The Devilish Immortal Chapter 163 - Greater Strength

Chapter 163 Greater Strength

The woman listened, with tears running down her face. She took the Tianxuan Holy Rattan with her trembling hands, and her eyes were filled with hope again. She nodded and snapped the rattan into two parts, one for herself, and the other, for the young blood dragon.

After only half an hour, the young blood dragon howled aloud, following which, a golden hue swept over it. Its body grew much longer than before, and it sprouted two new wings on its back. Then, the woman refined her aura gradually and regained her vigor, although her cultivation was still at the Early-stage of Fairy Immortal.

At the moment, the Million-Spirits Blood Pearl was in Lyu Liang’s hand. Seeing the woman’s gradual recovery, he nodded to the brother and sister over his shoulder, and prepared to leave.

But just as Lyu Liang turned around, the woman said softly, “Please wait for a minute!”

Lyu Liang was a bit apprehensive and thought to himself, “Did I trust the wrong person? Is she about to go back on her words?”

He turned to her and asked her, “Now that you’ve recovered, is there anything else?”

The woman was confused, but she suddenly realized the cause of Lyu Liang’s concern. She dragged the young blood dragon over, nodded, and then, both of them knelt before Lyu Liang!

Lyu Liang was stunned and knew that he had misunderstood her intention. He walked forward to lift her and said with a smile, “Senior, just as I said, you don’t need to think too much about it. It was my pleasure to be able to help a mother.”

The woman rose with a grateful smile and said gently, “We can’t repay your kindness, but we will try in any way we can. We wild beasts, can be both hateful and grateful! I’ve heard of your fame during my healing period. I am constrained by the Power of Law, which may prevent my helping you in any battle. But since my child has already reached the Third Wildness level, he can be a mighty force for you. I hope you can take him with you, and let him a.s.sist you when necessary.”

Lyu Liang was shocked, because he had never expected that the woman would repay his kindness in this way. He, indeed, wanted the young blood dragon. Judging by its fighting capacity and the Field Domain, its terrifying talent, it would be undoubtedly, a mighty trump card. Especially, once it had leveled up its cultivation to what equated to the Almighty Immortal level for the Human Clan, Lyu Liang would undoubtedly gain much greater strength.

However, Lyu Liang insisted on following his principles. He waved his hand and said, “Thank you for your kindness! But I saved you, because I followed my conscience. If this causes both of you to lose your freedom, I would feel uneasy inside!”

The woman again insisted, and with a firm gaze, said “You have your principles, and we wild beasts, also have our beliefs. If we can’t repay your kindness, I will kill myself straight away!”

Looking at the woman’s serious face, Lyu Liang thought, “Although wild beasts are different from demons, they hold similar principles. The senior seems so insistent, that it seems that I can’t decline her kindness!”

“Idiot! What are you hesitating for? Accept it immediately! Do you know how covetable and rare it is, to have a wild beast willing to follow you! Wild beasts outstrip the same-stage cultivators, by at least one level. The young blood dragon will be like a Tao Master fighting for you! Be quick! Don’t waste the chance!” Liu Jiawen, who had been very anxious, messaged him, through gritted teeth. She thought inside, “Why does fortune always favor such a fool?”

“All right! If so, I’ll accept it! Please instruct me in the days ahead! But I have to make it clear beforehand, that when I am able to enter the s.p.a.ce of G.o.ddess Nyu Wa someday, I will send you back to the forbidden area of Remote Antiquity. At that time, you would have already repaid my kindness! Is that okay?” Lyu Liang clasped his hands and accepted the woman’s offer.

The woman nodded approvingly, and said with a smile, “You are not only powerful and fortunate,

“But also kind and generous. It’s indeed our good fortune to meet you here. Although I have recovered, I need some time to regain my strength. Please allow me to rest in your immortal-standard cave residence. My child will establish a Life-Soul relation with you, and he will also live in the cave residence with me. If you need any help, you can just summon him, in your mind.”

Then, the young blood dragon implanted a soul into Lyu Liang’s Divine Soul, and went into the cave residence with the woman.

A moment later, the woman’s voice came from the cave residence, “Savior, since I have mastered the Remote Antiquity formation and have some materials with me, I can upgrade your cave residence a little. Not only will the room be enlarged, but the concentration of the Spiritual Qi will be increased. Are you agreeable with that?”

Lyu Liang went wild with joy—since he had the puppets, he had felt that the cave residence was somehow small. He had previously tried to use the Virtual Land and the Heaven-Burning Xumi Formation to restore them.

But the Land Spirit and the huge bear negated its possibility—it worked, yet Lyu Liang’s cultivation was not up to the standard, to do so. Only when Lyu Liang improved his cultivation level to that of Tao Master, could he take others into the Virtual Land and the formation.

After a while, the woman announced that she had finished transforming the cave residence. With a glance through his Divine Sense, Lyu Liang grinned from ear to ear.

It was not a small change, but a significant transformation! The cave size was a dozen times larger, and separated areas had been set aside for different purposes. Besides, the concentration of the Spiritual Qi could even rival that of the Virtual Land. The woman’s Remote Antiquity formation was indeed extraordinary!

Now that they had settled their affairs, the three prepared to leave.

Although the experience was thrilling, the result was quite fruitful. Lyu Liang had obtained, not only the last Million-Spirits Blood Pearl, but also a mighty force.

The water became clear again. When the three returned to Fog-Moon Pavilion, they concealed all traces of the blood dragons. They only told everyone that the place had been restored to its former peaceful state, so people need not worry about the poison anymore.

Kong Niu’s mother recovered from the poison torture, after taking the All-One Pill and thanked Lyu Liang, over and over again. If Liu Jiawen hadn’t threatened him to keep it a secret, he would have told her the truth.

