Chapter 4251: Reunion (Third Update)

Chapter 4251: Chapter 4251: Reunion (Third Update)

Ye Chen was solely concerned for Ye Luo, wanting only to help her restore her memory.

"You wish to see the Holy Daughter, unless you pass my trial."

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture said slowly.

"What trial? If you want to test my level of cultivation, I fear I’m no match for you."

Ye Chen shook his head, this Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture was far more formidable than the Black Phoenix.

The Black Phoenix had been suppressed for many years, its blood essence and energy greatly diminished.

While this Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture showed no signs of being subdued, its aura at peak-level, mixed with dragon race bloodline, its power extremely strong.

A direct confrontation would surely end in defeat for Ye Chen.

"It’s not a battle. This is the consciousness world of the Holy Daughter, fighting here may harm her divine soul. You and I will race, if you can catch up to me, I’ll tell you the whereabouts of the Holy Daughter."

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture spoke and, without waiting for Ye Chen’s agreement, suddenly spread its wings and soared into the sky like an arrow departing the bowstring, swiftly flying away.

Ye Chen’s expression changed drastically, the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture was originally the guardian beast of the Storm Source Talisman, mastering the nomological power of Wind Element Techniques, its flight as fast as a meteor chasing the moon, Ye Chen hoping to catch up seemed nearly impossible.

This trial was even more challenging than a battle.

Ye Chen had no chance of victory.

In terms of speed, how could he match a Storm Source Beast?

"Senior, you’re deliberately making things difficult for me!"

Ye Chen hurriedly flew into the sky, chasing after the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture.

"Heh, I’m only using half my speed, if you still can’t catch up, don’t blame me."

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture chuckled coldly, wings flapping, riding the wind, speeding along like a lightning storm, utterly unreachable.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, exerted all his strength, frantically pursuing.

But the distance between him and the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture only widened, seeing no hope of catching up.

"Give up."

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture, seeing Ye Chen continually failing to catch up, advised him to abandon his efforts.

This was Ye Luo’s consciousness world, outsiders could not linger for long, or it would cause indelible harm to Ye Luo’s divine soul.

"No!"

Ye Chen’s eyes showed determination, with no thoughts of giving up.

His gaze flickered, contemplating a way to succeed.

Relying solely on brute force to pursue was certainly impossible to catch the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture, another way must be found!

"Dark Stele, appear!"

In a flash, a plan emerged in Ye Chen’s mind, suddenly summoning the Dark Stele.

Whoosh!

With the Dark Stele’s emergence, a vast dark aura rolled out.

"Eternal Night Demon Heaven, descend!"

At the next moment, Ye Chen shouted, leveraging the energy of the Dark Stele, directly deploying Eternal Night Demon Heaven.

In an instant, the surrounding heaven and earth fell into absolute darkness.

The Eternal Night Demon Heaven fashioned by the Dark Stele was true eternal dark night, enveloping all around, covering every light.

"What!"

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture, seeing the surroundings plunge into darkness, was shocked.

In the absolute dark, its mind trembled, momentarily halting its flight.

"Not good!"

As flight ceased, the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture sensed danger, its heart sank, wings flapping urgently to escape.

"Extreme Martial: Divine Flash!"

But at this moment, Ye Chen let out an upright shout, his figure suddenly vanished from where he stood.

In the next moment, Ye Chen’s form seemed to teleport, appearing on the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture’s back.

"Senior, I’ve caught up with you."

Ye Chen’s eyes gleamed brightly, immediately dispelling the darkness barrier of Eternal Night Demon Heaven, retracting the Dark Stele.

He had bet correctly!

When the world plunged into darkness, the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture indeed showed brief panic.

Ye Chen seized the opportunity, an Extreme Martial God Flash finally allowing him to catch up.

"You cheated! We agreed to race, yet you used trickery!"

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture’s eyes were cold, its gaze uneasy.

"Senior, I only created a Dark World, there was no trickery, it was your will that was not firm, so you can’t blame me."

Ye Chen shrugged.

"Sharp-tongued boy!"

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture was greatly annoyed but upon consideration, Ye Chen was not wrong, if its mind had been steadfast, how could it have been frightened by a mere Eternal Night Demon Heaven?

"Enough, you’ve won, I’ll take you to see the Holy Daughter."

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture sighed, having promised and thus unable to easily break it, lest it suffer the wrath of the Heavenly Dao.

Then the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture carried Ye Chen, flying deeper into the world.

"Thank you, Senior!"

Ye Chen rejoiced, standing upon the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture’s back.

Soon, Ye Chen saw on the distant horizon a massive iron cage, within which was a delicate, radiant girl imprisoned.

It was Ye Luo!

"Luo!"

Ye Chen’s heart thumped upon seeing Ye Luo’s figure.

"We’ve arrived."

The Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture’s eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Ye Luo in the cage ahead, saying: "This is the truest self of the Holy Daughter deep within her heart, but she is thoroughly imprisoned, if you have the ability, unlock the cage yourself, and release her to restore her memory."

"However, you only have the time of two incense sticks, if after that time you haven’t unlocked the cage, then it proves you have no right to remain here!"

With this, the Wind Spirit Dragon Vulture set Ye Chen down.

Ye Chen looked at the cage with dreamlike wonder, stepping closer with his heart pounding even harder.

Inside the cage, Ye Luo’s gaze was clear and gentle, the truest her, with no trace of vicious energy, only pure lively aura.

"Brother Ye!"

Ye Luo inside the cage, seeing Ye Chen’s figure, believed herself dreaming, calling out with joy.

"Luo!"

Ye Chen shouted, rushing to the cage.

This cage was completely made of iron, each iron bar exceedingly cold, exceedingly hard.

"I’ll save you!"

Ye Chen drew his sword, slashing fiercely at the iron, sparks flew, a huge rebound came, but the cage remained unbroken.

"Brother Ye."

Tears welled in Ye Luo’s eyes, with Ye Chen before her, yet unable to escape.

"It’s alright, wait for me! I will definitely save you!"

Ye Chen’s gaze was firm, Divine Fire exploding on the Slaughter Sword, sword qi fierce, striking the iron cage again.

Clang!

A deep cut appeared on the iron bars of the cage.

This iron cage, although incredibly sturdy, Ye Chen’s strength was enough to break it.

Although, it required time!

The time of two incense sticks should be enough!

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, swinging his sword repeatedly, the sword edge clashing with iron, producing constant ringing sounds.

"Brother Ye..."

Ye Luo watched Ye Chen, sweat pouring down, feeling sorry in her heart.

"It’s alright, just wait a little longer!"

Ye Chen’s will was unwavering, his sword swinging with increasing strength, the iron cage constantly vibrating, destined to be broken within the time of two incense sticks.

Ye Chen was most worried about anything unexpected happening outside!

If anyone disturbed, that would be trouble.
