Chapter 147: Taking the World as a Cage

Chen Yan.

Huo Luo.

Searched from Lord Shan Hu's memories.

That Innate Divine Monster sleeping under the Yellow Mud Sea was not born in the Earth Abyss...

But fell from the sky suddenly hundreds of years ago, bringing with it miserable wounds, in a very sorry state.

Adding up the date Huo Luo appeared in the Earth Abyss.

It was exactly the same time Chen Chen Yushu divided his divine intent and personally left the "Water-Dwelling Rongcheng Duming Fan Dongtian" to capture Chen Yan.

Brother Yue You's eyes flickered, changing to a playful expression, and he arrived at a draft.

"Chen Yushu often says that the heavenly fate is constant, flowing and changing, like a net; all things in this world are covered and restrained by it in the dark, difficult to escape.

Even with the supreme status of a Dao Lord, it is difficult to avoid the vulgar..."

Brother Yue You smacked his lips, sighing inexplicably:

"I previously thought he was hated by Heaven, cultivating bitterly in the Fan Dongtian for eight hundred years, having cultivated his brain into a state of demonic obsession, which is why he spoke such words to me? But looking at it this way, it actually holds some truth, a bit interesting?"

And after sighing.

After sighing inexplicably.

Brother Yue You became somewhat worried.

"Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi... this crazy person from the Zhong Yi Sword Sect is actually in the Earth Abyss? Looking at the direction Chen Hang and the others are heading, they wouldn't be going to that 'Golden Drum Cave' to pay a visit to Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi, right?"

After browsing through the life experiences of this Omen Ghost, Lord Shan Hu.

At this time, Brother Yue You also had some understanding of the human stories in the Earth Abyss, naturally knowing the relationship between Ding Xian and Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi.

If Chen Hang were really going to visit Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi.

If this person saw Chen Hang, it would be hard to guarantee he wouldn't offer a few words of advice and then conveniently add a block to Chen Chen Yushu.

And this spiritual body of his was currently in such a miserable state...

Even killing Lord Shan Hu, who was comparable to an Immortal Dao Small Jin Dan cultivator, took away more than half of his life, which was truly miserable and hard to describe.

If he were to face Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi head-on, it would undoubtedly be walking into his own death.

And in reality—

Even if Brother Yue You's true body arrived in person, he would definitely not be a match for Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi.

Although this person was once defeated by Chen Chen Yushu, the supernatural powers and abilities he learned were truly earth-shattering!

An Immortal Dao Great True Person with three flowers on top and five qi in the chest, even within the Eight Sects and Six Schools whose foundations were unfathomable, is a top-tier figure!

He can pluck stars from the sky above.

He can gather the nether spirits from the earth below!

Already ascended, breathing the candle of heaven, entering and exiting without interval, carrying groups of dragons, facing the Emperor True, ranked as an Immortal Sect!

Such a great power and giant, even if Brother Yue You was arrogant about his ancient origin as an Innate Divine Monster, he absolutely dared not treat him lightly.

He boasted that if his true body arrived and he fought with all his might, he still couldn't break through the Great Dao Celebration Cloud protecting Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi, let alone compete with this person.

And if Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi really had the intention to conveniently protect Chen Hang.

Brother Yue You could only stare blankly, helpless.

Although the matter of protection was only a possibility and was still Brother Yue You's suspicion, it could not be concluded.

But such an urgent matter.

He dared not gamble on that one line of possibility...

"Chen Yushu seems to value this child Chen Hang quite a bit, repeatedly ordering me to bring him back to the Innate Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong. If something truly goes wrong and he cannot be captured alive, he must be taken away as a corpse; he absolutely cannot be allowed to survive..."

Brother Yue You sighed bitterly, secretly thinking in his heart:

"But if Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi really takes action, even if I risk my life to fight, I won't be able to shake him in the slightest. In this case, what should be done?"

In distress.

Brother Yue You hesitated in place for a while, frowning and pacing.

