Chapter 761 I Must Have Been Influenced by That Dog

 

This was because, before entering the Door of Life, the powers of wind, chaotic thunder liquid, and [Supreme Ice Flame] in his body were in an agitated state and confronted one another, practically suppressing all of his yuan qi cultivation and causing his Yuan Qi True-Self Doppelganger to freeze. Later, in order to conceal his wanted criminal status, he sealed his inner yuan qi completely and thus avoided a series of hunt-downs.

If he hastily undid the seal, his status might be exposed in a moment's time.

He could not guarantee that the Celestial Phoenix Maiden did not have a copy of the Alliance of Domains' wanted list on her, and all the more could not guarantee that she would let him off after finding out his real identity.

Besides, he saw that she had no intention of remaining in this place, apparently because there were still things she needed to find in the deeper parts of the mountain forest.

Should I really pass up such a good opportunity so easily?

He felt a reluctance inside.

There would certainly not be a next time after passing up such a good opportunity once. If even a Quasi-emperor could perish in this place, Ye Qingyu did not believe that he would have another chance to enter the Door of Life.

But...

What could he do?

His mouth watered in envy as he watched the golden Phoenix in the Celestial Phoenix Maiden's hand swallowing the world yuan qi, but he knew that it was impossible to borrow the Phoenix and use its stored yuan qi for his own purposes. For a time, he jumped up and down out of anxiety, before a moment came when his eyes lit up. He had thought of a workable method.

With a thought in his mind, he summoned out the hundred and eight ancient characters.

The [Cloud Top Cauldron] appeared on his palm.

This cauldron is magical like no other and unbreakably solid. It protected my life in the Fallen God Abyss and has always seemed as if anything can be placed inside it. Perhaps it may work...

He recited the ancient characters to activate the cauldron.

A golden sand-like mist began to circulate gently.

The cauldron suddenly began to vibrate and came out from the dantian world. Turning into the size of a fist, it landed on Ye Qingyu's palm and spun around repeatedly. Although it could not be seen clearly, a sharp something which was not inferior to that of the golden Phoenix in the Celestial Phoenix Maiden's hand burst out.

The next moment, the Fiendgod power of laws and landscape spirit, together with the soul-like white misty qi in the entire plane, frenziedly gathered from all directions and surged directly into the [Cloud Top Cauldron].

Haha... it really works!

Ye Qingyu was delighted.

This [Cloud Top Cauldron] is truly the most precious treasure of all.

It can do anything.

Like a greedy python, the [Cloud Top Cauldron] had swallowed the primeval world's laws and yuan qi unbridledly, becoming a yuan qi funnel in a mere instant. It was now as large as a dragon, and its voice sounded like the cries of dragons and tigers.

Beside him, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden became aware of the activity. Turning her head to take a look at Ye Qingyu and the cauldron in his hand, a sliver of astoundment flashed across her eyes.

This was the second time she revealed this kind of expression.

The boundless yuan qi frenziedly gathered toward the duo like two hurricane wind pillars.

The two figures proceeded along the mountain terrain and walked down.

Along the way were luxuriant and dense jungles. Some of the trees had trunks as thin as fishing rods, while others required a dozen-odd men to be able to surround. There were still others which had red-colored fruits that were even brighter and shinier than blood-colored agates and looked highly tempting.

The calm jungle, layered mountains, vigorous trees, blue sky, and clear waters put together a quiet and pleasant scene like that of an otherworldly paradise, causing Ye Qingyu to feel relaxed in body and soul.

At the same time, he noticed that everything that could be seen in this world was soaked in and nourished by the power of laws and world spirit essence, and was filled with yuan qi and divine essence, whether it be a wild flower, a drop of the clear spring, a gust of wind, or a cloud.

Everything was indeed preserved in a primeval elegance. All plants grown here were different from those in foreign domains, and were all very rare varieties. Although he had read many books which depicted the primeval Fiendgods, Ye Qingyu still could not recognize many of the varieties and names.

But this did not hinder his maniacal absorption of everything.

He had truly gone mad.

By activating the formula of the ancient characters, he took away everything he could see, whether it be spiritual qi, power of laws, plants, stones, or sand grains. All he had to do was to order the [Cloud Top Cauldron] to keep them.

Not a blade of grass was left wherever he passed by, much like when a swarm of locusts entered an area.

Seeing this scene, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden staggered and nearly collapsed on the floor.

Approximate thirty minutes later.

"Stop," the Celestial Phoenix Maiden spoke.

"Huh?" Ye Qingyu looked at her.

"This part of the world is the only plane of the Fiendgod Age in the present." The Celestial Phoenix Maiden kept the golden Phoenix and did not continue absorbing the world laws and yuan qi power all around.

Ye Qingyu understood what she meant.

In this last primeval world of the Fiendgod Age, collecting a bit of the opportunity was sufficient. After all, there was a limit to one's fortunes, and it would be harmful to one's self to take away this entire part of the world. Moreover, some of this kind of fortune should be left to the future generations. Every portion taken was one portion less for others.

After some thought, Ye Qingyu kept his [Cloud Top Cauldron].

