Chapter 384: Absorbing the Qilin Horn (2/2)
However, sensing this, Xue Wei was not too unhappy. He put away the Black Scorpion Lily and began absorbing the energy in the air alongside the energy within his horn.
There was no leakage of energy from his own horn, and a handful of the other experts also managed to absorb the energy with no leakage. Still, the majority did not have a firm enough control over their absorption rate.
This meant that although they would gain the elemental affinity, it would not be as strong as if they could consume larger quantities of the energy.
Xue Wei was not standing on ceremony with them. They were not his friends, and they were not his followers either. Absorbing the energy that was in the air was beneficial to him, and he was not stealing it from anyone as it would dissipate if he did not consume it.
The sounds of thunder and the flashes of lightning grew increasingly dense as the days passed.
Some had come close to the mountain for the sake of finding treasures. They all assumed that the strange phenomenon was a sign of a new treasure being born.
But no matter how much they scoured the mountain, it was impossible for them to locate a treasure, and after around a week, the thunder and lightning became less frequent. After two weeks, it had stopped altogether.
Inside the cave, the thunder and lightning elemental Qi, which had permeated through the air, was long since gone. Now it was dense with other energies; some were soul energies, essences of heavens and earth, Qi, and Spiritual Energy. There was even the occasional elemental affinity of varying types.
Although they had finished absorbing the Qilin Horns, they were all still in closed-door cultivation. They had initially planned to stay for a month, and Xue Wei was adamant about keeping this time to cultivate.
The more their strength rose, the higher the chance they had of surviving in the Blue Phoenix Manor.
Seeing that all of them had varying degrees of success in absorbing the Qilin Horn, he now had more faith in their strength.
The only two who had not consumed the Qilin Horns were Bai Tianyi and Luoluo. Neither of them could use them, so they had focused on their Spiritual Energy during this time, consumed numerous treasures that enhanced their strength.
Luoluo was now like a seventeen-year-old woman, she was alluring and attractive, but although her age had only risen with two years, Xue Wei did not doubt that her strength had taken a qualitative leap upwards.
The small snake was still attached to her wrist, and he could sometimes feel a dense aura being released from it.
It seemed that the legacy that Luoluo had gotten was not ordinary.
