Nuantang listened quietly to Qin Luo's words, and the expression on her face gradually changed from initial disappointment to anticipation.
Looking into Qin Luo's deep pupils, though they appeared calm and still, she could still sense that he was speaking these slightly harsh words out of concern for her.
She lowered her head, her hair falling down to obscure the expression on her face; only her slightly trembling shoulders betrayed her reluctance.
“Brother Qin, Nuantang knows that Nuantang never intended to be a burden to you.”
"I will work hard to cultivate, not only so that I can stay by your side legitimately, but also so that I can become someone who can share the burden with Brother Qin."
At this point, she took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down:
"Nuantang won't make things difficult for you, nor does she want to be a burden in your life. If that day comes and I can truly become good enough to make your heart flutter, that would be my honor."
Nuantang bit her lower lip, forcing back her tears. "If you can't, I won't blame you. Nuantang will live in the fox clan in Guai Guai. No matter when you come, I will be very happy."
After saying that, Nuantang ignored the pain in her body and took another deep breath from Qin Luo's embrace before leaving the embrace that she was so fond of.
He then immediately sat cross-legged and entered a meditative state.
At this moment, Nuantang's body began to surge with light purple spiritual energy. Although her movements were still a bit clumsy and her aura was not steady enough, she had already put her fighting spirit into action.
Qin Luo didn't say anything about it; all he could do was offer his silent support.
However, the Origin Qilin within the Qi Sea seemed somewhat aggrieved, letting out a low groan as if complaining about Qin Luo.
It already cherished the blood essence it had painstakingly refined, but now it was unwilling to separate out even more of it. However, under Qin Luo's coaxing, it could only obediently comply.
With Qin Luo's deliberate help, the refined blood energy surged towards Nuantang.
The moment the blood and qi merged into Nuantang's body, her aura also rose rapidly.
How much benefit you can gain here depends on you...
Qin Luo murmured softly, then with a thought, he gradually transferred his divine soul from his dantian into the torrent of chaotic energy surrounding the Chaotic Primordial Phoenix...
Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
During this month, Qin Luo's expression was sometimes ferocious and sometimes calm, which was a necessary experience for his soul to be baptized in the chaotic torrent.
Within the Qi Sea, the chaotic aura surrounding the Chaotic Primordial Phoenix has gradually formed a chaotic torrent three thousand feet in size.
The souls undergoing chaotic rebirth within were torn into countless fragments by these endless chaotic breaths. The excruciating pain that penetrated deep into the soul instantly filled Qin Luo's face with agony, his features contorted with pain.
However, just as their souls were about to dissipate, the Nirvana Flame within their bodies began to take effect.
Under the guidance of this spark, the shattered fragments of the divine soul began to slowly reassemble from the chaos.
Those tiny fragments of his soul drew closer to each other, fused together, and gradually reshaped Qin Luo's soul.
During this process, Qin Luo's expression gradually calmed down, his brows relaxed again, and his heart returned to peace.
But not long after, a new wave of chaotic torrents struck again, and the soul was once again mercilessly torn apart, and so it went on and on, in an endless cycle.
Within the chaotic torrent nearly three thousand feet deep, two divine souls, one green and one gold, sat cross-legged.
Qin Luo originally intended to baptize all five souls at once, but he underestimated his own capacity to withstand it, which caused him great suffering a month ago.
Only then did he obediently and gradually increase his divine soul to undergo chaotic rebirth.
Within this month, nourished by the rich ancient blood energy of this land, the growth of the Primordial Ancestral Dragon astonished Qin Luo.
Within its Qi Sea, its aura grew increasingly powerful, and the white mist that had enveloped the surroundings expanded to a size of nearly five thousand feet.
Even more astonishing is that the aura emanating from the Primordial Ancestral Dragon has reached the level of a fifth-grade saint!
Each breath it took was accompanied by a tremor in the space, and all the spiritual energy and stars within its Qi Sea bowed down in submission to its majesty.
It should be noted that a fifth-grade saint has already reached the point where the void cannot get close to him, but this ability to remain untouched by the void is not of much use to the Primordial Ancestral Dragon.
Not to be outdone, the Chaos Phoenix, nourished by the blood energy, no longer resembled a tender fledgling.
During this month, its feathers became even darker and more dazzling, each one shimmering with a chaotic luster.
Its strength was also rapidly increasing, reaching the level of a third-grade saint. Whenever it flapped its wings and took flight, it would bring up a storm of chaotic power, and the powerful wind pressure would cause the surrounding space and the chaotic torrent around it to ripple continuously.
The most pitiful one has to be the Origin Qilin, which is surrounded by countless colorful elemental light spots that are nearly a thousand feet in size, and these light spots keep jumping and flashing around it.
What's rather strange is that when water and fire, two elements that should be mutually restraining, meet, they don't clash violently, but instead blend together in a wonderful balance.
A water sphere, emitting wisps of heat, was formed, suspended in the air, with flames leaping at its center, the blue light and firelight reflecting each other.
Within the nearly thousand-foot-long elemental light curtain surrounding the Origin Qilin, such strange fusion phenomena were everywhere, creating a visual feast that defied common sense.
Its body was no longer that of a clumsy little beast, but had become more slender and agile. However, it was significantly inferior to the Primordial Ancestral Dragon and the Chaos Primordial Phoenix. Even its aura had only just reached the level of a first-grade saint, which made it somewhat disappointed, and a wronged look always appeared on its lips.
Boom!
A loud bang shattered the delicate balance between heaven and earth.
Nuantang's tribulation to become a saint descended suddenly at this peaceful moment.
During this month, in the intervals between the baptism of his soul in the chaotic torrent, whenever his soul was reorganized and his mind was at peace, Qin Luo would spare some of his attention to increase the supply of blood and energy to Nuantang.
The pure blood energy refined from the Origin Qilin surged towards Nuantang one after another.
At first, the flow of blood and qi was like a small stream, but with Qin Luo's intervention, it gradually converged into a mighty river, surging towards Nuantang wave after wave, each wave more powerful than the last, to aid her cultivation.
This is why the realm of the Origin Qilin was reduced to only reaching the level of a First-Rank Saint.
Although it felt wronged, it could only silently endure it, repeatedly eating the empty promises Qin Luo made to it, and then reluctantly handing over the blood energy it had painstakingly refined.
