After Lu Weng agreed, a drop of ten thousand year tree sap floated in front of Ling Xiao.
"I don't know how many years I've existed for, but it can't be less than fifteen thousand years. I've only managed to condense a hundred drops of ten thousand year tree sap, and each drop contains my essence energy. I'll give you one drop in hopes that you'll keep your promise." Lu Weng painfully looked at that drop of ten thousand year tree sap.
These were more than a hundred drops of Ten Thousand Year Tree Sap that it had accumulated for more than ten thousand years. Each drop was where its Profound Qi resided. If one drop was lost, it would need at least a thousand years to condense again. How could it not feel the pain?
Seeing Lu Weng's pained expression, Ling Xiao impatiently opened his mouth and sucked in that drop of ten thousand year tree sap.
Immediately, a cool and refreshing feeling spread throughout his body.
"Awesome!" Ling Xiao couldn't help praising.
Then something miraculous happened. A vast and pure energy spread throughout Ling Xiao's body. The Three Part Origin Energy and the Vajra Five Transformation Art both began to circulate, crazily devouring that pure energy.
The pure energy was instantly divided into two. Half of it was absorbed into the dantian, which was filled and warm. The other part of the energy was divided into the meridians. Several small meridians were instantly broken open. The other half was absorbed into every part of the body, which stimulated the activity of all the cells in the body. His limbs and internal organs were all nourished. Especially the tendons and meridians. After absorbing the energy, they became more than twice as tough as before. They faintly glowed with a golden light. This was the sign of success in the second transformation of the Vajra Five Transformations Formula, 'Tendon Refining'.
In the past, when cultivating the second transformation, "Refining Tendons", he would need to absorb medicinal energy to strengthen his tendons. Now this drop of ten thousand year tree sap was the best tonic, allowing him to instantly make progress in the second transformation.
Ling Xiao's mind shook, and he didn't dare dally. He immediately sat down cross-legged and focused on absorbing this pure energy.
After a while, Ling Xiao's entire body was covered with a green light, like that of a dragon. It was so vivid and lifelike that it was breathtaking. His skin was covered with a layer of pale golden light. The two colors intertwined, making him look very strange and holy!
Ling Xiao's aura soared all the way, from the initial stage of a high-level profound practitioner, all the way to the intermediate stage of a high-level profound practitioner. His aura didn't stop there, directly rushing all the way to the peak of the profound practitioner level, faintly showing signs of breaking through to the profound practitioner level.
At this time, Ling Xiao's aura directly stopped.
When Lu Weng saw this, he stroked his green beard and thought to himself, 'This kid has a resolute temperament, and he's actually able to resist the temptation of breaking through. His future prospects are limitless, and it looks like choosing him isn't a bad choice.'
After a long while, Ling Xiao abruptly stood up. His aura was clearly more than twice as strong as before, and his entire body was circulating with a dense life essence. A faint fragrance that was faintly discernible made one feel refreshed. He could clearly feel that his body was brimming with vitality, as if his entire body was filled with inexhaustible energy and energy.
"Just like this, I've gained a hundred years of lifespan?"
Ling Xiao spread out his hands and looked at himself in disbelief. He felt that his body had truly undergone a great change, but he still had to seek confirmation from Lu Weng.
"Of course. Aside from the increase in lifespan, there are also great benefits. You'll understand them in the future," Lu Weng said proudly.
This time, Ling Xiao no longer doubted Lu Weng's words.
"Alright, I agree to your conditions. I'll let you enter my spiritual sea to recover." Ling Xiao immediately and straightforwardly agreed.
He was incomparably happy inside. He had gained a hundred years of lifespan for no reason at all. This was something that anyone could only dream of.
After verifying it, he felt that Lu Weng's words were truly trustworthy. Perhaps letting him enter his spiritual sea really was a win-win situation.
"Young friend, you'll rejoice in this decision in the future," Lu Weng said with satisfaction.
