Chapter 258 - Illusionary G.o.d Cone and Geocentric Fire LotusWhen Lin Wan"er heard that familiar voice ringing in her ears, her body suddenly shook. She stopped struggling and slowly turned around!
When Lin Wan"er saw that familiar face full of affectionate eyes, her body trembled violently once more. Her beautiful face was covered with a dream-like blur, and she was left speechless.
"Wan"er, I"m back."Xiang Yun looked into Lin Wan"er"s red and swollen eyes, his heart filled with an indescribable feeling. He had only said this one sentence!
In that instant, Lin Wan"er"s tears fell like a burst lake, and at the same time, she hugged the Xiang Yun in front of her!
"Your Highness!"
Lin Wan"er hugged him with all her might, as if she was afraid that the woman who had suddenly appeared would suddenly disappear.
"Wan"er, don"t cry anymore. I"m back, so you should be happy." Xiang Yun extended his arms to embrace Lin Wan"er as well, gently patting her back.
However, Lin Wan"er was still crying bitterly. She couldn"t stop the tears from streaming down her face. It was as if she wanted to vent all the sadness, worry, and fear from the past few days into her heart!
"I knew it, I knew it! You won"t die the way they say you won"t!" "Wuuuuuu!"
Lin Wan"er cried until she was like a tearful person. Xiang Yun could only comfort her until the beautiful woman on his shoulder fell into a deep sleep amidst his weeping!She gently hugged Lin Wan"er in her arms. This girl had not rested for who knows how many days, and there were still tears on her face. She was already sound asleep!
Xiang Yun looked at the beauty in his arms, who was just inches away from him, and at the pair of slightly bulging red eyes, which were filled with tears. His heart couldn"t help but ache.
Carefully wiping away the tears on Lin Wan"er"s face, Xiang Yun looked at the sky outside. It was already dusk, so he gently lifted Lin Wan"er and placed her on the bed in the inner room before carefully covering her with a blanket.
After finishing all this, Xiang Yun returned to the study table in the outer room and sat down. Putting aside the guilt and remorse in his heart, he tried to sort out his chaotic state of mind as well as the events that had occurred this time around.
On this trip to the Silvermoon Forest, not only did he manage to learn the Swift Wind Sword, he even managed to condense his spiritual will.
With Luo Ning"s careful guidance,
Giving him the Blue Profound sword, Xiang Yun"s strength was already incomparable to before.His strength was only at the peak of the Six Cloud Peak, but he was actually able to defeat Duan Xi, an early Huang Yun expert, on the Snow Dragon Peak. This was the best proof.
This time, other than the gains in strength, Xiang Yun"s spatial ring was also filled to the brim. A king level Jade-Eyed Scarlet Flame Lion and the flesh and blood of three general level Cloud Beasts. Just the nourishing spirit energy contained within them was enough to make one go crazy.
Not to mention that the bones, nails, and fur of these Cloud Beasts were all excellent materials for refining or refining pills. It could be said that Xiang Yun"s storage ring already contained a mountain of gold. It could be said that his wealth was astounding.This would naturally benefit his future strength greatly.
The most obvious increase, of course, was not because of these, but was due to the fact that Xiang Yun"s dantian had only absorbed one-tenth of the Haoyuan Pill.
This was the pill that Luo Ning had used to replenish her vitality and replenish her Qi and blood. Only now did Xiang Yun know that he had still underestimated the efficacy of this Clear Yuan Pill.
Ever since he had taken the pill, Xiang Yun had been using the energy of the Haoyuan Pill to quickly recover his vital energy and blood. Not only was the surging spiritual energy being absorbed by his spiritual roots, it was also absorbed by his spiritual roots.
Contained between his spirit root and dantian, the purple fire dragon formed from his Heavenly Dragon zhen Qi grew in size and emitted purple fire. It grew even more vigorous, allowing Xiang Yun to quickly reach the peak of Six Cloud Clouds!
If things continued like this, Xiang Yun estimated that he would still have about fifty percent of his energy remaining after breaking through to the Seven Cloud Martial Disciple realm. No wonder the Clear Yuan Pill was a pill of a higher grade than the Profound Jade Pill; it truly was extraordinary!"It seems like I owe Luo Ning quite a lot!" Xiang Yun could not help but smile bitterly.
