Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 435: Chapter 435: God Level Nurturing Spirit Pill

The Black Sky Burial Ground was so vast, permeated everywhere by that dreadful black fog. Even for her, a cultivator at the Half-step Divine Venerate Realm, the sight of this black fog filled her heart with extreme fear.

But the round, rolling creature before her—a mystical demon beast of unknown species—had absorbed all the black fog from the entire Black Sky Burial Ground within the time it took for an incense stick to burn.

This was truly astounding.

It surpassed Liu Yiyi’s wildest imagination.

She had been in the Divine Land for 100,000 years. She had never heard of any demon beast possessing such terrifying Divine Skills.

”Brother Yun, what kind of demon beast is this?”

Liu Yiyi was exceptionally shocked and thrilled, her voice trembling as she asked.

”This is the Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls,” Ye Yun said with a smile.

After speaking, he waved to the Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls hovering in mid-air. ”Come down now!”

”Yes, Master!”

The Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls agreed. Its enormous body quivered and began to shrink dramatically.

Visibly, it quickly shrank back to its original size of ten feet.

It looked no different from before.

However, Ye Yun could tell that the Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls seemed somewhat bloated.

After returning, it would probably need some time to digest.

Or it might be robbed by those other Undead Divine Pets and be forced to spit some of it out.

”You did well. There’ll be other opportunities for you to come out again,” Ye Yun said encouragingly, patting the round, rolling body of the Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls with a smile.

”Thank you, Master! HEH HEH, I am the first Undead Type Divine Pet to come out.”

The Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls excitedly did a roll in mid-air.

Ye Yun smiled and immediately returned it to his storage.

Liu Yiyi was still incredibly shocked.

This was the first time she had ever heard the name Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls.

”Brother Yun, this Devouring Beast of Shadow Souls... where did you get it from?”

Liu Yiyi swallowed hard and asked.

”I once met a senior who gifted it to me,” Ye Yun replied calmly.

He believed this reason would certainly convince this naive girl, Liu Yiyi.

Sure enough, Liu Yiyi nodded. A look of realization flashed across her face, and she didn’t pursue the question further.

”Is that a Covert Dragon Coffin?”

Ye Yun’s eyes flashed as he suddenly spotted a black Covert Dragon Coffin lying flat on the ground in the distant Abyss.

The middle-aged man inside this Covert Dragon Coffin was one of the vessels of the Dragon Raisers from the Cangnan Continent.

Now, this man’s physical body had become extremely strong, comparable to a High-level Divine Dragon.

”Yiyi, come with me,” Ye Yun said and descended.

Soon, he landed in front of the black Covert Dragon Coffin.

Liu Yiyi also landed beside him at this moment.

”Brother Yun, the one inside this coffin... could it also be a Dragon Raiser?” Liu Yiyi asked curiously.

”No...”

Ye Yun smiled faintly, lifted his hand, and flung the lid of the Covert Dragon Coffin away.

The middle-aged man lay in the coffin with his eyes tightly closed, still in a comatose state.

”His cultivation base... how can it be at the Life and Death Realm?”

Upon sensing the middle-aged man’s cultivation base, Liu Yiyi immediately gasped in surprise.

She hadn’t seen a cultivator in the Life and Death Realm for many years.

In the Daluo Region, True Gods were everywhere; even the weakest cultivators were at the Eternal Realm.

It was rare to see anyone in the Life and Death Realm.

Tiny, star-like runes surfaced in Ye Yun’s enigmatic eyes. The Power of Life and Death enveloped the middle-aged man’s body.

Ye Yun began to read his memories.

It was exactly as he had guessed; this vessel was not bound by any restrictions.

However, Ye Yun did not obtain the information he wanted.

The middle-aged man’s memory only retained experiences from his past life.

These were memories from before he entered the Divine Land, back when he was still on the Cangnan Continent.

This meant that after becoming a vessel, he had fallen into a coma and been teleported to the Divine Land. Then... he must have been dropped into the sky above the Abyss.

He had been constantly absorbing energy from the Dark Heavenly Dragon’s claw, which made his body stronger.

However, the energy of that Dark Dragon Claw was extremely potent; a single vessel could not absorb it completely.

Therefore, Ye Yun guessed... there must be several more vessels. They had probably been cultivated here in the Abyss long ago, only to be moved elsewhere.

