very precious thing, to Chu Tian's present stage, it was also useful for making up for his shortcomings.

Chu Tian had strong defensive abilities, but his attack power was weak.

The Sword Qi Ring would make up for Chu Tian's lack of attack power!

Chu Tian kept walking down the road, all around him were treasures, but only a few items came within a distance of 10 zhang. Moreover the Abyss of Death's astral wind, seemed to be growing in intensity with time.

No way!

The value of the treasures were not cheap, but it was far from worth playing with his live, without being absolutely certain, Chu Tian would not risk his life so easily.

Finally, the end of the road.

Chu Tian entered a glowing door to enter the second floor.

First floor, Abyss of Death was over.

Second floor, Wraith Palace was beginning!

The dark empty world vanished.

Chu Tian arrived in front of a large rundown palace.

His entire view was covered in dark fog, he could not see beyond 10 meters, a chilly cold wind blew gray mist over. The sound of a ghost howling could often be heard, letting people feel fear from their hearts.

The bronze masked old man had said, the first two tests were not hard.

But, as more and more cultivators died in the ancient tomb, the second floor would become more dangerous.

Because when cultivators died in the ancient tomb, their souls were sealed. With their grievances they would turn into evil spirits. They would be jealous of future cultivators that come, when encountered they would cling on for dear life, the difficulty would become harder and harder.

Chu Tian had just entered the mist and the mist seemed to seethe with excitement, as if it were alive. Waves of mournful cries came from all four directions, it was very disturbing to people's mental states.

This ghost fog was not a normal fog, it was a very evil energy.

Average people will have their flesh and blood sucked dry, even if strong cultivators stayed for a long time, perhaps they would also slowly become weaker.

It was bad to stay here for long!

The Wraith Palace was filled with dangers and the ghost fog had to be resisted, it was easier said than done to escape?

At this time, a strong aura surged forward, letting Chu Tian feel a little shock in his heart. He thought it was a ghost so he prepared the Starlight Immortal Body.

From the ghost fog, a cold arrogant voice rang out, "Your defense cultivation technique is not bad!"

A purple form walked out from the fog, skin as white as snow, jet black hair flowed down the back, on the face was a fine gauze, a pair of eyes as bright as the stars shined, an arrogant expression, a solemn radiance, just like a thorny rose.

Yun Yao's entire body was covered in lightning, when the dense fog approached, it was immediately exploded away. The thunder was suppressing the evil spirits, the ghost fog did not have any effect on her.

Unexpectedly it's this woman?

You really are unlucky!

Chu Tian let out an evil smile!

Chapter 71: Wraith Palace

Chu Tian was not a small minded person, but Yun Yao had left an extremely bad impression with him, people could be crazy, they could be arrogant, but they shouldn't always show it, as if under the heavens, only they existed.

A small country little girl at the 3rd Awakened Soul Layer.

I don't even act like this and you think you should!

This person, from their childhood they were adored, fostering this overbearing arrogant attitude, then add in the fact they never had any experience in the Jianghu, they do not have any plans, only knowing how to show superiority!

Yun Yao said in a tone that did not allow disobedience, "Inside the palace in front there is a treasure I want, go and help me lead the ghost away, after we finish, I'll generously compensate you!"

Yun Yao's tone was disdainful.

An average appearance, average strength peon!

With my prestige and strength, he still dares not obey?

Yun Yao was obviously preparing to take a treasure, but met a hard to deal with monster, so she thought to find someone to distract it and by chance she found Chu Tian.

A monster that Yun Yao didn't have a chance against?

Could a peasant have any hope of surviving?

This woman clearly did not care about other people's lives!

Every insult, as long as it wasn't overboard, Chu Tian could smile and pretend it's a joke. With his identity, even if he was weakened after rebirth, he still wouldn't argue with this kind of little girl, how could a dragon pay attention to ants?

At most he would teach her a little lesson.

Now it was different, thinking of making me a meat shield, even using me as bait!

Could he endure this? Chu Tian's attitude did not let him suffer a loss, she had already insulted Chu Tian once, now she insulted him again, if Chu Tian just ignored this, then he should just write his name backwards!

Yun Yao aloofly said, "Are you deaf? You're still not moving!"

"Wanting others to risk their life for you with one sentence, do you think you're a king!"

Chu Tian's loudly shouted sentence, truly startled Yun Yao.

This brat is actually impressive, he dares use this tone to contradict me.

"I am not a king, my status you should be clear of, I urge you to differentiate between good and bad. In Central State there are countless people willing to go through fire and water for me, to be able to work for me is your honor! Now I'll give you one last chance! Will you go or not?"

Chu Tian started to laughing, he laughed very happily, "Actually this is very interesting, with your sealed cultivation, where does your self confidence come from?"

Yun Yao's face fell, "How bold!"

Chu Tian continued to taunt, "Alright, you're a girl, I know what you're planning, please don't take the opportunity to start a conversation! I don't like your type, taking but refusing to give, quickly scram for me! If not Big Brother will take a minute to teach you how to be a proper person!"

How....how outrageous!

Yun Yao's face was white with anger.

Did he eat a pair leopard's balls?

The Central State elders were all polite to her.

One of the Central State Four Young Masters, the only girl out of the four geniuses, moreover she was one of the most beautiful woman in Central State, always the center of attention, had she ever received this kind of treatment?

Was there a person in this world that could be so unconcerned with having face?

Was this young lady worth being insulted by this average appearance, average strength, lowly birth peasant?

Yun Yao's pupils flashed with a dangerous thunder, "You think I won't kill you?"

"The people that want to kill me are numerous, in the end they all suffered a bad fate." Chu Tian heart had a trace of killing intent, "Do you want to try it too?"

Without knowing why, Yun Yao's heart skipped a beat!

A strong bad feeling could be felt, one that made her suppress her killing intent.

"Relax, you're still useful to me, I won't kill you." Suddenly Yun Yao's body was covered in lightning, countless profound runes immediately covered her, "But a lesson is inevitable, I have to let you know, the weak will always be weak, first I'll let you suffer a little pain!"

"Thunder!"

With Yun Yao's sweet delicate voice, bolts of purple coloured lightning appeared!

This woman's source spirit, it was actually a thunder and lightning source spirit!

Thunder and lightning was one of the strongest natural powers!

The battle strength of thunder and lightning would not be weak!

Four-five thick lightning bolts, shot up into the sky, carrying an invincible might, as if it was intelligent, twisting and flying forward before falling down.

Peng, peng, peng!

The thunder fell down on his body!

Immediately striking the starlight!

The lightning was blocked by the outside layer of starlight!

Chu Tian calmly took the lightning attack, without forgetting to taunt back, "Actually there are many types of thunder source spirits, you however have an inferior one! I've even seen the Nine Heaven Thunder God source spirit, I don't know where the superiority of a girl like you comes from! You are truly short-sighted, truly ignorant!"

Yun Yao was startled and angry!

This fellow's cultivation base was not even at the 9th Body Refinement Layer.

Even if Yun Yao was being suppressed, she was still at the peak 9th Body Refinement Layer. She was confident that at the same level, she would sweep away any other cultivators.

She was not an average person.

She was one of the Central State Four Young Masters!

The most dazzling talent out of the tens of millions of people in this country!

Thunder and lightning source spirit, shock in all directions, letting countless people feel envy!

Other than the other geniuses, no one could compete with her at the same level, but this youth's cultivation did not even reach the peak 9th Body Refinement Layer.

"You forced me to do this!"

