Chapter 900: W-was It Just A Misunderstanding?

What did he mean by Divine Product?

Especially for consumable medicines or herbs, any unimaginably rare and high-ranked treasure was worthy of bearing the name of the Divine Product.

“Stay on the lookout and don’t let anyone disturb me within the next half an hour. Also, be careful; make sure no one disrupts the Di Gui Yin Flame with their energies. Otherwise, if the tranquility is broken, this entire space will become hell itself!” Yue Yang looked at Drunken Cat Yu Jie with a tinge of seriousness.

“Don’t worry, even if I die, I won’t let anyone get close to you,” Drunken Cat Yu Jie felt her blood boil.

She didn’t know how long Lei Qie and Blood Fang could keep Lord Black Flame busy, but she estimated that no matter how much they fought, it would not require anything more than half an hour. If Simba couldn’t deal with him outside, Lord Black Flame was very likely to come back immediately. Yue Yang needed to devote himself to the separation process and obtain the Vulcan Soul Refining Herb. Besides, should the energy balance be broken, an apocalyptic explosion would occur.

The enemy must be controlled first; otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.

Drunken Cat Yu Jie forced her fiercely beating heartbeat to slow down as she clenched her fist tightly and breathed deeply.

She tried her best to calm her trembling body. Don’t be nervous, you have to use 100% of your full battle strength to protect him. As long as he doesn’t finish successfully obtaining the Vulcan Soul Refining Herb, I won’t let anyone pass through.

Slowly, he lifted the Golden Dragon Slaying Spear that Yue Yang had given her. Then, she closed her eyes and held her breath, sensing any changes around them.

Time passed by with every minute and every second.

Though, in the heart of Drunken Cat Yu Jie, every second felt as difficult as a year.

Guarding him for half an hour was a tad too long; it was practically impossible for Lei Qie and Blood Fang to hold him down for this long. With Lord Black Flame’s attention to the Vulcan Soul Refining Herb, he wouldn’t bother to chase them and would definitely choose to return as soon as possible. Otherwise, once he discovers that Yue Yang was stealing his prized treasure, an intense fight would be unavoidable. Plus, if Lord Black Flame gave in to his rage and temperament, there was a possibility that he would attack the Di Gui Yin Flame, causing the entire canyon to erupt and bury all of them.

It would be great if I was stronger, if I have the strength of an Innate Supreme… “Come on, you can do this!”

Drunken Cat Yu gently bit her lip to encourage herself. She didn’t dare to use much force for fear that she would get nervous because of it.

She slowed down her breathing, dragging it out as long as she could.

All of her senses were focused towards her surroundings, guarding all four directions with one mind.

“Clank!”

A few scattered rubble fell onto the ground due to the rising flames.

Drunken Cat Yu Jie was almost frightened to death. Thankfully, the rubble did not collide or fall into the range of the Di Gui Yin Flame.

She hurriedly continued to maintain the state of mind that she managed to achieve, but her thoughts could not be suppressed in an instant: Ancestors of the Hundred Flowers Clan, please bless our treasure-hunting expedition to be a success! Should we manage to overcome this trial, this junior will let go of all her worries and skepticism to practice Double Cultivation with him. I will train hard and strive to improve myself!

Boom, boom, boom!

From the ground at a distance, there was an undercurrent of vibrations that transmitted through the sound waves.

Drunken Cat Yu Jie collected her mentality and blasted the falling stones into powder with the spear. Then, she rotated the abnormally hot air to form a cyclone, not allowing the Di Gui YIn Flame to detect any traces of alarm.

In the face of difficulties and adversity, the lack of strength was basically the factor that determined your stand between the bridge of life and death.

It determined the rate of one’s heartbeat, after all.

Drunken Cat Yu Jie was sweating profusely. Just maintaining this skill alone made her feel like she had battled enemies in a major war for three days and nights.

“Relax, don’t be nervous,” Yue Yang’s thought transmission came into her mind. She knew that he was reminding herself to loosen up and relax, so she did just that. Devoting herself to the induction of space, she gradually entered a state of the zone that she longed to enter but couldn’t. Under the World Tree, this state had appeared once before when her consciousness was linked together with Yue Yang’s Divine Innate Realm. However, based on her enlightenment alone, she was no longer able to tap into that state of mind. Who would have thought that it was under stressful and strenuous circumstances that she was able to finally enter this mentality.

“Pant, pant…”

With every breath she inhaled, Drunken Cat Yu Jie could feel herself sublimating.

Her realm was soaring. The energy accumulated in her original practices was now constantly converted through this elevation. Part of it flowed into the body and her soul, whereas part of the elemental energy was transferred to the tip of the Golden Dragon Slaying Spear through the transmission of the Energy Bracelet.

