“I will not interfere in your matter, neither will I tell anyone about you or the treasure that could boost a person’s comprehensive ability.”
“However, you have to let go of the dream of making me work for you!”
Ye Xiao spoke.
“You must be kidding. Although I did tell you to let you go if you don’t want to work for me, I never promised you this. You are a treasure yourself. If I nurture you well, my Blood Shadow Tower’s strength will increase greatly and there might come a day where it could even face the Illusionary Spirit Gate, the strongest force in the entire Land of Morning Stars that is located in the Cloudy Sky Region.”
“No matter what, you have to work for me. If not, I will kill you and extract that bloodline of yours!”
A sinister light flashed in Fu Cheng’s eyes as he spoke coldly. At the same time, his body exuded killing intent, targeting Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao sighed. Then without saying anything, he teleported again to a different place, intending to leave. He teleported tens of miles in an instant and kept teleporting.
However, a burst of aura suddenly pressed down on him from above. When he raised his head, he found Fu Cheng floating above his head. It was clear that Fu Cheng was making use of his understanding of Wind Force fully in order to chase after him.
“Since you are so dead set on not working for me, then I will kill you first before extracting that bloodline from your body.”
Fu Cheng spoke and attacked Ye Xiao with his fist.
Ye Xiao teleported to the side and raised his finger. A ball of white flame suddenly appeared on his finger. The moment this flame appeared on Ye Xiao’s finger, the space itself started churning. It was as if the flame was burning the surroundings’ space.
Fu Cheng also felt a threat to his life that he did not feel for thousands of years. He could feel death approaching him as he looked at the white flame burning on Ye Xiao’s finger.
“What is that flame?”
These were the last words Fu Cheng could speak before he was ignited by the white flame.
Ye Xiao flicked his finger and the ball of white flame landed on Fu Cheng’s body. The flame did not burn Fu Cheng, instead, it first devoured all his cultivation before slowly started corroding his body at a speed as fast as lightning.
In an instant, his entire body turned into a puddle of liquid before evaporating.
Killing Fu Cheng was that easy!
Ye Xiao sighed and muttered, “You know what, I never wanted to use the Universe Essence Flame on anyone. You were courting death for forcing me to use the Universe Essence Flame. Well, its feedback is gonna kill me!”
Without a second thought, Ye Xiao sat down cross-legged, and the Universe Essence Flame returned to his body. The next moment, Ye Xiao felt a surge of massive energy exploding inside his body.
However, as soon as that massive energy appeared, it disappeared that quickly as well.
The Universe Essence Flame is a very unique flame Ye Xiao obtained from the Lotus of Chaos. And after Ye Xiao’s rebirth, just like his Infinity Edge Blade and the Void Shattering Spear, this flame was also strengthened to the next level. It could devour all kinds of energy and not only grow stronger but also feedback Ye Xiao, helping him become stronger as well.
But this was not it. Once someone is targeted by the Universe Essence Flame, it would corrode them in an instant. Yes, it would not burn them but corrode them, wearing them out completely.
Other than that, there are many other things the Universe Essence Flame could do.
What Ye Xiao used earlier was the original Universe Essence Flame, not the Nine Forms of Universe Essence Flame that he created a few months ago.
The Universe Essence Flame started feedbacking Ye Xiao after entering his body, however, because Universe Essence Flame stay inside his sealed universe not his body, all the massive energy that erupted also entered his universe and was absorbed by the Lotus of Chaos instead of his body.
Because of this, Ye Xiao was unable to improve further.
“Looks like I have to break the seal of my universe if I want to obtain benefits from the Universe Essence Flame.”
Ye Xiao sighed and shook his head. Then he stood up and looked at the surroundings.
Now that Fu Cheng was dead, he could search for the island and look for the treasure there. No one would come and find trouble with him.
Surprisingly, while Ye Xiao was teleporting away constantly without looking anywhere, he unknowingly arrived right in front of the island that was still moving somewhere along with the flow of water.
The island was not far away from Ye Xiao, so he hurriedly teleported to the border of the island and observed it.
For now, he could only see a huge forest. If he wanted to look for the treasure, he has to search for it.
Because of the formation created by Fu Cheng, not only the island but the entire ocean was affected by the treasure’s ability to boost a person’s comprehension ability. This caused Ye Xiao to be unable to find a specific direction to move.
He could only slowly search for the treasure.
…..
“Sou!” “Sou!”
Ye Xiao continuously traveled through the forest, moving as fast as he could. He also came across many Chaos Beasts in the forest, but he treated these Chaos Beasts as an object of training. In just five short days, the number of Chaos Beasts that died at Ye Xiao’s hands was no less than twenty. In fact, most of them were Chaos Dust Realm Chaos Beasts so Ye Xiao was able to take care of them with just one move.
As Ye Xiao was walking, he sensed a pair of vicious eyes staring at him from behind. It was a pair of eyes that glowed with a ghostly light. It was filled with bloodlust and killing intent.
“Whiz!”
A black figure shot toward Ye Xiao like an arrow leaving a bow. Its sharp claws could split open mountains; it was a vicious and brutal panther.
Ye Xiao could feel the sound of wind breaking behind him. He changed his stance and dodged it. What entered his vision was a huge panther; it was pitch black. Its eyes were blood-red, displaying its bloodlust and killing intent.
The panther was as fast as lightning. It was ferocious and ruthless. It was a Chaos Spirit Realm beast and the first Chaos Beast at this level that Ye Xiao encountered here!
The corner of Ye Xiao’s mouth curled up into a mocking smile. It had a hint of evilness to it.
“My hands just happen to itch. You can’t blame me for sending yourself over.” As he spoke, Ye Xiao’s hands released a mysterious light. He instantly punched out, causing his strength to suddenly erupt as he dived over.
“BOOM!”
Ye Xiao struck out with his fist and the Black Panther instantly dodged. Ye Xiao blasted down a huge tree with one punch.
“Buzz!” “Buzz!”
Ye Xiao flipped his fist and fire suddenly started burning his fist. Then Ye Xiao attacked again, colliding with the Black Panther.
“Bang!”
The Black Panther was sent flying and the place where his attack landed on its body was charred black.
Ye Xiao took advantage of this opportunity and instantly walked over to the Black Panther. Then he grabbed the Black Panther’s tail and swung it violently.
“BOOM!”
Ye Xiao slammed the Black Panther ruthlessly into the hard ground. In an instant, the entire ground trembled, sending rubble flying everywhere.
“Roar!”
The Black Panther cried out in pain as blood spurted out from its mouth.
However, Ye Xiao did not stop. The Chaos Beast had a tough body and was very resistant to being beaten up. Thus, Ye Xiao kept slamming its body continuously.
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”
“Aooo!”
The Black Panther’s angry roar turned into a wail. In this situation, there was no way to fight back, so it could only receive a beating. The Black Panther let out a blood-curdling screech as it continued to smash against the ground at a rapid pace, causing its voice to stutter as flesh and blood flew everywhere. It was an appalling scene of devastation.
The Black Panther only stopped wailing after the ground had been completely shattered and several large pits had appeared. It could no longer make a sound. It was dead.
And only then did Ye Xiao stop.
Looking at the corpse of Black Panther, Ye Xiao muttered, “I really can’t help it. I didn’t expect my strength to increase so much after advancing to the Chaos Spirit Realm. It seems just my physical strength is enough to deal with most of the Chaos Spirit Realm warriors.” ．𝙘𝙤𝙢
Ye Xiao smiled and then was ready to leave again. He has already been on this island for five days but had not been able to find the location of that hidden treasure. He has to hurry and look for it.