Yun Yao's self esteem was blown away by that attack and she was thoroughly angry, hundred bolts of lightning shot out from her body, the wild strength directly evaporated a large part of the surrounding fog.

The thunder flowed like water, gathering into her arms, illuminating both arms with thunder blades, a glorious shine, a shocking flash, letting people be unable to stare directly at it.

""Swift Thunder Slash!"

Yun Yao's appearance flickered!

Fast!

Too fast!

Even her shadow could not be seen!

The purple form brought the two thunder blades forward to slice!

Yun Yao was at least twice as fast as Chu Tian, if it was a normal cultivator, they would have no way of avoiding her attack.

"Hyperfocus!"

Chu Tian gently swayed his body, avoiding by the slightest margin.

The blade was attached to Yun Yao's arms, when she sliced into thin air, her heart was in shock, such fine movement, there was no way for average people to achieve this.

Hyperfocus?

He actually was able to use hyperfocus!

While Chu Tian was dodging his left hand swept across, just happening to sweep across her face. Yun Yao felt her face was bare, the purple veil had been removed.

"You..."

Yun Yao felt her cheeks, her face filled with a red blush.

Yun Yao's true face was exposed, it was the image of a country destroying beauty, not inferior to the Meng Qingwu sisters. It was just a different style, but to each his own.

"Give it back!"

Chu Tian laughed, the ring on his right hand flashed, sending out a fierce sword qi. Yun Yao quickly summoned thunder to cover her body, the sword qi forced her several steps back, but it did not harm her body.

Yun Yao was not simple.

She could block a sword qi attack with a strength at the 1st Awakened Soul Layer!

Chu Tian played with the veil in his hand, his face was full of ridicule, "The Central State Four Young Masters truly do not deserve their reputation, you wouldn't be a fake right!"

How could Yun Yao still be proud and arrogant?

Being provoked so many times, she couldn't hold it in anymore!

"Rushing Thunder Palm!"

Countless purple blue lightning began to bloom with a beautiful glow, the wild lightning energy radiated out, melting out a large area of fog, the thunder gathered in her arms, turning Yun Yao's jade white hands into a pair of lightning hands.

Such a strong aura!

This attack Chu Tian had to be careful of.

He was afraid even ordinary 1st layer Awakened Soul cultivators wouldn't be able to block this!

With just her attack strength, she would not be below Nangong Yun.

Her figure disappeared, dragging the two lightning glow, instantly appearing before Chu Tian. Yun Yao not only had the power of lightning, but also the speed of lightning!

Chu Tian had no opportunity to dodge, he could only protect his body with the starlight, concentrating to form the clear glazed armour!

Peng!

The two Rushing Lightning Palms slammed onto Chu Tian's defenses.

The lightning shot out!

The starlight dispersed!.

Chu Tian felt as if he had been split by lightning.

Yun Yao felt as if she had hit a hard diamond.

The Rushing Lightning Palm has dispersed most of the starlight, but did not hit Chu Tian, she was pushed back several steps, Chu Tian took the chance to punch Yun Yao right in the face, sending her flying for several meters.

"Your strength is only mediocre!"

Chu Tian rubbed his fist, his face filled with disdain.

Yun Yao flowing black hair was in disorder, half her face was swollen, this strike caused shock in her heart, this was impossible!

Why was he able to defend against the Rushing Thunder Palm?

At this moment, Chu Tian stood in the same place unscathed, countless thunder arcs surrounded him, the starlight endlessly sparkled, wild as a heavenly deity descended to earth.

No only was he overwhelmingly strong.

He also was ruthless in taking action!

This kind of country collapsing beautiful woman, Chu Tian didn't even think about it and directly punched her in the face, this could mean that he wasn't affected by Yun Yao's beauty.

Her mind blanked!

Frustration welled up inside her!

Her strongest attack couldn't hurt the enemy!

This kind of attack on Yun Yao, its effects were too big!

Originally she thought she would be able bullying a pushover, but she never would have thought that she would kick a steel plate!

Why did it become like this?

The geniuses stronger than me in Central State, wasn't there only three of them?

How could a random nameless peasant show up and beat me!

"Only this kind of strength? Weak! Not mentioning me, I have a friend that could beat you up!"

Chu Tian was naturally thinking of Nangong Yun, at the same level, Nangong Yun was definitely capable of beating up Yun Yao.

"If you have skills then fight me outside the ancient tomb!" Yun Yao gripped her fists as she angrily shouted, "I could kill you with a single finger!"

"Aiyo, you still dare threaten me?" Chu Tian appeared in front of Yun Yao, "What you say is reasonable, but just saying things will not give you the opportunity."

Peng!

Peng!

Chu Tian's right hand was on the tall peaks, he used his fingers to press down, spirit energy entered into her meridians, sealing several of her main meridians.

Yun Yao's body trembled.

The snow white cheeks became red!

This bastard dares to tarnish me?

Chu Tian impolitely explored up and down Yun Yao's body, he had to say that this girl's figure was good, what should be big was big, what should be small was small.

"Rubbish Four Young Master! Why not just change your name to the Four Great Paupers!" Chu Tian had discovered several bottles of pills, a bracelet, a necklace, and nothing else, he was very angry as he said, "So little valuable things! Aren't you ashamed to bring this little out? Even I feel ashamed for you!"

Yun Yao's face turned red with shame and resentment!

She had been robbed!

She was one of the dignified Central State Four Young Masters, the famous super talent, stepping into the Awakened Soul Realm before 20, now she was an Awakened Soul Realm 3rd Layer super expert!

Who would have thought she would be insulted by this fellow at the Body Refinement Realm?

This time if she could live, she had to tear him into ten thousand pieces!

"Relax, I won't kill you, you're still useful to me." Chu Tian opened Yun Yao's meridians, "I'm interested in the treasure that you found earlier, you'll distract the powerful being and let me get the thing, after we finish, I'll compensate you!"

Yun Yao exploded with rage!

Wasn't this what she said to him?

Chu Tian saying these words.

It was simply slapping her face!

Shame!

Shame!

It was simply a great shame!

Chu Tian viciously stood there and said, "What are you standing there in a daze for? You are already my captive! You're still not moving to help me!"

"You dirty thing! How could I, Yun Yao allow a person like you force me to do things!" Yun Yao was thoroughly enraged, thunder covered her once again, once again coming to fight, "I'll die with you!"

After several rounds.

Yun Yao had been beaten again.

Chu Tian was holding his chest, blood hanged from the corners of his mouth, his hair and clothes were charred black, smoke was drifting from him, he had apparently been injured.

This girl was too thorny!

Even if Chu Tian could pressure her, his advantage was still not too obvious.

Yun Yao was even more distressed, her hair was completely disordered, her image was gone, the elegant beautiful face had already turned swollen, a hysteric expression was on her face, "If you have the skills then kill me, otherwise you'll encounter no small trouble if you let me go!"

She rushed over again.

Fuck, her temper is so fierce!

This stubborn personality infuriated Chu Tian!

No problem, dealing with your kind of woman, your Big Brother Tian has his ways!

"You aren't convinced? Chu Tian easily subdued Yun Yao, his palm slapped across her butt, "Father here will just hit you until you are!"

Yun Yao's brain turned blank.

He unexpectedly....hit my butt!

Chapter 72: Nether Spirit Palace

Her brain completely went blank!

Yun Yao was 20, one of the Four Young Masters, was regarded as a precious treasure since her youth, her nature was overbearing and strived for success, also stuck in her own way, she was used to bullying others, how could she have ever been bullied?

