I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 794 - 538 Terrifying Spiritual Artifact and the Little Monk
Haixi Province is located in the southeast of Great Xia, and it's a major coastal economic province.
Du Yu's destination this time is even the provincial capital of Haixi—Rong City; no doubt, it's a bustling metropolis.
But when it came to experiencing or sightseeing a city like this, Du Yu didn't hold out much hope.
The last time he went to Nanyue Province·Jihua Village, it was also a swift operation; as soon as the mission was done, he rushed back to the Great Xia Capital City to report.
You still want to soak up some local culture?
Heh.
At 2 a.m., just as Du Yu was getting a little sleepy, he suddenly felt a wave of weightlessness.
"Hm?" Du Yu immediately snapped awake, looking out the airplane window.
Under the night, Rong City was ablaze with lights, looking very much like a city that never sleeps.
"Boss, plans have changed!" A middle-aged male soldier came up from the front of the cabin. "The Spiritual Artifact isn't listening to us—it went into the Ancient Banyan Tree Demon Spirit Realm.
If we land at Changle Airport, we'll be too far from that Realm; it'll waste too much time."
Du Yu looked at the soldier, his expression odd: "So, when we fly over the Demon Spirit Realm, I just jump out?"
The soldier nodded. "That's what the ground team requested."
Du Yu immediately replied, "Alright, no problem."
Jumping, eh~
It's not like I haven't jumped before.
The last time I carried out a mission in a southern metropolis, I jumped out of the plane, too.
Guess I'll just call it maintaining a fine tradition...
"Please come with me," the soldier said, leading Du Yu to the rear cabin door.
"Ss!" With the rear door dropping open, a rush of wild wind swept through.
As the military plane skimmed over the brightly lit city, the two men finally reached a special zone.
The Ancient Banyan Tree Demon Spirit Realm took up a massive area—it was a mountain forest, and of course it was pitch black inside.
"Keep communications open; the ground team will contact you," the soldier shouted.
Du Yu nodded slightly, his short, messy black hair whipping crazily in the wind.
And his next move was downright stylish.
Du Yu tilted his body, strode two steps, and then dove headfirst out.
"Yo-ho~" Du Yu called softly, straightening his body like a sharp sword, stabbing diagonally downward.
At some point, flying had become pretty much routine.
Du Yu vaguely recalled that the last time he jumped, he was like a busted-up Iron Man.
His body twisted and wobbled in the air; just standing straight was tough.
As he came within a few hundred meters of the ground, Du Yu suddenly spread his limbs, slowing his descent just a bit.
"Hoo~" In that instant, wind and fire swirled around Du Yu's feet.
"Whoa, whoa." He called quietly, flipping several times in the air.
"Sss!" Suddenly, two jets of mist shot from Du Yu's hands.
Almost like jet packs?
Human-Pet Joint Skill·Dust Mist Flash!
This Demon Skill, usually used to accelerate the Dust Spirit Deer's four hooves, was wielded by Du Yu, arms and legs all working together.
Several bursts of jets cut away the inertia from Du Yu's body.
He finally steadied himself, hovering in mid-air.
Du Yu closed his eyes. One second later, he opened them again.
A faint red veil covered his sight; he glanced down toward the earth below.
The grand Ancient Banyan Tree Realm was packed with trees, branches and leaves thick, making Du Yu's view highly limited.
"Bzzz~buzz~" The vibration in his trouser pocket interrupted Du Yu's observations.
He took out his phone, looking at the unfamiliar number, then quickly swiped his hand under his stomach, sending it forward.
Dense Demon Breath roiled, and the Dust Spirit Immortal Deer suddenly materialized.
"Nai... nai?" Bai Yujing couldn't finish "nai" before making a curious sound.
Who's touching my feet?
Just wait till I—oh, it's Du Yu.
Well, okay then~
Bai Yujing tilted her snowy white deer head, peering down curiously at her master.
Du Yu grabbed a snow-white hoof with one hand, dangling in the air, and answered with his other hand on the phone: "South side of the Ancient Banyan Tree?
Alright, I'll be there in a moment."
Du Yu hung up, gave a strong push, and shot upward.
Bai Yujing adjusted her form accordingly, catching her master firmly.
"Let's go, Xiaobai." Du Yu patted the snow-white deer's back. "We're heading to the center of the forest below."
"Nai~" Bai Yujing finally managed to call out, gliding smoothly down toward the earth.
Du Yu kept the Eye of Burning Sun open, granting Bai Yujing an even clearer view through the Demon Pet Contract.
And that enormous Ancient Banyan Tree left Du Yu full of amazement.
As expected of "Rong City"—this banyan tree is just incredible!
Most trees have trunks that grow straight upward.
But this "Ancient Banyan Tree" not only has an upward-reaching trunk, it also sends out huge trunks in all directions.
It's clearly just one tree, but it's created a whole forest's effect.
The area it covers is so vast that thousands could sit in its shade at once.
Through the Contract, Du Yu communicated: "Let the Ancient Banyan know we've got no ill intent, just passing through for a look."
Bai Yujing landed lightly, letting out a long and lovely deer call: "Nai~~~"
"Huh?" As Bai Yujing landed solidly on the south side of the Ancient Banyan Tree, Du Yu glanced south and spotted an unusual figure.
Was this... a monk?
The woman had a petite build, early twenties at most.
She looked so young, but carried an air of kindness and wisdom. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
She wore a gray robe, cloth shoes, with a gray monk's hat atop her head.
But Du Yu could spot it—those clothes were all conjured by the Artifact Spirit, part of the Artifact Spirit's appearance.
Only one object truly existed,
