Unrivaled Medicine God, page 438
“So that’s what it is! Scared me to death! This freak phenomenon is also a bit too scary.”
The martial artists in Asura City were replaced by new ones very quickly. But there were always some wily old foxes that have stayed in this place for a very long time.
This sort of freak phenomenon happened once every ten years. They were already accustomed to the unusual.
But currently, the Asura Arena’s seventh level was very lively. A large group of martial artists was gathered here. They were all the various mighty exalts’ slaughter generals who were summoned to come to come to the seventh level, and waiting to enter the Heavenly Slaughter Pit.
The red light beam that descended from the sky actually connected straight to here.
“Wu He, ten years ago, you lost more than half of your old life in the Heavenly Slaughter Pit. You still dare to go in this time?” A martial artist wearing black martial attire said.
The expression of that person opposite darkened and he said with a cold snort, “Li Dao, don’t think I don’t know that you duped ten fellow companions at Blackfiend Mountain before walking out from there. I want to know, how many are you planning on scamming this time?”
The moment these words came out, the expressions of the few people behind Li Dao all changed. These words had somewhat of an ulterior motive.
That Li Dao’s face changed and he said furiously, “Wu He, don’t go slandering people!”
Wu He said with a cold smile, “Heh, whether it’s slandering or not, you’re aware of it yourself.”
This Wu He and Li Dao belonged to two different exalts’ camp, arguing the moment they met. The two people had the trend of going to fight at a word of disagreement.
“Huhu, the two of you talk lesser. This Heavenly Slaughter Pit is a treasure land and also a dangerous area. Wealth and opportunity come with danger. Anything happening wouldn’t make people surprised.” At this time, an old man whose hair and beard were all white spoke up to mediate.
Indeed, the moment he spoke, Li Dao and Wu He both gave a cold snort and shut their mouths, clearly deeply fearful of him.
“En? Someone else is coming. It’s Exalt Si Yin’s people .”
“Heh, in these ten years, Exalt Si Yin doesn’t have any sense of existence at all. Her strength is also the weakest among the exalts. You never know, she might perish inside this time!”
“The Heavenly Slaughter Pit is also incomparably dangerous to exalts. There would be people perishing inside virtually every time. This time, the one with the greatest likelihood is Exalt Si Yin! As long as she falls, our chance will be here.”
There was a small section of the slaughter generals whose seniority were very old; even older than exalts. Their goal was naturally to become exalts.
Inside this Asura City, exalts were invincible existences.
Even if among these slaughter generals, there were people whose cultivation realms were not weaker than exalts, it was also not possible to be a match for an exalt!
Therefore, each time the Heavenly Slaughter Pit opened, it was also the time for these veterans’ thoughts to drift.
And this time, their goal was naturally fixed on Si Yin.
The moment Ye Yuan appeared, he was locked on by several burning-hot gazes. No matter how one looked at it, these few gazes were not too friendly either.
However, Ye Yuan stood there calmly, and could not be bothered with these gazes.
Except, he was not finding trouble with others, but others wanted to find trouble with him.
“Brat, you’re Ye Yuan?” The Wu He who was arguing with Li Dao previously came in front of Ye Yuan at this time.
Ye Yuan rested with his eyes closed and did not even give a shit about this guy.
Wu He’s tone was unfriendly. He was clearly here to find trouble. Regarding this sort of guys who were blind, Ye Yuan had always been disinclined to care.
Seeing Ye Yuan’s attitude, Wu He suddenly became greatly enraged. Pointing at Ye Yuan’s nose, he said, “Brat, you think that by not talking, you’ll be fine? Entering the Heavenly Slaughter Pit, the Asura Arena’s rules won’t be able to protect you anymore! Since you kill Bai Meng, you’ll need to be mentally prepared to get killed!”
This Wu He was precisely the third slaughter general under Exalt Blazing Fire’s command. And Bai Meng’s relationship with him was not shallow, but he was killed by Ye Yuan. Therefore, he hated Ye Yuan to the core.
In the Asura Arena, the higher level could not make a move against the people below. Hence, Wu Je had no way to come find Ye Yuan.
