Chapter 73 Divine Light, Azure Edge Evolution
Sacred altar.
The divine deer tried the methods it remembered again and again, but it still couldn't open the altar.
How could that be?
impossible!
Why didn't the method left to it by the old divine deer work?
The divine deer residing at the sacred altar could never have imagined that its method was actually effective; it was the curse card used by Shen Jue that had taken effect.
This is why it was possessed by the God of Misfortune, making it impossible to open the sacred altar.
In fact, if it weren't for the sacred altar, it might have experienced a feeling worse than death.
The divine deer tried again and again, but to no avail.
It was only then that I realized that the inability to open the Holy Sacrifice might be related to the cursed card.
It's all Shen Jue's fault!
If it weren't for her meddling, her method wouldn't have failed.
What should we do next?
The divine deer paced anxiously back and forth on the sacred altar.
...
With a single throwing knife, Shen Jue completely ended the spider's attempt to escape.
Finished, that's a wrap!
Shen Jue tallied up their gains; this time, working together with Qing Feng, they had captured a total of 48 A-grade dream beasts.
18 purple treasure chests and 6 red treasure chests will drop.
She has obtained a total of 480 Battlefield Tokens, which, combined with the previous 62 Battlefield Tokens, bring her total to 542.
Suddenly rich.
Previously, outside the forbidden area, Shen Jue did not allow Qingfeng to come out for two reasons: first, he was afraid that Qingfeng's appearance would cause panic, and second, he was afraid that other expert players would mistake Qingfeng for a dream beast and kill it.
There are too many concerns outside, but it's different here. Here, it's just her, Qingfeng, and that dead deer whose whereabouts are currently unknown.
You can easily defeat any dream beast below S rank.
After resolving these issues, it's time to settle accounts with that deer.
"Qingfeng, smell it?"
Shen Jue took out the deer's fur and the fragrance.
By tracking this fragrance, we can find the deer.
Qingfeng has a keen sense of smell and is exceptionally good at distinguishing scents.
After he smelled it, he had Shen Jue climb onto his head and carried Shen Jue on a lightning-fast journey.
...
The other divine deer stares blankly at the sacred altar.
It had no other choice.
What's even more pitiful is that it has no way to leave this place.
The curse card on its body had taken effect sometime during the night; as soon as it left this place, its heart began to ache unbearably, as if it were about to explode. Its oxygen-deprived body nearly collapsed.
Finally, it struggled back up with a thud.
Only then did the heart pain lessen, and it was only then that it finally acknowledged the power of the curse card.
If the curse card isn't removed and it doesn't leave this place, it won't even be able to walk.
Tragically, it had already angered Shen Jue and deliberately abandoned her, so now, no one knows whether Shen Jue is alive or dead.
If Shen Jue were still alive and came looking for me, I would be in deep trouble.
If Shen Jue dies, who will lift the curse?
Its innate abilities are now useless; the divine deer has nowhere to cry now.
All I could do was pray silently that Shen Jue wouldn't die; if she did, there would be no way to lift the curse.
...
Following the scented agent, Qingfeng found a palace with its doors tightly closed.
We've checked all around, but there are no other exits.
The scent of the divine deer was right behind the gate.
The only problem now is how she's going to get in.
The gate was very secure; it would be difficult to break it open by force.
We have to think of other solutions.
The gate in front of us is decorated with intricate and exquisite patterns, which, upon closer inspection, seem to conceal hidden secrets.
Shen Jue carefully examined the patterns and actually found a clue.
She noticed that one of the patterns reflected a faint light in the sunlight.
This pattern looks different from the others; it seems to be a mechanism.
A thought struck Shen Jue, and he reached out to gently touch the light.
The moment her fingertips touched the light, the door suddenly opened slowly.
Shen Jue stepped through the door, which closed automatically after she entered.
The interior is luxuriously decorated, with exquisite patterns carved on the pillars and various calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls.
In the very center of the palace stood a colossal human-shaped statue, its face imposing, its eyes seemingly able to see through everything. It was more of an altar than a statue.
On the other side of the altar stood the divine deer that had abandoned her and run away earlier.
"It's been so long, I've missed you terribly." He missed her so much that he would draw his sword as soon as they met.
"How did you end up here?" The divine deer stared at Shen Jue in astonishment, never expecting that Shen Jue would appear at the sacred altar.
Shen Jue sneered, "You could abandon me to come here, so why can't I? Do you think I can't do anything to you just because you've shaken me off?" (Why does this sound like I'm playing a villain?)
The divine deer's anger was useless; it couldn't show any dissatisfaction. Instead, it laughed to smooth things over, "Haha... Well, it was just a moment of panic when I suddenly saw so many dream beasts. I was super flustered too. Besides, you know I don't have any fighting skills. If I couldn't beat them, I could only leave first. I couldn't stay there and hold you back."
"Heh! Do you think I'd believe that explanation?"
"I still think it's more worthwhile to just kill you and explore this place myself."
Shen Jue, wielding a long sword, hurtled through the air. Faced with such an attack, the divine deer could only flee.
Its survival to this day is due not only to luck, but also to its strong ability to escape.
Faced with Shen Jue's attack, Shen Lu could tell at a glance whether the attack posed a danger to her.
It was obvious that Shen Jue's strike was very powerful, and the divine deer ran around the altar in a panic.
Fortunately, the altar was large enough, and the divine deer desperately dodged Shen Jue's attacks. It had no choice but to fight desperately, as it was currently plagued by bad luck and didn't have much good fortune to spare.
While running for his life, he shouted, "Chen Jue, I was wrong. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you to face this alone. I was really wrong. Please let me go and stop chasing me. I am the only heir of our Divine Deer Clan. If you kill me, you will never be able to leave this forbidden area. I swear to God this time, I really didn't lie to you. If I did lie to you, may I be struck by lightning."
Shen Jue hadn't expected that this divine deer was so fast. Every time he tried to kill it, the deer would manage to dodge by a hair's breadth.
Even though I used a cursed card, I'm still so lucky.
They truly deserve their race's innate skills.
But you can't kill it on someone else's turf.
I have no intention of killing it, but I can temper its temper and teach it a lesson.
When the divine deer saw Shen Jue sheath his sword, it assumed that Shen Jue had listened to its advice and let it go.
I breathed a slight sigh of relief. Thank goodness. This player does have some sense...
The next second, Shen Jue suddenly accelerated, drew his sword, and slashed.
With a flash of light and shadow, Phantom Night was sheathed.
"Ah!!!" On the other side, the divine deer screamed in agony, half of its antlers being cut off by Shen Jue.
"Shen Jue, you've gone too far. How could you cut off my antlers? Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"Heh, you're barely able to save yourself, and you still have time to talk about retribution."
