Chapter 1863: Yin Yang Immortal Grass
This person gave Long Chen a sensation of great pressure . Long Chen even suspected that he was the Bloodkill Hall’s strongest assassin . Rumor was that the Bloodkill Hall’s strongest assassin was above the number rankings .
However, the only one he knew was Dong Mingyu, who had gotten on the Devil Slaughter Rankings . That name sounded like it belonged to a woman, so this person should not be her .
“Bloodkill 1 has been slain by you . A new Bloodkill 1 has already been born, but they are no longer qualified to assassinate you . That’s why the mission for your head has been given to us . We belong to the Killing God Hall . I am one of the Killing God Hall’s three divine emissaries . My name and title is Man Killer . The three divine emissaries are ranked heaven, earth, and man, and I am third . I am also the one who will take your life, so remember it,” said that assassin of the Bloodkill Hall .
“Heaven Killer? Earth Killer? Man Killer?” Long Chen smiled mockingly . “There really is no one that brags like your Bloodkill Hall . If you brag this much, I’ll think that you’re Dong Mingyu . Why hasn’t she come?”
The assassin shook his head . “Someone like you isn’t qualified to have the divine daughter personally chosen by the Killing God to come kill you . It’s the three divine emissaries that will take your life . ”
Long Chen looked at him . Pointing at Man Killer’s feet, Long Chen shook his head . “You’re bragging so much, but you’ve already made preparations to run . You have no intention of fighting with me . Is there a point to your bragging?”
The space beneath the Bloodkill Hall’s assassin was starting to shake . It formed a portal for him . He was ready to run at any moment .
“The Bloodkill Hall’s assassins don’t face people head-on . We’ll just wait for a chance to kill you in one blow . No matter what time it is, as long as you relax the slightest bit, my sword will summon you to the Killing God . ”
“Are you trying to play mental warfare with me? If so, you’re too immature . When you attack the next time, I’ll show you just how laughable your ‘diverse’ assassination arts are . ”
Long Chen laughed and turned away, leaving . The Bloodkill Hall’s assassins were all crafty and slippery . Their fleeing arts were even greater than their assassination arts . If Long Chen tried to fight him head-on, he would immediately slip away .
The chances of killing a strong assassin were abysmal . Without catching them, there was no chance . They had their own ways of protecting themselves .
Long Chen wanted to see if he could eliminate such a powerful assassin head-on, but he didn’t have the time to waste . There were more important things to do here .
That assassin didn’t stop Long Chen from leaving . With a snort, he vanished into thin air . His movement art was inexplicable . There was no way to track him .
Ignoring that so-called divine emissary of the Killing God, Long Chen rushed toward the mountain range . More Magical Beast roars could be heard from within .
They were clearly there to defend this place, but the people that had entered were all crazy with greed . These mountains had countless precious medicines growing on them .
Someone plucked a fruit and ate it . It instantly dissolved, transforming into blood-colored runes that covered his body . Spiritual qi surged toward him crazily, causing his expression to change . He punched himself in the chest, coughing up a mouthful of blood .
The runes on his body faded . However, he was delighted . This fruit was actually able to allow someone to rapidly advance .
However, this place was the Yin Yang World, and he was already at the peak of Soul Transformation . He couldn’t make his breakthrough here, so he had to forcibly interrupt that fruit’s effect .
Seeing the people ahead obtain such priceless treasures, everyone was going crazy . They even ignored the terrifying twelfth rank Magical Beasts, charging deeper into the mountain range .
Long Chen reached out and grabbed an unremarkable little tree growing out of the cliffside . He also didn’t know its name, but his intuition said it was a treasure .
He had just gathered it when he saw a python swing its tail like a whip, blowing apart a powerful Empyrean .
This dangerous region meant a few unlucky people would be targeted by the twelfth rank Magical Beasts . Even Empyreans with awakening manifestations and divine items were only able to endure one or two attacks at most before being killed .
