787 Enhancement In Preparation For The Battle (1/2)
Ji Lingxi rolled her eyes, but could not help the blush that adorned her cheeks, anticipation rising within her being.
'If it can help him repel some of the damage, I'd be more than happy to do so…'
Shangguan Lingxiu knew about the red light on Ji Lingxi, so it had been without hesitation that she said something like this.
It wasn't only Shangguan Lingxiu; Yun Yang, who had not planned to take Ji Lingxi along, was tempted by the suggestion as well. He could not help considering the plausibility of this course of action.
”You've spent the whole day outwitting that Mr. Nian today. Have some rest and a good meal before you go.” Shangguan Lingxiu left to prepare the meal.
”Are you really so confident? I want to know the truth!” Ji Lingxi stared at Yun Yang, concern spilling through her gaze.
”Confidence…” started Yun Yang, ”If was only me, I don't have much of it. However, if you were to help me, it multiplies.”
”No problem! Just tell me how I can help!” Ji Lingxi was ecstatic, feeling that she was finally of value and had some use after cultivating so hard, for so long.
Ji Lingxi was genuinely happy that Yun Yang said that he needed her help in doing something.
'I can actually finally do something for him?'
'I'm not just an insignificant existence behind his shadow, never being able to handle reality!'
Although Ji Lingxi's current cultivation base was above that of Yun Yang's, she was the weaker one no matter how she put up a tough front and oppressed him with practices when they were together, subconsciously becoming the one to be taken care of.
Ji Lingxi could not figure it out either.
'I'm not bad, I'm better than Yun Yang. Why do I need his care everywhere?'
Truth be told, Ji Lingxi liked being taken care of like this very much.
Yun Yang pulled her into the room and retrieved seven Eastern Amethysts, saying with a smile, ”What I very much need you to help me do now is to wholly absorb the energy in these crystals and complete this process in the fastest and safest way possible.”
”What are all these? Resources? Energy crystals?” Ji Lingxi was curious.
”I'm not particularly sure what they are, but for now, they're rare gems,” said Yun Yang, ”Cultivate your art later, I'll help you. When our mystical Qi converges at their maximum point, gather two flows of internal energy to circulate in one cosmic orbit and enhance your cultivation base as much as you can. We must escalate our abilities further during these two days of respite. Then, we depart!”
As he spoke, Yun Yang went into action. He first set up a simple illusion formation and arranged the seven Eastern Amethysts with the Big Dipper shape in the center of the formation. Then, he connected them with a golden thread while another end of the thread was held in his palm.
This made a mini convergence formation of spiritual Qi. With the golden thread acting as a lead, it would become an optimum spiritual Qi channel with the triggering of mystical Qi.
”Come!”
The two of them sat cross-legged, facing each other across the purple crystals.