After a moment.

A sinister and fierce look suddenly appeared on his face.

"Forget it, let's capture Chen Hang first. If Superintendent Qiao Yu Bi really takes action to protect him, then it's Chen Yushu's own bad fate. I have already done my best, so it can't be blamed on me!"

He flicked his wrist, and with the appearance of blue light, he reached out and grabbed a flying shuttle that was sharp at the top and narrow at the bottom.

This shuttle was the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo, a magic treasure, said to have come from a master who was good at refining tools outside the Xu Du Heaven, with a great background.

Later, after that master dissolved his body and reincarnated, it changed hands several times.

Finally, hundreds of years ago, it drifted to the South Sea Ape Department of the Xu Du Heaven, and was luckily obtained by the Ape Department's ruler, Yuan Fuzhen, who bestowed it upon his beloved son, Yuan Ju.

After Yuan Fuzhen was forced to commit suicide, although Yuan Ju failed to seize the throne and was exiled from the South Sea to the East Sea by the Ape Department, losing his position and power, he was only allowed to create the Lin Jiao Island lineage.

But for the sake of face, this Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo gifted by Yuan Fuzhen was still left to Yuan Ju.

Although this item's killing ability was not obvious, it possessed the great power to move through the void!

If the person using it had enough magic power, it was not impossible to move oneself from one boundary to another.

This was the origin of the name Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo!

During the battle between Master Junyao and Chen Chen Yushu, even though he didn't have time to fully refine this magic treasure, Brother Yue You relied entirely on the power of the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo to struggle and escape into the Earth Abyss, barely saving the life of his spiritual body.

This time.

He intended to rely on the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo to go directly to Chen Hang's side and capture him with thunderous means! Cut the Gordian knot!

"Damn it..."

Just like usual.

The flying shuttle in his palm didn't move at all. Brother Yue You fiddled with it for a while, but the shuttle even retracted the brilliance on its surface.

He frowned, unable to help but be greatly annoyed.

"Isn't it just using a bit of your magic power? Why be so stingy! I am doing serious business right now. If you offend me again, aren't you afraid of having your true consciousness erased?"

Brother Yue You shouted angrily at the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo.

Magic treasures that have cultivated true consciousness and possess wisdom like this, although their power is great.

Even without anyone driving them, their abilities when acting are not even below those of great supernatural beings.

But the artifact spirits of these magic treasures also have their own temperaments, just like a thousand people having a thousand faces, and cannot be treated the same.

And unfortunately, the artifact spirit of this Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo in Brother Yue You's hand was extremely slippery and strange, acting without following common sense, making Brother Yue You unable to fathom it.

Initially, when he drove the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo to move into the Earth Abyss, he used the little magic power he had left.

The Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo's artifact spirit naturally didn't bother to care much.

Letting him act as he pleased.

But Brother Yue You was now at the end of his rope...

Master Junyao's "Yuan Du Demon-Slaying Sword" was truly powerful, and even a drop of Chen Chen Yushu's pure yang essence blood only barely held onto Brother Yue You's life, unable to make him fully recover from his injuries.

In order to deal with Lord Shan Hu, this Omen Ghost, he had painstakingly swallowed yin miasma and turbid nether for a month before barely recovering some strength.

But the little magic power he had accumulated was still far from enough to drive the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo once.

In Brother Yue You's angry voice.

After a long time.

The flying shuttle slowly released a brilliant blue light, and within the brilliance, an old man with a short stature and white hair suddenly leaped out.

After appearing, he hummed twice, then put his hands behind his back, not paying much attention to Brother Yue You.

"You old man!"

A fierce light flashed in Brother Yue You's eyes, and his expression grew increasingly unkind.

This Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo artifact spirit was extremely slippery, perhaps because the limit of his true consciousness was approaching, and he had an attitude of not caring about anything.

When Brother Yue You turned into an ordinary demon snake and was chased by Madam Fei Hua until he had no way to heaven and no door to earth, he didn't help either.

