Chapter 676: Lu Yinyin (1/2)
She looked like a beautiful flower wearing that youthful dress. Her eyes emitted a faint, blue glow like a lake reflecting the moon.
A woman like her was definitely a dream lover for many men. She had no lack of suitors. However, due to her high cultivation and background, she rarely cared for ordinary men.
Lu Lin was Lu Yinyin’s Third Uncle. The third person was an even older middle-aged man. He had an incredible aura and a lightning mark on his forehead. His name was Lu Jinxin, her Second Uncle and the strongest of the trio.
“Yinyin is right. Feiyun is treacherous and versed in hiding. We wouldn’t be able to find him so quickly without Linlin’s Darkblue Eye.” Lu Jinxin was more prudent than Lu Lin.
He brought an azure spirit bird along. It had a golden and red glow in its eyes, about as tall as a human.
Being able to subdue a spirit beast showed Jinxin’s powerful cultivation.
“You’re right, Second Brother. However, damn that Feiyun! We must avenge Liwei! Once we get the scripture, let’s flay that bastard.”
Lu Yinyin’s expression turned cold after hearing the name Liwei. Her hatred for Feiyun rose to the highest point.
Liwei was her younger sister who was cultivating at the tenth hall. However, after being stained by Feiyun, she returned to Mount Potala and stopped smiling from then on. She entered the Cave of Specters on her own volition for training and hasn’t come out in three years.
After Mount Potala found out about the Golden Silkworm Scripture, only Lu Lin and Lu Jinxin were sent out. However, Lu Yinyin demanded to go in order to avenge her sister. Plus, she had a special eye allowing her to become a very capable pursuer.
Though Lu Jinxin was initially against it, Lu Lin managed to convince him otherwise by bringing up her helpful abilities.
“It’s getting dark and the night is very dangerous here in Endless Land. Let’s camp for tonight and we’ll go all out tomorrow to chase Feng Feiyun. I’m sure it will be a matter of time before we catch a wounded Feiyun with our speed.” Jinxin contemplated before releasing his spirit bird to scout the vicinity. He then set up a formation around the group.
It didn’t matter how strong one might be. They needed to be on guard during the night in Endless Land lest they have a death wish.
Lu Yinyin cleaned up a boulder before sitting down to cultivate. Red clouds hovered around her so she looked just like a fairy from above. She looked even more mature and alluring than Lu Liwei.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes after sensing someone spying on her. She turned around and saw her Third Uncle behind her. Lu Lin seemed to be patrolling the area so that they could retreat when powerful beasts come.
‘Am I overthinking it?’ She naturally didn’t think her Third Uncle was spying on her. All in all, she felt safe with the two uncles nearby for protection.
***
Today, Feiyun has traveled more than 6,000 miles, far faster than the 300 miles pace like before.
He also stopped once nightfall, full of wounds. Though he tried his best to avoid the territories of the powerful beasts, he still fought more than ten of them and almost became food during two encounters.
His cultivation hasn’t fully recovered so strong regular beasts could take him down, let alone spirit beasts.
He found a small cave to rest with two entrances. Even if one was destroyed by beasts, he could still leave using the other side.
He erected various formations for the entrances - one hidden formation and three defensive formations on each side. Next, he put up another six defensive formations around him.
He was 6,000 miles in now. This was still considered the outskirts but was ten times more dangerous than the place last night. He needed to be careful since he could die here during his prime state. Right now, he was less than ten-percent.
Next, he began to cultivate the Golden Silkworm Scripture for the second time.
He wanted to finish the first diagram with its 1,800 variations tonight. Then for the next night, he could change his violet energy into golden silkworm energy. That’s when he would be able to fully heal himself.
This training session lasted until morning the next day. Golden gleams could be seen in his eyes. A golden glow also flowed on his skin.
His thick evil aura and bloodthirst have considerably decreased. In fact, he gained the dignified feel of an enlightened monk right now.
If he could change his internal energy completely, his aura would also change in a monumental fashion - becoming even more profound and calm than the old monks. He would also be able to hide his bloodthirst afterward.
If he had another day, he would be able to reach his peak state again. Alas, he couldn’t linger around for much longer. The pursuers would catch up in another twelve hours.