"Let's talk about this later. Elder Lu, when are you going to disperse this fog?" Ling Xiao had even changed the way he addressed Lu Weng. He naturally had to show some respect after obtaining such benefits!
"In one or two days. Once I retract my Tree Spirit Qi, the fog will dissipate," Lu Weng said indifferently.
"Alright, then let me leave for now. If my friends don't see me, they'll probably be worried," Ling Xiao replied. Then he thought of Leng She and Wei Daier outside. If they saw that he had disappeared, they would probably be worried.
"Alright, stay near me for the next two days. Don't run around. Once I've exhausted my energy, I'll naturally enter your spiritual sea. As long as you let nature take its course and don't resist, there won't be any danger. If you resist, then you'll have to bear the consequences," Lu Weng said.
Following that, Ling Xiao's vision darkened and he once again appeared in front of the giant tree.
"Damn, this is too miraculous." Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, Leng She and his sister, who had been looking for Ling Xiao, also discovered Ling Xiao.
Wei Daier ran a few steps and put her hands on her hips. She looked at Ling Xiao and said angrily, "Where did you run off to just now?
Why didn't you respond? I thought you were eaten by a spirit beast. "
Ling Xiao scratched the back of his head and said, "Uh … people have three urgent needs, haha."
"Your three urgent needs took too long. You actually spent more than two hours." Wei Daier didn't believe Ling Xiao's words.
"This … I've been holding it in for a few days. Oh right, are you worried about me?"
Ling Xiao laughed shamelessly and changed the topic. He didn't want to tell anyone about what happened just now because it was too unbelievable. No one would believe him even if he said it.
Wei Daier blushed slightly and spat, "Who's worried about you!"
At this time, Leng She looked at Ling Xiao in surprise and said, "Brother Xiao, you've actually reached the peak of the Profound Realm?"
He remembered that Ling Xiao was just a high level Profound Realm cultivator who had just entered the Profound Realm. Now, after just a little more than two hours, he had actually reached the peak of the Profound Realm. He could suddenly reach the Profound Realm at any time. This … this really made him speechless.
Wei Dai 'er looked at Ling Xiao once more, and her expression changed. Then she said in agreement, "You really are at the peak of the Profound Realm. Eh, there seems to be a smell. It's very fresh. Could it be that you've consumed some kind of spiritual herb?"
"What Spirit Grass? I, your little brother, am extraordinarily talented. Increasing my strength is a very common thing. Could it be that you guys didn't hear that I already broke through to the Mystic Knight rank two and a half years ago? Now I'm just slowly recovering my strength, that's all!"
However, Leng She and Wei Daier felt that Ling Xiao's words made sense. After all, they had heard of Ling Xiao's genius name. Maybe it was just as Ling Xiao said, he was only recovering his strength now.
"Alright, since you're fine, let's go and eat something." Leng She didn't think too much and immediately changed the topic.
The Golden Wolf King and the Cyan Fire Wolf caught a Middle Stage Second Level Phantom Leopard. It was enough to solve the problem of eating for the three of them.
After eating the leopard meat, Ling Xiao said to Leng She and Wei Daier, "Brother Leng, sister, are you really going to give up on the Secret Territory?"
The two of them looked at Ling Xiao in confusion. They had already made it clear that they didn't want to look for the Secret Territory anymore. They just wanted to leave the Illusion Valley. They didn't know why Ling Xiao brought it up again.
"Brother Xiao, are you planning to …" Leng She guessed.
Ling Xiao nodded without denying it, "That's right. I'm a very curious person. Since I'm already here, I want to find out what's going on. Moreover, the fog in the Illusion Valley will probably dissipate in two days."
After one or two days, the fog in the Illusion Valley would dissipate. At that time, they would be able to recognize the path to the Secret Territory. Of course, Ling Xiao didn't want to miss out on the opportunity to see the Secret Territory. Thus, he asked Leng She and Wei Daier again. If they insisted on going out, he would send them out first. It would be more convenient for him to go alone. If they were still interested in exploring the Secret Territory, there was no harm in bringing them along. After all, Leng She and Wei Daier weren't weak.
