Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 2100 - 2082: Leading the Way
"Boom!"
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
"Bang!"
...
The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard seemed like a punching bag, being knocked into the air by Fang Yan again and again, never touching the ground at all. This situation had thoroughly bewildered the Three-Eyed Lizard...
This is too much bullying the Demon Beasts!
The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard was feeling incredibly aggrieved inside. How did he meet such a freak like Fang Yan? His speed could rival that of a Demon Beast, and this was still human strength! Moreover, this young man’s strength was too immense, even more exaggerated than Demon Beasts. What kind of situation is this? He never imagined he would be so mistreated by a human like this, it was truly a great humiliation!
But now, facing Fang Yan, he had no options at all. Fang Yan’s speed surpassed his reactions, so he couldn’t detect Fang Yan at all, resorting to letting Fang Yan do whatever he wished to...
Right now, the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard was on the verge of tears. His most potent attack method was poison, but it had no effect on Fang Yan, whose skin armor had high defensive power. Without exaggeration, even if he lay there and let someone in the Human Immortal Realm hack him, he wouldn’t be hurt. But this exaggerated defense was nonexistent in front of Fang Yan—every punch penetrated his skin, affecting his bones directly. If he didn’t use Demon Energy to protect himself, his organs and intestines would have been battered long ago!
After beating it for an hour, Fang Yan felt it was enough, so he stopped and looked at the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard, who was lying motionless on the ground, asking, "So, will you continue?" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
"No... no... no more, please... please stop..." The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard replied immediately upon hearing Fang Yan say this. For a Demon Venerable late-stage Demon Beast to be bullied like this by a Human Immortal Realm late-stage human, this was utterly disgraceful. If Fang Yan kept hitting him further, his little life would be lost!
"Then can you tell me what’s down there?" Fang Yan looked at the Three-Eyed Lizard, smiling, "Don’t lie to me. I can easily evaporate this pool completely, and by then, the truth will come to light. If you hide anything, I won’t hesitate to take you out."
Though the words sounded humorous, they were anything but when they reached the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard’s ears. He knew Fang Yan wasn’t joking; if he tried to hide anything, Fang Yan truly would kill him. For Fang Yan, killing him wasn’t difficult at all!
"Below... below there’s an Underground Palace..." The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard didn’t dare to hide anything at this moment, answering quickly. Having lived for thousands of years, he truly didn’t wish to die here!
"An Underground Palace? There’s an Underground Palace beneath the pool?" Fang Yan asked in confusion upon hearing the Three-Eyed Lizard’s words. Wasn’t this the Misty Swamp, so why was there an Underground Palace?
"There is an Underground Palace. I found it accidentally, and then I would sleep and cultivate in it. If I hadn’t met you today, I wouldn’t have appeared at all..." The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard answered at this time. The Underground Palace was initially his lair, but now since Fang Yan was eyeing it, the treasures in the Underground Palace would all belong to Fang Yan. When thinking about this, his heart was bleeding, yet facing such a powerful Fang Yan, he had no choice but to confess for self-preservation.
"Then I better check it out!" After hearing the Three-Eyed Lizard, Fang Yan’s eyes brightened; he trusted the lizard’s words now. Nonetheless, Demon Beasts wouldn’t build Underground Palaces, so it should be man-made. In this situation, he certainly wouldn’t pass up the chance.
Glancing at the Three-Eyed Lizard, Fang Yan asked, "This pool is unusual, how do you go down there?"
"I rely on this body’s defense to descend, but you..." The Three-Eyed Lizard answered immediately; his tough skin and flesh had no issue going down, but seemingly Fang Yan, as a human, truly had no way to enter.
Upon hearing the Three-Eyed Lizard’s words, Fang Yan understood what the lizard meant, and he said to him calmly, "Watch on the side, don’t play tricks. Otherwise, I’ll roast you!"
"No... I won’t..." The Three-Eyed Lizard became instantly nervous upon hearing Fang Yan, quickly answering. After saying this, he immediately lay down to sleep; now, he couldn’t escape, or he would have fled long ago.
Seeing the Three-Eyed Lizard truly feared his strength, not daring to have any ulterior motives, Fang Yan activated the Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art once again through the Annihilation Thunder Flame, starting to roast the pool in front again...
...
Elsewhere, Li Xing transformed into an old man and appeared in Xuantian City, one of the major cities in the Qianxuan Cultivation Realm. Under Fang Yan’s commission, he needed to help Fang Yan acquire a material called Boundless Jade Dew. Having traversed numerous Cultivation Worlds, he had many avenues for finding items.
Looking at the auction house in front of him, Li Xing showed a faint smile and walked right in. Under the reception of the staff, Li Xing stated his purpose and successfully met the owner of the auction house, Wang Teng.
