Chapter 1853 - 1836: Cold Indifference of the Human Heart

The Eight Great Masters didn’t show themselves, but their words had already revealed their stance.

Recently, Xie Tian had been ruthlessly targeting the Martial Artists in the camp, and they couldn’t be bothered to intervene, let alone for Xiao Ye.

"You... you all!"

Yi Tianzhou’s heart turned icy cold, his face pale as ghost.

He finally understood that while these Martial Artists gathered to repay the kindness of the Dan Venerable, his identity as the son of the Dan Venerable was perhaps even more alluring.

If he couldn’t practice alchemy, these Eight Great Masters likely wouldn’t care if he lived or died.

That’s reality!

When he was hunted in the Third Layer Heaven, did he see any Martial Artists here come to his aid?

By his side, only Xiao Ye treated him sincerely.

"Haha, a pathetic ant who doesn’t even rank in the top five hundred on the Realm Spirit List!"

"Eight Great Masters, you truly are arrogant..." Xiao Ye looked up and laughed wildly, his face full of ridicule.

He never had a good impression of these Eight Great Masters, but couldn’t say he hated them.

After all, why would the Eight Great Masters help for no reason?

Helping is a favor, not helping is their prerogative.

However, the arrogance of these Eight Great Masters, mocking him like divine beings who could dominate all, made him angry.

Everyone gathered here to protect Yi Tianzhou and compete against the top ten Alchemists of the Second Layer Heaven; even if not taking care of each other, they shouldn’t step on someone in their plight, right?

"Xie Tian, once this child steps out of the city, you may kill or maim as you wish." Xiao Ye’s words were met with a cold snort.

"Heh!"

"One day, I, Xiao Ye, will trample over the Eight Great Masters."

"With your presence, I truly disdain staying here." Xiao Ye looked at the crowd’s indifference, then gave Yuan Tianyou a cold glance before voluntarily flying out of the city.

"Xiao Ye, big brother, you..."

Yi Tianzhou was stunned, hurriedly blocking Xiao Ye.

"Tianzhou, my strength isn’t enough to protect you in the Second Layer Heaven for now, you should stay here." Xiao Ye smiled slightly.

Just based on how Yi Tianzhou defended him earlier, it seemed he had made a true friend.

"I..."

Yi Tianzhou’s eyes immediately turned red, his soul trembling.

He knew well that Xiao Ye was speaking the truth.

In the next moment, Yi Tianzhou took a deep breath and took out three Space Rings.

"Xiao Ye, big brother, my realm has recovered a lot. I used the last batch of Cosmic Spiritual Treasures you sent to successfully refine Star Pattern Pills and other Spirit Pills, far more terrifying than Faceless Spirit Pills."

"Take care of yourself!"

Yi Tianzhou spoke softly, feeling guilty for being unable to protect Xiao Ye.

"So quick to refine them?"

The light in Xiao Ye’s eyes shone as he swiftly took the three Space Rings.

After Yi Tianzhou successfully refined a hundred Spirit Pills, Xiao Ye attempted to use Fierce Beast Blood from the Late Stage of Heavenly Spirit Realm, barely lighting up the Fourth Layer of the Time Tower.

By activating the power of the Fourth Layer of the Time Tower, he managed to catalyze a batch of Cosmic Spiritual Treasures comparable to Colorless Stone Milk, boosting their energy, and sent them for Yi Tianzhou to refine.

"Spirit Pills refined by the son of the Dan Venerable?" Xie Tian looked at all this coldly.

For him, Xiao Ye was just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered; once out of this city, anything on him would be his.

"Our camp has so many Martial Artists, and the Eight Great Masters leading, yet only Xie Tian alone can take Xiao Ye away. It’s truly ironic." Watching Xiao Ye fly calmly towards the city outskirts, Yu Ming sighed.

Seeing such indifference in the Martial Artists of the camp, he too felt disheartened.

