Chapter 1073: Old friends

Translator: Sigma_ Editor: Hitesh_

Standing on the purple crystal battleship, Shi Yan traveled rapidly between the important mineral stars in Shadow Ghostly Prison.

The life stars and mineral stars with rich natural resources that the Dark Shadow Clan had left behind weren't many, and the distances between them weren't too far. This purple crystal battleship was made by the Potion and Tool Pavilion, which was much better than the one Zi Yao had in the Raging Flame Star Area. It could move agilely and swiftly.

They went to each life star and mineral star where the poisonous smoke was confining the Divine Light warriors.

Whenever the purple crystal battleships appeared, Shi Yan would descend and solve their problems.

The Poison-dipped Cold Bead hovered in the sky and drew all the toxic smoke like a whale taking in water. It became colder and blacker, feeling so cold in Shi Yan's hand while releasing some kind of cold-natured soul energy.

His thought flickered, and the Poison-dipped Cold Bead disappeared, reappearing in the Ethereal Extent in his soul altar, then hovered there like a dark sun which rippled out a cold natured soul energy.

This bead was the essence of the soul of the Departed Spirit Jellyfish. It was imprinted by the blood mark in his host soul. At the same time, it had a wisp of Shi Yan's soul, which helped him control the bead with his thought.

When the bead fell into his Ethereal Extent, it turned into a black light dot, releasing the cold Yin soul energy. Shi Yan felt his soul get calm and relaxed. He could feel the negative moods in his soul getting suppressed, which cheered him up.

His acupuncture points had gathered a lot of Essence Qi of the dead warriors. It had the aura of despair, resentment, bloodlust, and ruthlessness, which had affected his mind and will, eroding his emotions to the point where he could lose his mind.

The Poison-dipped Cold Bead fell into his Ethereal Extent and became the tranquilizer of his Ethereal Extent, which would block off the negative emotions from his acupuncture points. Thus, he didn't receive a counter effect.

He suddenly remembered what Xuan Fei had told him: The Poison-dipped Cold Bead had the magical power to stabilize the soul and prevent a situation of bedevilment. It was most suitable for the warriors with heaven flames.

After sensing for a while, Shi Yan smiled happily. He knew that Xuan Fei didn't lie to him. The Poison-dipped Cold Bead could really stabilize his soul, making it crystal clear and without any dregs.

Of course, the functions of the Poison-dipped Cold Bead weren't to stabilize the soul and prevent bedevilment. It could release the toxic smokes it had absorbed. The bead was like a particular container, such that Shi Yan could put things in and take them out later.

Shi Yan knew how terrifying the poisonous smoke from the Poison-dipped Cold Bead were. He believed that if he released the toxic vapors inside the bead in a war, the lethality would be unbearable.

According to Yu Shan, the Poison-dipped Cold Bead did have other abilities. However, she didn't know clearly enough to tell him about them.

Shi Yan had traveled through the big mineral stars and life stars with his Poison-dipped Cold Bead on the purple crystal battleship like a shuttle. He absorbed the toxic smoke and clouds there to rescue the Divine Light warriors.

Sana, Yi Zao, and Ju Bo followed him. Seeing the mineral stars and life stars covered by toxic smokes, they all grimaced.

"The Dark Shadow Clan is so evil!" Zi Yao had an icy-cold face.

Sana and Ju Bo slightly nodded. Their faces were stern, sighing inwardly.

They understood clearly that if Shi Yan didn't help them this time, more than three thousand elite warriors of the Divine Light who came to Shadow Ghostly Prison would have been killed by the toxic smoke and clouds. Even the two of them couldn't have escaped from death.

The Dark Shadow Clan had gone away from the Shadow Ghostly Prison, but they had left such evil restrictions. If they brought the army of the God Clan to Agate Star Area, the result would be unimaginable.

"There's something you don't know." On the purple crystal battleship that was flying towards the last area where poisonous smokes and clouds confined their members, Shi Yan frowned while talking indifferently, "The bead I got here comes from an evil, venomous creature, called the Poison-dipped Cold Bead. If we don't have an expert at the Incipient God Realm who also has the heaven flame from the Origin, if it goes into any star area, it will drown that star area into a catastrophe. All people, warriors, spiritual beasts, and animals will be massacred all..."

Pausing for a while, Shi Yan took a deep breath, his face stern. "The Poison-dipped Cold Bead... it stayed in the space passage. It's the trap the Dark Shadow Clan and the God Clan had left. If they couldn't invade the Agate Star Area, they would release the Poison-dipped Cold Bead to kill all creatures in Agate Star Area!"

"It's too malicious!" Sana and Ju Bo shouted.

Zi Yao's beautiful eyes had a gleam of fear. She was so frightened, smacking her tongue discreetly.

That malignant, inhumane method to exterminate the entire star area wasn't something the forces in the Agate Star Area could heartlessly do, despite the wars they sometimes had. And, they couldn't even imagine that the God Clan and Dark Shadow Clan could prepare such a wicked deed.

"You guys... resolved it?" Ju Bo was baffled.

"Right. We were lucky enough to invite an Incipient God Realm expert from another star area. She had the heaven flames, so she refined the Departed Spirit Jellyfish and left this Poison-dipped Cold Bead," said Shi Yan calmly.

