Chapter 830: The Crow King’s Rage

Suddenly, Hei Yu who sat in cultivation on the side slowly opened his eyes. He looked towards Rui Jin and said, “Rui Jin, I feel the presence of the Winged Tiger God. It’s already come.”

Rui Jin stared blankly at the red dragon soul that had just revived. Only after quite a while did he finally look away, shifting his gaze to Hei Yu. “I know. Other than the Winged Tiger God, even the human chased after by the saint artifact has come. Hei Yu, you’re currently in the most crucial period. Cultivate without worry. After you break through to the Ninth Heavenly Layer, we can go find the artifact spirit to heal your limb.” With a careful glance, one would notice that Hei Yu’s right sleeve was empty. He had completely lost his right arm.

Hei Yu nodded. He looked at Rui Jin in deep gratitude and said, “Rui Jin, thank you!” The only reason why he was able to absorb the energy of the world in the necropolis was because of Rui Jin. With him concealing Hei Yu’s presence, the dragon souls were unable to detect Hei Yu as a foreign existence. Additionally, he used his own abilities to convert the energy in the necropolis before giving it to Hei Yu to absorb.

Rui Jin roared at the sky. Deep sorrow and loneliness appeared on his face. “In my entire life, I’ve only had two friends. Other than that girl from the Divine Phoenix clan, there’s just you, Hei Yu.”

Hei Yu glanced at Rui Jin with mixed emotions. He seemed to be able to understand Rui Jin’s current emotions and a sliver of loneliness also appeared on his face. However, he quickly refocused his attention, slowly closing his eyes to continue his cultivation. He was preparing for an attempt to break through to the Ninth Heavenly Layer.

Rui Jin did not leave Hei Yu’s side. Currently, no matter what happened, he could not even take a step away. He needed to conceal Hei Yu’s presence, to guarantee his safety.

Although the dragon souls had no consciousness and were filled with hostility, they would not attack clansmen.

In the rather dark cave, both Jian Chen and the Heavenly Enchantress sat on the ground with their legs crossed. Jian Chen had already sent the white tiger back into the artifact space, allowing it continually increase its strength through the use of heavenly resources.

Outside the cave, the roars of the dragon souls pierced the sky. It caused the mountain range to shake, preventing the two of them from getting any peace during this entire period. This was all because the dragon souls had increased to over thirty outside, with the weakest at Class 7. The number of Class 8 dragon souls had also increased to three from the initial one. Thirty-odd dragon souls directly patrolled about in a radius of several dozen kilometers, without any leaving at all since the beginning.

In the cave, Jian Chen slowly closed his eyes. He stood up and paced about, while his eyebrows furrowed with a sliver of worry. He then looked at the Heavenly Enchantress and said, “Senior, it won’t work if this continues. Are those dragon souls going to keep moving about outside? Is there any way to make them leave?”

The Heavenly Enchantress slowly opened her eyes and after a slight deliberation, she said, “There is one way.”

Jian Chen’s eyes brightened. He immediately asked, “What is it?”

“The method is to have someone outside attract the attention of the dragon souls and then lead them away,” the Heavenly Enchantress said indifferently.

With that, a sliver of despair appeared in Jian Chen’s eyes. The Fantasy Star Ocean was a danger zone only second to the Death’s Nest on the Tian Yuan Continent. There were extremely few people who dared to enter this place; it was even ordinary for no one to enter even after several decades. It was virtually impossible to get someone to attract the attention of the dragon souls outside.

“Looks like we can only keep waiting.” Jian Chen sighed softly. He sat down once again.

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed. He and the Heavenly Enchantress had basically passed that period of time in silence, without saying much at all. Meanwhile, the patrolling dragon souls did not leave, and instead increased in number, reaching over forty from the initial thirty-odd. Those other dragon souls were all drawn over by the initial dragon souls. They moved around mindlessly, without purposefully searching for anything. They did not seem to know about the presence of the two of them at all.

Seven days later, Jian Chen could no longer sit around once again. He stood up and thought, “Why don’t I recover some Chaotic Force instead of wasting time?” With that, a golden light immediately shot from the center of Jian Chen’s eyebrows. It turned into a palm-sized golden tower.

“What do you want to do?” As soon as Jian Chen did something, it attracted the Heavenly Enchantress’s attention. She stared fixedly at Jian Chen with her beautiful eyes, glancing at the golden tower without the slightest clue. She carried an expression of curiosity.

Currently, there were dragon souls moving about outside. They completely relied on the boulders blocking the cave entrance to isolate their presence and prevent the dragon souls from noticing them. As a result, the Heavenly Enchantress was worried that Jian Chen would create too large of a commotion and alarm the dragon souls outside.

“Senior, I want to cultivate a little and recover some strength.” Jian Chen replied.

“No, with the residue energy, it will definitely attract the attention of the dragon souls outside,” the Heavenly Enchantress said sternly. Her tone allowed no exceptions.
