Chapter 357 - 358 Chapter 363 True Dragon Divine Medicine

358: Chapter 363 True Dragon Divine Medicine 358: Chapter 363 True Dragon Divine Medicine The Dragon Nest was filled with numerous Dragon Caves.

Dragon Qi surged, Divine Radiance flickered, ancient coffins floated and sank, and ancient creatures were awakening.

Ye Fan felt a chill from head to toe.

He sensed an immense crisis, as if pinned by a True Dragon, his bones and flesh on the verge of shattering.

Immediately, he activated the mysterious jade platform and dashed forward, materializing a giant hand to uproot the Ancient Divine Medicine and escape.

However, to his surprise, the roots of this holy divine relic were extremely tough, impossible to pull out.

Ye Fan’s expression changed.

Although the divine medicine was precious, life was more valuable.

He didn’t want to lose his life over it; otherwise, everything would truly be for naught.

A piercing scream emanated from the Dragon Nest, extremely shrill and soul-stirring.

In the distance, Tu Fei’s and Pang Bo’s hairs stood on end, let alone Ye Fan’s.

At that moment, his scalp felt numb.

A murderous intent, like a monstrous flood, swept over him, as if it could crush this entire world.

If it weren’t for the Origin Qi Cauldron, this murderous intent alone could have pierced him through.

It was unimaginable what kind of powerful creature this was.

With a hurried glance, he saw that ancient coffin still floating in the Divine Source Heap.

The two-meter-long Supreme Divine Source Block, sealed with a humanoid creature inside, remained unbroken.

He knew what he saw was only a corner of the Dragon Nest; there had to be other ancient creatures.

The terrifying sound was coming from elsewhere.

Gritting his teeth, Ye Fan lunged at the divine medicine, reaching out to uproot it.

He discovered that the materialized hand couldn’t affect this holy divine relic; it could naturally draw divine energy, absorbing it completely.

Suddenly, the entire divine medicine shook, golden lights flickering.

The fruit it bore struggled as if trying to break free.

Ye Fan was transfixed; this Ancient Divine Medicine was extraordinary.

The golden fruit was dragon-shaped and seemed to have a life of its own, struggling back and forth.

It was like cast gold, vividly lifelike, splendidly dazzling.

The Dragon Pearl it held in its mouth, crystal clear and radiant, suddenly shot out.

The fragrance was intoxicating, irresistibly alluring, so much so that even someone as steadfast as Ye Fan almost lost himself.

He swiftly dodged to the side, guiding it with his hand to neutralize the Dragon Pearl’s power.

It possessed great force, enough to pierce ordinary flesh.

Ye Fan’s fingers traced a light arc imbued with the power of the Dao, fixing it in mid-air.

He hurriedly produced a white jade cauldron, uncovered the lid, and collected the Dragon Pearl inside.

SNAP!

The cauldron lid sealed shut, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The divine medicine had to be sealed in flawless Jade; otherwise, it would dissipate, leaving nothing behind.

After only a moment’s delay, the shrill sound had drawn several miles closer, about to burst from the Dragon Nest and reach them.

Ye Fan quickly reached for the Ancient Divine Medicine, intending to seize it, but something astounding happened.

Streaks of Dragon Qi swirled around the Ancient Divine Medicine as it transformed into a golden light and burrowed underground.

SWISH!

Ye Fan’s fingertips brushed against the dragon-shaped golden fruit, causing it to cough up nine golden droplets.

With a flash of light, it vanished completely.

Failed at the last moment!

Ye Fan felt the urge to curse; this divine medicine could actually move, which exceeded his expectations.

To be precise, only after ejecting the Dragon Pearl did it break free from its restraints and gain the ability to flee.

With a flash of light, a small jade bottle appeared in his hand, and he collected the nine golden droplets coughed up by the little dragon before they could hit the ground.

Simultaneously, he slapped the ground, shattering the surface.

Dragon Qi surged, but alas, the divine medicine was nowhere to be seen, having long since fled to an unknown location.

SMACK!

Ye Fan struck again.

Earth and stones scattered, and Divine Radiance shot up to the sky, overwhelmingly bright, blinding, as if a sun was buried underground.

Sure enough, there was a Divine Source beneath: a piece as large as a washbasin, even more incandescent than the Divine Sun.

Undoubtedly, the divine medicine could move and was drawing its essence from here.

