"I swear, I will protect … this thing like I protect my own life. Before I have enough power, I will never show it to anyone. If I feel that my life is coming to an end, I will find the right person and let him pass this thing to the next destined one."
When Ye Kong finished speaking, he suddenly found that Uncle Ji's body began to dim as if it was about to disappear like a phantom.
"Uncle Ji, what are you doing?" Ye Kong asked in surprise.
Uncle Ji said with a smile, "I am an immortal cultivator from the Mortal World. I don't have an eternal life like immortals, nor do I have a long life like demonic beasts. Many people think that I can live for so many years because I ate the Peach of Immortality in the Immortal World, but that is not the case. I can live for so long because of this unknown little thing. Now, it is time for me to pass away while sitting cross-legged. "
Ye Kong didn't expect that Uncle Ji would pass away while sitting cross-legged after taking out this thing. He hurriedly said, "No, I don't want it. Take it back. This thing is useless to me, but it is useful to you. This is the first time I have met you, and I still have many questions to answer. How can you pass away like this? "
"Some things can only be solved by oneself." Uncle Ji smiled and took the particle from Ye Kong's hand. With a wave of his hand, he hit the particle into Ye Kong's forehead and said, "After so many years, my body and Primordial Spirit have long been exhausted. Even if I still carry this thing, I won't live for long. So, don't be sad. In fact, I have lived for so many years, and I am very happy. I am happy that I have finally completed the mission given to me by Master before I pass away … Child, I wish you good luck. "
When Uncle Ji finished speaking, his body collapsed like a lump of sand. After a puff of green smoke, his figure disappeared, leaving only ashes on the ground.
"How can this be?" Ye Kong was stunned as he looked at the scene in front of him. After being stunned for a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Uncle Ji, I must also erect a statue for you and record your deeds. Standing in this hall, you will forever be revered by others.
Then, Ye Kong dug a hole in an empty space in the backyard of the main hall. Then, he used his hands to scoop all of Uncle Ji's ashes into the pit, covered it with soil, erected a tombstone, and kowtowed three times. Then, he found a transmission array and teleported out of the Five Elements Immortal Mansion.
The area outside the immortal mansion was bustling with activity. Many cultivators were busy looking for Planetary Boats to take home. Some of them seemed to be in high spirits, as they had clearly come across some treasures. There were also some who had dejected looks on their faces. It seemed like they had obtained nothing. There were even quite a few who gathered together, unwilling to leave, lamenting their bad luck.
Beneath the high walls of the immortal palace, in a corner, a small Star Boat was quietly anchored. In front of the Star Boat was a beautiful woman from the Shadow Clan. Behind her stood several cultivators. They were Ye Kong's teammates.
Hao Yilong couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. "I've heard you say that following Ye Kong will definitely yield something. But I still didn't follow him at the last moment. Alas, it's too late for regrets." In fact, when Ye Kong flew down the stairway, he also had an impulse … but in the end, he chose to continue climbing the stairway and missed the opportunity to enter the core of the immortal palace.
Pan Dong smiled. "You're already pretty good. You even saw the Prometheus Stairway. I'm the most pitiful because I voluntarily gave up."
Li Jiankuang smiled and said, "You don't have to say that. I left earlier than you guys."
The lean middle-aged man was Wu Ganhui of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect. He smiled. "It's actually nothing much. We passed the second test and only obtained an ancient treasure and the return fee."
Liu Shanshan, who was beside him, sneered. "An ancient treasure is not good? You're mocking us, aren't you? "
Wu Ganhui laughed and said, "How can that be? What you guys got is pretty good too. So many people have seen the Yin River Fire. This kind of Heavenly Flame is not something our world can have. You guys are even more profitable than me!"
Wang Xin, who had been silent, also chuckled. When he was swept into the Yin River of the Netherworld, he thought he was dead. He didn't expect to be teleported out of the immortal palace and catch the Yin River Fire. He was very satisfied with this trip.
Hearing Wu Ganhui say that, Liu Shanshan was a little unhappy. "We risked our lives to get it. If we die, won't we still die?"
Wu Ganhui said, "What are you saying? Do you think our ancient treasure is easy to get? Aren't we risking our lives to deal with the Ghost Emperor, who is above the Soul Formation stage? "
Seeing that the two were about to argue, Wang Xin quickly said, "None of them are simple. Don't be jealous of others. Who can make the right choice when it comes to life and death?"
Hearing what Wang Xin said, Wu Ganhui felt a little better and didn't say anything more.
Liu Shanshan was a woman after all, so she was still a little upset. She sneered, "We're all in the same team. You've already taken a hundred thousand Spirit Stones as a travel fee, and you still want to ride our flying boat?"
Wu Ganhui replied, "Don't worry, I won't ride your Flying Ark. I'm here to wait for Friend Ye. I happen to have a job to hunt for treasures and I want to cooperate with Friend Ye."
Hearing that Wu Ganhui had a job to hunt for treasures, Hao Yilong and Pan Dong, who didn't get anything, were interested. They asked, "What is it? Why don't you tell us? We have nothing to do. "
Pan Dong said, "Senior Wu, it's popular to bring a cultivator from the Law Word Demon Sect with you when you go treasure hunting. You can predict where we are going with the Law Word, just in case. Plus, I have a blood contract … "
Hao Yilong also said, "Yeah, look at me, I'm not weak. Let me tell you, we even killed the Divine Lord of the Sanguine Monarch."
