Chapter 422: Chapter 428: Go Give Birth to Monkeys! (Fourth Update)
No one knew what had just happened. It seemed that after the power within Yang Zhen’s body erupted, the Void Power had disappeared. When everyone opened their eyes again, Yang Zhen’s clothes were still intact, the Scoundrel Cat and the Rascal Chicken had returned to Yang Zhen’s side, and the three of them were making a racket in the Ice Palace.
This bizarre spectacle gave everyone the feeling that they had seen a ghost.
By the way, where was Liang Lie?
Those who woke up looked around, and after seeing the blood left by Liang Lie, they shook all over, before letting out a sigh of relief.
So, time didn’t rewind after all!
On the Ice Palace, the Scoundrel Cat murmured, “Damn, kiddo, you forgot to wipe off that fool’s blood. We’re exposed now.”
The Rascal Chicken paused, peering down at the blood on the ground. Seeing everyone staring doubtfully at the bloodstains, it grimaced.
“Such a failure. How on earth did he manage to grow so big?” The Scoundrel Cat grumbled, cursing Liang Lie’s ancestors for eighteen generations.
Yang Zhen just shrugged carelessly, “No problem. The more ambiguous things are, the more suspicious people become. Anyway, no matter how they guess, they’ll never know if they’re right or wrong.”
The Scoundrel Cat gave him a puzzled nod, then asked cluelessly, “So did you or did you not assimilate the Void Power?”
“Of course not!” Yang Zhen exclaimed, “Damn, is it really that easy to comprehend?”
The Scoundrel Cat was stunned. He and the Rascal Chicken exchanged glances, then turned back to Yang Zhen and asked, “So where did the Void Power go? Has it disappeared?”
Looking at the disconcerted expression on the Scoundrel Cat’s face, Yang Zhen pointed to his Dantian, and said, “It didn’t disappear. It’s right here. It seems to have turned into a seed. I don’t really know what’s going on. Anyway, it’s been quite docile, just a little disobedient.”
“Turned into a seed?” The Scoundrel Cat’s eyes bulged, his expression strange as he said, “That’s a new one. Rascal Chicken, did you ever see that?”
“Nope!” Rascal Chicken answered simply.
Everyone on the ground was staring at Yang Zhen in the Ice Palace, trembling with uncertainty. Whoever was about to ask Yang Zhen about his curiosity had to hold back, as Yang Zhen hurriedly said, “Let’s not bother about the seed. I have so many seeds saved in my PC, I am fed up. Let’s take over this Ice palace first.”
The Scoundrel Cat’s eyes shone brightly as he looked at Yang Zhen, obviously intrigued by the seeds that Yang Zhen had mentioned. Hearing this, he asked with an odd look, “Are you sure you can take over this Ice Palace?”
Finding it a little odd and curious, Yang Zhen thought neither the Divine Soul Imprint on the Ice Palace belonged to the Sky Crying Great Saint nor he could figure out how he moved the Ice Palace into the icy chamber in the first place. According to the Santiago Trio’s analysis, he probably robbed others without erasing the Divine Soul Imprint.
Yang Zhen put in quite a bit of effort to remove the nearly destroyed Divine Soul Imprint. He patted the Ice Palace and said, “You underestimate me, simpleton. Just watch!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Zhen swung his hands and placed them on the Ice Palace.
Buzz—!
A humming sound resonated, and the entire Ice Palace instantly erupted with an enormous light. Astonishingly, it began to shrink at a rapid pace and eventually transformed into an ice model the size of a palm.
This unusual sight took everyone by surprise, and their eyes filled with greed.
Yet, no one dared to compete with Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen was just too terrifying.
The Scoundrel Cat was hooting excitedly, and even the Rascal Chicken was dazzled, staring at the beautiful model of the Ice Palace in Yang Zhen’s hand.
Yang Zhen took a deep breath and muttered, “Damn, nature is indeed marvelous. How could such a huge Ice Palace shrink to this extent?”
