The woman had bright eyes, white teeth, and a slender neck. She looked like a lotus out of the water. She stood on the cliff, and if she took another step, she would fall into the endless abyss. Her white clothes fluttered in the wind, making her look like an otherworldly fairy who would ride the wind.
Ye Fan could not find a single flaw on her. The woman was so beautiful that she did not look like a real person at all. She gave off a dreamy feeling. She had the wisdom of heaven and earth, transcending the vulgarity of the mortal world. Her skin was like ice, and her bones were like jade. She was almost perfect.
Among all the women he had seen, only one could compare to her in terms of appearance. That was the perfect woman he met in front of the tomb of the Monster King.
"How can there be such a beautiful woman in such a dangerous place?" Ye Fan was alarmed and took a few steps back. He had the Sacred Body of the Ancients, and his body had aged. However, the woman in front of him did not change at all. She was not affected by the Forbidden Ancient Place at all. It was hard to imagine where she came from.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and pick the medicine!" Jiang Hanzhong shouted from below. The three people below could see Ye Fan at the edge of the mountain, but they could not see the woman who was close to the cliff.
On the cliff, a demonic aura was surging. The woman, who looked like she had walked out of a painting, walked gracefully toward Ye Fan.
"Oh no!" Ye Fan felt his body aging a little faster. A mysterious aura hit him in the face, and he quickly retreated down the mountain.
The woman was not simple. To be exact, she was terrifying. She had the unique power of the Ancient Abyss, which made it difficult for Ye Fan to bear. If it were not for the Golden Sea of Bitterness that had not dried up, he would have died of old age and turned into ashes.
"She can't be the legendary 'Desolation', right?!" Ye Fan was shocked. He had long heard that there was an unknown thing under the Ancient Abyss. He did not know whether it was a creature or some kind of power, but it was called "Desolation."
Thinking of this, Ye Fan quickly retreated down the mountain. He wanted to leave this peerless beauty for Jiang Hanzhong and the others to deal with.
"Why did you come back?" Jiang Hanzhong shouted.
"Not good, why is there another girl?" Ji Yunfeng's expression abruptly changed. He saw the white-clothed woman first, and he immediately felt his life flow away a little faster.
"That is …" Xu Daoling, the Elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land, seemed to have found something incredible. He showed an extremely shocked expression and took a few steps back. His face was extremely pale and full of fear.
Seeing him like this, Jiang Hanzhong and Ji Yunfeng were shocked. They quickly retreated with him and asked, "What's wrong? What's the background of that woman?"
"It's unbelievable, too unbelievable!" Xu Daoling, the elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land, said with a pale face, "I've seen her portrait before."
Ji Yunfeng whispered, "Is her portrait very special? I've never seen such a beautiful woman before. "
"That portrait is an antique from six thousand years ago!"
When Jiang Hanzhong and Ji Yunfeng heard this, they immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. A person from six thousand years ago … was really shocking. Even in their powerful clans, there didn't seem to be anyone who had lived for so long.
"She's not a living person!" Xu Daoling said with a pale face.
"What?!" Ji Yunfeng and Jiang Hanzhong's expressions changed as they instantly thought of something.
"Six thousand years ago, she was known as the First Saintess of the Eastern Barren Territory. She was flawless and flawless. In ancient history, several famous figures in the Eastern Barren Territory used to follow her."
When Xu Daoling said this, Ji Yunfeng and Jiang Hanzhong gradually guessed the identity of the woman on the mountain peak. They said at the same time in a trembling voice, "Six thousand years ago, that extremely prosperous celestial sect was destroyed here. Which sect was she from?"
"Yes, she was the Heavenly Jade Saintess from six thousand years ago!" When Xu Daoling said this, he felt a headache coming on. He had never thought that he would meet a figure from ancient history.
In the past, the holy land that was destroyed here was called Heavenly Jade. Just like the Yaoguang Holy Land, it was named after one of the seven stars of the Big Dipper.
"In our Yaoguang Holy Land, an important figure once felt sad for her. He left her portrait in our ancient vault."
Ye Fan's Divine Spring of Life hadn't dried up yet, so his spiritual senses were still sharp. He heard their words clearly and was extremely shocked. This perfect woman was the former First Saintess of the Eastern Barren Territory. She came from that destroyed celestial sect and was from the same sect as Crazy 'Ole.
Crazy 'Ole was in a daze. He had once gazed at the Forbidden Ancient Barren Territory for an entire night. If he saw the undying body of the Saintess, who knew what he would think?
"She died six thousand years ago. Now that she has appeared again, there is only one possibility. She might have become a Desolate Slave," Jiang Hanzhong said.
In the distant past, several peerless figures entered the Forbidden Ancient Barren Territory in their later years and ventured into the endless abyss alone. In the end, they all became Desolate Slaves.
