Chapter 112: Ancient Battlefield
112. Chapter 112 Ancient Battlefield
When she discovered that any attack was ineffective against the God-Devouring Ant, the female cultivator finally panicked.
"Wait!"
"This time it was my fault; I will leave immediately."
The female cultivator's words made Luo Yao laugh out loud. "You wanted to kill me just now, but now that you realize you can't win, you want to leave? Where in the world does such a good thing exist?"
The female cultivator's face turned gloomy; since she broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, when had she ever suffered such humiliation?
But mainly, she had been too hasty; if she had waited for her injuries and Spirit Power to recover before blocking Luo Yao, she wouldn't have been so disheveled.
"Do you know why that person betrayed me?" the female cultivator suddenly brought up something else. Under Luo Yao's impatient gaze, she continued, "Because I possess a map regarding a certain Secret Realm?"
"Could it be that you accidentally wandered into the Ancient Battlefield!"
After those great powers died, they turned into Ghost Cultivators and became kings and lords within the Ancient Battlefield.
Moreover, Fang Qingyan received the inheritance of Danxuan Heavenly Venerable, which contained countless Spirit Herbs, and Fang Qingyan also gave half of them to her.
Boom!
The female cultivator was fast, but Luo Yao, piloting the flying boat, also quickly closed the distance.
Of course, there were also many cultivators whose lifespans were nearly exhausted who deliberately entered the Ancient Battlefield, just to become Ghost Cultivators, so they could continue to live and still have hope of becoming immortals.
"Hmm?"
Luo Yao chased after her again.
And the Ancient Battlefield, having undergone a great battle, was an extremely Yin place very suitable for Ghost Cultivators to cultivate.
Instead, more and more Yin Qi appeared and drilled into Luo Yao's body.
After giving her instructions, Luo Yao left the space and continued on her journey.
"Great!"
Once a living person enters, they will all be captured by Ghost Cultivators and treated as a dessert after a meal.
At this time, Xiao Kui had already broken through to the ninth layer of Qi Refining, but the enemies Luo Yao encountered were mostly in the Foundation Establishment Stage, which meant Xiao Kui's help couldn't be of any use.
So she cultivated desperately; with this hammer, her strength could increase significantly, and facing the Foundation Establishment Peak would not be a problem then.
Therefore, Luo Yao now had the Spirit Herbs to easily gather the Red Sun Pill.
She didn't know much about the Ancient Battlefield, but the one thing she was clear on was that she must leave at the midnight hour every five days, otherwise she would be trapped inside the Ancient Battlefield and unable to leave.
This reminded Luo Yao that the God-Devouring Ant was not invincible and still had quite a few weaknesses.
Foundation Establishment cultivators were not made of clay; they had diverse methods, and if she underestimated them, she would die without even knowing how.
Was this world too crazy, or had she not woken up and was still in a dream?
Luo Yao felt somewhat annoyed, and as she delved deeper, the clear sky began to turn dim and dark, with not a shred of sunlight visible.
Just like before in the Secret Realm, when the Star Palace cultivator used a Dharma Treasure to immobilize the God-Devouring Ant, the God-Devouring Ant was not invincible.
The lightning struck the God-Devouring Ant, instantly causing its body to stiffen, unable to move.
Helpless, Luo Yao had to return to the Space Magic Treasure first, check the ancient texts, and make plans after understanding the Yin Qi.
Moreover, the Spirit Qi around also became thin.
However, this harvest was not bad; that man's hammer could be used to forge a Dharma Treasure for Xiao Kui, and besides that, she learned another weakness of the God-Devouring Ant.
Luo Yao frowned, had to withdraw the God-Devouring Ant, and then took out the Wuji Skyfire Fan to chase after the female cultivator.
And after that female cultivator left, she looked in the direction where Luo Yao was, her eyes filled with resentment.
"What I know is the Red Sun Pill; this pill is the simplest to refine, and consuming one can resist the erosion of Yin Qi for twelve hours."
Luo Yao suddenly frowned; she found the surrounding environment was not right.
So she decisively gave up the pursuit and killing.
