Cultivators refine their qi and body; as long as they put their heart into it, few are ugly. The novels really weren't lying. Lin Qianqian had been a fan of celebrities before and had seen quite a few handsome men.
But the person before him had long, silvery-white hair tied up high with a jade crown, and a face with sharp, defined features that was unparalleled in the world. A pair of blue eyes were set in his exquisitely beautiful, snow-white face.
She wore a white, gilded robe, cinched at the waist with a grayish-purple sash, and an outer belt inlaid with jewels. Over this, she wore a light gray, wide-sleeved gauze dress.
Even though she has grown taller now, she is still a head shorter than him.
This visual overload almost made Lin Qianqian faint. It took her a while to regain her composure and call out, "Yunze?"
"It's me." This gentle, low reply touched her heart.
Seeing that Lin Qianqian's hair was disheveled, he went around behind her, took out a jade comb from his sleeve, and started combing Lin Qianqian's hair.
He was very skillful; he turned the upper part of his hair into several small braids, then twisted and coiled them to the left and right, and a beautiful bun was formed.
He didn't touch the lower half, but simply combed it and let it drape over Lin Qianqian's back.
If you ask him why he wears a woman's hairstyle, it's because he often watched his mother do her hair when he was a child.
After combing his hair, he took out a crescent-shaped hairpin with a pearl pendant and gently inserted it.
Lin Qianqian let him play with her hair, feeling extremely embarrassed and not daring to move.
I could only make small talk: "Your injury is all healed? Why has your hair turned white? Oh, it's silvery-white?"
"Yes, the injuries have all healed. The hair color has returned to the same as the ancestor's because it absorbed the essence and inner core of Bai Ze God Venerable."
"If you've reverted to your ancestral form, then you're no longer human? Have you become the divine beast Bai Ze?" she asked curiously.
"It's just that you've reverted to your ancestral form and are closer to the Bai Ze form. To become a true divine beast, the Bai Ze, you still need a long period of cultivation and to undergo tribulations. Your Jumang inheritance should also contain this common knowledge. Just think about it carefully and you'll understand. Don't even mention me; you've also changed quite a bit after receiving the Jumang inheritance." Yunze patiently explained to Lin Qianqian.
“Oh right, I haven’t adjusted to my new identity yet, and I’ve forgotten that I also have a legacy. Your changes are quite significant; I didn’t realize it at first.”
"Big change? Do you look better?" Yunze raised an eyebrow slightly, smiling as he looked at her.
"So beautiful, so beautiful, you've become even more beautiful!" Lin Qianqian felt like a lovesick fool, her heart beating faster and faster.
The jokes circulating online are true; so-called love at first sight is just lust at first sight.
Even when Yunze's face was injured and his features were obscured, she didn't have any special feelings for him; it was purely a camaraderie forged in the battle of survival.
But now, looking at this handsome face, ah... her thoughts are no longer pure.
She liked his face, she was attracted to his body, and she felt that she had fallen in love at first sight.
Just as she was about to say something, Lu Wu, who had been missing for several days, appeared before the altar, holding a crystal ball. He placed it next to the water mirror.
Then he made a hand gesture towards the water mirror, and images flashed across the water mirror.
The footage shows that black mist is permeating many places where there are the corpses of spirit beasts or cultivators, which looks very ominous.
Lu Wu continued to cast a series of hand seals towards the water mirror. Above the corpses, magic arrays appeared out of thin air. As the magic arrays fell, the corpses turned into black smoke, passed through the water mirror, and were sucked into the crystal ball next to it. The originally transparent crystal ball gradually turned pitch black.
Gradually, Lu Wu's figure became more and more transparent with his movements, as if a gust of wind could blow it away.
If they went outside now, they would find that the entire Cloud Void Realm was incredibly oppressive and gloomy, and the spiritual creatures in various places were restless and anxious.
Finally, no more black smoke entered the crystal ball, and Lu Wu didn't say a word. He simply gestured for Yunze to take the crystal ball and led them back to the rear hall, this time going directly to the third floor.
There are only a dozen or so rooms on the third floor, and the door to one of the rooms was not closed.
Lin Qianqian saw rows of shelves inside, with boxes of different sizes on them, each box engraved with runes.
As Lu Wu walked ahead, he explained, "The boxes in those rooms contain various weapons and magical treasures that my lord collected from the Endless Abyss battlefield. There are also some left behind by cultivators who entered the secret realm, all of which I have collected."
They were heading to the innermost hall, where there was a small altar in the middle, but without a water mirror. The walls, ceiling, and floor were covered with densely packed runes.
Lu Wu gestured for Yun Ze to place the crystal ball on the altar, then said, "Yun Ze, you also come from a sect of immortals, so you should know purification spells and exorcism spells, right?"
"Yes, although I'm not an expert, I've been learning. As disciples of the immortal sect, it is our duty to promote good and eliminate evil." Yunze's answer was firm and powerful.
"Then you will be in charge of purifying these resentful and filthy things this time. Qianqian, you can learn from me." Yunze and Lin Qianqian both nodded obediently.
Yunze sat cross-legged in front of the altar, channeling his magic power into the crystal ball, casting exorcism and purification spells in turn.
As Yunze cast his spell, the pitch-black crystal sphere gradually changed, and the black color slowly faded away.
The oppressive atmosphere in the Cloud Void Realm gradually faded, and all the birds, beasts, insects, and fish quieted down, no longer restless; they were all waiting quietly...
Three days and three nights later, half of the black aura in the crystal ball had dissipated, and Yunze was covered in sweat, which made Lin Qianqian, who was watching from the side, very worried.
Seeing that things were almost done, Lu Wu turned to Lin Qianqian and asked, "Have you learned them?" Lin Qianqian didn't react at first, so Lu Wu asked again, "Have you learned the purification spell and the exorcism spell?"
This time she understood and nodded.
For three days and three nights, she watched Yunze perform the spell countless times. She remembered the incantation and hand gestures clearly.
After all, cultivating immortality had also improved her memory, and she had secretly used it several times, all of which were successful.
"Then it's your turn. Try to hold on as long as possible so that Yunze can recover his spiritual power." Lin Qianqian readily agreed and stood in front of the altar, replacing Yunze.
Yunze, finally able to rest, quickly took a Rejuvenation Pill and then meditated to recover.
The two of them took turns persisting for ten days and ten nights. The moment the last trace of resentment and filth dissipated, the entire Cloud Void Realm felt relaxed and bright, and all things seemed to be stretching their bodies.
The three people in front of the altar breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Wu first said to Yun Ze, "Thank you for not chasing after me out of the secret realm to seek revenge as soon as you recovered your strength, but for staying in the secret realm to help me eliminate this resentment and filth."
Yunze cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Senior, I said that after I recovered, I would share your burdens, and I will keep my promise."
"Good! I knew I was right about you."
After he finished speaking, he said to Lin Qianqian, "My remnant soul cannot hold on for much longer and can no longer guard the Cloud Void Realm. Miss Lin, are you willing to become the new master and guardian of the Cloud Void Realm, and protect the eternal rest of the immortal venerables?"
These words sounded as if they were entrusting the Cloud Void Realm to Lin Qianqian.
Even the usually composed Yun Ze was somewhat surprised. He glanced at Lu Wu, then turned to look at Lin Qianqian. But she kept her head down and didn't look at them.
At this moment, Lin Qianqian was looking down at her right hand, and above her right hand, a virtual panel that only she could see appeared.
