Under Yun Che's care, although Chu Yuechan's meridians had not recovered, her physical condition had improved a lot, and her originally pale face had a faint red color. However, her whole body was still paralyzed, and only her right arm and right hand could move slightly. In this extremely dangerous place, Yun Che stayed with her all the time in order to protect her.
Chu Yuechan shouldn't eat too much at each meal, a small bowl of fish soup is enough. After drinking the fish soup, Chu Yuechan gently closed her eyes and leaned on Yun Che's chest, her expression was very peaceful and calm... She didn't even notice that this sense of peace was better than when she was concentrating on retreat in the sect's secret realm.
During these five months, she had been sleeping for most of the time, and she had spent more time in Yun Che's arms than sleeping. From the initial rejection, to the gradual adaptation, to the complete habit, and after the habit, it would unconsciously develop into attachment... But Chu Yuechan had no idea about the concept of "attachment". Because before Yun Che, she had never been alone with any man, let alone any intimate contact. But this time, they were inseparable, and their skin was close for nearly five months, which was unimaginable to the former Chu Yuechan.
No one knew what her state of mind was when facing Yun Che at this moment, not even she herself knew.
“Just get some rest and have a good sleep. We will be able to leave here soon. By then, all your strength will be restored.” Yun Che patted Chu Yuechan’s pink back gently, his voice as gentle as if he was coaxing a baby who was about to fall asleep.
Not long after, Chu Yuechan's breathing became even and slow, and she fell into a light sleep.
Yun Che put away the things at hand, stood up holding Chu Yuechan, looked ahead and said: "Jasmine, how long have we been here?"
"Today is the one hundred and forty-first day." Jasmine answered accurately.
"... So, there is less than a month left before the Cangfeng Ranking Tournament." Yun Che frowned, and a little anxiety rose in his heart. He promised Lan Xueruo that he would definitely go back within half a year. Now, more than five months have passed, and he is still trapped in this trial ground. Five months have passed, and he has adapted to this place. To complete this level of trial, all he needs is time. But to leave here, he still needs to kill more than 10,000 mysterious beasts. These mysterious beasts are not something that can be killed casually. Every one of them is a real spiritual mysterious beast.
And after the second level of trial, there is a third level of trial.
After leaving the trial ground, it would take a long time to get out of the Death Wasteland. After leaving the Death Wasteland, even if you travel day and night, it will take at least five days to return to Blue Wind Imperial City...
If he didn't leave here as soon as possible, he would not be able to catch up with the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, and would not be able to fulfill his promise to Lan Xueruo.
“It seems that we must speed up the progress. We must kill all the remaining profound beasts within ten days, even if we have to risk our lives!” Yun Che said with a frown.
"Ten days? Humph, what a joke! To complete the trial, you still need to kill 16,000 profound beasts. If you want to complete it in ten days, you have to kill at least 1,600 every day! You have killed an average of 600 profound beasts every day in the past five months. This is already your maximum speed at which you have tried your best. It is impossible to kill the remaining 16,000 profound beasts in ten days... If you rush in anxiously and lose your composure, you may be killed by the profound beasts instead." Jasmine warned.
Yun Che was speechless.
"roar!!"
Suddenly, a deafening roar came from far behind him. Yun Che frowned at the sound, and then he cursed inwardly: “Damn! Why is this guy here again? He’s haunting me!”
After saying that, Yun Che didn't even think twice and ran away. Not long after, a gigantic unicorn beast passed by where he was standing before, chasing after him with a gust of wind.
Although he had stayed here for nearly five months, and spent every day fighting against profound beasts that were far superior to him, Yun Che's profound strength still remained at the fourth level of the True Profound Realm. It was not that his profound strength had never shown any signs of a breakthrough, but that it had been suppressed by him, preventing it from breaking through. Because when his profound strength breaks through, he will be unable to move for a short period of time, and cannot be disturbed by anything, otherwise it will easily cause damage to his profound veins. In this endless wasteland full of dangers, not only would there be no one to protect him when he breaks through, but Chu Yuechan would also be in the same dangerous situation as him, so the breakthrough of his profound strength had been suppressed by him.
Otherwise, with his cross-level fighting every day and night, plus the full opening of the fifty-four profound gates, it would not be an exaggeration for his profound strength to be raised to the eighth level of the True Profound Realm in five months.
Although there has been no breakthrough, the suppressed profound strength is becoming stronger day by day. Even without the four great divine powers, his profound strength is far beyond the ordinary True Profound Level 4.
The beast that was chasing him was called Tyrant Unicorn. It was a sixth level Spiritual Profound Realm beast, with fierce strength and an extremely tough body. With the added protection of a strong profound force, Yun Che could hardly hurt it even with Dragon Fault. If Chu Yuechan wasn't by Yun Che's side, he could still deal with it, but he had to hold Chu Yuechan in one hand and could only hold the sword with one hand, so he couldn't be a match for the Tyrant Unicorn even if he rode a horse.
So whenever Yun Che encountered this guy, he would turn around and run away.
Star God Shattered Shadow was an instantaneous profound skill, not a sustained acceleration type profound skill, so it could not greatly increase Yun Che’s movement speed. However, Yun Che usually carried an eight thousand jin heavy sword, so when he wanted to escape, he only needed to throw the heavy sword into the Sky Poison Pearl, and then he would feel his body so light that he almost floated up, and he would run even faster than the wind, so getting rid of this Tyrannical Unicorn was just a matter of minutes.
