Chapter 208: Pink Crystal Dust

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Specks of pink began to slowly emerge in the distorting air over the sea in the distance. From afar, it looked as if thousands of peach blossoms dotted the sky and the sea as both men waited quietly. As time went by, those pink specks grew more in number and their color grew darker. Soon, the whole region was foggy and blurry like a dream.

 “It’s so strong!” Duan Yue was taken aback. Even though they were far apart, the pink crystal dust could still affect his mind. It was much stronger than the one they met before.

 Yunxiao looked calm. His current soul power was already at the level of a fourth-tier alchemist, so he would have no problem in safely traveling through the pink crystal dust.

 “Shall we go now?” Duan Yue urged.

 “No, we’ll wait a bit more,” Yunxiao said flatly.

 “Wait?” Duan Yue did not understand. The more pink crystal dust there was, the more stable the space tunnel would be. And if the dust grew less, the tunnel would become unstable. Now was the best time to enter indeed.

 “Yes, we’ll wait!” Yunxiao nodded. His eyes were fixed on the rainbow fog and did not relax for a moment.

 It was true that when the pink crystal dust was most abundant, the space tunnel was the most stable, but it was also the time when the soul power was consumed the most. Creating and maintaining a space tunnel in the rainbow fog consumed a significant amount of soul power, and it was extremely dangerous even for alchemists. Had it not been because there was lesser crystal dust when they came, they might not have been able to arrive here safely.

 At that moment, a beam of light suddenly shot toward the pink crystal dust and quickly pierced into it.

 Duan Yue’s pupils constricted as he said while fuming, “It is that fellow from the Constellation Sect! He’s been hiding nearby!”

 Yunxiao shouted as well, “This is the time! After him!”

 In addition to waiting for the pink crystal dust to grow less, his other important purpose was to wait for Heng Yuan to show up.

 Duan Yue grabbed Yunxiao’s arm as he took a step and rushed into the rainbow fog in the next instant. Although he was only a seven-stars Martial Grandmaster now, he could unlock the seal at any time and restore his strength of a two-stars Martial Emperor for an hour, which was more than enough for him to fight Heng Yuan.

 “What a strong power of crystal dust!” As soon as they stepped into the fog, Duan Yue felt a pink aura come blowing into his face, causing his head to reel. That frightened him, and he hurriedly covered himself from head to bottom with soul power, isolating himself from the pink crystal dust. But, he felt extremely laborious just by doing that.

 Although Heng Yuan entered the rainbow fog earlier than them, they could still see him struggling to move forward as a vague figure ahead, not too far ahead of them. With a dark face, he was walking one step at a time with great difficulty. Clearly, he felt a tremendous pressure as well.

 “Hey, my friend from the Constellation Sect, wait for us!” Yunxiao shouted coldly.

 Startled, Heng Yuan turned and saw a blood-colored tiger come swooping at him, roaring, trying to devour him.

 Horror-stricken, he threw out a palm, shattering the tiger instantly. A terrified look came over his face as he bellowed, “You’re crazy! Do you not know what this place is? Do you want to die together?”

 Yunxiao showed an enlightened look and said, “Oh, right, we are inside a rainbow fog.”

 Heng Yuan breathed a heavy sigh of relief and said, “Thankfully, you are not too stupid. If we were to fight here, although I’m also under great pressure, I’ll have no problem killing you two first before passing the fog safely. I just want to give you a fair opportunity to settle our scores when we get back to Qinghai…HEY! Are you out of your mind? Do you understand what I said?”

 As he was only halfway through, he saw Yunxiao’s mocking expression, and then a large amount of pink crystal dust was attracted by his soul power.

 “Hmph! You’re exactly like that Old Freak Constellation. Will you die if you don’t brag?” said Yunxiao in a cold voice. His hands seemed to have produced a powerful suction, attracting nearby pink crystal dust into a mass, which was then compressed into two pink balls that looked as beautiful as snowballs.

 “What are you trying to do? Stop it right now!”

 Heng Yuan was scared out of his wits. He could not believe that Yunxiao could grab pink crystal dust in the palms. Although he could do that also by mustering all his soul power, he would not be able to pass through the rainbow fog after that. In the distance, Duan Yue was staring at him with a sneer, as if he were about to strike at any time.

 Yunxiao ignored his shout. When the two pink balls grew to the size of footballs, he pushed his hand forward, throwing both out with his soul power. While spinning, the two balls pierced through the fog toward Heng Yuan.

 “Madman, you are a complete madman! FU*K YOU!”

 Heng Yuan gasped as if he had seen the scariest thing in the world. He hastily dodged aside, but then realized that the balls were too fast for him to avoid. So, he quickly mustered soul power in his palms and pushed them forward to knock the balls away.

 A hideous grin came over Yunxiao’s face as he put his palms together and clenched them into fists while pulling them apart like he was pulling dough. An invisible light exploded out in his hands, and in the meantime, the two balls rushing toward Heng Yuan suddenly blew apart, breaking into countless tiny crystals and shooting out in all directions like two flowers blooming.

