Even the First Level Crystal Formation Realm Tian Yu's combat strength was much stronger than theirs. So the first ones to pull back were them.
Du Cheng did not hesitate much and directly stuffed the medicinal pill into Pang Wannian's mouth.
When the medicinal pill entered his stomach, Du Cheng discovered that Pang Wannian's injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye!
It was even faster than the recovery speed of those Bloodthirsty Skywolfs!
And Pang Wannian's complexion became a little rosier before long.
Du Cheng was unbelievably dumbfounded in his heart. What medicinal pill is this, to actually have such effects?!
Du Cheng was very clear on what effects the sect's Tier 3 medicinal pills had.
Comparing to this pill from Ye Yuan, it was simply trash!
Recalling again to the detoxification pills that Ye Yuan took out, the effects were similarly much better than the sect ones.
Could these medicinal pills all be refined by Ye Yuan himself? But he was only at the Spirit Condensation Realm!
For a while, Du Cheng's mind ran wild.
Right at this time, he heard a splat, interrupting his thoughts.
That sound came from over Ye Yuan's side!
Du Cheng looked over towards Ye Yuan's side and saw a headless wolf corpse lying on the ground, while Ye Yuan had already put away Canghua Sword since god knows when.
Right then, another wolf dashed towards Ye Yuan with extreme speed.
Only to see Ye Yuan dodge slightly and lightly tap a finger on the wolf's head.
Without any unnecessary actions, that Bloodthirsty Skywolf scurried back.
The next instant, Du Cheng's pupils constricted!
When that Bloodthirsty Skywolf landed on the ground, its head exploded with a bang.
Another headless wolf corpse!
Following that, he saw Ye Yuan's profile shuttling back and forth within the wolf pack like a ghost, landing finger after finger on the Bloodthirsty Skywolves' heads.
Each finger Ye Yuan unleashed, a Bloodthirsty Skywolf would fall.
In a blink of an eye, there were already over a dozen Bloodthirsty Skywolves that died in Ye Yuan's hands!
At this moment, it was as if Ye Yuan had become the incarnation of a god that descended upon the world. His might was without equal!
Originally, those frenzied Bloodthirsty Skywolves did not fear death and were completely unaware of what being frightened was.
But now, those Bloodthirsty Skywolves actually took the initiative to back away from the areas that Ye Yuan passed through!
They were scared!
But this sort of avoidance was futile. The areas that Ye Yuan passed through would surely leave behind one or two Bloodthirsty Skywolf carcasses.
"En? What's going on?"
Mo Yuntian suddenly felt the pressure around him lighten. Initially, the frenzied Bloodthirsty Skywolves that were everywhere pressured him until he felt suffocated. But now, it suddenly lessened by quite a bit.
There were Ti Wujiu and Tian Yu who also had the same feeling. They all noticed that the Bloodthirsty Skywolves seemed to be afraid of something.
Now that their pressure reduced right now, they had spare energy to observe the other areas.
It was alright if they did not look. But one look and they jumped in fright.
The areas that Ye Yuan passed through left behind wolf carcasses everywhere!
The Eight Gates Gold Lock Formation had already automatically dissolved following Ye Yuan's departure.
And each of Ye Yuan's steps was heading over in the Bloodthirsty Wolf King's direction!
Those Bloodthirsty Skywolves no longer dared to go forward to provoke Ye Yuan anymore. But even so, their companions still died one after another.
The Bloodthirsty Wolf King had already forced Mei Zhen into a desperate situation over on this side. Mei Zhen was covered in injuries right now, looking rather ghastly.
Right then, the Bloodthirsty Wolf King seemed to have detected a thick animosity, and its movements also became sluggish.
Seeing Ye Yuan who was walking towards it composedly, the Bloodthirsty Wolf King's pupils shrunk. Forcing Mei Zhen back with one claw, it turned towards the direction where Ye Yuan was currently approaching him in.
As Ye Yuan walked, he slaughtered the wolf king's progenies.
The originally wild and fearless Bloodthirsty Skywolves were like paper paste in Ye Yuan's hands!
The Bloodthirsty Wolf King's eyes became blood-red when it saw its clansmen being massacred. An incomparably powerful aura surged towards Ye Yuan.
