Chapter Seventy-Four: Letting Go with a Flick of the Wrist

  Walk away with a flick of the wrist

  "In that case, I must not let you out. Dark Flame Dragon predecessor, if I'm correct, your cultivation is in the spatial realm, and you're cruel and bloodthirsty. If I release you, you'll definitely become a threat to my people's safety and the world's well-being. I will be responsible for the entire human race's downfall. This sin, I cannot bear. Therefore, I must not let you out. Your treasure, I also do not dare to accept."

  Hearing Zhou Yuan say this, the Dark Flame Dragon felt that it had been played. Not only did it pay out a precious item, but in the end, it still hadn't released itself, truly not worth it.

  The dark flame dragon roared in anger, "You little one, do you know the consequences of refusing me? I will tear you to pieces."

  Feeling the wrath of the Dark Flame Dragon, Zhou Yuan instead smiled, "I naturally know that if I'm not mistaken, although you're very powerful, you can't attack me. With this solitary tomb's suppression, your strength is fundamentally unable to be displayed, and you can't cause any harm to outsiders."

  "Nonsense, I'll kill you right now! Since you can't let me out, I'll make you die!!" The Dark Flame Dragon let out a furious roar, and then a black air rolled out from its mouth, rolling towards Zhou Yuan. However, the black air stopped before it even reached the ground."

  On the solitary grave, a series of talismans were emitted, which then wrapped around the air current, completely dispersing it.

  It's clear that the seal on the lone grave is working, just as Yuan guessed. As long as the lone grave exists, the Dark Flame Dragon's power is suppressed to death and cannot come out, posing no harm to outsiders.

  "Youngster, you really won't save me? Think carefully, the treasure on my body is enough to make you a hegemon, with endless women, great power, and unparalleled glory. You must think clearly!!!" The Dark Flame Dragon saw that he couldn't inflict any harm on Zhou Yuan, so he didn't attack again. Instead, he wanted to hold onto his last shred of hope and let Zhou Yuan release him.

  Zhou Yuan slowly shook his head, "No need to say more, I'm not going to let you out. People from different clans must have different hearts. Even if there are many treasures, I don't have the life to enjoy them. I believe that as soon as you escape, the first thing you will do is kill me."

  "What you said is not wrong, after I go out, I will definitely kill you. My Dark Flame Dragon cannot be sealed and suppressed here forever. As long as there is a day when I can get out, it will be your death date. At that time, even if you hide in the ends of the earth, there will be no place for you to escape." The Dark Flame Dragon saw that Zhou Yuan's mind was made up, and saying anything more would be useless, so he threatened Zhou Yuan instead.

  Zhou Yuan didn't care about the treasure, it was impossible to get it today. After all, the Dark Flame Dragon had a strong desire to kill him and wouldn't let him obtain the treasure. Moreover, this place was very dangerous. Zhou Yuan didn't want to provoke the Dark Flame Dragon further. He didn't know if the dragon had any hidden tricks up its sleeve. If it did, Zhou Yuan would be in danger. Although their strengths seemed evenly matched on the surface, and the Dark Flame Dragon couldn't escape, Zhou Yuan still felt a sense of danger.

  "Since the treasure can't be obtained today, let's forget it. Life is more important. This treasure map, only I have it, others shouldn't be able to reach this place, otherwise, the Dark Flame Dragon would have been rescued by someone else already. As long as I have this map, one day I will come back, and when that time comes, my strength will be sufficient, and the treasure of this place will still belong to me, Zhou Yuan."

  Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan's heart suddenly opened up and he was no longer obsessed with these treasures, because here, sooner or later would be his, when his strength was strong enough, it would be the day he came back.

  But today, Zhou Yuan wasn't completely empty-handed. The yin-yang mixed cave was a great place for cultivation, and Zhou Yuan had been eager to make a breakthrough. Today's trip out had indeed been extremely perilous, and he had almost not made it back. Now that the sky was gradually darkening, if he didn't return soon, Qin Mingyue would likely start worrying. Zhou Yuan wasn't someone who liked to let others worry about him, so he decided to head back to Tongtian City.

