Chapter 329: Splashing onto the Imperial Daughter's Feet
Zhang Chen looked at the unconscious Xie Lingyun and considered two ways to resolve the Basilisk's aura within her soul. The first method was to use the Water of the Yellow Springs to cleanse Xie Lingyun's soul. The Water of the Yellow Springs inherently possessed the effect of cleansing souls. To expel the Basilisk's aura from Xie Lingyun's soul, he only needed to slowly refine it with the Water of the Yellow Springs.
The second method was for him to use his mouthparts to absorb the mysterious aura from Xie Lingyun's soul. This method was the simplest, but the mysterious aura had already permeated Xie Lingyun's soul. He was afraid he wouldn't be able to control the intensity. If he accidentally absorbed and devoured Xie Lingyun's three souls and seven spirits, it would be a major problem.
After analyzing, Zhang Chen decided to use the Water of the Yellow Springs to cleanse Xie Lingyun's soul. So, he took out the Water of the Yellow Springs and used his water control technique to guide the Water of the Yellow Springs into Xie Lingyun's mouth and nose, continuously cleansing Xie Lingyun's soul.
With the repeated scouring of the Water of the Yellow Springs, the Basilisk's aura gradually faded, and at this time, Xie Lingyun's soul became more and more refined under the scouring of the Water of the Yellow Springs.
Normally, Xie Lingyun would be reluctant to use so much Water of the Yellow Springs, and she wouldn't dare to use the Water of the Yellow Springs so recklessly to scour her soul.
The Water of the Yellow Springs was a good thing, which could be used to purify the soul and wash away impurities, but it also had great drawbacks. A little carelessness and excessive use would inevitably damage one's own soul. In mild cases, one would lose memory; in severe cases, the soul would turn into blank paper, lose oneself, and become a blank soul, which could directly go to reincarnation.
It was only because Zhang Chen mastered the water control technique and had meticulous control over the Water of the Yellow Springs that he had the courage to act in this way.
Zhang Chen cleansed Xie Lingyun's soul for a day and a night before completely washing away the Basilisk's aura. Only then did Xie Lingyun wake up faintly in a daze: "What's wrong with me?"
"You were bewitched by the Basilisk and almost became its food. Fortunately, I passed by there and rescued you," Zhang Chen said when he saw Xie Lingyun wake up.
Upon hearing this, Xie Lingyun's mind flashed back to the previous memories, and she recalled her inexplicable slaughter, and her face turned pale: "It was really dangerous, I was almost chopped to death."
"What's going on with the Basilisk you're talking about?" Xie Lingyun asked in confusion.
Zhang Chen narrated how the Basilisk bewitched people's minds, how it controlled people to slaughter each other, and became its nourishment. In particular, he emphasized the Basilisk's eggs, which shocked Xie Lingyun: "According to you, what those people swallowed was not a strange fruit at all, but the Basilisk's eggs? Will those people be taken over by the Basilisk in the future and become the Basilisk's incarnation?"
"That's right, that's exactly the case," Zhang Chen nodded affirmatively.
Xie Lingyun gasped when she heard this, and secretly rejoiced in her heart that she met Zhang Chen, otherwise she would have been planted. Even if she didn't die under the knives of the guards around her, she would die a unnatural death after swallowing the snake eggs, becoming the Basilisk's parasite.
Just as Xie Lingyun was amazed, a piercing pain suddenly came, and Xie Lingyun looked at the wound on her body: "Good fellow, I almost died this time."
"What are your plans next, Sister?" Zhang Chen looked at Xie Lingyun.
Xie Lingyun endured the pain, and her eyes looked at Zhang Chen. She wanted to be with Zhang Chen, but thinking that she was injured now, she would definitely be a burden to Zhang Chen, so she could only helplessly say:
"Although this spiritual world is full of good fortune, it is too dangerous. I'd better go out early and then spend money to hire Jianghu experts to come in and explore."
She was originally a noble, so why take risks?
The reason why she came in was only because she was attracted by the apricots that could control the power of water and fire. Now that she knew the truth, of course, there was no need to get closer.
Hiring Jianghu experts to work for herself, she only needed to sit back and enjoy the benefits, which was what nobles should do.
There has never been a shortage of ruthless people in the world who bet their lives for a chance.
"This place is not far from the exit, Sister, just go by yourself. Although you have injuries on your body, it does not affect your actions. Don't worry, if there are any good treasures in this spiritual world, I will definitely remember you," Zhang Chen comforted Xie Lingyun.
"Do you still want to stay here?" Xie Lingyun heard Zhang Chen's words and analyzed that he still wanted to continue exploring here, and couldn't help but lose her color.
