Free Web NovelChapter 293: Chapter 116: Bear Demon Sword Splits into Nine, Shackles of Flesh and Blood Shattered
On the Bronze Plain, sect disciples occasionally appear for training.
Among these disciples, some don’t recognize Li Xuan, but everyone knows Feng Mengrou and has heard of major events in the sect.
Thus, these cultivators did not bother the two. Only waited until they went far, then whispered among themselves, secretly laughing as they spoke.
Feng Mengrou felt incredibly desolate.
Yet somehow, her heart was filled with an unprecedentedly intense emotion.
This emotion was like a fierce fire driving her, making her feel happy just being with her junior brother.
It was a kind of grand passion she had dreamed of, but never thought she would actually encounter.
Within such emotion, even in death... she would be happy.
The two slowed their steps, following the map gradually towards the deepest part of the Bronze Plain, near the Valley of the Dead.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed.
However, what puzzled Feng Mengrou was that their luck was quite good; despite delving deep into the Bronze Plain, they hadn’t encountered a single demon along the way.
Another night, the bonfire rose, and the Bronze Grass leaves grew wildly, reaching lengths of two or three feet, like thorns.
Grass leaves flickered with metallic luster, and if ordinary people passed here, they might be cut in half or tortured by the swaying leaves in the wind, turning into nutrients.
The red glow of the fire illuminated one side of the Bronze Grass leaves, while the other side was dark, eerie, silent, lonely...
Feng Mengrou took out a meat pill, ate one, then handed a bottle to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan opened the bottle and gulped it down.
The sesame-sized meat pill slipped into his mouth.
No choice, that’s his appetite.
And this place isn’t like the Great Yin territory, he couldn’t go back to Xinci Temple for meals, relying only on Feng Mengrou’s pills. Fortunately, she brought quite a lot...
Meat Pill’s effect was akin to a Fasting Pill; consuming it not only prevents hunger but also avoids bodily functions.
"Junior brother’s appetite is truly big," Feng Mengrou said gently, though in a strangely ordinary situation, she seemed accustomed.
If you love someone, shouldn’t you embrace all their flaws?
If they have secrets, you shouldn’t question too much, for that... is true loyalty in love.
Li Xuan grinned, holding Senior Sister Feng in his arms.
He looked up, the pupils reflecting moonlight with a hint of joy.
These days, his demon hunting speed was swift, with notifications like "Demon Points +15," "Demon Points +20," "Demon Points +10," "Demon Points +7+7+8+8" frequently appearing...
"Heh... hehehe..."
He couldn’t help but laugh joyfully.
His white teeth, gleaming in the moonlight, revealed a creepy nut shape, typical of the "Rotting Buddha Corpse Rat" demon blood.
In Senior Sister Feng’s embrace, hearing this laughter made her feel even sweeter.
She just felt junior brother’s laughter contained strength, determination, and unyielding spirit, giving her a strong sense of security.
Even in such dire situations, junior brother could still laugh.
She gently touched junior brother’s firm chest, asking, "What is there to be happy about?"
Li Xuan bowed and said, "Being with Senior Sister anywhere makes me happy."
A strong sense of joy suddenly rose in Feng Mengrou’s heart.
Such strong joy made her feel even her toes were nervously tensed.
"Indeed."
She replied softly.
Then, she slowly closed her eyes and blissfully fell asleep.
Li Xuan glanced at his panel:
[Demon Points: 145]
Just over half a month had passed...
Glancing at the sleeping sister in his arms, Li Xuan felt a slight twinge of guilt, knowing that Senior Sister was only influenced by his Spirit, resulting in her twisted perception.
Otherwise... wouldn’t anyone think of the underlying issue?
How unwell must a genius be to sever an arm voluntarily?
Yet, Senior Sister accepted it.
For a crippled disciple, she almost defied the sect, something no sane cultivator would do.
Yet, Senior Sister did.
Pa...
Papa...
Li Xuan suddenly threw the map into the bonfire.
The map was complex, but he had memorized it.
He believed Feng Mengrou hadn’t memorized it.
So they were going to "get lost."
During this "lost" process, he would clear all the demons in the Bronze Plain, and then head to the Valley of the Dead.
...
...
Lingyi Sect.
Before the mountain gate.
A team of over a dozen cultivators was gathered here.
The leader was a middle-aged man in luxurious attire, graceful, with eyes filled with hope and confidence.
This man was none other than Song Yinzi, leader of Iron Wall Peak, one of the five peaks of the Lingyi Sect.
"Thank you, Peak Master Feng."
Song Yinzi clasped his hands towards another imposing man, "Without your final support, I wouldn’t have been able to leave the sect so easily to seek the Ancient Land of the Rabbit Assembly."
Feng Xiongyi laughed, "All five of us have been stuck at the Middle Tier Soldier Lord realm for years; without those high-grade spiritual stones, it’s impossible to advance."
Song Yinzi sighed, "These spiritual stones can trap a person at one realm for decades or even centuries... And even if one somehow gets spiritual stones, without higher realm inheritance, it’s a dead end.
Why would someone as talented as Peak Master Feng stay here?
Why not leave with me, and set sail overseas, searching for that Ancient Land of the Rabbit Assembly.
Truth be told, I have some leads, this journey is not aimless." free𝑤ebnovel.com
Feng Xiongyi replied, "I want to try trading with various parties to see if I can find higher-grade spiritual stones."
Song Yinzi smiled and shook his head.
Trade?
If one could obtain high-grade spiritual stones through trade, there would’ve been movements long ago; why wait until now?
