Chapter 17: Chapter 17
It took him three days to arrive in the Devil Desert.
After arriving here he first ate some food to replenish his energy and then started to search the nearby caves in the Desert.
For the next few days, he searched around but did not find anything useful.
After another week, he entered a cave in which many flickering blue lights can be seen in the cave.
"Hahaha, I have arrived here." He laughed because he knew that Dongxuan Sutra was in the cave in which Ghost Butterfly were living.
After that he transformed into a tiger and also summoned the blue Armor on it and then started to kill the Blue Butterflies quickly.
"Primitive creature ghost butterfly killed. No beast soul gained. Meat inedible."
"Primitive creature ghost butterfly killed. No beast soul gained. Meat inedible."
"Primitive creature ghost butterfly killed. Beast soul of primitive ghost butterfly gained. Meat inedible."
Type of primitive ghost butterfly beast soul: one-off hidden weapon.
'Yes, I got its beast soul. These beast souls are one time use but it's more powerful than the others.'
He didn't stop there and was doing the massacre. Ordinary and primitive ones didn't damage him.
But he knew that mutant and Sacred beasts will definitely harm him.
"Mutant creature ghost butterfly killed. Beast soul of Mutant ghost butterfly gained. Meat inedible."
"Ahh." He screamed as his hand turned slightly. His Armor was penetrated by it.
He continued to kill and in few hrs he has harvested 150 primitive, 9 mutant beast souls.
Suddenly, from far away a big purple fireball came and exploded on his leg.
"Ahh." He screamed as his leg was burned and his Armor was greatly damaged.
"Sacred-blood creature ghost butterfly killed. Beast soul of sacred-blood ghost butterfly gained. Meat inedible."
He quickly ran from there and got into a safe passage.
After sitting down he used Jadeskin.
Using Jadeskin, Jiang Chen felt a coolness calming his burn and easing his pain.
Originally, Jiang Chen was worried that he might get an infection, which was the worst part of getting burned. However, his wounds were gradually scarring after he had practiced Jadeskin for a while.
To his delight, Jiang Chen had found all his wounds healing after using Jadeskin for a dozen hours.
"Jadeskin is indeed extraordinary. I was right in taking it first before coming here." He said with delight.
After another few hrs, he was completely healed.
This time he did not try to fight the butterflies but evaded them and ran deeper to find the Sutra. After the he found a narrow river in the underground. He followed it.
After an hour, he suddenly entered a large space. Water started to go down straight and became a waterfall.
Standing at the end of the narrow path, Jiang Chen could not see where the water was falling. It was deep and dark and silent.
Jiang Chen could not even tell how deep the larger cave was, given that he could not even hear the sound of the waterfall.
Jiang Chen looked up and his pupils suddenly contracted as his glance swept across. Using a torch, Jiang Chen saw someone sitting opposite him.
The person sitting there was glowing.
Seeing him, Jiang Chen was overjoyed.
"Hahaha, another accomplishment, another goal completed, another opportunity stolen." He laughed loudly in the cave.
His voice was echoing all around.
After that he came near the man. He saw that it is a dead man.
Although it looked exactly like a living person, it was obvious that its exposed face and hands were dried up. It was impossible for a living person to have this kind of feature.
Different from a dead person or a skeleton, the man had his skin and muscles intact, although water had left his body cells. Because his skin was glowing, he did not even look like a mummy.
The clothing on the man was very strange, much different from modern clothing. The material and style of his clothing were like the ancient clothes humans wore before they ever left planet Earth.
The dead man was sitting with his legs crossed and arms hanging naturally on a platform about 6 feet long extruding from the stone wall. Beside his left hand, there was something that looked like a scroll.
Jiang Chen without any hesitation picked up the scroll.
