Chapter 153: The Jade Bottle Containing Weak Waters
Chapter 153: The Jade Bottle Containing Weak Waters
Across the vast and boundless ocean, hundred-zhang giant waves rolled continuously.
The underworld emperor bell, like a massive mountain, struck continuously against the dragon's body.
Driven by blood essence, the surface of the underworld emperor bell shone brilliantly, with countless complex and obscure patterns blooming.
A resonant hum, like a great bronze bell, echoed through the clouds.
"Waa!"
Blood sprayed from Su Youyu's mouth in large quantities.
In her eyes, there was nothing but hatred.
She had already been blinded by fury.
She was fighting for her life!
She, who was usually timid and afraid of death, was risking her life to fight head-on against a Saint Realm dragon!
"Return my Senior Brother's life! You evil dragon, return my Senior Brother's life!"
Su Youyu drove the underworld emperor bell, continuously using its great power to strike hard against the dragon.
Even the dragon's tough scales were smashed to pieces, its flesh a bloody mess.
In pain, the Saint Realm dragon rolled amidst the giant waves, trying to escape into the depths of the water to avoid the pursuit of the underworld emperor bell.
However, the strength of the underworld emperor bell was such that even the surface of the sea was cracking open.
Exhausting the ten-thousand-zhang deep seabed, there was no place for the dragon to hide!
"Die!"
Su Youyu, who usually couldn't bear to waste even the blood leaking from the corner of her mouth, was now spitting out blood essence by the liter.
Her complexion was as pale as wax paper, and her beautiful black hair began to turn white.
From the underworld emperor bell, a'Suppress' character surged, carrying the might of heaven and earth, pressing down upon the dragon's head.
"Roar~"
The dragon was enraged. Its tail whipped out, shattering space, and struck the underworld emperor bell head-on.
Boom—
Accompanied by a deafening roar, the waves within a hundred-mile radius shattered instantly, briefly forming a vacuum zone.
Above the sea, a large amount of white mist steamed up.
The underworld emperor bell was sent flying back, exhausted. Su Youyu suffered the backlash as well, vomiting blood, her aura becoming increasingly withered.
"Damned human, you have angered me!"
The bloodied dragon soared into the sky, its massive head hanging down.
Staring at the weak Su Youyu, who looked like an ant before it, it said with lingering fear, "You have exceeded my expectations. A mere Heavenly Human Realm Cultivator, and you were actually able to heavily injure me!"
One must know, it was at the Middle Stage of the Saint Realm.
To ants of the Heavenly Human Realm, in its eyes, even its dragon might alone should have been enough to crush them to pieces.
The Su Youyu before it gave it too much shock.
If Su Youyu were in the Quasi-Saint Realm, perhaps it would have lost half its life here today, if not died.
"Among you Cultivators of the Hongmeng Continent, Prodigies like you are the most delicious. If I devour you, I can at least advance further!"
The dragon opened its bloody maw, like a giant abyss, and lunged at Su Youyu.
Su Youyu stared blankly at the giant mouth before her, her eyes full of dullness. "Am I going to die?"
A revolving lantern of memories flashed through her mind, all the past events surging into her heart.
Always timid and afraid of death, she would always run far away whenever she encountered danger.
This time, she did not know why she had acted like a moth to a flame.
She helplessly closed her eyes, waiting for the arrival of death.
Just as she was in total despair, the dragon roared, "Get out! Get out for me!"
Su Youyu opened her beautiful eyes in a daze, only to find that the previously aggressive dragon was now twisted together like a pretzel.
It coiled up like a giant peak, roaring angrily towards its own abdomen.
Puff!
From the dragon's abdomen, a great halberd shattered its scales and shot straight out.
Qin Xuan held the heavenly desolation halberd in his right hand and a white jade bottle in his left, which shone brilliantly in the sunlight.
He had learned from Leng Li that these treasures were hidden in the bellies of exotic beasts. He was worried that if he killed the dragon carelessly, he might damage the treasures, which was why they had been swallowed.
Otherwise, with him holding a quasi-emperor artifact and having Leng Li, a Saint King Realm expert, hiding in the small tower, how could he be unable to defeat a Middle Stage Saint Realm dragon?
Playing with the milky-white jade bottle in his hand, Qin Xuan had a look of suspicion in his eyes.
He could not understand what use this treasure had.
It was not a Treasure Artifact, let alone a Sacred Artifact.
Yet, like the dragon's inner core, it was hidden in the most core part of its body.
Before he could find an answer, the heavily injured Su Youyu had already rushed to his side.
