Chapter 76: Hundred Flowers Fairy

【Ding dong!】

【Issuing random task: Please host go to the Ancient Grand Formation to rescue the trapped person; the system will reward the host with one Emperor's Body Bone, which can be used by oneself or given to others.】

「Oh? 」

「One Emperor's Body Bone? 。」

Upon hearing such a reward, Lin Yang immediately laughed.

Emperor's Body Bone, as the name suggests, is the bone of an emperor's body.

If you fuse this emperor's body bone into your own body, then you will immediately have the use of an emperor's body bone.

Thus, you will be very awesome.

As long as you don't die prematurely during the growth process, you are destined to cultivate to the Emperor Realm.

Moreover, after the fusion, the entire cultivation will become very easy.

Such a reward can be said to be very attractive to him.

Furthermore.

The system suddenly gave him a reward of a complete emperor bone, indicating that he might use this emperor bone next.

If he guessed correctly, the story's direction should be him entering the Ancient Grand Formation to rescue the trapped person, and although he rescued that person, the formation's power would shatter all his bones.

Then.

He used this emperor's body bone to reforge his physique, then came back to life.

So he is truly a wage earner, spending the reward he earned through his own efforts on himself.

The emphasis is on participation.

So he almost without hesitation accepted this task.

After all, he had no choice.

Furthermore.

The system said this emperor's body bone can be given to others, and it might also be indicating that someone around him will have their bones broken and could use this emperor's body bone.

So, whether for himself or for those around him, he could only accept the task.

Soon.

Lin Yang, according to the system's prompt, quickly arrived before the Ancient Grand Formation.

It was an abyss, forming a stark contrast with the hundred-flower splendour when he first entered the secret realm.

The abyss was pitch black like ink, the whole space seeming to be filled with darkness.

It was so black that it made people's hearts tremble, as if some terrifying creature might rush out at any moment.

Like the polar night!

Who could have imagined that outside such a beautiful secret realm, deep inside lay such a gloomy and terrifying place.

Moreover.

Who is the person imprisoned within the formation?

The opposition of black and white is clear-cut, leaving only a bottomless black abyss.

Standing above, not even a single hair can be seen.

Let alone rescuing someone.

Immediately.

Lin Yang only hesitated a moment, then smiled faintly, as if he had found a way to break the formation.

He leapt up and then gracefully jumped into the abyss, just like the male lead in a TV show.

To break this formation, one must enter this situation.

Moreover, since the system dares to let him complete the rescue task, it shows that this formation is still within his control range; even if he jumps in to rescue someone, there will be a way to solve it.

He absolutely trusts the system on this point.

The system will never let him do things beyond his ability.

But as Lin Yang just jumped in.

【Host, what are you doing? This formation is easy to solve from the outside, but inside there's no way to solve it.】

「What!!? 」 Lin Yang's mind went blank instantly.

「Why didn't you say earlier. 」

【I also didn't know you would jump directly.】

Lin Yang: "……"

And as Lin Yang entered the abyss in an instant, he felt the formation's domineering power!

A black light enveloped the surroundings, slowly draining all vitality and life force from the formation.

Even with his strength, dealing with it was extremely painful.

「System, what now? Do you have a way to get out? 」

【If you break through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm, you could still forcefully break this formation from inside, but with your current strength, you simply cannot break the formation.】

Upon hearing that.

Lin Yang was speechless; his method of breakthrough is his disciple's cultivation return, and how easy would it be to break through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm?

Moreover, Li Yatou is currently busy with the Li family's reconstruction; who knows if she will sneak some refinement amidst her busyness and quietly give him some returns.

As for Ye Xiaozhi, her cultivation return was just recently received; how could she get another return so quickly?

He then tried communicating with Xiaohei; Xiaohei possesses Quasi-Emperor Realm strength, so it should definitely work.

But he discovered that this formation has severed all contact with the outside world.

That is to say, he basically has no way to communicate with the outside.

Unless someone can actively find him without needing to summon.

Where could there be such a person?

Lin Yang regretted immensely; this time he was really overconfident, and he seriously imagined himself as the male lead in a TV show, the kind who wouldn't die even if he jumped off a cliff.

Now, what should we do?

"System, as a system, don't you have any other way?"

"Or, could you reward me with a quasi-emperor expert like Xiao Hei to help a bit?"

"Host, if rewards could be given, the system would definitely give you rewards."

"But the system fundamentally cannot give rewards; effort yields reward, the host wants to gain without labor, and the system has no permission to generate rewards."

Upon hearing the system's words, Lin Yang could not defend himself despite a hundred mouths.

That's also true.

All the system's rewards are based on completing disciple-recruitment tasks, completing tasks issued by the system, or receiving rewards after a disciple makes a breakthrough in cultivation.

Could it be that I'm really going to be trapped inside?

He unwillingly swung his sword a few times, using all his ultimate techniques, but in the end he couldn't break through.

Moreover, the more he resisted, the greater the pressure from the formation became.

Could it be that I must remain trapped until the disciple's cultivation returns to the quasi-emperor level?

"It's useless; don't waste more strength trying to break the great formation. If it could be broken, I would have done so already, and the more you resist, the greater the pressure it will exert on you."

"It would be better to conserve strength; perhaps you could live a bit longer."

Behind Lin Yang, a faint woman's voice suddenly came.

Lin Yang turned his head to follow the sound and saw that it was a woman.

Her clothes were tattered, her face covered in blood and exhaustion; her former beauty was nowhere to be found, only a gaunt appearance that evoked pity.

"Are you the person trapped inside this formation?"

Lin Yang endured the immense pressure within the great formation and spoke.

"Eh?"

Upon hearing Lin Yang's words, the woman seemed somewhat surprised; she lifted her exhausted eyelids and glanced at Lin Yang.

"Do you know me?"

"I don't know you; someone just asked me to save you."

Since it was known there was no way out, Lin Yang stepped forward to examine the person's condition.

This person, he had indeed never seen before.

Moreover, her slender features possessed a fresh, otherworldly beauty, but under the torment of the great formation, her eyes had long lost their former brightness, her eye sockets were sunken, her cheekbones became more prominent; one could guess that before being trapped here, she must have been an extraordinarily beautiful woman.

At the same time, her vitality was continually draining, and her lifespan had also been reduced by more than half.

She faced the danger of falling at any moment.

Upon hearing that the other party had come to rescue her, the woman's eyes flickered with a hint of hope.

"Who sent you to rescue me?"

Lin Yang replied, "Sorry, I cannot disclose that."

The woman fell silent for a few seconds, then spoke: "As the Hundred Flowers Fairy, I thank you for coming to rescue me, but it seems we cannot get out."

"Are you the Hundred Flowers Fairy?" Lin Yang stared intently at the woman.
