I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 830 - 798. God is half dirty
Chapter 830: 798. God is half dirty
Xia Feng only felt the world spin, and the air suddenly became thick.
It was like cotton soaked in blood blocking his nasal cavity, and his hair was floating upward in a strange arc, as if invisible cobwebs were weaving a net above his head, only to then shatter.
Xia Feng could feel himself crashing through layer upon layer of membranes, continuously falling.
What the hell is this place?
He forced his blood-soaked eyes open, and what met his gaze was nothing but a sea of blood red.
It seemed to be a very long tunnel, with spiderweb-like cracks on the sides, and dark red mist incessantly spewing from the seams.
“Gurgle gurgle—”
The sound of Star Mist water flows filled his ears, the sticky noise rushing into Xia Feng’s eardrums, as if thousands of tongues were licking at his membranes, somewhat nauseating.
“Whoosh—”
The sound of the water rushed in, and Xia Feng looked up to see the Black Dragon Woman also following in, rapidly descending from the tunnel’s sky, in an instant arriving in front of Xia Feng, and then maintaining a synchronized descent speed.
Fortunately, the tunnel was ten meters wide, enough to support the natural repulsion between the two.
Black Dragon Woman had a faint black flowing light around her, blocking the surrounding scarlet mist from invading, isolated outside, unaffected by the Star Mist.
The two of them simultaneously looked down, sensing that beneath them, layers of mist melted into blood beads floating around, and some ancient sacred harmony emanated from the ground, elusive and indistinct.
Xia Feng opened the Bronze Destructive Eye, and finally saw, below him, a crimson torrent as vast as a galaxy coursing, each blood bead encapsulating a miniature nebula.
“Is this… Divine Blood?” Xia Feng’s astonished voice was torn apart by the storm, during the rapid descent, runes emerged in his irises resonating with the torquing torrent below, faintly discernible as an ancient divine character for ‘Yang’.
“Although it’s Divine Blood, it has lost its Divinity, merely a shell of false blood.”
Huang Zhaoyue’s calm voice sounded, “Otherwise, these blood alone would obliterate both you and me.”
Xia Feng thoughtfully looked at the surrounding tunnel, nodding, “So, we are in the blood vessels of some God?”
“Buzz—buzz—”
The sacred yet ambiguous chanting grew nearer and louder.
The two looked once more to the tunnel bottom, seeing innumerable bronze sacrificial vessels or peeling inscriptions reassembling in the blood waves, gradually forming identical bewitching, bizarre female faces.
“Is this the appearance of the owner of the Divine Blood?” Xia Feng wondered.
“No, it is the memory of the owner of the Divine Blood, the visage of the person most deeply imprinted in memory.” Huang Zhaoyue contemplated, “Due to its profundity, even at death, the memory carried by the Divine Blood is exclusively her, devoid of other objects.”
“That is Heng.”
In Xia Feng’s mind, Yue Hongli’s voice sounded, “Master, this must be Gu Yi’s blood vessel.”
Goodness, it really is, Xia Feng thought in amazement, then suddenly realized something.
“Since embers and Star Mist conceal ash land, could there be an ash land here as well?”
With that thought, he immediately took out an Ember Exploration Card and crushed it, his senses instantly expanding.
Indeed, within moments, he detected the presence of a level 0 ash land.
“Your Highness the Imperial Concubine, since we’ve formed an alliance, how about we take turns using the Investigation Card and split the profits evenly?”
“Mm.”
The density of ash land in the Heavenly God’s blood vessels was evidently higher than in the Endless Desert, a real treasure trove.
In one hour, they found eight level 0 ash lands, each collecting 4 Ember Stones.
Xia Feng had a total of 4 level 0 Investigation Cards, while Huang Zhaoyue had 5 level 0 Investigations.
The two of them raced through the winding blood vessels for a full eight hours, relentlessly searching for ash lands.
They found a total of 66 level 0 ash lands and 1 level 1 ash land.
Collecting 70 Ember Stones in total, each received 35 stones.
Their luck wasn’t great, after such a long search they found only one level 1 ash land, and it didn’t even yield any item cards.
With no other choice, Xia Feng used a level 1 · Advanced Ash Inspection Card, capable of precisely sensing the presence of a level 1 ash land in the vicinity, lasting for one hour.
It must be said, the effect of an Advanced Ash Inspection Card surpasses that of a level 0 Investigation Card by multiples, and the profits are quite generous.
They found six level 1 ash lands.
Generally, a level 1 ash land guarantees at least three Ember Stones, with a small probability of containing a level 1 item card.
And the six level 1 ash lands found by the duo yielded a minimum of 4 Ember Stones, up to 8 Ember Stones, totaling 33 Ember Stones, and 2 level 1 item cards.
The harvest was indeed decent.
Since the Advanced Ash Inquiry Card was Xia Feng’s, and Huang Zhaoyue only contributed her effort, she generously asked for only 3 Ember Stones as compensation, leaving the rest to Xia Feng.
Of course, Xia Feng was not pretentious and accepted them into his pouch.
[In ten hours, you obtained a total (35+30) of 65 Ember Stones, 2 level 1 item cards]
[Currently possessing Ember Stones: (14+65) 79 stones]
It must be noted, having a plethora of Investigation Cards and a a fairly trustworthy ally made the efficiency of acquiring Ember Stones incredibly high.
The total assets had multiplied several times over.
[Level 0 item card: Active Position Exposure Card*1, Recording Card*1]
[Level 1 item card: Luck Card*1, Melting Card*2, Random Information Card*1]
All the Investigation Cards in hand were spent, leaving only auxiliary cards.
The newly obtained two level 1 cards are respectively a Melting Card and a Random Information Card, which aren’t needed for now.
“This place, aside from a slightly higher ash land density, doesn’t seem to have anything particularly special.”
Xia Feng floated in the blood flow, looking around in puzzlement. “The question now is, how do we get out?”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, ‘thud thud—’ two sounds akin to heartbeats echoed as the surrounding tunnel split open, thread-like light marks branching out, densely packed.
In a bloody howl of whirlpools, Xia Feng grimly rolled his eyes and was once again absorbed and yanked into the Scarlet Abyss.
The feeling of weightlessness replaced by thick resistance, as each drop of Divine Blood pierced through his body, as if billions of burning garnets rolled over his bones.
In a daze,
the conflicting holy chants echoed in his ears: majestic organ roars, mingled with the sticky sounds of flowing liquid.
The retinal area was also imprinted with the golden vascular network, those branch-like light marks incredibly sacrosanct.
Gently landing….
When the soles touched the elastic blood membrane, the surrounding scarlet suddenly had texture.
The two stood in the center of a blood vessel over three kilometers in diameter, the pale gold arterial valve above rhythmically thumping, with each contraction visible was the holy Star Mist within flowing.
Once the Star Mist solidified into lines, it endlessly extended outward like branches.
Huang Zhaoyue looked around, seemingly having an idea, took out the only remaining level 0 Investigation Card, and crushed it.
Sure enough, a dark point of light appeared in the holy Star Mist at the center of the dome, a marker of a special ash land, indicating the presence of special cards.
What other special cards could this place have?
Clearly, it could only be,
Black King’s Investigation….
Huang Zhaoyue’s beautiful eyes glimmered with depth, stealthily casting a side glance at Xia Feng.