But this time, Ye Yuan actually became a slaughter general under Exalt Si Yin’s command. This made Wu He exceptionally excited.
Ye Yuan slowly opened his eyes. Giving him a nonchalant glance, he said, “Idiot!”
Wu He’s strength was very strong; an expert in the top 200 of the Heaven Carnage Proclamation, but was ignored by a brat who just entered the Heaven Carnage Proclamation. How could he accept this?
“Brat, you’re courting death!” Wu He suddenly became furious and was about to make a move against Ye Yuan.
Right at this time, a silhouette blocked in front of him. It was precisely the great general under Exalt Si Yin’s command, Shao Kai!
“Wu He, are you bullying us for having no people?” Shao Kai said coldly.
Wu He shot Shao Kai a glance and said disdainfully, “Humph! So what if bullying you? Shao Kai, you’re also someone capable at any rate, you’re actually working under a broad. 1 I really feel ashamed for you!”
Wu He did not have any respect for Shao Kai at all. Although Exalt Blazing Fire and Exalt Si Yin were both newly ascended exalts, Exalt Blazing Fire’s ambition was very great. His development these ten years was also pretty decent.
In contrast, Exalt Si Yin’s strength was much weaker.
Therefore, Wu He was the same as the rest; holding Si Yin’s lot in complete contempt.
Shao Kai’s expression was very ugly. He was obviously aware of Exalt Si Yin’s situation. But Exalt Si Yin had saved his life before, so there was no way that Shao Kai would betray Si Yin.
And entering the Heavenly Slaughter Pit this time was the turning point for Si Yin to rise up. Shao Kai had to help Si Yin to rise up no matter what.
Right at this time, a light flashed. 12 silhouettes appeared here. They were precisely the mysterious 12 Exalts.
The Ye Yuan who had his eyes shut to recuperate all along also opened his eyes at this time, and sized up the 12 exalts.
Apart from Si Yin, the other 11 exalts, it was his first time seeing them.
With this sweep, Ye Yuan could not help being slightly amazed too. The glabellas of the 12 Exalts all had eight stars, which was also eight-star soul general!
Just in Slaughter Dao, these 12 people’s strengths were unfathomable.
“Alright, it’s almost time. Us 12 Exalts will join forces to open up the passageway. Everybody, enter the Heavenly Slaughter Pit together.” A masked exalt in the middle said.
Shao Kai scooted close to Ye Yuan’s ear and said softly, “This is the most mysterious existence among the 12 Exalts, Exalt Netherkill.”
Ye Yuan revealed a look of realization. This person was indeed too deep to fathom. He actually made Ye Yuan have a feeling of unable to figure out too.
The 12 Exalts got into position. An apprehensive killing qi suddenly erupted and shot towards that red light beam at the same time.
Boom!
On the red light beam actually slowly opened up a transmission gate!
When all the martial artists saw this situation, their faces all could not help showing looks of eagerness to have a go.
“Alright, set off!”
…
This was a blood-colored wilderness filled with desolation and bleakness, giving people a very dangerous feeling.
“Each exalt has the coordinates of the Dragon Sovereign Territory in their hands. Three days later, we’ll meet up at the Dragon Sovereign Territory! Now, depart on your own!” Exalt Netherkill said coldly.
Chapter 899. Ethereal Blood Ginseng |
Exalt Netherkill gave Ye Yuan a profound glance, and brought the subordinates under him and left.
Exalt Blazing Fire with a head full of fire-red colored hair slowly came in front of Exalt Si Yin. Darting a glance at Ye Yuan, he cracked a wide smile and said, “Si Yin, you got to keep a close eye on your family’s little darling. This road … isn’t too peaceful! Hahaha!”
This was a blatant threat, provoking until all of the martial artists on Exalt Si Yin’s side scowled with furious glares.
Bai Meng was a figure that Exalt Blazing Fire was heavily grooming in the third level. He expended considerable resources on him but was killed by Ye Yuan. This grudge was considered sowed.
By the side, Exalt Heavenly Hedonist also looked at Si Yin with a smile that was not a smile as he said, “Si Yin, your position as an Exalt was originally in a precarious position to begin with. You actually still dared to recruit such a hot potato! Heh heh, this Heavenly Slaughter Pit trip, you got to be a little more careful.”