But Ye Yuan continued walking step by step towards it as if he could not feel it.
The Wolf King actually had yet to enter the frenzied state from battling Mei Zhen until now!
Mei Zhen was very fretful seeing the situation and shouted loudly, "Ye Yuan, quickly move aside! The Wolf King is entering frenzied state!"
But it was like Ye Yuan did not hear it. He moved closer and closer to the Wolf King.
Everybody's hearts leaped to their throats. The Wolf King's aura was too horrendous.
The Wolf King without entering frenzied state could force Mei Zhen until he did not have the strength to retaliate. His strength after the frenzy transformation was totally not what the people present could withstand!
But just as Ye Yuan was around ten steps from the Wolf King, a scene that nobody dared to believe occurred.
That Bloodthirsty Wolf King actually took a step back!
Ye Yuan casually finished off a Bloodthirsty Skywolves and took another step forward.
The Wolf King backed up another step again!
The Wolf King was actually afraid!
Ye Yuan currently had a composed look without joy nor sorrow, looking just like a person who was harmless to humans and animals.
But the incomparably powerful Wolf King was actually fearful of him!
Ye Yuan advanced. The Wolf King retreated again!
The Wolf King's eyes stared fixedly at Ye Yuan. Even humans could see the fury within it. But he just did not dare to attack,
Ye Yuan advanced. The Wolf King retreated once more!
This time, Ye Yuan did not move. He just met eyes with the Wolf King like this, his expression calm and collected.
The Wolf King only faced off with Ye Yuan for several breaths of time. Finally, it could not endure it and let out a long howl, then turned around and ran.
With the Wolf King's departure, the remaining Bloodthirsty Skywolfs naturally would not stay on anymore. They left the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples behind and also fleed.
In a twinkle of an eye, the Bloodthirsty Skywolves that originally had powerful auras vanished to the ends of the grass plains.
The Purple Mansion Sect disciples looked at the corpse-strewn ground and looked at Ye Yuan again, their eyes showing fear.
This person clearly only had Spirit Condensation Realm cultivation, but even the Bloodthirsty Wolf King did not dare to clash with him!
He forced the Bloodthirsty Wolf King back with one glance!
Such a battle result was too inconceivable!
"Ye Yuan, you're really amazing! How did you do it?" Tian Yu asked Ye Yuan excitedly.
But Ye Yuan did not reply him.
Mo Yuntian suddenly noticed that something was not quite right. He walked up and patted Ye Yuan's shoulder, asking, "You alright, Ye Yuan?"
But what he did not expect was that Ye Yuan fell stiffly backward just like that.
Mo Yuntian was alarmed and hurriedly went to support Ye Yuan.
Chapter 311. Soul Jade! |
"Ye Yuan!"
"YE YUAN!"
"Are you okay, Ye Yuan?"
Seeing Ye Yuan collapse suddenly, the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples were taken aback and quickly surrounded him.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Mo, what happened to Ye Yuan? Is there any problem?" Tian Yu asked urgently.
Mo Yuntian waved his hands to indicate to him not spe
ak and reached for Ye Yuan's pulse.
After a long time, Mo Yuntian finally heaved a sigh in relief and said, "Shouldn't be a major problem."
Hearing Mo Yuntian said so, everyone also let out a sigh in relief.
"Since he's alright, then why is Ye Yuan unconscious?"
The one asking was Pang Wannian. He ate Ye Yuan's medicinal pill, and currently, his external injuries were mostly recovered already. It was just that that arm would not come back.
Seeing Ye Yuan fall unconscious, he was also extremely worried.
Previously, being together with Ye Yuan was fellow sect member relationship. But from today onwards, they were friends in adversity.
Friendships that were tested through life and death could withstand ordeals better!
Just now, Du Cheng roughly summarized what happened earlier. Pang Wannian had a feeling that Ye Yuan only erupted abruptly because of him.
This could not help but move him.
Mo Yuntian said to everybody, "Ye Yuan he used the Tier 3 strength of the Cleansing Sandal Sacred Flame earlier, which exceeded the limits that his meridians could withstand. Just now when dealing with those Bloodthirsty Skywolves, Ye Yuan's meridians were suffering the agony of being immolated the whole time. He actually endured it without showing the slightest trace!"
