Legend of Swordsman - Chapter 4825
4825 Dream-Eating Tapir Devouring Spirits
Then, he seemed to have thought of something and asked, “By the way, I’m a little curious. What did Yin Ling take from you?”
“Prince Jiu gave me the Golden Seal. After she took it, she used it to open the way to the Great Mi Heaven.
Jian Wushuang nodded. If what she said was true, then it was very likely that Yin Ling had not left them after the destruction of the Northern Heaven Celestial Prefecture. Instead, she had been following them and hiding in the dark, waiting for a certain opportunity.
However, what Jian Wushuang couldn’t figure out was how Yin Ling could guess that the heroic woman was sent by the Great Mi Heaven and then take the Golden Seal to the Great Mi Heaven.
“By the way, do you have any connection with the group of Yan Immortal who were selling black mountain crystals in the Northern Heaven Celestial Prefecture?”
The heroic-looking woman said coldly, “I can’t tell you anything about what happened before.”
Jian Wushuang continued, “Also, how should I address you?”
“Zhao Ting.”
…
As soon as he stepped into the North Sky Heavenly Region, an ancient and desolate aura greeted him. At the same time, there was an invisible force pulling and devouring the Yan power around him.
The tombs were as quiet as mountains, stretching into the distance that could not be seen.
Rather than saying that these Immortal tombs were built in the North Sky Heavenly Region, it would be better to say that the North Sky Heavenly Region was completely made up of Immortal tombs.
As the tombs that had existed since ancient times were extremely dense, there was almost no space for them to land on. Hence, Jian Wushuang and the others flew at a low altitude above the North Sky Heavenly Region and advanced slowly.
Although the masters within each Immortal tomb had died, the former Yan power still existed. Although they were dying in an irreversible way, they were still strong today.
Moreover, the almighties in these Immortal tombs were at least Yan Immortal, and there were many existences at the level of Grand Yan Immortal.
No one spoke. Everyone raised their Yan power to the peak, already prepared for all the possible situations that might occur.
Xi Qingchi followed Jian Wushuang closely. Whether it was intentional or not, it forced the heroic-looking woman, Zhao Ting, to make way for her.
The little beast in her arms seemed extremely excited, as if it was very interested in the dense aura in the Immortal graveyard, and kept sniffing.
“San Qing, you better behave yourself. If you continue, I’ll throw you down,” Xi Qingchi threatened in a low voice.
Little beast restrained itself a little when it heard her words, but it was still restless in her arms.
Jian Wushuang looked at the small beast in her arms and asked, “What’s the use of this small beast?”
Xi Qingchi nodded. “I picked up San Qing in the deep mountains when I was young. It’s a Dream-Eating Tapir that can swallow bad nightmares and dispel bad luck. Therefore, I have always carried it with me. It will bring me good luck.”
Jian Wushuang nodded and continued to fly forward.
The entire North Sky Heavenly Region could be considered as one of the larger Heavenly Regions in the Great Mi Heaven and it would take a long time to cross it.
And the danger that Zhao Ting mentioned should be the chaotic Yan force that was surging in the Immortal graveyard.
As they continued to move forward, the nightmare tapir in his arms became even more restless. There was only excitement in its clear eyes.
At the next moment, the little beast suddenly jumped out of the body of Xi Qingchi. Like a fish, it plunged into the group of Immortal tombs below with great speed and ferocity.
“San Qing!” Xi Qingchi was shocked.
Jian Wushuang also saw this unusual scene. He waved his arm and the Yan power radiance shot out.
Thousands of rays of the Yan power fell like a knot. The tapir turned its head around, opened its mouth, and swallowed all the Yan power’s brilliance into its stomach. Then, it plunged into the group of Immortal tombs without stopping.
Jian Wushuang frowned and had a bad feeling.
The Dream-Eating Tapir that landed in the group of Immortal tombs screeched at the sky and raised its four claws before it started to fly.
The surrounding Yan power, which was already in an extremely chaotic state, went berserk and instantly triggered the entire North Sky Heavenly Region.
“Damn thing, I’m going to skin it alive!” Di Qing was furious, and he raised his palm to release Yan power.
“No, you can’t,” Jian Wushuang lowered his voice and stopped him from using Yan power, which was about to leave his hand. “You can’t do anything. The aura here is not right.”
As if to confirm his words, the entire North Sky Heavenly Region’s ownerless Yan power was completely chaotic and violent.
As the initiator, the Dream-Eating Tapir was devouring some unknown aura while it was running.
Pitch-black patterns began to appear on its snow-white body, and its body, which was originally as long as an arm, grew to more than a hundred feet in size.
It was devouring spirit!
Although those ancient mighty figures were in a deep sleep and the Immortal Source was broken, their Dao and aura would not dissipate so easily. They would only dissipate in the long years and eventually return to the heaven domain.
The Dream-Eating Tapir was devouring the ownerless Dao to strengthen itself.
Zhao Ting was equally shocked. With such a disturbance happening in the originally silent North Sky Heavenly Region, Prince Jiu would definitely notice it. Once they were discovered, it would be difficult for them to escape!
“Let’s go quickly. I’m afraid that Prince Jiu will soon find out about the turmoil here,” Zhao Ting urged.
“I’ll go and capture San Qing.” Xi Qingchi was already shocked out of her wits.
Jian Wushuang frowned and looked at the Dream-Eating Tapir that was still devouring spirits.
…
Almost at the same time, in the middle state of Great Mi Heaven.
On the celestial platform that was situated above the clouds, a lazy figure dressed in a white robe quietly opened his eyes and looked toward the North.
He was the Second Prince of Zhen Wuyang, Prince Jiu.
Very quickly, several figures with powerful auras ascended the celestial platform.
“Your Highness, there’s a commotion coming from the North Sky Heavenly Region, I’m afraid …
“Afraid of what? Can the dead come back to life?” Prince Jiu did not even lift his eyelids. “You don’t have to report the North Sky Heavenly Region’s matter. You may leave.”
“Yes,” the shadows replied and then retreated.
“By the way, send Yin Ling over. I want to see her.”
…
The palm came down, and the unparalleled Yan power almost bound the Dream-Eating Tapir, but it still managed to escape.
Jian Wushuang had obviously lost his patience and started to prepare to kill it.
The Dream-Eating Tapir was greedy. Its stomach was like a bottomless pit. It was devouring the spirits even when it was running for its life.
As it devoured, its body underwent a huge change.
Especially its eyes. Below its original eyes, there were two cracks, and a pair of eyes had grown out. It looked extremely strange.
Jian Wushuang and Di Qing joined forces to kill it. The overwhelming attacks gradually forced it into a dead end.
However, at this moment, something happened. The Dream-Eating Tapir that was running away seemed to have hit a transparent barrier. It stopped for a moment before it fell to the ground and wailed.
