23. Primal Demon Eyes! The Demon Emperor’s Precise Control!
Boom...!
Just as Su Ming's consciousness lightly touched the jade talisman, an intense icy aura suddenly erupted.
The Extreme Ice Divine Talisman, which had been slowly rotating, instantly revealed its ferocity.
A piercing white frost expanded violently.
Wherever it spread, jade bottles and artifacts on the ground shattered instantly under the frost’s breath.
This frost power was incredibly strong, capable of freezing flesh in an instant, erasing souls, and even freezing consciousness itself.
"Its power is truly astonishing."
Su Ming’s eyes tightened, but this only fueled his fighting spirit.
A treasure like this was worth conquering!
"Primal Demon Eyes."
Su Ming’s eyes opened and closed, revealing golden pupils.
An explosive surge of spiritual power burst forth, and a wave of pure dragon power slammed into the Extreme Ice Divine Talisman.
The talisman was immediately suppressed, and the surrounding frost momentarily stagnated.
Then, Su Ming’s hands moved rapidly, weaving spiritual energy like silk, forming a massive cocoon around the talisman.
He unleashed divine abilities one after another.
Holy Demon Divine Fist...
Ancestral Dragon Power...
Demon Extreme Celestial Art...
Abyssal Heaven Finger...
Each technique pressed down upon the talisman.
At first, the talisman struggled violently, continuously releasing frost in an attempt to escape.
But gradually, its resistance weakened.
Until finally, Su Ming’s hand reached out, and a colossal spiritual energy hand came crashing down.
In an instant, the talisman dimmed.
No longer emitting extra frost energy, it obediently settled in Su Ming’s palm.
"Good stuff."
Su Ming was very satisfied.
This Extreme Ice Divine Talisman, clearly, Ye Chen had yet to fully refine it, already possessed such terrifying power.
If fully refined for his own use, just the strength of this treasure alone...
Su Ming would have enough power to rival an expert of the Nether Sea Realm.
[Detected a Destiny Artifact! Artifact refinement possible using Demonic Charm Points]
"Hmm?"
Su Ming was surprised.
He could refine it using Demonic Charm Points?
[This item is linked to the destiny of the Fate's Chosen, thus it can be refined using Demonic Charm Points.]
[1,000 Demonic Charm Points can refine one-tenth of it.]
"That’s a bit expensive."
Su Ming glanced at his remaining 4,000 Demonic Charm Points, shook his head, but still said, "Refine it."
*Buzz...!*
A white glow wrapped around the Extreme Ice Divine Talisman.
The imprint left by Ye Chen inside it shattered instantly, replaced by Su Ming’s will.
With a flick of his hand, the Extreme Ice Divine Talisman spun into his palm.
Su Ming closed his eyes and felt its immense power.
But now, it belonged to him...
The corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
Ye Chen, oh Ye Chen, I’ll need you to keep gathering more treasures like this for me.
Suddenly, Su Ming seemed to sense something, his gaze shifting to the side.
His eyes appeared to pierce through walls and mountains, locking onto a distant point.
He sensed that his Immortal Silkworm had been devoured...
......
Inside the Flame Cavern.
"This is actually the Heaven Piercing Primordial Pill!"
"The spiritual energy contained within it is incredibly rich, making it the perfect aid for my current situation."
Ye Chen looked at the pill Ling'er had brought him, his face filled with joy.
He had initially thought Ling'er would only manage to obtain a seventh or eighth-grade pill at best, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a Heaven Piercing Primordial Pill!
"Ling'er, this time, it’s all thanks to you!"
He eagerly opened his mouth, impatient to swallow the pill.
Before him, Ye Ling held the pill, but her expression froze slightly.
She lowered her head slightly, her scattered bangs covering her expression, while beneath her hair lay an unreadable look.
"Ling'er, what are you doing? Hurry up and give it to me!"
Ye Chen grew anxious.
His chance to escape was right in front of him... Why was Ye Ling hesitating?
"Young Master..."
"If you escape, what do you wish to do first?"
Ye Ling finally spoke, her face carrying a trace of expectation as she looked up.
"Hmm?"
"Of course, the first thing is to leave here and find a place to recover."
Ye Chen frowned, a little impatient.
"I am seriously injured, but it’s nothing too severe..."
"As long as I have some time, I’ll fully recover and even break through to a higher level!"
He was full of confidence.
With his talent and strength, rapid progress was only a matter of time.
Though he had suffered great losses this time, with a few fortuitous encounters, he could make up for everything.
"Young Master, take Ling'er with you."
Ye Ling didn’t hear the answer she wanted and pressed further.
Her eyes flickered, filled with hope.
"Take you with me?"
Ye Chen furrowed his brows, feeling a hint of annoyance.
This little maid, why was she talking so much?
At this moment, Ye Chen, having endured days of captivity and suffering, was emotionally unstable and easily irritated.
If Ye Ling weren’t holding the pill he needed, he might have already scolded her.
"Ling'er, you see my current situation, I’m struggling just to escape on my own, bringing someone else along is impossible."
Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said.
"But don’t worry, just stay here at Cangyun Dao Sect, and one day, I will return!"
He forced a reassuring smile, trying to use words to pacify his little maid.
He knew she had been obedient since childhood and was easy to coax.
This time should be no different.
Ye Ling’s eyes dimmed.
Ye Chen didn’t notice that her expression had turned colder, and she remained silent.
She extended her hand, shoving the pill into Ye Chen’s grasp.
The Heaven Piercing Primordial Pill melted upon entering his mouth.
Ye Chen immediately felt a surge of spiritual energy pouring into his dried-up inner palace.
Within, the Divine Talisman Stone Tower shone brightly as if a long-droughted land had finally received rain.
The next moment, his damaged inner palace began recovering at a visible rate.
*Boom*
With a loud bang, Ye Chen broke free from his shackles.
"I’m finally... out!"
Ye Chen was ecstatic, his face twisting with excitement.
"Su Ming, just wait, your biggest mistake was not killing me!"
"It won’t be long before I return!"
"And when I do, it will be your end!"
What do you think?
