Hearing Ye Feng"s call, Liu Bingqian was stunned for a moment before she looked in Ye Xueyi"s direction as well. In that instant, her expression froze on the spot as she turned her head to glance at Ye Feng.
"This …" "How could this be?"
It turned out that at this very moment, not only was Ye Xueyi"s appearance shrouded within the black mist, she was also enveloped by a b.l.o.o.d.y mist. Just looking at this scene caused one to feel incomparably shocked.
Ye Wen"s expression was solemn. In an instant, it turned ashen and he became a little anxious.
"Xue Yi, Xue Yi, can you hear my voice …"
Ye Xueyi said in a weak voice: "Brother Zi Feng, I can hear you."
Hearing her voice, Ye Feng and Liu Bingqian looked at each other. The rock in their hearts finally fell to the ground. They let out a long sigh of relief.
If something really happened to Xue Yi because of this, then even if he gave up the chance to break through, he would still rush in and save her.
After all, there were many chances to break through, but his little sister only had one.
"Xue Yi, what"s going on over there? Why does it look like there"s blood on the outside?" Ye Feng calmed himself down a little and continued to ask.
Logically speaking, the strength of this True Supreme Pill shouldn"t be so overbearing.
Under Ye Wen"s calculations, according to Xue Yi"s strength, the speed at which he levelled up might be slower. However, he wouldn"t end up suffering such a serious injury and losing so much blood.
"This …" Ye Xueyi was silent for a moment, her voice trembling slightly.
"I don"t know either. Just now when I absorbed the black mist, my body resisted for some reason. I tried to absorb the mist to break through, but I didn"t notice that there was so much blood on my back."
"Bleeding from my back." Ye Feng pondered for a moment. A thought seemed to flash across his mind. However, he was unable to say what exactly it was.
"Xue Yi, how are you doing right now?" Ye Feng was unable to see through the blood mist. He could only ask once more.
"Ever since I stopped absorbing the mist, my blood has stopped bleeding. It"s not a big deal, but I don"t have much strength left in my body."
Ye Wen"s eyes lit up and he frowned. He seemed to be deep in thought.
"That shouldn"t be. If I were to break through by absorbing the black mist, it would be the last step. Even if I had to endure pain, I shouldn"t have lost so much blood."
Liu Bingqian stared at Ye Feng with concern in her beautiful eyes, "Brute brother, how about this? I"ll go check on your sister"s situation. You stay here and don"t move."
"That"s fine." Ye Qian nodded deeply before suddenly saying, "Then how about I go over and take a look as well?"
"Don"t even think about it. Could it be that you want to see your own sister"s back?" Liu Bingqian was stunned for a moment before she coquettishly scolded him and glared at him.
"I …" Ye Feng was slightly surprised. After Liu Bingqian"s sudden reminder, his thoughts returned to the moment when he accidentally b.u.mped into his sister taking a bath while doing the Martial House"s mission.
As for his back, he had actually seen it before. Furthermore, he had carefully examined it.
All of a sudden, a scene flashed through his mind. His heart seemed to have fiercely thumped as he came to a realization.
"Wait, I remember now. Xue Yi, tell me honestly, is the location of the "small sword" imprint on your back where you just bled?"
Silence, a long silence.
Ye Xueyi let out a soft "Ah!" with her face burning with anger, she was somewhat speechless.
What her brother was saying was tantamount to announcing that he had seen her back before, making her a daughter with no face at all, especially when she was speaking in front of another woman.
A complicated expression appeared on Liu Bingqian"s face as she teased, "Brute brother, you"ve really seen your sister"s back. I didn"t think that you"d be such a person."
However, Ye Feng"s expression was solemn as he ignored her slightly mocking tone.
"Xue Yi, let me be serious with you. Check the area where your back is bleeding. Is that where the imprint of the "small sword" is?"
At first, she didn"t take her brother"s words seriously.
However, a moment later, she suddenly cried out in surprise. Her pretty face was full of surprise.
"Brother Zi Feng, this …" "How did you know? There really was blood from that place."
When Ye Feng heard this, he was slightly surprised. His sister"s shout confirmed his guess and his eyebrows gradually knitted together.
Liu Bing Qing originally wanted to confirm the situation herself, but before she could take a step forward, she saw that Ye Feng had already confirmed his sister"s injuries. She looked at him in confusion.
"What exactly is going on? Elder Brother Rascal, what kind of imprint is this" small sword "? Why would it bleed?"
Ye Feng thought for a moment and said after thinking for a while.
"If I"m not wrong, the "small sword" imprint on Xue Yi"s back should be some sort of inheritance …"
"Inheritance …" Liu Bingqian and Ye Xueyi"s beautiful eyes flashed with a strange light. They were confused.
