Chapter 205 (1/2)

Into the Shrine

A black heart the size of a basket, was stabbed deep by Thousand Deep Sword. Su Yun leaped forward to grab hold of the heart.

The Dead Lonely Beast’s heart was reeking of a rotting stench. Su Yun frowned slightly as he looked upon this rotting seed but thinking about its effects, he withstood the unbearable stench and swallowed it.

He swallowed it in a gulp.

“Yucks.”

Su Yun wiped his mouth as he turned towards Cheng Xie and muttered: “Let’s go. With this dying Dead Lonely Beast, the other Evil Realm beasts will come running here! Let’s leave this place soon.”

“Yea, you also need to find a place to digest the Dead Lonely Beast’s heart and channel all the energy within the heart to become yours.”

“Yes.”

Su Yun breathed out and left quickly with Cheng Xie.

The two roamed around the outskirts of Soulless Forest for a period of time before they found an empty piece of land.

This land was flat, and there were no signs of any gigantic Evil Realm beasts roaming around. The Qi in the air was clean too, so there were probably no impending danger.

Without hesitation, Su Yun immediately started meditating to digest the Dead Lonely Beast’s heart. With Cheng Xie at the side serving him honestly.

The Dead Lonely Beast was huge, its entire body was a treasure, but the most precious out of all of them would be its heart, as it contained all of its energy. According to rumours, a Dead Lonely Beast’s spirit essences was not in the Qi channels of the beast, instead, it was all gathered in its heart. This was also the reason why the Dead Lonely Beast’s heart was so huge. Also, it was super strong, giving the Dead Lonely Beast a strong life force.

Su Yun wanted to digest it so badly but the Evil Spirit Qi within the heart was resisting him. He could only attack by using all of his Profound Spirit Qi on him. He activated all of his Spirit Essences, and his Profound Spirit Qi gushed forward towards his digestive system in an attempt to digest the contents of the heart, absorbing all of the energy within it.

Cheng Xie looked upon Su Yun as he meditated. Su Yun looked so focused as a great deal of Evil Qi started seeping out of him. He was turning pale and there were stripes of black tendons forming on his skin. That was a sign of Evil Qi passing through his Qi channels.

After half a day, Su Yun finally opened his eyes. He had stopped what he was doing.

“How are you feeling?”

Cheng Xie ran over hastily as he asked.

Su Yun did not reply him. Instead, he extended his arms and started accumulating Profound Spirit Qi. Then, there was a ray of blackness with a tinge of white, blue, green, red, and purple Qi emerging from him. It was as though a piece of black paper, painted with several different colours. Although it looked beautiful, it was eerie to look at.

“Is this your Profound Spirit Qi?”

Cheng Xie looked at the Qi on his hands in shocked as though his eyes were falling out.

“Yeah.”

“Why, why do I sense other elements? This isn’t a Pure Evil Qi right? It seems as though there are at least three kinds of Qi within it!”

“It’s not three, but seven.” Su Yun clenched his hand into a fist and dispersed the Qi. looking up, he said decisively: “I must leave this Evil Realm alive. Cheng Xie, I’ll help you obtain your master’s divine crown but I need to tell you something right now! You better not lie to me, or else.”

“You’re going to kill me?”

“No.” Su Yun shook his head: “I’ll destroy your master’s divine crown personally.”

With that, Cheng Xie’s face turned ugly. He gulped his saliva down and did not reply.

“Huh?” suddenly, Su Yun raised his eyes and looked far ahead to see a pair of black, shimmery golden eyes as though they were two rays of fish fading in and out.

“Someone’s coming! It’s quick and the Qi is strong!”

Su Yun’s face congealed as he whispered.

“Is it the almighty being?’

“Amongst these people, there are a few that went back to report to the Evil people. I’m pretty sure that’s them. Seems like they’re going to retrieve the divine crown!”

When cheng Xie heard, he panicked: “Then let’s get moving, we better not let them get it first!”

“This divine crown is seated within the Shrine of Evil Spirits. With our cultivation, it is definitely not enough to get it. In addition, once it lands into their hands, the chances of us getting it would even be lower. So there is only one way to get it now.”

“What is it?”

Cheng xie asked quickly.

“That is, when they are obtaining the divine crown!” Su Yun caressed his chin as he pondered: “Earlier on, that batch of Evil people merely wanted to test waters at the shrine to see what the structure was like on the inside of the shrine and to gather all the dangers within the shrine. Like you said, the almighty being is cautious. Before he starts on anything, he would investigate thoroughly first. So he must be fully prepared now. We might not have a great chance in obtaining it so when we are making a move later, we need to pre-empt two escape routes.”

“How are we going to retreat?”

“Are you not familiar with retreating?”

“Not very. My powers are weak, why would I come here? This place is too dangerous, I cannot handle it.”

“Then at least, you’re familiar with the shrine right?”

“Of course!”

“That’s good. Let’s go!”

“To?”
