Half an hour later, Fang Wei stepped down from the candlestick with difficulty through the cracks in the stone wall, slowly landed on the ground while hanging on the rope on the wall, and then climbed up the high steps on the ground to walk out of the cave. Finally, he arrived at the stream outside the cave as he wished.
Sitting on a small stone beside the stream and looking down at his own reflection in the water, Fang Wei finally understood what the two spirits, Baibai and Dandan, meant by the flaws. At this moment, his reflection in the water was still the same face he was familiar with, except that his eyes had turned into a gem-like red, and above his head, there was a pair of tall rabbit ears.
Not only that, Fang Wei seemed to sense something and reached behind him, and soon he touched a short, furry rabbit tail.
Fang Wei: “…”
Thinking about what these two spiritual creatures had done in the past, Fang Wei was not surprised at all by the situation before him. Instead, he felt that it was all within his expectations. After all, these two spiritual creatures were just the most ordinary first-level spiritual creatures, and their abilities were limited to this. If they could immediately create a new body for him that was no different from the previous one, that would be an incredible thing.
Fang Wei stared at his reflection in the water and felt amused, but his silence made the two spirit creatures anxious: "Master, we didn't mean to do this, but we don't have enough spiritual power, so we can only let you stay like this for now."
"Baibai is right. We almost couldn't even maintain our human form to help the master. Otherwise, we can only... mmm..."
Dandan seemed to be stopped by Baibai halfway through her words, and Baibai continued, "Or if the master doesn't like this look, you can also change it into the look that Dandan prepared for the master."
Fang Wei was silent for a moment, then said, "Let Dandan come."
Upon hearing this, Dandan quickly responded, and then a wisp of spiritual power swirled around his body. When the smoke dissipated, Fang Wei looked at his reflection in the water again, and found that he had turned into another appearance.
His facial expression remained unchanged, except that his pupils and long hair had turned light pink. He wore a crown woven with peach blossoms on his head, and his robes had turned snow-white with peach blossoms dotted around them.
Fang Wei only took a glance, then immediately looked away, and said in a steady voice without any abnormality: "Let's just use the body that Bai Bai prepared."
As Bai Bai responded immediately, Fang Wei returned to his previous appearance.
Fang Wei knew that this body of his was not actually a complete body. It was just the blood and essence left over from his original body that was protected by Hua Shi's luck. Just as the two spiritual creatures had said just now, his body was only able to transform into a human form with the support of Baibai and Dandan's spiritual power. And because of this, this body became close to the appearance of the two spiritual creatures, so it was somewhat similar to the semi-spiritual state.
In order to recover his body, he also needed to recover his spiritual power as soon as possible. However, recovering spiritual power was not something that could be done overnight. He had to practice every day like before, and it would take at least a hundred years to barely become a normal person. And if he wanted to recover his peak strength, it would probably take more than five hundred years.
For Fang Wei, this was not a pity. If the spiritual power was gone, he could practice again. It was not difficult to walk the path he had walked before. Moreover, there were ways to recover as soon as possible. Hua Shi's Yunxiu Pen space was full of spiritual power, so practicing there should be the best choice.
But first, he had to leave the forest and go to Xuanling Pavilion to find Hua Shi.
Seeing Fang Wei fall silent again, Bai Bai quickly said: "Master, although this body looks weak, it is actually very useful. Master can still use our abilities in this semi-spiritual state! Master's strength has not yet recovered, so borrowing these abilities should still be of some use!"
Fang Wei asked: "What abilities do they have?"
Bai Bai immediately said: "Use the body I prepared, the master's bite force will increase, and he will be able to bite through anything."
Fang Wei was silent for a moment, then said, "What do you think I can do with this ability?"
Bai Bai seemed to be stumped by this question for a moment, and he laughed dryly twice before whispering, "There is another ability, Master, you can have the jumping ability of a rabbit. You can jump very high and run very fast. When necessary, you can easily escape the enemy's pursuit."
This ability sounds much more useful than the previous one. Fang Wei said "hmm" softly. Before she could ask any more questions, she heard Dandan rushing to say, "And me! The master can also use the body I prepared. The master can even emit the fragrance of flowers when using my body!"