Let alone being spanked on the butt by a man!

Pa!

Yun Yao could not respond in time.

The plentiful butt was smacked once again!

This woman's body was not as good as Meng Qingwu's, but the feel was still very good, very flexible, it was truly enjoyable. She was one of the dignified Four Young Masters, to be able to discipline a person of this caliber, it truly gave on a satisfied feeling!

Chu Tian asked again, "Will you go or not?"

Yun Yao's round eyes stared, "Don't even think about it!"

Chu Tian fiercely hit her again!

Yun Yao had already collapsed, she was already crying from being hit, "You shaming me like this! I will not let you go! Will not let you go! I will definitely kill you!"

"You naturally can shame others, then other people can't shame you? Perhaps you've never heard, despicable people deserve to be shamed!" Chu Tian did not show any compassion to this woman, he fiercely smacked the buttocks a few more time, "I'll ask you once again, will you go or not?"

"Why don't you just kill me?"

"Aiyo, truly a stubborn person!" Chu Tian grinned as he said, "There's no way then, relax I won't kill you, but I'm a kind of person that loves to destroy pretty flowers."

"You…..You dare!"

"What don't I dare to do?" Chu Tian ominously said, "Decide, first I'll rape you 10-20 times, then I'll waste your cultivation and disfigure you face!"

Such excessive cruelty!

She had never seen anyone this ruthless!

"You…..You pervert!" Yun Yao was in complete panic, "Stop! You dare do anything to me, even if I become a ghost I won't let you go!"

If that was the case!

She wouldn't have the courage to continue living.

"You think I won't dare?" Chu Tian did not pity her at all, "I'll ask you one last time, will you go or not!"

Yun Yao bit her lips, her eyes began to mist, "I…...I'll go!"

Chu Tian ruthless patted her butt again, "Do you know your wrongdoings?"

Yun Yao was about to burst, "I…...I know!"

Chu Tian patted her again, "Will you take revenge!"

Yun Yao eyes popped out again, "Nonsense! I want to cut you into a thousand pieces! Eat your flesh and drink your blood! Turn your bones into ashes!"

"Fuck, how fierce! That bad?!" Chu Tian made a move as if he wanted to remove Yun Yao's clothes, "There's no way then, I don't want to leave trouble for myself, although you are not my type, I'll force myself do this terrible deed."

"Stop, stop! Won't take revenge! I won't take revenge!" Yun Yao's tears began to fall, "Quickly stop it!"

"You really won't take revenge?"

"Really!"

"Alright, I'll trust you this once!"

Yun Yao's butt was burning, the hatred in her heart was thick, as for the promise to not take revenge? Pei! How could she not take revenge! Once she leaves this ancient tomb, the first thing she would do is take care of this bastard!

How could Chu Tian not see through her intentions, but he didn't care about it, "You're still not quickly guiding the way? Is your butt still itchy? Want me to help you rub it?"

Yun Yao's face turned as red as a monkey's bottom, she was biting her teeth so hard it almost broke.

That place was one she had found, she never thought she would have to share it with this bastard!

Stay in the castle peak, do not worry about firewood!

You just wait for me!

Yun Yao viciously stared at Chu Tian, an ordinary appearance, without any fame, but was even crazier than her, letting Yun Yao not have a single way out.

Originally she wanted to force Chu Tian, in the end she was the one being forced.

Yun Yao had no choice, she could only be dragged by Chu Tian.

In the dense fog, an outline of a jet black palace appeared.

The black palace was in the centre position, at the same time it was the place with the most dense Yin Qi. Even through the heavy fog, an ancient aura could be felt coming from it, it seemed the treasure being hidden within was not as simple as it seemed.

Yun Yao clenched her with unwillingness.

Did she really have to lead away the spirit inside?

She really had to give this bastard a share?

While Yun Yao was preparing herself.

Chu Tian suddenly noticed something, immediately he called Yun Yao, "Wait!"

While Yun Yao was stunned, several explosion sounds came through the mist, followed by a mournful spirit's crying voice, a surprised expression appeared on her face, there seemed to be people here.

"Quickly run!"

Three cultivators rushed out in distress.

A single spirit following behind them, covered in thick mist, its face was ugly and vicious, in his hand was a black trident covered in blue ghost flames. Wherever he went, a cold wind followed, blowing fast.

Chu Tian was shocked, "It's a Spirit Demon!"

Spirit Demons were a type of very fierce spirits, spirits that were formed after hundreds, even up to a thousand years of cultivation. If their strengths were not sealed, even Yun Yao would not be a match for this Spirit Demon!

Even if Spirit Demons were suppressed by the ancient tomb, wrapped in its shroud of mystical powers, it would be sufficient for it to fight Awakened Soul Cultivators!

"Ah!"

The Spirit Demon let out a scream!

Yun Yao felt as if a nail was digging into her soul, instantly causing intense pain, her eyes blacked, her whole body was paralyzed as she fainted!

Chu Tian shouted, "Wake up!"

Yun Yao's body shook, instantly restoring her consciousness, showing an amazed face, it…...it attacked the soul!

The fleeing cultivators did not have the same luck.

The Spirit Demon raised it trident covered in ghost fire, the ghost fire shot right at one of the cultivators, he pitifully fell to ground and cried, tumbling and kicking, but the ghost fire was not an ordinary fire, it could not be extinguished with usual methods.

His skin quickly became wrinkled.

His hair also turned white.

After a few seconds, the vigorous young man had suddenly turned into an old man on the verge of death.

The Spirit Demon inhaled, the ghost flame with all the cultivators life essence, was all absorbed into its body.

Such a terrifying skill!

The two remaining cultivators were scared out of their wits, they once again tried to escape. Seeing Chu Tian's group, as if wildly grasping at straws, "Save us! Save us!"

Yun Yao's expression fell, "That Spirit Demon was led over by them!"

Chu Tian wanted to help, but he couldn't react in time.

"Ao!"

The Spirit Demon stuck his weapon into the ground, blue ghost flames sprouted out. A long trench was created by the flames, just like a blue dragon, slithering its way forward.

The two cultivators didn't have a chance, the ghost flames slammed into their bodies and they died a tragic death!

Chu Tian and Yao Yun jumped aside to avoid it, they didn't dare touching this life draining ghost flame!

"Thunder!"

Yao Yun shouted in mid air, awakening the power of her thunder and lightning source spirit. Suddenly extending her ten fingers, countless thunder rays shot out.

The Spirit Demon was a spirit without a body, its body was made of nothing, completely invisible, it was hard to make a move against, common martial arts had no effect.

The long trident was raised!

The several lightning bolts were attracted by the trident!

Yun Yao let out a shocked expression, the spirit could block her lightning attack, how was this possible? Thunder was the weakness of spirits!

Chu Tian didn't find it strange, "The Spirit Demon has lived in the ancient tomb for a long time, although its cultivation has been sealed, its foundation is very deep, it forcefully countered the lightning with the Yin Qi in its body, this is a very rare occurrence!"

Yun Yao did not stop releasing her lightning, her face began to turn white, "I can't hold on! Are you just gonna stand and watch?"

Chu Tian casually pulled out a talisman.

His legs kicked out!

Shooting forward!

The Spirit Demon was not simple, one hand holding the trident to stave Yun Yao's attack, with the other hand, he started shooting ghost flames at Chu Tian.

Two sword qi sliced apart the ghost flames!

Chu Tian smoothly arrived in front of the Spirit Demon and he stuck the Illumination Talisman onto the Spirit Demon's empty body!

