Chapter 283: Life After the Hijacking
This is …… where ……
Am I still …… not dead?
Yun Che’s eyes, with difficulty, opened a thin slit. It was a dreary, rotten-smelling space, and the darkness was permeated by wisps of light spilling in from nowhere, allowing him to see his surroundings vaguely. His whole body was heavy and in severe pain, especially his back, which hurt to the bone.
And this sharp pain made him in a daze of surprise. Because the part that could still feel the pain at least proved that it wasn’t ruined there.
“You’re finally awake.”
Jasmine’s voice came as if she was relieved, and even though Yun Che had only just escaped death, Jasmine’s resentment still erupted straight away, “Have you ever counted how many times you’ve ‘died’ in these less than two years! You always acted recklessly, completely disregarding your life for your own purposes, and every time, I had to spend a huge amount of money to keep you alive! I thought that after I sealed my own power and left you without a sense of dependence, you would be careful in everything, but I didn’t expect that, when others didn’t go to injure you, you sent yourself up to die! If you didn’t have the protection of the Great Dao Faust Technique and the quenching of the Dragon God’s blood, you would have already died through and through!”
“Do you know how to cherish your life or not! I recast your Xuan Vein, granted you the Divine Skill, saved your life time and time again by bearing the consequences of the poisonous eruption, and pinned all my hopes on you! This is how you treat your life, this is how you repay me!?”
The more Jasmine said, the more angry she became, all the worries, fears and grievances of the past few days all surged up due to Yun Che’s awakening, and straight away she cursed him to death, Yun Che, who had managed to climb back from the death line with great difficulty, didn’t dare to squeak for half a day, and only waited for her to get tired of cursing her, and only then did she weakly say: ”Jasmine, it’s my fault, I know that I shouldn’t have acted impulsively, but when I saw that something had happened to Yuanba, I couldn’t help myself at all! …… Hiss! Good pain …… Hue …… If, in the beginning, the person who is going to be in trouble is you, even if I know that I will die …… I will likewise… …do that.”
“Hmph!” Jasmine coldly disdainful voice: “Half dead, actually still do not forget to show your coaxing girls flowery language! No more talking, hold your breath right now, don’t move any Xuan Li, and fully mobilize the Dragon God’s blood and run the Great Dao Faustus Technique to repair your injuries! This demon knows that you are not dead, but these days did not kill you, seems to be bored to see if you can wake up. If he knows that you’ve woken up, there’s a high probability that he’ll make a move to kill you …… So, before he realizes that you’ve woken up, you have to suppress the injuries on your back and build up the strength to be able to perform the Star God Shattering Shadow once!”
Jasmine’s words were understood by Yun Che as soon as he heard them, he suppressed his breathing, his gaze moved slightly as he looked towards the boundary at the edge of the Heavenly Mighty Soul Suppressing Formation, as long as he could cast the Star God Shattering Shadow once, and instantly detach himself from outside the boundary, then, it would be impossible for this demonic person to kill him even if he wanted to.
Just a slight movement of Xuan Li would most likely aggravate the serious trauma on his body, and would also directly startle the demonic person. Whereas the Great Dao Faust Technique was activated with intent and would not have any breath, the mobilization of the Dragon God’s Blood was even more unnecessary.
Yun Che closed his eyes again, his entire body did not move at all, his breathing was even suppressed to the extreme, and although his body was in incomparably severe pain, such pain was not enough to cause him to make any sound.
His initial injuries were indeed extremely heavy, and even with the protection of the Great Dao Faust Technique and the Dragon God’s Blood, he was still just a hair’s breadth away from death. Five days of unconsciousness, if it were a normal person, his injuries would definitely deteriorate rapidly, not to mention five days, he would definitely die in less than five hours, but with the Great Dao Faustian Skill from the Desolate God, during these five days, instead of intensifying, Yun Che’s injuries were slowly recovering. The presence of the Dragon God’s blood also accelerated the speed of recovery to a great extent.
Yun Che’s injuries at this time were no longer near-death injuries, but rather serious injury level. Even his smashed and broken spine was reconnected during the five days of quiet repair.
Yun Che woke up, and with the urging of his intention, the operation of the Great Dao Faustus Skill naturally became even more rapid, and also silently, allowing his internal and external injuries to recover at an even faster rate.
Since I picked up another life and came back …… then …… I have to put my best foot forward to live well …… absolutely cannot die!
Time slowly passed in silence. Other than the sound of his own heartbeat, Yun Che couldn’t hear any sound. There was never any movement about the demonic man from behind, as if he was the only one in this dark space, but he could still vaguely feel the demonic man’s frightening eyes sweeping over his body from time to time under his extreme weakness.
Finally, a hoarse voice rang out, ”What a strange fellow, suffering such injuries and still not dead after five whole days! I’d like to see if he can wake up in the end …… But even if he can wake up, it’s impossible for him to live!”
The demonic man’s self-talk proved that he hadn’t realized that he had woken up yet. Yun Che’s mind slightly relaxed, readjusted his breathing, focused his mind, and rapidly operated the Great Dao Faustus Technique under the strong intention to survive.
One day ……
Two days ……
On the third day, the injuries on Yun Che’s body were still severe, but they had been repaired to a level where a slight movement of Xuan Power would not cause them to crumble, and his body was no longer so heavy, and in his Xuan Veins, enough Xuan Power had been gathered, so he opened his eyes, and seeing the layer of yellow light glittering boundary, his hands quietly clenched tightly.
“The time is almost right! Charge over!”