The Scoundrel Cat scoffed, “You’re such a greenhorn. You haven’t seen the power of the Sumeru Ring, which can turn a whole mountain into a grain of sand!”
“Oh wow!” Yang Zhen was amazed, “Is there really such an impressive magic?” The cheap cat nodded, saying, “Of course, but that is already the legendary Emperor Skill. I don’t know if you will ever have the chance to witness it in this lifetime.”
Yang Zhen grinned, saying, “Well, this Sao Saint here isn’t too worried about that. If I can’t witness others using it, then I’ll just cultivate until I reach the Great Emperor Realm myself!”
“You’re awesome!” The cheap cat looked on in shock.
Sao Chicken also looked at Yang Zhen in surprise. “Boasting!”
Enraged, Yang Zhen pointed at the two goods and cursed, “You better believe it maybe one day when this Sao Saint here is in a good mood, I’ll break through to the Great Emperor Realm and show you.”
With this statement, the faces of Palace Master Liu and his company, who had just approached the group, turned strange. Even Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er exchanged glances and couldn’t help but laugh.
Peak Master Mo laughed heartily, saying, “Young friend Yang truly has high aspirations. It astonished me to find such profound determination within you. It makes me feel somewhat ashamed.”
Yang Zhen waved his hand and said, “No need to feel ashamed. I was just bluffing, you don’t need to take it seriously.”
Peak Master Mo momentarily froze, then laughed bitterly.
Mo Xueling snickered, giving Yang Zhen a look, and said to Mo Xueling, “Yang
Zhen always talks like this, Father, you shouldn’t take him seriously.”
After speaking, Mo Xueling looked at Yang Zhen with wide, gemstone-blue eyes, her expression curious, and asked, “Were you successful?”
At her words, everyone present tensed up, all of them staring nervously at Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen took a deep breath, revealing a hint of regret on his face and said in
a tone of disappointment, “I was just a bit short!”
“What do you mean by ‘just a bit short’?” Mo Xueling nearly pounced on Yang Zhen to strangle him after hearing this.
The rest of the crowd also looked extremely anxious, as though they could all share in Yang Zhen’s success.
Yang Zhen sneered, saying, “By ‘just a bit short,’ I mean ‘just a bit short of success.’ You all saw it, the damned Void Power ran away at the end. It just ran off like that! If it hadn’t run too fast, would this Sao Saint here not have made it? Pfft, I don’t buy it! Next time I see it…”
“Enough, enough!” Mo Xueling glared at Yang Zhen irritably, saying, “It’s already lucky enough that you managed to save your life. You actually still want to succeed? If you really succeeded, wouldn’t that astonish the whole continent, you smug!”
Regret was written all over Yang Zhen’s face!
Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er glanced at each other, both with odd smiles on their faces. They looked deeply at Yang Zhen, not knowing what was going on in the minds of these two beautiful young ladies.
Palace Master Liu sighed and said, “Such a pity, but Yang Young Friend, you must have been mentally prepared when you were trying to refine the Void Power. If so, it’s not too difficult to accept.”
Besides sighing together with him, Yang Zhen found himself at a loss for words.
He surely couldn’t shout to the world that he had managed to refine the Void Power into a seed and had stored it in his dantian, could he?
In reality, even Yang Zhen himself didn’t know whether he had succeeded or failed.
After grasping a glimpse of the Void Realm, the nothingness world that Yang Zhen had found himself in, exploded completely. He was blasted out, and the Void Powers seemed to turn into a seed on their own volition and had gone into Yang Zhen’s dantian. Yang Zhen wasn’t in control.
Now that the Void Power had turned into a seed, Yang Zhen wasn’t in control of it. Not only did Yang Zhen feel he wasn’t successful, but he also felt as if he had sowed a time bomb in his belly. It was extremely odd.
“May I ask what Young Friend Yang plans on doing next?” Peak Master Mo suddenly asked.
Everyone’s gaze fell on Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen looked slightly startled, grinned, and said, “As for me, I’ll find some idyllic place with lil’ maiden, give birth to a’ bunch of kids, and live the life of an immortal.”
Everyone was collectively stunned..
