Chapter 1157: Chapter 1183: What Kind of Luck is this in Digging Up Herbs? (Third Update) Chapter 1157: Chapter 1183: What Kind of Luck is this in Digging Up Herbs? (Third Update) The clarity of the Evil Shadow Black Glutton's mind grew more acute, and the series of hee-hee-hee not only made the scalp of those from the Green Lotus Sect tingle, it also left Yang Zhen with eyes widened in shock.
Seeing the Heaven and Earth Demonic Fiend about to flee, Yang Zhen immediately became anxious and pointed at the fiend, saying, “Stop laughing already, the Heaven and Earth Demonic Fiend is about to run away.”
Only then did the Evil Shadow Black Glutton stop laughing and rushed forward with a howling sound.
Yang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, for although the Heaven and Earth Demonic Fiend appeared extremely terrifying, its sluggish movements made Yang Zhen want to whip it into action.
“In the world of martial arts, no fort can withstand a continuous assault, and nothing can outpace speed,” Yang Zhen always taught the Evil Shadow Black Glutton. Although the Great Missing Sword was heavy, its strikes had to be swift–swifter still.
For the Great Missing Sword to achieve speed, not only must Yang Zhen's power keep up, but as the sword spirit, the Evil Shadow Black Glutton's speed had to be even faster–a strength where it greatly surpassed the recently subdued sword spirit Yang Zhen had taken under his wing.
Yang Zhen had no interest in using that arrogant little thing, which spent its days either in sudden enlightenment or sleeping, or else pestering Yang Zhen to enlighten it on the Sword Dao.
What did Yang Zhen know about the Sword Dao? The Path of Tricking was more like it.
In any case, through a mix of bluffing and deceit, Yang Zhen finally induced the little thing into a state of sudden enlightenment–one that wouldn't fade for a year or a half.
As for what the little thing would become after awakening, Yang Zhen felt no anticipation; he just preferred it wouldn't pester him about the Sword Dao anymore.
Roar–!
A warning roar echoed, shaking the heavens and earth with its thunderous bellow.
The Heaven and Earth Demonic Fiend had no other skills, but it was excellent at intimidating others. The roar scared the Evil Shadow Black Glutton into a shiver, and upon seeing the terrifying demonic aura erupting from the fiend, its eyes bulged.
The next moment, the Evil Shadow Black Glutton became furious!
Yang Zhen watched, dumbfounded. What would be the result when the Evil Shadow Black Glutton got angry?
The Heaven and Earth Demonic Fiend was thoroughly beaten into a dog cowering with its tail between its legs.
Boom boom boom!
A series of muffled sounds erupted as the Evil Shadow Black Glutton slapped the Heaven and Earth Demonic Fiend repeatedly, forcing out all the demonic aura within its body.
Such terrifying demonic aura would envelop a practitioner and, if it didn't drive them mad on the spot, it would undoubtedly trap them in an endless torment of demonic inner demons.
To the Evil Shadow Black Glutton, however, these were nourishing delicacies it devoured with relish.
The leader of the Green Lotus Sect and the others watched the nearly violent scene unfolding mid-air, their faces a picture of absurd shock.
Lin Miaoyi, wearing a bitter smile, didn't watch much of the Evil Shadow Black Glutton thrashing the Heaven and Earth Demonic Fiend. Instead, her gaze lingered more on Yang Zhen.
What kind of person was Yang Zhen to have nurtured such a sword spirit?
Seeing Yang Zhen's excited demeanor and even offering advice to the Evil Shadow Black Glutton made Zhou Tong tremble.
“Damn it, this kid is simply a devil,” he muttered.
The pretense of the Old Taoist and Ghost Granny was meaningful as they nodded in agreement. It was fortunate that Weng Yongli didn't witness this scene. If he had, who knows what kind of Yin Shadow it might have left on his mind.
Lin Miaoyi harbored more curiosity than hostility towards Yang Zhen, and deep down, there was a stubborn unwillingness to concede.
After witnessing this scene, she completely accepted her defeat.
What would be the outcome of contending with a person like Yang Zhen? It would undoubtedly be a dismal one, wouldn't it? Looking at Zhou Tong's expression turning strange and uncomfortable, Lin Miaoyi couldn't help but want to laugh.
