Chapter 1049 Ch 1049: Aura Of Immortal Source

"It's all my fault. If it wasn't because I didn't listen to you, Lan Xiang would have been fine!" Shu Xiang blamed herself for the current situation.

The giant centipede fled with all its might. By not letting Lan Xiang go, it made Ye Xiao and Shu Xiang helpless.

"Now is not the time to blame yourself. Let's catch up with that big guy first. There must be a way to save Lan Xiang." Ye Xiao comforted Shu Xiang. His brows were tightly knitted. He did not expect that such a thing would happen.

"En."

Shu Xiang nodded at Ye Xiao. She suddenly felt that this young man in front of her was much more composed and wise than she had imagined. It was just that she had always been prejudiced against Ye Xiao and thus did not notice it.

The two of them followed the direction where the giant centipede had fled. After an unknown period of time, a desolate cave appeared in front of them. There were waves of demonic aura coming out from the cave.

Ye Xiao frowned when he arrived in front of this cave. It is because other than the demonic aura, he could also feel a very different kind of aura coming from the cave. This aura was something that he was very familiar with. He had felt something like this before, but he could not remember where.

Ye Xiao knitted his brows and tried to remember, but when he really do remember, he was shocked.

"Source?"

"Immortal Source?"

Ye Xiao suddenly remembered that he had felt this kind of aura from the Source of his Small Universe and the Source of the Void Realm.

Every Source's aura is different, but there is one similarity. They are too pure and ethereal.

Even if it is the Source of a demonic world, although it'll be filled with completely demonic energy, but that demonic energy will still be too pure. That's why they are sources.

Although it was distinct and far weaker, but Ye Xiao still felt the same aura that he felt from the Source of his Small Universe before it was swallowed by the Domineering God Crystal and the strands of Void Realm's Source.

Ye Xiao guessed that this aura must be coming from Immortal Source, for this was the reason why he dived into the Immortal Water Lake. This Immortal Source was the reason why more than a thousand people dived into the lake.

It is just that, Ye Xiao never expected this thing to appear in such a place.

But when he thought about the fact that the giant centipede is actually a Peak Immortal Emperor Realm demonic beast and it was only one of its kind here. Other than this giant centipede, every demonic beast in this spatial zone is either in the Immortal King Realm or below.

It means this giant centipede was the strongest demonic beast present in this spatial zone. And if this is true, then it is logical for the Immortal Source to be here. It means the giant centipede must be the guardian of Immortal Source.

When Ye Xiao thought of this, he took a deep breath.

"As long as I can get my hands on the Immortal Source, this test will be over. After this, the Realm of Dreams might take another test from me or it will send me back with a reward. In simple words, all I have to do now is to obtain the Immortal Source." Ye Xiao silently muttered in his heart but didn't show any sign of excitement on his face.

It is because Shu Xiang was beside him. She and every single person entered Immortal Water Lake for the sake of obtaining Immortal Source.

If he told her, then it'll be problematic.

Thus, he chose to keep silent about Immortal Source.

"This cave should be this guy's nest. Let's go in and take a look!" Ye Xiao's eyes shone with a strange light as he spoke. And after that, he quickly moved toward the interior of the cave.

Shu Xiang's eyes slightly fluctuated as she looked at Ye Xiao's back. It could be considered that she met Ye Xiao by a chance, but when she encountered a crisis, Ye Xiao was there to help her at the first possible moment. He wouldn't even care about her confronting him.

This caused Ye Xiao's image in Shu Xiang's heart to change once again.

Very quickly, the two of them entered the cave, one in front and one behind. They found that this cave was naturally formed and had a very deep appearance.

It was slightly harder for them to enter the cave. The giant centipede had disappeared without a trace. It could be seen just how big this cave was.

Ye Xiao and Shu Xiang carefully walked forward, and finally found a little bit of light in the direction they were heading.

Soon, the light became bigger and bigger. When the two of them really got close to the light, they found that it was the core area of the giant centipede's lair.

This area should be within the inner area of a giant mountain. It was several hundred meters in diameter and extremely wide.

"Roar!"

Seeing Ye Xiao and Shu Xiang has chased after it, the giant centipede let out a roar, as if warning the two not to get close to it.

Not far away, Lan Xiang's delicate body was lying on the ground. There were no obvious injuries on her body, so she should have fainted.

"It seems that we must kill this fellow before we can save Lan Xiang." Ye Xiao's eyes flickered with a sharp light as he said to Shu Xiang.

At the same time, he looked in a certain direction stealthily. He could feel the aura of Immortal Source in that direction.

The direction he looked in actually had the cave wall and nothing else. But Ye Xiao knew there must be another secret path from that wall that will lead him to the Immortal Source.

"Yeah." Shu Xiang nodded at Ye Xiao. The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, surrounded the giant centipede.

If Ye Xiao wanted, he could have taken care of a giant centipede with his Soul Destruction ability. But he didn't want to reveal too much in front of Shu Xiang.

"Roar!!"

The giant centipede let out a roar. Its body was covered with a thick layer of black gas, and it released a pungent smell. It crazily swept its tail towards Ye Xiao and Shu Xiang!

Ye Xiao and Shu Xiang dodged immediately. They knew that ordinary attacks would not be able to hurt the giant centipede, so they waited for an opportunity.

The attack of the giant centipede was incomparably violent. Every strike was earth-shattering. The entire cave kept trembling, and from time to time, rocks would lose and fall to the ground.

Soon, the time more than five minutes passed. Due to the giant centipede losing an eye, its vision was greatly affected, and its attack was not as accurate as before.

Ye Xiao and Shu Xiang both possessed extremely powerful movement skills. Therefore, although the attack of the giant centipede was extremely powerful, it was very difficult to injure Ye Xiao and Shu Xiang.

Gradually, perhaps because of the huge consumption of energy, the movement of the giant centipede began to slow down, and it could not keep up with the rhythm.

"You stay in front of it and attract its attention. I'll go for its other eye. This way, we'll be able to find a chance to kill it." Ye Xiao's eyes lit up when he saw the giant centipede slow down. He said to Shu Xiang.

"Okay."

Shu Xiang nodded and waved the cyan sword in her hand. She took the initiative to attack the giant centipede, attracting its attention.

Very quickly, the giant centipede's attention was shifted to Shu Xiang. It was at this moment Ye Xiao attacked. An energy spear was thrust out and the terrifying spear light arrived in an instant.

The energy spear pierced into the other eye of the giant centipede. Dark green blood splashed onto Ye Xiao's body once again. It had actually corroded Ye Xiao's clothes in an instant but was unable to harm his skin in the slightest.

Clearly, it possessed an extremely strong poison, however, because of Ye Xiao's poison immunity, the poison didn't work on him.

"It turned out that even my poison immunity is working here." Ye Xiao muttered in his heart silently.

"Roar!"

When the giant centipede's eyes were blinded, the giant centipede became even more violent. Its huge body continued to struggle, and it rampaged through the small space in the cave's core area. It smashed into the surrounding walls, causing a deafening sound to ring out.

"Let's take this opportunity to kill it!"

Immediately after saying that, Ye Xiao's body moved first.

Shu Xiang also followed him. The two of them rose into the air and attacked the giant centipede from two different directions.