In an instant, gloriously radiant, like a small sun exploding, gold white rays covered the Spirit Demon, instantly melting a huge part of the Spirit Demon's body.

A good chance!

Yun Yao seized the chance to condense the power of her lightning, while the Spirit Demon was suffering heavy injuries, she shot the lightning to tear the Spirit Demon apart.

The sparkling lightning bolts shot out, blasting several large holes in the surrounding.

The position that Chu Tian was in, just as he moved out of the way, a lightning bolt struck down right where he was, "Fuck! This girl! Taking this chance to deal with me!"

Yun Yao's eyes flashed a trace of pity, "There was too much force behind it!"

It'd be strange if I believed you!

This is the so called poisonous female heart!

It would simpler to just kill her, better than leaving a disaster by my side!

Yun Yao saw Chu Tian's uncertain face, her heart skipped a beat, "You…..What are you doing? I really didn't mean to do it!"

Chu Tian was truly prepared to kill, but looking at the black palace, the killing intent in his heart calmed. This palace will not be easy to pass, with Yun Yao by his side, he would at least have someone to help.

"I hope there won't be a next time."

"Yes…...."

Even in Yun Yao's dream she wouldn't have thought, she would become so obedient to such a small character.

This youth was too hateful, he clearly hadn't even grown any hair yet, but he was still this mysterious, making it hard for people to guess what he's thinking.

Yun Yao saw Chu Tian pick up a purple black bead, "What is that thing?"

"You don't even recognize a spirit core? Truly stupid and ignorant!" Chu Tian placed the strange bead into his pocket, this thing was a treasure, its value was much higher than corpse cores, "The spirit core is the condensed soul of the spirit, it is not inferior to a same level beast core, it probably could be considered even better."

The Spirit Demon was a very strong spirit.

If this Spirit Demon was outside, it would be much stronger than Yun Yao. This spirit core that Chu Tian took, it was very valuable.

This kind of good thing being taken away!

Yun Yao clenched her teeth, she was a little unwilling.

Yun Yao let out a breath of air, "This fellow has been killed, you should hurry and enter!"

Chu Tian looked at her with intrigued eyes, "Hei, hei, do you really not understand or are you playing the fool?"

Yun Yao's eyes flashed a trace of light, "I really don't know what you're talking about!"

Chu Tian lightly said to her, "This palace doesn't only have one Spirit Demon, there should be other spirits inside!"

Yun Yao snorted and said, "I've never been inside, how would I know?"

"Actually, normal spirits, we can deal with." Chu Tian eyes became solemn as he stared at the black palace, "Spirit Demons are the guards of the Spirit King, if there is a Spirit Demon here, there is the possibility of there being a Spirit King here."

The Spirit King was a type of evil spirit that had cultivated for a thousand years!

On the outside they could easily sweep through Awakened Soul Cultivators, even if it was suppressed by the ancient grave, it would still be a powerful existence!

"Hei, hei, hei, hei, I never would have thought, there would be someone who knew of the Spirit King's existence!"

A hoarse old voice, came from the dense fog, a black robed old man and a middle aged swordsman, slowly walked over.

Once Yun Yao saw the middle aged man, "Wan Wuyi?"

She then looked at the black robed man, "Dark Flame Medicine Master Mo Yan, I never thought you would come too, I didn't see you in the main hall!"

The middle aged man was the rogue cultivator expert, his name was the Yin Wind Swordsman, Wan Wuyi.

The black robed old man was being low key in the main hall, so no one noticed him there, but he was also an extraordinary person. His nickname was "Dark Flame Medicine Master" and was one of the most famous alchemists in Central State.

Wan Wuyi was staring back at Yun Yao, "Does the Purple Lightning Young Master also want a piece of the Nether Spirit Palace?"

"Old Brother Wuyi, no need to worry." Mo Yan was a skinny old man with a wrinkled face, he had a gentle smiling face, "If I haven't guessed wrong, the Purple Lightning Young Master wants the Thunder Spirit Bead in the Nether Spirit Palace, am I right?"

Yun Yao clenched her fist, "So what if it is?"

Mo Yan slowly said, "Old Brother wants the Netherworld Sword, I want the Netherworld Ghost Flame, and we'll give you the Thunder Spirit Bead, like this, why don't we work together?"

Yun Yao's heart skipped a beat.

This was a good chance to take out Chu Tian!

Yun Yao directly walked beside them, "What you say makes sense, I'll cooperate with you, after we finish this matter, we'll take what we need."

Chu Tian was angered, "If you take everything, what will Father take?"

Mo Yan saw Chu Tian looked average, was young, and his aura was weak, he coldly snorted and said, "Is this a friend of the Purple Lightning Young Master?"

Yun Yao snorted, "I don't know him!"

"An unknown peasant want to divide the treasure with us?" Wan Wuyi pulled out a black jade treasured sword, "While I still don't want to kill you! Scram!"

Chu Tian coldly smiled and said, "I'll be frank, if you small characters go in you won't even be enough to fill the holes in the Spirit King's teeth!"

Purple Lightning Young Master!

Yin Wind Swordsman!

Dark Flame Medicine Master!

Which one wasn't a well know famous person? In this boy's mouth they were nothing but small characters!

"How bold!"

The Yin Wind Swordsman was furious, his sword swept out, a fierce sword qi, suddenly shot forward!

Yun Yao showed a face full of schadenfreude, the sword of the Yin Wind Swordsman was not weak, this little brat was doomed!

A fuzzy black sword shadow, appeared right in front of Chu Tian.

"Scram!"

Chu Tian used his sword source spirit to slice out, a devastating wild power swept out, Wan Wuyi was knocked back several steps, his face changed several times in a row.

Yun Yao's face was full of shock.

Sword Source Spirit!

This brat unexpectedly had a source spirit!

That being said, when he was fighting her, he hadn't fought for real!

Wan Wuyi showed a little fear, "I never would have thought you would have some skills, but it is far from enough! I'll let you see the true might of the Secret Yin Wind Sword Art!"

"Old Brother, hold on for a minute!" Mo Yan looked Chu Tian up and down, "This little brother's strength is not bad, he's qualified to join us, as for the treasure, we'll split it evenly ok?"

"Alright!"

Chu Tian was also exhausted.

His spirit energy was already spent, he had no way to summon the Demon God's sword anymore.

Yun Yao was furious in her heart, she couldn't extinguish this evil star, he even was invited to join!

The Yin Wind Swordsman, Dark Flame Medicine Master, those two idiots couldn't see it. This brat was not as simple as he seemed, if they fought him alone they wouldn't be his match!

Chapter 73: Spirit King

Each of the four them had their own axe to grind.

Mo Yan was a wily old fox, Wan Wuyi had plans deep in his heart. Yun Yao held a grudge against Chu Tian in her heart, Chu Tian not only had to defend against the three of them, he also had to think of a way of getting a share.

This alliance was too fragile!

Mutually respecting each other, not daring to make a move!

Mo Yan coldly said as he was walking, "Purple Lightning Young Master has a rare thunder source spirit, if you obtain the Thunder Spirit Bead, then your strength could be increased quite a bit, then you would have nothing to fear in this ten thousand corpse ancient grave."

If Yun Yao obtained the Thunder Spirit Bead and increased her strength.

Then it would be dangerous for everyone else.

In Wan Wuyi's eyes flashed a ruthless glow, his fear towards Yun Yao deepened.

