Perfect Double Agent

"Could it be like us, just that it came in earlier?"

The two had no idea what was going on. However, whether it was because there was danger ahead or because the creature seemed to no longer want to hide, a huge rift opened up in the sky behind them with a loud rumble.

Then, a hideous creature emerged from within.

This was an extremely strange and ferocious beast, with the head of a monstrous beast, the body of a rhinoceros, and the tail of an ancestral crocodile. It had nine horns of different colors that shot upwards from its head, and all six legs were as thick as giant pillars, covered with scales of a qilin. With each step it took, the surrounding space made a cracking sound, as if glass was shattering beneath its feet.

This ferocious beast is too strange. It is hundreds of feet tall, like a small mountain. Its aura is powerful and violent, and every move it makes is filled with indescribable spatial secret power.

"This is... a Void Beast?!"

Yuechan exclaimed in surprise, unable to remain calm. This ferocious beast looked so much like the image recorded in the ancient books; it was practically identical.

It is said that this creature is extremely rare, almost extinct, and was exceptionally rare even in ancient times. They never expected to find a living Void Beast here.

If the leaders of various cults found out, they would definitely scramble to take it as a pet.

This creature has so many uses; its hides and bones can fetch astronomical prices, yet there's still no market for them.

However, this creature is inherently difficult to tame and is incredibly ferocious; no one has ever been known to be able to subdue it.

"What are you so excited about? That's the late stage of the Formation Realm, almost two major realms apart. Go ahead and try to punch it!"

Yuechan froze, then suddenly turned around, her eyes glaring fiercely at her. But the next moment, she ran away.

Even Bai Ye was the same; it could be said that at this moment, they were unusually in sync.

"Why are you running away? Go back and whittle it down!"

"I'll peel it with my mouth!"

Bai Ye remained silent. That Void Beast had probably lived in this world for too long, and had been assimilated, so its cultivation level was not suppressed.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the dark crack instantly spread from behind to above their heads, carrying with it a surge of malevolent energy that enveloped them.

"Where's your power that can weaken combat strength? Use it now, weaken it!" Yuechan stopped, her whole body shining brightly, and she actually wanted to fight back.

It has to be said that Bai Ye is a stubborn kid; he turned around and went straight back to fight.

This wasn't because he listened to Yuechan, but because he remembered something.

The Void Beasts of this world are actually descendants of the Void King Beasts from other realms, but their bloodlines are no longer pure due to interbreeding with the creatures of this world.

However, even so, they possess the innate supernatural abilities of their race. Some possess several, some only one or two, and if their bloodline is more mixed, they may not even possess any.

However, if this Void Beast truly possesses an innate divine ability, then it absolutely cannot be let go. Perhaps, he could try a method of fighting without taking damage.

The Void Beast moved silently, and in an instant, it was in front of Bai Ye. Its crimson eyes were filled with disdain and ruthlessness as it swung its huge claws at him.

At that moment, space seemed to be shattered. The claws swept across, leaving five huge ravines in the air, with no end in sight.

However, it missed the figure; instead, the figure suddenly appeared in front of it and struck it with a palm.

At this moment, the Void Beast's massive body trembled, and an ethereal figure seemed to be about to fly out of its body. The movement was slow, with some kind of struggle and some kind of force hindering it.

"You also... have mastered space!"

The Void Beast spoke, its voice filled with surprise and suspicion, as well as a chilling aura. Its crimson eyes gleamed coldly, as if mocking a worm trying to show off its skills in front of Guan Yu, overestimating its own abilities. "Perfect," it said, "if I devour you, my bloodline power should be able to advance even further."

"Is that so!" Bai Ye stepped back. Although his cultivation level was suppressed and even the power of his two lifetimes had weakened, it was still effective.

"This is..." The Void Beast felt its power weaken instantly after the phantom floated out of its body. Although the power it lost was not much, it felt very real, as if something was missing from its body, which was quite strange.

But what shocked him even more was that the boy's arm, there, shone with golden light, sacred and vast, exuding an immortal aura, like something terrifying branded into the deepest part of its bloodline, which made it tremble involuntarily from the soul, and couldn't help but want to worship the human boy.

