As points were added, the purple-gold mark on Qin Luo's arm became increasingly profound. When the last ray of blue light merged into it, the purple in the purple-gold slowly faded away, replaced by a pure and dazzling gold.
Meanwhile, Qin Luo's points were increasing at an astonishing rate, finally surpassing the 10,000 mark and reaching an astonishing 11,000 points!
"Sigh, it seems most of these people were brought here on purpose; there aren't many with over a thousand points..."
With a helpless sigh, the jade patterns on Qin Luo's body began to fade rapidly, and he also exited the Heart Sutra state, revealing an extreme state of exhaustion.
Clearly, forcibly using the Qiankun Wanxiang Transformation technique again had put an even greater strain on his already exhausted physical body.
But after that intimidation, no one dared to come up and steal anymore, leaving the mountaintop completely empty for a time.
Rumble
Meanwhile, in the center of the mountain, the battle between Xuan Yuanhao, who had transformed into the Hundred Spirit Whale, and Murong Liyue was reaching its climax.
The enormous body of the Hundred-Spirit Black Whale is like a moving mountain. With each swing, it brings up howling winds, and its deep blue scales shimmer with a mysterious light in the sunlight.
But at this moment, the Xuan Whale stared solemnly at the hundreds of identical figures in front of it. Then, the Xuan Whale's giant tail suddenly lashed out, and the powerful force stirred up a violent wave of spiritual energy, tearing a long crack in the air.
Under this terrifying wave, all the ethereal butterflies were annihilated, but they slowly reappeared the next moment.
This caused Xuanyuan Hao to let out a deep roar, the sound waves reverberating through the air and shaking down many rocks from the surrounding mountains. However, the figures remained unaffected, still silently hovering in the air.
As he watched Murong Liyue on the Spirit Illusionary Butterfly continuously merge into the magic seals in the void, a faint threat gradually became clearer around him.
This filled Xuan Yuanhao with intense unease. He could clearly sense the terrifying power contained within the forming spirit array. Even in his current beast-spirit form, that power filled him with deep dread.
He tried to find a flaw in the spirit array, but after countless attempts, Xuan Yuanhao realized with dismay that he probably couldn't break through the illusory power of the Spirit Illusionary Butterfly and the terrifying spirit array that was about to take shape in a short time.
Finally, faced with the increasingly obvious crisis and the constant warnings from the Xuan Whale, he made a decisive move. He gritted his teeth, let out a roar of unwillingness, and then broke through the air to leave.
The enormous body of the Hundred-Spirit Black Whale drew a magnificent arc in the air and disappeared into the horizon in an instant.
Watching the departing Xuan Whale, Murong Liyue did not attempt to intercept it. Instead, she looked worriedly towards the top of Lingxiao Peak.
She was already struggling to deal with Xuan Yuanhao all by herself, while Qin Luo was facing two people who were on par with him.
This filled Murong Liyue with worry, wondering what Qin Luo's current situation was.
Sensing her unease, the ethereal butterfly slowly flapped its wings, creating bursts of dazzling light, and its figure sped towards Qin Luo's direction like a streak of light.
The wind whistled past Murong Liyue's ears, her eyes filled with urgency, wishing she could fly to Qin Luo's side immediately.
Finally, after a short while, she saw Qin Luo on the mountain peak in the distance.
Relieved to see that he was alright, I slowed down and gently landed beside him.
But upon getting closer and sensing Qin Luo's weak aura and slightly tired face, her heart tightened.
Upon seeing her arrive, Qin Luo's pale face broke into a gentle smile. He slowly raised his hand and handed the half-zhang-sized Sun and Moon Purple Vine to Murong Liyue.
The Sun and Moon Purple Vine in Qin Luo's hand radiated a dazzling array of black and white colors, as if it were a dream.
The vines are slender and resilient, covered with delicate patterns, each pattern brimming with vitality.
"Liyue, you've arrived..."
Qin Luo's weak voice echoed through the mountains, but he stopped halfway through his sentence.
Murong Liyue approached him, her lotus-like steps light and graceful. Instead of taking the Sun and Moon Purple Vine, she gently stroked his pale face, asking with a mixture of heartache and reproach:
"Didn't you say you wouldn't get hurt? But the way you look, you don't look like you're unharmed at all."
Her fingers trembled slightly as she gently touched Qin Luo's bloodless cheek. Murong Liyue's eyes were filled with heartache, and her clear, autumn-like eyes welled up with tears.
Have you ever considered how I feel?
After speaking, Murong Liyue bit her lower lip and looked at him reproachfully. Looking at Qin Luo's weak appearance and the glaring dark red bloodstains, she was filled with self-blame, hating herself for not being by his side to face it with him.
Qin Luo was slightly taken aback. He was only a little weak, so why was this girl reacting so strongly? Then he looked down at his body and realized that when he forcibly used the Qiankun Wanxiang Transformation, his body couldn't handle it, and his skin had cracked slightly, causing some blood to flow out. However, those cracks were quickly healed by the purple spiritual energy, which was why some blood remained on his skin.
The bloodstains had dried, leaving dark red marks that stood out starkly against Qin Luo's otherwise pale skin.
"this......"
This made it difficult for Qin Luo to explain. Seeing Murong Liyue's distressed and self-reproachful expression, a warm feeling welled up inside him. He then gently took Murong Liyue's hand and comforted her:
"Liyue, this was just an accident. This little injury will heal quickly."
"Don't worry, I will be extra careful next time."
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Murong Liyue glared fiercely with her large eyes and immediately shouted:
"There will be a next time!?"
Qin Luo was speechless for a moment. Looking at Murong Liyue's puffed-up face, he actually found her somewhat adorable. He then pulled Murong Liyue into his arms. Feeling her body trembling slightly, he rested his chin on the top of her head.
"I'm sorry to have worried you, but it's all worth it so that you can get ahead of others in the Lingxiao Sect later."
Of course, Qin Luo also added to himself in his heart that he wanted to improve his strength quickly in the Lingxiao Sect.
Hearing his words of comfort, Murong Liyue was unmoved and shook her head frantically in his arms:
"No, I don't care about being one step ahead, I just want you to be safe and sound."
Qin Luo didn't say much, letting her resist, but his arms involuntarily tightened around her. He could feel the deep affection and concern in Murong Liyue's words. At this moment, he forgot his exhaustion and weakness, simply holding this woman who was always worried about him in his arms.