If she didn’t need to guard Yue Yang, she was willing to be immersed in the sublimation of the realm for 9 nights and 10 days.

A slight movement appeared in the cave hole above her head. An enemy has entered.

The enemy didn’t rush in immediately. Instead, the opponent attempted repeatedly to sneak a peek, seeming to be playing hide-and-seek with her. Occasionally, the unknown person would be halfway inside before he or she decided to observe the situation outside once again.

Was it Lord Black Flame?

Perhaps he managed to drive Lei Qie and Blood Fang away?

Because of the ideological train of thoughts, she could no longer maintain a state of keeping her absolute mental state. Drunken Cat Yu Jie realised that her own energy hummed with a shockwave after her slightly distracted mentality.

“Roar!”

Even without opening her eyes, she could ‘see’ the Black Flame Lord, who sensed the energy fluctuations below and was rushing down frantically. He must be stopped in the cave and a minute might not have elapsed yet. If I let him in, Yue Yang, who had devoted himself to collecting the herb, would be in danger. Both myself and Yue Yang would be as good as dead!

Kill!

Drunken Cat Yu Jie had no time to open her eyes as she raised the Golden Dragon Slaying Spear. The energy that still remained in her realm had not completely faded. Paired with the previously refined cultivation and her mind, the energy burst at the tip of the spear with every intention to assassinate the enemy.

There was no defense, and there was no fallback.

Just a spear equipped with all her might!

Lord Black Flame, who was as powerful as the 5th Level Heaven Rank, was surprised to find the spear that threatened to stab like a dragon. As simple a movement as cracking an egg, the blade pierced the energy flame that acted as his shield under the unbelievably intense stare of hers. Next, a shot pierced into his heart. Lord Black Flame was angry— this was simply such an embarrassment. Although he had been refined into a pure elemental body, it was truly such a shame to allow someone to pierce his heart with one single shot.

What made him even more angry was the fact that he let the enemy get inside the lair and failed to notice. He spent so much time dealing with the two brats Lei Qie and Blood Fang that he didn’t realise anything was amiss.

“Scram!”

Lord Black Flame held the spear with a hand made out of fire and caused an eruption due to the interference as he tried to kill her with a quake.

However, what he didn’t expect was that the long spear, which was only a Gold Rank, burst out with the power of a Superior Holy Rank. The flame-imbued hand wasn’t able to withstand the force of the attack and was easily overpowered, causing the spear to pierce through his chest easily!

“Shit!”

Drunken Cat Yu Jie didn’t let up. Even with a spear in hand, she picked up Lord Black Flame and soared above.

Lord Black Flame tore his claws along the walls of the cave.

Several traces of his claws were drawn deeply, but even so, nothing was able to stop her irresistible force. In an instant, he allowed her to pierce his body even as they ascended thousands of meters into the sky. Seeing that he could not resist, Lord Black Flame burst into flames. He crossed his fire-filled claws, slashing towards the head and neck of Drunken Cat Yu Jie with the intention of killing her in a flash, “Hateful little human bug, I’ll kill you!”

The scarred Simba appeared behind Lord Black Flame.

With his owner, they attacked.

Simba’s claws were torn heavily on the head of Lord Black Flame.

“It turns out that this stupid cat belongs to you!” Lord Black Flame fully understood why a mere 3rd Level Heaven Ranked Lion King would sneak an attack towards him when Lei Qie had left; who would have thought that this woman was his master.

His head was mostly shattered and the black-red hot lava flowed out of the Lord. He completely ignored his injuries and sneered, “Do you think this can kill me? You’re too naive. Sharp weapons and physical brute attacks were of no effect to an elemental body like this.Now that the trial run is over, you can die now!”

Drunken Cat Yu Jie blasted a soaring fist.

But Lord Black Flame easily caught it with his fire claws. Then, he used the other fire hand to draw the Golden Dragon Slaying Spear from his chest, piercing it against one side of the passage’s wall disdainfully.

There was a big hole in his chest as copious amounts of black and red lava flowed out. However, the injury wasn’t fatal at all.

The strong rankers in the Heaven Realm were different from regular humans— injuries to their hearts were not the main contributors to their death.

Especially if one was refined into a pure elemental body, unless the attributes were mutually restrained, there would be little effect.

Otherwise, the attack was invalid altogether.

“Human bug, watch me crush your fist!” Lord Black Flame ignored Simba that was behind him. The cat also had the flame attribute but he felt that the battle with Simba was almost meaningless as it was not difficult to defeat Simba.To kill a being with the same attribute, though it may be easy, it still required a few days and nights to do so. However, the human woman in front of it was a different story— she looked very fragile. With a light slap, she could be killed in seconds!