The light was so terrifying and so dazzling that it had never felt or seen anything like it before. Yet the mark was real, as if it were deeply engraved into its blood, making it momentarily collapse and worship, too afraid to look up.

However, at that very moment, a golden holy spear suddenly shot out, carrying an aura of immortality, moving at an unimaginable speed.

"Pfft!"

The golden spear successfully pierced the Void Beast's head, its sharpness astonishing, leaving Yuechan, who had just drawn her sword embryo and was about to attack, stunned.

The ability to kill enemies two realms above one has occurred before in the Upper Realm, but those were all poisons or similar substances, unlike this one, which was swift, decisive, and fatal.

But, whether it was her imagination or not, the void beast seemed to be in fear before it died; otherwise, it would never have been able to die so easily.

What Yuechan didn't know was that she had guessed correctly. It was normal for the Void Beasts to be afraid, which was one of the reasons why the alien imperial clans were so aloof. If a Void King Beast were here, Bai Ye's King Spear might not be effective.

"I didn't realize you could not only summon people, but also attract beasts," Bai Ye teased, noticing the suspicion in Yue Chan's eyes.

Are you trying to insult me?

"No, that was a compliment," Bai Ye laughed. "Since you're a big client, everyone gets a share, so I'm giving you the Void Beast Hide."

"I thought you would give me the precious bone." Yuechan smiled and did not refuse.

"If you teach me the art of mending the heavens, I might consider it."

"If you join the Heaven-Mending Sect, I will personally teach you."

But they all knew in their hearts that it was impossible, at least not now.

As for...the future?

Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?

Chapter 71 Dragon Medicine

In the hazy night, a white figure ran swiftly ahead, illuminating the ground in its path. Behind her, a group of ghostly figures, each with glowing green eyes, surged forward like a tidal wave, accompanied by an overwhelming chilling wind.

Even after running a long way, leaving the ancient battlefield and entering a primeval mountain range, she still couldn't help but pant.

"It turns out you had a bad eye. You made us get chased for five whole days. Do you know how I got through those five days? I was either running away or on my way to run away!" Bai Ye also arrived, dressed in rags and covered in dust, clearly having been chased quite a bit.

"If you weren't so stubborn, if you had trusted me just once, things wouldn't have turned out like this..."

Yuechan didn't speak or refuse. She looked quietly with her clear black and white eyes, her beautiful gaze unwavering.

As they talked, Bai Ye suddenly felt that this scene was somewhat familiar. It seemed that the witch had said the same thing to him before, and he had listened quietly like this back then, without refuting or admitting his mistake.

However, the next moment, a small jade bottle was handed over, with the three eye-catching characters "Mending Heaven Pill" engraved on it.

This is an extremely precious elixir, said to be able to bring the dead back to life. Although that's an exaggeration, its effects are incredibly miraculous, somewhat similar to the Heaven-Mending Technique. Saving someone on the verge of death should be a piece of cake.

But Yuechan's skillful movements made Bai Ye hesitate slightly. This woman was a bit dangerous. She had unknowingly grasped his lifeline, understood his thoughts, and wanted to erode his mind, disintegrate his will, and corrupt his body.

As Bai Ye pondered this, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. The man was too cunning, taking every step with meticulous care, slowly pressing him down until he was drawn deeper and deeper into a path of no return.

Although Bai, the undercover agent, had a lot of inner monologues, it didn't affect his honest hand. Slowly, under Yuechan's questioning gaze, he took the small jade bottle into his hand.

"Boss Bai... how about an extra meal tonight?"

Yuechan's features were exquisite, and she seemed to be joking, but it was as if she had never been so close to anyone before, and her words were somewhat unnatural.

“No problem, you’re the customer, you’re in charge.” Bai Ye nodded in agreement, then found a spot and began processing the Void Beast meat.

Calling him "Boss Bai" filled him with satisfaction, like he was a handsome young man from a past life.

Although his situation is different from his previous life, and he only has two clients so far, does it matter?