Facing these two bragging guys, Wu Ganhui smiled. "I need to find someone above the Soul Formation stage. Can you do it?"
Hearing that, Hao Yilong and Pan Dong were speechless. "Humph, how can there be so many above the Soul Formation stage?"
Wu Ganhui wasn't the only one who stayed. There were also people from the Iron Painting Realm waiting here. Two people from the Iron Arm Demon Sect had died in the Iron Painting's team, so there were only four people left.
Little Yingying said, "I'm so worried. Why hasn't Ye Kong come out yet?"
Lin Xitian, who had a big belly, joked, "Little Yingying, what do you think? You've taken a fancy to Friend Ye? But I advise you to give up on this distraction. Friend Ye likes people like Sect Head Huang … "As Lin Xitian spoke, he gestured with his hand in front of his chest, indicating the size of Huang Shishi's breasts.
Little Yingying was straightforward and retorted, "They all have their own characteristics. You're not Ye Kong, how would you know? Besides, so many people saw me being swallowed by the Ghost Emperor. That's why he became anxious. It's obvious that he's interested in me. "
Everyone was stunned. Old Lady Mo said, "You can't do that. Sect Head Huang was taken down by him and all the elders were taken away by him. If you're related to him, then wouldn't our Painting Sound Demon Sect fall into the hands of Friend Ye?"
Lin Xitian's son, Lin Zhenwei, said with an interesting smile, "Don't worry, Elder Mo, the Painting Sound Demon Sect will definitely not fall. There's still you, isn't there?"
Boss Mo was furious, "You damn brat. Back then, wasn't I poor and couldn't afford the Beauty Pill? Lin Xitian, you have to discipline this son of yours. He's so rude. "
Everyone knew that they were joking, so they all laughed out loud.
They laughed happily, but Yi Manying, who was standing in front, turned a deaf ear to them. She continued to look into the distance with a frown. The beauty of the Shadow Clan, even if she was worried, still had a different kind of scenery, causing all the cultivators who passed by to take a few more glances.
There were also cultivators who wanted to come up and strike up a conversation, but someone immediately reminded him, "I heard that woman has a relationship with Ye Kong. You better be careful."
Those cultivators immediately suppressed the impulse in their hearts. A cultivator above the Soul Formation Stage fighting the Ghost Emperor Hachibara alone … How could that be? What kind of existence was that? Wasn't it courting death to go up and strike up a conversation?
There was even a cultivator who walked out and snorted angrily, "Friend Ye gave up the Heaven Stairway to save us. If anyone tries to steal from him, This Old Man will be the first to take their life!"
Unknowingly, Ye Kong's name had already spread among the cultivators. Many low-level cultivators had already secretly decided to treat Ye Kong as their role model for the rest of their lives.
Meanwhile, the Saint Devil Sect in Yunyao had already received the news. The Saint Master gave the order to immediately change the plan. The previous plan of robbing all the cultivators was scrapped. They were going to use all their strength to stop Ye Kong, so that they could completely destroy Ye Kong in the Firmament.
"Don't worry, there's nothing to worry about. The third stage is not dangerous. Friend Ye still hasn't come out, so he must have successfully passed the third stage. Right now, he's receiving the reward from the High Immortal. "Seeing Yi Manying's anxious expression, everyone came up to comfort her.
Yi Manying said, "But it's been too long. You guys have already been out for half a day."
Li Jiankuang laughed and said, "It must be because there are too many treasures that he can't even count them all."
As they were talking, they saw a commotion in the crowd in front of them. Just when everyone was confused, they saw a familiar green robe walking out.
For some reason, when she saw this kid, Yi Manying's eyes actually became a little blurry.
However, a certain someone was heartless. After coming out, he didn't rush over. Instead, he greeted the cultivators that surrounded him one by one. Actually, it wasn't that Ye Kong didn't want to go over. The key was that those cultivators were too enthusiastic.
Some cultivators wanted to express their gratitude for saving their lives. Some cultivators wanted to find out what treasures Ye Kong had obtained. Some cultivators wanted to represent their sects to befriend Ye Kong. After all, cultivators above the Soul Formation stage were very rare in Yunyao. Although the people of Yunyao didn't know what the cultivation after the Soul Formation stage was, they clearly knew that after transforming into a dragon, Ye Kong's cultivation was far beyond the Soul Formation peak stage.
Ye Kong also greeted them politely. It was better to have one more friend than one more enemy. Most of the people present were Divine Lord. There were also many sect masters and elders. Most of the time, it was very difficult to get to know them.
However, when asked what Ye Kong had obtained, Ye Kong could only play dumb. He said that he lost his way and entered a dark room. No one talked to him. After waiting for a long time, he was inexplicably teleported out again.
As for his explanation, 99% of the cultivators didn't believe it. However, this kind of thing was a taboo for cultivators. If they didn't want to say it, no one could force them. Whether it was Cangnan or Yunyao, the cultivators all did a good job of keeping secrets.
After greeting everyone and collecting a lot of films from the major devil sects, Ye Kong then walked towards the people waiting for him.
