#398 - The Crisis of Shangguan Wanwan and Lilia

After Lanlan devoured the essence and blood energy of the four Beast Kings, the horn on its forehead fully grew, occasionally flashing a wisp of blue light.

It hopped and skipped to Jun Wuxie, bringing its horn close to him, as if showing off, making cooing sounds.

"Little fellow, feeling good?"

Jun Wuxie touched its horn and picked it up.

"Iya."

Lanlan licked his hand with its pink tongue, looking content.

"It's a pity, I don't know when you'll grow next time."

Jun Wuxie sighed, this little fellow's way of growing is very unique.

It needs to devour the essence and blood energy of beasts with strong bloodlines.

Ancient remnant species of Beast Kings are all top-tier quasi-sage beasts.

Hunting eleventh-order quasi-sage beasts is not easy, they are rarely seen normally.

Besides, even if he has that strength in the future, it is impossible for him to hunt other lives for his own benefit for no reason. That kind of crazy behavior is not his style.

Putting down Lanlan, Jun Wuxie came to the corpses of the four Beast Kings.

He took out a six-star supreme-grade battle sword from his storage ring and began to dissect the corpses.

Eleventh-order Beast Kings are treasures from head to toe.

"These beast skins and snake skins are good things. In the future, find a master craftsman to see if they can fuse the four types of skins to make soft armor. The defense will definitely be excellent!"

His movements were very skilled, and he quickly peeled off the skin of the Transforming Serpent.

Then, he took out the snake gall and beast core, dug out two pairs of snake eyes, and removed the teeth. Whether for alchemy or weapon refining, they are top-grade materials.

Moreover, the quantity is very sufficient, because the bodies of the Beast Kings are really huge.

Immediately afterwards, he began to dissect the other Beast Kings.

Before long, he had taken out the most precious things from the four Beast Kings.

"Well, can't waste it, the flesh and blood are also good things. Although the essence and blood energy has been devoured by Lanlan, the energy content in the flesh and blood has been lost a lot, but it is still a nourishing delicacy!"

He began to dissect the flesh and blood again, storing them in different storage rings.

"By the way, their beast bones are also good things, which can be used as weapon refining materials…"

He made the best use of everything, not wanting to waste a single bit.

After all, these are all top-level resources, even if he doesn't use them, he can exchange them for spirit coins.

Of course, he will definitely not take them out for auction.

These things are not something you can buy with spirit coins at any time.

After doing all this, the four Beast Kings were left with only some worthless internal organs.

At this moment, he discovered that Mu Xue'lan had woken up at some point and was watching him quietly in the distance.

"How is your soul recovery?"

Jun Wuxie stepped forward to ask, seeing that her condition, apart from her complexion recovering a little ruddy color, her energy and spirit seemed to have not improved, and she was still weak.

Could it be that the [Spirit Marrow Liquid] is not effective for her soul injury?

"It's a little better, it may take a period of recuperation to slowly recover."

Mu Xue'lan shook her head.

Jun Wuxie took out a space bottle and filled it with some [Spirit Marrow Liquid], about five or six catties.

"Keep it safe."

He put the bottle in Mu Xue'lan's hand.

The amount inside, let alone repairing her soul injury, is enough to repair the soul injuries of ten people.

Mu Xue'lan did not refuse, nor did she say anything, but she was a little moved in her heart.

The preciousness of the Spirit Marrow Liquid goes without saying.

This kind of rare treasure can have a very good effect even on the soul injuries of the Holy Sect.

She had taken a few drops before and experienced it herself, so she was naturally very clear about it.

If it were taken out to sell, it would definitely be priceless, a drop would be sky-high, and its effect would be enough to make people crazy!

Because, in addition to repairing the soul, it can also nourish the soul, making the martial artist's soul stronger.

In the world, many powerful Saint Sect experts have cultivated for thousands of years until they die of old age. Why is it so difficult to break through to the Half-Saint realm?

A large part of the reason is that the soul strength is not enough!

If the soul strength is insufficient, it is difficult to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth and touch the threshold of the holy realm.

Half-Saint, although not a true holy realm, is equivalent to stepping into the holy realm with half a foot.

If you want to step into this special realm, you must have a strong enough soul to cultivate the soul into a half-Yuanshen, communicate some of the laws between heaven and earth, and vaguely touch the threshold of the law.

That is to say, the [Spirit Marrow Liquid] can give those pinnacle experts who have pursued the Half-Saint realm all their lives hope of stepping into the Half-Saint realm.

She remembered the Lieyang Flower seeds auctioned in the ancient city of the Southern Region a few months ago. Why did they fetch such a terrible sky-high price?

Because the flames of the Lieyang Flower seeds can be used to temper the soul and strengthen the power of the soul while resisting the burning pain.

But this is very risky. In this respect, the effect is far inferior to [Spirit Marrow Liquid].

"We have to leave. When we came out of the City of Buried Corpses, I asked Wan'wan and Lily to wait for us outside Tongyou Ancient City. I don't know how they are now, whether they have encountered any danger."

Jun Wuxie was still a little worried.

Mu Xue'lan didn't speak, stood up, her body swayed slightly.

"Can you walk?"

She nodded and stepped down the stone steps with some difficulty.

"I'll carry you."

Jun Wuxie looked at her like this, stepped forward, scooped up the bend of her legs, and picked her up.

They quickly walked down the mountain.