"Only peerless figures can become Desolate Slaves. Although she died six thousand years ago, I'm afraid she is still very terrifying." Ji Yunfeng said in a low voice, "What should we do? Are we going to retreat? I feel that the flame of life will be extinguished at any moment. She has an extremely dense Desolate aura."
"I'm afraid we can't leave anymore!" Xu Daoling broke out in a cold sweat.
That peerless beauty was like a ghost. She floated down silently, passing by Ye Fan and flying towards the three of them.
Ye Fan groaned inwardly. He felt that they might die here. Now that he thought about it, the first time he appeared on the Holy Mountain, it could be said that everything had been smooth sailing. There had been no danger, and he had easily picked the Holy Herb.
"I understand now. Everything happened because the nine dragon corpses and the ancient bronze coffin fell from the sky. They intimidated the Desolate Slaves in the endless abyss, so they did not dare to appear."
"Let's do it!" At this moment, Jiang Hanzhong made his move. He held the brocade box in his hand, and his body shone brightly. A purple bronze mirror rushed out of his body. The back of the mirror was engraved with the Eight Trigrams, and the front of the mirror was like a full moon, shining with dazzling light. A huge beam of light as thick as a house shot towards the Heavenly Jade Saintess.
The entire peak of the Holy Mountain shook. The beam of light was like the Milky Way falling from the Nine Heavens. It made people feel endless pressure.
Ye Fan was shocked. Jiang Hanzhong's power was as deep as the sea, and he could not see the end. It was something that a Life Spring Realm cultivator like him could not imagine. If such a terrifying beam of light hit him, he would instantly turn into ashes.
"This should be beyond the Nirvana Realm …" He knew that the human body had other secret realms besides the Sea of Reincarnation.
"Chi!"
Something shocking happened. The beam of light that could make the sun, moon, and stars lose their color turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared in front of the Heavenly Jade Saintess. It did not hurt her at all.
"Clang!"
A metallic sound was heard. The Eight Trigrams Mirror fell to the ground. Jiang Hanzhong's face was pale, and he was on the verge of collapsing. His divine power source had dried up again.
"Hua!"
Ji Yunfeng made his move. He held the strange black stone in his hand, and a Tianluo Umbrella rushed out of his body. It covered the sky and the sun, and surged toward the saintess. The astral wind blew, and the sun and moon lost their light.
"Bang!"
The saintess gently pointed her finger, and the huge umbrella in the sky was pierced on the spot. Its brilliance dimmed, and it fell to the ground. Ji Yunfeng's face was pale without a trace of blood. His aged body was hunched over as he staggered backward and sat on the ground.
"Brother Xu, quickly use your forbidden weapon. Isn't it sealed with the divine power of the Supreme Elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land? It can be used twice, so it should be enough to fight against her," Ji Yunfeng urged anxiously.
A palm-sized green leaf appeared in Xu Daoling's hand. It looked like a green jade, and it shone with a sparkling luster. It was densely covered with Dao patterns. He held it with both hands, and suddenly, there was endless dazzling divine light that turned into a sky full of green light. In an instant, the entire mountain peak was submerged, including the saintess.
This terrifying energy was incomparably vast. It was as if the stars in the sky had turned into green light and fell down, causing the heaven and earth to tremble. This lasted for a full fifteen minutes before the green light gradually dissipated.
Not far away, Ye Fan gasped!
The saintess did not move a single step. She quietly stood in front of them, and even her white dress did not flutter. She was so terrifying that it was almost demonic.
The three Elders were deathly pale as they exchanged a glance. Then, without prior agreement, they gripped their forbidden items and attacked at the same time, unleashing their most powerful divine abilities. Boundless light filled the air, and divine power flooded the area, completely submerging the Heavenly Jade Holy Maiden.
However, after the divine abilities were used and the brilliance faded, the saintess was still standing there unscathed. She was not affected in the slightest.
"Crack!"
The forbidden weapons in Ji Yunfeng's and Xu Daoling's hands were almost broken and could no longer be used. Their faces were gray, and wrinkles piled up. They had aged dozens of years in an instant, and their vitality had almost dried up.
Jiang Hanzhong was also extremely old. The brocade box in his hand had nine cracks. At this moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "I can only use this."
The brocade box shattered, and an ancient pagoda appeared in his hand. It was only the size of a palm, and it looked dull and ordinary. However, in just a moment, a terrifying aura shook the area. It was many times more violent than all the energy fluctuations from before.
It was like a world of its own, not a small pagoda. It seemed to be able to contain everything, including the mountains and rivers.
"This is …" Xu Daoling's murky eyes flickered with a strange light. He said in a trembling voice, "I heard that the Jiang Clan has been trying to replicate the Eastern Wasteland's treasure — the Ancient Desolate Tower. Did you succeed?"