Even if Brother Yue You shamed himself and laid down his face, rarely begging softly a few times, and even bringing out Chen Chen Yushu to threaten him.

The Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo artifact spirit just treated it as wind passing by his ears, not paying much attention.

Only when Brother Yue You mentioned Chen Chen Yushu did his expression become extremely strange.

Not fear, and not dread.

Just a kind of hidden disgust and disdain...

And if the artifact spirit had been willing to help at that time, how would Brother Yue You have been chased by Madam Fei Hua until he fled in a sorry state?

Like a stray dog without a home, almost losing his life.

"Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo, this is a big matter. If you are willing to contribute, I can swear to let bygones be bygones for past offenses!"

Forcing himself to suppress the anger in his heart, Brother Yue You barely spoke gently.

If his true body were here, or if this spiritual body were in its prime, he wouldn't need to act like this.

He could just refine the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo with great magic power and obtain an obedient magic treasure.

But in the current situation.

It was clear that in just a few days, Chen Hang would cross the Yellow Mud Sea and arrive at the Golden Drum Cave.

First, time was not waiting, and it was imminent.

And second.

If it came to ability, the current Brother Yue You was afraid he couldn't even fight this artifact spirit.

If he were to forcibly act to refine his true consciousness, he feared he would be killed in return...

"Damn that short-lived ghost Master Junyao! If he had come later, waiting for me to fully refine this magic treasure, it would naturally be as easy as moving my arm, following my heart! Why would I need to be so servile like now!"

The anger in his heart was already blazing, wishing he could slap this artifact spirit to death, but on the surface, he still had to remain calm, pretending to be amiable.

Brother Yue You barely squeezed out a smile, but his eyes stared fixedly at the artifact spirit.

"Daoist Yue, it's not that this old man is stingy, it's just that the true consciousness of this old man is reaching its limit. Every bit of magic power used is one step closer to the moment of death. I can't help, I really can't help you!"

The Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo artifact spirit scratched his head and opened his mouth lazily:

"If you want to use me, just swallow some more yin qi and wait for yourself to recover your magic power for a few more days, wouldn't that work?"

"A few days? There is no time to wait for a few days. In a few more days, Chen Hang will arrive at the Golden Drum Cave!"

Hearing this.

Brother Yue You couldn't help but curse in his heart.

"To tell the truth, when Yuan Ju gifted this old man to the Daoist, I was also caught off guard, only thinking I was going to be refined into an obedient puppet... After my true consciousness reaches its limit, the Daoist only needs to nurture it for a few years, and he can obtain a new artifact spirit, without losing anything.

And what about this old man? Only this old man's life is finished! Drifting from outside the sky to your Xu Du Heaven, this life is a damn life of toil!"

The Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo artifact spirit laughed strangely, his eyeballs rolling wildly, saying:

"But who would have thought that the Daoist would be so heavily injured? To the point that even the magic power to refine this old man is gone? Good thing! Good thing!

I didn't expect that as my limit approaches, this old man could still enjoy such rare freedom, without having to listen to others' commands like a puppet on a string!

Such a good thing! Even if you gave me a Heavenly Palace Goddess, I absolutely wouldn't trade!"

This attitude of the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo, as if he had achieved his goal, was not concealed at all, making Brother Yue You's eyes spray fire.

Creatures like the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo, although they have no blood or flesh and cannot cultivate orthodoxly.

Because their true consciousness is born, they can also swallow the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and refine it into magic power to nourish their own true consciousness.

The lifespan of artifact spirits often exceeds that of cultivators by an unknown amount, often envied by the world.

If there are no accidents, and their true consciousness is not erased or the magic treasure's form is not damaged, they can even live until the seas dry and mountains crumble.

But every drink and every peck is determined by heaven.

Creatures of this kind, once their limit approaches, have no method to extend their life.

Unlike cultivators who can take elixirs and spiritual medicines to extend their vitality.

