Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 643: Chapter 643: Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse

As Ye Yun looked around for the Dragon God Monument, so did the other demon beasts. One by one, they craned their necks, looking somewhat peculiar.

Only Little Cat was still sobbing quietly.

The Nether Blood Green Wooden Dragon curiously asked, ”Little Cat, didn’t you have thorns on your body? Why didn’t they activate on their own earlier?”

”Senior, you must be talking about the Rainbow Colored-Nimbus Master gave me. I’ve only managed to refine a little of it, and I’m not very adept at using it yet, so I didn’t react in time...” Little Cat said dejectedly, wiping away her tears.

”Damn it! How could I forget about your Rainbow Colored-Nimbus? Damn it, I’m such an idiot!” Big Black Cat exclaimed, his eyes wide as he slapped his forehead violently in regret.

The memory of how viciously he’d been pricked last time was still unforgettable.

”Big Bro, don’t even think about bullying me anymore! I’m now at the Nirvana Tenth Level, and the speed at which I refine this Rainbow Colored-Nimbus will only get faster and faster...” Little Cat said angrily, puffing her cheeks as she glared at Big Black Cat.

Having said that, she secretly mobilized her mana, infusing it into the Rainbow Colored-Nimbus. A faint layer of rainbow-colored glow appeared on the surface of her skin.

Seeing that shimmering, rainbow-colored light, Big Black Cat’s expression immediately stiffened, his face turning slightly ashen.

He recovered quickly, his composure returning in an instant.

”Hey, Little Cat,” Big Black Cat said with a grin, patting his chest. ”We’ve been through life and death together so many times; how could I ever bear to hit you? Relax! Your Cat Brother makes this promise today: I won’t ever touch a single hair on your body again!”

”Mhm!” Little Cat exhaled softly, her expression improving as she nodded.

Although Big Black Cat had bullied her often, they had been through life-and-death situations together numerous times, forging a deep bond.

Seeing these two demon beasts instantly make peace, Ye Yun chuckled.

He understood Big Black Cat’s personality. Those words were probably spoken deliberately for Little Cat to hear.

”You two are both cats, so... you could be Dao companions in the future, right?” the Ruyi Jade Spider chuckled lightly.

She currently appeared as a five or six-year-old girl. Dressed in a flesh-colored gauze dress that revealed her translucent skin, she swung her chubby little hands behind her back, exuding an air of maturity beyond her years.

”...”

Hearing the Ruyi Jade Spider’s words, Little Cat’s pretty little face turned beet red.

It seems this little cat does have feelings for Little Black! the Ruyi Jade Spider pondered.

”Senior Ruyi,” Big Black Cat cupped his fists and said seriously, ”I have no room for women in my heart. I’m just a cultivation-crazy cat. Please, don’t try to find me a Dao companion...”

”No room for women in your heart?” The Ruyi Jade Spider paused for a moment, then burst out laughing, her crisp laughter echoing all around. ”Chuckling, she said, ’You really are a cultivation-crazy cat...’”

”Haha! What an interesting nickname!”

The surrounding demon beasts joined in the laughter.

”Little Black, I never thought you’d be the indifferent one while she clearly has feelings for you! You’re a tough character!” the Big Black Horse said with a laugh, baring his big white teeth.

”Yes, Uncle Ma! In this life, my goal is to be like Master—to stay away from women for all my days!” Big Black Cat suddenly declared.

”Haha!” Hearing Big Black Cat’s words, Ye Yun also started laughing.

No women in his heart, so his sword strikes with divine naturalness? That’s complete bullshit.

A hundred thousand years ago, Ye Yun’s heart was full of women, yet he was still the top expert in the Eternal Realm of the Cangnan Continent.

At that time, he was a young hero who burst onto the scene, never tasting defeat.

But those were just old stories, and Ye Yun didn’t want to mention them again. In any case, his confidantes on the Cangnan Continent were long gone. He had recently found two of his former confidantes from the Divine Land, but unfortunately, Yun Xiao’s condition was quite poor.

After some joking around, Ye Yun retracted his distant gaze; by now, he had found the Dragon God Monument.

He glanced at the layer of multicolored glow on Little Cat and nodded to himself, a pleased look in his eyes.

With an endless supply of Divine Soil Spirit Stones, these juniors of the Dragon God Sect had progressed rapidly in their cultivation. More than ten days had passed since they traveled from the Jiangchuan Dynasty to the Heavenly Sun Dynasty. During this time, several of them had achieved breakthroughs.

On the way to Shenluo Tian, Jun Moxiao had reached the late First Layer of the Destiny Realm. Luo Li and Su Wanyi had both reached the First Layer of the Destiny Realm. All three juniors of the Dragon God Sect were now in the Destiny Realm. Little Cat, meanwhile, had reached the Nirvana Tenth Level. She was not far from the Destiny Realm.

Now that this matter is settled, it should be time to inject more Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood into Luo Li and the other two... Ye Yun thought to himself. At their current Destiny Realm, their bodies should be able to handle an Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood concentration of around fifteen percent.

Increasing the concentration of Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood in one’s body was no easy task. These three juniors had limited innate talent. Ye Yun speculated that the final concentration of their Ancestral Dragon Bloodline would not exceed thirty percent.

After all, he was the only one in this world—a transmigrator, an anomaly akin to a system glitch—who could reach a ninety-nine percent concentration of Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood.

Though he had heard the demon beasts causing a ruckus just moments before, and despite the loud noise, Shenluo Tian had remained quiet, with no one noticing. Ye Yun had long since placed a barrier around the area.

”Let’s go and take a look ahead,” Ye Yun said, gazing at a magnificent hall deep within the mist. He then strolled forward leisurely, his demeanor relaxed.

The Dragon God Monument was enshrined within that very hall.

The other demon beasts suppressed their playful mood and followed closely behind Ye Yun.

The group swaggered to the entrance of the hall.

The door was ajar.

Ye Yun stood at the partially open door, peering inside.

Inside the hall, the Dragon God Monument was enshrined high up. On an altar table before it, an incense burner held several lit incense sticks, smoke curling continuously upwards.

Several black-robed elders stood below the Dragon God Monument. Among them was a pale-faced, black-robed elder—the very same Deputy Sect Master who had attacked the Bottomless Pit.

”Sect Master, our Shenluo Tian failed to conquer the Bottomless Pit this time. I fear we’ll become a laughingstock for the other Three Supreme Heavens...” the pale-faced elder said with a dejected look, sighing.

”Shenluo Tian is powerful! Why should we fear the other Three Supreme Heavens? I doubt they would dare to laugh at us!” a burly, black-robed elder, hands clasped behind his back, gazed up at the Dragon God Monument and said in a deep voice. ”Wasting one use of the Town Dragon Tablet is truly a pity!”

As soon as these words fell, the faces of the other black-robed elders instantly darkened.

”This Town Dragon Tablet of ours only had two uses, and now I’ve wasted one...” the pale-faced elder looked vexed, sighing repeatedly.

”I wonder... when will the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse appear again? It must have been ten thousand years since its last appearance, right?” the burly elder mused, his gaze fixed on the Town Dragon Tablet.

”It has been ten thousand years. Back then, this very Town Dragon Tablet was fished out from the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse,” another long-faced elder chimed in, rubbing his hands together excitedly. ”I’ve had a hunch recently that the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse is about to appear...”

”The Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse is ever-changing; who can truly predict it?” the burly elder glanced at him and chuckled nonchalantly.

「Outside the main hall.」

Hearing their conversation, a peculiar expression appeared on Ye Yun’s face.
