Chapter 1590 (Raw 1572): The Black Scimitar Pirate Group Again
“Whoosh!”
The Jiao Snake opened its mouth and sucked the half-step Primal Core Realm old man, who could not move at all, into its mouth.
Then, there was the sound of a gulp as the Jiao Snake directly swallowed him.
Such a huge disparity in strength could not be made up for with techniques and experience. The half-step Primal Core Realm old man had no chance at all before the Jiao Snake.
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and stopped the Jiao Snake, who was preparing to deal with the blue-clad old man.
“Brother Xiao Chen, don’t kill me. I’ll do anything you want. I can give you this ship and all the Spirit Jades I’m carrying.
When the blue-clad old man saw this scene, he thought that he had a chance to live, so he immediately started begging Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen showed a disgusted expression as he said indifferently, “Fei`er did not let me take her hostage to help me. Instead, it was to beg me to spare your life. Unfortunately, you old fogey, you did not treasure the chance at all. What is the point of begging for mercy now?”
“What?!”
These words stunned the blue-clad old man, who stared at Fei`er in disbelief. However, she did not even bother looking at him, only tightly hugging Luo Nan.
“Young Hero Xiao Chen, please spare my life. I’ll definitely change for the better and become a new person. Take it on account of Fei`er. Fei`er, say a few words for Master.”
The blue-clad old man was in a sorry state. He only wanted to live and became so shameless that anyone who saw him would vomit in disgust.
“Do it, then,” Xiao Chen said coldly. The Jiao Snake roared and launched itself at the blue-clad old man.
“Whoosh!”
Knowing that he could not defeat the Jiao Snake, the blue-clad old man immediately got up and fled. The Jiao Snake turned into a flash of black light and quickly chased him.
One man and one snake streaked through the Starry Heavens. Xiao Chen did not bother to continue watching. It was just a matter of time before the Jiao Snake caught the blue-clad old man.
“Big Brother Xiao Chen, save my senior brother, please. Please save him!”
Fei`er already cried herself dry. When Xiao Chen walked over, she could not help saying, “You must have a way, right? There must be a way.”
Xiao Chen remained silent for a while, not daring to reply. Then, he said softly, “Let me take a look.”
“Alright. Senior Brother, stop sleeping. Big Brother will definitely save you.”
Xiao Chen gave Luo Nan’s injuries a brief check. Then, he frowned heavily.
Actually, there was no need even to check. Just looking at the ebbing Life Essence and Luo Nan’s increasingly pale complexion, it was clear that he was close to death.
Separations in life and death. Xiao Chen had seen many of these in his life.
He would never forget the scenes of the Kunlun Realm’s many outstanding talents dying in the Demonic Calamity.
However, when looking at Luo Nan’s current appearance, Xiao Chen found it hard to maintain his calm. That blue-clad old man had really attacked ruthlessly.
The blue-clad old man had not pulled his blow at all. A full-power palm strike of a Minor Primal Core cultivator would definitely have meant death for the current Fei`er.
“Big Brother Xiao Chen, how is it?” Fei`er looked at Xiao Chen with anticipation.
Xiao Chen shook his head, indicating his helplessness. All the internal organs were shattered, especially the heart.
However, this was not the problem. At Luo Nan’s level, the heart was already no longer truly a vital spot.
The most important thing was that the blue-clad old man’s palm strike destroyed Luo Nan’s dantian.
After a cultivator’s foundation was destroyed, the physical body would lose all its recovery ability unless Luo Nan could, by some miracle, reconstruct his dantian.
“Senior Brother!”
Fei`er revealed extreme grief on her face as she resumed crying in pain.
Luo Nan squeezed out a smile, wanting to console Fei`er. However, he discovered that he could no longer raise his hands.
Fei`er quickly grabbed Luo Nan’s hands and placed them on her face.
Xiao Chen entered deep thought and took out a Medicinal Pill. This was one of the treasures that the Item Spirits gave him when he left the Azure Dragon Palace—the Blood Cloud Pill, which could heal all injuries no matter how severe.
However, the Blood Cloud Pill could not reconstruct the dantian. It would merely treat the symptoms and not deal with the root cause. All it could do was extend Luo Nan’s life but not truly save him.
Even so, Xiao Chen still did not hesitate to allow Luo Nan to consume this precious pill.
“This is the Blood Cloud Pill. It can stabilize his injuries for now. When Senior Jiao Snake returns, I’ll try to think of something with it.” Xiao Chen consoled Fei`er before silently walking away.
Soon, the Jiao Snake’s gargantuan body reappeared before Xiao Chen.
