Rumble ~ ~ ~
Ye Chen's heart seemed to stop beating. All the blood in his body flowed in reverse. Accompanied by a loud explosion, the figure that floated like a white butterfly trembled slightly. Her pure white wrist loosened its grip on the divine sword, and the divine sword was sent flying. The remaining force of the attack landed on her body, and she slammed heavily into the wall of the pagoda.
The monster was bleeding from its seven orifices. Its crimson eyes and mouth spat out blood. Blood seeped out of its scales and its four hooves. The anger that came from the depths of hell in its heart erupted like a raging flame. Its entire body shot out like an arrow towards the white-robed figure.
A breeze blew gently.
From the cold and dark pagoda door, a savage and violent aura suddenly erupted. It carried with it an earth-shattering violence. It was as if a primordial beast had stepped in with its ancient footsteps.
A bright golden figure, like a divine brush, shot out from outside the door. With unparalleled speed, it rushed over and caught Bai Yijun gently. Then, it pushed off the wall with the tip of its foot and rushed madly out of the door.
In the raging wind, there seemed to be an inexplicable roar of rage.
The Demonic Beast's crimson eyes were bloodshot. Its body was like a swimming dragon as it opened its bloody maw and bit at Ye Chen. With its size, its jaws could swallow one or two elephants. Just as Ye Chen and Bai Yijun were about to be crushed by its steel teeth, Bai Yijun, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, suddenly raised his wrist and threw out a talisman!
Freeze!
As soon as the talisman appeared, it exploded with a brilliant divine power. The mysterious runes on it flew off the paper and formed a large "freeze" character in mid-air!
The monster that had been roaring savagely suddenly stopped. Its entire body seemed to be wrapped by an invisible divine power. It stopped in mid-air, and the space around it seemed to come to a standstill.
In that moment of pause, Ye Chen had already escaped from its mouth like a streak of white light. He rushed out of the pagoda door and towards the eighth floor.
The "freeze" talisman only caused the monster to stop for 0.1 seconds. Then, it struggled free. However, at this time, Ye Chen had already disappeared. It roared and rushed out of the door.
Hualala ~
The black shackles tied to its body were pulled taut. The other end was tied to the wall and nailed to it with two large black iron nails. It could not be pulled away.
The Demonic Beast was only able to rush to the entrance, and when it was still ten feet away from the black door, it was unable to take another step forward!
"Roar, roar, roar, roar …" The demonic beast roared towards the sky. Its voice was mournful and unwilling, and it was filled with monstrous resentment and savagery.
It struggled for a moment, but it was unable to break free from the chains. The chains passed through its body and wrapped around its bones. Under the forceful tug, intense pain spread throughout its body.
With a low roar, it raised its two front hooves heavily and slammed them onto the ground, causing the entire Black Tower to shake slightly.
After venting, it slowly crawled back and disappeared into the darkness …
Dark Tower, eighth floor.
Ye Chen hugged Bai Yijun and stopped in the depths of the eighth floor. The flames on the Divine Flame Armor lit up the surroundings. He looked down and saw that Bai Yijun's face was as pale as paper. There was not a single trace of blood on her face. There was blood at the corner of her mouth, and there were a few red spots on her snow-white clothes. It was a shocking sight.
Ye Chen clenched his fists and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"
Bai Yijun's eyes were filled with exhaustion. She raised her head and looked at him. Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on her face, causing the dark corners around them to brighten. "You saved me again."
Ye Chen furrowed his brows slightly and remained silent.
Bai Yijun slowly retracted her gaze and sat up in his arms. With a tap of her finger, she took out some pills from her Foldable Space Bag and swallowed them. A moment later, her face regained a bit of color.
"This Demonic Beast has reached Middle Semi-Divinity realm!"
Bai Yijun sat down cross-legged and said in a low voice, "I used the Heaven Trampling Song and used up all of my divine energy. I also lost a hundred years of my lifespan. That was more than enough to deal with a Elementary Semi-Divinity realm Demonic Beast. However, it was only severely injured. Its life was not in danger."
Ye Chen looked at her and remained silent for a moment. Then, he said, "You should recover your energy first. It won't be too late to go after you recover. There's no rush …"
"No!" Bai Yijun interrupted him and stared at him. "I promised to bring you out!"
Her resolute voice was like a pebble that was slowly being hammered into Ye Chen's heart, causing ripples to appear in his heart …
The silence of the Dark Tower seemed to have become a little gentler.
Ye Chen was silent for a moment. Then, he suddenly smiled and said, "So what if we get out?
At most, we'll only meet once. I can feel that the virus in my body will break out in another seven days. There's no rush. "
Bai Yijun looked at him quietly, then slowly lowered her head and said, "No matter what, I will let you out!" Her soft voice was filled with determination and stubbornness.
Ye Chen was speechless, so he did not say anything.
