Chapter 444: The True Yin-Yang Realm 【Boom!】 (Part 1)
Chapter 444: The True Yin-Yang Realm 【Boom!】 (Part 1)
Little Bear snuggled in Fang Che's embrace, contentedly closing her eyes.
Meanwhile, Little White Tiger looked on enviously and cautiously approached. Seeing that Little Bear didn't open her eyes to object, she also carefully snuggled into Fang Che's embrace...
And promptly closed her eyes.
She fell into a sweet slumber.
Fang Che felt as if he was navigating a raging storm, with countless waves crashing and surging.
He skillfully maneuvered, calmly reciting the Boundless Dharmic Scripture.
Heavenly Earthly Essence poured down like a funnel, focusing on him in the deep pit.
As the scripture continued to flow, his divine perception power gradually stabilized.
Then, he gradually gained control.
Unbeknownst to him, his bottleneck loosened, then cracked, and finally shattered... Without realizing it, he had broken through to the Marquis Seventh Rank.
Moreover, the scripture kept flowing, and his cultivation continued to rise.
His meridians and divine perception could withstand the strain.
He decided to continue his cultivation without pause.
Time passed unnoticed.
In the blink of an eye, a day and a night had gone by...
During this time, Fang Che and Yan Bei Han remained with their eyes closed,
while Little Bear and Little White Tiger leaned against Fang Che's body, also falling into a deep and sweet slumber without feeling hungry.
As they slept, their fur underwent a transformation. It became crystal-like, then aged, gradually turning dull and shedding. New fur grew, covering their bodies...
Then, it shed again.
The Boundless Dharmic Scripture poured into them endlessly, continuously cleansing and nourishing.
The bodies of Little Bear and Little White Tiger also received constant nourishment, shedding fur with each cycle.
Gradually, Fang Che's legs became covered, layer upon layer.
Finally...
Yan Bei Han released a long breath, a white mist shooting out like an arrow and hitting the stone wall opposite her.
She slowly opened her eyes, first examining her own body and noticing the vast and mighty sea of divine perception, now stable and powerful.
She realized that during her slumber, she had unknowingly broken through to the King Fourth Rank.
A smug smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.
"I've widened the gap once again."
Hmm.
Her mood instantly soared with delight.
She turned to look and was surprised to find Fang Che still immersed in his cultivation.
"This guy always cultivates longer than me. Seems like he's made significant progress," she thought.
She carefully sensed the flow of energy.
Her calmness vanished in an instant.
She almost let out a scream.
Marquis Eighth Rank?! Moreover... this aura was still growing. Currently, it was... Marquis Eighth Rank mid-stage? But what was this?
Before entering her meditative state, she had just broken through to the Marquis Sixth Rank a few days ago. How could she be at the Eighth Rank now? And what's more, she was still advancing towards the late stage?
Was this guy about to surpass her?
Yan Bei Han suddenly felt a bone-chilling danger.
Could it be that he was catching up to her? As she pondered, an unknown amount of time passed. Fang Che gradually slowed the flow of spirit qi, his meridians swelling with power.
But his divine perception power had completely stabilized.
He slowly opened his eyes, only to see a pair of wide, round, and beautiful eyes staring at him from across the stone wall, devoid of any divine light.
"Ah!"
Fang Che was startled. "What are you doing?"
It was Yan Bei Han, examining him closely.
Yan Bei Han was also startled and let out a surprised "Ya!" "How are you awake?"
Fang Che rolled his eyes.
"Can't I wake up?" he asked, grinning. "What are you looking at?"
"How did you reach the Marquis Eighth Rank late stage? And so quickly?" Yan Bei Han's face once again showed her displeasure.
"I can accept that you're catching up slowly."
It's fine if you get a little closer.
But with such rapid progress, you'll surpass me soon!
"Divine perception power can assist in cultivation, extending cultivation time, and enhance meridian endurance. Isn't that normal?" Fang Che replied with a dismissive eye roll.
"You're the expert here, acting surprised over something so normal? Besides, you broke through too," he added.