The important thing is that he can resell anything Yuechan owns to his senior sister for double the price, only needing to use some wording to embellish the origin of the items.

Bai Ye was very serious and gained a lot, which gave him a lot of motivation.

On the contrary, Yuechan was unusually quiet. She sat on a blue stone, holding an ancient scroll, facing the moonlight. The moment she lowered her head, her hair cascaded down like a waterfall, involuntarily covering her profile and making her even more ethereal.

Clearly, this woman is incredibly stubborn and hasn't given up yet; she has that unyielding spirit.

However, as they looked, her brows suddenly furrowed, as did Bai Ye's.

At that moment, a faint tremor came from the ground beneath their feet. Through the moonlight, it was clearly visible that the sand and gravel beneath the ground were trembling continuously, and the frequency was getting higher and higher, as if some enormous creature was about to arrive.

This made the two of them, who had just relaxed, anxious again.

In the first half, apart from encountering a void beast, they didn't see a single living creature. But in the past few days, they've been chased by either formations or Venerables, which has almost given them a psychological trauma.

At that moment, the two of them took off into the air and looked towards the distant mountains. Unexpectedly, they witnessed a scene that shocked them.

It was a silver creature, resembling an upright ancient divine crocodile. It was only a hundred meters tall, not very large, but its entire body was silvery and flowed with astonishing divine radiance, as if it were chasing something.

"Divine Fire Realm!"

"Take another look," Bai Ye suddenly said.

"That's... a baby dragon?" Yuechan's beautiful eyes narrowed, and her breathing quickened involuntarily.

In front of the silver crocodile, a small purple dragon rose up, accompanied by a large cloud of mist. It opened its mouth and roared, its cry shaking the heavens and earth.

However, its body is really small, only one foot long, and its whole body is purple and shiny, surrounded by patches of divine light, shining with purple aura, which is very dazzling.

"Shouldn't it be the Evil Dragon Medicine?" Bai Ye wondered.

Yuechan's body stiffened slightly, her gaze became distant, and even her forehead twitched involuntarily. She had a feeling that the guy was saying she was stupid.

Fortunately, the divine medicine caught their attention. It was incredibly spiritual, with seven leaves resembling dragon claws and roots at the end. Its shape was like a wicked dragon, extremely flamboyant and arrogant.

The purple dragon leaped over a hundred meters high, radiating astonishing divinity. It breathed a breath of pent-up energy, accumulated over countless years, at the silver crocodile from afar, before disappearing into the earth in a flash. This sight enraged the silver crocodile, which roared repeatedly, wanting to inhale but forcibly restraining itself.

Generally speaking, divine medicines possess sentience, like half-grown children. This is especially true of the Evil Dragon Medicine, which is perhaps the most potent among divine medicines, and even its intelligence is not lacking.

"Can we catch it?" Yuechan's eyes shone brightly, clearly eager.

"Wake up, there are only two of us who have reached the Spirit Transformation stage. Even if it appears in front of us, we still can't catch it."

While divine medicines may not allow one to fly freely like elixirs of immortality, most of them are masters of earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a term used to describe a type of martial arts or martial arts that can be used to escape into the ground). Unless one can set up array patterns in advance to trap the opponent.

However, the Evil Dragon Medicine is extremely beneficial to those who have cultivated the True Dragon Treasure Technique, and Bai Ye still felt unwilling to give up on it.

"Come closer, we'll follow you."

"Hmm?" Yuechan looked at the waving figure with a puzzled expression, her little head immediately filled with vigilance.

You have to trust my professional ethics, okay?

"Then why did you touch my hand..."

"That's just to better transmit power and make it easier for you to integrate into the space."

Yuechan blinked her big eyes. Feeling the person so close to her, goosebumps rose on her hands as if she had been electrocuted. Her whole body tensed up. She had never been so close to anyone before.

Perhaps because of her experiences over this period of time, she neither felt aversion nor rejection, allowing the other party's spatial power to surge forth and envelop her.

However, this thought was immediately drawn to the scene in the distance. The little dragon reappeared, like a mischievous child. It wiggled its butt at the silver crocodile and then instantly disappeared into the earth.