Her small hands balled into fists, beating against his chest as she cursed angrily, "Jerk, evil egg, you big scumbag!"
"When I called you just now, why didn't you answer me?"
"If you weren't dead, why would I have fought to the death with this Saint Realm dragon?"
"If I had known earlier that you were alive, how would I have ended up like this!"
"You have caused me such suffering! You jerk Senior Brother!!"
Seeing Qin Xuan return, Su Youyu was both happy and aggrieved.
Once she confirmed Qin Xuan was still alive, only grievances remained in her heart.
She was extremely annoyed.
She hated that Qin Xuan had sat by and watched, causing her to lose a large amount of blood essence, leaving her aura withered and her strength less than one-tenth of what it was.
How was she supposed to survive in this dangerous Land of Fallen Emperors from now on?
Qin Xuan grabbed Su Youyu's small hand and gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, saying in a deep voice, "I will avenge you!"
He turned around and threw the heavenly desolation halberd.
In the air, the heavenly desolation halberd multiplied into thousands, hanging upside down like a rain of pear blossoms, shooting crazily toward the heavily wounded and dying dragon.
It pierced the dragon until it was riddled with holes, and its massive body was completely pulverized.
Even its Divine Soul was captured by Leng Li inside the ancient prison-suppressing tower and refined in an instant.
Its Divine Soul was completely destroyed!
Su Youyu said indignantly, "What is the point of killing it now? I'm already ruined; I'm practically at the point where I can't even take care of myself in bed."
"I don't care. Wherever you go from now on, you must take me, this burden, with you!"
"You are not allowed to abandon me; you must bring me out of the Land of Fallen Emperors alive!"
Su Youyu coughed up blood, but she didn't care, holding tightly onto Qin Xuan's arm.
She didn't complain much more; what was done was done, and it was useless to regret it.
It just so happened that she could now logically cling to Qin Xuan's leg.
She wouldn't be shaken off no matter what.
Qin Xuan took out a large amount of Heaven And Earth Treasure from the ancient prison-suppressing tower.
These were all consolation gifts sent by the Elders and Peak Masters of the Yaochi Sacred Land earlier.
He had his cheat, so he didn't need them, and he gave them all to Su Youyu. "These should be enough for you to break through to the Quasi-Saint Realm. Break through and then rebuild; if you fear death again, you don't know when you will be able to step over the threshold of the Quasi-Saint Realm."
One must know, Su Youyu was the Saintess of the Yaochi Sacred Land.
Between the Butian Holy Land and the Yaochi Sacred Land, Su Youyu was undoubtedly the weakest, her Realm so low it was painful to look at.
She relied entirely on the underworld emperor bell.
Being able to have this experience could be considered an Opportunity.
Su Youyu took the Heaven And Earth Treasure and started stuffing them into her mouth like she was eating berries. She didn't even care about the thick white mist rising from her mouth and nose, staring at Qin Xuan and saying, "You did this on purpose, just to make me break through and rebuild, and advance to the Quasi-Saint Realm?"
Qin Xuan nodded without hesitation and asked in return, "Otherwise?"
He wasn't an idiot; naturally, he couldn't reveal his inner thoughts of testing her.
It looked like Su Youyu had received his Heaven And Earth Treasure, but in reality, he had already set his sights on this Saintess's life and wealth.
It was like bait for fishing; without investment, there would naturally be no return.
If Su Youyu had run away earlier, he wouldn't have given her any benefits, and he would have even been mentally prepared to take everything and deny responsibility later.
But now, Su Youyu had broken through the shackles of her personality and, at the critical moment, fought the dragon to the death for him.
This changed his previous impression, and he was certain that Su Youyu was just a foolish woman with a hard mouth but a soft heart.
She always acted timid and afraid of death, and would always seem ready to sell out acquaintances without mercy.
In reality, when she truly encountered a situation, she would rather die than submit.
Naturally, he didn't have to worry about being sold out by Su Youyu.
"You are always calculating against me. Since you gave me enough Heaven And Earth Treasure, I will reluctantly forgive you this time." Su Youyu gave Qin Xuan an indignant glare.
Immediately, she leaned her head toward Qin Xuan's chest, staring at the milky-white jade bottle in his left hand, and asked curiously, "Is this the treasure from inside the dragon's belly? What is its use?"
Qin Xuan weighed the jade bottle and used his Qi to activate it, feeling a suction force erupt.
He then let the jade bottle fly out.
Only to see that from the Three Thousand Weak Waters, a column of water was twisted and sucked into the jade bottle.
