Chapter 354 (1/2)
<hr>
After about two hours, there was a painful and mournful scream from the bamboo house. It would be loud, then soft as it occurred intermittently. There also seemed to be sounds of scratching and fighting.
Yan Tianhen and Lin Xuanzhi exchanged glances, both of them worried over the situation inside.
However, the two of them remembered Esteemed Lan Yue’s instructions and did not move. They just made plans to rush in immediately if something big happened or when Esteemed Lan Yue called their names.
Pitiful groans lasted for about half an hour until it gradually stopped. Fortunately, the situation they imagined where the room completely exploded didn’t occur.
Yan Tianhen’s tight nerves finally relaxed.
Another three days and three nights pa.s.sed until on one clear morning, the door of the bamboo house was pushed open.
Esteemed Lan Yue’s face was pale, but his steps were still steady and strong. He came out and glanced at the two men who were still sitting nearby. He softly said, “Come with me.”
Yan Tianhen hastily stood up and followed Esteemed Lan Yue towards the fruit tree forest.
Lin Xuanzhi asked, “What’s the matter with Martial Uncle?”
Esteemed Lan Yue said, “I managed to cure him in time, and his life is secure now.”
Yan Tianhen breathed out a sigh of relief, “It’s good that his life is no longer in danger.”
Esteemed Lan Yue looked at Yan Tianhen with complicated eyes, “I’m not saying that his life is safe, but yours.”
“…Me?”
“If you see him like this again in the future, don’t get close to him and quickly come to me for help. Huai Yu… he had some mishaps with his cultivation before, so once his mental state is severely upset or he’s suddenly expended too much spiritual Qi, he would suffer a Qi deviation. He’d be unable to recognize his relatives and kill anyone on sight. Before, there was almost a big problem because of this.”
Yan Tianhen gasped and Lin Xuanzhi nearly broke out in cold sweat.
Yan Tianhen frowned and murmured, “How did my master become like this? He’s so powerful. Is it because he encountered danger, so he overused his spiritual Qi?”
Esteemed Lan Yue replied coldly, “He courted disaster himself. No one in the whole Five Continents has a higher level of cultivation than him. He must have tried to breakthrough the barrier of the Five Continents — if it could be so easily broken by him, then like h.e.l.l it would be called the Five Continents’ barrier!”
Yan Tianhen couldn’t help but secretly smack his lips. It seemed that Esteemed Lan Yue was extremely angry to the point of swearing this time.
Lin Xuanzhi frowned slightly, “It seems that the barrier truly cannot be opened.”
“Even if there is an opportunity to open it, it’s not so simple and crude.” Esteemed Lan Yue glanced at him.
Yan Tianhen was very worried. He stamped his foot anxiously, “My master’s cultivation must almost be beyond his limit. That’s why he tried to cross the barrier of the Five Continents. Breaking Sword Peak’s Master went into closed-door cultivation a few days ago. Until now, there hasn’t been any movement and I don’t know what the situation is, but Uncle Mo said that he was entering closed-door death cultivation. What do we do, now that my master has reached the point where he has no choice but to make a breakthrough, the barrier of the Five Continents is still like this ? It’s not like he can cripple his own cultivation, right?”
Lin Xuanzhi grasped the important points and narrowed his eyes. “A magic treasure that can deceive the Dao of Heaven?”
“It’s rare in this world.” Esteemed Lan Yue nodded.
The soul plate in Lin Xuanzhi’s sea of consciousness said, “It seems that this Huai Yu’s background is not small.”
As the name implied, a magic treasure that could deceive heaven could really do just that.
This kind of magic treasure was mostly used to change one’s fate and hide against the Dao of Heaven.
It should at least be a divine artifact at the
The Lin Xuanzhi of today could at most craft Treasure Level tools. When his soulfire one day improved to a Purple Soul level which had never been seen in the Five Continents and when his cultivation also reached the Earth Realm, then there would be a possibility of him crafting a Celestial Level tool as well.
Esteemed Lan Yue didn’t explain anything either. He suppressed the Qi that was running rampant in Esteemed Huai Yu’s body for three days and three nights. Right now, he was also very tired. He pressed his forehead and said to Lin Xuanzhi and Yan Tianhen, “Xuanzhi, stay here and look after Esteemed Huai Yu for a few days first. If there is anything that happens, please let me know.”
Lin Xuanzhi nodded, “Understood.”
Before Esteemed Lan Yue left, he returned to the bamboo house and looked at Esteemed Huai Yu.
Esteemed Huai Yu had fallen into a deep sleep at this time. His mouth, which had always spewed words that p.i.s.sed people off, was slightly open. It looked cute and it made him seem different from his usual character and style.
Esteemed Lan Yue sighed, “When you wake up, you’ll surely blame me for coaxing you to come here. But if you continue to stay in the Nine Lands, I’m afraid that sooner or later, this illness will kill you. If you want to blame me, then blame me.”
Esteemed Huai Yu naturally couldn’t hear a word. He just moved his mouth as if he were chewing something.
Esteemed Lan Yue looked at him for a moment, then got up and left.
Yan Tianhen laid beside Esteemed Huai Yu and looked after him.
A sleeping Esteemed Huai Yu wasn’t difficult to take care of. He didn’t even turn over all night. Yan Tianhen soon dozed off and fell asleep beside Esteemed Huai Yu.
