I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch

The Golden-skirted Goddess hovered mid-air, with a rose gold divine halo suspended behind her, barefoot with hands behind her back, her divine eyes calm and tranquil as she looked down at the crowd below.

She swept her glance over them and finally looked towards the respectful, bowing youth with grey hair, her voice light:

"Che Yinyou, has your elder brother collected all the 'Venerable materials' yet?"

Hearing the question, Che Yinyou was momentarily stunned, although not knowing why the Eternal Day Goddess posed this question.

Still, he replied with respectful gravity, "Two more hours are needed."

"This time, with the trade with Yeli Helian, we helped him slaughter the city, offering the souls of the city's residents in sacrifice. In return, he gave us two Heavenly Stone Embryos and three Light Dark Yao Stones, plus the five Light Dark Yao Stones that Blind Qing obtained on Witch Island, making a total of eight Yao Stones."

"Eight Light Dark Yao Stones are to be refined in the Yin Yang Mirror; currently, we still need two more hours to complete the refinement.

A Light Yao Stone paired with a Dark one can be used for one Dual Cultivation, and after refining all eight, we can perform four Dual Cultivations, aiding my elder brother in forcibly Condensing Goal Position to become Venerable."

To become Venerable meant to form the Original Position from a learned A-class Spiritual Clothes, reaching the Venerable Realm upon success.

It was a step into an entirely new realm of existence.

The spiritual materials required to become Venerable amounted to 20 types, with the Taiji Fruit and Heavenly Stone Embryo being the most crucial.

Like a seed that blooms and bears fruit, the Heavenly Stone Embryo is the soil, the Taiji Fruit is the seed, Spiritual Pressure is the rain, and Spiritual Clothes are the sunlight—each element indispensable.

For this reason, to become Venerable, a True Martial Spirit Master's Spiritual Pressure should ideally peak to ensure there is sufficient 'rain' for nourishment.

As for A-class Spiritual Clothes, there are no particular requirements; any class above A is acceptable, but naturally, choosing a more powerful A-class Spiritual Clothes is advantageous.

This affects the level of power attained after becoming Venerable.

But it's not as if meeting all these conditions guarantees success in becoming Venerable.

The failure rate is actually quite high,

Each failed attempt inflicts a certain backlash, with a precipitous drop in Spiritual Pressure and damage to the Spiritual Base, taking at least two or three years to recover.

So according to what Che Yinyou said,

Che Taixian is likely preparing that should he fail to become Venerable, he'll use the Dual Cultivation of the Yin Yang Mirror to quickly regain his Spiritual Pressure and repair any damage, thus making another attempt to reach the Venerable Realm.

The four opportunities for Dual Cultivation with the Yin Yang Mirror signify that Che Taixian has five continuous chances to assault the Venerable Realm, accumulating experience rapidly—undoubtedly greatly increasing his chances of success.

"Goddess, may I ask why you inquire about this matter?"

Che Yinyou respectfully bowed his head, his eyes narrowing slightly.

In fact, he could sense an almost imperceptible sense of crisis approaching; his Spiritual Sense was warning him.

Danger?

Evidently, that K-faced man must have reported to her.

Tch~ How amusing. This idiot really doesn't believe that the Eternal Day Goddess, as a deity of Burning Heaven, could do anything to him, right?

For Che Yinyou, his devotion lay with the great Destruction Star God; superficial respect for the Eternal Day was enough.

As long as he didn't make any major mistakes, even if this Goddess resented him, she would need to consider the Destruction Star God's disposition and the Burning Heaven Temple's strict rules against infighting!

Therefore, the Eternal Day Goddess wouldn't possibly act against him over some so-called distinguished guest, unless she was insane.

"Che Yinyou, why is your hair grey-white?"

At that moment, the distant Golden-skirted Goddess asked with a calm curiosity. Che Yinyou paused, "I dyed it."

He was a bit bewildered by the question; it seemed so random.

"Dyeing your hair a color that disgusts me, are you seeking death?"

The Golden-skirted Goddess spoke with an indifferent tone as her divine eyes looked down, and as her words fell, "I'll oblige you."

