Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 437: Chapter 437: Dragon God Bloodline, Nine-leaf Jade Grass

”Yiyi, have you been to this Black Water Region before?” After flying for a while, Ye Yun gazed at the distant marsh and suddenly asked.

”No. The Divine Land is vast, with countless territories large and small. Although I could be considered a strong cultivator in the Daluo Region, when it comes to other territories, I’m not as competent. So over the years, I’ve been training diligently in the Jianyun Sect,” Liu Yiyi answered seriously.

”Hmm... what you’re doing is good.” Ye Yun chuckled and gave his approval.

Living quietly in a corner and cultivating honestly allows one to live longer. If one relied solely on their talent and roamed everywhere, they would easily risk falling into peril. Luckily, Liu Yiyi was wholeheartedly dedicated to the Sword Dao. Aside from cultivating, she never thought about anything else. She had always remained in the Daluo Region, which allowed Ye Yun to encounter her. Otherwise, Ye Yun wouldn’t know if he could ever meet Liu Yiyi again in this lifetime.

BANG, BANG!

From within the distant mist, the sounds of fighting suddenly erupted.

Ye Yun glanced in that direction. Through the white mist, he saw five or six True God Realm cultivators ganging up on a blue-clad youth.

The youth was also a True God Realm cultivator. Surrounded, he was flailing and appeared to be in grave danger amidst his frantic counter-attacks.

Ye Yun’s eyes flashed. He surprisingly sensed the Dragon God Bloodline in this blue-clad youth.

”Let’s go and take a look...” Ye Yun flew straight over.

”Stop struggling! Hand over the demon beast’s inner core now, and I might spare your life!” one of the attackers, a man in his thirties with a ferocious expression, yelled loudly.

”Dream on!” the blue-clad youth roared in anger, unleashing a series of Sword Lights as he engaged them in a fierce battle.

However, being outnumbered, he was no match for the six of them. After only a few exchanges, he was injured.

Just then, an astonishing Super Divine Dragon Breath descended from above.

The cultivators on both sides, who had been fighting, froze, their bodies trembling in fear.

This terrifying Super Divine Dragon Breath was at least at the Divine Monarch Realm.

Ye Yun stood mid-air, looking at the blue-clad youth, and asked with a smile, ”Which sect are you from?”

”Senior, I am just a Loose Cultivator,” the youth responded with a bitter smile.

Ye Yun nodded slightly, his pupils contracting minutely as he instantly seized the memories from the youth’s mind.

The blue-clad youth was not lying. He truly had no sect.

This young man hailed from a primitive tribe in the Black Water Region. He had entered the Mist Marsh to hunt for demon beast inner cores, which he would then exchange for cultivation resources.

Ye Yun initially planned to take this youth with the Dragon God Bloodline under his wing, but after careful thought, he decided against it. In the Divine Land, the spiritual energy contained Divine Nature; cultivating here would allow one to achieve results with half the effort. In the future, when the Dragon God Sect expanded its branches into the Divine Land, it wouldn’t be too late to recruit these human cultivators possessing the Dragon God Bloodline. Ye Yun wasn’t surprised to find humans with the Dragon God Bloodline in the Divine Land. Perhaps, in very ancient times, before the great wars broke out, there were marital exchanges between the Spirits of the Divine Land and the Dragon Clan of the Dragon Hidden Continent. That was how the bloodline had been passed down.

”Hmm, you can leave now,” Ye Yun said to the blue-clad youth with a smile.

”Thank you, Senior, for saving my life!” The youth gave Ye Yun a deep look, as if trying to commit his face to memory. Then, he bowed deeply to Ye Yun, turned, and departed.

”Senior, can we leave as well?” the other few True God Realm cultivators also asked nervously.

”You all may go too. Remember, never lay hands on him again,” Ye Yun said indifferently.

”We swear by the Heavenly Dao that we will never touch that guy again!” one man declared, thumping his chest as he immediately swore an oath.

The others quickly followed suit.

Ye Yun nodded. Once they had all sworn their oaths, he allowed them to leave.

To him, killing or not killing a group of True God Realm young monks meant nothing. Besides, Ye Yun currently appeared in the Divine Land with a different appearance, and no one would know his origins.

After that little interlude, Ye Yun and Liu Yiyi continued to fly deeper into the Mist Marsh in search of the Immortal Nectar Dew.

From Liu Yiyi’s description, Ye Yun now had a clear understanding of the so-called Immortal Nectar Dew.

It was a rare Nine-leaf Jade Grass that thrived in damp environments. It absorbed the nature’s spiritual energy of the Mist Marsh and secreted a fresh essence on its leaves. This fresh essence was the extremely precious Immortal Nectar Dew.

A single Nine-leaf Jade Grass had nine leaves, and each leaf could only secrete one drop of Immortal Nectar Dew every thousand years. This highlighted just how rare the Immortal Nectar Dew was.

Therefore, many female cultivators, upon acquiring this dew, would apply it to their faces to transform their appearance, making themselves look younger and more beautiful.

「」

Half a day passed, but Ye Yun and Liu Yiyi found nothing.

Due to their powerful cultivation bases, many demon beasts in the Mist Marsh would sense their Super Divine Dragon Breath and immediately hide far away.

”Brother Yun, perhaps we should give up. The Immortal Nectar Dew is something one stumbles upon, not something sought. Shall we find Ning Fangzhi first?” Liu Yiyi said, her face etched with disappointment at not finding the Immortal Nectar Dew.

”There’s no rush. His true body is hidden in a cave deep within the Mist Marsh. I don’t know its exact coordinates, so we can search for the Immortal Nectar Dew while also looking for the cave’s location,” Ye Yun said with a smile.

Why wouldn’t he be happy to kill two birds with one stone? The Cloud Mark Cave wouldn’t move; its entrance was just very well hidden.

After a few more Time Units had passed, the two of them ventured into the deepest, most remote parts of the Mist Marsh.

”Brother Yun, look ahead! That’s the Nine-leaf Jade Grass!” Liu Yiyi suddenly became extremely excited upon spotting the Nine-leaf Jade Grass. She raised her jade-like finger, pointed into the distance, and exclaimed.

Ye Yun looked up and saw a half-meter-tall small green plant growing in the swamp. It was hidden among the surrounding vegetation, very inconspicuous. If not for Liu Yiyi’s sharp eyes, Ye Yun might have truly missed it. After all, he had never seen this Nine-leaf Jade Grass before.

”There really is Immortal Nectar Dew on it!” Ye Yun glanced over and saw a crystal-clear dewdrop resting on each of the nine leaves. These dewdrops had no particular fragrance and looked quite ordinary resting on the leaves.

The two of them immediately flew over.

Liu Yiyi descended from mid-air, took out a small white jade bottle, and prepared to collect the Immortal Nectar Dew.

Liu Yiyi’s face was flushed, her heart pounding with excitement. She gently reached out her hand and said with a beaming smile, ”Brother Yun, our luck is incredible this time! We found a Nine-leaf Jade Grass with Immortal Nectar Dew so easily.”

”Yeah!” Ye Yun smiled faintly. Though he appeared nonchalant, his Divine Sense was already scanning the surroundings.

Just then, his expression shifted slightly. He noticed a ball of fire rapidly approaching them from the southeast.