"The fog in the Illusion Valley will dissipate?
That's impossible. The Illusion Valley has been around for hundreds of years. I've never heard of the fog dispersing. Brother Xiao, I think you should give up on the Secret Territory. I've heard that the Secret Territory is guarded by a Rank Three Spirit Beast. I'm afraid that even a Spirit Master would have a hard time dealing with it. "Leng She smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Wei Daier, who was beside him, also nodded. She thought that Ling Xiao's words couldn't be trusted.
The Illusion Valley had been around for hundreds of years, maybe even thousands of years. How could it be dispersed just because Ling Xiao said so? This was simply too ridiculous.
Ling Xiao smiled and didn't say anything else. Anyway, no matter how much he explained, they wouldn't listen to him. He would just let them wait and see.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.
Leng She and Wei Daier sat on the Golden Wolf King and the Cyanfire Wolf respectively and left the Illusion Valley.
"That's great! We've finally left this damned place!" Wei Daier couldn't help but exclaim as soon as they left the Illusion Valley.
"Yes, it was really dangerous this time. If Brother Xiao hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid that we would have died in the valley," Leng She said emotionally.
After Wei Daier came down from the Golden Wolf King, she turned around and looked at the misty valley in front of her. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tenderness as she said, "Yes, although that guy is a bit of a rascal, his abilities aren't weak. He was even able to subdue the Golden Wolf King. I hope that he can successfully find the Secret Territory."
"Oh, I hope that everything goes well for him. Come, let's go out." Leng She also looked at the Illusion Valley and patted Wei Daier's shoulder.
At this time, the Golden Wolf King and the Cyanfire Wolf once again entered the mist. They wanted to return to Ling Xiao's side.
Just as Leng She and Wei Daier were about to leave, the Illusion Valley finally started to change.
Leng She and Wei Daier looked at everything in front of them in disbelief. Their mouths were wide open, as if they couldn't believe that this was a reality.
The mist above the Illusory Valley suddenly surged. Layers of mist rapidly surged towards the depths of the Illusory Valley. It was as if there was a huge whirlpool in the depths of the Illusory Valley that was devouring the mist.
For a time, the birds and beasts in the Psychedelic Valley panicked and fled for their lives.
The mercenaries and adventurers in the vicinity of the Illusion Valley all saw this shocking phenomenon.
"Look, the mist in the Illusion Valley is actually gradually disappearing!"
"What's going on?
Could it be that some kind of spiritual creature has just been born in the Illusion Valley? "
"It's possible that the heaven and earth are changing!
It's a pity that it's close to the depths of the mountain range, and there are many spiritual beasts that are rank 2 and above. If we go there, we will definitely die. "
"I heard that the Green Wolf Regiment seems to be heading in the direction of the Illusion Valley. Could it be that they're the cause of this commotion?"
"If that's the case, could it be that the Green Wolf Regiment has obtained some kind of spiritual creature?"
…
"It's … it's really disappearing!" Wei Daier said in surprise as she looked at the gradually thinning mist.
"Yes, I really don't know how this kid did it!" Leng She said with infinite emotion.
"Big Brother, you can't be thinking that this is his doing, right?" Wei Daier asked in shock.
"If it's not him, who else do you think it is?
Since he has already determined that the mist will disperse in two days, then he must know something. He just didn't tell us, "Leng She said calmly.
After hearing Leng She's words, Wei Daier's body shook, and her beautiful eyes looked into the depths of the valley with indescribable feelings.
"If you have feelings for him, then cherish it. He might be a good choice," Leng She said as he looked at the absent-minded Wei Daier.
"He's just a kid, I don't like him," Wei Daier said with a blush on her face. She then turned around and ran away.