"There are things in this spiritual world that I have to take," Zhang Chen replied.
The Mighty Warrior Mountain Moving Technique was the prerequisite technique of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique, and he must successfully cultivate it. Moreover, the biggest drawback for him was the lack of offensive methods, and this was the best time for him to obtain offensive methods.
As long as he practiced the Mighty Warrior Mountain Moving Technique, he would no longer lack the means to protect the Dao before he advanced to the Fruit Realm.
As for the creation and strange objects in the spiritual world, Zhang Chen was not in a hurry to explore. His spiritual consciousness could descend into the spiritual world at any time. To him, this was just his back garden, and there would be opportunities to explore it in the future.
Xie Lingyun heard the words and carefully told Zhang Chen a few more words, and then disappeared into the jungle with a limp.
Although Xie Lingyun's body was injured, he had checked nearby and there was no danger, so he was not worried about Xie Lingyun's safety.
Looking at Xie Lingyun's leaving back, Zhang Chen summoned the Great Free Heavenly Demon: "Which direction should we go?"
If you want to go to the core of the first heaven in the spiritual world, the most important thing is to confirm the direction, don't go blindly.
The Great Free Heavenly Demon sensed slightly, and pointed his fingers to the distance: "That direction is exactly 108,000 miles away from here. If you travel a thousand miles a day, you will probably arrive in a hundred days."
It was not difficult for Zhang Chen to travel a thousand miles a day. Zhang Chen turned into a vampire bat and flapped his wings and flew away, soaring between the mountains and rivers, flying low-key all the way.
It was just that Zhang Chen had not flown out three hundred miles before he had to stop, because he knew that his trouble was coming.
"Woof ~"
A dog bark shook the world, and from afar, I saw a big black dog riding on a figure on the top of a big mountain, standing on the top of the mountain and roaring to the sky.
"Damn it! That damned big black dog is coming!" Zhang Chen's eyesight was very good at this time when he turned into a vampire bat, especially when he saw the big black dog actually riding on a figure, he secretly said in his heart: "Could it be that the master of the big black dog is holding the big black dog to come to him?"
The next moment, Zhang Chen quickly rushed into the forest, turned into a stream of water, and was about to drill into the soil.
This big black dog was really terrifying and could never be offended.
In the distance, the big black dog was riding on Zhou Chuan's body, with a pair of paws on Zhou Chuan's shoulders, standing on Zhou Chuan's shoulders, looking at Zhang Chen's trail and roaring excitedly, he finally caught the little thief.
And Zhou Chuan, who was under the big black dog, had a bitter face at this time.
Not only was he caught by this utterly immoral black dog, but the dog was also toying with him in every possible way, even using him as a mount and riding him on its shoulders. He, the dignified number one martial artist of the Great Victory Dynasty, had completely lost face.
“Woof~”
Seeing that Zhang Chen wanted to escape, the black dog quickly controlled Zhou Chuan, turning into a streak of light. In the blink of an eye, it had already caught up to where Zhang Chen landed. Then, the black dog sniffed the air with its nose, its gaze fixed on the ground, a thoughtful look in its eyes: “This two-legged beast has quite a few tricks up its sleeve, actually knowing the art of transformation. It’s a pity it’s not as good as its master.”
Having been by its master’s side for many years, what kind of transformation techniques hadn't it seen? That transformation art was its master's signature skill, and it had some understanding of it, naturally knowing how to restrain it.
Although Zhang Chen transformed into water to escape, the aura marked by the black dog was imprinted in his soul. No matter how he transformed, he couldn't escape the black dog's control.
“Kid, can you escape?” The black dog sneered. The next moment, its dog paw pressed down on the earth, and the earth collapsed, mountains crumbled, and the land was in chaos. The water flow that Zhang Chen had transformed into was about to be torn apart and scattered by the chaotic rocks, scaring him into quickly drilling out of the ground and transforming into a vampire bat, flapping his wings and flying away among the mountains.
Seeing this scene, the black dog sneered again, but it wasn't in a hurry to chase. It had been too lonely for tens of thousands of years, and it was good to play with this little thing.
The black dog rode Zhou Chuan, chasing after Zhang Chen all the way. Although it was said that Zhou Chuan was the mount, in reality, the black dog was using its divine powers to carry Zhou Chuan and fly in pursuit.
Sometimes, the black dog would suddenly accelerate, catching up to Zhang Chen, and then with a swipe of its dog paw, it would directly flip Zhang Chen over, then let Zhang Chen stabilize himself and continue to flee. Or it would simply bare its teeth and snarl behind him, chasing within a foot of Zhang Chen, threatening to bite, scaring Zhang Chen's wings to flap until they smoked.