Yan Bei Han's breakthrough aura was evident to Fang Che.
"I only broke through by one rank..." she said.
"But you're a King Rank breakthrough!"
"Still, it's just one rank, while you've advanced by two and a half, almost three ranks."
"But you're still not my match, right?"
"That's true."
Yan Bei Han humphed. "But it's still too fast."
"..."
Fang Che didn't feel like talking. Why were women always so petty, even getting jealous over this?
He reached out to pat the two small creatures on his body, intending to throw one at Yan Bei Han to silence her.
But as he touched them, he felt something strange... fur? He looked down and saw his hand covered in fur!
Yan Bei Han also looked down, surprised. "They've molted? And not just once?"
Indeed, Fang Che's body was covered in fur.
He was almost buried in it.
Little Bear stirred three times before poking her head out, while Little Tiger also woke up, dazed. Instinctively, she closed her mouth, only to yelp in pain...
Her teeth had grown, and she didn't even realize it. She closed her mouth again, sticking out her tongue, whimpering and whining pitifully.
Fang Che pulled the two small creatures out from the fur pile and handed them to Yan Bei Han.
Then, he stood up, shaking off the bear and tiger fur from his body.
A large clump of fur fell to the ground.
The different layers were clearly visible.
A preliminary estimate showed that Little Tiger had molted at least twice, while Little Bear had molted once at the minimum.
As the two small creatures woke up, they whimpered.
"Grrr... grrr..."
Their stomachs rumbled continuously.
However, they were starving.
Fang Che and Yan Bei Han's stomachs were growling, desperately needing food after their breakthrough.
Yan Bei Han puffed up her cheeks, trying to stop the rumbling in her stomach, but to no avail. Embarrassed, she glared at Fang Che.
Feeling like punching him.
Fang Che's eyes shifted, "I'm starving, I can't take it anymore. Don't you have some grilled meat over there?"
"Let's fill our stomachs first."
Yan Bei Han's heart relaxed, and she immediately took out a large pile of grilled meat from her Spatial Ring.
Fang Che and the two little ones rushed forward like three starving wolves.
They devoured the meat.
Yan Bei Han watched with amusement and concern, "Eat slowly... Don't choke..."
She grabbed a piece for herself, turned around, and started eating small bites.
Trying to maintain some elegance...
After all, she was a girl, and couldn't eat so messily.
But she was really too hungry...
Unable to resist, she took a big bite...
Ah!
Ah, ah!
Bite after bite.
What was that sound? Fang Che looked up in surprise, following the sound. He saw Yan Bei Han eating with her mouth wide open, turning her body to hide it, but her mouth was so big that a satisfying 'mmmm' sound came from her mouth...
He glanced at Little Tiger and Little Bear: their mouths wide open, biting down hard, and a satisfied 'mmmm' sound came from their mouths...
Fang Che almost laughed out loud.
Quickly, he stuffed his mouth with meat to stop himself from laughing.
Yan Bei Han ate a large piece of monster beast meat before finally feeling something in her stomach. She realized her embarrassment, turned her head, and saw Fang Che looking at her with a smile.
Embarrassed and furious, she said, "What are you looking at?"
In an instant, she became fierce, leaping up, "Are you laughing at me? Come, let's spar!"
Her face flushed, and her eyes narrowed.
Fang Che raised his hands in surrender, "I was wrong! I shouldn't have looked, I apologize... I'll continue eating meat... "
He took out several spiritual fruits from his Spatial Ring, which were the Heavenly Materials given by the White Tiger Mother, "Do you want to eat some fruit to refresh your mouth?"
"Hmph!"
Yan Bei Han grabbed one and ate it. After eating it, she felt the greasy taste in her mouth reduced, and the fruit's refreshing energy rushed to her head. Her mind cleared, now clear, and she said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, it's the least I could do."
Fang Che ate his meat silently.
Hiding his thoughts.
This girl, she was so easy to tease.
"It's gone, it's really gone."
Yan Bei Han looked at the place where the Divine Perception Sword once existed.
"It should be that after Little Bear and the others finished eating, the remaining Divine Perception Power dissipated," said Fang Che.
