Eternal vanity
Chapter 23
White Dust's mind was as nimble as nine revolutions, quickly coming up with an ingenious plan.
"I can see that you're confident. You don't need me anymore, right?" Yun Qingxiao crossed his arms and said with a smile.
With a spinning kick, Bai Chen sent an exotic beast that was about to approach him flying. He panted heavily, "En, but we still have to lure this Ye Jin away."
"No problem. Leave it to me."
After so many days, the two of them had become more and more familiar with each other. Even the twins could not catch up to their tacit understanding.
Bai Chen did not expect Yun Qingxiao to be so simple and crude. He directly blasted out a powerful Divine Sense Qi wave and sent Ye Jin, who was fighting against the exotic beast, flying without a trace.
"Ah —"
Ye Jin's figure slowly shrank in the air until it disappeared.
Bai Chen cursed in his heart. He was too strong!
Yun Qingxiao looked calm. "Don't just stand there. Do you want to be eaten by the exotic beast until not even your bones are left?
You can't even beat a wild beast now. You still relied on the sword energy from your previous life to kill Zong Heng. Run, little shrimp! "
Bai Chen rolled his eyes. You're still in the mood to make sarcastic remarks at a time like this?
Without another word, he ran away.
He could take Ye Jin away, but he could not take this exotic beast away!
His eyes were shining, and he completely forgot about the extreme fatigue of his body. He looked at the Zhou Clan's camp not far away as if he was looking at a treasure.
"Wahahaha … Zhou Clan, I'm coming!"
High up in the sky, two graceful figures, one sitting and one standing, quietly watched Bai Chen running wildly on the ground.
The sitting figure smiled and spoke. Her voice was as pleasant as a silver bell. "Sister, is it 'it'?"
The figure standing there smiled faintly, but his eyes didn't move. He spoke calmly, his celestial aura lingering around him, like an otherworldly fairy from the Nine Heavens, neither happy nor sad. "En, it's him. Such a tyrannical aura, it can't be anyone else."
The seated figure pouted, looking extremely cute. "What's wrong? You still haven't found Sister Mo Xie?
The host chosen this time is a little weak. "
The woman's eyelids drooped slightly, her long eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings. "How could it give up on its long-cherished wish of three thousand years? What really surprised me was that brat. I couldn't see through him."
He raised his hand and pointed at Bai Chen, who was fighting hard on the ground.
The person who was sitting down stood up and glanced around before curling his lips in disdain.
"Tsk, even weaker than the previous one."
"His cultivation is indeed a little low, but look, this person is still cautiously observing the aura fluctuations around him while running at full speed, perfectly dodging the mystic beast's innate skill.
"Not to mention the Divine Sense power that far surpasses that of ordinary people at this level of cultivation, just the astuteness, maturity, and calmness of the mind is enough to surpass the former."
"Hmph!
There was nothing that couldn't be solved with strength!
What's the use of wisdom? "
“.....”
The fairy's beautiful eyes moved as she looked at her helplessly. She shook her head and continued to watch.
At the Zhou Clan's residence.
"The Fourth Zhou, why are you playing chess?" The two guards were sitting idly and playing chess when one of them shouted in dissatisfaction.
"Which eye of yours saw me playing chess?!
I think you're just looking for trouble! "The other person also argued.
"You …"
"The Fourth … That, that … what is that …" The guard seemed to have seen something terrifying. His face was ferocious and horrified.
The other guard was disdainful. "Old Fifth Zhao, this is your new move, isn't it? Do you take me for a f * cking fool …"
"Awooo — Awooo —"
Before he finished speaking, shrill wolf howls mixed with all kinds of earth-shattering noises and loud noises like flying sand and stones were heard.
The Fourth Zhou was stunned on the spot. He looked at Old Fifth Zhao's horrified and ferocious expression and slowly turned around.
The sky was filled with dark clouds. Dark purple lightning flickered faintly and made ear-piercing sounds. Violent tremors came from afar. The cries, roars, and running of various beasts entered their ears. It was so loud that it hurt their ears.
Beast Tide … "The Fourth Zhou was dumbfounded. He seemed to be shocked by this magnificent scene.
Old Fifth Zhao was the first to come to his senses. He ran toward the inner valley.
"What are you waiting for?!
Quick, inform the leader! "
At this time, Bai Chen had already taken care of hundreds of yellow-rank beasts with Yun Qingxiao's help. He disappeared from the Beast Tide and hid in a huge tree, motionless.
"Phew — I finally did it …" Bai Chen wiped his sweat. He looked exhausted. He had really reached his limit.
Yun Qingxiao was also trying his best to recover his expended Divine Sense. In order to kill those high-rank yellow-rank beasts, he had expended much of his Divine Sense.
"You should be glad that you've sent Ye Jin away. Otherwise, you would've attracted even more high-rank beasts." Yun Qingxiao's handsome face turned slightly. His eyes were like torches.
Bai Chen paused for a moment. He realized that his Dantian's Origin Power was almost depleted. He heaved a long sigh. This was truly a narrow escape!
He stood up and looked at the Zhou Tribe's encampment that was flooded by the Beast Tide.
"The show's about to begin …" Bai Chen was slightly stunned.
"Quick!
Over there! "
"Oh no!
Protect the young master … Ah — "
"Ahhhhhh — Damned beast!
I'll fight you to the death — "
.....
