Chapter 325

At this moment, Zhao Qingyun said, "Heavenly Monarch Cang Tian can sustain himself for at most seven more days; we must hurry to the Taihua Imperial Dynasty."

Xu Chen said, "Then let us depart."

He was not in a rush because, according to the original text, the Undying Medicine could not die.

Even if it appeared dead, as long as the head remained undamaged.

Then by injecting vitality into her head, it could be revived.

The physique of the Undying Medicine was not merely boasting.

Even the physique of a Martial Saint could not compare to one percent of the Undying Medicine.

"Whoosh!"

After speaking, Xu Chen's body flickered slightly and he directly exited the Dark Dragon Abyss.

Subsequently, Xu Chen was stunned to discover that all the women were already gone.

Xu Chen asked, "What happened?"

Zhao Qingyun said, "The avatar of Heavenly Monarch Cang Tian, which is the Busi Yao Fenshen, was more urgent and pulled Su Yuheng away earlier."

Xu Chen was stunned: "How long ago did they leave?"

Zhao Qingyun replied: "Probably a few days ago; Su Yuheng left after elevating her realm."

Xu Chen nodded: "No big problem; we will go to Jun Tian as well."

He remembered that something was supposed to happen at the Taihua Imperial Dynasty today.

Having thought this, he vanished from the spot.

Xu Chen arrived at the Taihua Imperial Dynasty and asked Zhao Qingyun about the situation.

Only then did he learn that today was not the Sacrificial Ceremony of the Taihua Imperial Dynasty.

It would be in a few days, so for now, no one could approach Taihua Mountain.

Because Taihua Mountain contained layers of royal Forbidden Restrictions and Arrays.

The Arrays might be easy to decipher, but these royal Forbidden Restrictions required the blood of the Taihua royal family to unlock.

After all, a Forbidden Restriction was like a lock, and royal blood was the key; otherwise, one would be blocked or punished by the Forbidden Restriction.

Some even became trapped within the Forbidden Restriction forever, unable to escape, and tragic downfalls were not uncommon. Xu Chen asked Zhao Qingyun: "Has anything happened recently in the Taihua Imperial Dynasty?"

Zhao Qingyun replied: "Yes, I have learned quite a few things, but to understand more clearly, you must ask Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian."

Xu Chen nodded; Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian was indeed from the Taihua Imperial Dynasty.

Therefore, Xu Chen communicated with all the masks, transmitting a message: "All Heavenly Monarchs, how have things been recently?" Many Heavenly Monarchs said in turn: "Basically nothing; does Heavenly Monarch Jun Tian have something to ask?"

Xu Chen said: "Something major will happen soon in the Taihua Imperial Dynasty; is anyone in the Taihua Imperial Dynasty?" Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian fell silent for a moment, then said: "I am here."

Xu Chen nodded: "Recently, I entrusted someone to handle a matter for me; go assist him." Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian immediately became curious: "Who?"

Xu Chen said: "Do you know Xu Chen 560?"

Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian nodded and said: "I heard he is a demon who caused a great disturbance in the Immortal Empire and ultimately took away Su Yuheng and the Busi Yao Fenshen.

He only recently came of age, yet already possesses the cultivation of a Four-Turn Martial Saint, crushing the Immortal Empire's Emperor Di Tianlong.

What shocked me most is that the Dark Son of Heaven of that Immortal Empire is actually his woman; that is quite outrageous." Xu Chen bared his teeth: "Roughly so; he has some connection to this seat; go assist him in saving the Undying Medicine's original body."

Upon hearing this, Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian was stunned: "Does he need my help?"

In his heart, Xu Chen, by his own ability, could come and go freely. Xu Chen said: "Be cautious."

Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian replied: "Very well, but the Taihua Imperial Dynasty has been unstable recently; the Sacrificial Ceremony is in a few days."

Xu Chen paused: "What instability?"

He remembered something was supposed to happen, but could not recall clearly.

Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian said: "At the Sacrificial Ceremony in three days, Princess Huayang, Yan Mi, was selected as the sacrificial offering; she is the most beautiful woman in the Taihua Imperial Dynasty.

She is an existence loved and admired by countless people, still a virgin, with Martial Saint-level strength.

The great powers from Taihua Mountain demanded that Huayang be offered at this Sacrificial Ceremony, otherwise they would surely annihilate the Taihua Imperial Dynasty.

