Chapter 1160: It’s Watching You...

Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins

Shi Yan stood silently in between the cut limbs and pieces of flesh scattered around the ground.

Shi Yan and Audrey had killed the two warriors of the Charteris family. With their dominant powers, killing the other two didn't cause them to lose anything. Shi Yan was especially not affected by the murderous aura of the gory bone. At the same time, he was able to use his negative energy to suppress the other. It was a piece of cake for him to defeat that poor warrior.

Flows of Essence Qi from the dead that naked eyes couldn't see entered his acupuncture points. It kept his mind focused and his energy remained at an abundant level.

Sha Zhao, Jiao Hai, and Jiao Shan showed their sincere gratitude. They bowed and looked at Shi Yan with their touched eyes. They acted as if they didn't see Audrey.

In their eyes, Shi Yan was their savior who had saved them from the slaughter of the Charteris warriors.

Audrey knitted her brow slightly. She suddenly recognized that to Sha Zhao, Jiao Hai, and Jiao Shan, Shi Yan was much more important than her.

Anyway, Audrey wasn't discontented. After she had known that Shi Yan's real identity was Shi Yan from the Great Four Creatures and that he had fused with the Origin like her, she naturally assumed that Shi Yan could earn respect from other people. It was inevitable that people would highly appreciate him.

As they were from races of the Great Four Creatures, they had their pride and confidence. They would consider experts like themselves as their allies or enemies...

The bloody limbs and pieces of meat under his feet sent out wisps of something like a bloody mist. After a while, those pieces of meat shivered and paled as if they had lost all of the water inside, leaving only dried meat like rotten, dead wood, giving people a nauseating, fearful feeling.

Audrey looked at the dried pieces of meat and then at Shi Yan. Her frosty cold face looked startled and her beautiful eyes flashed a hidden fright...

Devouring power Upanishad!

Jiao Hai, Jiao Shan, and Sha Zhao didn't notice the strange state of those bloody things. Jiao Shan asked,

"Why did you come here all of a sudden?

"

"I could sense the aura of the Charteris family's warriors.

" Shi Yan frowned and said in a low-pitched voice,

"Your condition isn't good at all. You must recover your God power as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to move further.

"

As Jiao Shan's group had climbed and crawled through the scorching lava, they had almost used up their God power and their mental condition was also really low. No wonder why the Charteris warriors felt excited and attacked them right when they saw them.

If they couldn't recover fast and if they weren't killed by the deathtraps in the Center of the ancient continent, the others would find them and kill them easily.

Sha Zhao's team understood their situation well. As Shi Yan said so, the three of them didn't hesitate for even a second. They sat down cross-legged and immediately took out the divine crystals to absorb the energy and send it to their Essence Qi Ancient Tree.

Shi Yan's eyes brightened. He rose one hand, pulling something above their heads. He had forcefully drawn a stream of earth and heaven energy from the sky. He made some hand seals and turned that stream of energy into cotton clouds hovering above their heads. Cool and refreshing beams of energy turned into steam and entered their bleeding holes.

The three of them were astounded.

"I'll check around.

" Shi Yan threw Audrey a glance.

"Please take care of them for a while.

"

Audrey nodded coldly.

Shi Yan smiled and turned into a bunch of starlights before leaving. He disappeared from their sights shortly after.

After almost one hour, he returned and appeared in front of Sha Zhao's team as if he had just torn the mist to get back.

Audrey's eyes emitted divine light as she gazed at him. She looked a little strange.

She was the Princess of the Imperial Dark Tribe. With some unique features of the soul altar, she could see even the tiny changes in someone's energy, competence, God Body, and more.

Within this short period of almost one hour, she found that Shi Yan's God power had become refiner and more condensed. Even his body seemed to have been quenched once, which released a robust vitality that she couldn't believe was true.

Compared to himself before they fought the Charteris warriors, Shi Yan's fighting competence was now even stronger. The recent battle didn't cost him anything but strengthened him somehow... It's...

Audrey took a deep breath. It was hard for her to hide the fear in her beautiful eyes. She was discreetly shaken.

She knew why Shi Yan had to leave for one hour. She knew what he had done.

"You can find spirit herbs everywhere in the Center. And the energy here is amazingly abundant. You guys can recover soon.

" Shi Yan stood by Sha Zhao and the other two. A starlight rainbow emerged and released the green, jade-like Prickly Pears. They flew and stopped by Sha Zhao's group of three.

"Although the thousand-year Green Chalcedony Prickly Pear isn't an Original Incipient Grade spirit herb, it's handy for the Essence Qi Ancient Tree to gather more God power. Swallow it and you can double your recovery speed.

"

The thousand-year Green Chalcedony Prickly Pear looked like an emerald calla lily, which looked like real jade with a lot of spikes like a small hedgehog. It seemed really sharp, though.

Sha Zhao's group's eyes brightened. They weren't trying to be polite and just opened their mouths and sucked.