The Coffin Raising Lineage is only responsible for creating the vessels. Could it be that the other two lineages of the Dragon Raisers are responsible for handling them?

He pondered it and found it somewhat plausible, but the situation wasn’t clear enough yet, and his confrontation with the Dragon Raisers was still ongoing.

Ye Yun believed that, sooner or later, he would expose all the secrets of the Dragon Raisers one by one.

With a wave of his hand, the coffin lid slid back into place.

Then, he put this Covert Dragon Coffin away as well.

After dealing with all this, Ye Yun specifically took Liu Yiyi deep into the Abyss to investigate. However, after searching, they didn’t find any useful clues.

Thus, Ye Yun tore open the void, left the Black Sky Burial Ground, and returned to the Jianyun Sect.

Ye Yun had only temporarily imprisoned the seven Dragon Raisers. He hoped he could extract some more useful information from them in the future.

Upon entering the Bamboo Building, Ye Yun took out a bag and handed it to Liu Yiyi with a smile.

”Brother Yun, what is this? Why are you giving me things again?” Liu Yiyi said coyly.

”These are Nurturing Spirit Pills. You can take them during your cultivation to aid your progress,” Ye Yun said with a smile.

”They’re Nurturing Spirit Pills?!” Liu Yiyi exclaimed, shocked.

Nurturing Spirit Pills were an extremely precious type of medicinal pill.

Even in the Divine Land, these pills were extremely rare. Consequently, their price was exorbitant, far beyond what ordinary cultivators could afford.

When Liu Yiyi opened the bag and scanned it with her Divine Sense, she was stunned again.

The bag was densely packed with Nurturing Spirit Pills, over ten thousand in total! Moreover, they were all God-level Nurturing Spirit Pills!

The quality of these Nurturing Spirit Pills was very high, superior to the Middle-grade divine Nurturing Spirit Pills Liu Yiyi had previously consumed.

”Brother Yun, are these... all Superior-grade God-level Nurturing Spirit Pills?” Liu Yiyi’s face flushed with excitement as she asked eagerly.

”They are Divine Level Top Quality,” Ye Yun replied with a gentle smile, lightly rubbing Liu Yiyi’s head.

Upon hearing Ye Yun’s words, Liu Yiyi was so shocked she froze like a clay statue.

”Divine Level Top Quality! Brother Yun, did you refine these too?” Liu Yiyi asked, looking at Ye Yun with fervent admiration after regaining her composure.

”They were also a gift from that senior,” Ye Yun shrugged and said with a smile.

He couldn’t take credit this time; claiming he refined them himself would be too far-fetched. It was better to attribute everything to that mysterious senior.

”Brother Yun, these Nurturing Spirit Pills are too precious. I’ll just take a third. After all, you need them for your cultivation too.” Liu Yiyi pushed the bag back towards Ye Yun, her beautiful eyes misting over.

”Don’t worry, I have more, enough for my own cultivation,” Ye Yun said with a gentle smile, pushing the bag back to her.

In the end, Liu Yiyi had no choice but to accept them.

「Over the next three months.」

Ye Yun dedicated himself to teaching Liu Yiyi the swordsmanship of the Binary Sword Chant.

Although Liu Yiyi was a Sword Dao genius, after three months, she had only managed to grasp the rudiments of the Binary Sword Chant.

Despite this, her Sword Dao proficiency soared to a level she had previously never dared to imagine.

”That senior brother of yours... why hasn’t he shown up yet?”

One day, after practicing swordsmanship with Liu Yiyi, Ye Yun sheathed his sword and mused aloud.

Liu Yiyi blinked. ”Brother Yun, are you talking about Ning Fangzhi?”

”Yes, I suppose it’s him,” Ye Yun nodded.

”He probably knows you’re here, Brother Yun, and is too scared to come!” Liu Yiyi chuckled.

”If he doesn’t dare to come, then we’ll go to him!” Ye Yun said coldly, a flicker of killing intent flashing in his eyes.

”Brother Yun, the Divine Land is vast and boundless. Who knows where he could be hiding...” Liu Yiyi sighed.

”Don’t worry, I know his whereabouts. Come with me!” Ye Yun said with a confident smile, suddenly taking one of Liu Yiyi’s delicate hands.
