Chapter 259: Unexpected Windfall!

Chapter 259: Unexpected Windfall!

In high spirits after their brief exchange, Pang Jian continued sending waves of life energy to Yu Xin and the Giant Abyssal Serpent and only stopped at Yu Xin's signal.

Yu Xin closed her eyes and spent several hours silently recovering in this way.

Whoosh!

A colossal black bat appeared on the distant black sea and flew toward Yu Xin and the Giant Abyssal Serpent with several Bat-Winged Race warriors perched on its wings.

The slightly fatigued Pang Jian perked up at the sight of the black bat.

As expected, it's one of the Outer Gods that vanished after leaving Spirit Offering.

The warriors from the Bat-Winged Race on the bat-like Outer God's wings had the heads of humans and the bodies of bats.

Standing up, they pointed at the Giant Abyssal Serpent and shouted, "Capture that Giant Abyssal Serpent and offer it as a vessel for our god!"

Despite them speaking in a different language, Pang Jian found he could understand every word. He quickly realized it was because the Giant Abyssal Serpent understood their language.

Are you the source of this mess? Pang Jian wondered, surprised the Outer God was after the Giant Abyssal Serpent.

"Kill!"

"Kill the Celestial Maiden!"

The short Bat-Winged Race warriors screeched as they flew off the Outer God's wings.

Pang Jian watched the bat-like Outer God closely and noticed it was seriously injured.

Deep gashes riddled its enormous wings, revealing dark brown stone beneath the shredded flesh.

The black bat was evidently not a true living creature but a stone statue brought to life. In its battle with Yu Xin, it had failed to secure a decisive victory and was severely wounded.

Yu Xin flapped her wings to hover above the black sea.

"You will all die here, and the Bat-Winged Race will be wiped out," she declared, eyes filled with killing intent as she gently grasped the black iron rod.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Yu Xin's wings churned the inky waters into towering waves that transformed into bizarre sea creatures and charged forward as her vassals.

Her white robes, embroidered with patterns of flowers, birds, insects, and fish, lit up with dazzling light.

Four different mystical energies flowed from the designs on Yu Xin's robes into her body as she swung the black iron rod toward the approaching Bat-Winged Race warriors and the Outer God.

Howl!

A thousand-zhang-tall black giant ape clad in chainmail appeared above the black sea while the black iron rod expanded a thousandfold.

The giant ape firmly grasped the black iron rod and swung the massive weapon, smashing it down onto the Bat-Winged Race warriors.

Its ferocious aura and the crashing waves from the black sea unleashed an overwhelming force that reduced the incoming warriors to a rain of blood.

The giant ape dominated the sky, wielding the black iron rod like a scaled-down Heaven Ascension Tribulation Pillar. It struck the bat-like Outer God with a thunderous crash.

Crack!

The massive black bat was crushed into tiny stone fragments, blowing like dust into the black sea.

"No way. You are not my type."

Pang Jian vigorously shook his head, turned around, and hurried back to his room, slamming the door behind him.

The silver-haired girl was left standing alone in the pavilion. The grapes in her mouth now seemed tasteless. Although initially embarrassed, she gradually felt her anger building at Pang Jian's reaction.

Zhao Yuanqi ground her teeth. "I'm not your type?"

The good impression Pang Jian had left on her in the Primordial Wilderness instantly vanished.

Meanwhile, Zhou Qingchen had been staying in Jiang Li's room, teasing her until her face flushed red with embarrassment.

Hearing voices in the courtyard, the pair had quietly leaned toward the window to peek through the gaps and eavesdrop.

"Senior Sister Jiang, what just happened?" asked Zhou Qingchen. "I didn't catch everything they said."

Jiang Li, struggling to restrain Zhou Qingchen's rough hands and breathing heavily, replied, "Junior Sister Zhao was self-conscious as a child. Even though she's now the chosen of the Red Mountain Sect, she still hides behind a cold exterior. She's really just a little girl at heart. Don't let Pang Jian bully her."

"She's already at the late stage of the Profound Abode Realm. Who could bully her?" Zhou Qingchen chuckled softly, then patted his forehead. "But come to think of it, Pang Jian might just be capable of it!"

Two days later, Pang Jian once again received a message from the Giant Abyssal Serpent. The first thing he saw after establishing a connection was a mountain of spirit jades!

Piles of spirit jades were stacked on a remote island in the black sea.

Flying above them was a majestic man with eight pairs of wings, wielding the black iron rod Pang Jian had sent over and destroying the Bat-Winged Races' islands one after the other.

Shadows of the black iron rod multiplied in the sky, with the fierce black giant ape occasionally appearing within.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The islands sunk into the depths of the sea.

That's my brother, my blood brother, Yu Xin said, gently pressing her slender finger against the Giant Abyssal Serpent's forehead.

She had fully recovered since the last time Pang Jian had seen her.

Gesturing to the pile of spirit jades, she said, All the spirit jades we obtained from the Primordial Wilderness in the Third World are all here. The key contributor was a woman named Lady Hua.

Her spatial bracelet alone held three hundred thousand spirit jades. The rest add up to about a hundred and fifty-seven thousand spirit jades.

I didn't bother gathering spirit stones since you didn't ask for spirit stones.

You saved both my life and Xiao Hei's. Not to mention, that miraculous rod is priceless. But this is all I could gather for you.

Guilt flashed across Yu Xin's beautiful face.

Pang Jian stared at the mountain of spirit jades and simply said, That'll do for now. I wish you the best of luck in the Fourth Continent.

Thank you for your kind wishes!

An hour later, a dazzling rain of spirit jades cascaded onto the spirit vein in the Resolute Expanse.

The once-thin spirit vein swelled with vitality, significantly boosting the fragmented land's ability to absorb the surrounding spiritual qi.

The black turtle in the depths of the Resolute Expanse stretched its body comfortably and sent Pang Jian a message.

It was preparing to hunt an Outer God.
