Perfect Double Agent

“It really works.” Bai Ye nodded, reached out and patted Taurus. As if time had reversed, red light reappeared on Taurus’s body in an instant.

At the same time, the intense tearing sensation spread throughout my body again, making me feel as if I were about to be completely burned.

"This is... Blood Soul Grass! You bastard, you actually used me for experiments!"

Taurus roared, his teeth almost grinding to powder. The drug's effects were too overpowering, constantly disrupting the vitality and balance within his body, causing his flesh to crack open again and again.

"It's not a big problem."

Bai Ye raised his hand and inscribed primordial runes, continuously imprinting them onto Taurus's body. At the same time, time reversed and reappeared. He would do this every time Taurus's body and primordial spirit were about to completely collapse.

"The Divine Guidance Technique can be used like this?" The witch was very calm, carefully observing the large number of runes on Taurus's body.

“Now that you’ve reached the inscription stage, if you don’t have suitable runes, you can consider inscribing the Divine Guidance Chapter and combining it with the Heaven-Severing Technique. It might bring you unexpected gains,” Bai Ye said.

This was a path he had once guessed, one that allowed him to surpass the ultimate realm in the Inscription Realm, laying the most solid foundation for the witch in this realm. In particular, the combination of Divine Guidance and Heaven Interception, one to seize heavenly secrets and the other to explore the essence of the Dao, was a perfect match.

Taurus glanced sideways and heard their conversation clearly. But to his surprise, the intense pain finally disappeared. His body seemed to have undergone some changes. When he moved gently, a mysterious power flowed within him, ready to attach itself to his body at any moment.

"It should be done!" Bai Ye whispered, slapping the bull's head, but the symbol in his palm failed to penetrate.

"You bastard..."

"Snapped!"

Another slap came down, time flies, and Taurus is aging at a visible speed.

"It can only hold off one wave, it's better than nothing."

"I got...that ability?!" Taurus was stunned, feeling a mix of surprise and an urge to burst into laughter, but then, "You bastard, how much Blood Soul Grass did you feed me?!"

“A normal first-generation cultivator would die around 100, but your true form is a bull, so you lasted until 150. I added 50 for you, which wasted a lot of my time searching for the ape demon’s lair.”

"Two hundred?!" Taurus was shocked, and at the same time felt a sense of fear. This bastard was a real scoundrel, actually using him, a first-generation cultivator, as an experiment!

“In that case, I can also look for the Golden Bodhi Fruit.” Bai Ye stood up and casually took the Golden Ox away. Although its strength was a bit lacking, it was still a first-generation being. With some training, it could be used to become an immortal, which wouldn’t be a problem. In addition, its bright skin color made it acceptable to him.

"Golden Bodhi Fruit? Is this it?" The witch flipped her hand, revealing a golden fruit. It was only the size of a fist, extremely dazzling, and emitted a captivating fragrance, making it very eye-catching.

"It really is a Golden Bodhi Fruit. Where did you get it?" Bai Ye asked in surprise.

"I picked three of the five small trees in the Heavenly Palace of Tianyun Mountain. When I was picking the fourth one, I accidentally stepped on an array pattern and ran into the depths of the Heavenly Palace."

The witch spoke so casually, but it must be quite dangerous there.

"Why didn't you take it out sooner? I've been looking for it for days. You have no conscience."

The witch stuck out her tongue. "I was just afraid you'd eat yourself to death. Even Taurus can succeed. I'm thinking my junior brother's luck shouldn't be bad, hehe."

Bai Ye nodded without asking further questions. Some things the witch wanted to say, she would say, and that wouldn't affect their relationship. Just like him, he also had one secret after another.

Now that they have obtained what they wanted, neither of them has chosen to leave, but instead continues to venture deeper into the region.

According to calculations, Blood Soul Grass is just the basic requirement; at least two hundred are needed, which is indeed a large quantity.

However, they did not notice that behind them, a graceful figure was always floating, like a ghost, watching their every move.

……

……

Several days passed, and the blood-red plains remained unchanged, but some changes had occurred in an ancient city.

"The first generation and the Holy Maiden of the Intercepting Heaven Sect?"

"It's them. The two little kids have been here for quite some time. They killed several of my men. Someone saw them on the ancient battlefield."