Luo Yao was overjoyed and hurried to the Alchemy Room to prepare to refine the Pill.
Seeing that Luo Yao was actually unmoved, the female cultivator's face also turned ugly. "I can swear, I absolutely did not lie."
A Li told everything she knew. "In the past, there were various methods to resist Yin Qi, including Dharma Treasures, Talisman Paper, and Pills, etc."
And the female cultivator took the opportunity to quickly escape from the God-Devouring Ant's encirclement.
Thinking of this, Luo Yao warned herself to be cautious next time.
This time she continued to pursue and kill the female cultivator, which was too impulsive.
"A disciple of the Taixu Sect, right? I, Zhao Yan, will remember this grudge."
The female cultivator took out a Talisman Paper and stuck it on her body, causing her speed to increase again.
Obviously, the thunder just now was emitted by the female cultivator.
"Hmm?"
"Red Flame Stone, Flame Grass..."
When the female cultivator's Spirit Power recovers, the outcome might be reversed.
She had clearly avoided the path of the Ancient Battlefield; either the map she bought was a fake, or she had walked out of the way while chasing and killing the female cultivator just now.
The path of Ghost Cultivators is naturally nothing rare in the Immortal Cultivation World, but places suitable for Ghost Cultivators to cultivate are extremely scarce.
Luo Yao didn't know what others were thinking; after chasing for a while, she had to give up.
Afterwards, she found a place to recover her injuries; after her injuries recovered, she decisively returned to the place where they had just fought, planning to take revenge on Luo Yao.
They rubbed their eyes, looking at each other; could it be that they woke up too vigorously?
What did they just see?
A little girl at the eighth layer of Qi Refining was chasing and killing a Foundation Establishment cultivator?
"Red Sun Pill?"
Terrifying flames surged toward the female cultivator.
The aggrieved souls here have always been trapped in the cycle of rebirth, remaining within the Ancient Battlefield.
Boom!
No sooner had she spoken than a bolt of lightning struck from a clear sky, heading straight for the female cultivator's side.
Tens of millions of cultivators, even Immortals, had died in the Ancient Battlefield.
Luo Yao paused, "Then what Spirit Herb is needed?"
Regardless, she had already arrived at one of Pingzhou's forbidden zones—the Ancient Battlefield.
Come to think of it, since she learned Alchemy, she hadn't refined many Pills, so she felt somewhat rusty now.
As one chased and the other fled, cultivators passing by stopped in shock.
Ah Li counted on his fingers, then flew happily to Luo Yao's side. "Master, we have all these Spirit Herbs."
She had never actually thought she could kill this Foundation Establishment Stage female cultivator; after all, she knew her own limits. The gap in power between them was too vast; she was merely borrowing external force to bridge the difference.
"Master, Yin Qi is a great tonic for Ghost Cultivators, just as cultivators absorb Spirit Qi, but for Immortal cultivators, Yin Qi is a deadly poison."
Once Luo Yao entered the Space Magic Treasure, she tossed the hammer to Xiao Kui.
"I should have asked more about the situation in the Ancient Battlefield beforehand."
Luo Yao frowned. If this were back at Xuanyuan Sect, she would have been eager for the Secret Realm, but now that she lacked no resources, the Secret Realm's appeal had plummeted.
Of course, this was only one of the dangers of the Ancient Battlefield; there were others Luo Yao truly did not know.
That was the fear of lightning.
Once Yin Qi entered her body, it not only devoured the Spirit Power within Luo Yao but also eroded her meridians.
Originally, the surroundings were dense forests, but now they had become sparse.
Seeing this, Xiao Kui's eyes lit up. "I will soon forge a suitable Dharma Treasure; by then, I will be able to help Master."
Within the Secret Realm, Luo Yao and Fang Qingyan swept through dozens of Palaces, naturally gathering many Spirit Herbs.
Unfortunately, Luo Yao left immediately.
Fortunately, she now had enough Spirit Herbs, so failure would not matter.
Finally, after failing five or six times, Luo Yao successfully refined the Red Sun Pill.
With this Pill, she could resist the erosion of Yin Qi, and her strength would not drop drastically. (End of Chapter)
