CHAPTER 752: CHAPTER 619: TRAPPED, HEAVENLY-GRADE SPIRITUAL ARTIFACT

"Killing you would be letting you off too easily, Ye Lingyue. How you harmed me in the past is exactly how I will get my revenge," Xue Pianran said with a smirk, seeing Ye Lingyue’s pale face and frightened appearance.

"What exactly do you want to do, Xue Pianran?" Ye Lingyue feigned a look of terror, stalling for time while thinking of a strategy.

It was indeed the unique poison of the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion, extremely potent. The moment Ye Lingyue was poisoned, she felt her Primordial Power and spiritual power greatly weakened, nearly losing control over the Phoenix Feather.

Fortunately, she quickly calmed down. It was her excessive preoccupation with Feng Xun’s matters that had played into their hands.

She did have some Detoxification Pills on her, but against the poison of the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion, she feared they would be useless.

Ye Lingyue remembered Wu Zhong once mentioned that among the Three Sects, the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion was the most skilled at refining various Elixir Pills.

Ye Lingyue’s guess was not wrong; Elder Ying, as an elder of the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion, possessed a unique Spiritual Artifact—the Red Poison Cloud crafted from over fifty kinds of special Poison Grass and breaths of Poisonous Beasts.

Detoxification was no easy task. As the Primordial Power and spiritual power gradually dissipated from her body, Ye Lingyue’s vision blurred as if she were drunk.

Sinful Wine!

Earlier, while competing in drinking, Ye Lingyue had discovered that the Qian Cauldron could force out the alcohol from her body, and it seemed it could also extract the poison.

The Qian Cauldron, slowly rotating in the palm of her hand, began to draw out the poison of the Red Poison Cloud from her meridians.

"Pian Ran, why bother talking so much with her? Capture her, while she’s poisoned, it’s the perfect time to perform the Soul Separation," Elder Ying apparently was much more cautious than Xue Pianran.

She worried about delays and the possibility of people from the Mercenary City catching up.

Soul Separation?

Ye Lingyue’s heart tightened, she had heard of this method in the Hong Meng Notebook.

The Hong Meng Fang Immortal once said that it was a Forbidden Technique, and she immediately understood the sinister intent of Xue Pianran and her mother.

That vicious woman, Xue Pianran, actually wanted to use such a cruel method.

"You want to use my body? Xue Pianran, let’s see if you have the ability!"

Ye Lingyue felt her physical strength gradually returning, as the poison of the Red Poison Cloud was nearly neutralized.

With a stern shout, she dashed towards Xue Pianran in a ghostly manner.

Xue Pianran never expected that Ye Lingyue would still have the strength to fight back.

With a swish, just in the nick of time, the Red Poison Cloud blocked in front of Xue Pianran.

Ye Lingyue only felt as if her palms had entered a cloud, her strength suddenly vanishing.

And with the help of the poisonous cloud, Xue Pianran retreated back to Elder Ying’s side.

Not only did this poisonous cloud carry a potent toxin, it could even block attacks.

"The Red Poison Cloud has no effect on you? Maybe you’re immune to all poisons, which is a pity. Pian Ran has taken a fancy to your body, otherwise, I would have liked to use you as my Elixir Puppet," Elder Ying expressed her surprise and some regret.

Seeing the Red Poison Cloud fail, she took it for granted that Ye Lingyue had a special constitution.

"Damn your Elixir Puppet, you dare to scheme against this grandma. Regardless of your poisonous cloud, today I will shatter this damn cloud into pieces!" Ye Lingyue was infuriated by these two.

One wanted to perform Soul Separation, the other wanted her to serve as an Elixir Puppet—did they ever ask if she, herself, was willing?

With a flick of her hand, a small and delicate bell appeared.

It was the Thunder Bell!

The bell shot straight into the air, and with a booming sound, numerous purple lightning bolts carrying rolling thunder and fire violently smashed into the Red Poison Cloud.

