Chapter 589: New or Old Image? (1/2)

Bai Tianyi and Xue Wei had contracted one another a long time ago, and while they did not usually pay attention to this, now they could see the extreme benefit that Xue Wei's advance brought Bai Tianyi.

Although the night was cold and the wind was howling as it blew above the frozen ground, Xue Wei and the others were cultivators, so it had no influence on them, as they all protected Bai Tianyi and kept vigilant to ensure that nothing would be able to attack them by surprise.

The moon was high in the sky, and although it was a frosty night, the darkness was not dense, as the moonlight cascaded the pale and soft light down upon their group.

The surroundings were silent, and not even hunting beasts could be heard in the vicinity, the only noise was from the howling wind as it passed by.

A situation like this would have long since frightened a mortal, but the people present were all extraordinary cultivators, and none of them found the atmosphere stiffening or frightening.

In fact, all of them enjoyed the cooling air as it caressed their skin and kept them alert. The beautiful moonlight brought out an ethereal atmosphere in the frozen land, making the surroundings seem otherworldly.

Bai Tianyi was sitting on a patch of ground. The moonlight surrounded him, but even the pale and beautiful silver light could not rival the bright and rich golden flashes that constantly pulsed out from his body.

Unlike Xue Wei, who kept wantonly absorbing the energy from the area, Bai Tianyi kept releasing bursts of energy, which strongly resembled golden lightning bolts.

These lightning bolts looked terrifying, and one could sense the lethal energy contained within, but none of them touched their group, making it clear that they had no intention of harming any of them.

As the moon began to descend from the sky, a rumbling sound reverberated through the heavens and earth. The sound of thunder was unexpected, and the entire ground shook alongside the noise.

Alongside this unexpected thunder, the golden lightning bolts suddenly became agitated, and numerous golden sparks erupted from Bai Tianyi's body.

Bai Tianyi was different from Luoluo. He was an artificial spirit, and his existence had always been a challenge when compared to the true spirits. However, what he was experiencing now was similar to the metamorphosis that Xue Wei went through just before.

Bai Tianyi was becoming a true spirit, and his body was slowly changing from an artificial spirit body into a projection made by his own energy.

This change was much slower than Xue Wei's. Although they both changed, they were, after all, two completely different kinds of creatures, and thus, their advances were also different.

Xue Wei was eager to find out what changes had happened in his body, but he understood the severity of protecting Bai Tianyi first.