Kong Niu’s response was even more dramatic. He insisted on following Lyu Liang, with an “Either I go with you, or I’ll die” att.i.tude.

In the end, Lyu Liang excused himself, citing the rules again, claiming that he would pick Kong Niu up, after the victory of the war. Either that, or Kong Niu could look for him, after reaching the Fairy Immortal level. As such, there was no way for Kong Niu to go with him.

After hearing the rules, Kong Niu didn’t insist anymore. But he kept clamoring until the three left Fog-Moon Pavilion, “Boss, wait for me! I will reach the Fairy Immortal level as soon as possible, and then you can’t leave me behind then!”

After that, Lyu Liang tried to contact Zhu Yu to give him the good news, that he had obtained the Million-Spirits Blood Pearl. But no matter how he hard he tried, he could not get any response from the Ethereal Immortal-Sound Sh.e.l.l. Even when Liu Jiawen took out her main one, the result was the same. At last, they concluded that Zhu Yu must have entered the relic of the Immortal Devil, where there was a barrier to block all exchanges through Divine Souls.

“Idiot, let me fight for you! My brother will join too. Our cultivation has reached the Peak of Almighty Immortal, and we are more powerful than you, in magic treasures and secret manuals. Now that we can’t find brother Zhu, we will just stay and take care of you!” Rolling her eyes, Liu Jiawen had already decided where she would go.

“Sister, what about going home first? I came down with a Spirit Realm talisman, but you left without a word. Grandfather and father are all concerned about you!” Liu Jiahao was somehow hesitant.

Lyu Liang also waved his hand and said, “Thanks for Fairy’s kindness. But wars are definitely not the usual fights, and individual strength cannot influence the war trend. Besides, you have helped me a lot and a.s.sisted me in fulfilling brother Zhu’s wish. Just follow your brother’s advice and go home first. Don’t make your family worry about you. Or are you just afraid that your father will teach you a lesson after you return?”

“Who, who is afraid of that! I just feel uncomfortable when I see the aggression here! You want me to go home, but I will go with you! I hate those evil guys who invade others’ lands and kill innocent people, and now that I have the opportunity, I will help you, before brother Zhu comes out!” Liu Jiawen said resolutely, and refused to go home.

Lyu Liang looked at Liu Jiahao helplessly, who was also resigned, yet not too bothered. Seeing that his sister was determined to help Lyu Liang, Liu Jiahao nodded and said, “Sister is also right. Anyway, we have to wait for brother Zhu, so we will go with you now.” He then turned to Liu Jiawen, “However, sister, you must listen to me during this period, and we, in turn, must listen to Lyu Liang! Wars are not games, so you can’t act rashly or go anywhere, without my permission. Understand?”

Liu Jiawen was evidently reluctant to listen to Lyu Liang, but seeing her brother’s serious face, she had no choice but to agree.

“If so, count me in!” When the three were discussing this, a familiar voice came from the distance.

“Sister Xuan! I have missed you so much!” Liu Jiawen rushed out first and gave Zheng Xuan a mighty hug. But then she drew back in amazement, and with her hands covering her mouth, said “Sister Xuan, how did your cultivation… And where’s your Immortal General talisman? Ah ah ah, have you really…”

Zheng Xuan scratched Liu Jiawen’s nose and said, with a relieved smile, “Now among the eight Immortal Generals in the s.p.a.ce of G.o.ddess Nyu Wa, the t.i.tle ‘Illusory Sea’ is open. I missed the most important thing for this t.i.tle, but I feel happy to be rid of the shackles.”

Liu Jiahao also stepped forward and greeted her, “Sister Xuan’s bravery is so admirable! So did brother Zhu go in alone?”

Zhu Yu’s name caused some concern to flash across Zheng Xuan’s face, and then she replied softly, “He doesn’t want me to go with him. And I also know that, although my cultivation in the Mortal World is at the Peak of Almighty Immortal, I lag too far behind him. Probably, in the face of danger, I will only create problems for him. Before he left, he deliberately asked me to look for you here, so that we can unite and help Lyu Liang.”

Holding Zheng Xuan’s arm, Liu Jiawen said, with a joyful smile, “Sister Xuan, you are too modest. Your strength is almost the same as brother Zhu’s. It’s this idiot’s grave fortune to have you here a.s.sist him! Hey, I mean you. Isn’t that right?” She didn’t forget to taunt Lyu Liang, at the end.

Lyu Liang laughed gladly, thanked the three, cupped his hands and said, “It’s indeed my great fortune to have your a.s.sistance, and I naturally treasure it and feel very grateful. I only hope that you will take care of yourselves when we are done with the enemy, we will help brother Zhu fulfill his wishes, together! Oh yes, all of you can retain your cultivation in the Mortal World at the Peak of Almighty Immortal, but why do brother Zhu and the people of the Central Heaven District of the Pangu Origin world, have to cultivate from the Early-stage of Fairy Immortal?”

“Ah, you don’t know about that? You can beg me for the information! I won’t keep it if I know or cheat you if I don’t know. Just beg from me! Ho ho ho!” Liu Jiawen finally seized the chance to make fun of Lyu Liang, and had a triumphant expression on her face.

“That’s enough. No jokes now! Brother Lyu, all of us came down with special treasures so that we could retain our cultivation at a higher level. But brother Zhu and those of the Heavenly Alliance came without any preparation, and naturally could not avoid the erosion of the power of the Law of Heaven.” Liu Jiahao explained briefly, and Lyu Liang understood at once.

Now that the four were together, they didn’t waste any time and flew directly to Vine Country to meet Yang Ying and Wen Ying, who had been waiting there. After a brief introduction, all of them were already familiar with each other.

At this moment, Lyu Liang did not need to stay any longer and led his companions to the transmission formation in Jibo Territory.