“Idiot,” Drunken Cat Yu Jie’s originally tightened face suddenly changed and became relaxed, “Do you remember the sensation of freezing, I wonder?”

“W-what?”

Lord Black Flame was stunned at first. To his horror, he discovered that his arm had already begun to freeze.

When he looked closely, he saw the Energy-absorption Bracelet on his opponent’s wrist, which was the ‘Elemental Disaster Bracelet’ that many celestial warriors and clemental beasts were afraid of. She actually possessed such a treasure?

Simba bit the Lord Black Flame tail and tried to drag it out of the cave.

Frightened, Lord Black Flame realized that the situation was not good. Where his chest had been pierced, it was no longer magma that flowed out but vapor caused by the collision of the freezing ice and the heat in his body. After becoming an elemental body, he no longer had a body that had permanent scars and was constantly hard and cracked. Without hesitation, Lord Black Flame spit out a fiery tongue of fire, forming a fire sickle.

The other unfrozen hand grabbed it and slashed it sideways, cutting and separating half of his own body.

While kicking the body that was getting colder with his sole right leg, he flew towards Simba as he managed to avoid the second thrust of the spear of Drunken Cat Yu Jie. Her attack was similar to a raging flame of a meteor, racing towards its target relentlessly.

Drunken Cat Yu Jie was anxious as Yue Yang was still picking up the Vulcan Soul Refining Grass below. If she allowed him to go down, he would certainly notice his presence.

As she was about to chase him, she saw Lord Black Flame split into two all of a sudden.

A heap of black flames broke out from the main body of Lord Black Flame, blasting towards the Di Gui Yin Flame. However, the main body stopped in an instant, using his fire claws to parry the Golden Dragon Slaying Spear of Drunken Cat Yu Jie, “I won’t deny that you came prepared, but in this type of terrain, I will never fail. Even if I only have 10% of my fire energy left— no, even with less than 10% of my energy remaining, the Black Flame Soul Crystal can withstand the waves of the Di Gui Yin Flame. But as for you, little human bug, you will turn into fly ash in the eruption of the Di Gui Yin Flame! Hahaha, adios!”

“No!” Drunken Cat Yu Jie screamed in despair. When the clump of black flames was going to collide with the Di Gui Yin Flame, she worried not for herself but for Yue Yang. If it weren’t for the fact that she was weak and wasn’t able to completely freeze Lord Black Flame, this kind of mistake wouldn’t have happened.

She rushed through the fire claws of Lord Black Flame, uncaring even as lengthy gashes appeared on her back.

Even when her own blood splattered, she completely ignored it!

Now, she only had one wish, and that was to stand in front of Yue Yang before the Di Gui YIn Flame erupts.

She thought that she could give up her life right away, but nothing should ever happen to him! This wasn’t only for the sake of the Tong Tian Tower, but also to protect the love of her life. Despite never truly verbalising it out loud, she was very certain that the feelings that she developed for him truly existed!

For the love that she wasn’t able to speak of out loud, for the love that she wouldn’t acknowledge officially, she wanted to stand before him. Even if she couldn’t shield him from the flames, she wanted to die along with him!

Accelerating, Drunken Cat Yu Jie rushed down from the kilometer-high passage with tears.

She ignored Lord Black Flame’s fall on the Di Gui Yin Flame and only opened her arms wholeheartedly—even if she died, she would be with him!

At the last second, her heart put aside all sorts of scruples, shyness, guilt and distractions. Merely one pure wish remained, and that was to be with him forever and ever. No matter what they would become, they would never part.

“My nose!” Student Yue Yang was hit by Drunken Cat Yu Jie who was speeding towards him. He was thrown back a 100 meters away and broke two stalactites violently, before falling against the hard wall of the cave in the form of a spread eagle. His calf twitched and hummed with slight pain. He covered his nose and angrily yelled at her, “Kitty, what were you trying to do?”

“I…” Drunken Cat Yu Jie found that her brain was not reacting fast enough as she never expected that she would hit Yue Yang in the chest.

Huh, even if it was a misunderstanding, why didn’t the Di Gui Yin Flame explode in that place?

Weren’t those my final seconds of life before I was to be welcomed by death’s arms?

What the hell is going on?

[TL note]:

At this point there’s more new characters that are emerging so I’m kind of making the glossary instead of referring to it. I’ll try my best to provide them as accurately as I can, so let me know if any of the names seem awkward or don’t flow all that well!

At any rate, enjoy the chapter! Hope you guys have a great day/night ahead of you!