"I guess your men thought they were easy prey, didn't they? They dared to touch the heirs of such a powerful sect; they're incredibly audacious!"

Inside a restaurant, a group of fierce-looking men laughed incessantly, completely unrestrained and without any regard for consequences.

“They are indeed a fat sheep. I heard that the reason they crossed the river is to find a divine medicine.” A burly man said with a smile.

"Boss Ruan, you've been gone for decades. You didn't come here with them, did you?" someone asked.

"I did come with them, I was just two days late, but the news is true," Boss Ruan said with a smile.

This floor is full of people at the Divine Fire Realm. Some are mercenary group leaders, some are rogue cultivators, and some are notorious thieves. Without exception, they are all ruthless and dare to do anything.

"Those direct descendants have too many treasures, and it's common for them to accidentally capsize in the gutter. However, I heard that the first generation of the Demon Sunflower Garden has also come, presumably for the first generation of the Intercepting Heaven Sect."

"The Demon Sunflower Garden?!" All the powerful experts at the Divine Fire level were shocked by this news. It meant that the first great war might take place on this land.

However, some people thought more deeply, especially Boss Ruan. The relationship between Demon Sunflower Garden and Sword Valley is extremely good. The fact that the first generation of Demon Sunflower Garden took the initiative to attack may not be as simple as asserting sovereignty. It is more likely that they were misled by others.

Chapter 89 Qilin Insect

Legend has it that at the very center of the blood-red ancient battlefield, a peerless master once passed away, but no one knows exactly how strong he was.

However, the blood, bones, runes, and Dao of that powerful figure were all imprinted on the center of the Crimson Ancient Battlefield, thus forming a unique forbidden area.

Ancient legends say that if one can enter the forbidden zone, one may obtain unparalleled fortune, and even more likely, the legacy left behind by that supreme powerhouse.

Whether it's true or not, nobody knows, and nobody can get close to that area.

But on this day, a man and a woman walked in and stepped onto the edge of this forbidden zone.

The atmosphere here is extremely terrifying. On the blood-red ground, there are piles of white bones, forming mountains. There are golden divine bones, as well as huge silver beast bones, and even the skulls of gods. Countless skeletons are piled together, making this place look like a purgatory.

However, among the bones, there were also precious flowers and plants that occasionally shimmered with the glow of dawn, as well as vibrant vines. They even found a purple sacred herb that emitted an intoxicating medicinal fragrance.

It's like a place of extreme death, yet it harbors a unique vitality.

Is it Purple Mansion Grass?

Both Bai Ye and the witch were surprised, looking at the small purple grass growing in the cracks of a golden bone. It had six leaves, was shrouded in purple light, and swayed with flowing light, making it extremely eye-catching.

This is an extremely rare sacred medicine that can enhance and stabilize the primordial spirit, cleanse the divine consciousness, and purify the physical body. It has a very strong effect on cultivators.

Legend has it that in those distant times, there may have been a Purple Mansion Divine Herb and a Purple Mansion Longevity Herb!

The witch swallowed hard, her eyes shining like a greedy child. "What a treat!"

"It's a bit troublesome."

This restricted area wasn't just accessible to them; others could approach it too. Yet, the sacred herb remained untouched, which speaks volumes.

Bai Ye raised his hand, took out a forbidden artifact of a true god, and threw it towards the mountain of bones in front of him.

However, the seemingly harmless Bone Mountain suddenly went berserk as if it had been violated.

Various rays of light bloomed and fell, shimmering and colorful, like the Milky Way in the heavens, instantly shattering the forbidden artifact of the true god level.

At the same time, a violent change occurred in the entire void. The broken chains of divine order manifested, crisscrossing and intertwining with ancient runes as numerous and chaotic as stars, without any orderly arrangement.

"Is that box still there?"

"A bone box? Yes... What's it for?" the witch asked, taking out a six-sided bone box.

"Its uses are great; its defensive capabilities are unmatched in this upper realm."

"Um... wait a minute... there's something else inside..."

"You were pretending to eat..."

With a snap, the box was activated and one side detached on its own. However, the pile of black, white, red, and purple underwear inside made even Bai Ye freeze in shock.

The witch moved swiftly, sweeping away her clothes with a single wave of her hand. "I only like black, that's a collectible... a collectible..."

