Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 515 - 477 Devil’s Cave_1

Lu Chuan’s face turned ashen with shock as all his strength suddenly erupted, charging straight towards Yu Sisi.

He had no idea why Yu Sisi would suddenly make a move. Under such circumstances, he could only fight with all his might to protect himself.

However, just as his power was released, the scene before him abruptly changed. Yu Sisi, with her back towards him, continued walking forward, never once looking back.

An illusion!

Lu Chuan instantly realized what was happening. There was some force within the cave that could affect one’s mind, creating the illusion of being attacked by a companion and, in response, causing one to turn and strike at an ally.

By the time he realized this, his power had already lashed out towards Yu Sisi and could not be retracted.

Yu Sisi, too, became aware of the danger. In a moment of crisis, she separated from Zhong Ling’er’s body, using her own ghostly form to block Lu Chuan’s attack.

Pain clouded her face, and her spirit body even showed signs of dissipating. Nevertheless, she managed to withstand the blow and returned to Zhong Ling’er’s body.

In comparison to before, her aura had significantly weakened. Lu Chuan’s strike had inflicted considerable harm upon her.

Filled with remorse, Lu Chuan rushed to Yu Sisi’s side and said, "I was just influenced in my mind and thought you were going to strike at me, so I released my power in a panic. I’m sorry."

Yu Sisi smiled and replied, "It doesn’t matter. The entrance to the Devil’s Cave has been contaminated by the Yin evil force for years. It’s normal for it to affect your mind. Just remember in the future, no matter what happens, I will never harm you. You must guard your spirit and not be influenced."

Lu Chuan nodded earnestly and then asked with concern, "How are you feeling? Should we heal your wounds before we continue?"

Yu Sisi had used her own spirit to fend off the attack, clearly to protect Zhong Ling’er. This act wiped away any suspicion Lu Chuan held towards her, even stirring a bit of emotion in him.

Yu Sisi shook her head and said, "I’m fine. Let’s hurry on. This time you lead the way."

Lu Chuan nodded and walked ahead of Yu Sisi, moving further into the cave.

As soon as Yu Sisi confirmed Lu Chuan could not see her, her face revealed a pained expression, and she couldn’t stop trembling. Clearly, the recent attack had inflicted unimaginable damage upon her.

But she had no intention of telling Lu Chuan, after all... it made no difference whether she told him or not.

They walked along the cave for a long time, descending all the while, as the temperature around them continuously dropped and the Yin energy grew denser. Even Lu Chuan felt his hair stand on end.

There was no light inside, yet their surroundings were visibly clear to them because the thick Yin evil force had reached a point where it emitted a faint glow. However, the light from this Yin evil force was sinister, sending shivers down one’s spine.

After a while, the two arrived in a huge cavern, its area nearly as large as an international airport.

The place was filled with strangely shaped rocks and gusts of cold wind, resembling the eighteenth level of hell—its atmosphere steeped in a chilling and frightening aura.

In the center of the vast cavern lay a slab of stone hanging in midair. On this stone slab rested a magnificently preserved female corpse—none other than Yu Sisi!

Though a millennium had passed, Yu Sisi’s corpse showed no signs of decay and remained in perfect condition, albeit covered in a deathly pallor and lacking the vital yang energy of the living.

Above her corpse, a sword hovered, exuding a terrifying suppressive force that isolated the space around the corpse from the rest of the Devil’s Cave. It appeared to be suppressing the corpse but, in truth, was protecting it.

Above the sword, within the conical rock, a blue liquid oozed out continuously, dripping onto the sword. The liquid then flowed down the blade, dropping from the sword’s tip onto the center of Yu Sisi’s forehead.

This was the very thing that had tormented Yu Sisi for a thousand years.

Lu Chuan examined the blue liquid, excitement flashing across his face. Though the liquid was still a far cry from the Extreme Yin Water, the Freezing Ice Stone producing this blue liquid could definitely be used to create the required Extreme Yin Water!

But before he could revel in his discovery, a figure enshrouded in the thick Yin evil force charged towards them.

"Yu Sisi, you actually dared to come back!" A hoarse and deep voice echoed.

Yu Sisi immediately became alert and turned to Lu Chuan, "This is the demonic monster I told you about. It was created from the Yin evil force in the Devil’s Cave after the death of the sorcerer who sealed my corpse. For nearly a thousand years, it has been absorbing the Yin evil force within the Devil’s Cave, and its power is extremely fearsome. You must be very careful!"

Lu Chuan looked puzzled and asked, "The sorcerer who sealed you? Why did he also die here?"

Yu Sisi explained, "He deceived me back then, claiming he would help me become a vengeful ghost to retain my memories forever. Only when he had killed me and was about to refine me did I realize he had no intention of helping me. Attracted by my appearance, he wanted to refine me into his ghost servant, to serve as his cauldron for practicing a heretical dual cultivation technique. Unwilling to accept this fate, I fought desperately and killed him. After his death, he became the demonic monster within this Devil’s Cave, always opposing me. Fortunately, with the protection of the Evil-Suppressing Sword, he couldn’t approach the area near the sword, and that’s how I’ve managed to survive for over a thousand years."

Lu Chuan’s face was awash with surprise. He hadn’t expected the sorcerer who turned Yu Sisi into a thousand-year vengeful ghost to be a fraud.

However, this raised many other questions in Lu Chuan’s mind, such as how Yu Sisi, newly transformed into a ghost, had managed to desperately kill the sorcerer capable of refining ghost servants?

He didn’t have time to ask more as the demonic monster had already reached them, unleashing a wave of Yin evil force in their direction.

