16: Chapter 16 Big Brother, please save this little girl!
"Even in death, you still possess such imposing power?"
A powerful and ancient pressure, accompanied by gravity, pressed heavily upon Ye Xuan, but how could such a minor level of force possibly make him yield?
Compared to the pain he experienced at the bottom of the Sunset Ravine, this gravity was not worth mentioning.
Finally, when Ye Xuan approached within three meters of the skeleton, the pressure vanished.
"Senior, this junior is not a person without virtue. Having received your inheritance and your golden body, I will also ensure you are laid to rest."
Ye Xuan bowed deeply.
It seemed to be the final obsession of that powerful expert; the faint, lingering killing intent in the space only finally dissipated at this moment.
Ye Xuan held the moon spirit sword and swung it a few times at the ground, forming a huge grave pit, and immediately gave the withered bones a proper burial.
If not for the fact that this senior had almost exhausted all his essence, energy, and spirit before death, Ye Xuan feared he would not have been able to enter the tomb.
Now it was time to look at the harvest: the zhu xian sword!
Ye Xuan held it in his palm and examined it carefully.
The sword's body shone like snowflakes, and the blade revealed glimmers of cold light. Amidst its antique appearance, it emitted a dangerous aura; the sharp blade seemed capable of severing all things.
"What a fine zhu xian sword."
Ye Xuan performed a sword flourish, a hint of satisfaction flashing across his face. This sword truly did not disappoint him.
The master of the tomb was a Quasi-Emperor, and the resources in his spirit ring before death were truly astonishing.
There were spiritual stones the size of three small hills, several bottles of spiritual medicine of unknown grade, and over a dozen strange talismans.
"How truly wealthy. With these things, I will not lack cultivation resources in the near future."
Ye Xuan sighed endlessly. In the senior's remaining memories, the old senior had used up almost all healing spiritual medicines to treat his wounds, so most of the remaining spiritual medicines could only be used to enhance strength.
The greatest benefit of this trip was not anything else, but this zhu xian sword. With it, he would not need to worry about finding good weapons for a long time to come.
After searching the tomb over and over again, Ye Xuan found a map with "Dark Flame Divine Fire" written on it on the white jade throne.
"Heh, is this the key to Yun Zhe awakening the Dark Flame Divine Body?" Ye Xuan took a look with interest, then put it away.
If he hadn't looked carefully, he would have been fooled by this Quasi-Emperor senior.
Ye Xuan determined that there were no more opportunities here, so he climbed upward along the spiritual rope outside the tomb space.
This time, Ye Xuan also wanted to confirm one thing: now that he had taken away all the opportunities of the protagonist Yun Zhe, could this guy Yun Zhe still find new opportunities?
This was also a test of life's destiny.
The sky was about to darken, and Ye Xuan dared not delay any longer, hurrying to climb up the spiritual rope.
With only Feng Xueni guarding up there, he was very worried.
In less than the time it takes to burn an incense stick, Ye Xuan returned to Duanyue Cliff.
"Big Brother Ye, you have finally returned." There was worry in Feng Xueni's beautiful eyes, but upon seeing Ye Xuan come up, she felt much more at ease.
Otherwise, when night fell, Feng Xueni would have to find a place to hide; otherwise, there were too many Magic Beasts here, and it would be very easy to encounter danger.
"Let's go, let's go back together."
Ye Xuan smiled and patted the girl's head.
"Okay." Feng Xueni obediently enjoyed Ye Xuan's head pat. "By the way, Big Brother Ye, did you finish your business?"
She still remembered Ye Xuan saying that coming to this dangerous Duanyue Cliff was to complete a mission.
"Yes."
Ye Xuan nodded and raised the zhu xian sword in his hand.
"Wow, is this sword left to Big Brother Ye by an old friend? It's truly beautiful." Feng Xueni looked at the long silver sword, stars almost popping out of her eyes, and said innocently, "Big Brother Ye is really something, going through the dangerous Duanyue Cliff just for it."