Even Zhou Tong, a senior like him, had become Yang Zhen's disciple. The thought made her want to laugh every time she thought about it.
What puzzled Lin Miaoyi the most was that Zhou Tong seemed not to dislike this arrangement at all. On the contrary, he mentioned proudly multiple times that Yang Zhen was his master.
Just then, the Heaven and Earth Demonic Fiend finally became furious.
Woof!
A crisp sound that made everyone stumble echoed through the area.
All those present turned to stone, staring blankly into the mid-air.
The Heaven and Earth Evil Demon… had shrunk to the size of half a person, and it looked as if its body had been hollowed out.
But… what was with that clear and transcendent 'woof'?
Yang Zhen's eyes nearly popped out as he watched the Evil Shadow Black Glutton about to slap down, knowing that after this slap, if the Heaven and Earth Evil Demon didn't die, it would be left with half a life.
“Wait a minute, what the heck…”
Driven by curiosity, Yang Zhen rushed forward to look at the Heaven and Earth Evil Demon, which was now wagging its tail and shaking its head like a puppy, his expression full of bemusement.
“Are you a doggy?”
He had never heard of a Heaven and Earth Evil Demon that looked so much like a dog.
The Heaven and Earth Evil Demon, knowing the Evil Shadow Black Glutton was under Yang Zhen's control, let out a 'woof' in response to Yang Zhen's words; though not particularly convincing, it was a decent imitation.
Before Yang Zhen could ask again, the Heaven and Earth Evil Demon immediately turned into a wisp of green smoke and merged into the huge coffin.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, the huge coffin suddenly erupted with a shocking burst of blood light and slowly opened.
“It's… it's opening!” Zhou Tong screamed, his scalp tingling and his face full of disbelief.
What kind of move was this?
Yang Zhen had gone up, played with the dog for a bit, and then the dog happily opened up the coffin?
Where were the promised inscriptions of the Barbaric Era?
Where was the life-risking challenge that wasn't guaranteed to open it?
Yang Zhen… just how lucky was he?
“This is called 'every creature has its nemesis'!” Yang Zhen grinned, waved at the audience in the arena, and said, “I'll go in and take a look first!”
Without waiting for the crowd to exclaim, he leapt into the huge coffin with the Evil Shadow Black Glutton in tow.
Boom!
The terrifying coffin closed back up after Yang Zhen entered, leaving the crowd with chills running down their spines.
The Green Lotus Sect leader showed a strange look and said with concern, “Isn't Yang Zhen being a bit too impulsive?”
The feigned Taoist nodded in agreement and said, “I also feel he's too rash; if there's any danger inside…”
“Why don't we go up and take a look?” Zhou Tong said eagerly. When he saw everyone looking at him as if he was an idiot, he glared angrily and said, “What's with that look? Don't tell me you all misunderstand that scoundrel Yang Zhen. Do you really think he would be the first to go in if there was still danger inside?”
Upon hearing this, everyone was shaken and immediately rushed toward the huge coffin even faster than before, with Lin Miaoyi trailing behind them up into the air.
Zhou Tong was left dumbfounded as he watched everyone fly away, his prepared speech unpublished, and he cursed under his breath, “Damn it, you guys are so uncool.”
However, before anyone reached the huge coffin, they heard a sound like that of a metal megaphone creaking, and the massive coffin in mid-air slowly dispersed, becoming what looked like a vast arena.
Endless intricate patterns were carved on the bronze floor tiles, complex and dense. Lin Miaoyi took one glance and gasped, her face turning pale, not daring to look again.
Yang Zhen's cursing voice came from the arena: “What kind of Barbaric Era treasure is this, just this crappy thing? What's this? A Dao seed? Does this Sao Saint look like someone who needs Dao seeds? What's this? Oh, a Heaven and Earth Green Lotus seed? This Sao Saint already has an Annihilation Heavenly Sky Lotus in his mind, and you're gifting another seed? What kind of stingy guy who could sever three hundred and sixty layers of heavenly tribulation are you? Just two seeds to appease this Sao Saint? These two seeds… heh, they really smell good!”
“Dao seed?”
The Green Lotus Sect leader and others cried out in unison!