Yun Yao retorted by asking, "The Netherworld Flame that the Spirit King has refined for a thousand years, the Netherworld Sword that was the ancient sect's precious treasure, which one of these would be worse than the Thunder Spirit Bead? Your, Mo Yan's «Controlling Flame Art» synergizes with the Netherworld Flame and if Wan Wuyi's «Secret Yin Wind Sword Art» synergizes with the Netherworld Sword, would it be any inferior?

Mo Yan and Wan Wuyi did not say anything.

Chu Tian was a little upset.

Their goal was clear, but if you take all the treasure, what's left for father?

However Chu Tian did not express his feelings, the existence of the Spirit King, just being able to escape was already a problem, not to mention being able to obtain treasures.

When they entered the large doors, the main hall was dim, the ground was filled with skeletons, shattered armour and broken swords were scattered across the floor.

These skeletons were the remains of previous explorers, cultivators from the treasure hunts in the past years, they all lost their lives her.

It truly gave people a sense of foreboding.

In the center of the main hall, three impressive evil statues stood there, each one had a demonic glance, filled with glowing purple light, like the eyes of a spirit god, staring right at them.

Yun Yao was excited, "That's the Thunder Spirit Bead!"

Inside of the glowing stare was a bead, around the size of a fist, glittering and translucent, its light gave off a sort of pressure. It was covered in bright glowing lightning arcs, even from a distance, one could still feel the strength coming from it.

Chu Tian rubbed his chin, "Thunder and lightning law bead? It hasn't been damaged after all these years, it could be considered quite a precious treasure, no wonder Yun Yao wants this thing!"

Mo Yan and Wan Wu Yi's minds filled with suspicion.

The Nether Spirit Palace had three treasures, Thunder Spirit Bead, Netherworld Sword, and Netherworld Flame, why did on the Thunder Spirit Bead appear?

A cold wind swept through the main hall, the skeletons on the ground began to glow. The space that was just empty, several fanged, blue faced human figure appeared, each one gripped a trident.

"This many Spirit Demons!"

Yun Yao's expression turned ugly!

The Spirit Demons appeared, the blue ghost flame also ignited, shooting out at them.

Mo Yan knit his brow and said, "Everyone, attack together!"

Yun Yao summoned her thunder and lightning source spirit, hundred bolts of thunder shot out, like a meteor shower, unceasingly raining down on the Spirit Demons. Yun Yao's strength was not weak, but with this man Spirit Demons, how could she block it by herself.

Chu Tian had to make a move and two light attribute talismans ignited, instantly changing into two spears of light, viciously shoot out at a Spirit Demon that made it through the net.

The light shine out!

The Spirit Demon was pushed back several meters.

Chu Tian stood in front of Yun Yao with a long spear of light in hand, the remaining Spirit Demons were are scared, immediately slowing down.

"This brat is not simple, I've never seen this kind of Symbol Technique before."

"He can use the strength of light unexpectedly, using to directly attack the ghosts!"

Wan Wuyi and Mo Yan were startled, they were beginning to feel more and more curious towards Chu Tian's origins, if he was a cultivator of Central State, how come they've never heard of him. Perhaps he wasn't a person from Central State, perhaps he wasn't even a citizen of the Southern Summer Country?

The Spirit Demons were hard to deal with, but that was mainly because of their incorporeal bodies.

This limited the power of normal weapons and strategies.

The Spirit Demon have been in the center of the ancient tomb for countless years, being suppressed by the ancient tomb, having its cultivation sealed, but its foundation was solid, it wasn't easy to kill.

Mo Yan had to make a move, his hands gathered together, a black flame appeared, a dozen black fireballs shot out from his body, falling like rain on the Spirit Demons.

Mo Yan practiced an ancient cultivation technique, the «Secret Imperial Flame Art». His source spirit was also flame attributed, so he could control a variety of flames. As an alchemy master, this helped in increasing the quality of pills refined, as an Awakened Soul Cultivator, his collected flames could help him promote his battle strength.

Mo Yan and Yun Yao suppressed from range.

Chu Tian and Wan Wuyi, boldly rushed forward, attacking from close range.

The dozen incomparably vicious Spirit Demons were blocked by the four of them, Chu Tian swallowed a bit of thousand year Yuan Essence Grass to restore his spirit energy, then he shot forward, his dual spears stabbing through Spirit Demons.

Peng!

The first Spirit Demon had been taken care of!

Wan Wuyi was truly worthy of being known as the most renowned rogue swordsman in Central State, his cultivation technique «Secret Yin Wind Sword Art» was an evil cultivation technique, so it was able to interfere with the soul attacks of the Spirit Demons.

"Blood Demon!"

Wan Wuyi was a swordsman, but he did not have a sword source spirit, rather he had a evil spirit that invigorated his vital energy!

"Yin Wind Slicing the Soul!"

The fierce blood demon, shot forward 10 meters, a blood blade appeared in midair, directly cutting a Spirit Demon in half.

Yun Yao revealed a startled expression, "The source spirit can use sword techniques?"

The Spirit Demon had a spiritual body.

Source spirits also had a spiritual body.

Wan Wuyi's flesh body did not move, his source spirit used his sword techniques, directly attacking the enemy's soul. With this he could slice the Spirit Demon apart in a single slash, he was much more efficient than Chu Tian.

"Yin Wind Retreat!"

Wan Wuyi's body flickered, disappearing into cold wind, vanishing before them.

Chu Tian stared in disbelief, "We haven't killed the Spirit Demons yet, where did he go?"

Wan Wuyi flew past the Spirit Demons, only appearing before the three demonic statues, he lept up twice, jumping on top the statue.

Yun Yao understood what he wanted.

Whoever struck first had the advantage in taking the Thunder Spirit Bead!

She angrily cursed, "This bastard!"

"Stop!" Chu Tian realized something, "That bead can't be removed yet!"

A joke?

You want me to wait for you to take it?

Wan Wuyi ignored Chu Tian's warning, his sword flew into the statue's eye, a precious purple gem flew out.

Wan Wuyi wildly laughed, his hand shot out to grab it, gripping onto the precious gem, "The ancient treasure Thunder Spirit Bead, I'll just accept it!"

Chu Tian angrily scolded, "You idiot!"

Dong, dong, dong!

The main hall began to shake.

On the surface of the three demonic statues, cracks began to form, as the cracks slowly became larger, an ancient and terrifying aura leaked out from the three statues.

Mo Yan was stuck between anger and shock, "What is going on?"

Chu Tian sighed, "The Thunder Spirit Bead was put here to suppress the Spirit King, now that the Thunder Spirit Bead has been removed, the Spirit King is free!"

What?

Spirit King!

Wan Wuyi turned around, seeing the three demonic statues, cracks forming from head to toe, a purple black aura was leaking out of the cracks.

"Humph!"

"What Spirit King!"

"Father has the Thunder Spirit Bead, why would I fear it?"

Wan Wuyi inject spirit energy into the precious gem, trying to awaken it, to awakens its strong abilities. Who would have guessed, the wild will of the precious gem would reject Wan Wuyi.

Peng!

Lightning shot out in all directions!

Just like beautiful fireworks!

Wan Wuyi was directly send flying, the Thunder Spirit Bead turned into a ray of light, directly escaping his hands!

"Damn!"

"Come back to me!"

Wan Wuyi was injured by the Thunder Spirit Bead, how could he still have the strength to catch it. The Thunder Spirit Bead was fast, it quickly flew out of the palace.

Chu Tian instantly jumped into the air, before he could grab the Thunder Spirit Bead, the Thunder Spirit Bead once again shot out lightning, directly slamming onto Chu Tian's body.