Si Yin’s face was cold as frost, but she did not argue.
She also did not expect that Blazing Fire and Heavenly Hedonist would actually walk together. This trip seemed to be quite troublesome.
“Lord Exalt, we should leave already. If we still don’t go, the treasures will all be snatched away by others.” Ye Yuan’s leisurely voice transmitted over. He actually already walked out far away.
Si Yin was stunned and finally came back to her senses. She could not help being somewhat surprised. Ye Yuan got into such a big trouble, but he was actually not worried at all.
Did this brat not care about anything, or did he have something to count on?
“Humph! That stretch of area nearby has long been turned over countless times already. Whatever treasures there are, they have long been picked clean by people. Would it still be your turn?” Si Yin caught up to Ye Yuan and said with a cold snort.
Ye Yuan said with a smile, “That might not be so!”
The Heavenly Slaughter Pit was huge. The area which Asura City explored was but a very small part of it.
Heading towards the depths, the danger was very high. Even these veteran exalts also did not dare to go too deep.
The vicinity area of a radius of ten thousand miles, these Exalts from the Asura Arena already came goodness knows how many times. It was impossible to leave behind anything.
Right now, places that had good stuff were virtually all outside of 10 thousand miles.
“Hey, Ye Yuan! Don’t run around. The fiendish qi in this Heavenly Slaughter Pit is extremely heavy. Even within this 10 thousand mile region, it’s very dangerous too!” Seeing Ye Yuan milling around on his own, Si Yin could not resist warning.
This guy really made people worry.
“Lord Exalt, what is this boy doing? The Heavenly Slaughter Pit is an ancient battlefield. There’s an abundance of evil stuff. If he anyhow runs around like this, he will screw us over!”
“This boy is relying on that Lord Exalt has a request for him. He’s so freaking cocky!”
“Lord Exalt, you look at that punk’s arrogant appearance, how does he look like your subordinate? Those who don’t know might even think that you’re his subordinate!”
Si Yin’s subordinates actually had a lot of resentment towards Ye Yuan. Seeing Ye Yuan run about without a break at this time, each and every one of them started to complain.
Si Yin’s face turned black too when she heard that. Ye Yuan’s actions truly thought too little of her.
Along the way, they naturally had to listen to her, this Exalt, for everything. This boy running around here and there, what did it count as?
The other exalts’ teams had already moved out goodness knows how far away, while their bunch only walked out less than 500 miles.
At the rate of this speed, they could forget about reaching the Dragon Sovereign Territory in three day’s time.
Being called out by her subordinates like this, Si Yin became embarrassed too. She questioned with a black face, “Ye Yuan, are you intentionally causing trouble?”
But it was like Ye Yuan did not hear it. He still rushed around in all directions, as if he was searching for something.
“Exalt, this brat isn’t showing you any respect at all!” When the people under her saw Si Yin lose her temper, each and every one of them could not help getting excited.
Si Yin’s expression became increasingly uglier. Finally, her figure moved, arriving at Ye Yuan’s side.
“Ye Yuan, this Heavenly Slaughter Pit isn’t a land for jokes. It’s fine if you’re courting death yourself, but don’t drag everybody into the water! If you carry on being like this, this exalt won’t be courteous anymore!” Si Yin said coldly.
Ye Yuan made a shushing hand gesture at Si Yin and said softly, “Lower your voice, don’t scare the treasure away!”
He had a secretive appearance, looking just like a huckster.
However, in Si Yin’s view, Ye Yuan was completely impervious to reason.
“Ye Yuan, you’re too much! If I don’t show you a little color, you really won’t show any respect to me, this exalt!” Si Yin said in a cold voice.
Si Yin surged with killing qi. A powerful aura spread over towards Ye Yuan.
With a whoosh, a small and exquisite figure suddenly scurried out from underground and dashed for the distance.
Si Yin froze, the killing qi on her immediately dissipating into nothing.
Ye Yuan heaved a slight sigh and shot a fierce glare at Si Yin.
Bang!
