Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 797: Chapter 797: This is Reverse Bow Sha

「Outside the Gui Gou Abyss.」

「In the Ancient Tomb Hall.」

”Effective... it’s really effective!”

The white-haired old man’s eyes widened, joy spreading across his face.

Two hours had passed.

Li Qikong had absorbed a substantial amount of Qi Luck from the young lady. Once it entered his body, like a long dragon, it slowly began to neutralize the power of the curse.

Miraculously, a portion of the curse’s power vanished.

Incredible! Is the power of Qi Luck truly this strong? the white-haired old man mumbled to himself.

Initially, his plan was for Li Qikong to absorb Qi Luck merely to suppress the curse within his body.

Unexpectedly, this young lady’s Qi Luck was so potent that it directly neutralized the curse’s power.

It was truly astonishing!

Li Qikong withdrew his palm and opened his eyes, gazing at Ye Yun in utter disbelief.

The power of the curse in my body has actually lessened a bit; this is simply unbelievable!

”Young lady, you are my savior, Li Qikong’s savior!”

Li Qikong’s tiger-like eyes reddened, glistening with unshed tears, and he suddenly kowtowed deeply.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

He kowtowed to Ye Yun three resounding times.

Ye Yun smiled.

He had only used a minuscule amount of Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood, injecting it into Li Qikong to make a small part of the curse’s power within him disappear.

It couldn’t all disappear at once, or happiness would come too suddenly and might scare Li Qikong.

Anyway, Big Black Cat and the other two were following Yao Lingling on their way to the ancient tomb and hadn’t arrived here yet. There was plenty of time.

So, Ye Yun decided to gradually remove the curse from Li Qikong’s body.

”Old Daoist! It seems my Qi Luck is quite helpful to you, eh?” Ye Yun said, a slight smile on her face.

”It is! My life, Li Qikong’s life, I owe it all to you!” Li Qikong exclaimed, waving his hands, tears of emotion streaming down his face.

The young lady before him was now an invaluable treasure in his eyes.

Li Qikong believed that with a little more time, the curse’s power within his body would completely vanish.

Once that happened, he could return to the Divine Land to cultivate again.

Absorbing the spiritual energy imbued with divine nature would accelerate his cultivation. If he remained only in the Cangnan Continent, his cultivation base would stagnate.

As long as this young lady was present, no matter how many times he returned to the Divine Land, the curse’s power would not significantly affect him.

How could such a fortunate turn of events not make Li Qikong ecstatic?

”Old Daoist, is my Qi Luck sufficient? Can it completely neutralize the curse power in your body?” Ye Yun asked, a faint smile playing on her lips.

”Absolutely! You are a favored child of the Heavenly Dao. Just now, when I absorbed some of it, the Purple Dragon above your head showed no change. This indicates that your Qi Luck is immense, a rarity in this world!” Li Qikong said with astonishment.

”Then let’s continue. Strive to completely eliminate the curse power in your body!” Ye Yun said with a gentle smile, closing her eyes first.

”Words cannot express my gratitude. Once the curse is gone, I will repay you generously...” Li Qikong took a deep breath, settled back into a cross-legged position, and resumed operating the Cultivation Technique.

Qi Luck, like a dragon, poured into Li Qikong’s body.

Nearby, the white-haired old man watched this scene excitedly, his body trembling slightly.

A faint smile touched Ye Yun’s lips.

Actually, the so-called Qi Luck infusion was just an illusion he had created. What truly worked was the Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood he had injected into Li Qikong.

The hall was quiet. Time ticked by, second by second.

「Meanwhile.」

Far from the tomb of the First Ruthless Man, a golden Magic Boat was constantly battling Guiling bugs, slowly approaching the ancient tomb.

”Cat Brother, the Gui Gou Abyss is truly a forbidden land. We’ve been flying for so long and still haven’t seen even a shadow of the ancient tomb!” the Big Black Dog said helplessly, swatting away a Guiling bug with his paw.

