Star Farming, the eldest lady relies on alchemy to counterattack

Chapter 453 Convergence
"Didn't you become famous at a young age and have experienced countless battles? You should have killed an SSS-level star beast, right? Why do you still look so ignorant?" Ning Xuan glanced at Di Youlin. She could see the excitement in Di Youlin's eyes, and he had an expression that showed he was still not satisfied.

“That’s different. On the Starfield Battlefield, there’s no such close contact. Moreover, this beast’s strength far exceeds that of an ordinary SSS-level beast. It’s as if its strength has been suppressed by this secret realm.” Di Youlin wiped the corner of his mouth with his other hand, leaving a streak of crimson blood on his fair face.

Ning Xuan saw Qinghe leading Zeng Yu and the others to dig out the blood core of the strange beast. Soon, Qinghe brought over a bright red blood core the size of an adult's fist.

"So beautiful!" Ning Xuan couldn't help but exclaim in her heart.

The blood core was an irregular hexahedron shape, crystal clear and dazzling. It was the first time she had ever seen the blood core of an SSS-level alien beast. She could feel the immense energy contained within it from afar.

“Master, very few SSS-level star beasts can be captured on the interstellar battlefield. Even if we win, most star beasts of this level will explode and die, and their blood cores will naturally not be preserved. Only in a place like the Chaos God Realm can we suppress the self-destruction of alien beasts and obtain blood cores of this level.” Qinghe held the blood core in both hands and presented it to Ning Xuan.

The blood cores inside high-level beasts contain powerful energy, and each one is of immeasurable value.

After the first killing, there was a second and a third. In less than two days, Ning Xuan's spatial button had more than a dozen high-quality blood cores.

On the third day, Ning Xuan met up with Ying Yaoshi. Ning Xuan was able to sense Ying Yaoshi's general location through the mental link channel.

When Ning Xuan found Ying Yaoshi, he was in the form of a four-winged serpent fighting a horned dragon of similarly enormous size in a fierce battle that shook the heavens and the earth.

The colossal beast, several meters tall, had four wings that unfurled in mid-air, resembling a black lightning bolt tearing through the sky. The scales covering its entire body were not pure black, but rather shimmered with a deep, dark purple luster, like the undercurrents surging at the bottom of a deep pool. Each scale was the size of a palm, with sharp, blade-like edges, layered and interwoven, emitting a fine, metallic scraping sound as its body twisted.

The snake's head had a pair of vertical pupils that resembled burning flames, a mixture of golden and dark red. The moment the pupils contracted, the surrounding air seemed to freeze. It hovered in mid-air, surrounded by a faint black mist, within which tiny arcs of electricity could be vaguely seen.

Compared to the almost intact body of the four-winged serpent, the horned dragon was tattered and broken. Its horns had been severed at the root, and there was a huge bloody hole in its abdomen, from which blood was still flowing.

One section of the spine on the horned dinosaur's back had completely collapsed, and even its eyes looked dull and lifeless.

"Roar!" The horned dragon roared in grief and anger, then turned and charged towards Ning Xuan.

This horned dragon was none other than Ying Taihe. As soon as Ning Xuan appeared, he keenly sensed that Ying Yaoshi was momentarily flustered. Recalling the intelligence he had received earlier, he immediately guessed Ning Xuan's identity and wanted to take her hostage to find a chance to escape.

However, he soon realized that this was a mistake. Di Youlin and Qinghe transformed into their beast forms at the same time and stood in front of Ning Xuan. When Ying Taihe fought with the two of them, he was so angry that he vomited blood. Although the two were young, they both had SSS-level combat power. He was no match for them at all.

With a soft "poof," Ying Taihe felt a chill on his neck. The next second, he saw his head fly up. The head, still in the form of a horned dragon, was ferocious and terrifying. A spurt of blood gushed out, and the huge horned dragon body collapsed to the ground.

Di Youlin hurriedly dodged, but the gushing blood still soaked the corner of his clothes. Di Youlin glared at Ying Yaoshi, who had returned to human form, with great displeasure, and with a look of disgust, he used his finger as a knife to cut off a piece of the blood-stained corner of his clothes.

Ying Yaoshi was dressed in a black casual suit with gold patterns on the cuffs, hem, and collar. The patterns were faintly visible as he moved, making him look very exquisite. The suit was straight and well-tailored, which accentuated his broad shoulders and long legs, making him look like he had a perfect figure.

"Greetings, my lord." Ying Yaoshi bowed slightly to Ning Xuan.

"I'm fine, but you seem to be not so good." Ning Xuan frowned slightly as she looked at Ying Yaoshi; his aura seemed off.

"Pfft..." As soon as Ning Xuan finished speaking, Ying Yaoshi spat out a mouthful of blood. His originally normal face turned pale instantly, and his tall and upright body swayed and fell towards Ning Xuan.

A black vine sprouted from Ning Xuan's palm, wrapping around Ying Yaoshi's body and pulling him into her arms. She placed her fingers on Ying Yaoshi's pulse, frowned, and then immediately took out a golden pill and a bottle of seven-colored potion from her spatial storage, and poured them all down Ying Yaoshi's throat.

"Form a defensive array." Ning Xuan gave the order, and Di Youlin and Qinghe, along with Zeng Yu and the others, immediately got to work, activating the protective shield and forming a defensive array to guard the surrounding area.

Ying Yaoshi didn't know what he had done. He looked fine on the outside, but his condition inside his body was terrible, especially in his mental sea, where black mist spread and caused chaos.

Although Ying Yaoshi maintained his human form, his eyes were still the vertical pupils he had in his beast form, with black mist appearing and disappearing amidst the flowing light.

After drinking the medicine given to him by Ning Xuan, Ying Yaoshi knew that there would be no immediate danger. Once his tense mind relaxed, he felt a splitting headache.

"Xuanxuan, my head hurts so much!" Ying Yaoshi looked at Ning Xuan with a pained expression, buried his head in Ning Xuan's neck, and murmured softly.

“If I hadn’t noticed that something was wrong with you and risked coming here to find you, you would probably be in grave danger this time.” Ning Xuan sighed, gently stroking Ying Yaoshi’s hair, and inserted a four-inch-long gold needle into the Baihui acupoint on the top of his head.

Ying Yaoshi closed his eyes, his pale face showing signs of fragility.

Advancing to the Transcendent Realm would bring about a drastic change in combat power, so he couldn't allow Ying Taihe to successfully advance.

He knew, of course, that even without his interference, Ying Taihe might not succeed. However, he dared not gamble. If Ying Taihe succeeded in advancing, he and those close to him would face annihilation.

"I'm sorry, Xuanxuan, I didn't expect you to come. I've dragged you into this." Ying Yaoshi felt very relieved as he smelled Ning Xuan's scent.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, looked up at Di Youlin and the others on the outside, and asked in shock, "Wait a minute, Xuanxuan, didn't you only have one key to the Chaos God Realm? How did the others get in?"