Ju Bo, Sana, Zi Yao, and the warriors of the Divine Light around had their eyes brightened. When they looked at Shi Yan now, they had respect in their eyes.

He had the Poison-dipped Cold Bead. If he weren't the key person, how could he get the bead? Thinking about the primary factor named Shi Yan that the Second Elder Gu He had mentioned, the majority of warriors of the Divine Light could recognize his role in this event...

"Seems like all the forces of the clans around the Agate Star Area have to thank you," Ju Bo said in a low-pitched voice.

Many warriors of the Divine Light nodded.

Shi Yan was still natural and calm. "You have to be grateful to many people. Monster Clan, Demon Clan, Fighting League, and Potion and Tool Pavilion had joined that battle. Without their participation, the space passage wouldn't have been closed, and the great army of the God Clan would have come shortly after."

While frowning, he said, "The official force of the God Clan is several times stronger than the Dark Shadow Clan's forces. If your Blood Lance Fleet has the manpower which is five times bigger than now, you can deal with a troop of the God Clan's corps. Don't think I'm exaggerating. I'm talking about them modestly. According to the Incipient God Realm expert from the Fiery Rain Star Area who used to fight with the God Clan, ten troops of ours could be relatively compared to one troop of the God Clan. I hope you can see the difference between our forces."

Hearing him, many warriors of the Divine Light were frightened as they gawked in fear.

"Are they that mighty?" Zi Yao looked bitter, sighing. "I had met a member of the God Clan. He was unusually strong, such that I'm still frightened until now. I believe the God Clan's corps are quite intimidating. Otherwise, there are countless clans in this immense universe, so why has the God Clan always dominated the vast area?"

Sana and Ju Bo kept silent, their faces solemn.

They needed to digest what Shi Yan had just told them. They didn't talk more and just frowned, sinking in their thoughts.

Two days later, the purple crystal battleship landed on a life star which looked like the beautiful full moon. The atmosphere of this star also was covered with toxic smoke and clouds. Shi Yan plunged down, using the Poison-dipped Cold Bead to collect all of the extreme toxins.

Right after that, the purple crystal battleship slowly landed on the magnificent surface of the planet. Blue oceans stretched over the planet with many scattered islands. Some islets were sparkling like gems in the middle of the sea, embellishing it with the dreamy decorations.

"I'm taking you to meet someone." Zi Yao smiled gently. "Before I departed to the divine crystal lode, I passed by this star. Come with me."

Shi Yan was surprised. He nodded immediately.

An amethyst war chariot roared, flying out of the massive battleship. Zi Yao waved at Shi Yan. After he hopped on, the amethyst war chariot flew towards a small, gourd-shaped island. The war chariot moved like an express shuttle at breakneck speed.

Shortly after, the war chariot hovered above the gourd-shaped island and landed. As soon as they landed, Zi Yao pitched her voice to call gently. "Hello! Come see who's just arrived!"

This island wasn't so big. It was like a tropical island with hot and humid jungles. Situated in the middle of the island were some small mountains, which weren't really tall.

The mountains were green, with luxuriant trees and foliage. By the foot of the mountains, they could see many precious gemstones sparkling. From a distance, they knew that the source of light of this island was those gemstones, which were fulgent in many colors. However, since they didn't have energy, warriors weren't interested in collecting them.

Some mountain flanks had a few delicate caves where they could see people moving. Most of them were warriors of the Divine Light.

Some figures suddenly stormed out of a cave and lifted their faces to watch the sky. Seeing Shi Yan from a distance, all of them were filled with joy.

Shi Yan looked shocked, then smile stretched across his face. "Why are you here?"

They were Bao Ao, Jie Ji, Bo Rou, and Ka Fu, the ones who should be in the Raging Flame Star Area. Seeing them in this star area, Shi Yan was thrilled.

When they were still in the Grace Mainland, Bao Ao and Jie Jie had treated him well. When they struggled to get rid of the place and enter the Raging Flame Star Area, they were captured by the Underworld League. They were the true comrades who had undergone hardships together.

Thus, Shi Yan hadn't regretted giving away the star map to rescue Bao Ao and Jie Ji trapped inside the Soul Sucking Demonic Flower. After they were recovered, Ka Tuo had arranged his brother Ka Fu to bring them out of the Heaven Punishment City, and hide them in some dead star area.

He thought that it would be hard to meet them again. But now, in Shadow Ghostly Prison of Agate Star Area, they were reunited.

Bao Ao, Jie Ji, and Bo Rou were at the King God Realm. Bao Ao and Jie Jie had reached the Third Sky of King God Realm, while Bo Rou was at the Second Sky of King God Realm. Seeing Shi Yan, they were so excited, talking to him. "It's because of Her Highness, Princess Zi Yao."

Shi Yan was surprised. He turned to Zi Yao, who was smiling next to him. "You did return to the Raging Flame Star Area?"

"Yeah, I went home once." Zi Yao didn't conceal, answering him with ease. "The Divine Light isn't far from the space hub of Shadow Ghostly Prison. While cultivating in Divine Light, I visited that area. I spent several years to find the space slit leading to the Raging Flame Star Area. I did return there with some precursors of my force."
