Chapter 1599: Chapter 659: Victory! Qualification Achieved

In this world, is there a mutant fire that can change color?

Unheard of, unseen before.

Everyone looked bewildered, yet within the drawing array, Ye Lingyue had reached the crucial point of refining the Red Scorpion Fire.

The Fire Flame Scorpion within the Red Scorpion Fire lowered its scorpion tail as if sensing something, while the color of the Red Scorpion Fire gradually changed, until finally, it completely fused with the Gray Fire.

Once the Red Scorpion Fire fully merged with the Gray Fire, the Fire Flame Scorpion within it also underwent changes.

The originally dark and shiny scorpion shell, which resembled armor, turned as transparent as jade, glowing with an emerald-like sheen, and three Demon Marks appeared on the scorpion’s back.

Evidently, after fusing with several kinds of mutant fires, the Fire Flame Scorpion underwent a mutation. Ye Lingyue was about to examine it closely, but at that moment, the air behind her was suddenly ripped apart as she swiftly moved forward.

With a "hiss," a Senluo Vine as thick as an arm brushed past her side like an arrow, sending shivers down her spine.

The vine seemed incredibly flexible and free-flowing, yet when Ye Lingyue dodged and it pierced the ground, it stabbed several inches deep like the sharpest spear.

Compared to before, the speed of the Senluo Mother Vine increased and its strength became even more astounding.

Evidently, Nian Xiaoxie’s soul had taken effect.

Ye Lingyue looked up at the Senluo Ghost Fruit King.

Her eyes turned cold as she let out a soft whistle. The Female Sword Nine Dragon Chant shot out, and Ye Lingyue landed on it with a light step, deftly evading the vines’ attack.

As the Nine Dragon Chant carried Ye Lingyue away, she flicked her sleeve, sending dozens of sword shadows flying out from beneath her garment.

Dozens of Heavenly Sword Hemp, controlled by spiritual power, swam like fish towards the Senluo Ghost Fruit King.

The Senluo Ghost Vine swung like a massive tentacle beast, the vines weaving like they had eyes, filling the air with metallic clangs as the Heavenly Sword Hemp clashed against them, sparks flying.

Equivalent to a Heavenly-grade Spiritual Artifact, the Heavenly Sword Hemp couldn’t harm the Senluo Mother Vine at all, making this ghostly entity incredibly resilient.

Head-on confrontation won’t work; it seems only intellect will prevail.

Spurred by the Nine Dragon Chant, Ye Lingyue flew like a meteor, with countless Senluo Ghost Vines in relentless pursuit.

Outside the Luoshu Mountain and River Painting, everyone was dazzled.

The earlier scene of Ye Lingyue fusing the Red Scorpion Fire had already appeared quite bizarre to them.

The captain of this Huangquan Team acts completely unpredictably.

One quarter-hour passed, then another.

Ye Lingyue continued dodging and weaving on the Nine Dragon Chant, watching until everyone’s eyes turned sore.

"This freak can’t just keep dodging; this way leads only to death."

Third Young Master Jin muttered, earning a sharp glare from Bo Qing and Tang Tiansong.

Bo Qing’s charming lips curled with a hint of disdain.

"Wrong, she’s not merely dodging."

Xi Jiuye said coolly.

"How is this not dodging?" Third Young Master Jin and Hong Mingyue exchanged perplexed looks.

His dark gray eyes were fixed on Ye Lingyue’s every slight move.

She seemed to dodge, but each time, her ten fingers moved slightly.

Her spiritual power fused with an indistinguishable martial art, forming countless invisible threads like spider silk.

For a whole two quarters of an hour, a large number of peculiar threads had been laid near the Senluo Ghost Vine.

"It’s about time to close the net."

In the image, Ye Lingyue’s evasive movement finally stopped.

Her eyes flashed, ten fingers tugging as if pulling the strings of a puppet.

Divine Power Skill, Heaven and Earth Net!

In an instant, the power of Ghost Needle mixed with spiritual power, like an unbreakable fishing net.

When the Senluo Mother Vine realized something was wrong, it was already tightly ensnared, angrily flailing its vines, but the more it struggled, the tighter the net drew.

Ye Lingyue held a sword in her right hand, a slight smile on her lips, her combat energy rising around her.

In a flash, the immense Power of Heaven and Earth surged into the Nine Dragon Chant, Sword Qi coursing across the blade, dragon scales protruding, and a brilliant rainbow light streaking forth.

With a "schwing," one vine of the tightly bound Senluo Ghost Vine was sliced off.

Seeing the Senluo Mother Vine restrained, the Wanxiang City Lord quickly activated his Divine Sense.

"Captain Ye, come out quickly."

With a swift movement, Ye Lingyue shot out from the Luoshu Mountain and River Painting like a cannonball.

She landed gracefully, holding a grotesque tentacle.

Ye Lingyue’s mouth twitched slightly, then she spoke crisply.

"City Lord, does this mean I passed the assessment?"

The Wanxiang City Lord nodded approvingly.

Everyone else finally awoke from their stupor, looking again at the restrained Senluo Mother Vine inside the Luoshu Mountain and River Painting, everyone fell silent.

A farce concluded just like that.

Nian Xiaoxie’s companions, seeing his tragic end, were enraged but did not dare act out in front of the Wanxiang City Lord, and so, taking Nian Xiaoxie’s relics, they left Wanxiang City in disgrace.

After assigning the escort task, the Wanxiang City Lord informed everyone that their departure would be in three days.

As everyone left, the Tang Family’s representative team deliberately trailed behind the Huangquan Team.

"Young Master Tiansong, please wait a moment."

At the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion, the Tang Family Guest Elder, who was protecting Tang Tianqi, hurriedly caught up.

Tang Tiansong paused, looking at Ye Lingyue.

"I’ll give you a quarter-hour."

Ye Lingyue nodded and walked out of the City Lord’s Mansion with Bo Qing.

Tang Tianqi pouted and walked off, leaving Tang Tiansong and that Lord Song.

"Young Master Tiansong, congratulations on reaching the Peak of the Small Divine Power Realm. With your current strength, you’d be highly regarded even in the Tang Family. Do you plan to return to join the Tang Family’s Representative Team as a vice-captain to assist Miss Tianqi in this Jiu Provinces Hunting?"

Lord Song was trying to persuade Tang Tiansong to leave the Huangquan Team.

"Lord Song, do you mean the Tang Family is inviting me back? Is this Tang Tianqi’s intention or your own presumption?"

Tang Tiansong did not immediately express his stance, instead questioning.

Lord Song chuckled dryly twice.

He was merely the Tang Family’s Guest Elder, naturally not daring to make decisions about recalling someone considered a discard back to the Tang Family.

"It’s the Tang Family Patriarch who personally sent me to invite you back. Although there were past grievances with the Tang Family, you ultimately bear the Tang Family’s blood. How can you side with others and support other teams? Moreover, you’ve seen how the Huangquan Team offended the Jin Family and caused Nian Xiaoxie’s death, so even if they reach the Jiu Provinces Base Camp smoothly, they will certainly face exclusion. Following such a team, your talents would only be buried."

Lord Song wore an earnest expression, appearing sincere in his concern for Tang Tiansong.
