#580 - Hey guys, isn't the scenery here nice?
Jun Wuxie estimated that Tian Ming and his group should still be there.
He had overheard their conversation outside.
That group of people hated him to the core. Now that they knew he was here, how could they give up just because they had to wait a little longer?
“Those middle-stage Half-Saints of the Heavenly Fate Sect, I’ve actually thought of a way to deal with them, but if they really call in a late-stage Half-Saint, I wonder if this method will work?”
He got up and walked to the front of the demonic corpse. After being in here for so long, this was the first time he had clearly seen this evil corpse.
The clothes on the evil corpse were very old, and the texture was very good, surprisingly not decayed.
He walked closer, peered at it, looked left, looked right, and even reached out and plucked a few red hairs.
“This guy probably isn’t a creature from a normal universe, is he? His body is full of dark energy. Could he be a Dark Spirit from the Dark Universe?”
As he muttered to himself, he poked and prodded at the evil corpse, touching here and there. Finally, he shook his head and said, “You’re really too poor. You came out of the Dark Realm, didn’t you bring any treasures with you? Meeting for the first time, you didn’t even prepare a little gift. So stingy!”
He didn’t notice that the corner of the evil corpse’s mouth twitched a few times when he said this.
Just as he was about to search carefully again, the evil corpse suddenly moved.
This movement startled him, and he suddenly retreated, his eyes flashing with cold light.
The evil corpse wasn’t completely dead?
He was vigilant, he couldn’t afford to capsize in the gutter at this time.
“Creature of the Bright Realm, please help me to be free…”
The evil corpse made a vague sound, but Jun Wuxie heard it clearly. Its divine sense fluctuations were clearly transmitted to his mind.
“Be free? How do you want me to help you be free? Is it to unlock the chains on your body, or to pull out the ancient sword in your heart?”
Jun Wuxie naturally wouldn’t believe the evil corpse. After all, this was a creature from the Dark Realm, probably trying to fool him.
“No, I want you to suck away the dark matter energy in my body, so that my obsession, which has suffered so much, can be completely at peace…”
“What trick are you trying to play?”
Jun Wuxie stared coldly at the evil corpse.
“Creatures of the Dark Realm are not all as you think. We are not born to be brutal. Some of us also yearn for peace, yearn for the prosperity of the heavens. We are also victims of that disaster…”
“What do you mean? You are the victims, then what are we, creatures who cultivate bright matter energy?”
“We are all victims…”
“Hmph, isn’t the root of all disasters from your Dark Realm? It was you who launched the dark turmoil that swept through the heavens, causing endless creatures to suffer, and the haze of doomsday to shroud ancient and modern times!”
“You’re right, our Dark Realm is the source of the disaster, but it wasn’t like this a long, long time ago. Suddenly one day, everything changed. In fact, we are no different from you, just born in different time and space with different fundamental attributes.”
“Why does your Dark Realm want to attack us?”
“I don’t know. We were also looking for the answer to this question back then. I am just a slightly less ordinary creature among the ordinary creatures of the Dark Realm. After enduring the long years, I have almost worn away the power of the curse in my body. Otherwise, with your current realm, even if you have amazing secrets in your body, it is impossible to resist this level of Dark Curse.”
Jun Wuxie was silent. He was thinking about the evil corpse’s words.
At this time, he also realized a problem.
How could the Dark Curse work on creatures of the Dark Realm? Didn’t it only infect the previous creatures of the Dark Realm?
But the Dark Spirit in front of him, who was suspected to be from the Dark Realm, was actually infected!
“Unfortunately, I can’t resist it after all. The power of the Dark Curse has not been completely worn away, but my true soul has exhausted its last strength, and now only a wisp of obsession remains. If you suck away my dark energy, I will only be an ordinary corpse, otherwise, when my obsession disappears, I will completely turn into a ferocious thing that only knows how to kill and destroy!”
“How could the creatures of your Dark Realm be eroded by the Dark Curse?”
