Chapter 251: Wu Ye (2)
"Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl!" Chen Tian instantly came to the conclusion that she possesses the Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl with her.
The only thing that could provide this woman with enough Yin energy to stay alive without a body was the Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl.
"Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl's level should also be high enough to sustain her existence." Chen Tian couldn't help but be delighted at the thought of taking the Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl.
But his biggest problem is that if the pearl was really with this woman, how would he get his hands on it without her noticing? He knew that the Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl was highly sought after and would attract the attention of many powerful cultivators.
Not to mention trying, this woman could kill him with a snap of her fingers.
Chen Tian pondered his options carefully, knowing that any reckless move could cost him his life.
He decided to bide his time, but first, he needed to calm down this pissed woman in front of him, or he wouldn't have the chance to even wait for the right moment.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Tian tried to suppress his anxiety and looked at the woman cautiously.
He knew he had to choose his words carefully, as one wrong statement could escalate the situation further.
For the first time in his life, he was nervous; if it were in his previous life, Chen Tian wouldn't be this worried.
But in this life, he can't die; he couldn't leave the important people in his life behind. Su Bingxin, Emilia, Aria, his family. They were his reason for living, and he couldn't bear the thought of losing them.
Chen Tian's heart pounded in his chest as he mustered the courage to speak.
"I just saw that you're not alive and are a spirit," Chen Tian spoke with a tinge of uncertainty in his voice.
The woman looked through him with piercing eyes, her expression unreadable. "A spirit?" she repeated, her voice dripping with skepticism. "Only that? You didn't see anything else?"
Chen Tian hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to respond.
Gathering his thoughts, he replied, "Well, I did see something else. I saw the flow of Yin energy around you."
The woman raised an eyebrow, her doubt turning into curiosity. "Yin energy? That's interesting," she said, a hint of surprise in her voice.
"So his technique can sense the energy that I'm absorbing?" she mused in her head.
The Yin energy that she was absorbing to keep her soul stable was so subtle that only those with high cultivation could detect it.
Chen Tian's ability to see the flow of Yin energy that she had intrigued Wu Ye further.
As she observed him with her piercing eyes, she couldn't help but wonder what other hidden talents he possessed.
"Fine, I will keep an eye on him," she thought to herself, a small smile forming in her head.
The more Chen Tian shows her abilities above his level, the happier Wu Ye gets, since the more abnormal Chen Tian is, the more he will be able to assist her in the future.
Her anger subsided a little after she thought about it.
"Don't do it again," Wu Ye said in a cold tone, her voice devoid of any warmth.
She watched Chen Tian closely, her eyes filled with cold determination.
She knew she couldn't trust him completely, but for now, she would keep him close, using him to her advantage. However, any misstep from him would not be tolerated.
Unfortunately for her, Chen Tian wasn't to be underestimated.
Even if he was worried about dying here, he wouldn't succumb to Wu Ye's control.
Chen Tian was well aware of Wu Ye's intentions the moment she said she wanted to create a new body for herself, which was not impossible but very hard to accomplish.
First, the ingredients to make a new body, Chen Tian wouldn't be able to find them in any mortal realm, and the only chance to find them is in the Nine Heavens, and that was only a 30% chance to find them there.
Additionally, even if Chen Tian managed to find the ingredients, the process of creating a new body was treacherous and risky.
It required immense power and mastery over the arts of life and death. Wu Ye's request seemed not only daunting but also potentially fatal.
Not to mention, he still doesn't know anything about this woman's background; for Chen Tian, she wasn't worth the risk.
"With my current strength, I can forget about escaping," Chen Tian thought to himself.
The best thing he could do was activate both the Lightning Crystal and the Fire Crystal.
Even with that, Chen Tian's chance of escaping this place is less than 2%.
"So, what? Do you agree to help me?" Wu Ye asked, her voice cold and piercing through the silence of the room.
Her words were far from a request, but more like an order that demanded obedience. Chen Tian hesitated for a moment, weighing his options.
He knew that crossing Wu Ye would have dire consequences in his current situation, but helping her out meant putting his own life at stake.
However, he realized that refusal was not an option. With a sigh of resignation, he reluctantly nodded and replied, "Fine, I will help you."
"Good." Wu Ye smiled, her lips curling into a beautiful smile that took Chen Tian by surprise.
"Of course, I wouldn't ask for your help without any kind of reward. Rest assured." Wu Ye suddenly took a small pearl out and handed it to Chen Tian.
Seeing this pearl, Chen Tian's expression quickly changed from curiosity to shock. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
The small pearl in Wu Ye's hand was none other than the Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl! Not only that, Chen Tian thought that the grade of this pearl would at least be an 8- or 9-grade treasure, but to his surprise, the Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl was at least an immortal-grade treasure.

"Oh my gosh! This is unbelievable!" Chen Tian exclaimed in his head, his eyes widening in astonishment.
"Immortal Yin! How many levels can I level up with this? It would also be beneficial for the girls." Chen Tian's mind raced with excitement as he imagined the immense power that the Netherworld Profound Yin Pearl possessed.
With its ability to absorb Yin Energy at 100% and its 20% immortal Yin, he knew that this treasure had the potential to elevate his cultivation to unimaginable heights.
Seeing Chen Tian's expression, Wu Ye smiled knowingly; she understood how rare for someone to come across such a powerful artifact.
"If I give him enough benefits, he will definitely help me more in the future and support my goals," Wu Ye thought to herself. She knew that aligning herself with someone like Chen Tian, who was talented and had access to such unique techniques, would greatly benefit her.
"Hmph, I'm not ungrateful; if you help me in the future, I will give you even better rewards," Wu Ye declared with a sly grin.
She also didn't like to pressure someone into doing something for her, but she couldn't
