Volume 1: Wudao Xiantian Chapter 18: Devouring the Witch Treasure

  Two updates every day, weekly recommendation increases by one thousand and adds an extra chapter, effective this week.

  After a brief rest, Ye Xu immediately got up and walked towards the fragments of Yan Yang Lie Yan's flag.

  The blazing flame flag fragments still floated in mid-air, like a broken sun, and the center of the broken sun was that three-legged strange bird, constantly flapping its wings.

  "Is this Wu Bao?"

  Ye Xuan looked up and down, this thing was not the first time he saw it. In the Wu Bei Ge, he had seen the Gray Eagle Ye Lun's mother-child hundred ghost flag before.

  However, this Flame Flag of Blazing Sun is obviously vastly different from the Child-Mother Hundred Ghosts Banner. The Child-Mother Hundred Ghosts Banner exudes a ghostly aura, and one can tell at a glance that it's an object of the demonic path. In contrast, the Flame Flag of Blazing Sun appears much more majestic, and not even slightly does it seem like a magical artifact of the demonic path.

  Apparently, the fragments of the Flame Emperor's banner are indeed far more brilliant than the Child and Mother Hundred Ghosts' banners!

  On the other side of the Clear Water River, in the midst of a dense forest, a pair of eyes stared intently at the three-legged Golden Crow hovering in mid-air. The eyes gleamed with greed as they whispered to themselves: "A Wu treasure! It's actually a Wu treasure! Although it's just a fragment, the power contained within is terrifyingly immense. If I can get my hands on this Flame Yang banner, I, Ye Li, will no longer be a lowly servant in the Ye Manor! My status will rise infinitely, and I'll have any woman I desire..."

  Hiding in the thicket was Ye Li, who had been following Ye Xu out of the city. However, he discovered that Fang Tang and Fang Li were also tailing Ye Xu. Taking advantage of the situation, he decided to play a trick on them, using the tactic of "praying mantis catching cicada, with yellow sparrow in the rear". Unexpectedly, he stumbled upon this great secret, and his hands and feet began to tremble with excitement.

  "This kid is really lucky, he actually managed to buy a Wu Bao fragment. But this fragment will soon belong to me!"

  A fierce glint flashed in Ye's eyes, and these days Ye Xu had given him too many surprises. First, his injuries had mysteriously healed, and he had spent a few days cultivating the Tianming Body Refining Technique to the third level. Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for a few days, this kid had already cultivated to the fifth level of the realm, and even killed Fang's Sixth Young Master, Fang Tong!

  Fang Zhāng cultivated the Jiǔ Yáng Liè Huǒ Shén Gōng to the sixth level, but unexpectedly still couldn't match the Cāng Míng Liàn Tǐ Jué at the fifth level. If this were told to others, probably no one would believe it!

  Ye Li felt Ye Xu's terror for the first time. This boy, who had once become a waste, had infinite possibilities for growth, while he himself was already old!

  "Kill him, this kid must be killed! If I don't kill this kid, sooner or later I'll die at his hands!"

  The leaves sparkled with a sharp light in his eyes, just about to make a move, but suddenly pressed down again, forcing himself to hold back and not reveal himself.

  Only on the other side of the Clear Water River, that three-legged strange bird suddenly flapped its wings and rushed towards Ye Yu!

  Ye Xue was also shocked, even a single spark could put him to death, if he was pounced on by this three-legged monster bird, he dared to confirm that his fate would be absolutely annihilated!

  He was about to dodge, but suddenly discovered that his body had been tightly locked by a powerful force at some point, and even his fingers couldn't move!

  Wow!

  The three-legged strange bird together with the wheel of the remaining sun, came rushing in a mighty and turbulent manner, and suddenly drilled into his dantian, disappearing without a trace.

  Ye Xul hurriedly and carefully examined his own body, but found that he had not only failed to turn into ashes, but even his clothes were not scorched, and he was stunned.

  He hastily submerged his heart and spirit, his thoughts sinking into the elixir field. There, he saw that three-legged monster bird indeed appear within his elixir field, rushing towards the White Jade Pavilion floating on the celestial true energy with a shrill cry.

  Suddenly, a mysterious and enormous power emerged from the Jade Tower, wrapping up the three-legged monster bird and sucking it into the tower.

  Ye Xue's thoughts hastily entered the Jade Tower, only to see that the source of that mysterious power was actually the young green jade sapling on the small island in the center of the Jade Flower Jade Pool!

  At this moment, that green jade seedling has grown to more than half a foot high, and it is a green and tender sapling, but I don't know what variety it is.

  The small island under the sapling's feet also grew a bit larger.

  In the Jade Hua Yao pool, many dew drops also emerged, gathering into a shallow puddle.

  Ye Xu also noticed that the Jade Building's space had increased significantly, from a square of one zhang to a square of two zhang!

