The Azure Sword God
Skull Hill Peak

Deathly Forest

Xiao Yu who had taken out his wings immediately flew slowly and arrived at Jian Chen's back. He immediately grabbed onto Jian Chen's shirt and led him flying towards the Skull Hill at a fairly high distance.

Jian Chen slightly twitched as he was carried by Xiao Yu like an object. But he did not protest at all because that way, he could also attack using a sword and defend with a sword sheath because both hands were free if there were enemies attacking from below.

As Xiao Yu flew across the place and had reached the Skull Hill, several worms shot straight into the air at an extremely high speed.

Many of them reached ten meters in length and tried to devour Jian Chen like a snack provided.

Having expected that something like this would happen, Jian Chen immediately swung the Azure Sword with all his might a few times and Xiao Yu on the other side tried to dodge as much as he could.

If it was only his own body, he would be extremely nimble in the air. But if it carried someone, Xiao Yu would find it hard to move and not as fast as his speed should be.

The qi blades constantly darted downwards and split many of the worms. As the defense of the spirit beasts was extremely weak, it would not be difficult for Jian Chen to kill him.

From this, Jian Chen and Xiao Yu understood that the reason the place was avoided by cultivators, was due to the large number of worms, which were very large, it was likely that their number reached hundreds or even thousands and it was visible from the number of skulls lying on all the surface of the ground.

The ground looks almost white because of the number of skulls. This also makes anyone think twice about coming to Skull Hill.

The worms come out more and more when the smell of blood from members of its kind.

“Jian Chen! That's a lot!” Shouted Xiao Yu while continuing to move at an extremely high speed while Jian Chen continued to swing the Azure Sword and resist the attacks of the worm spirit beast with the sword sheath that formed a qi shield.

“Hui-Ying!” Shouted Jian Chen as he continued to swing the Azure Sword forming a blade of qi. Such repeated attacks would definitely make him run out of qi quickly, and perhaps within five minutes, he would run out of qi completely.

Hui-Ying who took out her head from Jian Chen's clothes immediately opened her mouth.

Duars! Duars! Duars!

Strange, irregular blue balls shot out of Hui-Ying's mouth like an artillery shell. The attack was also powerful, although it did not destroy the body of the worm spirit beast, it directly pushed it back towards the bottom. This helped Jian Chen and Xiao Yu in alleviating the pressure the two were facing.

The combination of the three makes things smoother.

The Xiao Yu flew away and his focus ran out into the speed to dodge the worms.

In nearly three minutes, Xiao Yu finally approached the top of the hill. There, there were no bones at all as if the worm spirit beasts were unwilling to come there.

Wussh!

A little while later, Xiao Yu landed and put his wings back together. His Qi had almost been drained in half just flying for almost five minutes.

“If only I could fly higher, we wouldn't be chased by those worms.” Xiao Yu said that with a slightly annoyed tone. But he was helpless as his wings were actually not a flying type at high distances. But he is convinced that someday if the key to evolution to enter the Being of the Nativity opens, he will be able to fly very high. It was like the awakening of his Birth Form was imperfect or his strength was too low to unlock it.

Jian Chen did not care about Xiao Yu's complaints. He looked all over the place with narrowed eyes. If it was with the naked eye, no one would be able to see what was there.

“There's nothing here. Are we free to come to this place?” Xiao Yu's energy was tired as he stared at the only grass in the place in a fairly large place, and there was one ordinary-looking tree at the top of the hill.

“Weaouu..” Hui-Ying spoke back and gazed towards Jian Chen's face which was right on top of him.

“Yes, Hui-Ying. I can feel it too.” Reply Jian Chen as he used the Eternal Purple Crystal to track down something.

Xiao Yu fell silent and his face revealed an increasingly irritated expression of not understanding what Jian Chen and Hui-Ying were discussing.

The terrifying aura was felt by Jian Chen and he immediately turned his head to the side which turned out to be from Xiao Yu. He felt awkward knowing that Xiao Yu was angry because he did not understand what he was discussing with Hui-Ying.

“Calm Xiao Yu. This place looks ordinary. But there is an invisible Protective dome that protects almost a quarter from the top of this Skull Hill which is covered by grass.” Jian Chen explained to Xiao Yu not to be angry anymore.

“Protective dome? What is it?” Xiao Yu asked curiously as his frustration disappeared.

“I don't really know about this. However, there was a layer of qi that was compacted and transformed into something else for this place to appear empty to hide whatever was stored here.” Jian Chen replied as he slowly walked towards the front.

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows slightly because he did not expect that there would be something like that and he was a little amazed that it was certain that the person who created it must have been extraordinarily skilled.

However, to Jian Chen, he was not surprised at all because qi could be used for many things. One day, he would not be surprised that qi could create new life or bring to life something that had died even though the dead one was a cultivator.

The Eternal Purple Crystal continued to detect the qi that became the dome. And at the moment when Jian Chen approached, the Eternal Purple Crystal within his body trembled slightly.

This was a reaction that never happened again when Jian Chen was able to use a bit of the Eternal Purple Crystal ability. Which means, whatever is in there is something very special or even the qi that is changed to make the dome is also special.

Without any order or control, the Eternal Purple Crystal instantly devoured the qi that became a translucent qi dome at an extremely high speed.

Even Jian Chen who sensed it was shocked as the qi within his body increased drastically. But he withstood the breakthrough if the qi reached the limit he could accommodate and stored it inside the Eternal Purple Crystal.

The place seemed to blur in an instant which made Xiao Yu surprised but he was unable to detect the movement of the qi absorbed by the Eternal Purple Crystal.

Not long after, when the translucent qi dome disappeared, Jian Chen and Xiao Yu were shocked and petrified on the spot as they stared at what exactly was stored inside.