“I’ve already killed him,” the Jiao Snake stated simply before asking in a whisper when it looked at Fei`er and Luo Nan, “What happened to them?”
Xiao Chen gave a rough outline of everything that had happened.
“Sorry. Looks like I really came too late. I went to get you a Profound Yin Fruit to help you refine the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy as soon as possible. Had I known earlier, I would not have let that old thing die too happily. This is a disaster!”
After the Jiao Snake heard what happened, at first it raged, then it felt regret.
Xiao Chen thanked the Jiao Snake softly. Then, he asked, “Senior, are there any natural treasures or Medicinal Pills in the Great Thousand Realms that can reconstruct the dantian? I’ve already used the Blood Cloud Pill to stabilize his injuries, so he will survive for a period of time.”
“The Blood Cloud Pill?! That’s a Dragon Race Holy Pill! Even among the Holy Pill grade, it is considered to be at the peak. It is like having another life. You are really generous.” The Jiao Snake was quite startled to hear that.
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and said, “What use is it? His internal organs are all destroyed from the inside out. The injuries to the meridians are also very severe. The foundation of his physical body is damaged, and his dantian destroyed. Even the Blood Cloud Pill cannot save him. We need to find a Medicinal Pill or natural treasure for reconstructing his dantian.”
The Jiao Snake thought for a while. As it was thinking, it said, “There are Medicinal Pills for reconstructing the dantian in this Great Thousand Realms. During my early days traveling around with Pan Huang, I saw some. However, I don’t know how long the Blood Cloud Pill will keep him alive.”
“One month is definitely possible.”
“In that case, bring him to Purple Sun City. That is the capital of the Purple Sun Region. The largest auction houses and markets in the entire Purple Sun Region are there. Some genius Alchemists and experts of other astral regions gather there as well.”
Purple Sun City.
Xiao Chen repeated these words in his mind. In that case, his next destination would be Purple Sun City.
Since it was the capital of the Purple Sun Region, the flow of information would be better there. He should be able to find out something about Ancestor Dragon City and the Dragon Race.
“Hu chi!”
The Jiao Snake spat out an azure-colored fruit, which was covered in a thin layer of frost and emanated biting cold Qi.
“This is?”
“The Profound Yin Fruit. I specially went to find it for you. I had to fight an old tortoise for this Profound Yin Fruit; that’s why I was delayed.”
“Many thanks, Senior.”
After Xiao Chen received the fruit, he immediately sensed that this Profound Yin Fruit possessed a high value. Most importantly, it could help him refine the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy quickly.
“There is no need to be polite with me. It’s nothing much. I’ll escort you there. The people of Purple Sun City are rather complicated. I’m afraid that you will get cheated after going there.”
“That would be for the best.”
The Jiao Snake’s figure transformed, shrinking until it became a little snake and slid into in the ship’s hold.
Xiao Chen glanced back and saw Luo Nan and Fei`er still hugging each other. Then, he sighed and walked into the ship’s hold.
Purple Sun City was very far away. This ship happened to be ownerless. Using it to travel would be excellent.
Xiao Chen continued chatting with the Jiao Snake in the ship’s hold. He still had many questions that he wanted to ask it.
Since he was new to the Great Thousand Realms, he could gain a lot of insight from an experienced person.
—
Time passed slowly as the ship flew towards Purple Sun City in the Starry Heavens.
Purple Sun City was located in the Purple Sun Great Realm. Even at the ship’s full speed, getting there in one month would still be something of a stretch.
Four days later, the Astral Ship flew past the Profound Light Great Realm.
After passing another four or five great realms, they would arrive at the Purple Sun Great Realm.
Xiao Chen, who was making an all-out effort to refine the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy, was startled awake by Fei`er’s knocking. “Big Brother Xiao Chen, there is a ship following us from far behind.”
An astral pirate ship?
When traveling in the Starry Heavens, the biggest concern was meeting pirates. A ship that followed from far behind was likely a pirate ship.
“I’ll take a look.”
Xiao Chen followed Fei`er out to the top of the ship, which no longer bore the banner of the Tianyi Sect.
In the distance, there was indeed the silhouette of a ship. However, it was at the limits of Xiao Chen’s vision, so he could not make out much.
Heavenly Eye!
An eye appeared before Xiao Chen’s forehead and quickly flew out. After a while, he could see the details of that ship.
“A black scimitar.”
It was indeed a pirate ship. When Xiao Chen saw the banner of that ship, he muttered to himself, feeling somewhat surprised.
Wasn’t the Black Scimitar Pirate Group destroyed already?