Dammit, I must have been influenced by that dog. I was never this greedy... He could not help thinking about the silly dog Little Nine, and felt that he had been influenced by it.

But at the same time, his perception of the Celestial Phoenix Maiden finally became much more favorable.

Although this woman is cold and indifferent, and perhaps permanently this way, she's most definitely a good person.

After keeping the cauldron, the duo proceeded forth with Ye Qingyu in front.

Thirty minutes later, they reached a lakeside which was surrounded by a large stretch of mountain rocks and willows.

Embellished between the mountains was what seemed like a huge piece of transparent crystal. The lake surface, which was close to a kilometer in perimeter, was as glossy as a mirror, such that the spirit fishes and green rocks underwater could be seen clearly.

A breeze swept past, causing ripples on the surface which reflected the clouds and mountain rocks. Like fine lines of silk, the ripples undulated gently and dissipated in all directions.

Walking between the lake and the forest, Ye Qingyu suddenly paused his footsteps.

A smell of blood...

He had smelled an indistinct trace of blood in the air which contained an incomparably pure amount of world yuan qi at that earlier moment.

Could a battle have taken place in the space ahead?

The duo quickly followed in the direction where the smell of blood came from.

After several kilometers or so of following along the lakeside.

Ye Qingyu finally paused his footsteps beside a bushy mountain pass.

A terrifying murderous spirit circulated endlessly in the air.

In the distance.

The residual aura of an Immortal Step realm pinnacle expert surged within an incomplete formation shrouded by the smell of blood.

Lying within was a black-robed corpse, with a savage face and angry features, that had long been soaked in blood.

Ye Qingyu walked several steps up to the formation, and only then saw clearly that the corpse was not human, albeit its outline seemed so.

On both sides of his forehead were two monstrous horns which were as long as a thumb and seemed like two black stone pieces. The two eyes did not contain sclerae like those of regular humans, and only had pupils which seemed more like two inlaid pieces of dark crystals.

The black, film-like skin all over the body appeared to be in a shriveled state. There was no sign of flesh or meridian under the skin, and all there was was a completely intact black skeleton which was similar in structure to that of humans.

It's the guardian of the Black Demon Race princess!

Ye Qingyu was suddenly shocked.

Although he had never seen the real face of a Black Demon Race expert, he had read in some secret records that the Black Demon Race relied on their innate and cultivated Black Demon qi to support their bodies. After their deaths, the Black Demon qi would leak out of the body and completely dissipate, causing their bodies to quickly become shriveled.

Upon recognizing the identity of the corpse, Ye Qingyu made another shocking discovery.

Although the head and body of this corpse were intact, the viscera in his abdomen area had strangely disappeared like the others!

It was the same situation yet again.

Where have the viscera gone?

Someone has actually killed a member of the Black Demon Race.

Who would dare to touch a Black Demon Race member in the 18th district of the Black Demon Abyss?

Ye Qingyu was terribly alarmed.

Most importantly, he noticed that the bones in the body were pure black...

This...

He frowned.

And realized something.

Instead, the Celestial Phoenix Maiden did not remain and had already proceeded ahead.

Shaking his head, Ye Qingyu's expression became grim like never before.

After walking for some time, he revealed a look of shock once more.

In the distance.

A giant temple, which was made of gray copper and was completely of a metallic texture, was standing tall at the peak of a jagged and precipitous mountain range whose cliffs were lined with pine trees and cypresses.

The temple stood a kilometer high and had a primitive exterior. It revealed an extremely mysterious and vicissitudinal essence, as if it had gone through tens of millions of years of chaos and had been standing tall since the creation of the universe.

Except for a few lifelike ancient fierce beast carvings from the Fiendgod Age, there were no murals or other embellishments on the four copper walls.

Having been through tens of millions of years and received moistening from the world yuan qi, these carvings were close to becoming living things. They formed a vast and terrifying murderous spirit which surged all around the temple and bore down directly at the duo, as if it wanted to annihilate everything within its proximity.

Meanwhile, there was also a fog-like chaotic qi revolving around the temple. It clashed indistinctly with the world power of laws in the surroundings, forming an extremely bizarre force field.

"Do not go near that temple." The Celestial Phoenix Maiden's chilly voice sounded.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Ye Qingyu felt the murderous spirit which contained apocalyptic power as his hair rose to their ends.

Throughout this journey, although the Celestial Phoenix Maiden had not spoken much, she would disclose some extremely important information at crucial moments, and thus Ye Qingyu was highly trusting of her warnings.

The only problem was that this was the first time he had seen a temple which contained such a volatile murderous spirit yet did not reveal any sign of life. He was hence a little curious and had to take a few more looks at it.

"Is that... a palm print?!"

Abruptly shocked, Ye Qingyu revealed a disbelieving expression.

He once again looked at the temple with his vision that emitted a purple light halo.

There was a one-hundred-meter-odd tall palm print which was clearly visible and emitted a heart-palpitating aura on the left copper wall of the temple. Ye Qingyu then discovered a distinct sword mark, which was also one hundred meters long, several hundred meters away from the palm print.

The sword mark meandered its way to the top and nearly reached the ceiling. It, too, contained a terrifying residual aura.