Thinking for a moment, Ye Xuan took a bottle of Marrow Cleansing Pills from his spirit ring.
"Take this. If it weren't for you, silly girl, Big Brother Ye wouldn't have been able to get this sword so easily today."
"Then Xueni thanks Big Brother Ye."
Feng Xueni stretched out her fair, tender small hand to take the Marrow Cleansing Pills, and then quietly made intimate contact with that large hand. Her pretty face turned a lovely shade of red. Having never had any contact with a man before, a seed was quietly planted in her heart.
[Name: Feng Xueni]
[Age: 14]
[Realm: True Profound Realm Third Layer]
[Constitution: Divine Phoenix Body (Unawakened)]
[Destiny: Heavenly Empress (Gold), Peerless Beauty (Purple), Phoenix Nirvana (Gold)]
[Favorability: 85]
Ye Xuan was extremely satisfied when he saw this.
Because when they first met, this girl already had a favorability of 60, and after just a few days of contact, it had reached 85.
Speaking of which, the stranger thing was that since coming to the Magic Beast Forest these past few days, they had turned danger into safety several times along the way. Could it be caused by this silly girl's terrifying luck?
After tossing and turning all night, Ye Xuan was very tired now, but he knew this place was not suitable for a long stay.
Taking advantage of the early morning, he hurriedly took Feng Xueni to leave Duanyue Cliff.
The sky gradually darkened again, the eerie sounds in the Magic Beast Forest increased, and danger was quietly approaching.
Ye Xuan and Feng Xueni returned to the cave where they had stayed last night, intending to rest for the night before making a push to leave this place.
"Roar—Roar—Roar!"
The roars of fierce beasts broke the night's tranquility. Ye Xuan frowned. This was the call of a tiger Magic Beast. Could it be a Purple Flame Tiger?
Before leaving Dahuang Town, that old man, Grandpa Zhang, repeatedly emphasized that the most terrifying Magic Beast in the Magic Beast Forest was a Purple Flame Tiger that was infinitely close to the Fifth Rank.
"Big Brother Ye, I'm scared!" Beside him, Feng Xueni's pretty face instantly turned pale, and she hugged Ye Xuan.
"Be good, Xueni. Stay here and don't move. I will be right back."
Ye Xuan knew that something must have happened outside. After settling Feng Xueni, he carefully sprinkled some spiritual medicine to repel Magic Beasts, and then set off toward the source of the sound with peace of mind.
Since reaching the Ninth Layer of the True Profound Realm, his soul had become much stronger and was now no less than that of a Spirit Profound Realm cultivator; poor night vision was not a problem for him.
Ye Xuan used his divine sense to perceive the source of the sound, wanting to see what exactly had happened.
Fifty miles away.
A white light shadow was fleeing at high speed, followed by a huge purple-black shadow.
Examining closely, it was a woman being chased by a Purple Flame Tiger.
"What a vicious woman, actually luring the Purple Flame Tiger toward me."
Ye Xuan immediately sensed that the woman was rushing toward him. His face darkened instantly, and then he sensed a familiar aura.
"It's her! Wang Yueer?"
"Big Brother, please quickly save this young maiden." Wang Yueer rushed in the direction where she sensed the divine sense, looking disheveled.
Fifty miles seemed close at hand in the face of death.
One person and one beast were staging a chase. The Purple Flame Tiger swiped its claws again, and the large tree in its path shattered into four or five pieces instantly.
"This bitch probably found something good, otherwise she wouldn't have provoked a Purple Flame Tiger that is almost Fifth Rank." Ye Xuan judged.
"Junior Brother Ye, is it you? Please quickly save your Senior Sister!" Wang Yueer looked up and, as if seeing a lifeline, shouted in ecstasy.
At this moment, the woman's hair was messy, her clothes were torn, revealing her skin, and her aura was extremely weak; one could tell at a glance that she was seriously injured.
