Imperial God Emperor (Web Novel)
chapter-514

“Really?”

“The sect elders have finally found us?”

“Haha, that’s great, we’re going to be safe.” “

The sect disciples were jumping up and down with excitement.

For them, who have been in a state of anxiety for more than a month, it had been nearly too much. These days, they had felt like they were floating on the ocean and would capsized and lose their life at any time. They had nearly collapsed.

The elders of the sect had finally found them?

The string that was drawn tight in the sect disciples’ heart could finally let go.

“Good, when the elders are here, we must make those who insulted us pay the price,” the sect disciple that Ye Qingyu slapped at the beginning said through clenched teeth with a happy and evil expression on his face.

He was staring at Ye Qingyu and laughing grimly to himself as he spoke.

What he meant, even a fool would know.

“That’s right, we must properly settle the accounts at that time, otherwise, anyone would dare to trample on our sect.”

“Hey, this is really good news.”

“Haha, that’s right, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.”

All sect disciples were smiling upon hearing the news, looking at Ye Qingyu like they were looking at a pig to be slaughtered.

Ye Qingyu curled his lips and did not speak.

He leisurely stored the [Endowment Bone Demon Source] into the [Cloud Top Cauldron].

The Ye Qingyu now had no mood to pay attention to these stupid trash.

After leaving Heaven Wasteland Domain, without the energy of the eaarth fire spirit pit, Ye Qingyu could no longer refine the [Blood Drinker Sword]. His own yuan qi was obviously far from enough to operate the copper cauldron to begin refining, but the energy contained in these [Endowment Bone Demon Source] seemed useful for this purpose.

It may be a bit of a problem to have the older generation of the sect coming.

But Ye Qingyu did not have to worry too much.

If they could not come to an agreement, they could just flee. He could bring the girl Yu Xiaoxing to hide in this world for a period of time.

Since the so-called heavenly gate training zone was this dangerous, then there would not be too many forces entering Clear River Domain, and with the several life protecting weapons on him, Ye Qingyu did not need to worry about surviving.

The only problem was the curse mark of the Demon Spider Race on him, and if he was found by the experts of the Demon Spider Race, that would be a real problem.

Ye Qingyu calmly decided to observe the situation first.

As they were speaking, the crowd of people quickly left the stone forest.

They had not walked far when, on the ground covered with wolf corpses, there were something wriggling. And then strange black finger-sized worms suddenly drilled out from nowhere, devouring the many wolf corpses and even the blood-stained soil...

If Lin Yi was here, he would be scared to death.

Because these were the legendary Demon Corpse Worms.

It is said that these worms were insects grown after the death of a demon god when their body was destroyed by the decaying power of the world. They feed on the blood and flesh of demon gods and are near immune to physical attack, pervasive, and terrifying to the extreme.

This land was undergoing a change that was not known to anyone.

……

During the day, the sect disciples were constantly shifting their location to avoid the pursuit of the Demon Spider Race.

Along the way, they encountered many rare fierce beasts.

The most dangerous time was when they were gathering water at a waterfall pool and a few sect disciples greedily leaped into the water to catch white spirit fish. And for some reason, they provoked a semi dragon-scaled giant Jiao [1] with a double horn.

[1] A mythical dragon with the ability to control rain and floods

This was a semi Jiao dragon, ferocious and brutal.

Ye Qingyu had exerted tremendous efforts, and fought hand to hand, only to be able to break off a dragon horn and pull out more than 10 dragon hairs. It was only then that he scared the dragon away.

In addition, he had killed all kinds of fierce beasts, strange creatures and demon species.

In the end, Ye Qingyu’s last set of clothes was torn in battle, and he had to use the skin of a Demon Wind-Winged Wolf and dragon’s hair to make a temporary nondescript robe, that draped over and covered his body.

The Ye Qingyu now, covered in blood, dressed in animal skin, was no different from a real barbarian.

Yu Xiaoxing was heartlessly laughing at one side.

She, who was born in the Imperial family, cultivated as the future Crown Prince, and possessed military and civil skills that were considered second to none in the Snow Empire. However, she surprisingly did not know anything at all about feminine arts such as needlework, and of course, could not help Ye Qingyu make clothes.

Later, the sect disciples were scared out of their wits.

The terrifying extent of the intermediate area of the heavenly gate training zone was obviously far beyond their initial expectations. The fierce beasts, demon species and strange creatures that died in the hands of Ye Qingyu all possessed the strength of Heaven Ascension boundary, especially the semi Jiao dragon. Without Ye Qingyu, they most likely would have all been eaten.

Even so, in the course of the events, there were four or five disciples that died under the claws of these beasts.

The rest of the guys that survived, at this time, had learned to behave.

Each and every one of them, as soon as they came near Ye Qingyu, began to act close and friendly with him, hoping that Ye Qingyu could protect them. Now even a fool could tell that they were lucky to have Ye Qingyu with them, otherwise they would have been completely wiped out already.

Ye Qingyu also did not bother paying any attention to them.

Now Ye Qingyu also noticed something.

