Chapter 1442 - 1361: Mutation
Under the Evergreen Technique of Yin Wood, Ye Guichen’s recovery ability is astonishing.
After regaining control of the Jiuyou Tower, Ye Guichen came up with an idea.
To lock the man in black inside the Jiuyou Tower.
However, it isn’t easy to lock the man in black inside it.
First of all, the distance is too great, it’s simply impossible.
Secondly, if the man in black is prepared, given the difference in distance between them, he might escape before any action is taken.
Therefore, Ye Guichen must achieve victory through surprise.
And the most basic element of surprise is to catch the opponent off guard.
Though Ye Guichen’s bodily strength now far surpasses that of ordinary people, it is likely still insufficient before the man in black.
If he engages in direct confrontation, without weapons, Ye Guichen would be played to death by the opponent.
However, pretending to attack is still feasible.
Ye Guichen suddenly strikes, the man in black has already misjudged Ye Guichen’s strength due to the previous three lightning techniques.
So, he must show Ye Guichen a lesson.
The man in black lands a punch that could flatten a mountain.
Ye Guichen certainly doesn’t dare to take it head-on.
Seeing the shadow of the fist coming down, Ye Guichen pushes his speed to the extreme and simultaneously uses the Airborne Technique, rushing to three steps away from the man in black in the blink of an eye.
"Hmm?"
The man in black misses his punch, and he is evidently puzzled.
However, the shadow of the fist falls on the ground, leveling a ten-mile radius around Hefeng Valley.
Those from Wan Jian Villa died on the spot, with no one escaping.
In contrast, Feng Wuxiu’s body undergoes some unknown mutation, and under such fierce bombardment, he is only slightly injured.
But due to the severe injuries from the man in black before, he remains unable to move.
"Jiuyou Tower, collect!"
After approaching the man in black, Ye Guichen shouted.
Jiuyou Tower suddenly appeared, directly enveloping both Ye Guichen and the man in black.
The man in black didn’t expect Ye Guichen would use this move.
His face suddenly changed and he slammed his palm towards Ye Guichen, wanting to kill him.
"Lock!"
Ye Guichen shouted again, countless iron chains instantly locked the man in black.
The man in black struggled.
But more chains kept extending, locking the man in black and rendering him immobile.
"Let go of me, you little bastard, let go of me!" The man in black screamed, his voice hoarse and frenzied.
Ye Guichen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Inside this Jiuyou Tower, I am the king, you don’t need to exhaust yourself with futile schemes."
Ye Guichen waved his hand.
A cage appeared out of thin air, covering the man in black.
This cage is incredibly sturdy, and even though the man in black’s cultivation is deep, he still cannot break free.
"You little bastard, let go of me! If you have any guts, let me go!"
The man in black continued to roar.
Ye Guichen’s face remained calm: "Senior, since you know about the Jiuyou Tower, you should know what the Jiuyou Tower is, right? Do you think you can escape?"
Upon hearing this, the man in black’s face became dark, and he quickly deflated: "Fine, I admit defeat. I never thought you not only have numerous methods but also know to use this Jiuyou Tower to lock people; fine, if you let me go today, I won’t kill you."
Ye Guichen sneered, as if hearing a joke: "I mean, senior, this doesn’t seem like the time for you to negotiate with me, right? Well, aren’t you going to tell me you still want to kill me?"
"You..." The man in black flushed with anger, his eyes bulging like copper bells glaring at Ye Guichen.
Then he laughed bitterly: "Fine, what do you want?"
"Throw the storage ring back to me." Ye Guichen pointed to the space in front of him.
The opponent is too strong. Although in the Jiuyou Tower it’s his territory, Ye Guichen doesn’t dare to risk contacting the man in black.
If the man in black seizes him and directly breaks his arm, it would be absolutely unworthy.
Seeing Ye Guichen still being vigilant at this time, the man in black gritted his teeth: "You let me out, and I’ll give you back the storage ring; otherwise, don’t even think about it!"
"Senior, are you foolish or am I? Hehe, at this time, I’ve managed to get you in here with great difficulty, why would I let you out? To let you kill me? Fine, since you are unwilling to return it to me, then we’ll play slowly. There are many things in this Jiuyou Tower that I haven’t had the chance to explore, today I’ll have a try."
Ye Guichen made a gesture.
The chains clanked, lifting the man in black’s four limbs directly into the air.
The man in black was extremely angry: "You, what do you intend to do?"
"I know you’re strong, but here, being strong doesn’t help." Ye Guichen sneered: "Also, looking at you, you’re not even alive, what connection do you have with the Holy Temple?"
"The Holy Temple?" The man in black looked at Ye Guichen in surprise: "You actually know about the Holy Temple? Hehe, it seems I underestimated you."
"I don’t want to hear nonsense, pull!" Ye Guichen glared, the four chains suddenly increased in strength.
A ripping sound was heard as one of the man in black’s arms was mercilessly torn off.
The man in black let out a horrified scream: "You little bastard, I come from Chaos Sea, how dare you treat me this way? If I ever get out, I will not spare you!"
Yet, while speaking, the man in black’s arm surprisingly grew back by itself.
Seeing this, Ye Guichen understood quite well.
This man in black is not only not alive but also can’t be killed by ordinary means.
However, Ye Guichen didn’t plan to kill him.
