Chapter 273: The Star Ship Escapes
Zhanyue felt a chill. If not for Lei Ying’s interruption, he might have continued his enlightenment indefinitely. Until he figured out the answer he wanted, who knows how long it would have taken. He might not have woken up even if his lifespan had been exhausted. Fortunately, Lei Ying broke his enlightenment in time. As she said, the time wasn’t right, and some blessings might turn out to be misfortunes.
“Little girl, hurry up. You’ve completed the Heavenly Book trial, you might be transported out soon,” Lei Ying urged.
“Oh,” Baizhi nodded her little head, looking at Zhanyue.
Zhanyue nodded slightly, giving an affirmative response. At least for now, Lei Ying hadn’t done anything harmful to them, and had even helped him and Baizhi. He naturally should keep his promise.
Baizhi touched the star ship with both hands, struggling to put it into her divine ability space. The star ship was ownerless, and the divine ability space was large enough. Sure enough, Lei Ying had guessed correctly, Baizhi did it.
The huge star ship instantly disappeared, entering the divine ability space. Baizhi and Zhanyue also fell from the sky. Zhanyue swallowed Baizhi and used water escape technique at the moment of touching the water surface to dispel the falling force. The two safely returned to the Ink Sea. In the Ink Sea world, the sudden disappearance of the star ship was naturally a big event, but all this was no longer important to them. This false world had completed its task of existence.
“I have to go,” Baizhi said, somewhat reluctantly.
“We’ll see each other outside. You go first,” Zhanyue comforted.
“Okay, be careful with your task too. Don’t fail,” Baizhi smiled, then saw Zhanyue turn back into a purple piece of wood, which she sent back to the divine ability space.
With the task completed, the entire world began to disappear. In the blink of an eye, Baizhi found herself in a white space, where everything was white except for white.
A person in white, whose face couldn’t be seen, walked over.
“Congratulations, you’ve completed the Heavenly Book trial. You can choose one thing as your reward,” the white-clothed person said without emotion, not seeming like a living being. He laid out a series of precious items before Baizhi.
“Wow! This... this...” Baizhi opened her small mouth in surprise, only regretting that she could only choose one thing. Finally, her gaze fell on a pill formula.
“Is this... is this the lost formula for the ‘Breaking Profound Pill’?” Baizhi still remembered what price a single Breaking Profound Pill had fetched at that auction.
“Hehe, now I can become the world’s richest person,” Baizhi smiled happily, taking the Breaking Profound Pill formula. She hadn’t expected to encounter this here.
“Sigh, after taking away the Life-Nurturing Soil, the oasis really disappeared. Fortunately, this is just a simulated virtual world, otherwise I would have committed a grave sin,” Zhanyue sighed, looking at the bones strewn about. The Heavenly Book’s simulation was too realistic, worthy of its name as a divine artifact.
“Where should we go next?” Yunyao hadn’t expected that one day, she would seek someone else’s opinion.
“We have no choice. We didn’t get any clues about other demon beasts or ‘divine artifacts’ here. I suddenly feel, have our thoughts been constrained by the legends of this world?” Zhanyue analyzed.
“What do you mean?” Yunyao frowned slightly, showing another kind of charm.
Zhanyue could only sigh that this woman was really beautiful, not inferior even to Lei Ying, and perhaps even more attractive because of her coldness.
“What are you looking at?” Yunyao knew Zhanyue was looking at her and asked coldly.
“You’re so beautiful, won’t you let others look? Isn’t that a bit too much?” Zhanyue suddenly felt like teasing Yunyao.
Yunyao still looked at him coldly, “Will those demon beasts commit suicide because I’m beautiful?”
“Well, not to that extent...”
“Then that’s it. Let’s focus on the task at hand. Haven’t you gotten tired of looking after so many days?” Yunyao wished she could gouge out Zhanyue’s eyes. If anyone else dared to be so unreasonable, she would have already taken action.
“I mean, we’ve always thought we need divine artifacts to eliminate demon beasts, but I feel that might not be necessary,” Zhanyue returned to the main topic.
“What do you want to do?” Yunyao asked.
“Currently, we have no information about the whereabouts of other demon beasts and divine artifacts, but there’s one demon beast whose location we know, and I happen to have a way to counter it. Why don’t we go eliminate it first?”
“You mean that spider?” Yunyao instantly remembered the canyon from before and the demon beast in it.