"Yeah, what a pity."
Yan Bei Han knew she couldn't swallow it, but she still felt it was a shame.
A rare encounter.
"Let's go."
Fang Che finished eating and stood up.
Yan Bei Han hesitated, reluctant to leave.
Fang Che laughed bitterly, "What are you thinking, sister? Do you think this is something that can be obtained by digging a hole?"
"What if... it's there?" Yan Bei Han said weakly.
"Impossible."
Fang Che sighed.
Yan Bei Han knew it was impossible to dig it out, but her heart still held onto a glimmer of hope, only because this thing... was truly rare in ancient and modern times.
She reluctantly picked up Little White Tiger, "Little White Tiger has grown bigger and heavier."
She put down Little White Tiger and picked up Little Bear, weighing it, "Little Bear hasn't grown, but it's still so heavy. How strange."
Fang Che pondered, "It seems Little Bear's roots are deeper... but I don't know what it is."
Yan Bei Han's love for Little Bear grew.
"Little guy, what are you exactly... why aren't you growing?"
She grabbed Little Bear's face and squeezed it.
Little Bear whined, looking pitifully at Fang Che for help.
Fang Che pretended not to see, maintaining his distance.
A man must know what to do and what not to do. He couldn't afford to put himself in the mother tiger's line of sight!
After eating their fill, the two of them and the two little ones left the deep pit.
"Which way should we go?" Yan Bei Han asked, feeling a bit lost.
Fang Che smiled bitterly, "I think we don't need a specific goal. Let's just pick a direction and walk, collecting Heavenly Materials along the way. If we're discovered by the flying bird tribe, the centipede tribe, or the snake tribe... then besides running for our lives, there's no other option. At that time, any direction will do."
Yan Bei Han said, "Tsk tsk tsk, you're jinxing us! There are so many monster beasts here, like mountains and seas. Don't talk nonsense!"
The facts proved.
Fang Che's guess was correct.
The two of them left this area and were safe for less than half a day.
Although they were extremely careful, when they passed through a desolate area, a clear birdcall suddenly rang out in the sky.
A colorful bird with sharp eyes fixed its gaze on the two of them.
Especially on Little White Tiger.
The two of them instantly felt a chill.
They were discovered!
This bird was the same kind that had followed Fire Phoenix to surround the White Tiger couple. It was also the bird that had caused the dispute when White Tiger had knocked it down with a single cry.
At this moment, the bird was circling a thousand feet in the sky, its sharp eyes fixed on them below.
The distance was too great, and it only appeared the size of a pigeon.
But with a loud cry, the bird had already circled once, and with a whoosh, it dove down.
Its size grew in their line of sight.
A clear cry had already notified the others.
The next step was to dive and fight, obviously intending to entangle the two of them!
Fang Che and Yan Bei Han exchanged a glance, both seeing the killing intent in each other's eyes.
This flat-haired beast couldn't be kept alive!
Then, they both rolled and retreated, pretending to flee.
As they discussed, the wind in the air suddenly grew cold, and the bird saw the two of them trying to escape. In an instant, its ten-foot wingspan closed, and it turned into a black light, diving down!
But, when the bird reached dozens of feet in the sky...
Fang Che and Yan Bei Han simultaneously merged with their swords, surging upwards!
Two bolts of lightning, one on the left and one on the right, both unstoppable!
The bird sensed the clear danger, but it was already diving down and couldn't change course. With a sharp cry, its two iron claws slashed out!
The two sides narrowly missed each other!
A cry of pain.
Fang Che's blade and Yan Beihan's sword were both peerless divine weapons, and their cultivation after breaking through made them even more formidable.
With a loud 'Poof', the giant bird was directly sliced into four pieces in mid-air, its colorful feathers scattering.
Fresh blood splattered across the sky, and the bird's body, divided into four pieces, slowly descended.
Fang Che and Yan Beihan crossed paths, each letting out a muffled grunt.
Both of their clothes were torn, and on their chests, a bright scratch mark appeared on their treasure robes!