Lu Chuan raised his hand to release a flame formed by the Sun’s True Fire, rushing towards the mass of Yin evil force.

The two collided, and the Sun’s True Fire instantly burned the Yin evil force to nothingness.

The demonic monster seemed surprised and said in a low voice, "No wonder you dare to come back, it turns out you’ve brought help. The boy looks formidable, but do you think you can get rid of me with his assistance?"

Yu Sisi snorted coldly, shouting, "Ao Wuchang, you should have died a thousand years ago. Now you are nothing but a beast lingering on by the power of the Devil’s Cave, a malevolent spirit that should not exist in this world. Today shall be your end!"

Ao Wuchang laughed loudly, saying, "Lingering on? Speaking of which, I should thank you. If you hadn’t killed me in this place, I might never have gained these powers in several lifetimes. Just give me a little more time, and I can completely ignore the deterrence of the Evil-Suppressing Sword, possess your body and then, whether it be your corpse or ghost, you will become my plaything! I’ve waited a full thousand years, and when the time comes, I will let you feel my passion and persistence!"

Yu Sisi showed a look of disgust on her face and no longer wasted words, turning her head to Lu Chuan, she said, "This guy’s power is constantly increasing. If this continues, he might soon have the power to break free from the Devil’s Cave. By then, the whole world may suffer from his existence, which is why I brought you here to eliminate him. Once you completely wipe him out, I will return Zhong Ling’er to you."

Lu Chuan nodded solemnly and said, "Don’t worry, even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would never ignore such a malevolent being."

"Be careful, I will handle this guy," he continued.

Yu Sisi nodded and replied, "You too, be careful."

It’s not that she didn’t want to help Lu Chuan, but the Yin evil force possessed by Ao Wuchang had a strong ability to corrupt. For a thousand years, she had been fighting against this corruption to prevent herself from being eroded and losing her sanity. If she joined the fight, she would easily be polluted by Ao Wuchang’s Yin evil force.

Lu Chuan was different; he had the Divine Fire of the Sun, which could burn everything, so the Yin evil force couldn’t even touch him.

Moreover, she was seriously injured at the moment, so even if she wanted to help, she couldn’t, and would instead be a burden.

Lu Chuan took to the air and confronted Ao Wuchang, who was shrouded in actualized Yin evil force. He coldly said, "A thousand-year-old thing still so vile and low, you only dirty the eyesight of others by existing in this world. Today, I shall act as the messenger of heaven, and you better be swiftly reborn!"

Ao Wuchang snorted, "Just with you? It just so happens I need a slave to bring me some tasty young girls from the outside world. Since you’ve delivered yourself to my doorstep, don’t blame me for not being polite!"

The two immediately engaged in a fierce fight.

The clash of Yin evil force with the Sun’s True Fire made the entire Devil’s Cave flicker with flashes of light and thunder, explosions ringing incessantly in the ears.

Lu Chuan relied on the Sun’s True Fire and was essentially immune to Ao Wuchang’s Yin evil force. However, the enemy’s force seemed inexhaustible, constantly flowing.

At this rate, his strength would eventually be depleted, while Ao Wuchang remained as vigorous as a dragon or tiger. Then, Lu Chuan would become nothing more than a lamb awaiting slaughter.

To resolve the matter quickly, he condensed a fireball in his palm, infusing the essence of the Divine Fire of the Sun into it and then hurling it at Ao Wuchang.

Ao Wuchang was instantly enveloped by the Divine Fire of the Sun; the Yin evil force on his body was burned away, revealing a skeleton—that must be what Ao Wuchang truly looked like at the moment.

Seeing the Yin evil force dissipate, Lu Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had successfully defeated Ao Wuchang.

But unexpectedly, a surge of Yin evil force erupted from a black spherical object inside Ao Wuchang’s skeleton, and Ao Wuchang was once again covered in a dense Yin evil force.

Ao Wuchang laughed heartily, saying, "Boy, your fire is indeed quite powerful, but as long as I’m in this Devil’s Cave, I am invincible. No matter how you burn, you cannot exhaust my power. Just wait to be worn to death by me!"

Lu Chuan frowned, not expecting this guy to be so difficult to deal with.

However, he quickly thought of something and a cold smile appeared on his face, saying, "Invincible here? I don’t think so!"

Then a golden gourd appeared in his hand.

Ao Wuchang didn’t know what Lu Chuan was planning to do, becoming more vigilant, but not overly worried.

Although he had exaggerated about being invincible in the Devil’s Cave, it wasn’t far from the truth, because inside him was a Demon Core nurtured for a thousand years.

This Demon Core had absorbed power from the Devil’s Cave for a full thousand years. The force it contained was enough for Ao Wuchang to revive a thousand or even ten thousand times. As long as the Demon Core was intact, he would remain unbeatable!

For Lu Chuan to defeat him, he would have to destroy his Demon Core, but to get close to it, he must withstand the pollution of the Yin evil force. By that time, even if Lu Chuan had the Sun’s True Fire, he could not escape the damage from the contamination, and in the end, it would be Lu Chuan himself who would die.

He looked at Lu Chuan with full confidence, saying indifferently, "Boy, don’t waste your strength. No matter what you do, you can’t defeat me!"

"Is that so?" Lu Chuan didn’t hesitate as he aimed the golden gourd at Ao Wuchang and then utilized the thief’s technique.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Chuan’s vitality withered to an extreme, paying the price required by the Thief’s Gourd.

But now, a black pearl radiating with Yin evil force appeared before him—it was indeed the one from inside Ao Wuchang!
