Chapter 583: Chapter 581: The Terrifying Void Nine-headed Insect! Xiao Yudie’s Mistake
Key?
Qing Yu was a bit curious, as she had never been to a place like this before.
Xiao Yudie, however, understood immediately and directly took out a wooden sword engraved with many intricate patterns.
"Here, this is the key my master gave me."
So it was her master who had ventured here before?
Upon seeing the key, Lu Ye was already ninety percent certain in his heart.
He had seen similar keys on others before.
And at that time, he had encountered a Void Nine-headed Insect still in its single-head stage.
He just didn’t know what stage the Void Insect had grown to this time.
Moments later, the three of them crossed the stream and arrived at a valley. Xiao Yudie said, "There should be an array nearby. You don’t need the key to enter, only to exit."
At that moment, a storm seemed to be brewing in the distant sky again.
"Another storm turbulence is forming. Should we enter the valley now?" She withdrew her gaze and asked.
She had completely entrusted Lu Ye to make decisions now.
"Let’s go in. You take out the key. If we find anything amiss after entering, we leave immediately."
After a brief moment of contemplation, Lu Ye slowly replied.
At this moment, because he didn’t know what the situation was inside, Lu Ye’s expression grew unusually serious.
If the Void Nine-headed Insect was less than four heads, he was somewhat confident; even if he couldn’t kill it, he could still retreat safely with the two of them.
But if it was more than four heads...
The pressure would be immense.
The best option might be to leave immediately using the teleportation array activated by the wooden sword key.
Seeing the man who had recently cut down a Celestial Realm Middle Stage Tree Demon with his warm wine so serious, Xiao Yudie also felt uncertain.
"I’ll still give you the key then. Here, you can activate the array directly if you think the situation isn’t right."
In the next moment, Xiao Yudie directly took out the key and handed it to Lu Ye.
She was worried that if the key was in her hands, a delay of a second or two could be fatal.
Seeing this, Lu Ye accepted it without refusal.
"Let’s go in. The storm is already heading this way."
Finding the teleportation array, the surroundings were somewhat naturally concealed by shrubs and the like.
The three entered it and stood on top. The next instant, they had disappeared from the original spot.
Not long after, a whirlwind slightly smaller than the storm turbulence they encountered on the first day roared through the area, leaving a mess all around.
The concealment of shrubs around the array was completely destroyed as the whirlwind passed.
Exposing the teleportation array that could no longer hide completely...
Meanwhile, after brief dizziness in their minds, Lu Ye and the others’ view changed to a different scene.
This was a valley about the size of a football field, filled with a white fog familiar to Lu Ye, which heavily obscured both vision and perception.
In front were indeed several medicine gardens, each planted with various Spirit Medicines, protected by shields.
Seeing this scene, Lu Ye felt a sense of familiarity sweeping over him.
"This is it. My master said when she came here before, she sensed danger approaching and couldn’t withstand it, so she only took a little Spirit Medicine and left," Xiao Yudie confidently said after glancing around.
Lu Ye had already seen the first medicine garden with indeed three or four vacant Spirit Medicine planting spots.
That must have been where Xiao Yudie’s master intervened last time.
However, after twenty years, the Spirit Medicines did not regrow by themselves, but the shields were fully self-repaired.
Not sensing any impending danger for now, Lu Ye glanced at the valley entrance and asked.
"What realm was your master in when she came before?"
After a moment of thought, Xiao Yudie recalled and said, "I think it was around Celestial Realm Fifth Layer."
On hearing this, Lu Ye immediately said, "Then what are we waiting for? Quickly break the shield and take as many Spirit Medicines as you can!"
What time was it back then?
Twenty years ago!
Even at that time, Xiao Yudie’s Celestial Realm Fifth Layer master felt threatened...
After twenty years, the Void Nine-headed Insect perhaps still hidden around the valley, what level would it be?
Comparable to the Celestial Realm Seventh or Eighth Layer, or Celestial Realm Perfection, or even higher...
After Lu Ye spoke, he immediately chose the Spirit Medicine garden with the most sturdy shield and swiftly attacked it. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
On hearing Lu Ye’s reminder and knowing that time was precious, Xiao Yudie and Qing Yu each picked a garden shield and began to attack fiercely.
In an instant, three streams of Source Qi Power surged within the valley.
Amidst the mist outside the valley, something seemed to exist, gradually being stirred awake by the commotion.
With Lu Ye’s strength, he had the fastest speed in breaching the shields.
Soon, a small gap opened, and he continuously extracted Spirit Medicines from it one by one.
Moments later, Xiao Yudie’s side also successfully brought good news.
"Phew..."
Exerting all her efforts in a short time exhausted Xiao Yudie.
But seeing the small gap she had opened and the abundant Spirit Medicine aura within, she exhibited a satisfied smile.
At this time, the mist at the valley entrance had already begun to spread further into the valley.
Fortunately, the speed was not too fast.
At this moment, Qing Yu finally exerted full effort and opened a small gap.
The fastest Lu Ye had already completed a whole garden with over a dozen high-grade Spirit Medicines.
The next instant, Lu Ye unhesitatingly went to the second medicine garden.
After Celestial Realm Second Layer, the instantaneous destructive power was much stronger than during entry in Earth Realm.
Not long after, Lu Ye breached another garden, completely racing against time.
Meanwhile, the white mist gradually intruded, and something seemed to have fully awoken with it.
Lu Ye’s heart inexplicably gave a warning.
"That thing should be coming... Let’s go quickly."
Whatever could pose such a threat was evidently above the Bloodthirsty Tree Demon; Lu Ye had no lingering thoughts, immediately calling the others to prepare to leave.
The next moment, snatching two Spirit Medicines suitable for Celestial Realm, Lu Ye reached the stone platform carved with the teleportation array.
Qing Yu was the first to arrive; as Lu Ye started speaking, she didn’t hesitate at all, even abandoning half-pulled Spirit Medicine.
As Lu Ye was about to place the key into the slot to activate the array and leave, he noticed...
Xiao Yudie was still straining to pull out Spirit Medicine, while the mist had already reached halfway into the valley.