 Heng Yuan had just pushed his palms forward when he saw the crystal balls explode and pink crystal dust shooting over at him. He was so terrified that he broke out in a cold sweat instantly. He had some reserves originally, but he hurriedly poured all his soul power into his palms now, forming an invisible barrier in front of him.

 But to his horror, he soon found that the pink crystal dust, which was granular just now, had transformed into needles by Yunxiao, and thousands of them managed to directly pierce his soul power barrier and were shooting toward his body.

 “BAST*RD!”

 Heng Yuan roared, feeling extremely angry and upset. He quickly performed an incantation gesture with both hands, and a diamond-shaped white stone emerged between his palms in the next instant. Under the pressure of his Primordial Qi, the stone broke out in beams of white light and then exploded.

 The explosion of the stone released a mass of pale yellow light, which blocked all the pink crystal needles and forced them to halt in mid-air. Seeing that, Heng Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, his face turning pale and bloodless with fear while his eyes were filled with a look of pain. Clearly, the white stone was something extraordinary.

 “A Three Lives Stone!”

 Yunxiao was taken aback. With his eyes widened, he said furiously, “You should have told me that you have a Three Lives Stone, and I would have spared your life! Damnit! How could you destroy such a precious treasure! A thousand deaths would not be enough to atone for your sin!”

 Three Lives Stones were a kind of very strange stone that contained endless soul power. Rumors had it that a mortal had once found a Three Lives Stone and placed it beside his pillow when he got back. He dreamed of his previous life, present life, and future life, a total of three lives, when he slept that same night, which gave the stone its name. Its value was even greater than a Purple Nine Neonate Flood Dragon!

 Heng Yuan clearly did not know about the origin of the stone. He had purchased it from some trading company, and because he sensed there was a great soul power in it, he brought it with him all the time to study it. He had released its soul power just now to save his life.

 After the stone exploded, a large amount of soul power spread out, blowing away the pink crystal dust around Heng Yuan and forming a safe zone.

 Just as he was relieved, he heard a sharp whirring sound. He looked up and gasped as he broke out in a cold sweat instantly. He saw Yunxiao wear a dark face and a fierce expression, with a basketball-sized pink crystal ball spinning on the tip of his right index finger, which grew larger and larger and produced an ear splitting noise. His heart sank at the sight.

 “Young man, we can talk this over! A gentleman reasons things out and does not resort to force! We are destined to meet each other, and to cut others some slack is to give yourself the leeway in time of need!”

 Heng Yuan was completely scared out of his wits. He knew he could never withstand this pink crystal ball, so he hastily resorted to reasoning. When he saw that he did not move Yunxiao, he drew a long face and begged, “Hero, please spare me! I was wrong, I will kowtow to you and give you everything you want! Please just spare me my pathetic life!”

 That stunned Duan Yue, and he scolded, “You are such a coward and a fuc*king disgrace to all Martial Emperors!”

 “Yes, yes, yes! I’m a coward, and I’m a disgrace to all Martial Emperors!” Heng Yuan said hastily, “You’re absolutely right about me, Lord Duan! Please intercede with this young gentleman for me and ask him to spare my life! When we get back, I’ll follow you and serve you like a servant!”

 Duan Yue, “…”

 Yunxiao felt sick on hearing that. He had seen many warriors who were scared out of their wits and feared death, but this was the first time he saw such a cheap one. “This is fu*king disgusting! You’re truly from the Constellation Sect, comparable to your sect leader! Now taste my attack!”

 The pink crystal ball gradually floated up into the sky. Suddenly, a stream of mighty soul power shot out of Yunxiao’s forehead and hit the crystal ball like a hammer, knocking it away like a baseball and filling the air with a sharp whistle. Seeing that, Heng Yuan’s heart sunk into an abyss instantly.

 “Damnit! Little bast*rd, I’ll not let you get away with it easily, even if I am dead!” Heng Yuan gritted his teeth in despair, his eyes filled with a venomous look. “You want the Purple Nine Neonate Flood Dragon, don’t you? Keep dreaming then!” He took out a jade bottle and poured his Primordial Qi into it, which produced a cracking sound instantly.

 A huge purple figure emerged in the purple fog, struggling violently with its head grabbed by Heng Yuan.

 “Die!”

 Reluctantly, Heng Yuan crushed the flood dragon’s head. The beast’s huge body twitched in pain as it was thrown into the distance. “Since you want to kill me, I’ll not let you get anything from me!” Meanwhile, he took out his storage ring and crushed it as well.

 BOOM!

 Yunxiao’s crystal ball smashed into Heng Yuan’s arm and blew apart. Countless crystal needles shot out of it, piercing his body and turning him into a porcupine. These crystals were not powerful, but they melted into his body as soon as they touched his skin. In just a flash, Heng Yuan turned pink all over and his pupils gradually dilated, showing a look of intense fear.

 With a blank look, he floated in mid-air and seemed to have calmed down. Apart from turning pink all over, there seemed to be nothing unusual about him.

 Yunxiao and Duan Yue exchanged a glance and began to observe with high vigilance. They had never seen anyone absorb so much pink crystal dust, so they had no idea what would happen to him.