The evil corpse said, “Legend has it that there is a supreme will in our Dark Realm. Anyone who violates the supreme will and is unwilling to submit will undergo a strange change. Even I myself do not know when this Dark Curse existed in my body. Until one day it suddenly broke out, eroded me, and tried to control my main soul. I had no choice but to lock myself up and kill myself with my weapon!”
“So, you killed yourself?”
Jun Wuxie was considering how much of the evil corpse’s words were true and how much were false.
In any case, its identity as a Dark Realm creature made him afraid to believe it.
“I have no choice, and now I only want to be free. I don’t want to become a ferocious evil after my obsession dissipates. Please suck away all the power in my body. This will be of great benefit to you, and it is also the best destination for me. I am too tired, and it is time for dust to return to dust, and earth to return to earth…”
The evil corpse’s voice was very low, with deep fatigue and sorrow, a feeling of a hero’s twilight. The sincere tone was very touching.
“You only seek liberation, I can guarantee this, you will get your wish.” Jun Wuxie looked at the evil corpse warily for a moment, and said, “Sucking away the dark energy in your body is also what I have been planning to do, but not now.”
“My obsession is about to fail, you need to hurry. Come on, end me, so that I can have no regrets and sleep peacefully…”
His voice became more and more sad.
“Don’t worry, you have endured for eternity, can’t you wait a few more days?”
Jun Wuxie returned to the stone pillar and stopped paying attention to the evil corpse after speaking.
He always felt that something was wrong.
The evil corpse asked him to suck away its dark power, which was also what he had decided to do long ago, but he just felt that something was not quite right.
He shook his head and stopped dwelling on it.
The evil corpse was trapped and suppressed by the ancient sword piercing its heart, so it couldn’t cause any trouble.
He turned his hand and took out a transparent small bottle, which was full of liquid interwoven with silver lightning patterns.
This was the Lightning Tribulation Fluid obtained from passing the Three Realms Great Tribulation, which had the powerful effect of improving one’s talent level!
“Now is the time to take the Lightning Tribulation Fluid. When I advance to the Eternal Legend, I will definitely give those guys a surprise! Plotting against me, chasing me, besieging me, do you really think you can put me to death? You’re thinking too beautifully!”
Jun Wuxie’s eyes were very cold, and he was now full of fighting spirit and powerful confidence.
The dual breakthrough in realm and talent growth intensity made his strength far superior to that of the Half-Saint Realm.
Just breaking through the bottleneck of the Saint Realm alone greatly increased his strength several times, plus the breakthrough in talent growth intensity, that was a ten-fold increase.
Also, at the Saint Realm, compared to the Half-Saint Realm, the suppression of the Half-Saint domain on him was not so terrifying.
Opening the bottle stopper, the pure origin of thunder permeated out, causing crackling electric sparks to flash in the nearby void.
There was space inside the bottle, and there was a lot of Lightning Tribulation Fluid inside.
He took a big gulp, and the Lightning Tribulation Fluid in the bottle only decreased slightly.
As soon as the Lightning Tribulation Fluid entered his mouth, it quickly turned into the origin of thunder, turning into thousands of strands of electric arcs that rushed towards his limbs and bones, instantly making his body feel an extremely strong sense of numbness, and his whole body was in severe pain. His internal organs, meridians, flesh, and bones all had a feeling of being violently torn apart.
Jun Wuxie endured it, allowing the power of the thunder origin to wreak havoc in his body, tempering his body. He just circulated his life essence, constantly repairing the places damaged by the power of the thunder origin.
This tempering process was relatively slow.
Another month passed in the blink of an eye.
Jun Wuxie was still tempering his body. He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the Eternal Legend. The bottleneck had already begun to loosen, and he was confident that he could take that step!
At that time, he would be able to step from the Legendary Realm into the Eternal Legendary Realm!
…
At the same time, near the swamp, the Half-Saints of the Heavenly Purity Sect, the Ancient Phoenix Sect, the Golden Ancient City, and the Soul Hunting Hall were showing some impatience in their eyes.
