Chapter 816: Chapter 416 Demon Saint’s Fall, Jiang Yuan’s Capabilities!_3 Chapter 816: Chapter 416 Demon Saint’s Fall, Jiang Yuan’s Capabilities!_3 “If I hinder your absorption of the Cave Heaven Origin, it would be a disservice to my trial!”

“Rest assured in your cultivation! Your safety is in your sister’s hands!”

“I did promise to protect you!”

Hearing Ye Chanxi’s firm tone, Jiang Yuan slowly nodded.

“Very well then!”

“I’ll leave my safety to you!”

“As for the treasures inside Jade Lake, don’t worry, I will definitely help you snatch them!”

Ye Chanxi smiled, “Alright! Don’t delay any longer!”

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, ready to take away the corpse of the demon saint.

Ye Chanxi quickly said, “Wait, I’ve never tried the roasted meat of a demon saint!”

“Leave the corpse of this demon saint to me. I’ll do the roasting while you concentrate on your cultivation!”

“That works!” Jiang Yuan said with a nod.

He raised his hand, and with ease, compressed the enormous body of the Saint Eagle corpse into an ordinary size.

This was a headless eagle clan physical body.

Its body was covered with dark brown feathers.

Even though it had died a while ago, the aura emanating from its body was still oppressive.

Faint traces of the demon saint’s aura leaked out.

The blood that flowed from the wounds was filled with a mysterious energy, tinged with streaks of Black Sha.

It slowly trickled down on the white jade-colored ground.

This ground gave Jiang Yuan a sinister feeling; as the blood flowed, it also gradually disappeared.

It seemed as if some terrifying creature beneath the ground was devouring the trickling blood.

Jiang Yuan glanced twice, found nothing, and tossed it out of his mind.

The secrets of this world were many.

Especially in such places, the secrets were even more abundant.

If one were curious about everything and tried to explore their origins, it would be no different from courting death.

After compressing the Eagle Wing corpse, Jiang Yuan waved his hand.

The headless body of the Saint Eagle then swept towards the feet of Ye Chanxi.

“Then I’ll leave it to you! Enjoy your roasting!”

“Mhm!” Ye Chanxi nodded her head.

With a wave of her hand, she summoned the True Fire of the Great Sun.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yuan also sat cross-legged on the ground.

Boom–
At the movement of his thoughts, the void instantly roared.

Then, the space began to warp and deform, twisting into a vortex toward his location.

The area around him instantly dimmed and then became pitch black.

Simultaneously, the boundless Cave Heaven Origin was rapidly devoured by him.

However, Jiang Yuan sensed that compared to the Cave Heaven Origin dissipating around him, he could absorb less than a tenth.

Feeling this change, he sighed helplessly in his heart, feeling a little regretful.

If he could fully absorb it, the origin left behind by a fallen Second Heaven demon saint would have been enough to significantly advance his cultivation.

Breaking through to the Seventh Level of the Dongtian Realm would be easy.

He might even achieve two consecutive breakthroughs, directly reaching the Eighth Level of the Dongtian Realm.

But with the current efficiency, it was uncertain.

Afterward, he steadied his mind, dispersing the distracting thoughts within his head.

Then he fully activated the Swallowing Divine Body, beginning to absorb the dissipating Cave Heaven Origin of this place.

At this moment.

Ye Chanxi also raised the Solar True Fire.

She plucked the feathers off the headless Saint Eagle and then suspended it in mid-air to roast with the Solar True Fire.

Time passed slowly.

…

Half an hour later.

Ye Chanxi glanced at Jiang Yuan, noting that the dissipation of the Cave Heaven Origin had not yet ceased.

Jiang Yuan was still continually devouring the ambient Cave Heaven Origin.

The Saint Eagle she was roasting in front of her had turned golden and crisp, with golden oils continuously dripping down.

At the same time, a rich scent of meat wafted through the air.

Ye Chanxi had trouble swallowing her saliva.

“Why does it smell so delicious!”

After speaking, she swallowed her saliva again.

Suddenly.

Her eyebrows furrowed, and she looked in the direction from which they had come.

“Is someone coming?”

She glanced at Jiang Yuan again, her figure vanishing from the spot in an instant.

…

A moment later.

Elsewhere.

A man was spitting blood nonstop as he fled at high speed.

“Who is this madwoman exactly?”

“What the hell is she up to?”

“And her strength–how can it be so formidable?”

“…”

The man ranted as he rushed towards the direction of the South Heaven Gate.

A dozen breaths later.

He looked back and saw calmness behind him.

He then stopped and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

“It looks like that madwoman didn’t chase after me?”

“Why did she attack me out of the blue? What was the reason?”

The man fell into deep thought.

A little while later.

Murmuring to himself, he said: “Could there be some kind of fortune in the direction I was heading? Is she preventing me from going forward to stop me from discovering it?”

The more he murmured, the brighter the light in his eyes became.

“Yes! It must be so!”

“Why else would she attack me without a word?”

“What’s the reason for that?”

“There’s no reason!”

“It must be for that reason!”

He then raised his head to look in a certain direction.

“It seems I should go find Brother Yang. With Brother Yang’s capabilities and my cooperation, we shouldn’t fear that madwoman!”

…

On the other side.

Ye Chanxi returned to Jiang Yuan’s side.

She first glanced at Jiang Yuan and, seeing that everything around him was as usual, immediately let go of her worries.

Then, she approached the fragrant Saint Eagle and continued to flip and roast it until it was thoroughly cooked.

Time once again slipped away quietly.

With every breath, Jiang Yuan could feel the growth of his cultivation within his body.

The Cave Heaven Origin became even more profound, and his dharma-power continued to strengthen.

He could also smell the rich aroma emanating from next to him.

That was the scent of the Saint Eagle’s meat nearly ready.

But sensing that the Cave Heaven Origin was still dissipating around him, he immediately suppressed the impulse stirring within him.
