Chapter 930: Chapter 929: White Bone Altar, Mass Grave
The scene fell into a momentary dead silence.
"Swish!"
A dazzling sword light burst out with a terrifying roar as Miss Jiu made her move.
The licentious thief who had just been shouting about toying with Miss Jiu was directly chopped into pieces by her.
The remaining individuals were once again frightened.
Except for Ye Chen...
This great beauty, who seemed extremely innocent, turned out to be so strong...
"Miss Jiu, leave none alive!"
Ye Chen shouted as the Infinite Star Sword Array shot out from his Storage Ring.
The power of the Sword Array completely sealed the remaining people, giving them no chance to escape.
Ye Chen raised his sword, charging and slicing through, while Miss Jiu was no slower. Within just a few breaths, everyone who had come with Liu Yang was dead.
After the battle ended.
Miss Jiu looked at Ye Chen, a mysterious excitement appearing on her face.
Ye Chen: "This bunch of worthless scum, killing a Holy Realm Evil Spirit is much more rewarding."
Miss Jiu kept shaking her head.
Ye Chen: "What are you trying to say?"
Miss Jiu: "Ye Xiu Luo, is this what they call pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger? How fun!"
Ye Chen: ???
Disregarding Miss Jiu’s fascination with her new experience of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, Ye Chen found all the Storage Rings of Liu Yang and his people.
Unfortunately...
There was not much Evil Spirit Essence inside their Spirit Storage Beads, and combining them all only lit up the second star on the surface of Ye Chen’s Spirit Storage Bead.
"Let’s go."
Miss Jiu responded with a nod and immediately delved into the forbidden zone with Ye Chen.
A moment later, Ye Chen couldn’t help but ask, "Are you not going to attend to your injuries?"
Miss Jiu shook her head, saying, "Next time I pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger, I won’t add new wounds, let this one stay for now."
Ye Chen was helpless.
Who told you that acting must result in injuries...
Foolish girl.
Seeing the happy look on Miss Jiu’s face, Ye Chen said nothing more.
Happy... is good!
"By the way, those earlier were walking the Flesh Dao, they should be part of the Body Alliance, right? You have a grudge with them, so you must not be from the Body Alliance; therefore, you must be from the Martial Alliance." Miss Jiu said triumphantly, believing she had guessed everything right.
Ye Chen: "How do you know they came for me? Maybe they were just looking to trouble you."
Miss Jiu: "One of them clearly said the shame of that day must be washed clean with your life!"
Ye Chen: "And someone also said you look pretty and wanted to take you away!"
Miss Jiu: "..."
"You are so much like someone!"
"Who?"
"That bastard Liu Mubai who seduced my Sister Yanran, he also always antagonizes me!"
"Not really... I’m much better looking than him."
"You are even more despicable than him!"
......
"Miss, we’ve searched up and down the hundred-mile range of the forbidden zone perimeter three times already, what exactly are you looking for?" An old lady of the Martial Alliance asked, looking puzzled at Xu Yanran.
Xu Yanran’s delicate brows furrowed.
According to information, newcomers of the Body Alliance were all operating within the outer hundred-mile range.
But Ye Chen... where did he go?
Besides Ye Chen, Miss Jiu couldn’t be found either.
Could something have happened?
Xu Yanran felt restless and said, "I’ll delve deeper to continue searching, you go tell them I’ll be a bit late."
"Miss, this is a serious matter. The Enlightenment Tea Tree appears once every millennium; Ten Thousand Islands Sect, Spirit Alliance, Body Alliance have all begun to move. If we don’t act now, the Enlightenment Tea Tree will be completely beyond our reach."
The old lady continued: "Miss, we can’t delay any longer. The situation in the Martial Alliance is already like fire and water. If the Alliance Leader can’t advance further, the breakup of the Martial Alliance is imminent... The Enlightenment Tea Tree is the Alliance Leader’s hope, and the hope of the Martial Alliance!"
