“How are you feeling?”
Evan Chen looked at Li Huaizhen.
Li Huaizhen remained calm and replied, “Young Master, although this toxic miasma has corroded the flesh of my hand, it hasn’t forcibly invaded my body.”
Evan felt the pain just by looking at it, so he took out a subpar healing elixir. “Try taking this elixir.”
This elixir was worth twenty-five Immortal Crystals.
However, Evan didn’t feel distressed about it. After all, Li Huaizhen was his loyal servant, and he would rely on him as a fighter in the future. If he were to be crippled, that would be truly distressing.
Li Huaizhen sensed the elixir exuding immortal aura and knew it was valuable. He said in a panic, “Young Master, you’ve already bestowed upon me an Immortal Artifact and Immortal Medicine. How dare I take your Immortal Core?”
Evan replied, “Stop talking nonsense. Are you going to listen to me or not?”
Li Huaizhen became even more fearful and quickly said, “Of course, I will obey your orders, Young Master!”
“That’s more like it.”
Evan flicked the elixir over, and Li Huaizhen had no choice but to catch it. At this moment, Li Huaizhen felt both moved and like a useless person, wasting so many good things from his master.
The Immortal Core melted as soon as it entered his mouth.
The medicinal power took effect, and Li Huaizhen’s hand began to regenerate flesh at a visible speed.
After all, Li Huaizhen was still a mortal body, and Evan’s Immortal Core could even heal the injuries of immortals. It was not surprising that it had the effect of reviving the dead and regenerating bones in the Lower Realm.
“Thank you for your grace, Young Master!”
Li Huaizhen quickly bowed.
Evan nodded indifferently and then said, “I’ll use a defensive Immortal Artifact to protect you. Try again.”
With a thought, Evan activated the dark green ring, which began to absorb Immortal Power. A red barrier formed, protecting both him and Li Huaizhen.
Without any hesitation, Li Huaizhen reached out to touch the black mist again.
Sizzle…
The black mist and the red barrier made a sound like a hot iron rod being plunged into ice water.
After waiting for a dozen breaths, the black mist ultimately couldn’t break through the barrier.
“Very good. As expected of a defensive Immortal Artifact. When powered by my Immortal Power, its effect is excellent.”
Evan was satisfied with this.
Earlier, Su Tianqi was only a peak-stage cultivator. Using this Immortal Artifact, he could easily defend against a Land Immortal’s attack, and it might even withstand an attack from the First Immortal Realm.
Now, with Evan using Immortal Power, its defensive capability naturally soared.
“Let’s go in.”
Since there was no longer any danger, Evan stepped forward, with Li Huaizhen following closely behind.
“This place has changed too. It has become a self-contained space.”
After passing through the black mist, what lay before Evan was a vast black land.
Li Huaizhen was extremely amazed. It was just a cave before; how could it become a vast land?
“Young Master, look, there are so many giant birds in the sky!”
In his amazement, Li Huaizhen used his spiritual sense to visualize and saw the huge black flying objects in the sky, shouting in fear.
Evan also noticed this.
“No blood aura, it should just be an illusion.”
Evan’s Immortal Sense could extend here, and he didn’t sense any life or blood aura from those black objects.
Continuing to extend his Immortal Sense, Evan quickly found something unusual.
He soared into the sky, flying towards the central area of this land, and Li Huaizhen hurriedly followed.
In the center of the land, a blood pool bubbled.
A massive black figure emerged from the blood pool, but only half of its body was visible.
It was entirely pitch black, with a pair of huge wings on its back. Its body resembled a human, but it had horns on its head and a face somewhat similar to a cow.
“So big…”
Li Huaizhen’s spiritual sense explored the hundred-zhang-tall half-body and couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Young Master, what is this thing? A demon?”
“Probably a demon.”
Evan looked at it for a while, not knowing what it was, but it looked impressive and domineering.
“It looks formidable. I wonder where it came from!” Li Huaizhen exclaimed.
“This thing probably broke through the spatial barrier and came from the spatial turbulence.”
Evan had heard from James Li that countless battles had occurred in the Immortal World since ancient times. Many beings and artifacts had fallen into the spatial rifts created by these battles, drifting in the spatial turbulence forever.
Some of them would break through lower-level spatial barriers and end up in the Cultivation World.
“Uh…”
Li Huaizhen didn’t quite understand and didn’t dare to ask further.
“What are you standing there for? Hurry up and see if there are any treasures!”
“Yes, Young Master.”
The two began to search around the blood pool, carefully examining every inch of land.
After a round, they didn’t find anything special.
“Young Master, look, its right hand is curled up, as if holding something.”
“Yes! It’s definitely holding something, probably a weapon.”
The giant black monster’s arm was submerged in the blood pool, and without going down to explore, it was impossible to see what it was holding.
But how could Evan dare to go down?
One must know that anything that could withstand the sweep of spatial turbulence was no ordinary item.
Just like Evan’s cheap master, Mason Zhu, who was an Immortal Sovereign. Even his body was wrecked by the spatial turbulence, showing how terrifying it was.
And this giant black monster not only withstood the spatial turbulence but also showed signs of regeneration. It was probably no less powerful than an Immortal Sovereign when alive.
Not daring to go down, Evan decided to drain the red liquid from the blood pool!
Evan prepared to attack the blood pool, letting the liquid inside flow out.
After all, even if this space was self-contained, the main space was still the Cloud Dragon Realm. With Evan’s Fourth Immortal Realm power, he could likely create a crack in the space.
“Step back, I’m going to make a move.”
No sooner said than done!
Evan took out a hoe from his Storage Bag. Despite its rustic appearance, it was an Immortal Artifact.
Evan channeled his Immortal Power and swung the hoe down hard.
Boom!
The space trembled, and the edge of the blood pool was chipped by Evan.
“Easy, just like mining.”
Evan smacked his lips. He had worked as a miner for over ten years and was adept at using a hoe.
Dig, keep digging, dig hard…
After hundreds of swings, Evan dug a gap in the blood pool, and the red liquid began to flow out.
The liquid level gradually dropped.
“It really is a weapon.”
Evan saw clearly that the black monster was holding a broken halberd.
Upon closer inspection, the broken halberd was engraved with many strange patterns, resembling some kind of script.
“Don’t know what race it is, but it should have fallen into a spatial rift in ancient times!”
As the liquid in the blood pool gradually drained, the lower half of the black monster’s body was revealed.
It had a large, thick tail, but its legs and tail were still bones, without flesh.
“Crack, crack…”
Suddenly, a faint sound like glass shattering reached Evan’s ears.
Evan immediately became alert, secretly preparing his escape and attack Immortal Talismans.
Then, Evan saw tiny cracks appear on the giant body, gradually spreading. Within a few breaths, black fragments began to fall.
Boom…
The next moment!
The giant body shattered and collapsed.
A terrifying shockwave spread out from the blood pool’s center.