  In the Jade Tower space, the three-legged strange bird seemed to have suddenly discovered its arch-nemesis, letting out a shrill cry as it burst into flames, with golden fire erupting all over its body. It flapped its wings and charged towards the Qing Yu tree sapling, as if wanting to burn it to ashes!

  That sprout of green jade tree seedling moved without wind, suddenly thousands of thin roots burst out from the mud of the small island, dancing in mid-air, swooshing, piercing into the body of the three-legged strange bird, and amazingly not fearing its opponent's scorching and astonishing flames!

  The three-legged strange bird was pierced by its roots, let out a mournful cry, and tried to flap its wings to escape, but was wrapped around by the layers of roots of the Qingyu tree seedling, wrapped into a big cocoon, completely unable to struggle free!

  Those roots seemed to be extracting energy from within the three-legged monster bird, and all that could be seen was that the monster bird's body was getting smaller and smaller, while the Qing Yu tree sapling was growing rapidly, becoming bigger!

  Ye Xu was shocked, the three-legged monster bird was so ferocious, but the Qing Yu tree sapling looked weak, yet in this blink of an eye, it swallowed the monster bird!

  "Could it be that the sapling in my dantian is actually a tentacled monster?"

  Ye Xiu couldn't help but shudder at the thought, anyone who was pierced by a tree full of tentacles wouldn't be having a pleasant experience.

  Fortunately, Qing Yu was not malicious towards him, but rather extremely affectionate.

  The Qingyu tree sapling swallowed the three-legged strange bird, and grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. It sprouted branches and leaves, producing one branch after another, and a piece of emerald green leaves, almost endless vitality emanating from its body, so dense that the space around the Jade Building was filled with milky white mist!

  The treetop expanded rapidly, supporting the sky and emitting a loud rumbling sound. The Jade Building space suddenly underwent earth-shaking changes.

  Only the small island under the tree grew bigger and bigger, along with the Jade Flower Pool, which was also expanded to many times its original size, like a small pond, the island floated on top of it.

  The earth is becoming wider and wider, and the sky is being held up higher and higher by the treetops!

  The space in Baiyulou was originally only two zhang square, now it has grown to a size of one mu!

  Ye Xiu was shocked, he had not expected that Bai Yulou's eagerness to obtain the damaged embroidered handkerchief was actually to devour his opponent!

  And after swallowing the opponent, it actually undergoes such a transformation!

  After a moment, the Jade Tree finally stopped growing. The space within the Jade Pavilion was filled with an extremely rich life force that was swept up by the Heavenly True Qi and surged into Ye Xu's body, nourishing his physique continuously.

  "Bai Yulou swallowed a piece of witch treasure fragment, only to evolve into this change, but the value of this broken building is probably still not comparable to the Flame Yangliehuo Flag."

  Ye Xuan sighed softly and carefully examined the Jade Building's space, but there was nothing else out of the ordinary.

  Finally, he still found a hint of strangeness, that is, the leaves growing on this jade tree were not all emerald green, and one of them was actually golden yellow!

  Ye Xuzi carefully observed, only to see that the golden leaves had just sprouted not long ago, looking extremely tender. The surface of the leaves was covered with many ancient textures, like text, but unlike any language he knew. It seemed like a small tadpole, strange and unusual, obviously very old.

  "Could this golden leaf be a book? I wonder what's written on it..."

  Ye Xu struggled to identify them, but those words were extremely small and couldn't be seen clearly at all, so he had no choice but to give up, and his consciousness withdrew from the White Jade Building.

  "It's better to focus on cultivation than to study the Jade Tower. As long as I can restore my pre-heavenly state and become a wizard, I should be able to activate the White Jade Tower, and all doubts will be resolved!"

  Ye Xuhui knew that this White Jade Tower was mysterious and profound, and for the time being, he couldn't study it thoroughly, so he simply threw the question out of his mind and opened his eyes.

  On the other side of the river, in the dense forest, Ye Li stared at Ye Xu without blinking. He saw that the three-legged golden crow had entered Ye Xu's body, and this kid didn't move a single bit, as if he were dead.

  He was worried about the power of the Flame Banner, so he didn't dare to make a move.

  After a moment, Ye Xue finally woke up. Ye Li could no longer hold back his murderous intentions and was about to rush out when he suddenly felt a chill in his gaze. He saw Su Qiaoqiao and Ma Sanbao hurrying towards Ye Xue from the other side of the river. His heart filled with regret, knowing he had missed the best opportunity to kill Ye Xue and snatch the witch treasure. He quietly retreated instead.

  "This kid's luck is too good, but next time you won't be so lucky!"

  Ye Lao's face twisted, and he laughed in a low voice: "If Fang Zhongshan of the Fang family, known as the number one martial artist in Liu Zhou, knew that his only son died at your hands, Ye Shaobao, even if you had nine lives, there would be no escape!"
