Imperial Cultivation Chapter 1469 - 1465: Evil Object
Previously on Imperial Cultivation...
Luo Yun looked at him with a face full of helplessness.
Huang Zhengyang leapt into the air, sticking to the stone wall again, both palms and feet touching the wall like a gecko, swiftly traversing upwards forty meters before his expression suddenly changed.
His body suddenly sank, sliding straight down.
He roared with anger, abandoning his True Yuan, relying solely on the strength of his flesh, stepping and grabbing the protruding stones on the wall.
Ultimately, he didn’t fall completely to the ground, abruptly stopping midway from his descent.
Luo Yun watched with admiration clicking his tongue.
Huang Zhengyang ignored him, feeling the aura on the stone wall continuously pouring into him.
This caused his True Yuan to become increasingly chaotic, eventually losing complete control.
He was glad he didn’t jump too high.
Luo Yun shouted: "How are you, Brother Huang, are you okay?"
Huang Zhengyang shook his head, continued to stir his True Yuan, trying to expel the strange aura.
But as time passed, the Abnormal Energy increased, he couldn’t even mobilize his True Yuan.
In this situation, he was no different from a person whose martial arts had been abolished.
Unlike someone who lost martial arts, his body was still strong, allowing him to stick steadily to the wall.
Time continued to pass.
He looked up at the stone wall, there were no enough footholds nearby.
Although it was only twenty meters high, without True Yuan, unable to use Qinggong, falling down would be painful.
While performing Qinggong, jumping a hundred meters felt like the bare minimum.
Now, without Qinggong, realizing that even twenty meters is high, a fall would be disastrous.
"Brother Huang, are you sure you’re okay?" Luo Yun shouted again.
Huang Zhengyang suddenly felt irritated.
He vaguely sensed the mockery in Luo Yun’s concern, making him even more annoyed.
"Why don’t you come down first?" Luo Yun said.
Huang Zhengyang took a deep breath, suppressing his anger and said in a deep voice: "I’ll come down now."
Luo Yun laughed: "This stone wall is really strange indeed."
In his view, Huang Zhengyang’s current appearance was utterly awkward and amusing.
He wanted to hold back, but looking at him so oddly, he really couldn’t help but suppress his smile.
Yet the tone of his voice already contained amusement.
Huang Zhengyang felt the continuous influx of Abnormal Energy, his body began to stiffen.
The Abnormal Energy disrupted the True Yuan, then like stagnant water, next causing the body to stiffen.
He could predict that if it continued, he might turn into a statue.
He increasingly felt the power of the Abnormal Energy on the stone wall, killing silently.
"Bang!"
From the last ten meters high point, he directly leapt down, avoiding further staying up there, and becoming completely immobile.
He stood straight on the ground, his body tingling.
Without the influx of Abnormal Energy, he breathed a sigh of relief, feeling less miserable.
Luo Yun came over laughing: "How are you, Brother Huang? You don’t look good."
Huang Zhengyang chuckled bitterly, shook his head and sighed: "I didn’t expect it to be so bothersome."
Luo Yun said: "Troublesome? I almost fell half-dead at the time."
Huang Zhengyang looked at him.
Luo Yun said: "If I hadn’t been cautious, felt something strange and immediately descended, not stubbornly holding on going upward, I would’ve turned into mince by now!"
"Brother Luo, I’m impressed!" Huang Zhengyang clasped his fist.
Luo Yun waved his hand: "There’s nothing impressive about it, just lessons learned."
He laughed then said: "So, can we leave now?"
Huang Zhengyang shook his head.
"Not letting it go yet?" Luo Yun asked puzzled: "Do you really want to get entangled with this broken stone wall?"
"Brother Luo, don’t you find it very marvelous?" Huang Zhengyang said.
"I don’t find it marvelous, just weird." Luo Yun said: "This Grotto Heaven is different from our world, no need to make a fuss. Better to be unfazed by the bizarre."
"I find it very marvelous." Huang Zhengyang said.