Hearing Mo Yuntian said so, all of them were visibly moved.
As martial artists, how could they not know the torment of meridians being burnt?
That sort of anguish was something unimaginable by ordinary people.
Even someone with remarkable willpower might not be able to endure it under the agony of meridians being immolated!
Immolation of meridians, one could not faint even if they wanted to!
Because even if they fainted, they would also wake up immediately from pain!
But how did that nonchalant expression of Ye Yuan's look like suffering the anguish of meridian immolation?
Just now, Ye Yuan was like a fiendgod that had descended upon the world. That sort of overweening aura even shocked the peak Tier 3 Bloodthirsty Wolf King into retreating.
The Ye Yuan under such a state was actually enduring the immolation of meridians the entire time?
"Hiss . . . That's also to say that Ye Yuan sang an empty city stratagem just now. Actually, he could no longer resist the Wolf King anymore earlier. He was just using strategy to scare him away?" Tian Yu asked in amazement.
"Do you think that the Wolf King is so easy to deceive? That Wolf King's intellect is completely not beneath humans. It might even be far more cunning than some humans. How could it be easy to want to fool it? When Ye Yuan was butchering the wolf pack earlier, he condensed his momentum to the limits. Even if the Wolf King entered a frenzied state, it would not dare to easily confront Ye Yuan. That's why it chose to withdraw!" Mei Zhen consumed some healing medicinal pills and also recovered a little before saying this.
Mo Yuntian nodded and said, "I have a feeling that even if the Wolf King really went for it just now, it might not be able to gain any advantages! Otherwise, how could that Wolf King retreat so easily given its immense intellect?"
This conjecture from Mo Yuntian made everyone suck in a deep breath instead.
Ye Yuan's might had truly surpassed everyone's understanding.
Even the Wolf King that Mei Zhen this Sea Transformation Realm expert was helpless against was scared into retreating by Ye Yuan. This was an absolutely heaven-defying battle result.
"Then . . . will Ye Yuan be alright?" Pang Wannian asked concernedly.
Mo Yuntian said, "Don't worry. Although his injuries are heavy, there is no threat to his life. After he regains consciousness, I think he'll have ways to treat himself."
Only then did they breathed a sigh of relief.
Mei Zhen said, "Since that's the case, find a place to rest for a while and wait for Ye Yuan to wake up before making a decision."
. . . . . .
Bright moon and few stars, there were many blurry outlines under the shadow of a tree.
Ye Yuan slowly opened both eyes. When he saw Pang Wannian's familiar face, he forced a smile and said, "S-Senior Apprentice Brother Pang, are you alright?"
Pang Wannian was overjoyed at first. When he heard finish Ye Yuan's words, tears flowed instantly. "I'm alright, alright! It's great that you woke up! You worried us to death! Elder Mei, Senior Apprentice Brother Mo, Junior Apprentice Brother Ye woke up!"
Everybody hurriedly surrounded over when they heard that, all trying to get in a word of concern.
Sensing the worry from his fellow disciples, Ye Yuan felt a burst of emotion in his heart.
"How long was I out?" Ye Yuan asked.
"You were already unconscious for a day and two nights! Ye Yuan, are your meridians . . . okay?" Pang Wannian asked hurriedly.
Ye Yuan shook his head, "Nothing major. Senior Apprentice Brother Pang, I'll have to trouble you to support me up."
Pang Wannian quickly used his remaining arm to lift Ye Yuan up. Ye Yuan retrieved a medicinal pill from his storage ring and started to regulate his breathing.
At this time, the Tranquil Cloud Sect people spontaneously circled around him to protect him.
While the Purple Mansion Sect's remaining four disciples were not far away the whole time, Lin Chao's gaze pierced through the crowd to look at Ye Yuan. Nobody knew what he was thinking of either.
After an hour, Ye Yuan refined finish the medicinal pill. His complexion overall looked much better.
Meridian injuries were a very troublesome matter. Under ordinary circumstances, even if there were assistance from medicinal pills, it was very hard to fully recover without several months of recovery and recuperation.
But look at Ye Yuan's present appearance, he seemed to have already recovered 60% - 70%.