"A broken bead has this kind of temperament! It's simply going against the heavens!

Chu Tian released his starlight to resist the strength of the Thunder Spirit Bead, he held the bead in his chest for a few seconds, the strength of the Thunder Spirit Bead slowly decreased, finally returning to normal like it was entering a deep sleep.

Chu Tian returned onto the ground, he was panting in exhaustion as he took out another piece of Yuan Essence Grass.

The Thunder Spirit Bead was a shocking soul weapon!

Soul weapons were a grade higher than spirit weapons, it requires a soul to be awakened in the spirit weapon, most spirit weapons will not have a soul, but there are some stronger spirit weapons that over the years will develop their own consciousness, they can even practice special techniques letting their souls become stronger.

The Thunder Spirit Bead has been in the ancient tomb for over a thousand years, this kind of long period, ordinary treasures would have turned to dust already, but the Thunder Spirit Bead, not only was it not damaged, it had also developed a soul.

It truly was a miraculous treasure!

Chu Tian was prepared to put away the Thunder Spirit Bead and then run from this place!

Who would have thought at this time, an appalling laugh would suddenly ring out through the main hall, "Jie, jie, jie, jie....Living people, living people....!"

The three demonic statues were all broken apart.

The surrounding fog seethed with excitement as a formidable aura was felt, it was wildly emitted forming an intense pressure, instantly covering the entire area, making it hard for people to breathe.

"Jie, jie, jie, jie!"

A giant red form appeared in midair.

Yun Yao screamed in panic, "What is that thing!"

The strong spirit instantly appeared, a terrifying pressure that made it hard for people to breathe. Its body suddenly vanished without a trace, appearing in front of several cultivators.

[TL Note - Well apparently there were other people here….rip mob characters….]

These people could not even see its movements before their flesh and blood was sucked dry.

After the Spirit King killed these cultivators, its eyes fell on Chu Tian. It was an intelligent being, the Thunder Spirit Bead on Chu Tian's body made it feel discomfort, so it decided to quickly take out this discomforting person.

Sou!

Its form flickered!

The Spirit King appeared in front of him.

A pair of a sharp red claw swept out, even the air was distorted, Chu Tian unconsciously activated his Glass Body.

Pa!

A shrill shattering sound!

Chu Tian's five organs were all shaken as he was directly sent flying around 20 meters, "Fuck, that hurt like hell!"

The Thunder Spirit Bead in his hand was like a ticking bomb, not only does the Thunder Spirit Bead reject him, it would also attract the attention of the Spirit King, it was too dangerous!

Chu Tian didn't have any other ways, he quickly threw the Thunder Spirit Bead over to Yun Yao, "Quickly take that to deal with him!"

Yun Yao was very clear on how strong Chu Tian's defense was.

The spirit that could beat up Chu Tian like that, how could anyone else block it.

Yun Yao caught the Thunder Spirit Bead and the soul of the Thunder Spirit Bead regained consciousness, this time it didn't wildly resist, instead it gave off a warm feeling, like a child returning home to hug its mother, it was a sort of blood relation.

This really was a high quality treasure!

The Spirit King screamed into the air, before launching itself at Yun Yao.

Yun Yao was faster than Chu Tian, her body covered with lightning as she quickly withdrew, all while stimulating the Thunder Spirit Bead.

Hou!

The thunder turned into giant pythons, coming out of the bead, like a thousand thunder snakes charging forward, shooting right for the Spirit King.

Who would have known, the Spirit King let out a fiendish smile, it emitted a blue white flame, holding onto the thunder pythons.

The strange blue white flames, spread across the thunder.

The shocking thunder was actually burnt away!

Turning into a twinkling ash as it floated away!

"Burning away energy!"

"That's the Netherworld Flame!"

"Dammit, it refined the Netherworld Flame!" Mo Yan was shocked and angry as he said, "It's over, it has the Netherworld Flame, our attacks are no use, we're not a match for it!"

Chu Tian could also see the Spirit King's true face, the Spirit King's body was white as paper, it had a red gown draped over it. It was floating in midair, with ten blood red fingernails, its eyes were also blood red, like a scarlet ocean.

"It just woke up so it's weak right now, use the Thunder Spirit Bead to wear it down!"

Yun Yao invoked the Thunder Spirit Bead's power, an endless amount of thunder was formed, instantly covering Yun Yao's body, dozens of lightning bolts, like dozens of poisonous snakes, shot out at the same time right at the Spirit King's body.

The Spirit King lifted a hand and shot out the blue white ghost flame, forming a barrier with the flame, it was wildly resisting the thunder, unexpectedly they were evenly matched.

Mo Yan launched out, his hands were covered in black flames as he attacked from behind the Spirit King. The Spirit King turned around and raised its other hand, even though it was being suppressed by the Thunder Spirit Bead, unexpectedly it could still block Mo Yan's attack.

The three of them were stuck in a deadlock, the Spirit King's almost corporeal body slowly became paler, it was slowly being consumed.

At this time.

The Spirit King screamed into the sky!

Yun Yao and Mo Yan's bodies trembled, as if they had been hit by an invisible giant hammer, they spit out a mouthful of blood before falling down.

The minute the Spirit King broke free.

It ignited the Netherworld Flame.

"Not good!"

Mo Yan and Yun Yao both had a look of panic.

Who would have thought at this crucial moment, Chu Tian would rush forward and stand in front of the Spirit King, an ancient might was released from Chu Tian's body, spirit energy surged forward as a large shadow condensed behind Chu Tian.

What is this?

Yun Yao was shocked!

Was this Chu Tian's source spirit?

But, wasn't his source spirit a sword source spirit?

Once the Spirit King saw the large shadow, it immediately showed a panicked expression. Fear could be felt from the depth of its soul, with its intelligence, it could not understand what this terrifying existence was!

"You can die now!"

The shadow source spirit turned into strength as it all flowed into his body.

Victory or death in one move!

Chu Tian's fist released countless profound runes, as if an ancient might was all condensed into a single fist.

Peng!

After the Spirit King was hit by this invisible energy, a large part of him had caved in. With a mournful cry, its body disappeared into pieces!

Mo Yan let out an astonished expression, "His fist…...it can directly hit a spiritual body!"

Can a human body make contact with a spiritual body?

This was something that went against logic!

But Chu Tian had achieved it, his fist had hit the Spirit King's body, he had turned the Spirit King into pieces with this tyrannical strength!

A normal ordinary youth, how could there be that many secrets hiding in him?

Chapter 74: Netherworld Sword

If the Spirit King was in the outside world, it would be able to easily sweep through Awakened Soul Cultivators. Even being suppressed by the ancient tomb, it was still a hard to defeat existence.

But Chu Tian had defeated it with a single punch!

Yun Yao was shocked speechless, in this world there were certain natural born individuals who had the ability to awaken two source spirits, these kinds of people were an one in a billion kind of rare.

But having twin source spirits wasn't always a good thing!

Because the potential of a person's soul was limited, sometimes it was barely enough to nurture one source spirit, let alone two.

Source spirits represented a cultivator's talent, better to be strong than for there to be more, better to be refined than to be varied.

A strong source spirit could split apart, and can turn into two ordinary source spirits, but that would be a loss rather than a gain.

Chu Tian's two source spirits, whether it was the sword source spirit or the shadow source spirit that just appeared, both of them were top class source spirits, particularly that shadow source spirit that had the strength of a demon god. Because of his cultivation, it was not very clear, but it was at least at the level of a God Level Source Spirit!

He had overdrawn his body strength by summoning his source spirit!

