Chapter 1278: Chapter 1277: Huo Xianer Gets Playful

The might of the Nine Netherworld!

The enduring legacy of the Buddhist Sect!

These two inheritances are like good versus evil, constantly restraining, countering, and battling each other, never ceasing. When Ye Tianchen obtained the highest inheritance of the Buddhist Sect and attracted the Nine Netherworld, he had such thoughts. Now, upon hearing Little Zhu Yan’s words about his clan ancestor’s immense power and greatness, even after being tainted by the Nine Netherworld’s curse power, having to seek the Buddhist Sacred Land to dissolve it, it further confirmed Ye Tianchen’s feelings.

What Ye Tianchen didn’t expect was that the brothers Black and White Impermanence had only regained spiritual wisdom in a place where the eerie atmosphere was at its peak. Whether these brothers newly awakened their spiritual wisdom or regained their old memories, Ye Tianchen wasn’t clear. However, Little Zhu Yan wasn’t wrong; the place with the heaviest eerie atmosphere was indeed the Nine Netherworld. It’s very likely that the Black and White Impermanence brothers have a profound connection with the Nine Netherworld. Such a terrifying inheritance should not be lightly activated without formidable strength. Ye Tianchen remembered being told that even a Supreme Emperor attempted to destroy the inheritance of the Nine Netherworld but failed, showing how deeply rooted this inheritance is. If not, with the unrivaled power of an Emperor Realm figure dominating the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, destroying an inheritance shouldn’t have been so difficult, right?

”This method of extinguishing divine sense while preserving the flesh, waiting for spiritual wisdom to emerge, many experts, though aware of its slim chance, have practiced it since time immemorial. Many cultivators have ended their lives in decay, unable to find the road to immortality. What else could they do but this? It counts as an alternative eternal life, and having a sliver of hope is better than none. Perhaps it’s even more poignant than adhering to the laws of life and death!” Little Zhu Yan looked up at the sky, involuntarily sighed and said.

Ye Tianchen similarly furrowed his brows, suddenly contemplating his own goals of Martial Arts Peak. If someday he truly reaches such heights, becoming a Saint, an unrivaled Emperor, when he looks back, will he be lost to eternal solitude? Will all his dear ones fail to live as long as him, eventually turning to dust? Will he end up seeking for an old friend to converse with? After such eternal loneliness and immense desolation, will he face the sad fate of decay?

No! No matter the tumult and transformation of the world, I remain myself. I will break these chains, preventing such desolation and loneliness from coming!

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen had this thought, a surge of boldness. If he truly has to experience this eternal solitude without any loved ones by his side, what is Martial Arts Peak, what is immortality? He would rather not have them!

”We might be overthinking now. Without reaching such a realm, we cannot see through certain illusions. I will definitely work hard to improve my cultivation realm!” Ye Tianchen clenched his fist tightly and said.

”Indeed, perhaps I’ve thought too much. Maybe the Black and White Impermanence brothers don’t have too much relation with the Nine Netherworld inheritance. Because the liquor in each of their gourds emanates such strong Yin Qi, it’s reserved for corpses or those who regain spiritual wisdom after becoming corpses. Even an Ancient Saint might face life-threatening danger at just one sip. They didn’t make you drink; it seems they aren’t those evil and murderous types,” Little Zhu Yan pondered and nodded.

At this moment, Ye Tianchen and Little Zhu Yan were leisurely lying on a large rock. Both had feasted on leopard meat and were preparing for a restful sleep. The sky was gradually darkening, and Ye Tianchen and Little Zhu Yan were completely unafraid of anyone daring to provoke them. The domineering Young Master of Hundred Beasts Mountain was braised and eaten alive, Qing Zi, the genius from Green Sword Sect, was beaten to the point of breaking every bone and thrown aside. Who would dare to challenge these two fierce figures?

Ye Tianchen knew that during these three days, there might be many battles, possibly resulting in the deaths of some martial arts experts. Because the fewer people accessing the ”Original Restricted Zone,” especially among the forces with strong inheritances, the better. They are surely looking for excuses to kill or to intimidate other martial artists to retreat, as they intend to exclusively seize the treasures!

”Wow, smells delicious!”

Suddenly, an immensely beautiful woman appeared before Ye Tianchen. Before he could react, this woman already grabbed the bone chopsticks beside Ye Tianchen and reached into the Black Seal pot, but only managed to get some meat from the remaining leopard bones. Nonetheless, the woman was quite generous, putting it into her mouth and consuming it before glaring at Ye Tianchen and saying, ”You’re too much, causing me so much misery. Now you’ve made delicious food but left none for me, really unfair!”

