Chapter 3708: Misfortune Curse

Ye Liuyun also grew curious about this black cat. He used his Golden Pupil to examine it repeatedly, only then confirming that it had no treasure capable of blocking its Soul.

While Ye Liuyun was examining the black cat, it opened its eyes again and bared its teeth at him, clearly displeased by his disturbance. This time, however, it gave him face and did not attack him again.

After the black cat threatened twice, it suddenly sensed the atmosphere was off. Ye Liuyun not only ignored its threat but also released killing intent, slowly walking toward it..

Seeing its threat useless, the black cat directly flashed a gray-blue light from its eyes, enveloping Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun merely felt something inside his body rapidly disappearing.

But just as Ye Liuyun grew somewhat panicked, his status as master of the Secret Realm took effect again, actually blocking the black cat's attack.

Seeing that, the black cat immediately stopped its attack, turned its eyes in a human-like way, turned its head and left, apparently not wanting to fall out with Ye Liuyun for now. Yet it left with great composure, completely acting as if it didn't take Ye Liuyun seriously.

Ye Liuyun's nose almost got twisted by this arrogant cat's anger; instantly his Golden Pupil flashed, and a thunder source sliced toward the black cat. Unexpectedly, it didn't even look back, leapt aside with ease, then accelerated, its figure rushing into a patch of Mi Lin.

"This little guy is not simple after all!"

Ye Liuyun stared at the fleeing black cat, dazed for a moment, feeling its strength was indeed considerable, so he ultimately did not use the power of the Cave Heaven World to kill it, letting it go temporarily—perhaps it could still be useful later.

But when he carefully examined the stone tablet with his Golden Pupil, he discovered a special Crystal Stone inside it, containing a special energy fluctuation.

Ye Liuyun also specially summoned Long Nv to have her investigate the attribute of that energy.

"What exactly is this energy? I've never seen it before, but it feels similar to dragon energy, and its energy concentration is also very high."

After Long Nv examined it, she actually couldn't determine the energy's type either, only able to confirm that it should be harmless to the body.

"Then let's extract it and try absorbing it!"

Ye Liuyun said, and was about to use the Demon Slaying Sword to split the stone tablet.

However, the black cat had somehow returned and launched another Spiritual Soul Attack at Ye Liuyun. But because the attack was weakened by the Secret Realm, it wouldn't hurt him, only dazing him a bit.

"You're not done yet, huh? Really giving you face!"

Ye Liuyun, also angered, immediately employed the full power of the Cave Heaven World to attack the black cat, first using Spatial Power to imprison it, then confining its Divine Soul Power within its Sea of Consciousness.

"Ah—!"

The black cat let out a miserable cry, blood actually trickling from the corner of its mouth.

Yet it still activated its gray-blue eyes, shooting them at Ye Liuyun; the sensation of something being sucked out returned.

Ye Liuyun also flashed his Golden Pupil, white light condensing in his eyes, evidently preparing to use the Technique to quickly finish off the black cat. Although he didn't know what the black cat was drawing from his body, it was surely nothing good, so he needed to finish it off quickly.

Just then, a stream of energy began to seep from the stone tablet, rushing toward Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun's white light stalled, preparing to shift and shoot toward the stone tablet.

His first reaction was that he had been schemed against by the God King, that the Cave Heaven World the God King gave him was flawed and meant to attack him.

But the next moment, he felt that the energy the stone tablet was releasing toward him was exactly what the black cat had been sucking out.

"What's going on?"

Ye Liuyun's heart jolted, he turned his gaze, deflecting the just-emitted white light to strike the side of the stone tablet's Mi Lin.

"Phew! Good thing I reacted fast, otherwise I would have destroyed this in an instant!" He also felt relieved in his heart.

At that moment, the black cat also stopped its attack, staring blankly at him.

Ye Liuyun also noticed the black cat had ceased its attack, so he didn't rush to kill it, hoping to obtain some useful information from it.

After the stone tablet had supplemented him with some energy and sensed no danger, it ceased transmission.

"What kind of energy is this? I don't feel any change in my body," Ye Liuyun also wondered, quite curious.

As for the function of this stone tablet, even after he had refined the Cave Heaven World, he had received no information about it.

He looked at the black cat; it seemed he would need to get information from it.

He directly used Divine Sense Transmission Voice to inquire of it. But the black cat merely turned its head in a human-like way, as if unwilling to respond.

"Not speaking? Then what do I need your soul‑sucking thing for? Go die!"

Ye Liuyun said, and the white light in his Golden Pupil began to spin again. This time he merely wanted to intimidate the black cat, not truly kill it.

But the black cat's pupils contracted, clearly frightened. It had witnessed the power of Ye Liuyun's white light just now and knew it couldn't withstand that blow.

"You're not my master, so how can you call me a soul‑sucker? My master is the owner of this stone tablet!"

At this moment, the black cat suddenly spoke human words, arguing with Ye Liuyun. Although its voice still trembled, showing it was still fearful, it still refused to bear the blame of being a soul‑sucker.

"But I am now the master of this Cave Heaven World; everything here belongs to me, so your attack on me is soul‑sucking." Ye Liuyun deliberately provoked it to speak.

"I have never acknowledged you as my master, nor formed a bond." Seeing Ye Liuyun's white light dim in his eyes, the black cat again became coy and aloof.

"Since you don't want to acknowledge a master, then leave—this Secret Realm is mine now, and I don't welcome you!" Ye Liuyun spoke.

The black cat glanced at Ye Liuyun, lacking confidence, and tentatively asked: "Can I take that stone tablet with me?"

"Of course not; it's mine now!" Ye Liuyun flatly refused.

"Then… what should I do?" The black cat turned in place, evidently neither wanting to leave nor acknowledge Ye Liuyun as master.

"Acknowledge me as master, or else you leave—or I kill you!" White light began to gather again in Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil.

The black cat was clearly anxious: "Don't rush me, give me some time to think."

"No time for you; you're basically useless anyway—why should I keep you?" Ye Liuyun reapplied pressure.

"No ability? If it weren't for the master's stone tablet supplementing your fortune, your fortune would have been drained dry by me!" The black cat, acting human, rose to its feet, hands on hips, arguing with Ye Liuyun.

"You're absorbing human fortune?" Only then did Ye Liuyun understand what that black cat had just attacked. Recently, the text has been garbled badly, which motivates us to update faster. Please take a moment to exit reading mode. Thank you.