Bai Yijun closed her eyes and cultivated for a moment. Her aura recovered slightly. She opened her eyes and frowned slightly. There was a hint of worry in her clear eyes. "I left the White Snow Divine Sword on the ninth floor. That Demonic Beast is quite intelligent, so it will definitely hide somewhere. I still have some high-grade Semi-Divinity artifacts with me, but none of them can compare to the White Snow Divine Sword.
Ye Chen nodded and said, "Your White Snow Divine Sword should be a top grade Semi-Divinity artifact. In terms of power, it's comparable to a low-grade Pseudo-Divinity artifact!"
Bai Yijun frowned and thought hard. She said, "The White Snow Divine Sword has Pseudo-Divinity power. Only by using it can I hurt that Demonic Beast. Otherwise, with my Semi-Divinity power, I'll be like a mouse in front of a cat. Only by using 100 points of Semi-Divinity power can I match one point of Pseudo-Divinity power!"
Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Why don't I lure that Demonic Beast away, and you go inside to find the White Snow Divine Sword?"
Bai Yijun rolled her eyes at him and said, "You can't move as fast as it even if you activate your superhuman mode. It's useless. If it wasn't for the fact that it used up too much energy in the fight with me, it would only need to send out a beam of Divine Sword to kill you."
Ye Chen was speechless. "You're too direct …"
Bai Yijun covered her mouth and chuckled, adding a bit of beauty to the dark light.
Ye Chen looked at her and his eyes flickered. He said slowly, "Take a rest first. We'll think of a way later."
Bai Yijun nodded. She took out some medicine from her Foldable Space Bag and swallowed it. Then, she sat cross-legged and began to heal her internal injuries.
In the blink of an eye, a day passed …
Bai Yijun opened her eyes and found that Ye Chen was motionless in front of her. His expression was serious, and he was frowning in deep thought. Perhaps he was too engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't even notice that she had woken up.
As she looked at him, the corner of her mouth suddenly curved into a charming smile. Her eyes softened, and with a bit of gentleness, she rested her chin on her hand and stared at Ye Chen.
At this moment, in Ye Chen's mind, there was a different scene. All kinds of thoughts appeared in his mind, but they were all rejected.
"With that monster beast's physique, it definitely won't be able to recover in a short period of time without any miracle medicine. It won't be able to erupt with such a powerful combat strength. If I had the White Snow Divine Sword, with Bai Yijun's strength, I would be able to kill this monster beast!"
"However, with this monster beast's intelligence, it must have hidden the White Snow Divine Sword in an extremely secretive location."
"If it were me, where would I hide it?"
Ye Chen thought hard. After a moment, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "If it were me, I would definitely hide it where I slept. I would place it where I lay down to prevent others from stealing it."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen became excited. Suddenly, he sensed something and turned his head. A pair of clear and bright eyes came into view. They were gentle and warm as they embraced him …
At this moment, all sound suddenly disappeared.
Bai Yijun saw that Ye Chen had woken up, but she didn't panic. Their eyes met, and she didn't retreat.
The two of them silently looked at each other.
After a long time …
Ye Chen was the first to wake up. He touched his nose and said, "I just thought of something. Your White Snow Divine Sword must be hidden under that monster's body. As long as we lure it away, we can get the White Snow Divine Sword."
Bai Yijun wasn't surprised. She still had a gentle smile on her face and said, "I know."
Ye Chen was startled and said, "You know?"
Bai Yijun gazed at him and said softly, "When I left, I saw the White Snow Divine Sword lying there. With that monster's logic, it must be ready and placed under its body."
Ye Chen quickly said, "Then do you know how to lure it away?"
Bai Yijun furrowed her brows and withdrew her gaze from his face. She nodded and said, "There is a way. I have ten Demigod Level Invisibility Talismans. They are products of the Cultivation Civilization and the Fu Civilization Civilization. They have been processed with extreme precision. Once they are activated, they will form many small transparent black holes that will hide your aura into the pores of your skin. Furthermore, through the study of space folding, your body will be in a transparent state. Even if the opponent uses their divine power to investigate, they will not be able to see you."
Ye Chen knew about these things, but he didn't expect that she would have them with her. He said happily, "That's easy. I will lure the monster away, and you take the opportunity to get the divine sword!"
Bai Yijun shook her head and said, "These are only Demigod Realm Talismans. I need to fuse them into the False God Realm. Otherwise, the monster will see through it."
Ye Chen shook his head and smiled, "I forgot. How long will it take for you to merge first?"
Bai Yijun frowned and said, "Three days if it's fast, five days if it's slow."
"Five days …" Ye Chen muttered and said, "I can hold on."
Bai Yijun looked at him and didn't say anything else. She took out the ten pale gold talismans from the Foldable Space Bag and then a purple-gold talisman. She whispered, "Refine!"
The purple-gold talisman turned into a ball of light and wrapped around the ten talismans, refining them …
The two of them sat at the side and waited quietly.
Time passed slowly.
On the second day, Ye Chen's forehead was covered in sweat and his body was shaking. A black aura covered his face and his whole body was curled up.
