Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 985 - 0 The Rule of Wind Herbs! (3rd Update)

After a wild chase in the sky, his power was rather depleted, but still, he hadn’t managed to shake off the group behind him.

Ye Qiu was anxious, but had no other option. He changed direction and continued to run wildly on the ground. Twenty minutes later, Ye Qiu landed from the sky, holding Jin Yu tightly as he moved swiftly along the ground.

He realized that competing for speed in the sky with these flying guys was the most foolish thing. He had no advantage at all, especially while holding Jin Yu.

The horde of vultures behind them stopped flying high, lowered to the ground level, and relentlessly pursued Ye Qiu, showing no intention of giving up.

After such a long ordeal, even with Ye Qiu’s mythical physique, he felt exhausted.

Moreover, continuing to sprint wasn’t a solution. They would be caught sooner or later. Ye Qiu pondered on how to break free from this predicament.

So far, they hadn’t encountered any other ancient beasts. If some obstacles like a tiger came up, he and Jin Yu would really be in trouble here.

Just as Ye Qiu was deep in thought, a dune-like landscape appeared in front of them.

Whoosh...

The wind howled, sweeping across this desert-like terrain.

Ye Qiu’s eyes lit up, realizing an opportunity, and he immediately rushed towards it without hesitation.

Behind him, the vultures were closing in, but the young man suddenly dashed into the wind and sand zone, causing all of them to halt abruptly and descend at the boundary between the sand and vegetation.

Ye Qiu looked back, and seeing this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, these guys stopped chasing. Otherwise, he’d be exhausted to the point of coughing up blood.

Ye Qiu, holding Jin Yu, ventured deeper into the area to avoid being targeted by these large birds. These creatures looked at them as if they were food, which made Ye Qiu uneasy.

As Ye Qiu and Jin Yu entered the desert-like area, the vultures outside, under the command of the leading bird, stayed put with no intention of leaving.

Whoosh...

The wind and sand blew against them, leaving Ye Qiu’s face dry. Jin Yu kept tightening its wings to avoid being blown away by the wind.

After about a dozen minutes, Ye Qiu saw two hills towering ahead, full of wind-worn traces, etched with the scars of history.

Passing through the middle, the wind was fierce. If not for Ye Qiu’s strength, he might have been swept away by the gales between the two hills.

With great effort, passing through the passage between the hills, the force of the wind finally lessened significantly.

The path along the hills was the greatest wind corridor here. No wonder the wind was so strong; even Ye Qiu, an expert at a mythical level, nearly stumbled.

Breathed out in relief, Ye Qiu finally took the time to observe the surroundings.

Looking around, the vegetation was sparse. Some trees had long withered beyond recognition, perhaps rooted deep enough not to be blown away.

Ye Qiu scanned the area and, not finding any ancient beasts, felt completely at ease.

Hmm?

Suddenly, Ye Qiu’s gaze shifted. It seemed he had missed something just now.

As Ye Qiu looked back and observed again, there was a patch of lush green grass under the hill, bending with the wind, yet firmly rooted in the soil.

Ye Qiu dusted off his clothes and swiftly approached.

Upon nearing the grass, Ye Qiu stared at it for a moment, then crouched down and began to dig the soil beneath it with his hands.

Jin Yu couldn’t understand why Ye Qiu was digging under the grass, but followed suit, using its claws to claw at the soil.

When a small, white, lotus-like segment appeared in Ye Qiu’s hand, he was overjoyed.

It really was an herb containing Rule Power.

Ye Qiu hadn’t been certain before, considering the scarce records on herbs containing Rule Power. Yet the alchemy books noted that such herbs often grew in specific areas, so Ye Qiu deliberately sought such places.

But after searching for a while and encountering a swarm of vultures, in his frantic escape he had stumbled into this wind-swept region.

Feeling the Rule Power contained within the lotus-like herb, Ye Qiu’s face lit up with joy; it contained the Rule Power of Wind.

Without hesitation, Ye Qiu dug up the rest of the wind rule-containing white lotus and quickly stored them in his space bag to prevent losing their power.

There were over fifty pieces, from two patches of grass, all harvested by Ye Qiu. According to his judgment, these patches of wind rule-containing grass had been growing for over a hundred years, and the Rule Power within was quite potent.

If only there was earth fire available now, Ye Qiu couldn’t resist refining a batch of Wind Origin Pills. Then, he could master a second type of Rule Power.

However, where to find earth fire now? Ye Qiu felt a bit disappointed.

After spending half a day in the Wind Sand Valley, Ye Qiu was parched, and so was Jin Yu. This creature wrapped its head tightly with its wings, like a mummy, causing Ye Qiu to laugh and cry.

Quietly stepping out to scout, Ye Qiu found to his dismay, the giant vultures were still outside, with no indications of leaving.

With a sigh, the situation as it stood meant he couldn’t leave and could only stay here.

But prolonged waiting was still not a solution.

Ye Qiu pondered for a long time, unable to come up with a good solution. In the end, he wondered if he could comprehend the Rule Power of Wind without alchemy.

If he could grasp the Rule Power of Wind, escaping would become much swifter than now.

Ye Qiu had witnessed a mythical realm Martial Artist using the Rule Power of Wind. Their speed was such that even he struggled to keep up. Back then, he had slain a mythical realm possessing the Rule Power of Wind by using a spiritual power attack to prevent their escape, allowing him to directly kill them.

Thus, Ye Qiu held high hopes for the Rule Power of Wind, as comprehending it could significantly enhance his strength.

Ye Qiu retrieved the white lotus containing the Rule Power of Wind and tried to absorb its power.

Whoosh!

The Rule Power of Wind within the white lotus was initially quiet, but with Ye Qiu’s guidance, it suddenly became turbulent.

The Rule Power of Wind surged into Ye Qiu’s body, its purity undeniable, but its destructive force was also formidable.

Ye Qiu hesitated to expel it, not wanting to waste the Rule Power that would dissipate back into nature.

What to do?

Ye Qiu grew anxious, as the Rule Power lay before him yet he couldn’t comprehend it, a truly frustrating experience.

Unable to figure it out, his body continued to fill with the Rule Power of Wind, destroying him. If he couldn’t find a solution soon, he’d have to abandon this piece of white lotus.

Suddenly, a flash of brilliance appeared in Ye Qiu’s mind.

Ye Qiu recalled the moment he obtained the Rule Power of Ice and decided to take a gamble: "Try it. At worst, I’ll get hurt."

With a determined look, Ye Qiu steadied his mind and began directing the amassed Rule Power of Wind towards his remaining eye.

Whether this approach would work, Ye Qiu had no idea but felt he had to take the chance!