Chu Tian was incredibly weak, he took out the Yuan Essence Grass and swallowed a piece of it.

But it was truly terrifying, if not for Yun Yao using the Thunder Spirit Bead to help weaken the Spirit King, if not for Mo Yan launching a sneak attack to distract the Spirit King, if not for Chu Tian being able to use the Mind's Eye and finding the weak spot of the Spirit King.

Would it have been this easy?

The Spirit King left behind a large spirit core, the spirit core's surface was covered in blue white flames.

"Fire Seed?" Mo Yan's face filled with disappointment, "Originally I thought there would be a mature Netherworld Flame, but who would have thought that the Netherworld Flame would already have been refined by the Spirit King. The difficulty in cultivating a Fire Seed is too high and would require large amounts of time and energy!"

Spirit Fires were not cultivation law weapons, nor were they cultivation techniques.

But it was like a cultivation law weapon and it was like a cultivation technique.

Spirit Fires could be directly used, they would instantly increased the user's strength, but Spirit Fire Seeds needed to be slowly cultivated, the entire process would require massive amounts of resources and time, just like training a cultivation technique.

The ancient grave no longer had a Netherworld Flame.

There was only a thousand year old Netherworld Flame Fire Seed.

From the potential of the Spirit King had refined the Netherworld Flame for a thousand years, it was much stronger than ordinary Netherworld Flames. This was no longer an ordinary Netherworld Flame, it had already absorbed the power of the Spirit King for a thousand years, it had evolved into a thousand year Netherworld Ghost Flame.

If this Fire Seed was properly nurtured, it would definitely be a stronger flame than the Netherworld Flame!

But was nurturing the Fire Seed an easy thing to do?

It would consume resources like a bottomless pit!

Although this was not satisfying, but it was better than nothing, so Mo Yan did not wait to pick up the Fire Seed.

Yun Yao was standing to the side with the Thunder Spirit Bead, her eyes were twinkling as she stared at Mo Yan and Chu Tian. Now that the Thunder Spirit Bead was in her hands, her power had increased several times, she was confident that she could deal with Chu Tian now.

Mo Yan wasn't a threat!

But should she take her revenge now?

Of course Chu Tian was not an idiot, the only reason he threw the Thunder Spirit Bead to Yun Yao was because of the crisis they were in, now that the Spirit King had already been taken care of, Yun Yao had undoubtedly become the largest threat.

Mo Yan saw the atmosphere had become tense, in his heart he felt a bit of fear.

Not good!

If the Purple Lightning Young Master makes a move now.

Even if they collaborate it wouldn't be certain they could block the power of the Thunder Spirit Bead!

Mo Yan looked over at Chu Tian, the minute their eyes met, an understanding formed between them. If the Purple Lightning Young Master attacked one of them, they would work together against her!

The three of them spread out together, they were all wary of the other parties. What they were thinking, only they themselves knew.

At this moment, Mo Yan suddenly thought of something as he moved his head to look in all four directions, "That's strange, Old Brother Wan should not have died, why is he gone?"

That's right!

Where had Wan Wuyi gone?

There was not a trace of Wan Wuyi in the main hall!

Impossible!

He couldn't possibly have left.

He had used his Secret Yin Wind Sword Art, letting him hide himself!

"Not good!" Chu Tian noticed something as he turned to look at Yun Yao, "Behind you!"

Yun Yao's body trembled!

She had been paying full attention to Chu Tian and Mo Yan in fear that they would collaborate against her to steal the Thunder Spirit Bead, she did put any attention into guarding against sneak attacks.

A quick and fierce cold aura exploded out.

A terrifying killing intent surged over.

Yun Yao was startled, she didn't even have time to turn around.

Pu!

A swift and fierce sword qi, stabbed right into her back, flying out through the front, large amounts of blood spilling out!

Yun Yao's beautiful eyes turned round, she could only feel her strength leaving her body as she fell backwards!

"Ha, ha, ha!"

"Mine! It's all mine!"

Wan Wuyi took out a cloth and quickly wrapped up the Thunder Spirit Bead, putting it away in his chest, he walked past Yun Yao's body and stared at Chu Tian and Mo Yan with a face of greed.

Mo Yan revealed a surprised face, "The Purple Lightning Young Master is a member of the Central State Yun Family, are you not afraid of retaliation from Yun Tianhe after killing her?"

"With Yun Tianhe's reputation, who wouldn't be afraid? But there is only us here and dead people will never talk!"

Mo Yan's eyes turned round in shock, "You...."

"You can die now!"

"Yin Wind Soul Slash!"

Wan Wuyi once again displayed his Secret Yin Wind Sword Art, his figure disappeared once again.

Mo Yan's heart filled with amazement, the reputation of the Yin Wind Swordsman was not undeserved, the Secret Yin Wind Sword Art was fast enough to leave not a shadow or trace, it was the best assassination skill in the Southern Summer Country.

Wan Wuyi had cultivated the «Secret Yin Wind Sword Art» for twenty years now, he had long reached the Large Success realm. If Mo Yan was in his normal condition, he would be able to retreat, but now his spirit energy was spent and he suffered heavy injuries from the Spirit King, how could he still escape from the Yin Wind Sword?

"I've been friends with you for so many years, you actually still want to silence me by killing me!"

Mo Yan angrily shouted, two black flames appeared in his hands, preparing to create a barrier around him, but before the flames could close.

A sword light shot through the opening!

Mo Yan's eyes were wide open, the world spinned around him and with a splash he fell on the ground, the last he saw was a familiar looking headless body!

Yun Yao was collapsed in a pool of blood.

Mo Yan had been decapitated.

Wan Wuyi calmly reappeared, picking up the Netherworld Flame spirit core, "Ha, ha, ha, ha, the thousand year Netherworld flame is mine now!"

Such a ruthless fellow!

Chu Tian had underestimated him!

He was this skilled in killing someone to steal their treasure, perhaps this wasn't his first time.

Wan Wuyi's sinister eyes fell onto Chu Tian, "Little brat, I really have to thank you, you guys fought the Spirit King and managed to kill it while being injured, thus giving me an opportunity to swoop in, I really have to thank you! I have to admit, you are much stronger than I imagined, but now that you're this exhausted, can you still block my sword?"

Wan Wuyi didn't know that Chu Tian had already used the thousand year Yuan Essence Grass, his spirit energy had already refilled by half.

Chu Tian still did not dare to be negligent, the strength of the Yin Wind Swordsman was not small, he was a person with experience in the Jianghu. All his skills were very fierce, each one would kill with a single strike, he could not be underestimated.

"My sword is truly fast, you won't feel any pain!"

"I've heard that people that die in the ancient tomb, their souls will never be able to pass on, they will be imprisoned here, in the end they will be turned into an evil spirit, I hope you enjoy it…..Ha, ha, ha, ha!"

Once the words were said.

Sou!

Wan Wuyi instantly vanished!

Just like a invisible cold wind!

This was the strength of the Yin Wind Sword Art, every strike left no shadow or trace, it was impossible to perceive.

Wan Wuyi's achievements in the sword arts were high, not only was it impossible to identify him with the naked eye, even the sound and aura were all hidden, ordinary cultivators had no way to find him.

Chu Tian slowly stepped back, letting his back face a pillar, his eyes swept across the main hall as he coldly said, "Your sword art is only a low grade assassination skill, it cannot even be considered a powerful art!"

"Stubborn fool!"

"I'll let you taste the strength of the Yin Wind Sword Art!"