However, Xiang Yun did not know that although the Haoyuan Pill was not of ordinary quality, if one were to truly talk about its medicinal effects, the Haoyuan Pill circulating in the market would not be able to compare to 70% of the Haoyuan Pill in his dantian.
It was because this Haoyuan Pill was not refined by an ordinary alchemist. Amongst the three great grandmasters of the Luo Ning Family, this was the pill that was most adept at refining healing pellets. Only by being refined by a grandmaster alchemist could the medicinal pills be as effective as this.
When he thought of Luo Ning, Xiang Yun recalled the bag she had given him before she left. With a quick thought, the black bag from his storage ring appeared on the desk.
Inside was a book, a wooden box, and a letter! Xiang Yun reached out and took the book at the very top into his hands.
The cover was mottled and badly damaged, as though it had been cut by a sharp blade. However, underneath the tentacles, Xiang Yun felt a strange, ice-cold feeling. From the texture of the pages, it was definitely not made of ordinary paper!Xiang Yun could vaguely see three simple words on the cover: "Illusionary G.o.d"s Cone".
"Hmm?" Xiang Yun felt rather puzzled. He pretended that he had not flipped open the book and instead placed the ancient book by his side. He then picked up the wooden case beneath the ancient book.His hand felt somewhat heavy, as if there was something heavy inside. Separated by the thick wooden box, Xiang Yun could feel that the temperature of the wooden box was quite high, slightly scorching his hand!
Xiang Yun carefully opened the wooden box, only opening up a corner. Immediately, a wave of heat rushed out, causing Xiang Yun to be unable to resist, his body retreating a little. Through the gaps in the wooden box, a faint scarlet light shone out!
"This …"Xiang Yun"s face was filled with surprise. He slowly opened the lid of the box, and what entered his eyes was actually a crimson red lotus that emitted a brilliant l.u.s.ter and scorching heat!
The lotus petals were red like fire and faintly transparent. In the blink of an eye, they seemed like blazing flames, extremely breathtaking.
There were actually a dozen or so lotus seeds within the fire lotuses. They flickered with a fiery red light, resembling rubies.
Even though this red lotus was as hot as fire, Xiang Yun could clearly feel the shocking Spiritual Energy within it. This fire lotus was definitely not an ordinary object!
Xiang Yun"s gaze shifted to the side of the fire lotus. There was actually a purplish gold colored rectangular command medallion beside it. On the medallion, the word "Luo" was carved with large, golden words!
Curious and doubtful, Xiang Yun gently closed the wooden box and placed it on the side of the desk. His gaze fell upon the letter that was pressed down at the very bottom, a very flat and simple envelope with the words "Xiang Yun"s Apprentice" written on the surface.
The calligraphy was not the beautiful and round style of an ordinary woman. On the contrary, it was sharp, sharp, and gave off a sharp aura. This was Luo Ning"s calligraphy!Xiang Yun opened the envelope and took out the letter. The contents were just as he had expected, short and direct, without the slightest hint of emotion!
There was only one sentence that was said outside of the question, and that was Xiang Yun had saved her life before. With these things, she would repay this debt of grat.i.tude and not owe anyone else ever again!
The first book was called "Illusionary G.o.d Cone", a martial skill from the Luo Ning Family. However, this martial skill was very special, it was not executed with Yun Li"s punches and kicks, but rather a martial skill that relied on the spirit of the Cloud Warrior.The letter stated that Xiang Yun had condensed his spiritual will, so he could use it to attack. If he could cultivate this Illusionary G.o.d"s Cone martial skill and create a fire, he would be able to injure and kill people without them noticing!
As for the fiery-red lotus flower in the wooden box, Luo Ning had explained that it was taken out of the well engraved with the Phoenix Inscription in the Jade-Eyed Red Flame Lion"s cave. This was the "Geocentric Fire Lotus".
This was originally the genius treasure of the Jade-Eyed Red Flame Lion in the cave. It was probably waiting for him to successfully pa.s.s his tribulation and consume the lotus to recover his strength. However, he didn"t expect that the Spirit Devouring Beetles would destroy his opportunity.
