In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yan had already rested in the stone room for two days. Adding the time from before, it had already been ten days since Xiao Yan had entered the Desolate Ancient Ruins.
If one were to carefully calculate the time of ten days, it was likely that the members of the four great clans had already arrived at the Ancient Forest. If Xiao Yan were to continue staying in this place and the Soul Gathering Fruit was obtained by the members of the four great clans before him, he would really lose all hope. After all, with just the current Xiao Yan, he did not think that he would be able to snatch the Soul Gathering Fruit from the hands of those fellows. Since he wanted to obtain it, he must be one step faster than the others.
Suddenly, Xiao Yan, who was sitting cross-legged on the stone slab, opened his tightly shut eyes. A sharp light suddenly flashed across the depths of his eyes. An invisible aura caused the space in front of Xiao Yan to fluctuate slightly.
"Huff …"
After letting out a long breath of turbid air that had been suppressed in his chest, Xiao Yan's pale face gradually regained its rosy color. However, there was still some lingering dispiritedness between Xiao Yan's brows.
Knitting his brows, Xiao Yan helplessly shook his head and sighed. Soon after, he slowly stood up from the stone slab.
This time around, Xiao Yan had indeed exhausted too much of his strength. Within two days, Xiao Yan had only recovered less than fifty percent of his strength. If he wanted to completely recover, it was likely that he would not be able to do so without another four to five days.
However, time waited for no one. If Xiao Yan wanted to obtain the Soul Consolidating Fruit, he had to quickly pass through the large stone hall and reach the ancient forest. Only then would he have a chance to obtain the Soul Consolidating Fruit. However, if he continued to stay here like this, it was hard to say who would obtain the Soul Consolidating Fruit in the end.
"Mister Xiao Yan, what are you doing?"
Seeing Xiao Yan stand up, the two elders of the Yunyin Pavilion frowned slightly and also stood up from their cross-legged positions. Currently, Xiao Yan's position in their hearts was not inferior to their pavilion master. Facing Xiao Yan, they naturally did not dare to be careless.
"I think it's time for me to leave."
Hearing the doubtful voice of the golden-robed elder, Xiao Yan slowly turned around and faced the two elders. After pondering for a moment, he said.
The expressions of the two old men were immediately startled when Xiao Yan's words were uttered. They immediately faced each other before looking at Xiao Yan. Their faces involuntarily revealed a worried expression.
"Mister Xiao Yan, you can't be planning to go …"
"That's right, the Soul Consolidating Fruit is my biggest goal in entering the Desolate Ancient Ruins this time. No matter what, I must obtain it. No matter how dangerous it is, I must give it a try. Perhaps I will really obtain it."
Before the golden-robed elder could finish speaking, Xiao Yan interrupted him. At the end of his words, Xiao Yan pretended to be relaxed and ridiculed him.
Seeing this, the golden-robed elder duo could only silently nod their heads. They secretly prayed for Xiao Yan in their hearts. Since the former had already made his decision, they naturally could not change it. Therefore, they could only secretly hope that nothing would happen to Xiao Yan. Otherwise, even if they returned, it would be difficult to explain to their superiors.
"Mister Xiao Yan, I'm afraid that the two of us will not be able to accompany you in the future. Therefore, I hope that Mister Xiao Yan can take care of yourself. Everything must be done with your own life as the most important!"
The golden-robed elder's gaze was solemn as he stared at Xiao Yan. However, he could not help but feel ashamed in his heart.
Speaking of which, if it was not for Xiao Yan, it was likely that the two of them would have already died in the hands of the three brothers. Now that Xiao Yan was in trouble, the two of them did not dare to travel with him because they were afraid of those Magical Beasts within the ancient forest. This really caused one's heart to feel ashamed!
As if he could read the elder's thoughts, Xiao Yan smiled without a care. He gently waved his hand and said with a smile, "Elder, don't blame yourself.
This is my personal matter and I do not wish to implicate the two of you. Otherwise, I'm afraid that I will cause more trouble for you. "
Seeing this, the two elders could not help but look at each other. They smiled awkwardly but did not say anything else.
Soon after, Xiao Yan did not say anything else. He cupped his hands towards the two elders, turned around and walked out of the stone room.
Behind him, the two elders hesitated for a moment before slowly following behind.
The reason why they remained in this stone room was because Xiao Yan had not recovered. Since Xiao Yan had already decided to leave, there was naturally no need for them to continue staying.
"Mister Xiao Yan, if you really meet with any trouble that Mister Xiao Yan is unable to resolve, please return to this place. We may not be able to do anything to those fellows inside, but as long as the two of us are here, we will definitely not allow anyone to harm even a single hair on Mister Xiao Yan's head!"
When they reached the entrance of the stone room, the golden-robed elder once again cupped his hands towards Xiao Yan and said solemnly.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was first slightly startled. Soon after, he heavily nodded his head and thanked the two of them. Soon after, with a thought, a pitch-black robe immediately condensed on the surface of his body and covered his entire body. After which, he turned around and flew towards the end of the tunnel.
Behind him, the two elders once again looked at Xiao Yan, who had turned around and left. Soon after, they slowly turned around and flew towards the other direction.
The instant Xiao Yan turned around and left, a bright light flashed in the depths of the pair of pitch-black eyes under the black robe …
Moments later, within the seemingly endless tunnel, Xiao Yan's figure was like a gust of wind as he rapidly flew through the tunnel. Around him, the number of undamaged stone doors increased. From this, one could see that the formations on them were becoming increasingly powerful. In fact, it was so powerful that even a Nine-star Half Emperor would find it difficult to destroy them. Of course, he believed that the value of the items within was rather high.
However, at this moment, Xiao Yan did not have the time to care about these things. For the current Xiao Yan, no matter how good the treasures within these stone doors were, they could not compare to the Spirit Condensation Fruit that he needed. Furthermore, at this moment, there was a rat sneakily following behind him …
"As expected, it seems that the gaze I felt that day was you, Brother Bing …"
Xiao Yan softly muttered in his heart. Until a certain moment, Xiao Yan's rapidly flying figure suddenly came to a halt. His feet fiercely stomped on the air, and at the same time, his figure under the cover of the black robe suddenly twisted backwards. With a twist of his palm, a palm viciously blasted out behind him.
"Where did this rat come from? After following me for so long, it's time for you to reveal your true form!"
In the next instant, the formless void behind Xiao Yan suddenly shook violently. A white palm viciously shot out and instantly collided with Xiao Yan's palm strike.
"Boom!"
An earth-shaking explosion continuously reverberated within the wide tunnel. The echoes were like waves of bell ringing, shaking one's mind. At the same time, two figures, one black and one white, flew backwards in the middle of the tunnel.