That little thing’s speed was extremely fast. Even Si Yin did not see clearly what that thing was. But it did not run out very far when it slammed head-on into a light screen, tumbling over with a big somersault.
The little thing did not give up. Crawling up, it changed a direction and ran again. But it did not run far when it collided into a light screen again.
Seeing this scene, Si Yin and all the slaughter generals were all incredibly astounded.
They had clearly already noticed that a trapping formation was already laid down within this circumference of several hundred feet.
This array formation was clearly set up by Ye Yuan. But when did Ye Yuan make a move, they did not perceive it at all!
At this time, the little object was like a headless fly, dashing around randomly inside the array formation. But no matter how it ran, it could not escape the range of the array formation either.
Before long, the little thing was finally all worn out and gave up on escaping.
It slumped down and looked at Ye Yuan with a pitiable look.
That appearance was adorable to the max.
Si Yin focused her eyes to look, it was a palm-sized little child. Immediately, her maternal love overflowed, wanting to hug the little thing.
“Hey, what are you doing?!” Si Yin was just about to make a move but was berated by Ye Yuan.
Si Yin froze: “Don’t you see how pitiful he is? I’ll go hug him!”
Ye Yuan shot her another glare and said crossly, “Prodigal broad who is not good enough to accomplish anything! If I didn’t have foresight, this Ethereal Blood Ginseng would have been set free by you!”
Si Yin’s complexion turned bright red all at once. Pointing at Ye Yuan, her chest heaved up and down incessantly as she said in anger, “You! What did you say?! You actually dare to scold me … scold me …”
“Humph! What are you if not a prodigal broad? Do you know how precious this Ethereal Blood Ginseng is? Do you know how great an effort I spent in this half a day’s time in order to not startle him? Let him escape, and it will be even harder than ascending to the heavens to want to find him again!” Ye Yuan said with a displeased face, totally not caring about Si Yin’s attitude.
Si Yin was rendered speechless by Ye Yuan. She also recovered to her senses at this time. Widening her eyes, she said, “You … You’re saying that this little child is the Tier 9 spirit medicine, Ethereal Blood Ginseng?!”
Ye Yuan glared and said huffily, “What do you think?”
Si Yin had nothing to say anymore. She never would have thought that within this several hundred miles radius, there would actually be a Tier 9 spirit medicine!
“You … Why didn’t you say earlier …” Si Yin said weakly.
Chapter 900. Si Yin Enraged |
“Say what say? By the time I say clearly, he would have escaped long ago!” Ye Yuan said crossly.
He circled around Si Yin and came in front of the Ethereal Blood Ginseng, and directly tapped a finger over.
That little child suddenly fled. It actually wanted to slip away.
Ye Yuan gave a cold laugh and said, “Want to run? How can it be that easy?! Lock!”
The spell in Ye Yuan’s hands pinched, several beams of light extended out within the array formation, grabbing hold of the Ethereal Blood Ginseng that was about to escape.
Ye Yuan chuckled and went up to jab randomly, laying down several restrictions on the Ethereal Blood Ginseng.
The little child looked at Ye Yuan with wide glaring eyes and unspeakable resentment in its gaze.
“Heh heh, don’t look at me like this! Following your Grandpa Ye in the future, I won’t treat you shabbily!”
Ye Yuan laughed merrily and directly threw the Ethereal Blood Ginseng into the storage ring.
Even with Ye Yuan’s eyesight, he regarded this Ethereal Blood Ginseng as a treasure. It could be seen how valuable he was.
Si Yin looked at Ye Yuan with an unfriendly face and said with a cold smile, “You’re really not polite!”
Ye Yuan said indifferently, “Just a Tier 9 spirit medicine, I won’t be courteous with Lord Exalt.”
“You really take this Exalt to not know anything? The Ethereal Blood Ginseng’s predecessor is a Polar Region Blood Ginseng. The conditions to take form are extremely harsh! Firstly, a Polar Region Blood Ginseng requires over 10 thousand years of martial artists’ fresh blood to nourish before it can initially take form. And when a Polar Region Blood Ginseng evolves to an Ethereal Blood Ginseng, the conditions are even harsher to the extreme. An item like this, you dare to pocket it alone?” Si Yin said icily.
