After Dying of Anger, I Became the Destiny Villain System

Chapter 168 Big Bug Kog'Maw

“Essence of the Void, I never imagined such a wondrous place existed in the Eastern Lands (Eastern Wilderness).” Ye Xiu gazed intently at the vial in his hand, which emitted a faint green glow, and a hint of joy welled up in his heart.

Essence of the Void is a precious essence that contains unique spatial power.

A common use for Essence of the Void is to temper the physical body, making it stronger and more resilient.

Moreover, Essence of the Void has no side effects. As long as the purity is sufficient, even Great Saint-level experts can reap immense benefits from it.

“With the Essence of the Void, I will surely step into the Saint Realm within three years!” Ye Xiu declared heroically in his heart.

For Ye Xiu, there could be no better news than solving the greatest flaw of the Desolate Ancient Body.

The Desolate Ancient Body is now also known as the Desolate Ancient Waste Body in the cultivation world. Besides the shift in eras and the severance of Dao techniques, the most important factor is the need for countless cultivation resources.

It was fine in the Lower Realm, as his realm was low, and the true power of the Desolate Ancient Body couldn't be manifested. The resources required weren't too great, and he could manage to acquire them with some effort.

Now that he had ignited the divine fire and entered the Upper Realm, the bottomless pit aspect of the Desolate Ancient Body began to manifest. Without sufficient resources, he would be trapped in a cultivation quagmire, making progress difficult.

Countless Sacred Bodies, lacking sufficient resource support and guidance from predecessors, constantly encountered obstacles on their cultivation path. Their realms couldn't be effectively improved, and they ultimately passed away with regret as their lifespans expired.

Ye Xiu possessed the cultivation methods for the Desolate Ancient Body, but the required resources had always been a headache.

Until the appearance of the Essence of the Void, like a parched land welcoming a nourishing rainy season, it completely solved Ye Xiu's problem of insufficient cultivation resources for his Desolate Ancient Body.

It's no exaggeration to say that, with the Essence of the Void, Ye Xiu has the potential to cultivate his Sacred Body to great completion.

“Buzz, buzz…”

Suddenly, a terrifying screech broke Ye Xiu's reverie.

Ye Xiu looked up and saw a large, menacing bug with its legs planted on the ground, several terrifying claws flailing in the air, and dark purple eyes glaring fiercely at the Essence of the Void in his hand.

“Kha'Zix!”

Ye Xiu's expression instantly turned solemn.

Kha'Zix is the most common Void creature in the Void Secret Realm, ranging from low to high levels.

The one before him, towering ten meters tall, was clearly not a creature that should be in this area.

Kha'Zix, with a height of 10-50 meters, usually possesses the strength of the Dao-Slaying Realm, but its unique living environment makes the physical body of Void creatures stronger than ordinary demonic beasts of the same level.

“Attracted by the Essence of the Void?” Looking at the Void essence in his hand, Ye Xiu smiled wryly.

He was merely lost in thought, yet he inadvertently attracted an even stronger Void creature. What an unexpected discovery!

“Very well, I'll accept you, you beast!” Ye Xiu took a deep breath, a glint of determination flashing in his eyes.

As Ye Xiu's voice fell, the Void creature seemed to sense his provocation, letting out a low roar and pouncing towards him.

Ye Xiu's figure flickered, quickly avoiding the opponent's attack, and seizing the opportunity to unleash a fierce sword energy towards the Void creature.

Ye Xiu was well-prepared to deal with Void creatures, and the supreme-grade spiritual weapon in his hand was a handy weapon he had purchased for this purpose at the auction house.

“斩! (斩 - Zhǎn - Sever!)”

Ye Xiu snorted coldly, and a sword energy suddenly rose from the ground, carrying terrifying power and swiftly slashing towards Kha'Zix…

“Not good, there's someone fighting ahead!” Bu Shensuan exclaimed in shock.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became nervous and looked forward.

Sure enough, sword energy surged not far ahead, indicating a fierce battle in progress.

Qin Shou's face turned extremely unsightly because he saw that the cultivators' location was less than a thousand meters away from the Lost Secret Realm.

If they were to crack the ruins, they would definitely be noticed by the other party.

“Damn it!” Qin Shou cursed inwardly. The ruins discovered by his ancestors, he never expected someone to come after ten thousand years. What bad luck!

Seeing Qin Shou's bitter face, Yi Zhi Er asked worriedly, “Daoist Qin, is the ruin nearby?”

Qin Shou nodded with a sullen face and said in a heavy tone, “Indeed!”

“Then what should we do?” Qu You'er asked anxiously.

“Don't worry, there's only one person, and they're fighting a Kha'Zix.” At this time, Yi Zhi Er, who could discern sounds, said to everyone.

“One person, why don't we…” Wang Fugui made a throat-slitting gesture.

“There's only one person, and there are nine of us. Plus, Immortal Ni Yue is skilled in formations. There's no need to worry about the other party escaping at all. I agree with Fugui's suggestion.” Long Aotian immediately echoed.

“But, the other party is just hunting Void creatures here. It's not very good to kill him like this, is it?” Qu You'er's saintly heart flared up.

Everyone looked at Qu You'er in unison.

“Miss Qu, this is a secret realm, not the outside world. If this person leaves, the secret of the ruins will surely be exposed. At that time, we may all return empty-handed.” Bu Shensuan warned with some displeasure.

“But…” Qu You'er was still reluctant.

“There's no 'but'. Not killing him is very detrimental to us.” Yi Zhi Er also stood up to support Long Aotian.

“In my opinion, let's go over and see the situation first. If the other party is weak, we'll just take him down. If the other party is strong, using him to explore the ruins is not impossible.” Ao Yuan said to mediate.

“Daoist Shen, if you want to bring this person in, I won't pay for my share.” Qin Shou reminded in a low voice.

Ao Yuan smiled and continued, “Daoist Qin, my suggestion is to bring him in if this person is strong. If Daoist Qin insists on killing him, I don't think anyone wants to be injured outside the ruins!”

“This…” Everyone fell silent.

Just as Shen Gongbao said, they gathered here for the opportunities in the ruins, but if they were injured before even entering the ruins, it would greatly affect their chances afterward.

Furthermore, the situation inside the ruins is unknown. If they couldn't contribute due to injuries, they would definitely receive fewer rewards when the opportunities were distributed.

If they encountered danger, they might even perish in the ruins.

At this time, Dan Daozi, who had been silent all along, stood up, “Daoist Shen is right. I have recently researched a strange poison, colorless and odorless, that can kill people invisibly. In my opinion, we can absorb this person, secretly poison him, and then slowly deal with him. What do you think?”

“Since Daoist Dan is confident, let's follow Daoist Dan's method!” Qin Shou immediately supported Dan Daozi.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Using poison to deal with enemies can not only reduce the risks of direct conflict but also achieve the goal more discreetly.

However, everyone was secretly on guard.

Although everyone agreed to Dan Daozi's plan, they were still wary of this mysterious alchemist.

After all, no one knew if Dan Daozi would give them a heavy blow at a critical moment.

“Since Daoist Dan is confident, let's go over!” Wang Fugui said.

His gaze swept over everyone, glancing subtly at Qin Shou, the leader.