“Little kid Ye, run!” Pang Bo shouted.

“The big one is about to burst out!” the Black Emperor also bellowed.

“It’s less than five hundred meters from you!” Tu Fei also exclaimed.

He didn’t need their shouts; Ye Fan had already sensed it.

It was as if a turbulent ocean was erupting from within the Dragon Nest.

He had never experienced such terrifying murderous intent.

It was so powerful that his body trembled involuntarily, and even the strands of Origin Qi descending from the Origin Qi Cauldron above his head were quivering.

Ye Fan swept his sleeve, collecting this Divine Source.

He then activated the mysterious jade platform and vanished instantly, beginning to traverse the void.

CRASH!

The mysterious jade platform left at his original spot shattered instantly, obliterated into dust by an invisible killing intent.

BANG!

Several miles away, Ye Fan plummeted out of the void.

If he hadn’t sensed the danger in time and hidden inside the cauldron, he would have been pulverized the instant his void traversal was interrupted.

Only a holy divine relic like the Origin Qi could protect him so thoroughly, unafraid of the void suddenly collapsing.

“Quick, run!” shouted Pang Bo, Tu Fei, and the large black dog from ahead.

They weren’t far off and had a mysterious jade platform ready to traverse the void.

Ye Fan executed the old madman’s footwork and instantly rushed onto the black Jade Platform.

Simultaneously, the Black Emperor activated Source, invoking Dao Glyphs.

The moment the Void Gate opened, Ye Fan hurriedly glanced back and saw a creature streaking towards them from several miles away like a bolt of lightning.

It was enveloped in a Divine Ring, appearing as valiant as a god.

Long purple hair obscured most of its face, revealing only a pair of purple eyes, as sharp as knives.

It had no arms, only a pair of golden Divine Wings that seemed forged from Divine Gold.

Its lower body was serpentine, over ten meters long, with shimmering black scales.

It flew through the air, faster than lightning.

Ye Fan used the cauldron to pull his companions inside.

At the same time, the void closed, and they vanished from their original spot.

Behind them, the ancient creature closed in by a mile in an instant.

With a great roar, it spat out a mouthful of enormous Qi.

BOOM!

The mysterious jade platform was pulverized by an invisible killing aura.

BANG!

Above the Abyss, the Origin Qi Cauldron tumbled out.

The group was in a sorry state but unharmed.

At the same time, they once again saw the Ice Palace.

Inside, the peerless beauty lay peacefully asleep, floating amidst the surging Dragon Qi.

“Why did I see her eyelashes twitch again?” the Black Emperor muttered, quickly retreating a few steps.

“Seventy or eighty thousand years have passed!

It’s impossible for her to still be alive!

Quickly, activate the mysterious jade platform!” Tu Fei snapped, urging it to act.

A deafening roar shook the ten-thousand-meter-deep Abyss; the ancient creature was about to charge up.

“Is there any justice in this world?!

In the blink of an eye, it’s almost on top of us!

Its speed is absurd, barely slower than our void traversals!” one of them cried out.

With a flash of brilliance, the group vanished again.

This time, they arrived at the exit of the Underground Palace.

They hadn’t failed their void traversal and fallen out; rather, the Array Patterns of the Ancient Sacred Land had sealed the path ahead, preventing them from passing through.

They quickly found the original passage, charged to the surface, and reached the Great Snow Mountain.

With almost no hesitation, they began to traverse the void once more.

This time, they traversed a full four thousand miles before stopping.

“The Ancient Royal Family is terrifying!” Pang Bo said, sitting in the snow, his heart still pounding with fear.

“This definitely isn’t an Ancient King.

When a true king emerges, a million corpses will pile high, and rivers of blood will flow.

Their power is unimaginable,” the Black Emperor said, shaking its head.

“You damn dog, you’re too wicked!

The Ancient Kings are so powerful, yet you still incited little kid Ye to pick the divine medicine?” Tu Fei berated it.

“The Ancient Kings definitely won’t emerge; they are in eternal slumber.

Only their Guardians might be awakened.” The Black Emperor offered a slew of excuses, “Besides, the Dragon Nest is so large, and the exit was miles away.

It was worth the risk, and didn’t we succeed?” Ye Fan still felt a lingering fear.

If the Guardians alone were this powerful, then how strong were the beings in the floating ancient coffin and the Supreme Divine Source Block?

Although he had regrets about not being able to pick that holy divine relic, his gains had been substantial.