Wan Wuyi's voice rang out from an undeterminable place, it rang back and forth, it was impossible to figure out where he was. But Chu Tian could feel a wisp of killing intent, his mouth could not help but turn into a sneer, it was impossible for him to suppress his killing intent, this assassination sword art, to say it was low grade was already generous!

"Go and die!"

The minute Wan Wuyi made his move.

"Mind's Eye!"

Chu Tian opened his Mind's Eye, he instantly saw through the attack, the minute Wan Wuyi's sword approached, a fuzzy sword shape appeared behind Chu Tian.

Shua!

Shua!

Two sword light immediately appeared in the air!

One ray of sword light, lacerated Chu Tian's Glass Body and the pillar behind him had a sword mark carved into it.

The other ray of sword light, had split Wan Wuyi's body, from his left shoulder to his right abdomen.

Wan Wuyi stared wide eyed in surprise, his mouth was opening and closing like a fish in water, when the half of his body fell, blood bloomed just like a flower, scattering everywhere.

Dead!

Chu Tian was clutching his deep chest wound, gently coughing twice, he was clearly heavily injured, he walked over to Wan Wuyi's body with difficulty, then he took both the Thunder Spirit Bead and the spirit core.

"The Yin Wind Sword Art is only mediocre!"

Taking out the jade bottle, pouring the Life Essence Water on his wound, the flesh and blood slowly began to creep and immediately the wound closed and the bleeding stopped.

There was no saving Mo Yan.

Chu Tian searched through Mo Yan's body, he found a bunch of bottles and jars. Mo Yan was an alchemy master, he had countless pills and medicines, but for Chu Tian, these things were very poor.

Mo Yan focused on refining poisons, nine of ten bottles were filled with poisonous pills.

At this time, Yun Yao had not died yet, she was in a difficult situation, because of her excessive blood lost, her face turned completely white, "Cold…...I'm so cold…...Am I about to die?"

Yun Yao still had dreams she had not achieved.

She had always been self sustaining, but who would have thought she would die in an unknown place like this.

Yun Yao finally understood her grandfather's warning, the world was too dangerous, what use was natural talent? No wonder the Chu Family, Luo Family, and the Ye Family wouldn't let their young talents go out alone. Geniuses that had not grown up yet could easily be dragged down from the heavens.

If she knew this earlier.

She wouldn't have sneaked out!

Chu Tian lifted Yun Yao up, his hands pulled at her chest and her clothes were ripped open, two snow white peaks were revealed.

On the topic of that, she wasn't on the scale of the young miss, but she was still quite strong, she could easily excite a normal man.

Blood continued to gush out from the wound, making anyone who saw it feel uncomfortable.

Yun Yao could be considered lucky!

Because she had heard the warning, she had dodged by half an inch, so her heart hadn't been pierced through, otherwise she wouldn't have lived until now.

Yun Yao was angry, "What are you doing! Even if I am dying…...You can't violate me like this!"

Chu Tia was holding the jade bottle, he first gave her a bit to drink, then he sprinkled a bit onto her wound.

Yun Yao could clearly feel it, her wound slowly began to itch as the flesh began to heal itself.

"You..." Yun Yao's face filled with disbelief, "Why did you save me?"

"That's right!" Chu Tian patted his head, "I must be going crazy, why did I save you? I must be possessed! I wasted half a bottle of my Life Essence Water!"

Yun Yao was so angry she almost spat out blood, "Isn't it only a bottle of Life Essence Water? Once you come to Central State City, I'll give you 10 bottles!"

Chu Tian had a face of disbelief, "Don't think that I don't know, you're still planning to kill me in your heart!"

Yun Yao's face turned slightly red, "I was thinking about killing you! But…..You've saved my life, so now we can call it even!"

"Do you mean what you say?"

"I won't gain anything from killing you!"

"Alright, I'll believe you this time!" Chu Tian cast another look at her large and white chest.

Yun Yao quickly drew her clothes together, but she discovered that her clothes had already been crudely ripped by Chu Tian, there was no way for her to cover the view, she could only block with her hands as she angrily stared at Chu Tian, "Manage your eyes!"

"It's not that rare, I've seen bigger!" Chu Tian scoffed letting Yun Yao feel hate enough to make her teeth ache, he then threw over a cloth covered package to her, "You can have this thing!"

Yun Yao showed an excited expression, as if she had found a treasure as she held the Thunder Spirit Bead, "You're really giving this to me?"

"What this about giving this to you? You're thinking too positively, I've wronged you! Anyway I have no use for it, with this in your hand, at least you can be of some help!"

Wronged?

Then just wrong me for a hundred years!

With this treasure in my hand, you shouldn't think of taking it back!

Yun Yao rubbed the dust off the Thunder Spirit Bead, her beautiful face filled with pleasant surprise. The reason she participated in this dangerous journey was all because she heard that there was a Thunder Spirit Bead in the ancient tomb.

Accomplishing her goals this time, her grandfather will definitely be surprised!

Actually Chu Tian was testing Yun Yao.

If after Yun Yao obtained the Thunder Spirit Bead, she let out any bit of killing intent, Chu Tian wouldn't have been forgiving and he would have killed this girl on the spot.

From this distance, he wouldn't miss.

From Yun Yao's appearance, she was only pleasantly surprised and did not display any other emotions, Chu Tian felt relaxed.

The Thunder Spirit Bead truly was a treasure, it's a shame that Chu Tian could not use it. He had no one on his side that could use it, if he went straight to the third floor of the ancient tomb.

A single Spirit King was already this difficult to deal with!

The Corpse King would be ten times harder at least!

He truly had no idea how powerful it would be!

Frankly, Chu Tian felt a bit of regret, but he he had no way to stop it. To be honest, he had already been daring with his words and agreed to the bronze masked old man's request, running away was not his style.

Yun Yao was not weak, with the Thunder Spirit Bead, she would be able to increase the odds of success going against the Corpse King.

Yun Yao was finding it harder and harder to see through Chu Tian, "What are you called?"

"Lu Ren."

"Passerby?" Yun Yao rolled her eyes in her heart, he's truly worthy of that name, it's really a good name, "I was just watching you fight Wan Wuyi, you were able to completely see through his moves, as if you were using…...the Mind's Eye?"

Chu Tian was casually picking up the spirit cores one by one as he casually said, "That's right, it's the Mind's Eye!"

Yun Yao's body trembled.

As she felt a bitter feeling.

She had always thought that she was talented, but not that she had met this "Passerby", she finally realized that her thoughts were nothing more than a joke!

Mind's Eye!

The skill that her Grandfather dreamed about!

This kind of unknown "Passerby" actually knew how to use it!

Yun Yao was not convinced the whole time, but now she no longer thought this way. Dual source spirits, able to open the Mind's Eye, and such a strong defense cultivation technique, all these were enough to convince Yun Yao.

"Yi? There's a secret hall over here!"

"Come help me!"

Chu Tian had found a secret door, the two of them worked together to open it. When the secret hall opened, the two of them stared on dumbfounded.

In the secret hall, there were a massive amount of materials and weapons, the sheer quantity was enough to shock people.

It was a pity though.

Because many years had passed and these materials had not been treated with any special preservation techniques, everything was decayed, except for a single item…..

Chu Tian was attracted with a single glance.

Atop a high throne, there was a single ancient and plain long sword.

Although it had been here a thousand years.

It did not have a single speck of dust on it!

A three foot long blade, as beautiful as crystal jade, covered in profound runes, an ancient and powerful aura spilled out from the sword.

Yun Yao muttered, "This ancient sword is...."
