Only Lu Xuan and Nangong Lie were left in the stone room. Lu Xuan smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect Brother Nangong to be a descendant of the Fire Qilin. No wonder your control over the fire yuan qi is so strong."
Nangong Lie couldn't help but show a hint of surprise when he heard this. He couldn't help but sit up straight. This was the secret of their Nangong family. Except for some core members, even ordinary family members didn't know about it. He didn't expect that Lu Xuan would be able to see through it.
After a quick thought, Nangong Lie said, "Brother Lu, did you … know it from the Flame Crystal Ball?"
"Indeed, I accidentally activated the blood essence of the Fire Qilin in the Flame Crystal Ball and saw the phantom of Senior Fire Qilin. That's how I learned some information."
"Fire Qilin phantom?" Nangong Lie's breathing couldn't help but quicken when he heard this. Their ancestors did have the blood of the Fire Qilin, but the power of the bloodline was very thin in their generation. Although they could still get some benefits from the Flame Crystal Ball with the thin bloodline in their body, activating the Fire Qilin phantom was rare.
Lu Xuan was clearly not a member of the Nangong family, but he actually activated the phantom of the Fire Qilin. How could Nangong Lie not be shocked? At this moment, he finally understood why Lu Xuan's strength suddenly increased. Obviously, the benefits that Lu Xuan obtained from the Flame Crystal Ball were far beyond his imagination.
"Brother Lu, your opportunity is really unique!" Nangong Lie praised, "Did Senior Fire Qilin leave any words?"
Lu Xuan shook his head and said, "No, it just said that I don't have its bloodline, but since there is such an opportunity, it still decided to give me some help."
This time, Lu Xuan did not tell the truth. After all, what the Fire Kirin had said at the time involved many secrets. It was not surprising that the Fire Kirin knew that he had obtained the approval of the Azure Dragon and Ice Phoenix. It must have learned of this when it communicated with the Azure Dragon phantom. But what surprised Lu Xuan was the second half of the Fire Kirin's sentence. It said that if fate willed it, they would meet again in the future. It also said that it hoped that he could fulfill the Sky Emperor's last wish.
From the looks of it, the Fire Qilin was definitely not dead and was most likely in the Heaven Domain. Moreover, the Fire Qilin should also know Ye Tian and stand on the side of the human race. The Fire Qilin was known as a divine beast and auspicious beast, and it was not just a rumor. In his "dream", he saw that the Fire Qilin's enemies were the Hundred Races of the Heaven Region, not humans.
When Nangong Lie heard this, he revealed a trace of envy and said, "Brother Lu, it is really enviable that you can get the Fire Qilin's favor. Although we have a trace of the Fire Qilin's bloodline in our bodies, there are very few people who can activate the Fire Qilin's shadow when accepting the inheritance."
Lu Xuan understood that the reason why Nangong Lie and the others could not activate the Fire Qilin phantom was most likely because their bloodline power was not enough. He also benefited from the powerful Azure Dragon bloodline, which was why the Fire Qilin phantom appeared.
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "Actually, from the words that Senior Fire Qilin revealed, he should not have died yet. If one day, Brother Nangong, you can break through the shackles of the Sky Sword Continent and go to the legendary Heaven Domain, you might have the chance to meet the Fire Qilin Senior's true body."
Nangong Lie smiled and shook his head gently, "Breaking through the shackles and going to the Heaven Domain has become a legend. I'm afraid that I will not see anyone break through the shackles in my lifetime. However, since Brother Lu has obtained some inheritance from Senior Fire Qilin, we seem to be even closer now. Haha. "
Lu Xuan smiled faintly. He had purposely brought this up because he wanted to improve his relationship with the Nangong family. Now, it was time to get down to business.
Lu Xuan coughed softly and slowly said, "Actually, the main reason I came to the Sacred Hall of Eight Directions isn't to get in touch with you, brother Nangong. I have other matters to attend to."
"Brother Lu, feel free to speak your mind. Today's matter came out of your mouth and entered my ears. If I didn't get Brother Lu's permission, I wouldn't reveal a single word," Nangong Lie said seriously.
"Brother Nangong, do you remember that two of my friends were poisoned by the Sikong family's Yinyang Soul-breaking Gu in the sealed grounds?"
"Of course I do," Nangong Lie nodded. Nangong Lie nodded. He also knew that the relationship between the two women and Lu Xuan was not as simple as ordinary friends. One of them died on the spot, while the other was saved by an extremely powerful pill from Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan sighed and said, "Although I used medicinal pills to save my friend's life, the Yin Yang Soul-Severing Parasite is simply too overbearing. The parasite remains in her body, and there's no way to remove it. Now, she can only use various spiritual medicines and Yuanli to prolong her life. However, this is not a long-term solution. Now, her body is deteriorating, and she's extremely weak.
Nangong Lie's heart skipped a beat and he asked, "Brother Lu, is your main purpose for coming here to save her?"
"That's right!" Lu Xuan nodded, "The Yinyang Soul-breaking Gu is a unique technique of the Sikong family. Other methods cannot cure it. This time, I came to find an antidote."
Nangong Lie frowned tightly when he heard this, and he said after a short while, "This is not easy … Brother Lu, do you know how to cure the Yinyang Soul-breaking Gu?"
"It's naturally to find the corresponding Yang Gu and absorb the Yin Gu."
Nangong Lie shook his head and smiled, "Haha, Brother Lu, you only know one thing and don't know the other … The Yinyang Soul-breaking Gu is a technique used by the Sikong family to control some of their subordinates. It does exist in pairs, but if the Sikong family uses the Yinyang Soul-breaking Gu to deal with their enemies, then they will naturally take out the corresponding Yang Gu to absorb the Yin Gu and use it to strengthen themselves. But if the enemy is poisoned by the Yin Gu and doesn't die, how do you think they will deal with the Yang Gu?"
Lu Xuan was shocked in his heart, and he said in astonishment, "Could it be that they will destroy the Yang Gu? Could it be that there is no cure for it? "
"There is no cure, but that may not be the case." Nangong Lie said slowly. His words made Lu Xuan's heart light up again. Nangong Lie continued, "In the Sikong family, there is a Gu called the Archaeozoic Insect. Those Yang Gu that have lost their corresponding Yin Gu will be fed to the Archaeozoic Insect, and through the Archaeozoic Insect, the Yinyang Soul-breaking Gu will be cultivated."
Lu Xuan's heart slightly sank, "You mean, to save Bing 'er, the only way is to take the Archaeozoic Insect from the Sikong family?"
"That's right! I don't think I need to say more about the importance of the Archaeozoic Insect to the Sikong family. Brother Lu, do you understand the difficulty of saving Bing 'er now? "
After listening to Nangong Lie's words, Lu Xuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The Archaeozoic Insect was the key to the Sikong family's cultivation of the Yinyang Soul-breaking Gu. Its importance was not comparable to ordinary Gu, and if he wanted to save Bing 'er … he had to take the Archaeozoic Insect.
In the heavily guarded Sikong family, the difficulty of stealing the Yinyang Soul-breaking Gu from the Sikong family's Archaeozoic Insect was definitely not ordinary. It probably far exceeded Lu Xuan's expectations.