The Emperor naturally dared not disobey; he selected Huayang and has even begun searching for another Sacred Child male." Xu Chen nodded; the so-called sacrifice naturally required a sacrificial offering.

Under normal circumstances, humans would not be used as sacrificial offerings.

But the demons and monsters in the Forbidden Land of Taihua Mountain, Yan Song treats them as gods.

The consequence of this is that a pair of Sacred Child male and female must be sacrificed every year.

However, it must be said that after Yan Song performed the sacrifices, indeed no one dared to invade the Taihua Imperial Dynasty.

Because the demons and monsters of Taihua Mountain also possessed some capability, having a Seven-turn Martial Saint.

Such a level of living being is extremely rare even in the Taihua Imperial Dynasty.

Therefore, Yan Song dared not disobey the commands of these ghosts.

And this year, Princess Huayang happened to be selected, perfectly meeting the requirements of these ghosts.

Although Yan Song was unwilling, he had no choice.

But at the same time, the Sacred Child male did not meet the requirements of the ghosts.

These ghosts demanded a Martial Saint Sacred Child male around eighteen years old; otherwise, his rank would be far too low compared to the Sacred Child female.

Yan Song was bitter; this was simply impossible to find!

Ultimately, Yan Song thought of a crooked scheme.

Then, Ye Xuan was inadvertently selected.

Although Ye Xuan was unwilling, he accidentally saved Princess Huayang.

This is the fundamental reason why Huayang and her mother have a favorable impression of Ye Xuan.

Xu Chen continued to ask: "How does Yan Song intend to search?"

Heavenly Monarch Hao Tian said: "They established the Hua Nu Tai; Princess Huayang is on the platform, and she will remain there for the next three days."

If any geniuses are willing to become the boy, you may step forward on your own, and the Imperial Dynasty will grant preferential treatment.

What kind of preferential treatment? That would be a reward of five hundred thousand taels of gold, automatic nobility for one's family members, and one million high-grade Spirit Stones. "Flame Heavenly Monarch Ye Xuan said languidly at this moment: "Then again, no one is a fool. Who would go throw their life away?"

Xu Chen really wanted to chime in at this moment and say that in his past life, he was precisely that fool who stumbled into it by accident.

He thought about it and decided against it—if he said it out loud, the plot would be ruined, so he'd better drop it.

Hao Tianjun shook his head and said: "No, there were plenty of people, crazy ones at that.

After all, only one person needs to die, and they can obtain boundless wealth and immense nobility.

It's far too good a deal. Every day people swarm in, a sea of humanity, but unfortunately none of them meet the requirements.

After all, Martial Saints around eighteen years old are truly too rare—one could say they barely exist." Xu Chen nodded. Indeed, if you said in their thirties, the Taihua Imperial Dynasty could find them; many Princes are of that age.

But eighteen years old is a bit far-fetched.

Ye Xuan asked curiously: "Then what? Did Yan Song give up?" Hao Tianjun shook his head and said: "No. To lure Martial Saints to come, Yan Song placed three Saint Grade Pills on top.

You all should know how difficult it is to refine a single Saint Grade Pill, yes?

At the very least, one thousand types of Saint Grade Spirit Medicine, then a Sacred Grade Alchemist must take action, refining for half a month before it can be completed. The preciousness of these Saint Grade Pills can be called exceedingly rare in this world. Once such a Pill appears, even Martial Artists go mad.

Now on this Hua Nu Tai, every day there are all manner of Martial Saints recklessly attempting to seize the Pills, then swagger off.

Unfortunately, only a few succeed. Most either fail to obtain the Pill, or get caught. But still, none around eighteen years old. Yan Song is still continuing to use the Pills to lure various Martial Saints to come." Hearing this, Ye Xuan's heart stirred at once.

Three Saint Grade Pills?

Others might not be able to.

But he, Ye Xuan, has his master Ling Zunzhe!

With his master's help, couldn't those three Saint Grade Pills be seized with the greatest of ease?

Then he could leave safely—what could be better than that?

Having thought it through, a flash of excitement crossed Ye Xuan's face.

Having information from the Nine Heavens is truly wonderful.

Now, as long as he can obtain those three Pills, surpassing Xu Chen would probably be no problem at all.

At this moment, a flash of resolve crossed his face.

This deal absolutely must be risked!
