Shang Liang, the master of the Yuntai Sect, failed his ascension after using the remains of an ancient divine dragon to refine a magical artifact, the Dragon Soul Tower, causing his soul to transmi...
Although Red Scorpion had some doubts about Shang Lin's words, seeing his confident and convincing demeanor, he didn't ask any questions and directly slammed his scorpion tail at him.
With a loud "boom," the magic array emitted a burst of light, then began to tremble violently. Before long, the light shattered like broken glass and gradually dissipated.
The surroundings were plunged into darkness in an instant, a darkness so dark that even the eyes of an alien could not see anything. The next second, it was as if someone who had fallen into a coma had suddenly woken up, and the world became bright again.
When Chi Xie opened his eyes, he saw Shang Lin standing beside him, his face somewhat pale, and Shang Lin's fingers were leaving his brow.
Red Scorpion immediately sat up, asking in bewilderment, "What happened?"
Shang Lin smiled gently, "What? You don't remember anything?"
Red Scorpion subconsciously rubbed his forehead. "It seems like a blurry image, or maybe there's nothing there at all. I can't tell what's real and what's fake."
"It's okay, don't think about it if you can't remember. It's not important anyway." Shang Lin checked the time. "Alright, I have to go to class. You can rest in the tower for a couple more days."
Red Scorpion looked at Shang Lin, bewildered. "I'm perfectly fine, why should I rest? And for two days?!" Who does he think he is? He's a powerful demon, not an ordinary human. Besides, he's not injured or sick, why should he rest?
However, Shang Lin was in a hurry and did not respond to Chi Xie's words; in fact, he had already left.
When She Jinxing, who was waiting outside, saw Shang Lin come out, he hurriedly asked, "Sect Master doesn't look well. Are you still going to class? You should rest. You've already asked for leave anyway."
"It's nothing," Shang Lin explained. "I'm not injured, it's just from overworking my brain. Going to class now is actually a rest."
She Jinxing wanted to say, "Don't we use our brains in class?!"
As it turned out, Shang Lin had already left the tower. She Jinxing had no choice but to follow him out and personally escort him to the school, fearing that something else might happen.
Shang Lin couldn't bring herself to refuse She Jinxing's thoughtfulness and patience, so she let him be and even explained, "It really didn't take much effort. It was just that when breaking the formation, I was writing, drawing, and calculating, which took up some time, so you really don't need to worry."
"Yes, I know that the sect leader is always very measured in his actions, but I'm still worried."
Faced with She Jinxing's candor, Shang Lin could only say, "I understand. I'll try not to do anything that would cause worry next time." Besides, breaking the formation was something that only he could do!
She Jinxing, “…”
Sect Master, you want a next time?!
Why can you always talk about dangerous things in such a light and casual tone?
Shang Lin could roughly guess how much She Jinxing was thinking to himself while he remained silent.
He immediately laughed and said, "Alright, alright, as the sect leader, I naturally know what's important and what's urgent. Besides, I've already died once, and I cherish my life more than anyone else."
She Jinxing looked at Shang Lin helplessly, and really wanted to say, "It's good that the sect leader knows."
But in the end, he left without saying anything.
As soon as She Jinxing returned to the Dragon Spirit Tower, he was caught red-handed by the Crimson Scorpion. "I remember now, the reason I became like this is because I was affected by the Blood Moon."
In fact, She Jinxing, who had been guarding outside to protect Shang Lin, had heard everything when Shang Lin and Chi Xie were talking, but he just didn't go up to disturb them.
So when she heard Red Scorpion's words, she didn't feel there was anything wrong with the connection. She just said in a calm tone, "Since you've remembered everything, then do as the sect leader says."
Red Scorpion didn't understand what the sect leader meant at first, because he was circulating his spiritual energy to check if he felt any discomfort. It wasn't until after circulating his spiritual energy for a week that he realized Shang Lin had told him to rest for two days.
When I first heard the sect leader say that, I thought he was looking down on me. But now it seems that it's really necessary to take a rest, so that if something else happens when I go out, it will be even more embarrassing!
A powerful demon was actually lured into having a demonic possession by the Blood Moon, and the sect leader had to personally save him. If word got out...
Haha, I'm really shameless.
So Red Scorpion nodded very cooperatively, "Okay."
She Jinxing was about to go to the third floor of the Dragon Spirit Tower to see Ah Chou when Ah Chou flew out from the third floor. It wasn't a pen, but a human form, and a larger one at that.
She Jinxing was immediately stunned. What... what's going on with Ah Chou this time?
However, Ah Chou flew excitedly to She Jinxing's side. When he landed, he was already a meter tall. Before, he was only a foot tall, but with such a height difference, he still had to look up at the other person.
So Ah Chou immediately floated up again, facing She Jinxing, and said excitedly, "Senior brother, senior brother, I can actually enter the Dao through writing! Look, these are all kinds of writings I have. I have found that as long as I write, my cultivation level will increase."
She Jinxing and Chi Xie were both taken aback, then looked at each other in astonishment. There was such a cultivation method? It was truly something they had never seen or heard of before!
Overwhelmed with astonishment, She Jinxing didn't utter a single word. He simply took the phone Ah Chou handed him, which read—Chapter One: A Fleeting Glimpse Under the Fireworks.
In the bustling capital, festivals are always lively and festive. This year's Lantern Festival was especially joyous. The streets and alleys were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and people were immersed in a joyful atmosphere.
Lin Yu is the young master of the Lin family, the Minister of the Capital. He is handsome and talented, but he secretly slips out of the mansion with a half-mask, wanting to experience the hustle and bustle of the common people.
As he stood in front of a lantern stall, selecting an exquisite lantern, he inadvertently looked up and, through the crowd, saw a strikingly beautiful figure.
Whose daughter is this? She is beautiful as a flower and has a charming smile. It was just a fleeting glance, but for a moment, it seemed as if time stood still. The surrounding noise gradually faded away, leaving only their eyes meeting.
Seeing that She Jinxing was looking at it so intently, Chi Xie moved closer and watched for a while before saying, "Isn't this just an ordinary novel? How did it help you improve your cultivation?"
Ah Chou said very honestly, "I don't know either, but look at me now, I've grown so much bigger than before! And the more I write, the more my thoughts flow like a spring, and I feel a sense of complete understanding, just like the feeling I have when I'm practicing cultivation."
She Jinxing handed the phone back to A Chou, "Didn't you revert to your original form when the blood moon came? When did you start writing the book?"