Selfishness and indifference would eventually lead any formidable camp to ruin.

"When I was in seclusion, my brother entered the Yellow Mound Spirit Valley to seize the Asking Heaven Willow for me, but it was snatched away by you, I must grind your bones to dust!"

In Xie Tian’s deep eyes, a fierce cold light flashed, clenching his fists tightly in boundless hatred.

His brother’s death, he was indeed angry about.

But what he couldn’t accept more was that piece of Asking Heaven Willow being snatched away.

Transcending the Late Stage of Heavenly Spirit Realm, becoming Perfect in Spiritual Power and Spirit Body meant reaching the Peak of Heavenly Spirit Realm, or rather the Spirit Rank Peak.

Reaching this level, any further improvement in strength was extremely difficult.

Yet, the Primordial Law Ancient Scripture he cultivated in still had an incomplete Scripture Phenomenon, and if he got that piece of Asking Heaven Willow, he might break into the top hundred of the Realm Spirit List.

So, feeling the mysterious aura of the Asking Heaven Willow on Xiao Ye, how could he not rage?

"Grind my bones to dust?"

"I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed."

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, as Xiao Ye flew out of the city, he responded calmly to Xie Tian’s transmitted voice, seemingly profound and mysterious.

Daring to face Xie Tian head-on, naturally, he had his reasons.

"Heh, Xiao Ye, you’re indeed extraordinary; given enough time, you might really break the curse of the Taichu Ancient Scripture."

"But you haven’t spent enough time in the Taixu Saint Realm, do you really think you can survive at my hands?"

Xie Tian laughed aggressively, forming a Seal Technique with one hand, as a massive Hand Seal instantly covered the entire sky. The terrifying power even caused the void to shatter, overwhelmingly dominant, swift beyond comparison, as if this world couldn’t withstand such a Seal Technique.

The Martial Artists within the Stone Giant City all exclaimed in fright, faces full of fear.

Truly, a Martial Artist on par with the Eight Great Masters!

Though Xie Tian wasn’t directly attacking them, the invincible momentum made them despair.

"Xiao Ye is doomed." Yuan Tianyou in the city revealed a cold smile.

Since Xiao Ye entered Stone Giant City, he had been suppressed, this grudge he hadn’t forgotten.

However, the next moment, his expression froze.

Encased in the golden Hand Seal, Xiao Ye’s body emitted the rumbling sound of the Ancient Scripture, an immortal ’Chu’ character emerged, radiating endless Divine Radiance.

Compared to when he first entered the Second Layer Heaven, the Initial Scripture Phase had actually emerged mostly, suppressing All Heavens.

Swoosh!

At this moment, Xiao Ye’s figure grew blurry, actually disappearing from the spot, akin to Instant Teleportation.

"What terrifying speed!"

Xie Tian was taken aback, his face filled with disbelief.

To approach ranking among the top hundred on the Realm Spirit List, whether in power, defense, or speed, reached an astounding level.

But Xiao Ye’s speed, which directly evaded his attack, was so terrifying!

"It must be the Asking Heaven Willow, stimulating his Third Scripture Phase!" Xie Tian gritted his teeth in boundless hatred, charging at Xiao Ye once more.

"Haha, Xie Tian, if you have the guts, follow me!"

Xiao Ye didn’t collide with Xie Tian head-on, but dodged again, laughing wildly while his figure surged, rushing towards the distance.

"Brat, stand there for me!"

Xie Tian, furious, pursued at full speed, yet couldn’t close the distance, though Xiao Ye couldn’t quite shake him off either.

The two vanished from everyone’s sight at high speed, one after the other.

"Xiao Ye’s Third Scripture Phase, already terrifying enough to rival Xie Tian?" Martial Artists within the city gate were dumbfounded.

"This..."

In the palace, the Eight Great Masters communicated through Spiritual Sense, all in incredible shock.

For some reason, a deeply ominous feeling arose in their hearts at this moment.
