Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 134 Bei Tianhai

The Great Jin State is a large country that ranks among the top ten among the 106 states in the Northern Province. It is located in the western part of the Northern Province, has a large population and complex forces. Its wealth is far from comparable to the other four neighboring states such as Xuanwu.

The most famous river in the territory of the Great Jin State is the Tongzhou River.

Tongzhou River is located in the western part of the Great Jin State. Its branches lead to dozens of Wu States along the river. Its lowest reaches are the Beitian Sea!

The scope of the Beitian Sea is unimaginably vast, and it divides the northern region into five major states.

Therefore, Tongzhou River often became the only river that warriors from Beizhou had to pass through to go to the other four states.

There are also some river beasts in this river, which often appear. Their flesh and blood are often very precious to warriors, especially their demon pills, which are extremely precious. Each one can be exchanged for different amounts of Yuanshi.

For various reasons, over the countless years, generation after generation of people have continued to come to the Great Jin State, gradually settling there and giving rise to one force after another.

But in the past six months, the prosperous Great Jin Kingdom has been in complete chaos. Many forces and sects were massacred overnight, leaving no one alive.

On this day, as the sun was setting and about to turn into sunset, the vast and peaceful Tongzhou River was shimmering with ripples. A large ship was approaching from a distance.

In the river breeze, a silk flag fluttered high in the air. On it was embroidered the word "Guan". In the middle of the flag, there was also a picture of a long sword.

On the deck, there were more than fifty black-armored warriors standing, surrounding the cabin.

Each of these black-armored warriors wore a black mask on his face and held a sword. Although their faces could not be seen, they exuded a murderous aura. They were the famous Black-Armored Guards of the Great Jin State.

Inside the cabin, the sounds of children playing could be heard from time to time. On the snow-white tiger-skin carpet, a toddler was crawling around, making the jeweled young woman and a maid in green on the couch giggle.

But at this moment, a woman's surprised cry suddenly came from the side of the cabin.

"Look, there's a person floating in the river!"

On one side of the ship, there were five or six people gathered, both men and women, maids, male servants, and boatmen, huddled together, pointing and talking in amazement.

"What are you arguing about? Don't you know that you might disturb the Madam and the Young Master?" An old man walked out of the cabin, his face darkened when he saw this situation, and he scolded the maids and servants.

The old man looked aged, but from time to time a gleam of brilliance flashed in his slightly narrowed eyes.

"Butler He, in the river..." The little girl named Huang Ying timidly stretched out her white and tender fingers and pointed at the river.

"He's just a dead man. Nowadays, there are always some dead bodies to feed the fish in Tongjiang Prefecture. Eh? Strange, this person is still alive."

The old man showed a strange look, and then looked at the maid with suspicion.

"Yes, yes. I also saw the boy's eyelids move just now." The maid nodded and said affirmatively.

At this moment, the door curtain of the cabin was lifted, and a beautiful young woman, wearing a water silk dress, who seemed to have natural beauty and was very bright, walked out of the cabin with a smile. However, although she seemed to be smiling, she could not hide the anxiety and uneasiness in her eyes.

She was holding a child about one or two years old, a boy, with a rosy pink face, who looked very cute.

"Greetings, madam!" The old butler looked serious and bowed deeply with his fists clasped.

The servants around him also bowed immediately.

"We are all family, no need to be polite. I just heard that there is a living person floating in the river." The woman nodded with a smile, then looked at the drowning boy in the river.

"Uncle He, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Since the child is not dead, let's rescue him first." said the woman.

"Madam! Letting a strange boy on board...?" Uncle He looked hesitant.

"It doesn't matter. Since this child has met us, he should have survived. With so many black-armored guards protecting him, are you still afraid of a drowning boy?" The woman said softly, but with an irresistible majesty.

"Okay. Since Madam has ordered so, I will ask someone to go down and rescue them." The old man thought about it for a moment and had to agree.

The jewel-covered woman smiled slightly and said nothing more. She returned to the cabin with her child and the maid.

……

I don’t know how long I stayed in the darkness. After a splitting headache, Ye Xuan finally woke up from his coma.

He opened his eyes and found himself in a dark and damp grocery room.

Looking inward at his own body, Ye Xuan let out a light breath.

“Fortunately, I didn’t hesitate at the time and directly used the Thunder Dragon’s Advent to bless the Ten Directions Space. Otherwise, the storm in the space crack would definitely blow my body apart!”

Ye Xuan's eyes were filled with memories, and he was still frightened. His luck was too bad. He actually encountered a space storm in the space crack. Although it only lasted for a few breaths, it still made him walk through the gates of hell.

This is because he possesses the power of space and has a strong resistance to space wind explosions. If it were any other warrior, even a warrior who has reached the great perfection of the True Spirit Realm would probably die in the space storm!

When I felt my body again, I suddenly discovered that my meridians were damaged!

"What a powerful space storm. I wonder what happened to Ye Yan, Ye Jing and the others!" Ye Xuan was slightly shocked.

Not long after the Saint of the Moon Worshipping Demon Cult entered the space crack that day, the entire secret realm completely collapsed. Ye Xuan originally wanted to look for Ye Yan and others, but it was too late. He could only drill into the nearest space crack and leave the secret realm.

"I think Ye Yan and the others will also choose to escape through the space crack."

Ye Xuan thought to himself and turned his head to look, only to see the door of the room opened and an old man walked in.

"You woke up. My wife was kind-hearted and saved you. Otherwise, you would have drowned in this river."

When Uncle He saw Ye Xuan waking up, he said coldly, but he felt a little strange in his heart.

The young man's face was clearly frighteningly pale, showing signs of severe blood loss, but when taking his pulse, it was unusually strong, as if his body was full of powerful vitality. This was truly puzzling!
But one thing is certain, there is no fluctuation of Yuanli in this young man, he is just an ordinary mortal boy.

Ye Xuan wanted to stand up and express his gratitude.

"The ship will dock in three days. You can stay in this grocery room if you have nothing to do. My wife likes quietness. Don't disturb her body, otherwise, I will throw you into the river again!" The old man said coldly.

After saying that, he turned and left without giving Ye Xuan any chance to speak.

This made Ye Xuan stunned. He had already seen that the old man was a True Yuan Realm warrior. And because he was wearing the Yin Yuan jade pendant, the old man probably thought he was just a mortal and had no intention of talking to a 'mortal' boy like him.