Cries, shouts, and sounds of fighting rose and fell. Wherever his gaze landed, there was a rain of blood. The ground was dyed red. In the sky, the burning clouds illuminated the mountain ridges that were strewn with corpses. It was a tragic and terrifying sight.
"Old Second!
Old Second!
Old Second, don't scare me. What's wrong with you … "
"Don't … Don't come over!"
"Mother … I've let you down …"
Yun Qingxiao's expression was solemn. He looked at the tragic scenes and muttered, "Bai Chen … Is this what you want … Lives in misery and death, corpses everywhere."
“.....”
"Hmm?"
Yun Qingxiao suddenly realized that something was amiss. At this moment, Bai Chen was extremely strange. He stood still on the tree branch, but upon closer inspection, he was trembling slightly. He did not say a word, and black Qi swirled around his body.
"Hahahahaha —" Suddenly, Bai Chen burst into laughter. His voice was hoarse, and there was none of his usual calmness and indifference. "Go to hell … All of you, go to hell …"
"I'm so happy!
Hahaha, all those who bully me, go to hell!
Hahaha — "
In his sea of consciousness, a tiny wisp of black spread. With a swift and violent momentum, it covered half of his sea of consciousness and turned it black. Its aura was cold and violent.
"Oh no!
Inner Demon!
How can there be an Inner Demon?! "
Yun Qingxiao was terrified. He instantly released his powerful Divine Sense and forcibly suppressed the spread of the black.
"Damn it … What's going on!"
Yun Qingxiao resisted the Inner Demon's invasion of Bai Chen's sea of consciousness with all his might. However, he suddenly realized that Bai Chen's body was moving uncontrollably. He fell off the tree, but he seemed to feel no pain. He stood up numbly and walked straight in a certain direction.
Soul-devouring Parasitic Poison!
The Inner Demon's violent eruption gave this long-hidden Soul-devouring Parasitic Poison an opportunity. It instantly sealed Bai Chen's six senses, and he was at the mercy of others.
"Bai Chen!
Can you hear me?!
Stop it! "
Yun Qingxiao, who was completely unable to free himself, even used his Divine Sense to attack Bai Chen. However, Bai Chen remained unmoved. He walked step by step, and no one knew where he was going.
The black took advantage of Yun Qingxiao's distraction and suddenly spread a little more. Yun Qingxiao brazenly blocked it, and the spiritual body formed by his Divine Sense suddenly faded a little.
'B * stard!'
Yun Qingxiao cursed in his heart. He had no time to care about Bai Chen, who was controlled by the parasitic poison. If he allowed the Inner Demon to completely occupy Bai Chen's sea of consciousness, who knew what would happen?
He was fully prepared to face the first tribulation of the Heavenly Dao. However, it was already so difficult at the beginning. Could it be that the heavens were so unfair to him?!
'F * ck your mother!'
Bai Chen walked forward step by step. At this time, the mutated beasts were all gathered at the Zhou Consortium's base. A few of them knocked Bai Chen's body off balance, but they did not attack him. This was extremely strange.
A mutated beast with a sharp horn slashed Bai Chen's sleeve. Zhou Jianghao's storage pouch was also carried to the Zhou Consortium's base.
None of this was noticed by anyone.
After walking for an unknown period of time, he finally stopped.
In front of him was …
A cliff!
At the same time, in the Zhou Consortium's base.
A black-robed figure appeared high in the sky. He pointed the sword in his hand downward and muttered.
"Boundless Rain of Swords."
In an instant, a gear pattern flashed under each mutated beast. The ground cracked inch by inch, producing an ear-piercing and loud sound.
Whoosh!
A huge sword of light that appeared out of nowhere burst forth violently from where the black-robed figure's sword was pointing!
Suddenly, the sky was filled with blood, and the surroundings became incomparably silent. Even the surviving Family Zhou members were silent, as if they were frightened by this wave of attacks.
Looking at those ferocious mutated beasts, each of them had a huge sword of origin power stabbed into their bodies, dripping with blood.
The black-robed figure floated down and stood among the crowd. He was like a god being worshipped. Some of the weaker ones were even scared to the point of peeing their pants.
The black-robed figure frowned and turned his gaze to the Family Zhou soldier who had peed his pants. He said indifferently, "How can such cowardice bring glory to my Family Zhou!
Death is not to be regretted! "After saying that, he raised his hand. The soldier did not even have time to scream before he turned into ashes and scattered everywhere.
Everyone kept quiet out of fear, and no one dared to say a word.
The leader of Family Zhou stepped forward and bowed respectfully. He was stifled by the black-robed figure's aura. "My Lord."
The black-robed figure waved his hand impatiently, as if he was already tired of this conventional etiquette.
He extended his hand, and the storage bag hanging on the mutated beast's horn in the distance instantly flew into his palm.
The leader of Family Zhou was stunned. "This is … Ah!
Young Master's storage bag!
Could it be … Young Master has already … "
The black-robed figure's deep eyes stared at that person. After a while, he looked away. "That's right. That kid Zhou Jianghao's divine sense brand has been extinguished. The new divine sense aura belongs to someone called Yun Qingxiao."
This black-robed figure's divine sense was so sharp!
Just a trace of aura was enough to instantly detect Bai Chen.
"Bastard!" The people of Family Zhou were furious. They wanted to tear this Yun Qingxiao into pieces!