  Zhou Yuan left, no matter how much the Dark Flame Dragon spoke kindly behind him, intimidated and threatened, Zhou Yuan did not look back. He carefully identified the direction and quickly headed towards Tongtian City.

  In the tavern, Qin Mingyue had already woken up from his cultivation a long time ago. As expected, he hadn't broken through to the Killing Life Realm. Even with a cultivation technique, it might take a very long time to successfully break through the realm, maybe a month, maybe a year, or even longer.

  The boundary of the killing calamity is not easy to break through, and Qin Mingyue also dare not easily rush forward, because wanting to break through the boundary of the killing calamity requires crossing the calamity, the killing calamity, as the name suggests, may bring about a disaster that kills lives.

  This calamity will eventually bring about the impact of the seven elemental forces, and only by successfully crossing it can one take a crucial step forward on the path of cultivation.

  "Qin brother, your strength has improved again." Zhou Yuan returned to the wine house and felt that Qin Mingyue had already completed his cultivation and was waiting for him, so Zhou Yuan entered Qin Mingyue's room wanting to communicate with him.

  Qin Mingyue saw Zhou Yuan enter and at first didn't notice him. Then, he carefully examined Zhou Yuan's cultivation and was immediately shocked and lost his composure.

  "Zhou Yuan... ... You... ... You broke through... ... Broke through to the Golden Core realm? Could it be that, just as you thought, a Golden Core was formed with 99 Dao symbols sealing and locking it?" Qin Mingyue's voice trembled slightly as she spoke.

  Zhou Yuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, I just broke through, the process was too dangerous, almost didn't make it back, and wouldn't have been able to see my brother again."

  "What's going on? Is someone trying to kill you or what?"

  "When I broke through, I was still thinking too simply and didn't expect the 99 talismans to be so difficult to condense. I almost didn't have enough yuan power and exploded in a blaze of energy. Luckily, at the critical moment, a mysterious person lent a hand and provided me with unlimited yuan power, allowing me to overcome this hurdle and even gain good fortune from misfortune, successfully condensing the 99 talismans into a golden elixir."

  The matter of the Black Mamba within Zhou Yuan, he wasn't prepared to tell Qin Mingyue. It wasn't that he didn't trust Qin Mingyue, but rather Zhou Yuan felt that keeping some secrets on his own body was ultimately a good thing.

  So he fabricated a lie about having mysterious help to deceive Qin Mingyue.

  Qin Mingyue also seemed to believe Zhou Yuan, and she gave him a white eye, saying, "What do you think? Ninety-nine talismans are not that easy to refine. If it were really simple, wouldn't there be many masters in the world who could form this heavenly gold elixir? I didn't expect that when you were in crisis, this person not only didn't take advantage of your danger but also lent a helping hand. You must get along well with this person and let me see what kind of person is so kind-hearted. This kind of person can definitely become a good brother."

  Zhou Yuan shook his head, "He's gone, I don't even know his name."

  Qin Mingyue sighed, "Alas, what a pity! Such a chivalrous person, I really want to get acquainted with him."

  "Hmm, that's not all. Later on, there were three Golden Dan realm experts who wanted to kill me, but they were all beheaded by me in one swing, and I even obtained two Xuan-level artifacts, which can now be sold for a good price."

  "What? You just broke through and killed three fellow boundary mages, isn't that a bit too exaggerated?"

  "One of them was a person at the peak of the Golden Elixir realm, similar to you, just a little bit short of breaking through to the Killing Life Tribulation realm, but still got killed by me."

  Qin Mingyue finally lost her temper, "Indeed, your cultivation of the thunder element power is a natural talent, destined to make you break through and become the strongest existence in the same realm. It's really frustrating to compare with others..."

  Fresh flowers, everyone must not be lazy, after watching must have quality, must collect and throw fresh flowers.
