Chapter 580: Chapter 587: Can You Perform Pure Land of Bliss? (Second Update)
Yang Zhen… How terrifying?
The Ghost Pill Master suddenly burst into hearty laughter. His black cloak billowed without wind, creating a roaring sound. His body seemed as hollow as air, emanating a chillingly eerie aura.
“Is Yang Zhen really that terrifying? It seems you haven’t seen what I’m capable of. I’m a bit excited to see what kind of thrill Yang Zhen can bring me.”
At this point, the Ghost Pill Master’s voice grew murkier as he mumbled, “How many years has it been? I’ve forgotten how many years it’s been since I last felt this thrill. Life… is so dull.”
Fang Zhongjian looked at the Ghost Pill Master with shock and uncertainty. This guy was truly a madman. No one could predict his thoughts. His constant mood swings, especially when refining elixirs, were downright chilling.
Seeing the Ghost Pill Master’s demeanor, Feng Lingqiao’s expression grew even more worried as her eyes nervously darted towards the direction of Heavenly Snow Holy Domain’s people.
Feng Lingqiao knew that Yang Zhen might come. She was aware of certain things Yang Zhen would undoubtedly do. However, she could never have imagined Yang Zhen would choose this way to rescue her. Why hadn’t anyone from Mountain and River City’s Feng Family come yet?
When Fang Zhongjian kidnapped Feng Lingqiao, she asked Yang Zhen to go to Mountain and River City to save her grandfather. It wasn’t because she thought Yang Zhen could heal her grandfather’s severe injuries.
Feng Lingqiao asked Yang Zhen to go to Mountain and River City simply because she wanted him to inform the Feng Family about her abduction by Heavenly Spring Sacred Land.
Once the Feng Family received the news, they would surely spare no cost to reach Heavenly Snow Holy Domain to lend Yang Zhen a hand.
But… they hadn’t come.
Neither Yang Zhen, whom Feng Lingqiao had been anxiously waiting for, nor the Feng Family had shown up.
Perhaps their absence was for the best. At least Yang Zhen would be safe, and the Mountain and River Map wouldn’t fall into the hands of Heavenly Spring Sacred Land.
Just then, Feng Lingqiao gasped audibly, a look of panic and confusion in her eyes as she looked towards the direction of Heavenly Snow Holy Domain’s people.
“Oh?” The Ghost Pill Master followed Feng Lingqiao’s gaze with interest. He grinned and said, “That guy with a cat on his shoulder must be Yang Zhen, indeed impressive at first sight. But I wonder if his actual abilities match his appearance.”
Fang Zhongjian pondered for a moment and glanced at the Ghost Pill Master, warning, “I advise you not to underestimate Yang Zhen.”
The Ghost Pill Master roared with laughter, shrugged off his cloak, left the territory of the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain, and began to walk towards Yang Zhen.
Seeing this scene, everyone gasped in surprise but were quickly intrigued.
Everyone was already astonished by the Ghost Pill Master’s arrival, especially those disciples from the Heavenly Spring Sacred Land who were aware of his skills. They were particularly excited by this opportunity for the Sacred Land to display its power, which always set their blood boiling.
As the Ghost Pill Master steadily advanced towards Yang Zhen, everyone watched without blinking, their eyes bouncing back and forth between him and Yang Zhen.
Among all the people in the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain, a surprised Yang Zhen looked at the crowd in the elixir field and asked curiously, “So many people, are they all going to enter the relic?”
Mei Chaofen responded with a smile, “Of course, not everyone will go. However, these are indeed practitioners gathered from the Sacred Land. The relic is of utmost importance; we have to maintain control over everything. Once we enter the core of the relic, these people will be allowed free passage in and out of the relic.”
Yang Zhen suddenly understood. This agreed with the style of the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain, they really were the bold and reckless type.
After casually looking around, Yang Zhen asked, puzzlingly, “Where’s the practitioner at the Divine Transformation Stage?”
“He’s heading towards you… What?” Mei Chaofen was taken aback, staring at Yang Zhen strangely, “Wait, were you asking about the practitioner at the Divine Transformation Stage?”