Yun Che ran at full speed ahead, the ground beneath his feet retreating rapidly, pulling the Tyrannical Unicorn further and further away. At this moment, Jasmine’s warning voice suddenly came to his mind: “Be careful, there is a cliff ahead!”
As Jasmine's voice fell, a cliff also appeared in Yun Che's sight. He frowned, slowed down suddenly, and planted his feet firmly on the ground. After sliding for a long distance, he finally stopped at the edge of the cliff. But immediately, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Because when he looked down, he saw that the cliff was not high, less than fifty feet, and he could jump down easily. There was no dangerous place under the cliff, but a dense forest... or perhaps it would be more appropriate to say forest, because the sea of trees in front of him was connected to the sky, and even if he stood on a high place, he could not see the edge at all.
“How can there be a forest in a plain area?” Yun Che muttered to himself and was about to jump down when suddenly, a dangerous gust of wind came from his right side.
Yun Che’s eyes flickered, and he stretched out his right hand like lightning, tightly grasping a thin, smooth, and cold object with his two fingers.
This was a black snake that was not even long, only half the thickness of a finger. Yun Che firmly grasped it by the seven inches, spitting out its pitch-black tongue and struggling painfully.
“Emperor Black-lined Snake!” Yun Che, who was familiar with all kinds of poisons in the world, recognized this venomous snake at a glance.
The Emperor Black Snake is very short and thin, and its body is fragile. If an ordinary child accidentally steps on it, it can be crushed to death. But such a fragile little snake is not only named "Emperor", but also a genuine spiritual beast! Because although it is fragile, it has extremely terrifying toxicity and speed. If it is touched by its fangs, anyone below the spiritual realm, regardless of human or beast, will die within ten breaths. Even if it is in the spiritual realm, if it is bitten by it, it will be difficult to survive for half an hour without a way to detoxify. In addition, its body is small and difficult to be discovered. When it moves, it is like a black lightning, which makes people completely defenseless. Any spiritual beast, even the ground beast, will take a detour when seeing it, and avoid it as much as possible.
With the Sky Poison Pearl on him, even if Yun Che was bitten by it, it wouldn’t matter at all. He stared at the Emperor Black Line Snake, and suddenly turned around, facing the Overlord Unicorn that had already chased him, and handed the Emperor Black Line Snake from his right hand to his left hand, and instantly sucked out all of its venom with the Sky Poison Pearl, then threw it away, took out the Tiger Soul Sword that had not been used for a long time, and smeared the venom on the tip of the Tiger Soul Sword.
“…After the poison of the Sky Poison Pearl disappeared, it seems that this is the first time that poison has been used.” Looking at the tip of the Tiger Soul Sword, his mind flashed back to the tragic scene of the poison spreading throughout the city and corpses strewn all over the ground. His eyes dimmed quietly, and then he rushed towards the Overlord Unicorn like a gust of wind.
Seeing that this human who usually ran away when seeing it actually took the initiative to meet it this time, the Overlord Unicorn was stunned for a moment, then roared, bared its fangs, and pounced towards Yun Che.
whoosh!
The sharp claws of the Overlord Unicorn slashed across a shadow of Yun Che. Yun Che’s real body dislocated horizontally and rushed over from its left side. The Tiger Soul Sword, which was condensed with profound energy, fiercely slashed the left side of its body, leaving a wound about two inches long, large enough to draw blood.
Yun Che stopped, the Tiger Soul Sword in his hand was retracted and replaced with Dragon Fault.
With the huge body of the Tyrannosaurus, this injury was nothing. After missing the target, the Tyrannosaurus turned around, opened its huge mouth, and rushed forward again. But halfway through, its front legs suddenly tilted, and its whole body fell heavily to the ground, and then began to twitch. It kept stamping on the ground with all four limbs, but it could not stand up no matter what. Gradually, it began to roar in pain... From the small wound, drops of dark blood slowly flowed out.
Yun Che rushed forward and shattered its profound strength defense, which had become fragile under the erosion of the poison, with one sword. Then he struck its head with seven or eight sword strikes in succession until it was silent.
“I don’t know when the poison of the Sky Poison Pearl can be restored.” Yun Che couldn’t help but sigh. Relying on a little bit of poison, he almost effortlessly killed the Tyrant Unicorn that he could only escape before. He knew better than anyone how terrible the poison was. Back then, at the age of less than 30, he was able to survive for seven years in the pursuit of the entire continent, relying on the poison of the Sky Poison Pearl. Under the Sky Poison Pearl’s poison, countless strong men who were many times stronger than Yun Che, even peerless strong men, died in his hands.
“If the poison power of the Sky Poison Pearl is still there, in this trial ground, with the Sky Poison spreading everywhere, let alone ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine profound beasts, even if there were ten times as many, they could all be poisoned to death in one night.” Yun Che said with deep emotion.
The Sky Poison Pearl is a Xuantian supreme treasure, and its extraordinary power is more than just tempering.
Wait... the sky is full of poison?
Yun Che suddenly perked up and looked towards the boundless forest below the cliff. After a while, he slowly laughed.
“Jasmine, believe it or not, if we are lucky, we can leave this place today.”