“It’s been three whole months, could that kid have died in the cave?”
Some lesser Half-Saints couldn’t hold back anymore. Whenever they thought of Jun Wuxie, they gnashed their teeth in hatred. If they couldn’t personally torture him to death, it would be a great regret in their lives!
“Didn’t someone go down to check a few days ago? There were flashes of lightning in the cave, which must have been caused by that kid. He is still alive and well. However, he is probably afraid to come out easily, knowing that we are guarding outside!”
“Hmm, he doesn’t seem to realize what the point of shrinking back like this is? Unless he can stay in that cave with the red-haired demon forever! He will always have to come out, he can’t escape. Death is the ending he must face!”
“I want to see how long he can shrink back inside. We have plenty of time, so we will slowly wear him down. Can he outlast us?”
“When he comes out, I will skin him alive!”
The Half-Saints of several Supreme Masters all spoke with cold words and murderous intent.
A small warrior actually caused such heavy losses to their Supreme Masters, and dared to set up a trap to kill so many of their Half-Saints. This was intolerable!
“Hmm, when the time comes, we will peel off his human skin and make it into a lantern, and hang it together with his head on the city gate of the Great Zhou Imperial City!”
Gu Yin said this. Whenever he thought of the miserable screams of the female Half-Saint who had a very good relationship with him during the lightning tribulation, he gnashed his teeth in hatred and trembled all over.
Outrageous!
For Half-Saints among their Supreme Masters to kill a low-realm warrior was to bestow death. The target should consciously accept the judgment of death. Not only did that kid resist, but he also dared to set up a counter-kill. Unforgivable!
“When the time comes, how we torture him to death will not be a problem!” Tian Ming sneered, “As of today, three months have passed, and the Military Saint has not appeared. In this case, she is probably entangled in something and cannot come. In this world, who else can save him? No one!”
…
In the mountains on the north and south banks of the swamp.
The Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saints from the Heavenly Purity Sect and the Ancient Phoenix Sect had been under the ancient tree, unmoving for months.
The space around them was distorted, making them appear blurry, but their sharp, cold eyes were very noticeable, causing unease and discouraging direct eye contact.
“He is about to come out. I feel a fluctuation far exceeding the Saint Realm emanating from the swamp below. This child’s talent is indeed astonishing, but his path has narrowed, and he is destined to end here,” the Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saint of the Heavenly Purity Sect transmitted to the Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saint of the Ancient Phoenix Sect.
“Since ancient times, no one has dared to provoke our sects in such a manner. If we fail to torture and kill this child, how will our sects maintain any face in the world? He must die!” the Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saint of the Ancient Phoenix Sect said.
“Hmm, Fellow Daoist is right…” the Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saint of the Heavenly Purity Sect responded, a cruel smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. Just then, his voice suddenly stopped, and he looked in surprise at the Great Heavenly Completion powerhouse of the Ancient Phoenix Sect who had suddenly appeared beside him, saying, “Why did Fellow Daoist suddenly come to my side?”
The corners of the Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saint of the Ancient Phoenix Sect twitched, but he couldn't make a sound.
The Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saint of the Heavenly Purity Sect was feeling puzzled when he saw large beads of cold sweat constantly flowing down from his forehead and temples.
“Fellow Daoist, you…” He was about to ask when he felt a hand land on his shoulder. In that instant, it was as if an endless mountain range was pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to move. At the same time, a terrifying and irresistible sword intent rushed straight into his mind, threatening to tear his soul apart.
His body trembled, and his whole person froze.
He looked at the Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saint of the Ancient Phoenix Sect, who was also looking at him. Both saw horror in each other's eyes.
Then, gathering their courage, the two slowly turned their heads, and a heroic face came into view. The person wore a peaceful smile and said, “The scenery here is not bad, is it?”
The lips of the two Great Heavenly Completion Half-Saints trembled, their Adam’s apples bobbed up and down, and they opened their mouths, but couldn't make a single sound.
