Chapter 318 Seeking Good Fortune, Nascent Soul Perfection
A few days later.
In a mountain forest somewhere.
Huang Laomo's nascent soul sat within a hidden small formation.
Several shimmering spirit stones were scattered around him, continuously providing him with pure spiritual energy to help him recover the vitality lost in battle.
At this moment, he gently toyed with the mysterious white crystals in his hands, his brows furrowed, his eyes filled with doubt and contemplation.
The origin of these crystals is like an unsolvable mystery, leaving Old Demon Huang puzzled, yet he dared not return to the cave to investigate.
His gaze inadvertently swept to the side, where the communication talisman was still flashing rapidly. A thought struck him, and he finally chose to answer the call.
"Old Demon Huang, I'm being chased and in dire straits! Come and help me immediately!" Ji Ying's voice came instantly from the talisman, filled with urgency.
However, upon hearing this, Old Demon Huang sneered inwardly with disdain.
In his view, Ji Ying was a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, how could he be chased and killed so badly by a Nascent Soul cultivator?
This was clearly Ji Ying's scheme to lure him out and then seize the opportunity to steal the Star Shuttle from his hands.
Old Demon Huang sneered inwardly, but his face remained expressionless. He sat calmly in place, without even changing his posture.
He secretly plotted in his heart, determined not to fall for Ji Ying's trap.
"Brother Ji, I have also suffered a severe injury and am currently in seclusion to recuperate. It is truly difficult for me to help you." Old Demon Huang's voice came through the talisman, carrying a hint of weakness and helplessness, as if he were indeed seriously injured and unable to move.
Upon hearing this reply, Ji Ying's anger was instantly ignited.
How could he not know that Old Demon Huang was deliberately delaying, wanting to watch him and Chu Lengyu fight to the death, and then profit from it?
His face turned ashen, and his eyes seemed to burn with fire.
He gripped the communication talisman tightly, his angry voice echoing through the talisman: "Old Demon Huang, you just want to stand by and watch. If something happens to me, do you think she'll let you off? The Star Shuttle is mine; don't even think about refining it and escaping so easily!"
However, Old Demon Huang remained calm and composed.
He believed that by holding the Star Shuttle as his trump card, he had a way out.
"We're both sensible people, why waste time on these useless words? If you really meet with misfortune, the Star Shuttle will naturally be mine. Brother Ji, you'd better pray for your own good fortune." Old Demon Huang's voice carried a hint of mockery, clearly indicating that he really had no intention of helping.
Upon hearing this, Ji Ying trembled with anger and nearly tore the communication talisman in her hand to shreds.
But reason told him that ordinary communication talismans couldn't fly out of the gale layer. This talisman was his only link with Huang Laomo. Once it was torn up, he would be completely isolated and helpless.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, his voice tinged with coldness: "Old Demon Huang, you'd better watch yourself. Once I'm free, I'll settle this score with you!"
Huang Laomo was unfazed by the threat and replied calmly, "Brother Ji, you should take care of yourself first. Alright, I need to continue healing. We can talk again after I've recovered."
After saying that, Old Demon Huang cut off the communication and ignored Ji Ying's roar and threats.
As Ji Ying stood amidst the fierce winds, her anxiety and anger reached their peak.
He knew he had to find a way to escape as soon as possible, or he might really lose his life.
He quickly considered his other trump cards.
……
Over time.
The chase between Chu Lengyu and Ji Ying has lasted for nearly a month.
They clashed countless times, each battle serving as a whetstone, sharpening her skills and making her combat techniques increasingly refined.
Before she knew it, Ji Ying had gradually gotten used to this situation.
Chu Lengyu merely pursued him, intending to deplete his spiritual energy, without truly aiming to kill him. Each time she retreated into the gale-force winds, he had a brief respite to catch his breath and recuperate.
However, the force of this gale was so fierce that it blew against him for a whole month. Even Ji Ying felt his face become numb from the wind.
He flew through the heavens for a long time, but still could not find a place to shelter from the wind, and a sense of despair arose in his heart.
On this day, Ji Ying was still being relentlessly pursued by Chu Lengyu.
He sped ahead expressionlessly, his heart already calm and undisturbed.
However, at that moment, he suddenly noticed that Chu Lengyu behind him had stopped.
Ji Ying's heart stirred slightly, thinking that she was going to rest in the lower part of the Gangfeng layer again.
However, to his surprise, Chu Lengyu's aura began to fluctuate violently.
Her spiritual power seemed to be ignited, boiling and reaching an unprecedented critical point.
Upon seeing this, Ji Ying couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.
He subconsciously stopped his escape and stood still.
At this moment, Chu Lengyu's spiritual power finally stabilized, and her cultivation level successfully advanced to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage.
Ji Ying sensed the other party's presence and immediately widened her eyes, staring at Chu Lengyu in disbelief.
She actually broke through during the battle!
"This...how is this possible?!" Ji Ying exclaimed inwardly, her face filled with shock.
Breaking through in battle is incredibly difficult, usually requiring cultivators to possess extraordinary talent and perseverance in order to comprehend a new realm on the brink of life and death.
However, Chu Lengyu in front of him had done just that.
At this moment, Ji Ying felt unprecedented pressure and crisis.
A legendary name involuntarily surfaced in his mind—Tang Qingying.
That female cultivator who left a splendid name in the myriad worlds of the starry sea, who killed a Nascent Soul cultivator while in the Divine Transformation stage, a Divine Transformation cultivator while in the Integration stage, and a Integration stage cultivator while in the Mahayana stage, is an unsolvable mystery.
She single-handedly changed the perception of the lower realms in both the immortal and demonic realms, making those powerful beings in high positions no longer dare to easily destroy the entire lower realm.
A sense of unease welled up in Ji Ying's heart.
He quickly shook his head, trying to banish the thought.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" He kept telling himself that even if this female cultivator from the lower realm had some talent, she could never be the second Tang Qingying!
However, her breakthrough in realm and increase in strength are undeniable facts.
Chu Lengyu took one last look at Ji Ying, then turned and flew downwards.
His eyes were red, as if he had been provoked. She decided to return to the Immortal Capital Cave to stabilize her cultivation before facing him again.
Seeing this, Ji Ying was unwilling to give up. He tried his best to chase after her for a while, but could only watch her leave helplessly.
A fierce wind howled, and he stood still, staring at the direction she had disappeared, his gaze flickering uncertainly.
