Chapter 1740: Time Difference

Not far away, there was a plant half a man's height.

On the plant, seven or eight greenish-white fruits hung, unmistakably Silverwing Earth Spirit Fruits.

Duan Peng and the others went up and collected all the Silverwing Earth Spirit Fruits without any hindrance.

Then, they walked deeper into the cave and indeed found a large patch of Green Vine Jasper Flowers.

Duan Peng sighed with emotion, "Brother Ye is truly a genius, knowing the habits of these spirit herbs like the back of his hand!"

Yu Jing said, "He could even cure the poison of the Fire Cloud Ice Scale Insect; what's this compared to that?"

Duan Peng nodded, "Everyone, be prepared. Beware of sneak attacks from the Dark Night Poison Bats!"

The others nodded in agreement and prepared the powder Ye Yuan had given them.

By now, they had complete faith in Ye Yuan's strength.

If Ye Yuan said the powder was useful, then it definitely was.

Otherwise, the danger of these Dark Night Poison Bats was no less than that of the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape; how would they dare to act?

Having prepared themselves, they began to collect the Green Vine Jasper Flowers.

Just then, the sound of fluttering wings came from within the cave.

A dense swarm of bats, dark and menacing, viciously lunged at them.

Each bat was the size of a human head, ferocious and hideous in appearance.

Scatter!

Duan Peng suddenly roared and threw the powder Ye Yuan had made into the air; the others followed suit.

Squeak, squeak...

The originally aggressive Dark Night Poison Bats suddenly let out piercing screams.

Those bats that had been contaminated by the powder struggled for a moment and quickly dissolved into pools of blood.

The other Dark Night Poison Bats also acted as if facing a great enemy, circling overhead, not daring to approach.

Seeing this, the group was dumbfounded.

"This powder is so powerful! Fourth-rank beasts are wiped out in an instant!"

"It's like a corpse-dissolving powder, but its power is many times greater!"

Duan Peng was secretly alarmed and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up!"

The others dared not delay and quickly gathered all the Green Vine Jasper Flowers.

The Dark Night Poison Bats watched helplessly as they worked, not daring to approach.

The powder lingering in the air was a deadly threat to them.

After collecting all the Green Vine Jasper Flowers, Duan Peng and the others hastily retreated.

As they exited the cave, a terrifyingly powerful aura suddenly swept in from afar.

Duan Peng's face changed drastically, and he exclaimed, "Not good, it's the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape! Could it be..."

Yu Jing's tears streamed down, and she shook her head in disbelief, "No! Brother Ye couldn't have died!"

Duan Peng said solemnly, "This is no time for that. If the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape catches up, we're dead! Run!"

The others dared not linger, pushing their speed to the limit to shake off the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape.

Roar!

Roar!

The roar of the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape grew closer, its speed extreme.

Duan Peng turned to look, and his heart sank.

The Purple-Eyed Demon Ape was now incredibly狂暴, its huge eyes emitting a mesmerizing purple light—a sign that it had reached the limit of its berserk state.

In this state, the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape's strength was most terrifying!

After all, even Ye Yuan couldn't shake off the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape, let alone these people.

Among the four, Yu Jing was the weakest and slowest.

In a flash, the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape had caught up.

Suddenly, Yu Jing stopped, looking at the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape with determination, "You beast, you killed Brother Ye! I'll fight you to the death!"

With that, she mustered all her strength and struck at the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape with her sword.

Yu Jing knew this was a suicide attack, but she no longer wanted to run.

Seeing this, Duan Peng and the others were greatly alarmed.

Yet he also showed a resolute expression, gritting his teeth and saying, "Damn it, I'll fight you to the death too! Everyone, attack together, avenge Brother Ye!"

With that, he suddenly burst forth, arriving before the others and charging at the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape.

However, the demon ape in its purple-eyed state was truly terrifying in aura.

Before they even got close, the four of them felt immense pressure, as if their movements had slowed.

Roar!

The Purple-Eyed Demon Ape swept its iron arm, sending a terrifying palm wind toward them!

Before the palm wind even arrived, it had already knocked the four of them off balance.

This was not a battle on the same level at all!

The Purple-Eyed Demon Ape's slap was too fast, reaching the four's faces in an instant.

If that palm landed, the four would surely die without a chance of survival!

At the critical moment, a figure suddenly emerged from the void, striking straight at the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape's eyes!

This was so sudden that even the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape did not react in time.

But the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape's reaction speed was not slow; its other iron palm directly slapped toward that figure.

Pfft!

Roar!

Duan Peng and the other three were sent flying, and Ye Yuan, who had emerged from the void, was also sent flying.

However, the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape's eye was injured by Ye Yuan's sharp sword qi, and it howled in pain.

Stay back!

Ye Yuan spat out a large mouthful of blood and shouted harshly.

Seeing that Ye Yuan was not dead, the four were overjoyed.

Hearing Ye Yuan's roar, they suddenly snapped back to reality and fled far away.

Ye Yuan forcefully suppressed his internal injuries, which had been aggravated again, and put away the Junyi Sword.

Taking advantage of the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape's cries of pain, the Taiji Diagram suddenly appeared in his hand!

In the distance, Duan Peng and the others were stunned speechless at the sight.

"This... this is the legendary Great Dao alchemy! My god!" Duan Peng exclaimed.

In the center of the Taiji Diagram, a pill gradually took shape.

Earlier, when the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape was chasing Ye Yuan and was about to catch up, it suddenly turned around and headed back toward the cave.

Seeing this, Ye Yuan was greatly alarmed, knowing that the creature was highly intelligent and had realized it was a decoy.

Ye Yuan thought to himself that this was bad; at this speed, the others would probably have a hard time escaping.

He knew that this battle was probably unavoidable.

He had originally thought the decoy would succeed, but who would have guessed that the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape's intelligence far exceeded his expectations.

But with his current strength, he was no match for the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape.

In desperation, Ye Yuan vanished into the Boundary Suppression Stele space and had Ning Tianping urge the Purple Extreme Hall to fly toward the cave.

Inside the Boundary Suppression Stele space, Ye Yuan used the recently obtained Nether Dark Fragrant Flower to begin alchemy.

Originally, Ning Tianping had been quietly urging the Purple Extreme Hall, following Yu Jing and the others, waiting for Ye Yuan to succeed in refining.

But who would have expected that at this moment, Yu Jing would turn around and fight the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape head-on.

With no other choice, Ye Yuan had to abandon alchemy and, in the blink of an eye, launch a sneak attack on the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape.

However, the pill was only half-refined; if it couldn't be completed, they would still die.

This injury was not fatal to the Purple-Eyed Demon Ape!

So Ye Yuan directly extracted the medicine embryo from the Xuanhuang Cauldron and began Great Dao alchemy!

Due to the time difference, Ye Yuan's pill was already at the final stage.

In just this short moment, Ye Yuan shouted "Condense!" and the pill was finally successfully refined!
