452: Chapter 452 So there's such a treasure!
"I protest!" Chen You had completely broken down, pointing at Zhang Yunhai's nose and shouting.
"This is a political marriage! This is humiliation! I am a dignified Foundation Establishment Stage great cultivator, the immortal path pioneer of Huaxia, and you want me to enter a political marriage with a cyber female ghost?!"
"Her name is Invincible Beautiful Girl," Sun Feng corrected him rigorously from the side.
"Judging by her appearance modeling, she meets the aesthetic standards of high-quality human females; you aren't losing out."
"Shut up!" Chen You's voice rose by an octave. "What if her true form is a giant eyeball with dozens of tentacles? I couldn't bring myself to kiss that!"
The atmosphere in the hall, which had been extremely heavy, instantly shattered due to his shout.
Pan Yu turned her head away, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably.
Director Li Guoan's hand, holding a thermos, froze in mid-air.
He slammed the cup heavily onto the desktop.
"Stop letting your imagination run wild," Director Li Guoan said with a straight face. "Team Leader Zhang was just using a metaphor to test your psychological stress resistance."
Zhang Yunhai opened his mouth on the side, but ultimately chose to shoulder the blame.
"The entity that calls itself 'Invincible Beautiful Girl'βwhat its origin is remains inconclusive for now."
Director Li Guoan stood up and walked to the big screen. "Even if she truly is a high-dimensional life form, her intentions for descending to Earth are still unknown."
"I will report this directly to the highest decision-making body." Director Li Guoan turned to look at Chen You. "The Tiangong Space Station, the global radio telescope array, and all near-Earth orbit satellites have already been integrated into the Skynet system."
"As long as any abnormal spatial curvature fluctuations appear outside the atmosphere, we will receive a warning within 0.1 seconds."
Chen You lowered his arms, pulled over a chair, and sat back down.
"Then what do I need to do?" Chen You asked.
"Improve your strength." Director Li Guoan walked up to Chen You. "She admitted it herself: the database in the Source Realm does not contain the underlying code of the Cultivation System."
"Cultivation is a blind spot that she cannot parse."
Director Li Guoan patted Chen You on the shoulder.
"As long as your cultivation level is high enough and your power tier exceeds her data capacity limit, even if she truly descends, you will be able to punch her back to her hometown."
"You still have 300 billion in your card. Go, and improve your strength as quickly as possible."
Chen You nodded, opened the system interface, and exited the White Jade Capital territory.
A white light flashed, and he stood once again on the ruins of the collapsed Five Finger Mountain.
Chen You pulled the dark golden cyber merit wooden fish from his backpack and struck it again.
"Clang!"
A crisp impact sound echoed through the empty valley.
A layer of blue holographic projection screen appeared on the surface of the wooden fish.
"Ding! Recalculating route for you."
"Please adjust your direction and head due west. The total distance is 1,200 kilometers."
Chen You put away the wooden fish, and the yuhuang sword appeared out of thin air, hovering beneath his feet.
He leaped onto the flying sword, and the pure spiritual energy of his mid-Foundation Establishment Stage erupted from within him.
Air waves rolled out.
Chen You turned into a streak of light, shooting straight into the clouds.
In less than ten minutes.
A black mountain peak appeared ahead.
At the top of the mountain sat a cluster of dilapidated, magnificent buildings.
Large swathes of black mist shrouded the temple.
Chen You lowered his sword light and landed in front of the temple gate.
The two vermilion gates, wrapped in copper plating, had long since decayed.
A plaque hung above the gate, its inscription blurry and illegible.
Chen You walked up and kicked the gate open.
Wood splinters flew.
A thick, fishy stench rushed toward him.
Inside the Mahavira Hall, there were no Buddha statues.
On the lotus throne in the center sat a massive humanoid monster with its legs crossed.
The monster was over three meters tall and wore a tattered dark golden kasaya.
Its head was that of a massive weasel, with two long yellow eyebrows hanging down, dragging all the way to the ground.
A line of blood-red text floated above the monster's head.
[Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow] (mythological-grade lord)
[Level: 50]
[HP: 15,000,000]
"Where did this wild monkey come from, daring to trespass into my dojo?" Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow opened its eyes, its pupils flickering with a ghostly green light.
It stood up and reached behind its back to draw a gleaming golden short staff.
Chen You didn't speak. He immediately pulled up the quest panel to take a look.
Progress: 80/81.
This was the last one.
"Wild monkey?" Chen You sneered. "I'm here to send you to the Western Paradise."
He gripped his right hand in the air, and the yuhuang sword let out a crisp hum, falling into his palm.
Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow was furious.
It raised the short staff and struck the ground forcefully.
A circle of golden sound waves spread outward with it as the center.
The blue bricks on the ground shattered inch by inch.
Chen You stood where he was, unmoving.
The Nine Revolutions Primordial Chaos Art within him ran frantically, and pure Yang spiritual energy instantly covered his entire body, forming a layer of golden protective aura.
The sound waves collided with the protective aura, emitting a harsh screeching sound before dissipating into nothingness.
Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow was stunned.
"What kind of defensive skill is that?" Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow looked surprised.
"Guess." Chen You exerted force under his feet, stomping a deep pit into the ground.
He instantly vanished from where he stood.
The next second, Chen You appeared above Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow's head.
Heaven-Breaking Sword Technique β Startling Goose.
With a destructive momentum, the yuhuang sword slashed down from above.
Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow reacted extremely quickly.
It raised the short staff with both hands, blocking it above its head.
"Clang!"
A deafening metallic clashing sound rang out.
The lotus throne beneath Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow exploded instantly.
Its massive body was forced to one knee by the immense power.
"Impossible!" Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow roared. "I am a level 50 mythological-grade lord; how could your strength possibly suppress me?"
Chen You gripped the sword with both hands and continued to press down.
"Because I'm cheating." Chen You said in a flat tone.
Evil Venerable Yellow Eyebrow suddenly opened its mouth wide and spat out a tattered cloth bag.
The cloth bag grew in size against the wind, and a violent suction force turned into a vortex, completely enveloping Chen You.
The system notification sound rang in Chen You's ears.
[Warning: You have been locked onto by the mythological-grade item 'Heaven-Swallowing Bag'. You will be forcibly sucked into an alternate dimension, deducting 10% of your maximum HP per second."]
Chen You glanced at the continuously shaking cloth bag above his head.
"Deducting 10% of maximum HP per second? This thing is this fierce?!"
Come to think of it, it's been so long, and other than the yuhuang sword, he didn't have any other immortal treasures.
If he could get his hands on this thing, wouldn't that be wonderful!
The dilapidated Buddha statues, blue bricks, and beams inside the hall were torn apart by the violent suction, turning into powder and being swept into the giant cloth bag in mid-air.
Seeing that his feet were about to leave the ground, Chen You didn't have time to think and quickly retreated.
A wild wind howled, causing his moyuan star river robe to flap loudly.
No matter how hard Chen You exerted himself, his body found it difficult to move.
The red system warning box flashed frantically at the edge of his vision.
[Warning: You are within the capture range of the mythological-grade item 'Heaven-Swallowing Bag'!]
"The suction is quite strong!"
Chen You was startled.
