Chapter 224: Late Night Fierce Battle! (2/2)
The flying beasts behind suddenly squeaked out. Not long later, another group of flying beasts appeared out of nowhere.
“Your Sister! Still finding helpers!” Seeing the flying beasts coming over to surround him, Cheng Yu was at a loss of what to do. They were trying to force him to death.
“Jewels Cauldron!” Cheng Yu suddenly thought of the cauldron he had refined. That was a soul-grade defensive treasure. Cheng Yu needed to rest now, he could only rely on it for help. A copper cauldron flew out from his body, bringing Cheng Yu into it in an instant. Cheng Yu refined four soul items. Other than purple light sword which was not a storage treasure, the other three had their own storage space, able to store any objects. However, when it came to defense, without a doubt, this Jewel Cauldron was the best option.
Facing the siege of the flying beasts, Cheng Yu controlled the Jewel Cauldron and charged over. Above the skies, a cauldron was flying around rapidly, knocking and colliding into anything in its way as it flew off. However, this was only achievable because Cheng Yu had taken out a spiritual vein, directly providing spiritual Qi to the cauldron. Otherwise, relying on his own spiritual Qi to control this flying meant he would only be able to go a few kilometers before hitting his limit.
Soul items possessed strength, but the consumption of spiritual Qi was also very high. If it was not because of the two spiritual veins on him, it wouldn’t be able to last long before the soul tool turned back into a piece of scrap metal.
This was the reason why those at the lower realms were not able to unleash the full might of a soul tool. Cultivators below the Nascent Soul Realm have no way to directly use their spiritual Qi. They need to convert it to Qi before being able to use it. But what soul tools consumed was spiritual Qi. The spiritual Qi on Golden Core Realm cultivators wasn’t a lot. Naturally, there was a limit to how much power they were able to unleash when using a soul tool.
Cheng Yu had hidden himself inside the Jewel Cauldron, but he still had a clear view of what was happening outside. Cheng Yu was also very clear that these two spiritual veins were his energy existence. Although the spiritual Qi provided to the soul tool was from the spiritual vein, Cheng Yu knew that this mustn’t continue on.
Spiritual veins don’t come easy. Consuming it and not being replenished was not the approach. So, Cheng Yu could only try to salvage the situation as much as possible, preparing to look for a location to rest. With the Jewel Cauldron, Cheng Yu was at ease. Although he was constantly ramming with the bone beasts, the inside was actually tranquil, without a single sound.
Spending two hours, Cheng Yu finally found a cavern. There were a few white bone soldiers inside and a dead sixth rank berserk metal bear. Cheng Yu smashed all the white bone soldiers before jumping out from the cauldron. Placing a few restrictions at the cavern entrance, Cheng Yu arrived at the berserk metal bear’s corpse delightfully.
“Heh heh! It’s been a long time since I have eaten fresh meat. What a timely manner!” For the past few days, Cheng Yu had been in the Amethyst Palace, and what he ate was all the rations he had prepared beforehand. Storing it in the storage ring wouldn’t cause it to spoil, and it would look as if it was still fresh. But compared to fresh meat, it was worse. Cheng Yu ran out quickly to look for a few dry leaves before starting to roast the meat.
“If only the old man was here, he would definitely be salivating,” Smelling the fragrance of the roasted meat in front of him, Cheng Yu remembered the days he was with the old man. This time, if it was not because of the cyan wood armor he had gifted him, how could he possibly have his current fortuitous encounter? He would have long died under the sword of the Kunlun Golden Core old man.
“Wait until I have found the other shrines, I will definitely head over to Limitless Palace to give him my thanks,” Cheng Yu recalled the scene of him fighting Kunlun Golden Core old man, and up until now, he still had some lingering fears towards the battle.
“This loss I will definitely get it back from Kunlun! With I, Cheng Yu, around, you, Kunlun, can dream of having peaceful days!” Cheng Yu recalled when he had almost died under Kunlun’s sword, and his eyes were filled with intense chilliness. However, if it was not because of the Kunlun old man, how could he possibly have his current fortuitous encounters? Thinking about this, shouldn’t he thank him instead? Cheng Yu tore down a bear paw and started chomping down.
The second day, Cheng Yu woke up from his meditation early in the morning. However, he did not cultivate in the cavern, but instead, in the cauldron. Otherwise, his mind would never be at peace. Now, regardless of it being attack or defense, Cheng Yu’s armaments were definitely outstanding.
Cheng Yu had no idea of the glorious times of the Amethyst Palace and the Heavenly God Palace. But what Cheng Yu knew was that the resources in any of these shrines were not in the least worse than a mid-grade sect. Especially the Heavenly God Palace. With four other shrines protecting it, it could show its status. The fortune contained inside would definitely be overwhelming. If he was able to find all the five shrines, Cheng Yu believed that the amount of wealth he could hold would be greater than any of those big sects in the Cultivation World.
If Cheng Yu had so much wealth, he believed that half of his dream would be accomplished.
“Eh? The white bone armies disappeared? Just nice, the treasure seeking journey should continue,” Cheng Yu arrived at the cave’s entrance, realizing that there was not even a single white bone soldier to be seen, and he felt relief. Otherwise, it would be a lot more troublesome for him to look for the Temple of Heaven. Cheng Yu took out his flying sword and started roaming around to search.

“Senior Sister! Quickly look! Such a big flower sea! The flowers here are so pretty!” Ning Yan, Wu Ming and their group arrived at the front of the flower sea. The few Huaxian Valley ladies who had not come here before immediately became happy. The fears they had from the Death Bone Tomb were immediately thrown to the back of their brains. Especially so for Ning Zi, after shouting, she ran over to the flower sea.
“Ning Zi, come back!” Ning Yan shouted hastily.
“Senior Sister, what’s wrong. Those flowers are so pretty. Let’s go and pluck a few of them back!” Ning Zi stopped her track as she said in confusement.
“Over here is Death Fantasy Ocean. Don’t touch those flowers randomly. A lot of flowers contain acute poison,” Ning Yan explained to Ning Zi and the other junior sisters solemnly.