Once their lifespan is exhausted, they can only end up with their bodies dead and souls extinguished.

It is rumored that when the master outside the sky refined the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo, it was long ago in ancient times.

That this artifact spirit could live safely until now and drift from the vast cosmic void to the Xu Du Heaven is already truly not easy.

In this situation.

It seems there is nothing in this world that can tempt him anymore?

No wonder he is like a piece of tough meat.

Immune to oil and salt!

Brother Yue You's face sank, and fierce light flashed in his eyes.

He was just about to speak.

Suddenly, his body sank, and then a light laugh came from within his body.

"Why go so far? After much running and toil, having finally found my spiritual offspring, why start an internal conflict and ruin my good deed?"

This light laugh seemed to ring out inside Brother Yue You's body.

And seemed to be everywhere, omnipresent!

Brother Yue You was stunned at first, then a look of wild joy appeared on his face.

And the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo artifact spirit, who was hugging his arms and feeling smug, was terrified, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

Although he was just an artifact spirit and could not cultivate orthodoxly, he had lived for ancient years and was well-informed.

This tone!

This laughter!

It was clearly that person!

"Zhi... True Person Chen Yushu?"

The Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo artifact spirit was shocked: "Aren't you trapped in the Fan Dongtian of the Innate Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong? How can you still manifest in the world? Aren't you afraid of death?!"

His words.

Were actually what the shocked and uncertain Brother Yue You wanted to ask.

He had known Chen Chen Yushu for these years, and he knew clearly how terrifying that heavenly punishment was.

Last time, in order to find out Master Junyao's true situation, Chen Chen Yushu didn't hesitate to tour outside the Fan Dongtian with his divine intent, which had already paid a huge price.

Not only did he sacrifice a Du E talisman edict personally refined by the Tribulation Immortal Ancestor.

Even the cultivation of his true body within the Fan Dongtian was vaguely shaved off.

The three flowers on top shook and trembled, his Dao records unstable—

Such bleeding and flesh-cutting.

If it were for Master Junyao's sake, Brother Yue You could understand it somewhat.

After all, that person was the champion of the previous Danyuan Assembly and the number one primordial spirit in the universe today!

Just like Chen Xiangxian.

As long as Master Junyao is not dead, Chen Chen Yushu cannot sleep peacefully for a day.

But now.

For the sake of Chen Hang, who isn't even a Jin Dan.

He wants to do it again for such a huge price?

"Chen Yushu, what exactly did you calculate with the Zhong Tian Dou Shu? You actually dare to manifest your thoughts outside the Fan Dongtian! Is Chen Hang, to you, perhaps the next Master Junyao? Wait..."

Brother Yue You was shocked, and suddenly a flash of inspiration appeared, and he remembered another name.

Before Master Junyao...

Chen Chen Yushu had also toured outside the Fan Dongtian with his divine intent and captured an offspring back to the Innate Xiantian Xiantian Mo Zong.

A few months later.

After persuasion failed, he personally swallowed her.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shout:

"Could he be another Chen Yan?!"

"He is also favored by the Sui Yu Demon God, and he seems to have obtained that magic art of prayer and worship, but I don't know if he has passed the Six Dust Demon's test? On this point, even with my Zhong Tian Dou Shu, I can no longer calculate it."

Chen Chen Yushu sighed and opened his mouth softly, his tone carrying helplessness, in a joking tone:

"These damned beasts are truly not letting people worry, are they not filial to their parents at all? I just want to peacefully unite with the Dao, and then lift my hand to pluck that Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit.

One after another, they all come to add blocks to me out of thin air? Truly annoying!"

Afterward.

He changed the subject and smiled again:

"But those are all small matters. Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo, this time it is rare for an old friend from the Xu Huang Heaven to meet, why are you unhappy?"

Brother Yue You was dazed for a moment, not understanding.

And the Escape Dun Dun Jiesuo artifact spirit coughed awkwardly and shrank his body slightly.