The thousand-year Green Chalcedony Prickly Pear melted and it turned into a green juice with a sweet aroma that ran directly to their body. It then soothed their lower abdomen and the vortex, increasing the flow of earth and heaven energy that entered their bodies.

Sha Zhao, Jiao Hai, and Jiao Shan looked at him with more gratitude. They assumed that he had left for an hour to gather the spirit herbs for them. They had finally recognized him. They had the thought of sacrificing themselves for him.

The Center of the ancient continent was so perilous. If they made a wrong step, they would be consigned to eternal damnation. And as Shi Yan had taken risks to collect the herbs for them to recover, he had won them over without a battle. Now, they all admired and accepted him.

Audrey looked at their grateful faces and she knew that Shi Yan had won them over them. Later on, no matter what Shi Yan asked them to do, they wouldn't hesitate to work for him.

It made Audrey feel funny because she knew the truth. That man had just taken the chance to refine his absorbed energy and he just harvested some Green Chalcedony Prickle Pear by luck. It cost him nothing to earn Sha Zhao's team's sincere acceptance.

---------------------------

Yellow sand filled the place with scorching and humid conditions. Waves of heat swarmed one after another. All together, they made people hate that they couldn't just take off their clothes to feel better.

"Where is the end to this place?!?

"

Cecilia's graceful body was damp with sweat. Her damp clothes stuck on her body, showcasing her sexy, seducing curves.

However, no one could enjoy such a beauty in this place.

Not far from her, Shang Ying Yue was also covered in sweat. Looking at the majestic holy mountain far from them, she had a deep, powerless despair. Her mind had almost collapsed.

After a long time of walking, they knew that this desert wasn't a simple desert. They had tried everything to leave this area including teleporting, aiming at a direction and running at maximum speed, attacking with the soul energy, and more. Too bad, nothing worked.

They were still confined to this burning area.

This desert made them desperate as everything was just yellow and scorching. It was draining their God body and dissolving their willpower.

They felt that they couldn't endure it anymore.

If they couldn't leave this place soon, they would use up their energy, which would leave them with no protection, and eventually, they would become two dry skeletons in this desert.

"Do you have any solution you haven't tried yet?

" Cecilia asked when she leaned against a weathered rock exhaustedly. Her beautiful but now blank eyes looked at Shang Ying Yue as she muttered,

"If I had known I would die here when I was in the lake bottom, I should have...

" Her glistering cheeks with sweat blushed. She looked as if she was tipsy.

"Well, even if you think more about it now, it's no help.

" Shang Ying Yue frowned, her cold face tired. She let out a feeble sigh.

"We should have been persistent to go with him. After we have arrived her, Cang Yun has gone. He doesn't want to go with us.

"

"Yeah, it's true. If we have accompanied him, he would have helped us escape the deathtrap. I don't know why I always feel that he can do everything. Nothing could really trouble him.

" Cecilia smiled bitterly. Looking at the holy mountain, she sighed,

"It looks like it's just ahead of us. But no matter how hard we try, we can't touch it. Sigh, and, we can't contact him. Otherwise, he would come to rescue me. He... he promised me.

"

Cecilia's eyes looked baffled. It was because she was so tired, and her mentality might encounter some problems. Perhaps she was at the edge of being collapsed.

"He won't mind us. He has only himself in his mind. He's truly a heartless, despicable bastard!

" Shang Ying Yue whined as if she was dreaming.

Their angry mumbling turned into a magical soul wave that moved fast in this desert. It seemed to be able to raise a sandstorm like some God here had heard them and he decided to give them a hand...

While their minds were baffled, they had a lot of fantasy thoughts. They seemed to find an energy wave from the holy mountain that they couldn't touch. It looked like the mountain was teasing them and setting them up for a malicious prank.

----------------------

"Who is scolding me?

"

By the foot of the volcano, Shi Yan jolted up. He was so surprised and he looked at the sky. He looked awkward as he didn't know whether he should cry or smile.

Sha Zhao, Jiao Hai, and Jiao Shan were cultivating, their eyes closed. Audrey was also sitting by them. Hearing him, she arched her brows. Her deep eyes shot over the majestic mountain far from them.

"What did you sense?

" asked Audrey all of a sudden.

"It sounds funny, though,

" Shi Yan shrugged and shook his head.

"I can feel someone has just cursed me. The voice reached my ears. I think maybe I have had a lot of battles recently I am starting to have hallucinations.

"

"With your willpower, realm, and your magical soul, unless you step into the illusionary formation, you will never have hallucinations.

" Audrey's face was strangely stern.

"Recently, I could sense... a magical energy wave from the holy mountain. It seems to aim at you. I think it's watching you.

"

Not only was Shi Yan dumbstruck but Jiao Hai, Jiao Shan, and Sha Zhao were also startled and they woke up from their meditation. They looked perplexed too.