These sect disciples, besides Lin Yi and a few others, were no different to a stupid pig. Although both their yuan qi and cultivation were impressive, cultivation techniques were also extremely exquisite, and they possessed powerful weapons, they had no actual combat experience and were cowardly and incompetent.

And most importantly, they obviously did not have the experience to survive in the intermediate area of the heavenly gate training zone. They were not aware of the dangers here at all. At first, they were dashing here and there like it was their back garden, stirring up some disasters. After the death of a few people, they were scared of making mistakes, every one of them like a complete rookie.

It was only after asking Lin Yi that Ye Qingyu knew that this group of people had only trained in heavenly gate training zone once or twice before, but each time it was at the beginner training area, and this was their first time at the intermediate training area.

Ye Qingyu shook his head.

The following day, they hid themselves from place to place, and mistakenly broke into the territory of some strange immemorial demon beast again. Battered and exhausted, even Ye Qingyu felt that all his bones were almost all breaking.

Several times he was almost swallowed by some of the demon creatures. Fortunately, his bones and flesh were too hard, that they could not bite through him. While some treated Ye Qingyu like a stone, directly swallowed him, and he had to fight his way out from the stomach of these giant beasts...

“Luckily I didn’t come out of the feces of these giant beasts...”

Ye Qingyu did not know what to say.

This experience was so peculiar and disturbing.

Fortunately, silly dog Little Nine was still in deep sleep in the [Cloud Top Cauldron] space, while Ximen Yeshui and Wen Wan were not present. If these people knew, they most likely would laugh their head off.

But in the following few days, Ye Qingyu’s harvest was extremely huge.

Heavenly gate training zone was a big hunting ground, where there was a variety of ores, divine materials, medicinal herbs and many strange creatures. The major forces of Clear River Domain treated this area like a wheat field, coming to harvest once every few years. Ye Qingyu, this outsider, picked up some unexpected benefits this time.

In addition to hunting strange species and hunted by strange species, Ye Qingyu also collected many divine materials and rare medicinal herbs. His harvest was absolutely huge.

The sect disciples also profited quite a lot.

In every immemorial foreign domain, there must be rare treasures. Ye Qingyu killed the beasts, and these guys also followed and dug up a lot of treasures in the surroundings

Ye Qingyu was simply an unbeatable monster, even if those demon god species, whose strength far exceeds that of Ye Qingyu, held him on the ground and beat him violently, no matter how they bit and chewed, they still could not kill Ye Qingyu.

In such a state, time slowly went by.

The spirit lamp in Huang Xin’s hands was growing brighter and brighter.

And the curse mark of the Demon Spider Race on the people’s arms was warmer than before, indicating that the hunter of the Demon Spider Race was close by.

One day.

Early morning.

Ye Qingyu sat crossed legged on a rock, draped in animal skin, dew around the tip of his hair, sparkling and translucent, and breathed in and out, cultivating the nameless breathing technique...

Although his spirit was incomplete, his yuan qi was unable to return to its original state, but Ye Qingyu still maintained the habit of practicing nameless breathing technique daily.

The sun was slowly rising in the distance.

Ye Qingyu opened his eyes.

The dew on his eyebrows slid down like a bead of jade.

He ended the training of nameless breathing technique, as his mind sank into the dantian world, and began to observe the inside situation of the [Cloud Top Cauldron].

During these days, Ye Qingyu had already consumed 100 of the [Endowment Bone Demon Source] from the Demon Wind-Winged Wolves, using it to operate the sacrificial space of the [Cloud Top Cauldron] to refine the [Blood Drinker Sword].

At this point, the [Blood Drinker Sword] embryo was more clear and distinct, and had taken the appearance of a sword. The embryo was somewhat similar to [Little Shang] sword, except a little larger, at one meter wide and three meters long. It was covered with blood patterns, vibrating and wandering, which were the natural formation chains formed from the decomposition of the blood vine endowment bone!

“The refining time is taking longer than I expected. With such a speed, I estimate that it will take half a year to successfully refine this [Blood Drinker Sword].”

Ye Qingyu made a judgment in his mind.

When the giant sword embryo had been refined and purified, the impurity unceasingly removed, the final sword form should be different to the [Little Shang] sword.

But this kind of speed was still a bit too slow.

Ye Qingyu let out a sigh.

After pondering, Ye Qingyu suddenly thought of something.

He, from the storage space of the [Cloud Top Cauldron], selected a number of treasures, which were all materials he obtained during his time at the heavenly gate training grounds, including a dragon horn, and added them all to the [Cloud Top Cauldron] refining space.

“Since the speed is slow, then take your time, add some rare ores and materials in to promote the grade of the sword. Patient work makes a fine product. Let’s create a real sword.”

Ye Qingyu decided to invest greatly.

Having done all this, the sect disciples had woken up.

They have become accustomed to Ye Qingyu being on the lookout every night, and slept soundly.

“Get ready to go, we can’t stay in one place for too long,” Lin Yi commanded.

The crowd packed their belongings, ready to switch to another location.

Just then, Lin Yi’s body suddenly went stiff.

Ye Qingyu, too, suddenly felt the hairs on his body stand up on its end, as if a beast of death had fixed its eyes on him, and an unprecedented sensation of danger enveloped him——