“Did I say something wrong?” Yang Zhen was also baffled by Mei Chaofen’s reaction. He had thought he was asking an ordinary question.
The rest of the group also looked at Yang Zhen in puzzlement. Ji Yourong chuckled and said, “Nothing’s wrong. But, shouldn’t you be asking about the Ghost Pill Master first?”
Yang Zhen scanned the crowd and pointed a finger, “The Ghost Pill Master you referred to… Is it that guy over there?”
“How did you know?” Ji Yourong was taken aback.
Yang Zhen sneered, how could he not know? This guy was making a big scene, and among the thousands of practitioners in the entire pill field, he was the only one dressed like a television drama protagonist, as if he could morph wings just by flipping his cloak.
Speaking of wings, Yang Zhen inadvertently thought of the wings from the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain, which immediately excited him.
It seemed like he needed to bring up this matter. What was that wing called again? Yang Zhen had forgotten a bit.
With the right play on the relics and wings, two birds could be killed with one stone!
Seeing that Yang Zhen didn’t seem to give a damn about the Ghost Pill Master, Ji Yourong warned, “You’d better be careful, the Ghost Pill Master has strange methods and is very terrifying.”
Yang Zhen nodded, put on a smile, lifted his head and waved hello to the Ghost Pill Master, saying cheerfully, “Hi mate, how are you? How’s your mom? How’s your whole family?”
Everyone: “???”
Hearing Yang Zhen’s sudden outburst, everyone jumped in fright.
The Ghost Pill Master, on the other hand, had his hard-earned imposing manner demolished. He stared blankly at Yang Zhen and turned to ask Fang Zhongjian, “Is he… talking to me?”
“He’s the shy type…” Yang Zhen muttered and then shouted, “Mate, don’t be afraid. I’m not a good guy, oops, I mean, I’m a bad guy. Oh? Right, I’m a really low-key guy, so don’t worry about me stealing your thunder. Can we be honest with each other, okay?”
A crowd of people stared blankly at Yang Zhen, then at the Ghost Pill Master, who was frozen on the spot without knowing what to say or where to put his hands. They all had to suppress their bursting laughter.
Ji Yourong pursed her lips and turned her head, trying not to laugh. When she inadvertently saw the bewildered expression on Mei Chaofen’s face, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Fang Zhongjian couldn’t stop twitching at the corners of his mouth. However, for some reason, he felt secretly elated. Damn it, the Ghost Pill Master, thinking he was superior due to his strange methods, was now stupefied and speechless in Yang Zhen’s presence, right?
“What are you saying?” the Ghost Pill Master huffed coldly. Suddenly a heatwave gushed out next to him, the terrifying steam was like a raging fire. He walked towards Yang Zhen with a gloomy face.
Yang Zhen yelped and pulled Ji Yourong in front of him, not afraid of the Ghost Pill Master’s heat with her icy presence.
“What I mean is, I usually keep a low profile. So, how shall we compare?”
Yang Zhen poked his head out from behind Ji Yourong, looking eagerly at the Ghost Pill Master.
The Ghost Pill Master was stunned. He obviously didn’t expect Yang Zhen to ask such a question. How to compare? Haven’t they agreed upon it?
Both of them would make pills, they could attack each other during the process. Whoever had stronger skills and could successfully make a pill, would be the winner. The power that they represented would become the leader of this operation.
But how come when it came to Yang Zhen, another question ‘how to compete’ suddenly popped out?
The Ghost Pill Master was puzzled. He looked at Yang Zhen in astonishment and asked anxiously, “What do you mean?”
Yang Zhen was stunned. He turned to look at Ji Yourong and said, “Damn it, did you guys find a fool to be my opponent?”
“You!” The Ghost Pill Master’s voice was twisted.
Damn it, you’re speaking ambiguously. Who can understand what you’re trying to express?
Yang Zhen grinned at the Ghost Pill Master and after watching him for a while, he suddenly asked, “Since this is a competition, there should be a prize, right? If not, everyone won’t be happy. May I ask impertinently, can you dance the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss?”
“What?” The Ghost Pill Master frowned, “What land?”
