Recently, Zhou Wen had absorbed quite a number of Essence Energy Crystals. There was no lack of Mythical crystals among them. He felt that the Essence Energy Pill seemed to have reached its limit and was about to break through.
However, for some reason, he couldn't take that step at the critical moment. It was as though something was missing.
What's missing? Zhou Wen looked at the diamond-like Essence Energy Pill in front of him and frowned in thought.
It was clearly not energy. It was just that the Primordial Body's Essence Energy Pill had already absorbed quite a number of Mythical Essence Energy Crystals. Be it the quality or quantity of energy, it far exceeded the requirements of the Primordial Body Life Soul's evolution.
If it's not a lack of energy, why can't the Essence Energy Pill evolve? Zhou Wen thought about it but couldn't figure it out.
As he was thinking, his phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone to take a look and realized that it was from Feng Qiuyan.
Feng Qiuyan this person normally did not speak much. But the words that he said, the average person could not really understand.
"Coach, thank you for your guidance. I've already overcome my weakness and have made some achievements with my saber techniques. If you have the time, can you help me take a look at my saber techniques?"
Zhou Wen looked at Feng Qiuyan's saber techniques and was as baffled as ever. However, he was already used to it, so he casually replied, "The earliest I can return to school is the day after tomorrow. I'll look for you when the time comes."
"I can't wait. Coach, which path do you take? I'll look for you," Feng Qiuyan replied.
Zhou Wen sent his route to Feng Qiuyan. After all, there was nothing to do on the way, so it wasn't bad for someone to welcome him.
After putting away the Essence Energy Pill, Zhou Wen continued grinding the Deer Terrace Pavilion dungeon. The advancement of Mirror Eyes was very smooth. At this speed, it would probably take a few days to advance to an Evolved Body.
As Zhou Wen was gaming, he suddenly felt a tattoo on his body tremble. Without waiting for him to summon it, the Companion Beast automatically left his body.
"Neonate, what happened?" Zhou Wen asked curiously when he saw Demonic Neonate staring at the lake by the side of the road.
"Food," Demonic Neonate answered, her gaze still fixed on the lake.
Zhou Wen really didn't know what food Demonic Neonate was referring to. This was because her food was too strange. Even Guardians could be treated as food. Demonic Neonate was the only one.
The lake by the side of the road wasn't too big. Truth Listener could directly envelop it, but it didn't discover anything amiss.
The lake was filled with ordinary creatures. There were quite a number of fish and shrimp, but there were no dimensional creatures. There were no dimensional zones nearby.
He looked at the map on his phone and found that there was no lake marked on the map.
"Where's the food?" Zhou Wen could only ask Demonic Neonate.
The demonic infant stretched out a finger and pointed to the center of the lake.
Zhou Wen noticed that she was pointing at the surface of the lake and not inside. Hence, he narrowed his eyes and looked over.
In the middle of the lake, there was a bamboo pole standing in the lake. A scarecrow was hanging on the bamboo pole.
"The food you mentioned is that scarecrow?" Zhou Wen asked as he pointed at it.
The demonic infant nodded, her eyes still looking at the straw doll.
As she had finished eating all the Longevity Fruits she had obtained previously, Demonic Neonate hadn't eaten anything in the past few days. She was probably a little hungry.
"I'll help you get it back," Zhou Wen said.
"It's dangerous," Demonic Neonate shook her head and said with a serious expression.
Demonic Neonate rarely spoke, so it was the first time he had heard her say that it was dangerous. Zhou Wen couldn't help but size up the scarecrow in the middle of the lake.
Just looking at its body, there was indeed nothing special about it. The straw doll was made of straw, and Truth Listener could clearly hear its internal structure. Apart from straw, there was nothing else.
Apart from its body made of straw, it also had tattered clothes and a straw hat. It didn't look special. The straw doll was placed here in the past to prevent water birds from preying on the fish in the lake.
It had been here for quite some time. The straw hat and clothes had already faded and rotted. The body made of straw was also a little moldy. No matter how he looked at it, it was just an ordinary scarecrow.
Demonic Neonate bit her lip and glanced at the scarecrow. She actually jumped back onto the Great Might Vajra Bull's back and said, "Let's go."
Zhou Wen was alarmed as he turned to look at the scarecrow. He saw that it was still standing there like a dead object. He couldn't tell what was terrifying about it.
However, Zhou Wen still believed in Demonic Neonate's judgment. He didn't stay any longer and got the Great Might Vajra Bull to leave the lake.
After leaving the lake, Demonic Neonate even turned her head to take a look. Clearly, she still had some thoughts.
What's that? Zhou Wen wanted to figure out what the scarecrow was.
"Food." Demonic Neonate couldn't explain it clearly. All she said was food.
Zhou Wen secretly memorized this place to prevent himself from provoking the scarecrow when he passed by in the future. Something that even Demonic Neonate was wary of was definitely no trifling matter.
After walking for half a day, he suddenly saw a cyan bird flying at an extremely fast speed in the distant sky. Soon, it arrived above Zhou Wen.
The huge cyan bird circled a few times before landing from the sky. A figure floated down. It was none other than Feng Qiuyan.
"Coach, I'm here." Feng Qiuyan landed in front of the Great Might Vajra Bull. The cyan bird also turned into a tattoo and returned to Feng Qiuyan's body.
"You really don't waste a single moment," Zhou Wen said with a smile.
Feng Qiuyan said seriously, "After I overcame my weakness, my saber skills improved a little. I really want you to take a look at me, so I immediately rushed over."
"Then let me see how much your saber skills have improved." Zhou Wen placed Ya 'er on the Vajra Bull's back and flew to the grass beside him.
Feng Qiuyan didn't stand on ceremony. He summoned his Life Soul Saber and held it in his hand, preparing to attack.
"Wait. You said that you have restrained your weakness, so what do you think is your weakness?" Zhou Wen said as he stopped Feng Qiuyan's attack.
Feng Qiuyan said seriously, "I've considered this question for a long time. Although there are many problems with my saber skills, those problems can be resolved through cultivation. Therefore, they can only be said to be flaws and not weaknesses. No matter how I think about it, I only have one weakness, and that is loneliness. "
"Loneliness?" Zhou Wen didn't understand what Feng Qiuyan meant.
"Yes, it's loneliness. This is because my saber skills are all for fighting alone. Therefore, if I encounter experts of the same level attacking me, it's very easy for me to be defeated due to my stamina or being overwhelmed," Feng Qiuyan said.
Zhou Wen thought to himself, Can this be considered a weakness? If this is a weakness, then all creatures in this world have such a weakness.
"Then how did you overcome this weakness?" Zhou Wen was somewhat curious.
