Supreme Sword God-Chapter 574 - 573: Three Lives Stone, Body Tempered by Yellow Springs Water
Ye Chen held the female corpse. Even though the position was ambiguous, he felt nothing but chills down his spine, with not a single inappropriate thought!
"Senior, what is it about me that you like? I’ll change it!" Ye Chen said, lacking confidence.
Suddenly.
The group of corpses that had just dispersed immediately drifted back!
Ye Chen promptly said, "I’ll change even better!"
The group of corpses continued to drift closer.
Ye Chen said, "Senior, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
He was almost driven to tears... so many ancient corpses bullying a twenty-year-old lively young man, it was too much!
Ultimately, it all boiled down to the unreliability of the Mad Old Man!
If only he had explained things in advance, Ye Chen would have avoided training and just hugged the Mad Old Man’s body, which would have been better than this!
Moreover, how long had it been already?
The Mad Old Man still hadn’t shown up!
He said it wouldn’t take long, even if things didn’t go smoothly!
At this moment.
The Mad Old Man’s Divine Soul Body was located in a dilapidated grand hall.
In front of his Divine Soul Body, there stood a man’s body in the hall, eyes open, looking into the distance.
Tall and robust, his appearance could be described as exceptionally handsome!
"Finally found it." The Mad Old Man’s Divine Soul Body muttered, "Back then, with nine avatars, I aided them against the apocalypse, but to no avail, we still failed."
While speaking, the Mad Old Man’s Divine Soul Body instantly rushed into the body in front of him.
Instantly.
The body glowed, and the man’s motionless eyes began to emit a deep radiance.
"My avatar retained young vitality."
"Hmm?"
"Who is that kid?"
"Seems like he is the heir I arranged for the Taiyan Immortal Sect in its ruins... how did he end up here?"
"The Saintess of Yellow Springs Sect... has a connection with him?"
"Oh well, the Reincarnation Technique of Yellow Springs Sect is quite mysterious, so there might still be a chance of resurrection, and since she has chosen him, I shouldn’t intervene, let them be!"
"Only one of the nine avatars has been found, I wonder if the others still exist in those places!"
With that, he punched forward.
Instantly, the Yellow Springs waters boiled, and a huge vortex appeared.
The Mad Old Man, rejuvenated by the youthful avatar, stepped into the vortex and disappeared.
"I feel like there’s something I neglected..."
"Hmm? My origin is also lost... oh!"
A long sigh echoed in the vortex passage, resonating into Ye Chen’s ear!
"Senior, you forgot to take me out, your origin is still with me..."
"Senior..."
"Please come back!"
Ye Chen shouted.
Small, pitiful, helpless!
The Mad Old Man indeed forgot him...
At this moment.
The group of corpses floated again toward Ye Chen.
Ye Chen hurriedly said, "Senior, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have shouted!"
There’s no reasoning with a Mad Old Man, and since he’s gone, there’s nowhere to reason about it anyway.
And there’s even less reasoning with a female corpse that’s who knows how many millennia old; if she gets displeased, she sends a swarm of corpses to scare him!
"Senior, if you have any unfulfilled wishes, just tell me, and I’ll do my best to fulfill them, but you also have to promise me one thing, send me out of here; I have many unfinished businesses and people outside."
The only way now is to communicate with the female corpse as much as possible.
Since the female corpse exists at the Yellow Springs Sect ruins and is a leader among the group of corpses, having her send him out shouldn’t be a problem.
This time, the group of corpses didn’t drift closer, and Ye Chen knew that the female corpse agreed!
"Senior, how can I know what your unfulfilled wish is?"
At this point, the corpses floated and arranged themselves into two rows, forming a passage.
Ye Chen, holding the female corpse, said, "Walk through it?"
No response, but it seemed likely, so Ye Chen immediately carried the female corpse through the two rows of corpses resembling guards.
When he reached the end.
A broken stone tablet appeared before him.
Vaguely, there was an incomplete character "Huang".
"Is this the Mountain Guardian Stone of the Yellow Springs Sect?"
Previously, in the Flame Desert, before inadvertently entering what could be the Taiyan Immortal Sect ruin, there was also a Mountain Guardian Stone, so Ye Chen guessed.
"What should I do next?" Ye Chen asked.
Right after he asked this, a Token flew in from a distance, landing in Ye Chen’s hand.
Ye Chen received the Token, the front engraved with the characters for Yellow Springs, and the back, engraved with a nine-story pagoda!
The Token felt similar to the previous one.
Ye Chen took out the Taiyan Immortal Sect Token for comparison.
The inscription on the Taiyan Immortal Sect Token’s front was blurred, but now knowing it was the Taiyan Immortal Sect, the blurred inscription indeed resembled the characters for Taiyan, and the pattern on the back had a part of the Flame Desert’s terrain, with the center actually forming the shape of the Nine-Turns Taiyan Fire Seal!
Since Ye Chen had obtained the complete version of the Taiyin Fire Control Technique, upon seeing it now, everything matched up.
"Senior, you don’t intend for me to become the Saint Heir of the Yellow Springs Sect too, do you?" Ye Chen’s lips twitched.
Taiyan Immortal Sect and Yellow Springs Sect once held supreme glory, but their demise appeared quite similar, indicating a significant problem.
If he was to bear these karmas... just the thought was terrifying!
However, Ye Chen quickly shifted his thoughts and became relieved.
Possibly, the force that destroyed the Taiyan Immortal Sect and the Yellow Springs Sect was the same, so he was already bound by karma, just another addition wasn’t a bother!
Moreover, becoming an honorary Saint Heir of the Taiyan Immortal Sect had already granted him the Taiyin Fire Control Technique, so he could gain some top-tier legacy on the Yellow Springs Sect side as well.
Top-tier legacies are never too much!
"Rest assured, Senior, I’m willing to become the Saint Heir of the Yellow Springs Sect!" Ye Chen said.
The two-row group of corpses floated over.
This meant the female corpse was unhappy.
Ye Chen: "..."
At this point, Ye Chen noticed that the group of corpses arranged themselves in the air to form two lines of words.
’The Yellow Springs Sect only accepts Saintesses, not Saint Heirs.’
’Seek the Three Lives Stone, and there will be a generous reward.’
Ye Chen finally understood that all this fuss was because they needed a favor from him!
If they had just used the corpses to write, there wouldn’t have been any need to scare him with the corpses, would there?
Although he knew the female corpse wanted him to do the task, Ye Chen couldn’t act arrogantly, still being in her territory and relying on leaving.
"I don’t know what the Three Lives Stone is, but I’ll investigate it. If I find it, I’ll make an effort to obtain it; I’m really in a hurry to get out right now, please let me leave first."
At this moment.
The group of corpses formed another line of words.
’Bathe in Yellow Springs water, then go.’
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered; was this a way of offering a deposit for the favor?
Though the Yellow Springs water was indeed terrifying, the people of Yellow Springs Sect undoubtedly had ways to utilize its power. If he could undergo Body Tempering with the Yellow Springs water...
Ye Chen became extremely excited, as his complete Sword Body could immediately reach Great Perfection!
