Chapter 234: Escape from Demise

The wound on Ye Chen’s face was initially a deep blood red but it instantly turned black. It was as if it had been painted with some form of corrosive material as white smoke sprouted out from the wound.

Was the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture’s talon poisonous?

Ye Chen shuddered. He invoked the Flying Dagger’s wave of Celestial Chi to envelop his cheeks. He had realized that the wound that the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture left on his cheeks was not poisonous. Instead, it was some form of strange ancient energy where it was able to corrode human flesh!

The Celestial Chi from the Flying Dagger had enveloped the strange ancient energy and quickly consumed it.

Fortunately, Ye Chen had special Celestial Chi in him. Otherwise, this wound would be lethal even to a Heavenly Venerable Rank fighter.

It was at this moment when another Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture had swooped down.

Dong dong dong!

A burst of crackling rang from the punches that Little Wingsy threw at the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures, blasting them away. Little Wingsy had faced four Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures by himself. Although he was not able to destroy the beasts, he could at least strike them back.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, go!” Little Wingsy hurriedly called out as he received a few blows. Fortunately, his body was resilient and would not be wounded so easily.

Ye Chen saw another Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture about to leap on him. He moved his right hand and materialized the Celestial Flying Dagger in his palm.

Whoosh!

The Celestial Flying Dagger struck forward like a bolt of lightning toward the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture.

The Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture had noticed the Celestial Flying Dagger but it made no effort to dodge. It only extended its paws out toward the dagger.

Thump!

The Celestial Flying Dagger pierced through its paw. It did not stop there. With another thump, it had pierced right through the beast’s body.

Hiss!

The Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture shrieked. It hung in mid-air for a moment before parts of its body crumbled into pieces and fell onto the ground.

Right then, Ye Chen made another leap and jumped forward several meters. He was finally able to damage the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures! Ye Chen had thought that these Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were truly invulnerable.

After the momentary pause, the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture shrieked sharply. Again, it charged toward Ye Chen along with several other sculptures.

The extremely sharp Celestial Flying Dagger was able to pierce through their bodies, but it still could not kill them since they were just lifeless sculptures!

Whoosh. Following the call of the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture, the other four sculptures gave up on Little Wingsy. They rushed forward in pursuit of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen froze. Were these sculptures intellectual? How else could they know to change their strategy to ambush him together?

All six Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were coming for Ye Chen. He could not escape!

Ye Chen had prepared to activate the Heavenly Astra Seal as a last resort. He could come back out after avoiding this wave of attack. A Celestial Flying Dagger materialized out of his right hand and shot forward.

The Flying Dagger had pierced through the head of one of the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures. It burst with a bang and pieces of crushed rocks splashed around.

Ye Chen was shocked to see that despite losing its head, the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture was still moving and rushing at him.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, watch out!” Little Wingsy saw that Ye Chen was in trouble. Little Wingsy turned into his primal form where his body size was slightly smaller than his largest form. A thick and strong tail swung forward, sweeping at the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures.

Bang!

The tables and chairs in the hall were obliterated. Five of the six Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures swept by Little Wingsy’s tail were sent flying ten meters and crashed hard against the wall.

The remaining Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture that had evaded Little Wingsy’s attack came back up and charged at Ye Chen.

Little Wingsy twisted his tail sharply. With another loud bang, the last sculpture was also sent flying away.

Although the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were hit hard, they did not take any visible damage. With another loud, strange shriek, they came back up and surrounded them again.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, the monsters are back. We have to go!” Little Wingsy said hurriedly.

Ye Chen carried Little Squido and took Little Tanuki. He hopped onto Little Wingsy’s back.

Fortunately, there was enough space. Despite Little Wingsy’s small frame, he still had enough space to move freely. Little Wingsy quickly took flight.

The six Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were still in hot pursuit. With his right hand, Ye Chen shot one Celestial Flying Dagger after another.

Thump!

Upon collision with the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures, the sculptures blasted apart and pieces of ashes and dust drifted onto the ground.

Within a moment, another two Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures rushed forward again. Little Wingsy swung his tail and sent those sculptures crashing into the ground. They could not climb their way out for a while.

Little Wingsy’s body glided swiftly as he noticed an open window on top of the building.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, hold on tight!” Little Wingsy called out. He glided upward and darted toward the window.

Ye Chen had realized what Little Wingsy was planning to do and he quickly channeled a Chi Construct Barrier. When he looked down, he saw the d*mn beasts were coming after them again.

Bang!

The structure around the window was rammed into pieces by Little Wingsy’s head. Little Wingsy’s body followed through and made his way out of the window, out into the open sky.

Ye Chen unsheathed the Hell Rupture Sword, slicing apart the falling boulders.

Little Wingsy charged out of the mountains. There were several Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures stubbornly gripping onto his tail, following him out.

They finally escaped from the d*mn place but there were still several Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures trailing behind. Ye Chen could not afford to let his guard down.

Little Wingsy thrust downward fiercely and his enormous body glided just slightly above the forest. With a sweep of his tail, he threw the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures crashing into the forest.