"Originally, I didn"t dare to confirm it. I thought it was just an ordinary symbol. However, since it has started to prevent you from breaking through to the Martial Disciple realm, this inheritance shouldn"t be fake."
Ye Feng"s expression turned serious. He remembered that he had seen this Inheritance Seal before. That was to say, it should be related to his previous world.
However, even though he was no longer interested in the Inheritance Seal, he still had to worry about his sister"s current situation.
"Brother Zifeng, tell me what I should do now. I have run out of energy for the True Supreme Pill. It seems that I won"t be able to break through."
Ye Xueyi"s voice clearly carried a hint of disappointment. She also didn"t want to break through to become a Martial Disciple. This was the expectation of every Qi Condensation student. Wasn"t all the years of bitter cultivation just to break through to become a Martial Disciple and find a chance to awaken her Martial Spirit?
If he couldn"t break through due to this unknown inheritance mark, then he wouldn"t die from boredom.
Ye Wen pondered for a moment. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Don"t give up yet. The Inheritance Seal belongs to the Inheritance Seal. Breaking through to the next realm might give you a chance."
Ye Xueyi"s beautiful eyes flashed with a bright light. In the blink of an eye, she dimmed down, "What opportunity … That"s impossible. The spiritual energy of the True Supreme Pill has been depleted. I don"t think I need to refine another one, right?" … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …
"This is unintentional. Why don"t you take a look? Aren"t you currently within the Spiritual Concentration Formation?"
Ye Wen smiled calmly. As time pa.s.sed, the thought in his mind became clearer and clearer.
"This …" Ye Xueyi still did not understand what Ye Wen was trying to say.
He paused for a moment before continuing with a smile, "With the existence of the Spirit Gathering Array and the energy of the True Supreme Pill, can one run out of this s.p.a.ce?"
"Could it be …" A look of antic.i.p.ation suddenly appeared on Ye Xueyi"s pretty face.
"That"s right. You must calm yourself and try your best to sense the Spiritual Aura around you. However, this time, you must not draw any Spiritual Aura to the location of the inheritance mark."
Although Ye Xueyi could not see her brother"s current expression, she was still extremely excited and hurriedly nodded her head.
"Of course, this time, even if you beat me to death, you wouldn"t draw any Spiritual Qi onto that symbol."
After Ye Xueyi understood her brother"s meaning, her slightly dimmed eyes once again lit up.
She channeled the spirit energy and opened all the acupoints in her body, allowing the spirit gathering energy to flow into her body.
With this, the light in her eyes grew even brighter. "Big Brother Zi Feng, you"re right. The Spiritual Energy of the True Supreme Pill is still present in this Spirit Convergence Array."
"Then we"ll take advantage of this opportunity and quickly complete the breakthrough. If time pa.s.ses, the Spirit Convergence Array will weaken a bit," Ye Feng reminded with a faint smile.
"Okay." This time, she did not dare to show any underestimation. Not even a tiny bit of Spiritual Qi would be able to trace the inheritance mark.
The pain was slowly increasing with the pa.s.sage of time, but she didn"t care because she could see that hope was close at hand.
….
After a while, a stream of warmth flowed through her body, piercing through her heart like an electric shock.
As soon as the black mist touched Ye Xueyi"s body, it started to evaporate. As the golden light pierced through her body, the pain from her body gradually began to subside.
An unprecedented feeling arose in Ye Xueyi"s heart.
When she felt all of this, she opened her eyes in a daze. It was as if the surroundings were much clearer than before, whether it was sound or sight.
"This …"
Liu Bingqian had just experienced a breakthrough and now that she saw Ye Xueyi do the same thing, a smile immediately appeared on her face.
"Congratulations, Little Sister Xue Yi. You"ve also broken through to the Martial Disciple realm."
"That"s great." Ye Xueyi came back to her senses. Her pretty face was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with happiness and ecstasy.
"Brother Zi Feng, it"s all thanks to you …"
Before they could finish their words, streams of Spiritual Qi began to swirl up like a storm from where the two girls were standing. It was as if they had turned into two dragon columns.
The Nine Palace Diagram Array took three as its core.
Now that the two women had both broken through to the Martial Disciple realm, the process of a.s.similation had reached its highest point.
Whether Ye Wen could break through or not, and how much he could do, was up to this point.
A ray of light flashed across his eyes as the corners of his mouth curled up. "Come."
He took out 20,000 contribution points to refine the True Supreme Pill and then found two people at the ninth level of Qi Refining to break through together.
It would definitely not be easy to meet all of these conditions. The opportunity would not come again.
….
Right at that moment, a black and long shadow gradually became clearer outside the treasure cage.
This person was the trusted attendant of the Wind Palm Academy...