Xu Yanran took a deep breath and said, "Let’s go!"
......
Ye Chen and Miss Jiu traveled rapidly, unknowingly having already journeyed over three hundred miles into the forbidden zone.
Miss Jiu appeared perplexed, saying, "How strange, why haven’t we encountered even one Holy Realm Evil Spirit..."
Ye Chen: "Be patient."
Miss Jiu nodded and said, "Take a rest, I’ll use a Secret Technique to see if I can find any clues."
With that, Miss Jiu sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, with long eyelashes trembling slightly. A layer of hazy light gradually appeared on her body, making her look otherworldly, like an Immortal Fairy untouched by dust.
Even with Ye Chen’s discerning eye, he had to admit that Miss Jiu was quite a beauty.
Simple.
Kind-hearted.
Occasionally a bit ditzy...
A moment later.
Miss Jiu stopped the operation of the Secret Technique, opened her eyes, and found Ye Chen staring at her. A smug curve appeared on her lips, "Am I good-looking?"
Ye Chen: "Two eyes, a mouth, two ears, and a nose, no different from ordinary people."
Miss Jiu, enraged, trembled in her chest.
"Ye Xiu Luo, at this rate, no girl will like you, hmph!"
Ye Chen chuckled and asked, "Any findings?"
"Yes!"
Speaking of serious matters, Miss Jiu no longer quarreled with Ye Chen, earnestly saying, "Towards the front-right there are special fluctuations; I’ll use Qi Observation Technique to confirm the exact location."
"You know Qi Observation Technique too?"
Miss Jiu replied, "A little bit."
With that, a layer of dreamy light appeared in Miss Jiu’s eyes as her hands made continuous seals, using the power of Pupil Technique to observe the subtle fluctuations of aura existing in mystery.
Ye Chen was somewhat familiar with Pupil Techniques too.
He could confirm that Miss Jiu was using Pupil Technique rather than any kind of eye-related Divine Techniques.
Moreover, Miss Jiu’s Pupil Technique was at least stronger than the eye talents of that opportunistic woman Hong Mei from the outer seas.
It’s clearly not as simple as Miss Jiu claiming she knew a little; her mastery was evidently deep.
"Follow me."
Relying on Pupil Technique for Qi observation, Miss Jiu confirmed the precise location and immediately led Ye Chen in a direction.
The journey continued for about ten miles before Miss Jiu halted, pointing at a patch of fragmented ground, saying, "There’s something underneath."
Ye Chen had already looked with the Martial Arts Celestial Eye, saying, "It’s not an Evil Spirit."
What it specifically is, even the Martial Arts Celestial Eye couldn’t fully discern immediately, though it felt connected to the human race.
Miss Jiu said, "Dig it open to see!"
Ye Chen nodded, and immediately controlled the Infinite Star Sword Array to shoot out, swiftly excavating the broken ground using the power of the sword array.
Gradually, a circular altar built entirely of white bones appeared before Ye Chen’s sight.
The altar was only as large as a regular round table.
On top of the altar lay a Bone Saber crafted from the same white bones!
"The evil power sealed within is incredibly terrifying; aside from evil power, there’s also the intertwined aura of human Qi Blood and soul..."
Miss Jiu’s expression was quite serious, without saying a word, Pupil Technique was once again activated as her hands quickly formed seals, threads of light flowing from her eyes, merging into the ground, extending towards the white-bone altar.
During this process, Ye Chen didn’t disturb her.
While the Martial Arts Celestial Eye was powerful, the key was that Miss Jiu knew more about these matters than himself.
A short amount of time passed.
The light in Miss Jiu’s eyes dissipated, her complexion pale, letting out a muffled groan, her figure staggered back.
Ye Chen quickly supported her and asked, "What is it?"
Miss Jiu took a deep breath and said, "Mass Grave, Evil Spirit Emperor Weapon!"
