Chapter 617: Living Things in Space

Since Lonemoon said what he did, everybody had gone crazy. Suddenly, everyone had the biggest show of the century playing in their heads.

All the gazes that had been fixed upon him the entire time suddenly turned to Shen Ying. They no longer had admiration and tenderness in their eyes. Instead, they seemed to be angry at her, blaming her, and jealous of her. There were also others who were angry at a certain someone’s tendency to play with others’ hearts.

If not for the fact that they were still in the Corroding Vacant Valley, Lonemoon had reason to suspect that they would have taken action against Shen Ying already.

The one with the biggest reaction was Lu Lin, who was beside Lonemoon at the time. Her face drained of all color and she looked both hurt and disappointed. Even her flying sword looked unstable all of a sudden. She looked at Lonemoon and Shen Ying in turn, then mumbled to herself, “I knew that the both of you aren’t father and daughter. So... So... You are...”

Again, everyone immediately turned to Shen Ying with murderous intent burning in their eyes. Everyone’s faces seemed to read: Beast!

You already have one, and you’re still not satisfied. You still want to seduce the other one!

Shen Ying, who had been played for once: “...” Motherf*cker!

Suddenly, she lost all mood to even continue eating her fruits. She turned around and looked at Father Niu furiously.

Shen Ying: Why are you doing this? We were born from the same roots, and we’ve gone through so much together!

Lonemoon: It’s better that we die together than I dying alone. You should have thought twice before you played your own father!

Yi Qing: Indeed, everyone is trying to steal my master! Fight me, you little bastard!

“We’re here!” The Nascent Soul cultivator who had been leading the way the entire time stopped and looked around at the pitch-black world. He looked suspicious as he said, “This is strange. This place is supposed to be where the Sacred Medicine Sect once stood. Why is there nothing left? It looks absolutely deserted.”

He pulled out a map that resembled a jade slip and looked closely at it. He looked like he had confirmed something. Turning around to the disciples, he said in a low voice, “We’re already here. Go around and search. Take care of yourselves and don’t wander too far. This place might be the origin of the thing that caused the “Dark Night”. Be extremely careful.”

“Yes, Uncle Master,” they responded in unison.

Lonemoon and his two companions immediately flew downward. After hesitating for a moment, Lu Lin followed them despite her broken heart.

From the pieces of information Lu Lin had offered them along the way, they understood that this patch of darkness was likely caused by the explosion of all the sects in the area that had fallen. This place was obviously one of those sects.

The moment they landed, Lonemoon and Yi Qing activated their divine perceptions to search everything within a hundred-mile radius. Still, they could not find anything. Everywhere seemed empty. The only thing that was different was the darkness, which seemed deeper here than it did at the entrance.

Since their divine perceptions weren’t working, they had no choice but to follow the other disciples to look around.

“Lone... Fellow Daoists,” Lu Lin said through gritted teeth. She walked quickly toward them and said, “Please don’t wander too far. It is easy to get lost in here.”

The three of them nodded, then headed in another direction to continue their search. After half a day, however, they still haven’t found anything.

“Shen Ying, do you see anything?” Lonemoon had no choice but to ask the cheat.

“Mm...” Shen Ying took a bite out of her fruit, swallowed it and said, “I think... there’ll be something soon.”

“Huh?” What does that mean?

“Uncle-Master! I’ve found it! Before Lonemoon could react, a cultivator suddenly shouted from behind him.

Lonemoon and Yi Qing exchanged a glance and picked Shen Ying up before heading in the direction of the commotion.

A female cultivator from the Dawning Pill Sect stood not far away from them, looking shocked. “I’ve found it! I found the location of the Sacred Medicine Sect!”

A moment later, the leader, the Nascent Soul cultivator, came over. “Where?”

“Here! Here!” The other cultivator turned and pointed in front of her.

Lonemoon instinctively looked over. He had not noticed it before, but now that the female cultivator had pointed it out, there was a wall built a few metres to her right. The wall was a bit distorted and black, as if half of it had already collapsed. From the looks of it, it was an old mountain gate.

“The Sacred Medicine Sect is here indeed!” The Nascent Soul cultivator explained. She turned to the others and shouted, “Everyone, go in!”

The other cultivators caught up with them at last. After all, this used to be a huge sect. For all they knew, there could be something good hidden inside.

Lonemoon also activated his divine perception to sweep over the remains of the wall. Faintly, he could tell that there were talisman words written atop the wall. It looked ancient and strange and even had a sort of special lively aura about it. It was almost like it was alive...

“Wait! This is not a wall!”

His heart jumped and he reacted immediately. He conjured a wind seal and shot it toward everyone else. The crowd that had been heading toward the black wall suddenly got swept back to where they started.

They had not been ready for that. Before they knew what was happening, they were thrown to the ground – all including the Nascent Soul cultivator.

“Fellow Daoist Lonemoon, what are you-” All of them looked confused. They just started to question him when they were interrupted by a loud roar.

Roar~

The roar was so loud that their eardrums threatened to burst. The entire crowd felt a gust of strong wind blow past them. It brought with it a formidable suppressive force. A few of the Golden Core cultivators were carried off the ground and thrown several metres further behind.

The black wall that had not been moving before suddenly began to shake. The ground vibrated and cracked open, as if something was breaking out of it.

“Mount your swords – get out of here!” The Nascent Soul cultivator shouted. “It’s coming out!”

It was then that all of them snapped back to reality. One by one, they mounted their swords. Even Shen Ying and her two companions followed suit.

Loud crashes were heard, one after another. The group finally saw something black and tall, which resembled a tower, coming out of the ground. The thing did not seem to have a fixed form. However, its entire body was black and talisman words were shining on its body. On top of its head, it had a horn that resembled a sharp tooth. That was what they had mistaken as to be the black wall earlier.

“What... What is that?” One of the cultivators exclaimed.

The next thing they knew, the black thing swayed. In just a blink of an eye, it turned into a black beast with four legs and six wings. The beast was lit up in purple flames.

Lonemoon immediately recognized this eleventh-grade beast. He shouted, “Isn’t this the Purple Flame Beast?” He didn’t know this beast could take on another form at night.

“No!” Shen Ying’s eyes narrowed. She suddenly spoke, “It’s a Spatial Li.”

What?

Lonemoon paused. After awhile, he asked, “What Li? How come I’ve never heard of such a beast!”

“It’s not a beast.”

“It’s so huge. What could it be if it isn’t a-” He suddenly stopped mid-sentence, as if realizing something.

Wait a moment!

Spatial Li? Why did this term sound so familiar? He felt like he had seen it somewhere before...

Spatial Li... Spatial... Spatial...

“Spatial Li!” Lonemoon shouted all a sudden. “A living thing that exists in empty space – the Spatial Li!”

“Mm.” Shen Ying nodded.

Holy shit shit shit shit shit1!

That was why he found it familiar. While he was downloading all the information related to being an assistant in those three months, he had come across a chapter that focused on such a living creature. It was a kind of a formless creature that lived in the space between planes...

Suddenly, he felt like the cultivators who had come in with them but suddenly disappeared now were... abandoning them!