Luo Yun sighed: "Brother Huang, you’re losing big because of something small, being tied up here, how can you find your serendipity?"
"Maybe this is the serendipity." Huang Zhengyang said.
"Haha..." Luo Yun laughed heartily, pointing at Huang Zhengyang: "Brother Huang, you’re really interesting!"
Huang Zhengyang calmly looked at him: "Brother Luo, seems we have different thoughts."
"Indeed different." Luo Yun shook his head: "But I respect Brother Huang’s thought, so let’s investigate here thoroughly."
"And you, Brother Luo?" Huang Zhengyang said.
"I’ll wait here, if someone comes, I’ll join them to go. If no one shows up, I’ll wait for you, Brother Huang."
"...That’s fine." Huang Zhengyang solemnly said: "I’ll stay here for two days, if there’s no result after two days, then I’ll venture into the valley!"
Luo Yun laughed: "Then I’ll wait for you, Brother Huang, two days are nothing!"
In his heart, he cursed endlessly.
But now he needed someone, couldn’t do otherwise, or he would’ve abandoned it long ago.
When seeking help, one must have the attitude of seeking help.
...
Chu Zhiyuan withdrew his gaze, revealing a smile.
He vaguely guessed, Huang Zhengyang’s actions, were not solely because of patience and curiosity.
It wasn’t due to insufficient thirst for serendipity, but because the valley ahead was too dangerous.
A deadly danger.
So he wanted to gather more experts to share the risk.
There were snakes in the valley, if there were more targets for these snakes, the attacks on him would naturally be less.
This was a method of sharing the risk.
Acting like this, he didn’t want to judge much, after all, whether he was there or not, those people would still venture into the valley.
He could remind them with his presence, giving them a little more chance of survival.
Luo Yun, this court honored expert, he didn’t know whether or not he could safely escape from the valley.
He shook his head, looking at the two women who pushed the door open and entered.
When Shen Hanyue handed over the Jade Carved Strange Insect, Chu Zhiyuan did not refuse.
He took it and, with Super Sensing Illumination inside and out, feeling its wonder.
Shen Hanyue smiled radiantly: "Princely Heir, twelve Flying Knives are so thrilling!"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and continued with Insight.
Shen Hanyue said: "Would it be more powerful if there were more Flying Knives?"
Xiao Ruoling laughed: "You want more Flying Knives, Junior Sister?"
"Hehe, the more the better!" Shen Hanyue giggled.
Xiao Ruoling shook her head: "This isn’t the more the better, that’s being insatiably greedy!"
Shen Hanyue laughed merrily: "If I have a pile of Flying Knives, just throw them out, who can stop them?"
"You..." Xiao Ruoling shook her head.
Chu Zhiyuan furrowed his brows, looking at the Strange Insect Jade Pendant, shaking his head: "This thing is a bit sinister."
"How is it sinister?" Shen Hanyue quickly asked.
Chu Zhiyuan sighed: "Better not touch it."
Shen Hanyue quickly asked: "Is it an Evil Path item? It can’t be, right?"
Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded: "It indeed is an evil item."
Shen Hanyue’s eyes brightened, quickly saying: "Is it related to the Evil Sect?"
Xiao Ruoling also curiously looked at Chu Zhiyuan: "If related to the Evil Sect, then that’s good!"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Why?"
Xiao Ruoling’s bright eyes sparkled: "It would prove Li Huo Palace is colluding with the Evil Sect!"
Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "Just based on this one evil item, claiming it as the Evil Sect is probably too far-fetched."
Shen Hanyue said: "Stretching the truth is okay, as long as there’s this excuse, that’s enough, many are discontent with Li Huo Palace, just need an excuse to gather them and deal with it together!"
Xiao Ruoling gently nodded: "Husband, is this truly an evil item?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "It vaguely can devour souls, without a doubt it’s evil, possibly involving an Evil God."
"Then it’s settled." Xiao Ruoling said slowly.
Shen Hanyue excitedly said: "Wonderful, we’re accomplishing great deeds this time!