After killing that person, the python suddenly shot toward Long Chen .
“Fuck, all I did was look at you!” Long Chen turned and fled . His lightning wings were in full force, and he had no intention of foolishly fighting a twelfth rank Magical Beast directly .
The python opened its mouth, shooting out a black runic sword at Long Chen . The huge sword was incredibly powerful, but Long Chen activated the Celestial Lightning Body Blink, vanishing and reappearing at the bottom of a distant mountain . He immediately concealed his aura .
The runic sword missed . The python lost its target and switched to another direction . Several experts there changed their expressions and immediately fled .
Long Chen stealthily climbed the mountain, looking into the distance . He quickly saw Chu Yao’s figure, but she was very low-key . She was covered in green mist so others couldn’t see her clearly . She was silently profiting .
“Is that place the core of this world?”
Long Chen suddenly noticed a pillar of light in the distance . He sensed the air of primal chaos within it . Black and white runes interwove there, causing the world to shake .
Within that pillar of light, he could vaguely see a mountain . There was some kind of vegetation growing atop the mountain, one that looked like a flower or a grass but was neither .
That vegetation was hundreds of meters tall . It had long leaves falling from it . Each leaf was split evenly in the middle with half being black and half being white . The black was the blackest black, while the white was the purest white .
Between the black and white leaves was a large pole . It was covered in black and white marks .
At the top of the pole was a sphere several meters thick . It was like a fruit, but this fruit was translucent, and it was sometimes black as night and sometimes white as jade .
When it was black, a burst of death energy would surge out, raising people’s hair .
When it was white, endless life energy would nourish the world, filling it with peace .
Intertwining black and white, alternating Yin and Yang, it was like the world’s Daos were contained within its transformations .
“Heavens, that’s definitely a legendary Yin Yang Immortal Grass!” shouted someone .
Yin Yang Immortal Grass . That was something said to be an undying divine medicine that could make a person rise from the dead, transcend reincarnation, and live forever, gaining a lifespan as long as the heavens .
However, no one had ever seen it . It was only found in stories and myths . Even any details about it were very vague .
Nevertheless, all those legends had one common point: the Yin Yang Immortal Grass possessed alternating Yin Yang energy that could topple the world .
If anyone could obtain it, they could control the cycle of life and death, becoming the ruler of a world .
Of course, as soon as someone shouted the name of the Yin Yang Immortal Grass, everyone’s eyes became crazy with greed . That was something that contained the power to control the world, and whoever possessed it could dominate everyone else .
Even Long Chen was unable to stay calm . This strange plant truly did look similar to the Yin Yang Immortal Grass of legends .
“Charge!”
People roared, charging straight toward that pillar of light, not even bothering to search through the mountains any longer .
“Long Chen, Ruyan said that there’s something within the light pillar that she needs . ” Chu Yao’s voice rang out in Long Chen’s head .
“She wants the Yin Yang Immortal Grass?”
“No, there’s a divine pool beneath it . That place is where all the essence is gathered,” said Chu Yao .
Long Chen looked carefully . Only now did he notice that the Yin Yang Immortal Grass had taken root in a divine pool .
The divine pool was turbid with the air of primal chaos . It had strange fluctuations . This was definitely a place set up to nourish the Yin Yang Immortal Grass .
“Should we charge in?” asked Chu Yao .
“No, things aren’t so simple . I keep feeling like something is off . We should be more cautious than these people,” warned Long Chen . This place was too strange . He was feeling a vague sense of unease .
Just at this moment, the first Empyrean managed to reach the pillar of light . He slashed his divine item into it .
A slight ripple came from the pillar of light . Black qi surged out of the ripple .
“Get back!” One of his friends shouted at him .
However, it was too late . His divine item instantly turned black, following which his entire body also turned black . Then, he slowly dissipated like dust . Even his divine item blew away in pieces .