"You spendthrift! Such a good life-saving item, and you actually used it to store clothes. Senior sister, I think if I ever need to fart one day, you'll definitely be part of the reason." Bai Ye laughed.

"Is it as exaggerated as you say?" The witch chuckled. She genuinely didn't know and thought it was just a cleverly designed box, albeit a very sturdy one.

However, the spirit body did survive. Its body shrank and hid inside the bone box, which was then thrown over by the main body. Rolling rapidly under the cascading order, the violent symbols and chains of divine rules caused the bone box to emit a faint glow the moment they landed on it, blocking all external attacks.

"This is really a treasure... Will it be impossible to open from the inside?"

Clearly, the witch's worries were unnecessary; as long as the method of opening it is known, it can be opened even from the inside.

The bone box was propped up, and after taking the Purple Mansion Sacred Herb, it did not stop, but instead headed towards the center of White Bone Mountain.

Bai Ye suddenly remembered something. In the original novel, Ye Qingxian and Shi Hao's first encounter seemed to have happened here, where the two of them were exchanging compliments.

At this time of day, Ye Qingxian is probably still wandering around somewhere.

But that's not the point. The point is that there is a king of insects there, called the Qilin Insect. This kind of insect is extremely rare, and it is said that only one in a thousand generations can appear.

However, once the Qilin Insect evolves into the Insect Emperor, not only will its combat power skyrocket, but it will also possess the divine sense to find supreme immortal materials, which is where its greatest value lies.

“There really is one…” Bai Ye was excited. From his perspective, through his spirit body, he could see a cocoon, more than three inches long, slowly swaying in an open space in the center of the pile of bones.

It is mystical, radiating a rich vitality, as if it were breathing, autonomously absorbing and releasing the essence of heaven and earth.

However, if such a small thing were discovered, it would be enough to cause a group of gods in the outside world to fight tooth and nail.

"Did you find anything?" The witch stood on tiptoe, her beautiful eyes peeking out, but the central area was completely obscured by a thick fog.

"It should be a Qilin insect, currently still in its cocoon. Legend has it that once this insect is born, it can almost always evolve into an insect emperor. It's just that, like you, it eats a lot in the early stages."

The witch turned around, her eyes bright and clear, and rolled her eyes at Bai Ye. "It's only natural for junior brother to support senior sister. If you don't eat more, how can you grow a figure that rivals Da Yuechan's!"

"It's a bit difficult..." It would have been fine if the witch hadn't mentioned it, but the moment she did, he couldn't help but recall the scene he had witnessed before, a scene so stunning that it was unforgettable.

"So, for the sake of a beautiful figure, this enchantress is willing to transform into a glutton, and then evolve into an unparalleled enchantress who can bewitch all living beings, wreaking havoc on the world, and waiting for her peerless senior brother to come and eliminate the demons and save all living beings from their suffering."

"Then your senior brother was beaten to death on his way there."

"And you? Aren't you coming to save your senior sister?" The witch glanced sideways, smiling with an ageless cunning that made it difficult to discern her true emotions.

Bai Ye simply smiled and remained silent, watching the returning spirit transform into a rain of light, merging into his body, along with the three items in his hand: a small blade of grass, an insect pupa, and a bone box.

But just as the witch was about to press for answers, the blood mist in the distance suddenly surged, and at the same time, a surprised and doubtful voice came from within the mist.

"It smells so good...it smells like holy medicine..."

It was a purple beast-like shadow, shaped like a calf, that crashed through a cloud of blood mist as it arrived, its large, bell-like eyes sweeping over and fixing on Bai Ye and the witch.

The crimson mist in the ancient battlefield can block divine sense, but it cannot block a dog's nose; this is one of the opponent's special abilities.

"Two brats from the Intercepting Heaven Sect... So it was you! We've been looking for you for ages!" The purple dog laughed wildly, its laughter filled with rage and violence. Like a bolt of lightning, it charged forward, its early-stage Venerable aura surging forth.

But in the next instant, a golden spear shot over, like an immortal light, causing its body to stiffen. Its entire body was instantly pierced through from head to tail. Compared to the Silver Armor King, this big dog was not very strong.

However, this is just the beginning.

"Found them. They're here, and they even killed my spirit pet."