Back then, Xiang Yun had also observed the entrance to the cave and had discovered the terrifying temperature and energy contained within. Thus, he had not dared to act rashly. He had not expected that Luo Ning had some tricks up her sleeve to bring out this Geocentric Fire Lotus.Luo Ning had mentioned in her letter that although this fire lotus was precious, it was of no use to her and was instead of beneficial to Xiang Yun. This fire lotus had many uses, and the flame leaf could be used as an auxiliary medicine, working with the Ice Soul Rose to refine the Mysterious Jade Pill.
As for the fire lotus seeds, they were even more useful. Half of the essence of the fire lotus was concentrated in the lotus seeds. Not only could they be used as medicinal ingredients, but the Cloud Warriors could even directly swallow them!
The fire lotus seed could use its own terrifying heat, its own unending fire attribute spirit energy, and its tremendous life force to temper and heal a martial pract.i.tioner"s body.
Especially when a martial artist was breaking through, if this thing was consumed and refined, not only would it stabilize their cultivation and eliminate the hidden injuries within their body, but it could also widen their meridians, which would be extremely beneficial to their future path.However, the only drawback of this thing was that its temperature was too hot. An ordinary Cloud Warrior would not be able to endure its temperature even if they touched it with their hands. Anyone who could consume the Geocentric Fire Lotus, refine their body, and expand their meridians, would definitely have great willpower.
Luo Ning"s last sentence was extremely strange. She had told Xiang Yun that he had to leave Qin Feng City within a month or else there would be a calamity coming his way.
Xiang Yun had pondered over this line of words for a long time, yet he still could not understand what was going on. Could it be that Luo Ning was worried that the youth named Gu Ming would take revenge on him?However, with Old Liang here, this kid would probably not be able to cause any problems, so Xiang Yun stopped thinking about it.
Looking at the two items on the table, one was a Spirit Power Attack Secret Art, and one was a Geocentric Fire Lotus. These were all rare treasures. Although Luo Ning"s words were simple and casual, Xiang Yun knew how precious these two gifts were.
Even though he had obtained two treasures, Xiang Yun was not the least bit happy. Looking at this letter, his heart felt empty, as if something was missing.
Xiang Yun suddenly had a thought. From today onwards, he would not be able to see Luo Ning again. Luo Ning"s intention in leaving these items seemed to be to completely sever all ties with him, to never owe him anything ever again!
It seemed that Luo Ning and him were still people from two different worlds. Back in the Sunset Forest, they had experienced hardships and lived together in life and death together. That day, they had been drunk as a song, and on that day, they drank blood and took drugs … …
Remembering one piece of paper after another caused Xiang Yun"s heart to feel uncontrollably uncomfortable. He randomly picked up the letter and was about to place it back in the envelope.
However, just as he was about to pick up the letter, Xiang Yun suddenly discovered that there seemed to be words written on the back of the paper!
He quickly flipped the letter over and discovered that there was a small line of words on the back of the letter. At the beginning of the line was a big black dot, and it seemed that when Luo Ning was writing, she was leaning her pen against the paper and hesitated for a long time before she started writing.
"In the future, if you have anything you need to find me for, you can bring the command token in the box to the Allied Trade a.s.sociation. At that time, someone will send a message to me!"
Xiang Yun"s heart skipped a beat the moment he saw this line of words, his breathing becoming heavier, his gaze also lighting up.He quickly reached out, opened the wooden box, and placed the purple token in his hand. After examining it for a while, he couldn"t help but smile
Thousands of miles away, in the sea of clouds, a silver flood dragon was soaring through the clouds like a silver river.
A man and a woman stood atop the Silver Dragon. The man was sitting cross-legged on the ground. His face was pale as if he was injured and was currently recovering from his injuries.A beautiful young lady was standing on the dragon horn. She was wearing a black robe and her fine black hair was like a waterfall. Her nearly perfect figure was currently in an exquisite shape.
The woman was as beautiful as a fairy who didn"t care for the world!However, at this moment, she seemed to have thought of something that she was worried about. A slight hesitation appeared on her tranquil face as she muttered to herself in a soft voice that only she could hear.
"I wonder if that fool saw the words at the end …"