Ye Tianchen was taken aback, glancing at the woman, suddenly feeling cold sweat on his forehead. Isn’t this Huo Xianer? How did she suddenly appear here? She acted as if she was familiar with him, but didn’t she always shout for battle?

To his surprise, Huo Xianer from the Fire God Sacred Land appeared. Ye Tianchen frowned slightly. Although he and Huo Xianer had no deep-seated hatred, they often experienced some unpleasantness, especially after he used Huo Xianer and her companions to lure away the Black Tiger Beast King, which led to confrontations. In particular, Iron Fan Young Master attempted to kill Ye Tianchen, making him more cautious about Huo Xianer, Pangu Yun, Iron Fan Young Master, and Jing Wuhuan, four young experts from different heritages. Their cultivation realms were not inferior to Ye Tianchen’s, and given their profound inheritances, they might possess secret treasures and astonishing Martial Arts Divine Skills, making them formidable.

”Why are you here? What about the other three?” Ye Tianchen glanced at Huo Xianer and asked casually.

”What do the other three have to do with me? Although the four great inheritances acted together, we never said we couldn’t act alone!” Huo Xianer playfully made a face at Ye Tianchen while speaking.

Ye Tianchen ignored Huo Xianer, unsure of what this quirky woman intended. He had a bad premonition; Huo Xianer’s presence usually boded no good. Although they had no irreconcilable hatred, their disagreements were frequent. Her arrival without any threats of violence was truly puzzling for Ye Tianchen.

”What? Are you scared?” Huo Xianer asked Ye Tianchen with a deliberately mischievous smile.

”What should I be scared of? Even if all four of you come at me, I’m not afraid!” Ye Tianchen replied nonchalantly.

”Such a big mouth, but I’m too lazy to argue with you. Hurry up and bring out more Demon Beast meat, I want to braise it and eat it!” Huo Xianer said, pursing her lips.

”I don’t have any!” Ye Tianchen said resolutely.

”Really none?” Huo Xianer looked at Ye Tianchen with a mischievous expression and asked.

”Really none, besides, we’re not related in any way, why should I treat you to Demon Beast meat?” Ye Tianchen glanced at Huo Xianer disdainfully, thinking that this beauty was a bit too forward!

Huo Xianer glanced at Ye Tianchen, smiled mischievously, then walked up to him, and said with a strange look, ”Do you know why I didn’t want to teach you a lesson this time?”

”How would I know!” Ye Tianchen was curious but replied dismissively.

”Because I found out your true identity!” Huo Xianer giggled, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen was taken aback, true identity, did this little girl really know? No way, it’s important to note that the ’Bone Transformation Skill’ is incredibly strong; aside from the tricky Zhu Yan’s Eyes of Golden Flame, no one else has claimed to see through Ye Tianchen’s ’Bone Transformation Skill.’ Truth be told, after a moment of shock, Ye Tianchen still couldn’t believe Huo Xianer’s words.

”What true identity? I’m just a South Sea Taoist, stop talking nonsense!” Ye Tianchen looked at Huo Xianer with a sour expression.

”Is that so? Since you refuse to admit it, I will have to call it out!” Huo Xianer said with a mischievous grin.

”Go ahead, even if you scream until your throat is hoarse, no one will pay attention to you!” Ye Tianchen replied dismissively.

Huo Xianer glared at Ye Tianchen and then said, ”You’re forcing me, I didn’t want to do this, it’s too risky for you. I’m kind-hearted, but if you won’t admit it, I have no choice but to tell others that you’re... Ye... Tian... Chen... woo!”

Just as Huo Xianer was about to utter the last ”Chen,” Ye Tianchen rushed forward and covered her small mouth, genuinely surprised that his true identity had been uncovered by Huo Xianer. He felt quite unexpected; could there be an issue with his ’Bone Transformation Skill’?

”Ugh, you big bully, let me go...” Huo Xianer was surprised too; she hadn’t expected Ye Tianchen to suddenly cover her mouth. She found herself leaning entirely against Ye Tianchen’s chest, her face flushed red with embarrassment. No man had ever been this close to her since she was born; Ye Tianchen was the first.

Bang!

Suddenly, Huo Xianer’s entire body ignited with flames, startling Ye Tianchen, who quickly stepped back, not expecting Huo Xianer’s Martial Arts True Qi to be powered by Fire. This was truly powerful! (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations or monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation.
