Chapter 195: Chapter 196: Undying Creatures

Clan Leader Yuh’s expression was grim. The prodigies of the Feather Race remained silent, their eyes filled with killing intent as they glanced at Ye Wushuang. Only then did they step into the passage, where they were enveloped by a nine-colored divine light, their figures gradually fading away. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Once this small interlude was over, the disciples from the various factions continued to file into the passage. As for the leaders of those factions, they were each lost in their own thoughts.

On the Ancient Spirit Sect’s side, Nangong Liuyun cast a curious glance at Pann Wu before saying to Ye Wushuang and the others, "You all should head in, too."

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang clasped his hands in a respectful gesture before walking toward the passage. Following behind him were not only Pann Wu, but also Jian Bufan, Ye Rou, Qianling, Yang Qing’er, and Qiu Mo.

Since they had parted ways at the Demon Abyss, Qianling had refined all the Spirit Medicine obtained from the Cangyun Secret Realm into Treasure Pills.

With the help of these elixirs, their strength had undergone a world-shaking transformation, which put Ye Wushuang’s mind at ease.

Upon stepping into the passage, Ye Wushuang’s body was instantly enveloped by the nine-colored divine light. A peculiar power surrounded him, making his body feel weightless.

It wasn’t just him; the others experienced the same thing, looks of amazement appearing on their faces.

"After we enter the Earth Palace, focus on your training. While you’re getting stronger, you must protect yourselves."

Ye Wushuang looked at them with a solemn expression.

The Earth Palace was fraught with hidden dangers and unpredictable perils. With no Sect backing them, strength was the only thing that mattered. If they encountered a fatal crisis, no one could save them.

"You have to be careful, too. We’ll look for you after we get inside," Ye Rou said worriedly. Ye Wushuang had offended the Feather Race and the Demon Abyss; those people would definitely not let the matter rest.

"These are some Healing Treasure Pills. They’re just Low-Grade Treasure Pills, but they should be of great help to you."

Qianling handed a Jade Bottle to Ye Wushuang.

’Treasure Pills?’

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang’s eyes lit up.

Above Ninth-Grade Spiritual Pills were Treasure Pills. Very few people possessed even one, yet Qianling had just given him an entire bottle.

During training, injuries were inevitable. With Healing Treasure Pills, he could recover in a short amount of time.

Ye Wushuang didn’t stand on ceremony and accepted it.

Then, within the nine-colored divine light, their figures vanished.

"Don’t worry, kid. Leave the big guy to Lord Cat. Lord Cat will take good care of him," the Dragon Cat said lazily from its perch on Pann Wu’s shoulder, feeling no shame at all.

Pann Wu grinned, amused by the Dragon Cat. However, seeing Ye Wushuang’s figure about to disappear, he quickly added, "Lord Priest, I’ll find you once we’re in the Earth Palace."

"You two be careful."

Ye Wushuang managed to say before his body was pulled away by some force and vanished.

He then felt himself traveling at the speed of light. After an unknown amount of time, the nine-colored divine light gradually faded, and the scenery before him began to change.

BOOM!

The void around him trembled with a hum, ejecting his body from it.

Suddenly, Ye Wushuang found himself in a strange world. It was a vast, boundless expanse in all directions, with no end in sight. The landscape was filled with rolling mountain ranges and towering ancient trees. From time to time, heaven-shaking beast roars and strange, piercing shrieks would echo through the air.

An ancient, desolate aura permeated the air, giving one a sense of the great vicissitudes of time.

As his feet touched the ground, Ye Wushuang released his Divine Sense, quickly scanning his surroundings to guard against ambushes from creatures or other unknown dangers, while also trying to determine his location.

Because the teleportation was random, everyone who entered had been sent to a different location within the Earth Palace. Ye Wushuang had no idea where he was now.

He then retracted his Divine Sense and sped off into the distance.

After fifteen minutes, Ye Wushuang was still weaving through the Ancient Forest but hadn’t seen a single soul. It was as if this Earth Palace World was truly endless.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a series of terrifying explosions echoed from ahead. A blood-red radiance shot into the sky as if to pierce the firmament. Shockwaves of terrifying energy rolled toward him, spreading from far to near. Greatly alarmed, Ye Wushuang immediately suppressed his aura and cautiously advanced.

As he drew closer, the sound of the explosions became clearer, and he could faintly make out roars and the clang of collisions within the din.

RUMBLE!

A hundred li ahead, the blood-red radiance was blazing intensely. Waves of terrifying Demon Power had laid waste to the land in a radius of several li.

ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!

A series of bestial roars resounded. Ye Wushuang focused his gaze and saw a colossal Demon Beast within the bloody light, roaring with its head thrown back. The rolling sound waves seemed powerful enough to collapse the heavens.

It was a Blood-Winged Demon Tiger. A pair of blood-red wings, three to four zhang long, stretched across the void. Behind it, a massive, bloody tail, like a sharp barb, was aimed at the space before it. Its ferocious head was also tilted upward, revealing long, sharp fangs as it roared viciously.

In the void before it was a gray, illusory figure, identical in shape to a human. Its body was phantasmal, yet it gave off a contradictory sense of being real.

The figure held a long spear, its pair of blood-red eyes staring fiercely at the Blood-Winged Demon Tiger.

ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!

The Blood-Winged Demon Tiger let out a sky-shattering roar and took flight. Blood-red light erupted from its body as its Demon Power surged to the heavens like a vast ocean, rushing toward the gray phantom.

The gray phantom dove down as well. Its spear trembled, and an incomparably terrifying sharpness rained down from the sky, continuously clashing with the blood-red radiance.

BOOM! BOOM!

The two attacks constantly collided and annihilated each other. The void itself trembled as terrifying shockwaves swept out in all directions, obliterating space in their path.

This left the distant Ye Wushuang utterly astonished.

Through his Divine Sense, he could tell that this Blood-Winged Demon Tiger was a Seventh-Level Demon Beast, comparable to the Spiritual Spring Realm. However, the phantom was also incredibly terrifying.

"If I can’t have the Ghost Fruit, then neither can you, you damned Evil Spirit!"

The Blood-Winged Demon Tiger sent out a powerful wave of Divine Sense, roaring furiously. Its bloody tail, like a spear of slaughter, shot out unexpectedly, piercing toward the gray figure.

BANG!

The sharp tip of the bloody tail was terrifying, piercing through the void and directly impaling and annihilating the gray phantom’s body.

But in an instant, the gray phantom reformed as if it hadn’t been harmed at all. Its spear descended from the sky to suppress and kill. Though illusory, the weapon possessed a tangible killing power, forcefully piercing one of the Blood-Winged Demon Tiger’s bloody wings and causing it to shriek in pain.

Terrifying demonic light erupted violently from its body, obliterating the gray figure in the void.

However, to Ye Wushuang’s astonishment, the gray figure re-formed once again, as if it were unkillable.

’An Evil Spirit? Could this be one of the legendary Undying Creatures?’

Ye Wushuang watched the gray phantom die and revive again and again. Alarmed, he prepared to retreat.

Just then, however, he noticed the gray phantom staring greedily at something behind the Blood-Winged Demon Tiger.

When Ye Wushuang followed its gaze, a fruit shimmering with gray light came into view, emitting a strange power.

This power was exceptionally unique; it made Ye Wushuang’s very soul feel soothed.

’A Top-Grade Treasure Medicine! Is that the Ghost Fruit the Blood-Winged Demon Tiger was talking about?’

Ye Wushuang望着这一颗奇异果子,当即停下了脚步.