Big Black Cat pursed his lips. ”What’s the rush? Yao Lingling has already arranged everything. We, who are experts in this line of work, can only truly shine once we reach the tomb.”

”Cat Brother, although the Ghost Qi around here is very faint, there are indeed a lot of Guiling bugs. They come in wave after wave, seemingly endless, and it’s seriously hampering our speed!” the Sky-boring Rat complained.

”Just consider it training!” Big Black Cat chuckled drily. Suddenly remembering something, he added, ”In the past, Master often sent me out for training. The dangers I encountered then were far more terrifying than this! You two don’t need to be afraid. If anything truly unexpected happens, I’ll get us out of here!”

”Cat Brother has the Teleportation Boots! That’s an incredible treasure!” At this, the Sky-boring Rat stared at Big Black Cat’s feet with burning eyes, wishing he could snatch those Teleportation Boots right off him.

”Haha, Cat Brother, then we’re counting on you!” the Big Black Dog laughed.

”Teleportation Boots?”

The Sect Master of Yao Lingling—the young man—suddenly turned his head, his gaze subtly, yet intently, fixed on Big Black Cat.

His eyes naturally fell upon Big Black Cat’s feet.

Big Black Cat had already refined these Teleportation Boots. However, to maintain a low profile, he had made their Super Divine Dragon Breath converge and even added a simple Blindfold Method.

So, to others, they appeared to be just an ordinary pair of boots.

Big Black Cat snorted inwardly. What are you looking at? He glared back at the young man unapologetically.

Although this Sect Master of Yao Lingling had a much higher cultivation base than him, Big Black Cat was not afraid.

If he truly had to use the Teleportation Boots, he was confident he could escape with his life.

Fortunately, the Yao Lingling Sect Master only glanced back for a moment before rejoining the battle.

Only then did Big Black Cat relax.

The Guiling bugs were repelled wave after wave, and the golden Magic Boat steadily approached the tomb of the First Ruthless Man.

「Two days later.」

After fighting off the last wave of Guiling bugs, the group finally saw a large, earth-yellow tomb standing amidst the swirling black miasma of the abyss.

”Ha! So this is the tomb of the First Ruthless Man! It’s enormous, like a slumbering dragon. What a magnificent construction!” the Big Black Dog exclaimed, his eyes shining as he gazed at the ancient tomb ahead.

The sight of a tomb, especially a large one, always filled him with an irrepressible excitement.

”It’s been too long since we last went tomb raiding! This time, we three brothers must cooperate perfectly!” the Sky-boring Rat said, rubbing his palms together, looking eager to begin.

Many of the other Demon Clan members were also expert tomb raiders. Upon seeing the First Ruthless Man’s tomb, they all lost their composure.

The only one who remained relatively calm was Big Black Cat.

”Can you two try to be a little more composed?” Big Black Cat curled his lip, looking somewhat disdainfully at his two companions.

An Eternity Realm tomb? What’s so exciting about that?

The golden Magic Boat suddenly accelerated, flying directly to the entrance of the great tomb.

”Everyone, this is the tomb of the First Ruthless Man. It contains many traps and abundant sha-energy. From this point on, we’ll be relying on your skills,” the Sect Master of Yao Lingling, the young man, announced in a clear voice.

”Understood!”

”Senior, rest assured! We will definitely do our utmost!”

Everyone readily agreed.

The golden Magic Boat landed outside the tomb’s entrance, and everyone disembarked.

To be cautious, the spot where they landed was still over ten thousand feet from the tomb’s entrance.

POP. POP.

In the void, slight sounds suddenly arose. Void Ripples, suffused with dense sha-energy, undulated before everyone like water waves.

”This is Reverse Bow Sha!” Old Goat Head reacted the quickest, shouting out first as he thrust a mirror before him.

The Yao Lingling cultivators, seeing the unfavorable situation, immediately retreated some distance, taking cover behind the Demon Clan experts they had invited.

WHIZZ! WHIZZ!

From within the Void Ripples, green arrows suddenly materialized. The arrow shafts, wreathed in dense sha-energy and emitting shrill sounds, shot towards the group.