"How could we succeed? The Ancient Desolate Tower is unique. It coexists with the world and cannot be replicated. This is just one of the few defective replicas." Jiang Hanzhong did not do anything. The replica of the Ancient Desolate Tower soared into the sky on its own. It quickly enlarged and pressed down on the Heavenly Jade Holy Girl.
"This …" Ji Yunfeng inhaled sharply and said, "Even a replica is so horrifying. It was not sealed in the Ancient Desolate Forbidden Land. The true Ancient Desolate Tower is unimaginable."
Jiang Hanzhong shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, it only has one attack. Hopefully, it can suppress her temporarily and buy us some time."
The replica of the Ancient Desolate Tower pressed down in the blink of an eye. The world trembled. The body of the tower was simple and natural, and the Dao flowed around it, condensing the "power of the world."
The Heavenly Jade Holy Girl quickly retreated, not daring to face it head-on. However, the ancient tower followed her like a shadow and suppressed her!
"Rumble …!" There was a loud sound, and the sacred mountain trembled. The replica of the Ancient Desolate Tower quickly shrank to the size of a palm and fell to the ground.
"Good!" Xu Daoling shouted, "The Ancient Desolate Tower truly lives up to its reputation. Even a replica of the Ancient Desolate Tower has such a horrifying might. In the forbidden land, it can suppress its enemies without being restricted."
Ye Fan's heart trembled. The accumulations of these Ancient Desolate Noble Clans were too deep. They even managed to create a replica of the Ancient Desolate Tower, suppressing a horrifying Desolate Slave like the Heavenly Jade Holy Girl. This shocked him greatly.
"Quick, let's leave this place quickly. The Ancient Desolate Tower can only hold her for one attack. It can only suppress her for a moment. Soon, it will collapse on its own," Jiang Hanzhong shouted anxiously.
"It really is … a replica." Ji Yunfeng felt like cold water had been poured on him.
"What are you standing there for? Quickly go and pick the divine herb. After that, come down the mountain and meet up with us," Xu Daoling shouted at Ye Fan.
"Damn it! Do you really think you can control me?"
"You …" The three elders' expressions changed. They had not expected the puppet imprint to be ineffective.
"Boom!"
Just at this moment, the replica Ancient Desolate Tower suddenly collapsed. The Heavenly Jade Holy Girl appeared dispirited and listless.
"It's over!" Jiang Hanzhong smiled bitterly.
In that instant, his body withered and turned to dust. Following that, Ji Yunfeng and Xu Daoling turned to dust as well. It was like they had experienced tens of thousands of years.
At the same time, at the foot of the holy mountain, the old knights and the weak Savage Beasts all withered and turned into white bones.
Ye Fan's mind trembled. His body aged rapidly. The golden sea of bitterness surged into the sky. The divine spring gurgled, releasing a steady stream of lifeforce, preventing him from dying.
"Is the Ancient Desolate Forbidden Land going to be my burial ground?" Ye Fan felt extremely weak. He quickly rushed up the holy mountain. Right now, only the Sage herb and the divine spring could save him.
Just as he rushed up the mountain peak, he found the Heavenly Jade Holy Girl blocking his way. Her white clothes fluttered, and her eyes were like water. She looked ethereal and intelligent, as if she was alive.
"So the Ancient Desolate Forbidden Land is this terrifying. We were just lucky to survive the last time …" Ye Fan wanted to take out his "cauldron," but he found that he did not have enough Divine Power. In the end, he gritted his teeth and took out the golden book. With a flash of golden light, it slashed at the Heavenly Jade Holy Girl.
"Clang!"
The Heavenly Jade Holy Girl gently flicked her finger, and the golden book immediately fell to the ground. She was deeply attracted by the golden paper, and she grabbed it.
Then, the Heavenly Jade Holy Girl silently approached Ye Fan, exuding a cold aura. She stretched out a slender hand and reached for Ye Fan's sea of bitterness.
"You …" Ye Fan retreated, but he couldn't dodge at all. That jade-like, flawless hand entered his body in an instant.
Ye Fan rapidly aged, and in the blink of an eye, he was all skin and bones. He was almost a skeleton. But at that moment, the Heavenly Jade Holy Girl let out an extremely painful scream. The green copper piece in Ye Fan's sea of bitterness trembled slightly, and she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. The golden book fell to the ground, and she was sent flying, falling into the depths of the Ancient Desolate Abyss.
"The replica of the Ancient Desolate Tower cannot suppress you, but my green copper piece is comparable to the real Ancient Desolate Tower. If you want to touch it …" Ye Fan smiled bitterly. His life force was almost exhausted, and his body was shriveled. His wounds were not bleeding, and he was about to die. But he persisted, and he staggered forward.
In a trance, he smelled a fragrance that refreshed the heart and refreshed the mind. There were a few strange small trees growing in front of him. He seemed to see a bubbling spring, and then he fell into it with a plop.
