Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 390 - 292: Spirit Realm Invasion!

The same steps, the same ingredients, the Gold Beamon brewed vinegar instead of wine.

This bizarre outcome was something Zhao Yi didn’t expect, and the Golden-haired Monkey Xiao Jin began to question reality.

Xiao Jin stretched out a paw and dipped it in some vinegar, cautiously tasted it, and immediately wrinkled its eyebrows from the sourness.

After that, it looked at the Gold Beamon with a strange expression.

The Toxic Creature waited for a while, seeing that Xiao Jin drank the vinegar and didn’t die, so it also scooped a ladle and recklessly drank it all in one go.

Hiss!

One gulp of vinegar down the throat, the Toxic Creature suddenly shivered violently, hands clutching its neck, face flushed red, looking like it was about to die from the pain.

"Wow, so sour... This wine... is poisonous!"

Slap!

Zhao Yi tapped her on the head, scolding: "What nonsense are you saying, this is vinegar, not wine!"

The Toxic Creature held its head, tears welling up, not knowing if it was from the pain or the sourness, asking in terror: "How can there be such a terrifying thing in this world?"

"You don’t know anything!"

Zhao Yi grabbed the Toxic Creature by the collar and tossed her out, then scooped another ladle of vinegar, tasting it under the terrified gaze of the Toxic Creature.

"That’s the taste!" Zhao Yi savored it with delight.

If only there was a bowl of noodles right now.

The Cultivation World doesn’t have vinegar.

If it weren’t for the Gold Beamon, he would have almost forgotten what vinegar tasted like.

"This is quite the treasure!"

Zhao Yi praised: "Appetite stimulant, digestion aid, beauty enhancer, fatigue fighter. Compared to wine, this is far more valuable."

The Toxic Creature doubted: "Really? I just drank a mouthful and felt like I was about to die?"

Zhao Yi laughed and said: "Vinegar isn’t meant to be consumed like that; it’s a condiment, normally used in cooking, or you can mix it with noodles, and it tastes amazing."

Zhao Yi couldn’t help but swallow.

He could avoid grains, not needing food and not feeling hungry.

The craving was purely a bodily instinctive reaction.

Zhao Yi saw the Toxic Creature’s skeptical face, shook his head, and was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed.

Zhao Xuan noticed and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Zhao Yi shook his head slightly: "The Divine Soul I left in Shengjing City suddenly extinguished, something must have happened in the Cultivation World."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuan’s face turned solemn: "Could it be that creature has started invading?"

Zhao Yi shook his head: "Not clear yet."

Finished, he said: "I need to go back and see what happened, otherwise it’s too passive."

Zhao Xuan hesitated: "Isn’t returning now too risky? If that creature is as terrifying as you said, it might attack you!"

"It’s not that bad." Zhao Yi nodded, "I’m just going for a look; even if the creature finds me, I’ll have enough time to retreat."

Zhao Xuan, seeing his determination, nodded: "Alright, be careful."

Zhao Yi nodded, and with a thought, disappeared from everyone’s sight.

The next moment, Zhao Yi returned to the Cultivation World.

Shengjing City, Crown Prince’s Mansion.

When Zhao Yi appeared, it was on a clearing in the back mountain.

There was originally a twisted-neck tree here, linked to the Secret Realm World of the Golden Hall.

To exile the Golden Hall, Zhao Yi chopped the tree down, leaving only an empty space.

When Zhao Yi appeared, the empty ground was still there, but the back mountain had been leveled by something.

"The mountain was flattened; no wonder the Divine Soul disappeared."

Zhao Yi looked at the neat, smooth mountaintop, his face grave.

He could shatter a mountain, but couldn’t cut it as smoothly as this.

It’s hard to imagine the power of whoever did this!

Boom!

Suddenly Zhao Yi heard explosions from afar.

He quickly turned to look and saw the Imperial Palace’s Guardian Array explode.

His pupils shrank, quickly averting his gaze to avoid revealing his presence due to sensing.

The capital city now didn’t resemble a luxurious palace but rather a gigantic zoo.

As the Guardian Array broke, countless exotic creatures surged into the palace.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Yi frowned deeply.

He had checked before, confirming multiple times with the protagonist; there were no paths to the Spirit Realm or any of the Three Thousand Small Worlds from the Cultivation World.

But where did these creatures come from?

And almost all of the Three Thousand Small Worlds sent creatures here.

When Zhao Yi looked over, some ugly creatures bared their teeth and drooled, rushing forward while sneaking a morsel of their companion when the others weren’t looking.

Even from afar, Zhao Yi could clearly sense the murderous intent in the air.

Clearly, those grotesque creatures charged into the palace with the mindset to slaughter.

But they were destined to be disappointed.

No living treasures, only lifeless objects like golden antiques were inside.

No living, breathing creature left a single hair behind.

If those ugly creatures found a single worm inside, Zhao Yi would call them lucky.

Sure enough, as Zhao Yi considered this, angry roars echoed from the palace.

Then those exotic creatures started attacking each other. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Having gone through great hardship to breach the Guardian Array, exhausted and starving, they had planned to feast after entering the palace, only to find it empty.

Their thoughts were simple.

The companions smelled delicious.

If they couldn’t fill their stomachs with enemies, then why not a companion since they’re from different species anyway.

Besides, elsewhere those companions were still enemies.

Eat one more now, in future battles, that’s one less enemy for their group.

Thus did these creatures commence slaughtering each other, painting the palace red with the carnage.

Zhao Yi glanced before turning away.

He regretted not planting more peonies in the palace.

Peonies are carnivorous plants; with so much fertilizer in the Imperial Garden, next year’s bloom would surely be abundant.

Boom!

After the Guardian Array fell, another explosion erupted from Shengjing City’s west.

Zhao Yi turned to see it seemed the blast came from West Mountain.

Moreover, a dense, sinister aura of death loomed there, seemingly amassed with undead beings.

"Su Qianqian?"

Seeing the death energy on West Mountain, Zhao Yi’s first thought was Su Qianqian.

Su Qianqian inherited the Sage of Time’s memories, the Cultivation World’s sole practitioner of Undead Magic.

Just then, Zhao Yi saw a snow-white blade light rise from West Mountain, soaring skyward.

Boom!

The blade light disappeared long, and another explosion was heard.

Then the earth shook violently.

Sensing the strange movement beneath, Zhao Yi suddenly thought of something absurd but very likely.

"Could that blade have shattered West Mountain?"