Che Yinyou looked up in shock, and his eyes burst open immediately—his eye sockets became bloody hollows, and the blood-marked emblem on his forehead cracked.

"!!!!"

Fuck! His face turned a terrified pale white, and without hesitation, he turned and ran!

But just as he leaped into the air, his right thigh exploded out of nowhere. He cried out in excruciating pain, his speed of escape slightly slowed as he continued to flee towards the north while howling.

"Eternal Day, you're fucking insane!!"

With Che Yinyou's cry of horror and rage, Xia Feng took a step and transformed into a shooting star, pursuing him towards the north.

Everything happened in an instant. On the square, Ye Lin, Blind Qing, and others were somewhat dumbfounded, unable to react.

What's going on, why did they suddenly start fighting?

Has the Goddess gone mad?

There were already few believers of Destruction, and each one was a rare asset to the Destruction Star God.

Targeting Che Yinyou like this was undoubtedly going against Destruction, which was not beneficial for the Goddess's competition over the Destruction Foundation Stone.

The so-called Destruction Foundation Stone was a key Divine Object for achieving the status of an eight-order god! Only the Destruction Star God had it, and as for whether it would be given to the Heavenly Gifted Disaster or the Eternal Day Goddess, the benefits had not been distributed evenly, and no plan had been set yet.

This decision by the Goddess was clearly untimely and not very rational.

Is the K-masked person... really that important?

Blind Qing was stunned for about a second, then as if understanding something, his face suddenly changed, and he took a step, turning his head to attempt to flee.

But the next moment, the Goddess's calm voice sent chills down his spine.

"Ye Lin, kill him."

The woman with pink hair immediately came to her senses, her figure instantly appearing in front of Blind Qing, her lips curving slightly, "Blind man, it seems today is the day you die."

The other sixteen black-robed figures wearing the Golden Eye θ masks quickly dispersed and took their positions, activating the Spiritual Clothes Array, completely trapping Blind Qing.

Blind Qing's face turned ugly; damn it, what identity does that K-masked person have to make the Eternal Day Goddess go crazy like this?!

He didn't expect this outcome.

After all the trouble to obtain the Yao Stone, invoking the Goddess's help to send the stone back to Burning Heaven Island, had he summoned a traitorous deity?

Those Yao Stones were probably going to be pocketed by the damn traitorous deity...

The more Blind Qing thought about it, the angrier he became.

Ye Lin was equally puzzled about what the Goddess was doing. Was the Saint Heir really worth such actions from her?

What exactly was the relationship between him and the Goddess?

Ye Lin was filled with confusion and surprise, and at the same time relieved that she hadn't done anything excessive to that man earlier.

But no matter what, none of that mattered now.

They must immediately kill all those who know!

Meanwhile, Xia Feng had caught up with the fleeing Che Yinyou.

Sister Yi's voice sounded in his ear, "Little Feng, you only have two hours. After dealing with Che Yinyou, you must end his life before Che Taixian reaches the Venerable Realm."

"Otherwise, once Che Taixian becomes Venerable, the seal here will no longer be able to contain him."

As Gong Changyi's voice fell, Xia Feng looked up and saw a pale golden light spreading across the dim sky, forming a golden sphere that encompassed this region.

"This spherical seal can restrict the entry and exit of any object and completely block the transmission of information."

"Go, Little Feng, this city will be your proving ground. Let Sister see the growth you've achieved over these past years."

The faintly smiling and ethereal Divine Sound gradually faded from his ears,

Xia Feng nodded, his gaze turning to the disheveled grey-haired youth who had fallen to the ground not far away.

Che Yinyou's right thigh was severed, his face bloody and terrifying.

He leaned against the wall and turned to see the K-masked person had caught up, his expression instantly turning grim.

Xia Feng did not approach directly but stood atop a building, pulling back the Nash Saint Bow.

From his high vantage, his black pupils were indifferent:

"Che Yinyou, can you still run?"

On the Holy Bow, a terrifying arrow-shaped light was rapidly gathering!