"I’m looking for a material called Boundless Jade Dew. Do you have any way to find it?" Li Xing asked Wang Teng in front of him.
"Boundless Jade Dew... I haven’t heard of this thing before. But what does it look like? Could you tell me? I’ll see if I have ever come across it." Upon hearing that Li Xing was looking for Boundless Jade Dew, Wang Teng was momentarily stunned. After carefully thinking it over, he confirmed that he hadn’t heard of it, but he didn’t close the conversation entirely. Instead, he wanted to ask what exactly Boundless Jade Dew looked like. After all, many materials are unknown by name, and maybe Boundless Jade Dew is one of those materials; it’s hard to say.
"Here is a pattern of Boundless Jade Dew, along with its related information." Hearing this, Li Xing took out the prepared pattern and related information and handed it to Wang Teng for a look. All of these were sent to him by Fang Yan via Communication Spirit Stone, and he just had someone make a copy.
Wang Teng took the pattern and looked at it intently, his expression very complicated, mumbling to himself, completely unable to determine...
Li Xing had seen this kind of situation many times and could basically confirm that this time it was another fruitless endeavor. Thinking of this, Li Xing was also curious about what Fang Yan wanted to do with those super materials. He had already traveled to several powerful Cultivation Worlds, but there was still no news. It proved how rare these materials were, and he didn’t even understand how Fang Yan knew about these things and the related pattern information.
But Wang Teng didn’t speak, so Li Xing didn’t say much either. He could only sit by the side, drinking tea and waiting.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed. Li Xing finally lost all patience, ready to get up and take his leave. Yet, just as he was about to do so, he suddenly heard an urgent shout from Wang Teng!
"I remembered, I remembered!" Wang Teng’s expression was very excited. He felt that he had seen this pattern before, but he just couldn’t recall where he had seen it, which was why he hesitated for so long. He finally remembered the origin of this thing!
"You remembered?" Seeing Wang Teng like this, Li Xing became excited as well, looking at Wang Teng and saying.
"I told you this pattern looked familiar, like I’ve seen it somewhere before. Now I finally remember where I’ve seen it." Looking at the excited Li Xing, Wang Teng continued, "This thing was auctioned at my auction house over a decade ago, but back then, it wasn’t called Boundless Jade Dew, but Nameless Immortal Water. It was later taken by the Wind-Riding Sect at the auction, but whether it’s still with the Wind-Riding Sect now, I don’t know."
"Wind-Riding Sect?" Li Xing, hearing this name, wondered. He hadn’t heard of the Wind-Riding Sect in the city; what kind of Sect was it?
"The Wind-Riding Sect is in the west of the continent; that auction was a large one, prepared for ten years, and they came to bid for it, then left Xuantian City afterward." Hearing Li Xing say this, Wang Teng immediately explained.
"I see! Here is your reward." As soon as Li Xing got this answer, he immediately stood up, tossed a bag to Wang Teng, and then disappeared from the room.
After confirming that Li Xing had left, Wang Teng opened the bag left by Li Xing; inside the Space Bag were hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones, which made him incredibly happy. Turning around, he also left the room.
...
Fang Yan activated the Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art, a blazing sun hovered over the pond, continuously steaming. The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard watched the diminishing water in the pond, increasingly fearful of Fang Yan, not daring to do anything more or say anything further...
A dozen or more hours later, the pond water was finally dried up, revealing the pond’s bottom.
On the sidewalls of the pond’s bottom, there was a large hole, pitch black, with nothing visible. At the very bottom were numerous pits and hollows, most likely the hiding places of those bugs from before.
"Lead the way!" Glancing at the pond’s bottom, Fang Yan directly instructed the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard. With this local creature leading the way, he knew that he would certainly avoid many detours.
The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard didn’t dare defy him and immediately jumped from the pond’s edge. Fang Yan followed closely behind as the human and beast entered the pitch-black hole. The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard was afraid of moving too fast and drawing Fang Yan’s attention, leading to its own death, so it maintained a constant speed while leading the way ahead.
Upon entering this Underground Palace, Fang Yan understood why the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard referred to it as such. Turns out, everything below was built from stone, but because it was beneath the swamp, the stones were damp and extremely slippery!
The passageway of this Underground Palace was quite spacious, four to five zhang in width and height. The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard could easily traverse it. The only thing was that there were no light sources, but under his Divine Sense, whether there was light or not seemed irrelevant.
After walking merely a dozen zhang or so, they turned a corner and arrived at a hall. The hall’s ceiling had an unidentified pearl that emitted a ghastly white glow. Apart from that, there was nothing particularly special about the place.