Zhang Chen flew in front, the black dog chased behind. Zhang Chen, hearing the dog's barking close behind him, knew that this black dog bastard was deliberately playing with him.
This dog thing was deliberately toying with people, utterly immoral, but Zhang Chen had no choice but to run among the mountains.
He was now somewhat regretful. If he had known that he would have to enter the spiritual world with his physical body, he shouldn't have peed on the black dog's head in the first place.
After Zhang Chen passed through a narrow gap in the mountains, with a turn, he left the black dog a hundred miles behind. Then, the Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation appeared in his hand, and he directly set up the formation.
Of course, he knew that the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation couldn't do anything to the black dog. The black dog only needed to move mountains and overturn seas outside the formation to break the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation. But he never intended to use the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation to block the opponent. He only wanted to use the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation to conceal his true form for a single breath, to buy himself some time to use his skills, to see if his Soul-Snatching and Soul-Seizing could mark the opponent.
Zhang Chen's true form stood within the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, his eyes watching the approaching black dog. The next moment, he activated his skill: “Soul-Snatching and Soul-Seizing skill activated.”
[Target's lifespan has not reached its limit, Soul-Snatching is not possible!]
Seeing the information transmitted from his Soul-Snatching and Soul-Seizing skill, Zhang Chen felt a chill in his heart, but he didn't move. Instead, he stood quietly within the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, praying that the black dog opposite him wouldn't recognize the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation and would rush in without thinking.
In fact, Zhang Chen was disappointed again. He saw the black dog rush to the front of the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, its eyes looking at the vast aura soaring into the sky, and then looking at the formation. It stopped in front of the formation, somewhat lost in thought, and actually spoke human words at this moment: “Nine Bends Yellow River Formation! ! ! How is this possible! How could the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation appear here?”
He was too familiar with this Nine Bends Yellow River Formation. Back then, he and his master had personally walked through the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, so of course he knew the power of the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation.
Although the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation in front of him was only a miniature version, less than one ten-thousandth of the one he had seen back then, the appearance of the Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation here was already a shocking thing.
“Let me see what’s hidden within this Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation.” The black dog circled around the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, and the next moment, it directly used its divine powers to reverse the mountains underground, breaking the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation.
When the black dog stopped and called out the origin of the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, Zhang Chen knew that his idea of using the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation to trap and kill this evil dog had failed. So, he directly transformed into a vampire bat, took away the Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation, and took the opportunity to leave.
“Ant, stop! Explain the origin of the Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation, and I'll spare your life!”
Seeing Zhang Chen rush out from within the Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation, the black dog immediately knew that the Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation was related to Zhang Chen. So, without saying a word, it chased after him. This time, the black dog no longer played with Zhang Chen. The information represented by the Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation was too important to him. So, without saying a word, it directly controlled Zhou Chuan and flew above Zhang Chen, matching Zhang Chen's speed, and slowly asked: “Little fellow, where did that Nine Bends Yellow River Talisman Formation come from? Quickly tell the truth!”
Zhang Chen was too lazy to pay attention to the black dog, and directly ran wildly, shuttling through the forest.
The black dog looked at the running Zhang Chen, and a wicked interest suddenly rose in its heart. Standing on Zhou Chuan's head, it directly peed on Zhang Chen below: “This old ancestor will take revenge first!”
“Damn, you beast, you don't have any martial ethics!”
Zhang Chen's ultrasonic waves sensed the urine falling from the sky, and he was shocked to run around everywhere, constantly zigzagging back and forth to escape. But the urine seemed to be automatically homing in,盯住his figure, chasing closely behind.
Seeing the urine getting closer and closer to him, Zhang Chen didn't want to be covered in dog urine. Just as he was panicking, suddenly the void in front of him twisted, and a figure appeared out of nowhere, blocking Zhang Chen's path. Zhang Chen's ultrasonic detection couldn't dodge in time, and he directly crashed into it.
The Imperial Daughter locked onto Zhang Chen and crossed space to arrive. Before she could figure out the situation, she felt an object hit her ankle, and then a little bit of light yellow liquid, like a drizzle, poured onto her shoes and the hem of her skirt.
The Imperial Daughter looked at the light yellow liquid, then looked at Zhang Chen, who had transformed into a vampire bat, and the black dog chasing after him, peeing. Her face suddenly turned black.
With her power, of course, she could see that the vampire bat in front of her was Zhang Chen.
But what was going on with the black dog riding on a person and standing upright while peeing?