Then locked on to the due west, and sped away.

"When we get to Tongyou Ancient City, can we leave this secret world?"

On the way, Mu Xue'lan asked in a cold voice.

"According to the seniors of the Burial Clan, there is a way for us to leave this world. As long as we get there, I believe we can leave soon."

"You...can you walk slower, don't be so fast."

"Ah?"

Jun Wuxie looked at her with some surprise.

"I don't want to leave so soon. My current situation still needs some time to recover. I don't want to return to the sect like this and let the people of the sect see their master in such a mess."

"After leaving here, you don't have to return to the sect directly. Just find a place to heal your injuries."

"That's different."

Jun Wuxie:…

He didn't understand, what's different?

Do you have to stay in this ancient burial ground secret realm where you feel uncomfortable all over to heal your injuries?

"Let's meet up with Wan'wan and Lily first."

Jun Wuxie's speed not only did not decrease, but became faster.

At the same time.

At the end of the west, a black city stands on the earth.

This city is very huge, the city walls are ink black, and even the buildings in the city are ink black.

The city is shrouded in mist, and dark clouds are over the city, giving people a suffocating sense of oppression.

In front of the east gate, three figures stood facing the city.

Inside the city gate, ghosts danced wildly, and the streets were full of strange corpses covered with black hair.

A flower like the sun floats at the exit inside the city gate, swaying thousands of rays of light, forming a Lieyang barrier of several meters in radius, blocking all the ghosts and black-haired evil corpses outside.

Countless corpses and ghosts roared outside the Lieyang barrier, but they never dared to touch the barrier.

Inside the barrier, Lily and Shangguan Wan'wan stood shoulder to shoulder, sometimes looking at the things outside the barrier, sometimes looking at the three people outside the city gate.

"Shangguan Wan'wan, why bother? As the master of the Demon Appearance Sect, you should know how to weigh the pros and cons. Why do you have to protect that half-demon girl?"

"Sect Master Shangguan, if you hand this woman over to me, I guarantee that I will not attack you."

"Hehe, we really didn't expect the Lieyang Flower to be in your hands. Your Lieyang Flower, releasing Lieyang Fire like this, how long can it last? When its Lieyang power is exhausted, the things in the city will swarm up, and then you may not be able to escape becoming one of them! A wise man submits to circumstances, Sect Master Shangguan, do you really want to bury yourself for a half-demon?"

"Hehe, you people who claim to be the orthodox of the Xuanmen are really shameless to the extreme!" Shangguan Wan'wan mocked mercilessly: "The dignified Holy Sect, in order to deal with Jun Wuxie, does not hesitate to use such low-handed methods, and wants to threaten him with a weak woman? Do you still want to be shameless?"

"Unexpectedly, the master of the Demon Appearance Sect is such an idealist. Should I say you are stubborn or ridiculous? Doing things doesn't matter the means, only the result matters. Obeying the rules is only because the temptation of interests is not enough. In the face of huge interests, what face, reputation, and bottom line seem extremely ridiculous!"

"Shangguan Wan'wan, don't you plan to convince us? You should know very well what the things on Jun Wuxie mean, so you should stop wishful thinking and hand this woman over to me obediently. It is the only way out for you to save yourself!"

"Dream on!"

Shangguan Wan'wan sneered.

It's not that she's not afraid of death, and she doesn't want to die.

But she couldn't hand Lily over to the Holy Sect and Kaitian Sword Sect's Holy Sect.

If Lily is really handed over, how will that little man look at her?

He might hate her to the core, right?

Along with the Demon Appearance Sect, he may be hated by him in the future.

She couldn't help but look at Lily's lower abdomen, and then couldn't help but put her hand on her lower abdomen.

Some things, once they happen, can never go back.

Her destiny has long been tied to that little man.

This may be a karmic relationship.

But she knew that even if it was a karmic relationship, she had to go on.

Those days in the Secret Realm of Lust Tribulation completely changed her life.

"Damn it, is that kid coming or not?"

Lieyang Flower was about to cry, its Lieyang Fire was supposed to never go out as long as life went on.

But now, releasing it with such intensity, let alone never going out, being able to last two days is the limit!

Now, it had been continuously releasing it for more than a day.

It didn't even hesitate to refine its own flower seeds to replenish the essence of the blazing sun.

But even so, how long could it last?

“Sister Wanwan, Young Master Jun will arrive in time, right?”

Lilia's eyes revealed a hopeful look.

She touched her lower abdomen, her heart filled with a stronger attachment to life than ever before.

“He will.”

Shangguan Wanwan comforted her.

She looked towards the vast and boundless land outside the city, but sighed in her heart.

Little one, if you don't come soon, your woman and son will be buried here.

She murmured to herself.

“This seat wants to see how stubborn you can be, whether you really prefer to become those mindless, evil corpses!”

The three Saint Sect members sneered.

Time passed little by little.

The Blazing Sun Flower's blazing sun fire gradually weakened.

Outside the barrier, those floating ghost shadows and black-haired evil corpses shrieked and roared as they attacked the barrier, but quickly retreated with miserable cries, their bodies emitting bursts of black smoke as they were burned by the blazing sun fire.

“It's over, we're really going to be finished here today! Kid, damn you, you really tricked me badly…”

The Blazing Sun Flower regretted its decision. If it had known this would happen, it would have refused this deadly mission even if it meant being beaten to death.