The Thunder Bell showcased its Divine Power, followed by a sound like thunder rumbling.

The Middle Earth-grade Red Poison Cloud was shattered into pieces and instantly dissipated into nothing.

"That’s the Thunder Bell from Green Thunder Dao Sect, how did it fall into her hands?"

Elder Ying’s gaze darkened, never expecting Ye Lingyue to seize the Spiritual Artifact from Green Thunder Dao Sect, and with Elder Ying’s keen vision, it was clear that the Thunder Bell in Ye Lingyue’s hands had become far more powerful than before.

After breaking through the Red Poison Cloud, Ye Lingyue did not linger to fight and swiftly retreated.

Although she despised Elder Ying and Xue Pian Ran deeply, the former was after all an elder of the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion and clearly would possess more than just one Earth-grade Spiritual Artifact.

"It is somewhat impressive indeed, but sadly, you cannot escape from the grasp of my Five Fingers Mountain," Elder Ying snorted coldly.

As her palace dress and water sleeves fluttered, suddenly a streak of golden light shot out from her sleeves.

At this time, the moon was right above in the sky.

The sky, engulfed in darkness, lit up as if a golden moon had risen after that streak of golden light.

Countless dazzling golden rays surged like a tidal wave, stinging Ye Lingyue’s eyes painfully.

Above in the sky, there appeared a golden projection.

Upon closer inspection, it was a splendid golden Lotus Platform.

At first glance at the Lotus Platform, Ye Lingyue felt a sense of déjà vu.

This bizarre Lotus Platform was strikingly similar to the Nirvana Heart Lotus.

"Ye Lingyue, you’ve forced me to use the Golden Chalice Nirvana Platform; that itself is quite a feat. Now, obediently enter," Elder Ying said.

The Lotus Platform suddenly bloomed open, and wherever the golden light touched, it transformed into a terrifying suction force like a black hole, and Ye Lingyue felt her body being powerfully sucked into the platform.

After capturing Ye Lingyue, Elder Ying waved her water sleeve, and the Lotus Platform flew back into her hands.

"Mother, is that the Heavenly Middle Grade Spiritual Artifact, Golden Chalice Nirvana Platform?" Xue Pian Ran watched as Ye Lingyue was captured, her face full of joy, and looked enviously at the Spiritual Artifact in Elder Ying’s hand.

"Yes, my ability to hold my position in Yaochi Immortal Pavilion today owes much to this treasure. We should not delay any longer; let’s return to Beiqing and find a way to swap this wretched girl’s body through Soul Separation," Elder Ying, along with Xue Pian Ran, hurried back to Beiqing.

Interestingly enough, it was quite a coincidence that Elder Ying obtained the Golden Chalice Nirvana Platform.

Originally, she was just an ordinary disciple of the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion.

Under the orders of an elder at the time, she was assigned to guard the Nirvana Heart Lotus in the perilous Heavenly Pool of the Pavilion.

The Nirvana Heart Lotus was fiery red, resembling flames. One day, she accidentally discovered a golden Nirvana Heart Lotus in the Heavenly Pool and picked it on a whim, only later discovering it was the king of Nirvana Heart Lotuses.

Later on, Elder Ying got involved with Great Elder Chang Luo from Hunyuan Sect, who used some methods to refine the king of Nirvana Heart Lotuses’ platform into a Heavenly Middle-grade Spiritual Artifact. Thus, the Golden Chalice Nirvana Platform came into being.

Due to the dubious origin of the Golden Chalice Nirvana Platform, Elder Ying generally refrained from using it in public.

Previously, it was unimaginable to Elder Ying that she would use this Spiritual Artifact just to capture Ye Lingyue.

Shortly after Elder Ying and others left, two figures, like speedy arrows, shot into the sky and traced back to the previous location where Ye Lingyue was captured.

These two figures were none other than Heavenly Venerate and Earth Venerate.