If not for these protective robes, this life-and-death collision would have resulted in both of them being disemboweled! However, despite this, during the intense clash, Fang Che and Yan Beihan each broke a rib.
But these minor injuries were of no concern.
They swiftly circled back like rays of light.
Yan Beihan's sword sliced off the bird's head, and with a flick of her blade, a bright inner pill flew out, heading towards Fang Che.
Immediately, she hugged Little Bear and Little White Tiger, soared into the air, and flew towards Fang Che.
Fang Che understood her intention, catching the pill in mid-air, sheathing her long blade, and extending a hand, waiting in the void. As Yan Beihan flew towards her, she grabbed Yan Beihan's waist sash.
With a 'Xiu' sound, Yan Beihan, carrying Fang Che, skimmed the ground, flying several hundred zhang above the ground.
Over the past year, their coordination had reached a seamless level.
No matter the action or task, they needed no words; a mere glance was all that was required for perfect understanding.
They sped off rapidly.
Their target was a dense forest several hundred li ahead.
Only by entering the forest could they possibly escape their pursuers.
The giant bird's loud cry had already sent a signal, and a large group of birds was about to arrive.
If they couldn't enter the forest before the birds arrived, they would be finished.
Fang Che, being pulled along in flight, reached out and took out two pills, swallowing one and offering the other to Yan Beihan.
Yan Beihan, while flying, did not slow down, and with a small mouthful, she swallowed the pill.
The pill's power surged instantly.
The broken ribs began to heal rapidly.
They had already covered two-thirds of the distance.
From behind, a sharp cry sounded, and in the sky, a group of birds, with their bodies blocking out the sun, were diving towards them.
Yan Beihan held her breath, her sword flashing as she became a lightning bolt streaking across the ground.
Not only did she not slow down, but she increased her speed!
However, her face showed a wry smile.
Becoming one with her sword, this life-and-death killing technique, the ultimate move of sword cultivation, was originally meant for killing.
Yet here, it had become a life-saving skill!
This irony was not lost on her.
The piercing cries of the birds behind them grew louder and more dreadful, and a shadow formed in the sky, as countless birds used their massive bodies to block out the sun.
The shadow rapidly enveloped the two of them.
The speed of the flying birds was incomparable to humans.
The sky resounded with intense sonic booms as the birds broke through the speed barrier.
They dove, appearing several hundred li away in an instant.
Ancient trees stood in the dark forest.
The shadow from behind had already reached above their heads!
Yan Beihan did not hesitate.
Like a hurricane, she charged into the forest, instantly covering several hundred zhang within the forest.
Her longsword continued to thrust forward, and as she passed a large tree, her left hand grabbed Fang Che's waist sash.
Fang Che's Boundless Dharmic Scripture erupted within him, and with two stomps of her feet on the tree, his broken ribs began to heal.
His long blade flashed, piercing the forest's darkness.
His speed was now several times faster than Yan Beihan's previous pace. With a 'Xiu' sound, they burst into the depths, disappearing from sight.
Behind them, a towering ancient tree was kicked, its massive crown flying towards the pursuing bird group.
Boom, boom, boom...
The birds used their sharp beaks to collide with the tree.
The tree's trunk exploded, and the birds flew out.
But ahead, all was calm, and Fang Che and Yan Beihan's traces had vanished.
Angry cries filled the air as the birds searched for their prey.
They soared into the sky, searching for the two's direction.
Fang Che and Yan Beihan held their breath, motionless, sensing the birds had flown away. Just as they let out a sigh of relief, they immediately widened their eyes in shock: not far from their hiding spot...
A small group of golden-headed centipedes scattered in all directions.
Their antennae waved, signaling their escape.
Fang Che immediately took action.
'Zhi, zhi, zhi...'
Several gusts of wind blasted out, shattering hundreds of golden-headed centipedes into powder.
But... many had already escaped.
Moreover, their small bodies were difficult to find amidst the thick layer of fallen leaves.
Beyond the dense forest, various insects, ants, and centipedes scurried away in panic, seemingly spreading the news.