With several loud crashes, a vast field of trees was destroyed by Little Wingsy’s body.

The Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures continued their strange shrieks. Despite being flung away by Little Wingsy, they still would not give up on the chase. At this point, they were about three hundred meters away from the Nether Palace. One of the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures suddenly screamed horrifyingly. Its body was riddled in cracks. It suddenly shattered into pieces and fell from the sky.

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback. Was the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture dead? He was confused. These Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were practically immortal. Even with its head crushed into pieces, they could still move around. Why did they just suddenly drop dead? He looked into the distance at the other five sculptures which were in mid-air, not advancing anymore. They looked at Ye Chen and the others before turning back and returning to the Nether Palace.

Ye Chen suddenly understood. If these beasts went past a certain distance away from the Nether Palace, they would self-destruct! The true secrets behind the existence of these Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures must be within the Nether Palace. There must have been something controlling them!

Looking into the distant, eerie entrance of the Nether Palace, it made Ye Chen shudder.

A chill crept upon Ye Chen. Everything in the Nether Palace was so mysterious and unexplainable. The ferocious Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures still gave him some lingering fears. For some time from here on, he would not dare muster the courage to explore the Nether Palace again.

“Little Tanuki, Little Wingsy, let’s go.” Ye Chen had used his Astral Body to send a signal to the Golden Sun Condor. Soon, the Golden Sun Condor flew over. Little Wingsy turned back to his regular form and hopped onto the Golden Sun Condor’s back along with Ye Chen, Little Tanuki, and Little Squido.

The Golden Sun Condor hovered around the skies above the Nether Palace and bound northward at last.

If there was no need for it, Ye Chen would not return here again.

Little Wingsy, did you guys find anything in there?” Ye Chen had conducted some aftercare on the Black Lotuses before returning them into the medical cabinet within the armguard space. The medical cabinet in the armguard must be managed diligently. Otherwise, if he kept retrieving medicinal herbs from it but did not restock them, no matter how large the supply of medicinal herbs was, it would run out one day.

“Big Sister Tanuki found some Tier Two and Three spirit artifacts,” Little Wingsy said as he took out a Heaven-Earth Pouch. It contained different types of weaponry, armor, and other items. There were thirteen in total. Five of them were in good condition while the other eight were damaged. Although they were damaged, the material they were made with was of excellent quality so they were still valuable. Little Wingsy looked at several other Heaven-Earth Pouches he held in his hands. “I also took about thirty jars from the palace.”

“Could you take out the jars?” Ye Chen was curious about the jars.

“Hm.” Little Tanuki nodded as he retrieved a jar from the Heaven-Earth Pouch.

Ye Chen inspected it. The jars were made with excellent craftsmanship and its materials were extraordinary as well. The mouth of the jar was sealed with a thick layer of sealing clay. Each of the jars weighed up to twenty to thirty kilograms. He had attempted to crack open the sealing clay and a thick scent of wine came from within. Even though Ye Chen did not drink alcohol, his mouth was watering. It was difficult to say just how long this wine had been fermented but it was sweet beyond belief!

Little Wingsy already had saliva dripping down from his mouth. He stared at Ye Chen with his eyes wide open. “Big Brother Ye Chen, can I drink it?”

“One moment.” Ye Chen shook his head. He did not know if the wine was poisonous. He thought about it. His Celestial Chi had a certain degree of detoxification effect. He dipped his finger into the wine. The thick wine no longer had a liquid form but instead, took on a jelly-like form.

Ye Chen consumed a small bit of it and immediately channeled the Flying Dagger’s Celestial Chi to his stomach region. If it was poisonous, he would be able to counter it.

The wine jelly went down Ye Chen’s stomach. He instantly felt like there was a flame burning within his belly as it was scorching hot.

Such strong wine!

Still, it was a truly incredibly sweet and good wine!

A flush of red quickly came upon Ye Chen’s cheeks. He was feeling tipsy despite only having just a little. Besides, his cultivation base was mid-tier Earthly Venerable Rank where ordinary liquor would not have any effect on him. Ye Chen channeled his Celestial Chi and suppressed the drunkenness.

This wine had a certain degree of effect on the Cultivation Base. However, its effects were negligible since it was not some form of extraordinary Spirit Pill.

“This wine is strong, don’t drink too much.” Ye Chen took several bowls from his armguard space and poured some for Little Tanuki, Little Wingsy, and Little Squido. He then sealed the jar back up.

Little Tanuki, Little Wingsy, and Little Squido drank some and one after another started getting slightly drunk. Little Wingsy had drunk the most and thankfully, his body was of Daemon King Rank. Otherwise, he would have gotten so drunk he would have fallen head first off the Golden Sun Condor.

“This wine is delicious,” Little Wingsy muttered and stared at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen did not dare let Little Wingsy drink anymore. He quickly stored all the jars back into his armguard space.

Little Wingsy pouted. There was no other way around it as it would be troublesome if he had gotten drunk. He just sat there and continued chewing on a leg of lamb.