Jasmine’s words had just fallen, Yun Che had already sucked in a sharp breath, and the Star God Shattering Shadow was instantly activated, and after lying on his back for eight days, like a corpse, he suddenly rushed forward like a bolt of lightning, and with a “giggling” sound, he pierced through the boundary, and fell heavily outside of it, and then tumbled a long way under the force of inertia, before he finally came to a stop, and he fell on his back on the ground, sometimes panting, sometimes being pained by the pain, and sometimes gasping for breath. He lay on the ground, sometimes gasping for breath, sometimes grimacing from the pain.
Today’s Yun Che was truly reborn after the calamity, before, even though he had woken up, he had always been under the shadow of the demonic man, and as long as the demonic man moved his mind a little bit and laid his hands on him, he would definitely die. And now, not only is his injury better, but he is also completely out of the demon’s control.
The demonic man raised his head violently, a pair of eyes in the darkness flashed with a lurid essence, suddenly, he threw back his head and laughed: “Hahahahaha! I didn’t expect that I would inadvertently bring in such a strange brat to come in, and after being injured so severely, not only did he still not die after eight days, he actually completely hid the healing of his wounds from me, and in the end, he even shaded me! Other than the group of bastards from the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain, you are the first person who can shade me!”
A Star God Shattering Shadow drained Yun Che’s entire body of strength, and he panted heavily for a long while before he said in a low voice, “Demon, I …… won’t die that easily!!!”
“Hmph, you really don’t know the heights of heaven, do you think you can rest easy now?” The demonic man tugged at the chains and roared lowly in a horrible voice, “This place, with the Xing Heavenly Sword suppressing it, can only be opened once every twenty years! What can you do if you regain your consciousness! What can you do even if you’ve recovered from your injuries? There isn’t any food or water here, and with your Xuan Li cultivation, are you so naive as to think that you can survive here for twenty years?”
“No! There’s no need to wait twenty years …… There’s a method that will allow me to get out!” Yun Che stared at the demonic man and gritted his teeth, “That is to kill you! That Criminal Sky Sword is suppressing your body and soul, and as long as you die, the Criminal Sky Sword will automatically lift the suppression! I can then get out from here!”
This, of course, wasn’t something Yun Che saw on his own, but what Jasmine had told him. What trapped the demonic man was certainly not the Chain of Starfall. The Chain of Starfall existed to block his limb movements, and the one that held him there was the Interdictor Sword!
The demonic man froze, then laughed once again, “Hahahahaha! What a funny kid, you are absolutely right, as long as you can kill me, you will be able to get out from here. It’s just a pity that there’s no way you can live until the day you kill me.”
“I will definitely …… kill you!” Yun Che gritted his teeth and said sinisterly, his eyes filled with hatred as he looked at the demonic man. This demonic person had gone crazy under the stimulation of Ling Kun, almost killing Xia Yuanba and making him almost fall into purgatory, and now, although he didn’t die, he was also confined here, and his life and death were not up to him, and all of this was caused by this demonic person, and he simply hated it to the bone!
He could envision that everyone outside must have thought he was dead. The consequence, is the pain of the relatives, the enemy is quick! Again, it was thanks to this demonic person!
“Then I’d like to see how you’re going to kill me!” The demonic man laughed maniacally, and underneath his gray hair, his dry face actually revealed a kind of hideous excitement. There was only the darkness of the dryness, and the horror of that loneliness was tantamount to purgatory. Here, to Yun Che, it was a descent into the abyss, while to the demonic man, having one more person here was simply like heaven in hell. Right now, if he could reach out and touch Yun Che, he wouldn’t even necessarily be willing to kill him.
“You look like you hate me …… right! How can you not hate me! Then you can hate to your heart’s content. Let me see if your hate can kill me, let me see how long you can live here! Hahahahaha ……”
The demonic man’s excited laughter was slightly tinged with madness, and in this dark underground space, his voice seemed extremely eerie. Yun Che no longer spoke to him, gritting his teeth, he slowly sat up from the ground, his injuries were mainly centered on his back, and every time he moved, an unbearable sharp pain would come. By the time he sat up fully cross-legged, his forehead was already covered in cold sweat. He closed his eyes and placed his hands on his knees, and it didn’t take long for his mind to return to one, his face and breathing becoming calm.
His mind sank into the Heavenly Poison Pearl, and as soon as he entered, he saw Jasmine’s eyes with a deep murderous aura, he quickly smiled for a moment, and then after making a whole bunch of various promises, he began to find out dozens of medicinal herbs as fast as he could, and in the end, with a clench of his teeth, he took out that piece of Purple Vein Heavenly Crystals which was handed over to him by Xia Qingyue.
The Purple Vein Heavenly Crystal could grant extremely strong regenerative abilities to traumatized areas, including skin, flesh, bones, and even internal organs. Drawing on the power within it could also directly raise one’s Xuan Force cultivation, thus its preciousness could not be measured in terms of money. If Yun Che wanted to recover his injuries at the fastest speed, he had to utilize the Purple Vein Heavenly Crystal.
Under the Heavenly Poison Bead’s quenching, in less than half an hour, all of the injury medicines that Yun Che needed were blended……. Before his thoughts left the Heavenly Poison Bead, he thought of something and quickly checked in the Heavenly Poison Bead, and then his heart instantly sank to the bottom.
The food and drinking water …… originally stored in the Heavenly Poison Pearl were all gone! Not even half of it was left behind!
It was transferred to the purple spatial ring that he had left for Su Ling’er who was far away in the Cang Yun Continent!
There are 99 more to go!