Furthermore, in such a short time, there was normally no way to fully refine the medicinal pill. That was also to say that he might recover as good as new very soon as the remaining 30% - 40% of medicinal pill continued to be refined inside Ye Yuan's body!
Such a heaven-defying medicinal pill was simply unheard of before.
Towards such a situation, the Tranquil Cloud Sect group were already numb to it and did not have too big a reaction.
But the Purple Mansion Sect people apparently found it very shocking. Other than Lin Chao, the other three were furtively whispering together.
Ye Yuan got up but walked straight for Lin Chao.
Lin Chao seemed to know that Ye Yuan would find him straight away and did not look too surprised.
"Junior Apprentice Brother Ye overturned the raging tides yesterday and saved the lives of the four of us. Lin Chao is deeply grateful!" Lin Chao bowed deeply towards Ye Yuan, looking rather sincere.
Ye Yuan accepted it calmly, but said, "Senior Apprentice Brother Lin, don't you owe me an explanation?"
Lin Chao was shaken inwardly, but had a confused look as he said, "Explanation? Junior Apprentice Brother Ye refers to?"
Ye Yuan sighed lightly and said, "Looks like Senior Apprentice Brother Lin refuses to give in. Must I lay it bare?"
Lin Chao shook his head and said, "I really don't know what Senior Apprentice Brother Ye needs me to explain. Are you referring to the matter of deliberately dragging your honorable sect into the water? I've already apologized to Elder Mei and Senior Apprentice Brother Pang about this matter and compensated some natural treasures obtained during this trap as recompense. At that time, we were also at a life and death juncture and had no other alternatives but that. I hope that Junior Apprentice Brother Ye won't take offense."
Ye Yuan smiled slightly and opened his mouth and said, "Although a Bloodthirsty Skywolf's natural disposition is savage, it has a particular trait, and that is they are very prudent and will not leave their own territory without special circumstances! And the owner of this region is a Nine Serene Ice Lion. They chased you all the way here surely because you guys did something. Well, let me guess. Is it . . . soul jade?"
Chapter
312. Demanding an Exorbitant Price |
Hearing the two words 'soul jade,' Lin Chao's face changed all of a sudden.
But he remained stubborn as he said, "Haha, Junior Apprentice Brother Ye, I don't know what's the meaning of what you said. What soul jade?"
Ye Yuan suddenly put away his smile and said frostily, "Is Senior Apprentice Brother Lin trying to use us as a shield then run off after getting benefits yourself? Originally, you guys obtaining any benefits has nothing to do with us. Even if I knew that you people obtained soul jades, I wouldn't expose it either. It's just that your scheming made us fall into a perilous situation and my Senior Apprentice Brother Pang nearly lost his life right there and then. You don't think it's over just like this, right?"
The Tranquil Cloud Sect people were rather bewildered and did not know why Ye Yuan and Lin Chao were arguing.
When Ye Yuan was unconscious, Lin Chao already showed his attitude adequately to Mei Zhen and Pang Wannian and apologized profusely, finally earning their understanding.
After all, the Purple Mansion Sect group lost more than half of their people, leaving only four guys.
Substituting anyone into that kind of situation, they would most likely choose to drag others into the water too.
Plus, Lin Chao and the rest paid large amounts of natural treasures before the Tranquil Cloud Sect group finally agreed not to dispute anymore.
But they did not imagine that the first thing Ye Yuan did after waking up was to find Lin Chao's trouble.
"Ye Yuan, what's the soul jade you're talking about? If it's some inconsequential thing, then just forget about it," Mo Yuntian enquired.
"Yeah, Ye Yuan. When you were out cold, Lin Chao already compensated us three stalks of Tier 4 medicinal herbs, ten stalks of Quasi-Tier 4 herbs, and many Tier 3 herbs. It's more than enough to show his sincerity," Mei Zhen also added on.
These things naturally could not bring back Pang Wannian's arm, but it was already done. Even killing the four of them would not help the situation.
Not that the Tranquil Cloud Sect disciples were goodie two shoes, but because the other party had Lin Chao this Eighth Level Crystal Formation Realm present.
Under the situation where Mei Zhen was injured, if he were bent on breaking out of the encirclement, it would also be very tough for the Tranquil Cloud Sect to make everyone stay.
