Chapter 914: Heavenly Heart Warning

After slaying Patriarch Poison Dragon, Chen Mobai should have felt a sense of relief. But Tongtianzhu's Heavenly Heart warning flared up even more intensely in his heart. It was even more intense than when Patriarch Poison Dragon had left after undergoing his tribulation. This left Chen Mobai utterly shocked. An enemy still remained! Who could it be?

To slay the formidable Patriarch Poison Dragon and thoroughly eradicate the hidden threats in the Eastern Barrens, he had already exhausted every tactic and nearly depleted his spiritual energy and stamina. At this moment, if any Nascent Soul cultivator were to appear, he would only be able to activate his Turtle Treasure and teleport back to the Immortal Sect for refuge. But if that happened, wouldn't the rewards he had painstakingly earned from slaying Patriarch Poison Dragon be forfeited in vain?

Chen Mobai gazed at the fifth-order Yellow Dragon Grotto-heaven behind the spatial portal, suppressed the frantic thumping in his heart caused by the Heavenly Heart warning, and used his Longevity Dao Body to heal his injuries. He then took out a storage bag and first collected Patriarch Poison Dragon's corpse and the trident forged from fifth-order materials. If an enemy truly arrived, at least the items he could take with him could not be left behind. It was a pity that the most precious items within the Yellow Dragon Grotto-heaven would be plundered by the enemy first.

Just as Chen Mobai finished collecting Patriarch Poison Dragon's corpse and trident and was about to activate his Turtle Treasure for retreat, he suddenly noticed that the previously intense Heavenly Heart warning had begun to gradually subside. What was happening?

As Chen Mobai pondered this in surprise, far away, Wen Buyue, who had been watching through an ice mirror, saw Chen Mobai, after recovering with his Longevity Dao Body, appear completely unharmed and composed. He then suppressed the surge of greed in his heart.

Wen Buyue naturally understood that given Chen Mobai's cultivation, having only attained the Nascent Soul stage a little over a decade ago, slaying Patriarch Poison Dragon — a cultivator with a true spirit bloodline — would have certainly taken a severe toll on his vitality, even with the aid of the heavenly tribulation. If he were to act now, he could very well become the ultimate beneficiary, not only slaying the exceptionally talented Daozi of the One Origin Dao Palace but also acquiring Patriarch Poison Dragon's true spirit bloodline. He might even be able to explore the legendary Yellow Dragon Grotto-heaven.

But what if things went wrong? Chen Qingdi's talent in swordsmanship was terrifying. If he possessed a life-saving trump card granted by the One Origin Dao Palace and Wen Buyue were to confront him directly, even if he managed to win, he would likely pay a considerable price. Moreover...

Wen Buyue's eyes narrowed as he recalled the silver flash of Chen Mobai's instantaneous movement during the battle. As a Saint Son of a major demonic sect, his knowledge far surpassed that of a mere beast like Patriarch Poison Dragon. That was not an escape art; it was spatial teleportation. The Vacuum Dharma Body of the Grand Void Ethereal Palace! Chen Qingdi had actually mastered it. Having been active in the three border regions of the Eastern Continent for so many years, Wen Buyue naturally knew that the first major sect Chen Qingdi destroyed