This trip was not in vain.

Ye Fan took out the white jade cauldron and the jade bottles.

Even though they were tightly sealed, a heart-refreshing fragrance still wafted out.

Then, he retrieved the Divine Source.

Instantly, myriad beams of Divine Radiance erupted, illuminating the Ice Field.

“The haul is enormous!” Pang Bo and Tu Fei exclaimed, astounded.

The Black Emperor was practically drooling.

“Don’t get any ideas, you wretched dog!” Tu Fei warned.

“This is for Ye Fan to break his curse.

If you dare try to snatch it, the three of us will skin you alive and eat dog meat!” “Damn it!

Am I that kind of dog emperor?” the Black Emperor retorted.

“It’d be strange if you weren’t!” Tu Fei scoffed.

They took turns examining the treasures, marveling.

The Dragon Pearl was crystal clear, sparkling with a rich, intoxicating fragrance.

The nine drops of golden Dragon Liquid were equally miraculous, resembling nine tiny dragons, their aroma seeping deep into one’s bones.

“Truly a peerless divine medicine!

Its value is immeasurable!” “The fruit produced by that divine medicine was actually a dragon and a Dragon Pearl!

How incredible!” None of them could estimate its value, but they felt it was surely far more precious than the incomplete divine medicine cut out in the Sacred City.

After all, this was a complete Dragon Pearl Fruit.

It was a pity that the Dragon Fruit hadn’t been picked; otherwise, the various Sacred Lords and Emperors would have fought to the death for it.

This was undoubtedly the only divine medicine that could be harvested in the current age.

The Black Emperor stared longingly, but Tu Fei wouldn’t let it get close, claiming its wretched character was utterly untrustworthy.

In the end, Ye Fan held it out, allowing the Black Emperor to inspect it closely.

It drooled copiously, while Tu Fei clutched its neck tightly, just in case.

“Ancient Divine Medicines are exceedingly rare!

Each one represents the life of a peerless expert.

In the eyes of those who need them, they are more precious than even Extreme Dao Holy Weapons!” the Black Emperor declared.

“Let alone the Dragon Pearl Fruit, these nine drops of Dragon Liquid alone have an astonishing origin.

They must be the True Blood coughed up by that little dragon—its very essence!” “Actually, if one could successfully cultivate a divine medicine and keep it by one’s side forever, that would truly be more desirable than an Extreme Dao Holy Weapon.” As the Black Emperor spoke these words, its drool melted a large patch of snow on the ground.

If Tu Fei hadn’t been holding it down firmly, it probably would have pounced.

Ye Fan’s heart was also stirred.

If he could nurture an Ancient Divine Medicine by his side, the benefits would truly be endless.

Unfortunately, it was almost impossible to achieve.

Even the various Sacred Lands couldn’t do it, as they were unable to find a Divine Energy Spring.

“When my sacred body achieves Great Success, I will definitely go back and plant that divine medicine by my side,” Ye Fan declared.

“A Great Success Holy Body can live for tens of thousands of years!

If you then nurture an Ancient Divine Medicine as well, the people from the Sacred Lands will surely weep and curse you behind your back every day!” Pang Bo chimed in.

The Black Emperor drooled again and said, “Nurturing a divine medicine is like gaining an extra life!

A Great Success Holy Body could definitely contend with a Great Emperor!” “The ancient sages could open up their own minor worlds.

Nurturing an Ancient Divine Medicine there would be most suitable.” Suddenly, Pang Bo started, looking towards the horizon.

“Someone’s coming,” he said.

It was a group of a dozen or so women, as elegant as Immortals, flying through the air.

Their purple clothes fluttered, making them appear exceptionally ethereal amidst the ice and snow.

“The sacred lady of the Purple Mansion is supposed to enter this Ice Field.

Could it be her?” Tu Fei wondered aloud.

“That’s right, they’re from the Purple Mansion,” Pang Bo confirmed.

Tu Fei burst into hearty laughter.

“Brothers, what are we waiting for?

Today, we must definitely hunt down the sacred lady of the Purple Mansion!” “My imperial wish is about to be fulfilled!

To capture a Saint Heir or sacred lady as a human pet!” the Black Emperor howled like a wolf.

If anyone had heard their words, they would have been utterly dumbfounded.

These four were audacious beyond belief; when together, they were undoubtedly a band of calamities.
