“Master…” the girl faintly sighed. Although she was touched, she could not bear seeing this fat elder rushing everywhere over even the tiniest possibility of curing her of her terminal illness.
But she knew that her terminal illness was a curse, although rumors mention of an ancient empress had managed to join up her meridians through her own powers, it was after all a rumor.
Such rumors proved the difficulty of joining up the meridians of this terminal illness!
The fat elder knew Lin Xintong’s thoughts and smiled, “Alright, coming here for such a phenomenon to enrich your experience is a must, even if there were no results from it. This phenomenon that happened within the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom had caused the Tai Ah royal family to be alarmed. Besides the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom, even neighboring kingdoms had sneaked into the Cloud Wilderness to investigate!”
“In the past few months, Tai Ah Divine Kingdom had sent out the Ling Long Wei, looking for the cause of the phenomenon. They were yearning that it was the revelation of some treasure. Since the Ling Long Wei were in the Cloud Wilderness, they might as well hold a warrior selection.”
After the fat elder’s monologue, the girl understood suddenly. It was no surprise the Ling Long Wei had drawn up a detailed map, that included even the thousand-household small tribes for the Cloud Wilderness.
“Alright, let’s get going. After passing that mountain, we will pass through the Lian tribal clan, then we will stop by at the Tao tribal clan. That is a big tribe of over a hundred thousand households. We can rest there.”
Just as the fat elder finished saying that, his heart skipped a beat and let out of quiet “eh” sound.
“Master, what’s the matter?”
“In the waterfall ahead, there’s someone there. It seems like a case of drowning. Let’s go take a look!” he said as he started moving forward through the dense forest. Although his steps looked slow, each step yielded a large distance, as if the ground under his feet had contracted in length.
Lin Xintong had also followed. There were people who lived at the peak, and would not interfere with the sufferings of the millions of people in this world. But if they were to actually meet it, they would interfere by saving lives.
…
Yi Yun did not know how long he had been under the plunge basin. From the previous night, after absorbing all of the desolate bones energy in one go, Yi Yun had jumped into the plunge basin, entering a cultivation trance state. Till now, Yi Yun was still not fully awake; it was as if he was still in a dream.
The desolate bones’ energy had already been digested completely by Yi Yun’s body, with not a drop left!
His body had entered a starvation mode once again.
In a daze, Yi Yun felt a soft hand grabbing him by the collar, lifting him up…
Yi Yun’s body was light; he felt like he was lying on a soft grass patch, and the soft hands were pressing on his chest.
“Puah!”
Yi Yun spit out a mouthful of water. This water wasn’t clear, but cloudy. It was mixed with Yi Yun’s impurities that resulted from his body cultivation.
“Eh?”
The girl who had saved Yi Yun did not reveal any expression of aversion, but was one of surprise. As a Desolate Heaven Master, she knew immediately what it meant by spitting out such water.
After Yi Yun woke up and recovered his vision, he had trouble opening his eyes from the bright sunlight.
