The Most Powerful Bodyguard

Chapter 1356

Boom——

Yang Yan only felt a huge force of recoil making his arm go numb, and the Immortal Piercing Spear almost flew out of his hand.

One second...

Two seconds...

Three seconds...

Roar!

Accompanied by a roar, a large amount of blood rain fell like raindrops.

And almost at the same moment, four other handprints accurately landed on top of Yang Yan’s head.

Fortunately, Yang Yan’s body had long since recovered to its peak state, and although it was extremely painful, it did not shake the foundation.

Just as these four forces entered his body without having time to wreak havoc, a brilliant golden light suddenly burst forth, followed by four tragic howls, and everything vanished into smoke.

Rumble——

The entire space trembled violently, and a gentle light suddenly appeared in the Void.

Yang Yan focused his gaze, and there appeared a passage faintly emitting spatial fluctuations.

At the same time, as the entire space trembled, the surrounding pillars continued to collapse, except for the one in the middle that stood firm like a mountain.

Yang Yan couldn’t help but glance towards the direction of the Blood Pool, only to see that half of the pool water had disappeared, and there was still a body lying inside.

But this time, it had turned into the form of a baby, finely carved, with purple aura swirling around it.

He hesitated for a moment and finally suppressed the urge to deliver a fatal blow, turning around and rushing into the Space Passage.

However, he didn’t notice that at the instant he disappeared, the baby who had fallen asleep suddenly crawled up, a strange smile appearing at the corner of its mouth.

...

At the entrance of the misty sea in the Vast Sea.

Li Cangjun led the disciples of the Li Family anxiously watching inside.

He had occasionally received news that a Netherworld Ship appeared deep within the mist, and Yang Yan had gone missing.

Although such news was suspicious, possibly being an enemy’s plot, Li Cangjun still wanted to find out the truth.

He was grateful for everything Yang Yan had done for the Li Family and took the risk of bringing people to search for him.

Even though he knew very well that they probably couldn’t be of any help given their cultivation, he still wanted to put his heart at ease by doing his part.

In the darkness of the mist, there were also people waiting, ready to act.

A golden light blossomed in the Void like fireworks, and Yang Yan appeared before everyone with a magnificent momentum.

He had actually come out.

Moreover, his cultivation had evidently advanced.

But the next moment, an unbelievable scene unfolded; Yang Yan, who had been suspended in mid-air, suddenly staggered and fell straight toward the ground.

Li Cangjun then realized, although Yang Yan appeared majestic, there wasn’t a bit of True Qi in his body.

Li Cangjun quickly flashed and caught him before he hit the ground, asking with concern, "Mr. Yang, what happened to you?"

"My True Qi is all gone," Yang Yan said with a bitter smile, yet it was as if he was talking to himself, "But to be able to return is truly a blessing!"

Even though he felt regretful not to leave here now, with his previous experiences, Yang Yan was confident he could successfully traverse the mist and find a way to break out of the cage.

Just as he finished speaking, several cultivators rose up from the darkness, their killing intent sweeping towards Yang Yan madly.

"Everyone! This is the time for our Thousand Feather Sect to seek revenge. Prepare to die!"

Yang Yan coldly laughed in his heart.

Like a tiger fallen from a high place being bullied by dogs?

Absolutely not.

Although he had lost his True Qi, his physical body remained, and he still had a collection of Magical Treasure weapons. These small fry were something he could still handle.

Moreover, Li Cangjun was not someone to be trifled with.

The moment these people made a move, he had already stood up and went to meet them.

Yang Yan sighed inwardly, and his body suddenly emanated a violent aura of bloodline, the Flawless Divine Body’s talent completely unleashed.

Boom——

His fists lightly clenched, shaking the very space around him.

The next moment, Yang Yan rose again, surpassing Li Cangjun with ease, and enveloped in a violent aura, he struck down fiercely on the cultivators.

Roar——

With a punch, a gigantic golden dragon seemed to faintly form within the fist wind, with extraordinary momentum.

Just with this face-to-face encounter, the blood of the remnants of the Thousand Feather Sect once again scattered upon this land...

Ten days later, in a desolate sea area of the Vast Sea, at a place named Gravel Island’s Ancient Tree Village, Yang Yan was meditating inside a simple house built on the cliff.

Suddenly, Yang Yan opened his eyes and sighed, "Sigh! So many days have passed, yet my cultivation still hasn’t recovered. Am I destined to spend my entire life here?"

When Yang Yan faced off against that stunning woman, he felt completely overwhelmed.

At the critical moment, fortunately, the power left by that golden light old man in his body helped him to turn peril into safety.

He then used the Immortal Piercing Spear he previously obtained to achieve final victory and successfully escaped the Ghost Ship with the help of the Space Passage.

However, in doing so, he lost his Spiritual Power and only received an unexpected enhancement of the physical body.

He had already verified that with the current robustness of his physical body, he could essentially harness at least eighty percent of the Flawless Divine Body’s talent.

Yang Yan didn’t wish to give up just yet, with the mist dissipating, lasting up to a year, and countless adventurers fighting within it, this was a perfect time for him to calm down and attempt to recover his strength.

In fact, after meeting Li Cangjun and others that day, he only stayed for two days before coming to this solitary island to understand.

Through seven days of effort, he indeed found a direction.

At present, his body wasn’t entirely devoid of power; any hard-won cultivation would instantly be consumed by the lingering Immortal Power.

During this time, Yang Yan couldn’t recall how many refined pills he had consumed. Although it didn’t solve the fundamental issue, he did discover a pattern.

Only top-tier pills containing Spiritual Power could overwhelm his body with power briefly, preventing that Immortal Power from absorbing it in time.

Then he could manipulate this Spiritual Power to gradually consume the Immortal Power.

Though the pace was exceedingly slow, Immortal Power was ultimately limited, and he believed its full depletion was merely a matter of time.

Gathering his thoughts and contemplating silently once more, Yang Yan finally stood up and walked out of the room.

Outside the room, an old man was drying the caught fish on a rack to preserve the food longer.

The old man in the yard heard the sound of the door and turned around to see Yang Yan, smiling kindly, and asked with concern, "Xiao Yang, have you recovered? Quickly, go back inside and lie down. I’ll stew fish soup for you after finishing with these fish."

Upon hearing the old man’s words, Yang Yan gently nodded and hurried forward to help the old man with the fish drying.

The old man’s name was Lin Hai, and he originally had two sons who all perished in a storm two years ago.

Yang Yan came here because a mark existed on an incomplete map he had, regarding this place.

Yang Yan didn’t know what purpose the map creator had, but until his power was restored, he indeed needed a secluded place to cultivate. Thus, he bid farewell to Li Cangjun and the others and came directly here.