It’s not easy to recruit such a strong figure; why not play with him slowly and let him serve me? Wouldn’t it be a waste otherwise?
"At a time like this, still boasting? Then let’s play slowly!" Ye Guichen once again pulled the black-clad man’s arm with the chain and forcibly tore off the hand wearing the storage ring.
Then, he took off the storage ring.
Besides Ye Guichen’s, the black-clad man’s storage ring had one that belonged to himself.
Ye Guichen tried to see what was inside.
Unfortunately, no matter how Ye Guichen tried, he couldn’t open that storage ring.
Presumably, the gap in cultivation is too large. For now, Ye Guichen can’t open the black-clad man’s storage ring.
"Alright, think carefully about your situation for now. When you’ve sorted it out, remember to call me!" Ye Guichen took back his own storage ring and didn’t say much more.
The time spent here has been quite long, and Ye Guichen didn’t plan to waste any more.
Anyway, locking the black-clad man in Jiuyou Tower means he can’t escape; they’ll have enough time to play slowly later.
With a thought, Ye Guichen left Jiuyou Tower and then put it away.
Looking at the scene of chaos, his mood was extremely complicated.
The gap in strength is too significant.
Ye Guichen finally understood what it means when there is always someone stronger.
Moreover, he grasped some words during the conversation.
This black-clad man actually came from Chaos Sea.
Could it be that Chaos Sea is home to many powerful experts?
Why has no one ever talked about it among the people living here?
With many questions in his mind, Ye Guichen couldn’t dwell on it too much now.
He checked the storage ring.
His belongings were all intact.
Fortunately, the black-clad man was too arrogant not to take out that Ghost Pill, or all his efforts might have been in vain.
With this Ghost Pill, he thought about swallowing it when given the chance and seeing what transformation he might undergo.
However, Ye Guichen didn’t have the guts to swallow it now.
Given that this thing is coveted by even a black-clad man who is likely a Divinity Transformation Realm’s expert, swallowing it rashly might lead to death a hundred times over.
While lost in thought, Ye Guichen’s gaze fell on Feng Wuxiu.
Feng Wuxiu stared blankly at Ye Guichen, with complex emotions in his eyes.
"How are you feeling?" Ye Guichen approached Feng Wuxiu and helped him up.
But it was no use; Feng Wuxiu’s limbs had become unusually rigid.
He couldn’t even stand properly.
"Mr. Ye, are you... are you alright? Where did that guy go?" Feng Wuxiu felt bewildered that Ye Guichen could survive and the powerful man had disappeared.
The opponent’s strength was far beyond imagination.
Feng Wuxiu felt that if the opponent wished, he could easily wipe out Wan Jian Villa with a flick of his hand.
Such a formidable person, beyond reckoning.
Ye Guichen chuckled and patted Feng Wuxiu’s shoulder: "Now we’re safe. If you want to follow me, try to move your body. If you can walk, walk. If not, I can support you."
Feng Wuxiu quickly and solemnly replied, "Mr. Ye, I want to follow you."
"Good!" Ye Guichen didn’t say much more.
The words of the black-clad man made Ye Guichen curious about Feng Wuxiu as well.
His body surely underwent a mutation.
The black-clad man mentioned Feng Wuxiu as an excellent material for making puppets.
Although he didn’t understand yet, Ye Guichen felt that Feng Wuxiu would inevitably become a huge support in the future.
Hence, since he’s willing to follow, he wouldn’t miss the chance.
Upon examining Feng Wuxiu’s body again, Ye Guichen discovered a problem.
Feng Wuxiu’s body became unusually hard, and this hardness seemed to intensify with time.
Moreover, this hardness wasn’t fragile; it was like that of a Body Refining Master.
In other words, Feng Wuxiu’s body was undergoing transformation.
Especially when he saw Feng Wuxiu’s arm, Ye Guichen was surprised to find new flesh growing from Feng Wuxiu’s severed arm, suggesting that it wouldn’t be long before a new arm emerged.
This was much more impressive than the Yimu Changqing Technique.
The Yimu Changqing Technique couldn’t yet fully regenerate an arm, but if Feng Wuxiu’s arm could grow back, combined with the Yimu Changqing Technique, it might elevate the technique further.
Recalling those two monsters from before, Ye Guichen increasingly felt those monsters were treasures that must be well-utilized.
Presently, Ye Guichen knows little.
But as long as he opens the mouth of the black-clad man, Ye Guichen believes he will unlock an entirely new world.
Half a day later, Feng Wuxiu finally managed to move.
Though still stiff, jumping like a zombie, he wasn’t slow at all.
Seeing there was nothing worth staying for here, Ye Guichen took Feng Wuxiu and left Hefeng Valley, chasing after the hundred thousand troops.
Shortly after Ye Guichen and Feng Wuxiu left, the land where Yin Ghost Sect once stood erupted suddenly, and a person charged forth clad in Evil Qi.
His eyes were bloodshot, and his veins bulged as if they would burst.
"Unexpectedly, after being wounded by that thing, my body underwent such a mutation. Haha, given more time, who will contest me under the heavens?"
This person was none other than Dugu Yue, previously harmed by the monster.
His heart was now filled with bloodthirsty fervor.
Licking his lips, Dugu Yue howled skyward, emitting a roar akin to a beast.
