Successfully Harvested
Time flew by quickly, and seven days had passed unknowingly.
In the main hall, Chu Xingyun was still sitting cross-legged, motionless, like an ascetic monk.
However, the Ten Thousand Beast Fire in front of him had changed. Within the purplish-red core of the fire, there was a trace of pure Spiritual Energy. The Spiritual Energy swayed with the fire as if it had become one.
"Fuse!" Chu Xingyun suddenly opened his eyes and shouted. The Spiritual Energy in his body gushed out without reservation and enveloped the Ten Thousand Beast Fire.
However, unlike before, the Ten Thousand Beast Fire did not resist this time. Instead, it was much more docile and quietly floated in the air. The demonic flame also did not continue to jump.
Chu Xingyun was ecstatic. He stretched out his hands and directly absorbed the Ten Thousand Beast Fire into his Spirit Sea.
"It's done!" Chu Xingyun examined his Spirit Sea. In the center, the Ten Thousand Beast Fire floated there motionlessly. The pure Spiritual Energy moved back and forth in the core of the fire. It was not rejected at all and was extremely harmonious.
After the Ten Thousand Beast Fire disappeared, the scorching aura that filled the entire main hall also gradually dissipated.
Xue Qingwu rushed in from outside the main hall. When she saw that Chu Xingyun was safe and sound, the worry on her face disappeared and was replaced by a trace of surprise. She asked, "You succeeded?"
Chu Xingyun was in a good mood and replied with a smile, "You can say so."
"The Ten Thousand Beast Fire has disappeared, but you are still alive and kicking here. This means that you have successfully subdued the Ten Thousand Beast Fire. I didn't expect you to be so humble." It was rare for Xue Qingwu to tease. However, the gaze she looked at Chu Xing Yun with was filled with admiration.
Although she did not understand the Ten Thousand Beast Fire, she could clearly feel how powerful and violent the Ten Thousand Beast Fire was. Even she, who had Hanxue Wu Ling, did not dare to get too close to it.
Chu Xingyun only used seven days to subdue the Ten Thousand Beast Fire. Furthermore, he did not suffer any injuries. She asked herself if she could achieve such a result.
"Chu Xingyun, you broke through?" At this time, Xue Qingwu's eyes widened as if she had seen something inconceivable.
Chu Xingyun had already expected this situation, so he didn't show too much surprise and remained calm. "When I merged my spiritual power with the Ten Thousand Beast Fire, the Ten Thousand Beast Fire also tempered my meridians. The two complemented each other, so it's normal for me to break through to the next realm."
But when Xue Qingwu heard this, her beautiful face twitched.
She remembered clearly that when Chu Xingyun first entered the Misty Forest, he was only at the first sky of spirit gathering. In just five days, he had a breakthrough and entered the second sky of spirit gathering.
Xue Qingwu wasn't surprised by such a breakthrough. She felt that Chu Xingyun had accumulated a lot of experience and had taken this crucial step through hunting and hunting.
But at this moment, how long had it been since Chu Xingyun broke through to the second layer of Spirit Gathering? Seven days. In just seven days, he once again broke through and stepped into the third layer of Spirit Gathering.
Even the experienced and knowledgeable Xue Qingwu couldn't accept such a terrifying speed, and the hairs on her body stood on end.
"Isn't it just breaking through to the next realm? Is there a need to make such a fuss? " Chu Xingyun rolled his eyes helplessly. With a flick of his hand, he passed the Imperial Yin Stone to Xue Qingwu.
"This is for me?" Xue Qingwu blinked and asked doubtfully.
"I, Chu Xingyun, don't like to owe people favors. Since you gave the Ten Thousand Beast Fire to me, then this Imperial Yin Stone is yours." Seeing that Xue Qingwu didn't take it, Chu Xingyun frowned and pushed the Imperial Yin Stone into Xue Qingwu's hands somewhat domineeringly.
"The Imperial Yin Stone can release a weak amount of evil yin power. Apart from being used to lure spirit beasts, it can also make it easier for practitioners to sense evil yin power. It's most suitable for someone of the ninth layer of Spirit Gathering like you. As long as you keep it by your side day and night, it can increase your chances of breaking through to the earth spirit realm by at least fifty percent."
When Xue Qingwu heard Chu Xingyun's words, her entire face was filled with shock, and she couldn't be any more shocked.
Her voice trembled as she said, "I've obviously concealed my level of training, how did you see through it? Also, is what you said just now true? This Imperial Yin Stone can increase my chances of success by fifty percent? "
"What do I gain by lying to you?" Chu Xingyun looked at the astonished Xue Qingwu and said weakly, "Besides, it'd be strange if I couldn't see through your third-rate concealment methods."
Xue Qingwu smiled wryly when she heard this.
The concealment method she'd practiced had been passed down to her by her grandfather. When he'd passed it on, her grandfather had even patted his chest and guaranteed that even a practitioner of the sky spirit realm would find it difficult to see through it.
"If grandfather heard Chu Xingyun's words, he'd definitely fly into a rage." Xue Qingwu couldn't help but want to laugh when she thought of this scene. At the same time, she put the Imperial Yin Stone into her storage ring.
She really did need this item now.
"The Ten Thousand Beast Fire and the Imperial Yin Stone are the source of the spirit beast riot. After you and I have respectively taken them, the spirit beast riot will no longer exist. We should also leave this place."
Chu Xingyun's gaze looked ahead. Judging from the time, the exam should've ended long ago. Luo Lan saw that he hadn't come out after so long and wondered if she was worried.
Also, despicable people like Li Yi and Li Chen would most likely think that he'd died tragically under the claws of a spirit beast.
Xue Qingwu seemed to have sensed something from Chu Xingyun's gaze. She nodded and said, "Since the spirit beast riot isn't happening anymore, there's no need for us to continue staying here. Let's go now."
After speaking, the two of them immediately went back the way they came and quickly walked out of the Lei family mansion. Once again, they entered the Sky Locking Mist Formation to find a way out.
However, not long after they entered the Heaven Locking Bewildering Fog Formation, a skinny old man wearing a black robe suddenly appeared in the rolling fog.
This old man's speed was extremely fast as he hurried through the air. He seemed to be very familiar with the Sky Locking Mist Formation. Very quickly, he found the Lei family mansion and came to the main hall in the deepest part of the mansion.
He pushed open the door of the main hall and when he realized that the Ten Thousand Beast Fire was nowhere to be seen, his entire face fell into a daze. Especially his turbid eyes, they were empty and lifeless, as if he'd suffered a heavy blow.
"The Imperial Yin Stone!" The old man suddenly thought of something and immediately recovered from his daze. He swept out his palm and lifted the crimson cauldron, which weighed a thousand pounds, into the air.
Unfortunately, he didn't see what he was looking for.
The entire cauldron was empty. There was nothing left inside.
