Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 911: Chapter 911: The Unspeakable Taboo (Eighth Update)

Hua Xin widened her eyes.

In a hurry: "Jiang Fan! Can you act more like a human?"

Jiang Fan gave a slight smile.

Since he decided to pick, he naturally picked more.

Once outside, it’s best if he can use them; if not, he would feed them to Hua Xin.

They would not go to waste.

Everything was ready.

He looked around.

After leaving the Forbidden Land, all senses became significantly clearer.

He could even clearly perceive a faint spatial fluctuation far away.

Without a doubt.

That’s where the spatial array was located.

Locking onto the direction, he held the Yin Marrow Talisman in his hand and said, "Chaoge, stay close to me."

Xia Chaoge nodded, "I know what to do."

She moved closer to Jiang Fan.

Skillfully linked arms with Jiang Fan.

Uh—

Jiang Fan was taken aback for a moment.

I asked you to follow, not to cling to me.

Just as he was about to push her away.

Suddenly.

A fierce aura rapidly approached.

Compared to the previous Double-headed Hellhound, it seemed even stronger.

Hua Xin’s expression tightened, "Be careful."

"It’s a Two Aperture Hell Creature."

"Equivalent to your Second-stage Nascent Soul."

Jiang Fan’s eyes became grave.

Under his gaze.

A Double-headed Hellhound, exuding strong Yin Qi, came toward Jiang Fan.

It was evidently a size larger than the Double-headed Hellhound they had seen before.

Exuding a fierce aura reaching the sky!

Its speed was too fast.

Creating a series of afterimages.

One moment it was on the horizon, the next it was a hundred feet away.

It opened its bloody mouth wide, blood-red eyes displaying a menacing look.

With a lift of its paw, it could easily strike down the two of them.

Jiang Fan’s expression was serious, he decisively activated the Yin Marrow Talisman, sending powerful Yin Qi towards it.

The giant beast seemed to sense something.

Its blood-red eyes suddenly looked at the Yin Marrow Talisman in Jiang Fan’s hand.

The vicious devouring look instantly turned cautious.

It clawed the ground with its rear legs, seemingly afraid, but unwilling to give up the prey in front of it.

In the end, it conquered its instincts.

Slowly backed away.

Jiang Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "The Tiger Talisman is indeed useful."

"But, its deterrent effect seems much weaker on stronger creatures."

The original Double-headed Hellhound gave up chasing Jiang Fan quickly.

This one hesitated for a while.

Hua Xin said, "That’s of course."

"The stronger the hell creature, the stronger its resistance to the Yin Marrow Talisman."

"Once it’s above three apertures, the effect is negligible."

"Of course, Three Aperture Hell Creatures rarely show up."

"Even two apertures are scarce."

Rarely?

Jiang Fan felt the Yin Marrow Talisman in his hand offered no guarantee of safety anymore.

If he were to encounter a Four Aperture Hell Creature, wouldn’t he be in trouble?

Looking at the Double-headed Hellhound, about to retreat.

Jiang Fan had a flash of inspiration.

He took out the black bell.

He never knew what this item was for.

It didn’t seem like a Spiritual Artifact or an item with symbolic significance like the Yin Marrow Talisman.

Encountering a Double-headed Hellhound now, why not test it?

He shook the bell.

A slightly piercing jingling sound reached his ears.

The Double-headed Hellhound, already turning to leave, suddenly turned back.

Its two heads’ eyes blazed with terrifying blood-red light.

The tail behind its back rose and wagged continuously.

Showing its excitement and enthusiasm.

It lowered its neck, wagged its tail, and moved toward Jiang Fan, seemingly trying to get close to him.

But it was also wary of the Yin Marrow Talisman in his hand, not daring to act rashly.

Hua Xin glanced at the bell in Jiang Fan’s hand.

Her eyes nearly popped out.

"Ah! Why is the Hell Soul Bell in your hand?"

"Damn!"

"I came to the Ninth Layer, searched for countless times!"

"Nearly got killed by powerful creatures here several times, yet found no hint."

"Where did you get it from?"

At just one glance,

Hua Xin’s defenses broke right then and there.

Even the perfect guise of Concubine Yunxia she maintained started fluctuating.

It was due to emotional fluctuations so intense, she couldn’t maintain it!

Uh—

Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment, "This bell is very special?"

In truth, seeing the Two Aperture Double-headed Hellhound so ingratiating, he guessed the bell was extraordinary.

What he didn’t expect was Hua Xin’s reaction to be so intense.

Hua Xin’s pitch-black eyes stayed glued to the black bell.

"This is the Hell Soul Bell!"

"Back in the day, a war erupted in Hell Realm for this bell."

"It spanned from Hell Realm all the way to your Central Earth World!"

"Ultimately, with such a commotion, it incurred the discontent of an Ancient Saint from Central Earth, who suppressed our Asura Clan in the Central Earth World."

Hua Xin’s simple sentences.

But it stirred up a tempest in Jiang Fan’s mind.

Hell Realm?

Central Earth World?

An Ancient Saint intervened?

What’s the background of Hua Xin?

She knows that much?

Moreover.

The Hell Soul Bell in his hand is so defiant against heaven?

Even sparking a civil war in Hell Realm and affecting Central Earth World?

"What use is this bell?" Jiang Fan asked.

Hua Xin’s eyes were filled with yearning, "It can become..."

Suddenly.

Her voice was abruptly cut off.

As if some invisible power silenced her.

Hua Xin was taken aback for a moment and then became serious, "I can’t speak of it."

"Though I know in my heart, I can’t describe it to others."

Jiang Fan was baffled.

Surely, even in the Divinity Transformation Realm, one shouldn’t face such heavenly restrictions?

The sages of the Human Clan, it seems, haven’t been known for unmentionable names.

Only the Ancient Saints have never been gossiped about.

Could it be this bell is related to some Ancient Saint-level existence in Hell Realm?

Thus, celestial secrets were blocked?

Jiang Fan thought for a while and tentatively asked, "Is this an item belonging to an Ancient Saint-level figure from our Central Earth World?"

Hua Xin had just nodded.

When her face suddenly transformed, Yin Qi gushed madly from within her.

Like a broken water bag.

She was filled with panic.

Desperately trying to stop the Yin Qi from escaping, but to no avail.

Her Soul Power, as the Yin Qi dispersed, visibly decreased.

Jiang Fan took a sharp breath!

Even this can’t be mentioned?

What kind of forbidden existence is this?

He quickly took out a large handful of harvested vegetables and put them into the Ghost Soul Crystal.

Hua Xin quickly clung to them, eating as if her life depended on it.

Only thanks to the abundantly rich Yin Qi in the vegetables, she could temporarily maintain the balance, preventing further depletion.

Jiang Fan continued feeding her.

An hour later.

The vegetables from half an acre were all fed.

Only then did Hua Xin’s Yin Qi depletion finally cease.

Her already pale complexion grew paler, and her gaze toward the Hell Soul Bell was filled with fear.

Covering her mouth tight, she dared not utter more.

Jiang Fan dared not ask further.

If he continued questioning, it might implicate himself too.

"Truly picked up a heaven-defying object here."

Jiang Fan marveled repeatedly.

Hua Xin’s eyes were so envious they turned red.

"I’ve given up searching for it over the years."

"Thought it was lost in Hell Realm."

"Who knew it would be in your hands!"

"Haven’t told me yet, how did you get the Hell Soul Bell?"

"It surely must have been through countless perils, narrowly escaping death to obtain it, right?"

"This bell couldn’t possibly appear in a safe place."
