Chapter 409: Chapter 409- Bagging the loots.

While he was distracted, the Demonic Puppet and special Dark Ghost covered the distance and attacked without hesitation. The alchemist tried to defend. However, it was already too late.

Blood spurted, and the alchemist was killed on the spot.

Far away from the current battlefield, on top of a small hill, Yang Chen deactivated his [Ethereal Vision Technique] and sat down to recover. There was a hideous wound on his body, both of his legs were badly mutilated, dyeing the entire ground red.

Of course, this injury was solely self inflicted and was a result of his skill [Sacrificial Gambit]. In the end, he had to step in to stop the alchemist from running away. Thankfully, he had this skill with him, which worked regardless of the distance.

With this, he mutilated one of the legs of the alchemist, thus stopping him from escaping. Of course, since he didn’t get the last hit, he didn’t receive any exp. That said, taking out the alchemist was a reward on its own.

With the latter and all the soldiers dead, it could be said that he had cleared the quest. He could go back to the Heaven Hall with his head held high.

"Now then, it’s time to collect my rewards".

Thanks to the undying effect, his injuries had already healed. Quickly, he tracked his way back to the camp only to find a completely devastated land. Three beings comparable to Nine Star Battle Overlord fought here.

The clash of their power and strength completely changed the topography over here. Looking at the devastation, even Yang Chen didn’t dare to participate in such a battle.

"?" Suddenly, his eyes fell onto the special dark ghost, which had completely stopped moving after the alchemist was killed. That said, it was not like the beast was dead, it was simply in a state of inactivity,

"What’s going on with that thing?"...

"It looks like before the alchemist died, he managed to bring this thing back under his control. However, since he didn’t give any command, the beast is unable to move from its place. Of course, that won’t last for long. It should start moving pretty soon again" Amon answered his query.

So that was the case, Yang Chen nodded his head. He quickly got into scavenging for the loot. Soon, he found the thing he was looking for, the body of the alchemist. More precisely, clutched tightly in the middle of his palm, the pill that the latter refined after using the lives of many people.

Having harvested the souls and energy of all the blackthorn soldiers, the pill had now completely formed. Unfortunately, the alchemist who refined it would never be able to reap its benefits.

Since it would be a waste to throw away such a treasure, Yang Chen graciously accepted it.

Of course, a forbidden pill like the Life harvesting Energy Fetus pill would make anyone uncomfortable from even absorbing it. However, Yang Chen was different. As long as it could get him stronger, he was not fussy about the means.

Though the fact that many innocent villagers and children were sacrificed to refine this pill did weigh on his mind.

Amon silently pried on his thoughts but did not comment.

After taking the pill, Yang Chen focused his eyes on the next most precious thing, the space ring of the alchemist. As an alchemist himself, he understood how valuable the things in his space ring were.

As such, he was very much interested in the space ring of an alchemist who seemed to be tier above him. Especially after seeing their techniques. Of course, he didn’t forget to check if there was any imprint hidden in it.

He didn’t want to go through the same experience as when he got his hands on the mysterious old man’s space ring. Fortunately, there was no imprint, and Yang Chen was easily able to peer into the subspace.

As one would expect of a Late Stage Soul Materilisation cultivator who had one foot into the Phasless Soul stage, the thing he had amassed was extremely valuable, so much so that even Amon was impressed.

From superior grade cauldrons to mystical herbs and ominous items, the guy had a plethora of items stored inside. There were also extremely rare pill recipes inside that even Yang Chen was tempted by.

Most of them were recipes for forbidden pills, but there were also a few standard ones mixed in between. Now that he was able to refine even high grade tier 3 pills, the next step was tier 4.

These pill recipes will help him practice and reach newer heights. After storing everything that he could in his own, he threw away the empty space ring and turned around to leave.

He had left the girls side for too long, the both of them might be worried sick by now. He needed to regroup with them as soon as possible or else they might just come here looking for him.

He was just about to leave when Amon interrupted him.

"Are you sure you want to leave like this? There is still one thing you haven’t taken?" Piqued by his words, Yang Chen stopped in his tracks and asked, "What is it?".

He had taken everything valuable that there was. He didn’t touch the possession of the low ranking soldiers. However, he didn’t believe that they had anything valuable on them to begin with.

"No, I’m not talking about the soldier, I’m talking about that" the demon pointed with its claws.

Following the direction his claws were pointed at, Yang Chen’s eyes widened like saucers.

"You are kidding, right?" The reason for his comical expression was because the thing Amon was pointing at was none other than that Special Dark Ghost.

That thing was like a berserk beast, uncontrollable by even its master. How was he supposed to take that thing? In the first place, living thing cannot enter his space ring or inventory. The dark ghost was an animate lifeform different from the demonic puppet.
