Chapter 663: Chapter 663: The Ancient Giant Demon Really Lives Up to Its Name

The void fluctuated. A small vortex suddenly spun out, and then a beam of light descended. Upon witnessing this, the silver-robed youth instantly became excited. A Jade Slip floated in the middle of the light. The silver-robed youth abruptly caught it and infused a strand of mana into it. After listening to the message in the Jade Slip, a peculiar expression appeared on the silver-robed youth’s face. He hadn’t expected them to make such a decision.

Tianjige had decided to claim Blood Spirit Tian’s Dragon God’s blood. However, for the other Three Supreme Heavens, the higher-ups had also decided to bestow a few fishing rods for them to distribute.

After he finished with the Jade Slip, the pillar of light trembled, revealing several silver fishing rods. The silver-robed youth counted them: there were a total of five Deep well fishing rods.

The Sect’s high-ranking officials really do favor these Three Supreme Heavens. I wonder what they’re after... The silver-robed youth sighed, a hint of puzzlement on his face. He didn’t quite understand why the opportunities from the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse were to be shared among the four Supreme Sects of the Heavenly Sun Dynasty.

My position is still too low; there are many secrets I’m not privy to... The silver-robed youth gave a bitter smile and placed the other containers of Dragon God’s blood into the pillar of light.

WHOOSH!

The pillar of light fiercely retracted into the vortex, taking the Dragon God’s blood with it. The vortex vanished, and space returned to its normal state. Holding the fishing rods, the silver-robed youth left the room again.

Plenty of fishing rods, huh... Ye Yun observed quietly, a hint of mockery in his eyes. This was very close to what he had guessed. Tianjige desperately needed higher-quality Dragon God’s blood, so naturally, they couldn’t let the blood of the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon slip away. Therefore, those six fishing rods would naturally go to Blood Spirit Tian. As for the other three major sects, like Great Sun Heaven, they also received some compensation.

Ye Yun was very interested. With Tianjige acting like this, trying to treat everyone equally, what exactly were they scheming? Originally, Ye Yun had considered taking all these fishing rods. However, if he did that, Tianjige would just continue to offer compensation, which would become pointless.

”Sir, how did it go?” the yellow-robed old man from Great Sun Heaven hurried forward and asked anxiously.

The other two Sect Masters, from Shenluo Tian and Jiuyou Tian, fixed their gazes on the fishing rods in the silver-robed youth’s hand, their expressions growing complicated. What on earth is happening? Bringing out five more Deep well fishing rods... Are they going to break precedent now?

”The Dragon God’s blood provided by Blood Spirit Tian is of extremely high quality. The higher-ups are very satisfied. Therefore, the previous six Deep well fishing rods now belong to Blood Spirit Tian...” the silver-robed youth announced after clearing his throat.

The faces of the Sect Masters from the Three Supreme Heavens stiffened. They hadn’t expected this outcome.

”Sir, then we only have one fishing rod left? This is too unfair!” the yellow-robed elder said discontentedly.

”These five fishing rods will be for your three factions to compete for...” the silver-robed youth said with a smile, holding up the five fishing rods in his hand.

”Sigh...” The yellow-robed elder sighed dejectedly, feeling helpless. They were compensated with five fishing rods, but the three factions still had to share them. That was still one rod less for them to divide than the previous batch.

Thinking of Blood Spirit Tian now possessing seven fishing rods (their original one plus these six), the other Sect Masters felt a surge of imbalance. They looked at Nan Shaohua, their eyes filled with intense animosity.

”Little Seven, come out. We’re leaving!” Ye Yun called out softly in a certain direction after stowing away the six fishing rods.

”Coming, Big Brother!” Little Seven replied, trotting out with a smile.

Holding Little Seven’s hand, Ye Yun glanced at Nan Shaohua, then leisurely retraced his steps and walked out. Nan Shaohua followed closely behind.

”Blood Spirit Tian has always been mysterious. I didn’t expect them to teach us such a lesson today...” the yellow-robed elder muttered, looking into the distance with a gloomy expression.

”No matter how strong Blood Spirit Tian is, how can they possibly stand against our combined Three Supreme Heavens?” the gray-robed elder sneered.

”Once the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse business is over, our three sects will join forces and teach Blood Spirit Tian a lesson!” the black-robed elder from Shenluo Tian sneered.

