"Thank you for what you did just now!"

Xia Wen took a deep breath and suppressed the surging Qi in his body. He looked at Ye Chenfeng, who had saved her life by summoning the Sword Spirit Puppet back, and said hoarsely.

"Did you see the two Level 9 Heavenly Beasts clearly? Are they two Flood Dragons? "

Ye Chenfeng: "…"

Time passed, and soon it was dark.

Ye Zichen and Xia Wen were both hidden within two tall ancient trees. They listened to the beasts' roars that occasionally sounded out from the River of Death, and adjusted their breathing as they waited for Tyrant Sword and the others to appear.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, the sound of blood spraying rang out, causing Ye Zichen to wake up from his meditation.

"What's the matter with you?"

Ye Zichen's body flashed and appeared in another ancient tree. He asked in a low voice as he watched Xia Wen, whose blood flowed out from the silver mask and curled up his body in extreme pain.

"I'm fine, I won't die!" Xia Wen said weakly.

"Come, let me see!"

Ye Chenfeng ignored Xia Wen's objections, and grabbed out her delicate hands from within his loose robe, releasing two wisps of soul power into her body.

"I don't need you to look, and I don't need you to save me either!"

Xia Wen used all his strength and wanted to shake off Ye Chen's hand.

However, Ye Zichen's large hands were like pincers as they grabbed her wrist, causing her, who was extremely weak, to be unable to shake him off.

"Let go! If you don't let go of me soon, don't blame me for not being polite!" The spirited Xia Wen said angrily.

"Innate Broken Veins, you actually possess the Innate Broken Veins Physique." Ye Zichen let go of Xia Wen's smooth and tender hands and revealed an expression of disbelief, "With your physique, you were actually able to cultivate to the third level of the Battle-Beast Emperor realm."

"You, do you believe that I'll kill you?!" Ye Zichen discovered the secret of his body. Xia Wen said angrily as he touched his silver teeth. In his rage, his voice sounded ethereal and melodious.

"Don't mind me, I mean no harm." Ye Chenfeng took out a small ball of the life spirit and said, "Take this, it can ease your pain."

"Spirit of Life! You actually have a Spirit of Life!"

Seeing the life spirit that Ye Zichen handed over, Xia Wen did not hold back. He received it, opened up a corner of the silver mask, and quickly swallowed it.

"I'm fine now, you can go." After consuming the Spirit of Life, Xia Wen Sheng, whose body was in great pain, coldly ordered his guest to leave.

"Oi oi, I saved you." Ye Zichen rubbed his nose and said unhappily.

"Did I ask you to save him?" Xia Wen replied, "You're the one meddling in other people's business, alright?"

Ye Chenfeng: "…"

Ye Zichen was speechless as he looked at Xia Wen, who was becoming more and more mysterious, in return. His body flashed slightly, then disappeared.

"Humph!"

After Ye Zichen left, a melodious female voice sounded out from the silver mask. Following that, a strong power of death appeared in Xia Wen's body, which continued to break all the meridians in her body.

And because she swallowed the Elixir of Life, this time she was able to reconnect a few broken veins, alleviating a lot of pain.

Early in the morning, a ray of sunlight pierced through the dark night. It crossed over the endless mountain ranges, enveloping the ancient ruins and dissipating the clouds above.

"She recovered. She actually recovered her strength in a single night. Just what kind of secret is she hiding?"

Not only did Xia Wen break the curse that the Broken Veins Body could not cultivate, he had also cultivated it to the level of a third grade Battle-Beast Emperor. This caused Ye Zichen to guess that there was definitely some shocking secret hidden in her body, otherwise, she, who had the Broken Veins Body, would have died a long time ago.

However, Ye Zichen was not someone who liked to spy on other people's secrets. He removed all distractions from his mind and hid within the ancient trees to cultivate, waiting for the appearance of Ba Jian and the others.

After about four hours, when the sun was high up in the sky, ear-piercing sounds of something breaking through the air appeared. The heavily injured Tyrant Sword and the others finally arrived, appearing ten miles away from where the two of them were hiding.

Feeling the appearance of Tyrant Sword and the others, Ye Zichen and Xia Wen stopped their breathing and hid themselves well, while patiently waiting for an opportunity to appear.

Very quickly, an entire day passed. During this day, the sixteen participants of Tyrant Sword Sect were making meticulous preparations as they discussed their plans to cross the river.

When the morning sun's rays illuminated the land and a new day arrived, Ba Jian and the rest of the 16 people no longer waited. They came to the edge of the River of Death, preparing to forcefully cross the river.

"The purple jade ship!"

Ba Jian was prepared for this long ago. With a thought, he summoned a purple jade ship that was as hard as a quasi-Dao item and filled with powerful restrictions. It landed in the seemingly calm but concealed murderous river of death.

"Let's go!"

With a loud roar, Ba Jian, together with Hua Luo Yu and the rest leaped onto the violet jade ship, resisting the overwhelming pressure of the space, flying towards the River of Death.

"Ao! Ao! Ao!"

At this moment, angry beast roars sounded out, the powerful Heavenly Beasts in the River of Death could sense the thick blood Qi flowing in Ba Jian and the rest, they all leaped out of the river, attacking the restrictions on the purple jade boat, launching a fierce attack at them.

"Everyone, don't show any mercy. Attack with all your strength. We will attack together."

Ba Jian, who was controlling the speed of the boat, shouted as he continuously poured soul power into the boat.

"Give us the sky in the River of Death, you just need to control this purple jade ship to speed up the voyage." Hua Luo Yu summoned the White Lotus Dao treasure and said loudly.

Under the attacks of the Heavenly Treasures, the Heavenly Beasts that leapt out of the River of Death were being killed one after another. A large amount of fresh blood dyed the river red, the thick stench of blood causing people to feel nauseous.

Just as everyone was giving their all, killing all the Heavenly Beasts in the River of Death and advancing forward like a hot knife through butter, two gigantic shadows approached them from the front and back.

"Bang bang!"

Two pillars of water shot into the sky like water dragons, intercepting the fast flying purple jade ship that was riding the wind and breaking the waves.

The next moment, the Overlord of the River of Death, the two terrifying Level 9 Heavenly Beast Dragon Turtles appeared on the blood-stained surface of the river, and let out a destructive roar towards Ba Jian and the others.

The terrifying sound wave shattered the restrictions on the purple jade ship, causing the ship to shake violently. Many of the geniuses who were weaker than them started to bleed out of their orifices, feeling excruciating pain.
