Chapter 214: You Big Fool
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There was a period of time during the ancient era when there were many experts with terrifying strength. Due to the abundant spiritual energy in that era, even the wildflowers and weeds on the roadside could become quite terrible monsters.
The number of experts in that era was as many as the hair on an ox.
To put it bluntly, if one’s strength had not reached the Dao realm, one would be embarrassed to go out and greet others.
Dao realm cultivators could be found everywhere, and there were many who had reached the Dao essence realm.
As for why these experts had all fallen in a single battle, according to Long Fengyun’s explanation, a strange ocean had suddenly appeared, and a terrifying monster had been nurtured within that ocean.
This monster took pleasure in devouring experts, and in the span of a hundred years, it slaughtered all of these experts!
At that time, Yuchi did not put stock in this explanation, only using it as a reference.
However, he had now confirmed this matter with Yinguan Luoying.
She mentioned that an ocean had appeared at the end of the world, and something powerful seemed to be brewing in the ocean.
She could predict her own death, so she used a spell in advance to put herself into a state of suspended animation.
Although she was in a state of feigned death, she destroyed her fake body in order to make the whole thing believable. She even severely damaged her real body in order to escape the detection of this monster.
Even so, she had failed to completely deceive the other party, and ended up being thrown into the infinite imprisonment cycle of the past.
Thus, Yinguan Luoying was different from other ancient beings. She was stuck in the past with a broken but living body.
As for what exactly happened back then, she really was not too sure, as she had made all of these preparations in advance.
All she knew was that a catastrophe had befallen their era, one that no one could resist.
After all, so many experts in the past could grow up. It was not difficult to imagine that there was an even more terrifying thing hidden in the sea.
The heavenly Dao was fair in a certain sense.
And all of these things were told to Yuchi by the silver coffin falling cherry.
Yu Shengyun stood beside Yuchi and listened to Yinguan Luoying’s words. It was hard for her to imagine how such a terrifying era had been erased so suddenly.
As the Saintess, she had studied many things about the myriad races and the history of this world.
However, she had never heard any of this.
‘There have to be secrets hidden about the ancient era.’
‘Could it be that this is related to his goal?’
Yu Shengyun looked at Yuchi and thought to herself.
…
By the lake.
Yuchi, on the other hand, was thinking about a very simple matter.
Since so many ancient experts had been exterminated, was the monster that had killed them all still alive?
This was a rather serious question.
When he thought about it, he was a little excited and even trembled a little.
Judging from the strength of this monster, there was no reason for it to simply disappear from the river of history because of the passage of time. Something that powerful would definitely have a long lifespan, and would likely even be able to defy fate.
So where was this monster?
Was it still in the mysterious ocean?
Why did it choose to go into hiding after killing all of those experts?
There were so many questions.
…
On the surface of the lake, as her broken body slowly recovered, Yinguan Luoying looked at the man in front of her.
This man’s strength was quite terrifying. If he had not reached the Dao essence realm, her attempt at escape would likely have been successful.
This was not the ancient era, and the density of spiritual energy in the world had been greatly weakened.
How could there be such an expert in this situation?
Since that was the case, she had to come up with a plan.
She suddenly opened her mouth and said to Yuchi, “My Lord, didn’t you want to see what was in my coffin? Since I’ve submitted to you, it’s only natural for me to show you what’s in my coffin.”
Yuchi had said that he was not a good person, which was an odd thing to say.
However, no matter what, she would never believe a stranger.
After Yuchi nodded, she maintained a respectful and humble attitude. She placed her coffin in front of Yuchi and slowly opened it under Yuchi’s signal.
Then…
A fierce red light drilled into Yuchi’s sea of consciousness. Sure enough, Yuchi’s guess was correct. This three-meter-tall body was just a puppet. The real Yinguan Luoying had been hidden in this silver coffin.
Yu Shengyun immediately looked at Yuchi nervously, “What’s wrong with her?”
Yuchi looked at the skeleton that had been burned beyond recognition and sighed silently. “She’s in my sea of consciousness.”
“Oh…”
Yu Shengyun was not worried.
She had seen what was inside Yuchi’s sea of consciousness, which was full of demons and monsters. Yinguan Luoying’s act of entering Yuchi’s sea of consciousness was akin to committing suicide.
Yuchi was also at a loss. Had she acted that way because her desire to survive was too strong?
The whole ploy had been pretty obvious. Yuchi had simply not bothered to act.
Forget it.
Yuchi looked at Yu Shengyun and said, “What delicious food did you make?” Let’s go in and take a look.”
Yu Shengyun immediately nodded.
She obediently stood by Yuchi’s side and, as she walked toward the wooden house with Yuchi, she turned her head to look at Yinguan Luoying’s body, which was now a soulless puppet.
“What about her?”
“Well, it’s pretty straightforward…”
Yuchi casually destroyed the body.
“She obviously doesn’t need this body anymore. As for her soul, it’s temporarily trapped in my sea of consciousness. Perhaps she’ll have a few words with Medusa. After all, they’re both beings from the ancient era.”
Yu Shengyun was stunned.
Her beautiful eyes fell on Yuchi in disbelief. “Husband, are you trying to trap her in your sea of consciousness?”
Yuchi caressed her face.
“Are you worried that I’ll be attacked?”
“Don’t worry. Since I dared to do this, I’m confident in my ability to contain her.”
Yu Shengyun blushed.
“That wasn’t the case. I was just worried that Yinguan Luoying would be frightened by what is in your sea of consciousness.”
Then, it was Yuchi’s turn to be momentarily stunned.
“Is that so?”
“After all, I’ve entered your sea of consciousness before.”
“It’s really not a place that ordinary people should enter.”
“I wonder how she is feeling. Is she panicking?”
Speaking up to this point, Yu Shengyun also laughed heartlessly and threw herself into Yuchi’s arms.
She wanted to laugh, but she also felt sympathy.
‘Why didn’t you choose my sea of consciousness instead?’
‘You big fool.’
Hahaha!