”Alright, that’s enough. There’s no need to fight to the death. After all, Tianjige needs a stable Heavenly Sun Dynasty...” the silver-robed youth said indifferently, raising an eyebrow slightly.

”Sir, we understand. We were just joking earlier!” The yellow-robed elder chuckled.

The group gathered and began discussing the allocation of the Deep well fishing rods.

Ye Yun led Little Seven out of the auction house.

”These three Deep well fishing rods are for you.” Turning to Nan Shaohua, Ye Yun took out three Deep well fishing rods and handed them to her.

”Senior, these are your fishing rods! How could this junior accept something so valuable from you?” Nan Shaohua’s face flushed red as she quickly waved her hands in refusal.

”The founder of your Blood Spirit Tian and I are close friends, so we’re hardly strangers. Take these three Deep well fishing rods; don’t worry about it,” Ye Yun said with a smile.

”Alright then.” Nan Shaohua reluctantly accepted them. As the Sect Master of Blood Spirit Tian, she truly didn’t know how to repay this senior for his immense kindness to Blood Spirit Tian.

”Where is the Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse?” Ye Yun asked.

Nan Shaohua adopted a solemn expression and replied respectfully, ”Senior, I will give you the coordinates. When the time comes for it to open, you can go directly. I will be there waiting for you.” After she finished speaking, she quietly sent a voice transmission to Ye Yun, giving him the coordinates.

Ye Yun nodded. Then he and Little Seven floated away.

Nan Shaohua also went to a specific location in Flying Immortal City and used a Teleportation Array to return to Blood Spirit Tian.

「Strolling through Flying Immortal City」

”Little Seven, what’s your greatest wish in this life?” Ye Yun asked with a smile, lowering his head and gently stroking Little Seven’s hair.

”Big Brother, my biggest wish in this life is to break through to the Nirvana Realm and surpass my master, that old man...” Little Seven said with a wide grin.

Break through to the Nirvana Realm? That’s too simple, isn’t it? Ye Yun was speechless. Fortunately, this was Little Seven and not Yun Xiao. If it were Yun Xiao, he would never say something so lacking in ambition.

Looking at Ye Yun, Little Seven suddenly asked, ”Big Brother, do you think I’m not ambitious enough?”

”It’s alright. I just think you should aim for a higher cultivation realm...” Ye Yun replied with a smile.

”I don’t know why, but I feel like reaching the Nirvana Realm will be the greatest cultivation achievement of my life...” Little Seven said with a dejected sigh.

”Don’t worry. I’ll help you reach the Nirvana Realm first, and then, step by step, we’ll work towards the Eternal Realm,” Ye Yun said with a smile.

”Forget the Eternal Realm; I don’t even dare to dream of the Life and Death Realm!” Little Seven giggled, then suddenly pointed into the distance and shouted, ”Look, Big Brother, they’re selling sugar gourds over there! Do you want one?”

Sugar gourds? Ye Yun paused. How many years had it been since he’d eaten one of those?

”Let’s get some together,” Ye Yun said with a wry smile, leading Little Seven over.

「In a certain mysterious space」

A vortex suddenly appeared, and two men exuding a terrifying aura stepped out. Both men were dressed in silver robes and wore silver masks, making it impossible to see their faces. The light around them was dim, and faint black mist swirled about.

Below their feet lay a colossal black well, resembling the gaping maw of a giant beast that had cracked open the earth. This black well was exceptionally unique. It was vast, with an immense diameter spanning tens of thousands of meters, and encircled by a round stone rim a hundred meters high. A layer of black gas floated over the well water, which was as still as a stagnant pond.

The surroundings were deathly still.

If the Sect Masters of the Four Great Sects were present, they would undoubtedly recognize this as the legendary Deep Well of Ghastly Corpse!

SPLASH!

The surface of the water churned.

A pillar of black gas suddenly erupted from the well water, spewing upwards. High in the air, the black pillar of gas lost its upward momentum and dispersed into black gas. It then cascaded downwards like a tide, blanketing the entire mouth of the well.

SPLASH!

Another pillar of black gas shot out.

”This black, noxious gas... its eruptions have become increasingly violent in recent years...” one of the men observed, looking down with an air of indifference.

”The Ancient Giant Demon truly lives up to its name. Even in death, its remnants still cause such disturbances!” the other man snorted coldly.