Fang Wei: “Hmm?”
Dandan said quickly: "There is also nectar! The master's tears can also be turned into nectar!"
It didn't sound much better than the rabbit avatar. Fang Wei felt a little headache but also found it funny: "I understand."
Dandan seemed to feel that she was not able to help much. After hearing what Fang Wei said, she pondered for a while before muttering softly, "Master, you can still sprout..."
Fang Wei was silent for a moment, and wondered what he thought of: "Sprout?"
After a slight hesitation, he said, "Master, if you plant your hair in the soil, it will grow into beautiful peach blossom branches."
Fang Wei thought about it carefully and said, "It seems to be helpful."
Seeing Fang Wei nod and say this, Dandan immediately became delighted: "Really? Can Dandan help the master?"
Baibai also started to call out when he saw this, trying to attract Fang Wei's attention. Fang smiled and responded to them. After he got used to his body, he finally calmed the two spirits down. "Okay, I still want to ask you something. You were all awake during the time I lost consciousness, right?"
Bai Bai and Dan Dan finally saw Fang Wei asking them, and they immediately cheered up and said, "Although we were unconscious for a while after the battle in Huo Yuan, we woke up faster than Brother Jiu Xiao!"
"We all know what happened during this period. Master, what do you want to ask us?"
Fang Wei didn't want to stay by the stream any longer and look at himself with rabbit ears, so he went to the tree next to him and tried to use the ability of his semi-spiritual body to jump onto the bushes that were too tall for him.
Just as Baibai and Dandan said just now, his body was indeed light enough. He easily jumped between the branches and sat down on them lightly.
Because his body was so small, even if he sat on an ordinary branch of a bush, he seemed to have no weight.
He sat down and asked, "How long has it been since the Battle of the Abyss?"
Bai Bai rushed to respond: "More than a hundred years have passed. Master, you have been sleeping for a long time."
Fang Wei paused for a moment, lowered his eyelashes and asked softly, "A hundred years?"
For him, the fact that a hundred years had passed was not too surprising. He had been prepared to lose his life since the battle with the giant beast. Even if he did not pay the price of his life, it would take hundreds or even thousands of years for him to recover. Now he had only been unconscious for a hundred years, which was already the best situation.
I just don’t know what the current situation of Xuanling Pavilion is, and what the situation of Lingdao is.
Fang Wei then asked Baibai and Dandan about what had happened in the past hundred years, but unfortunately, all they knew was what had happened nearby, and they had no way of knowing more about the situation in this forest.
From the conversation with them, Fang Wei learned that the place where they are now should be the mountain forest near the disaster abyss. After Fang Wei got into trouble, the three spiritual creatures that had formed a bond with him found a way to bring his remaining soul, which was protected by the golden light of luck, to this forest. However, the three spiritual creatures were very weak at that time. The Nine Sky White Dragon fell into a deep sleep after helping Fang Wei stabilize his soul. Only Bai Baidan was less affected and woke up again after sleeping for only a short while.
After waking up, the two spiritual creatures, White Rabbit and Peach Blossom, settled down in the woods. They found the cave where Fang Wei had woken up before, and placed Fang Wei's soul into the lampstand. Then they began to search for spiritual stones in the forest, hoping to use the power of the spiritual stones to help Fang Wei rebuild his body and regain consciousness as soon as possible.
During these hundred years, a lot of changes have taken place in the forest. At first, the forest was very quiet. The group of black snakes and the giant beasts were all swallowed up by the spiritual energy released by the Abyss of Disaster formation. No living creature dared to approach the Abyss of Disaster or the forests near it. The gate to the spiritual realm that was originally opened by the black snakes appeared in the Abyss of Disaster, but no spiritual creatures had entered or exited it for a long time. The people of Xuanqing Continent were also wary of it.
Until several years passed, for some unknown reason, people had been guarding the Spirit Realm Gate for a long time, and finally saw the first spiritual creature walk out of the Spirit Realm Gate.
When the two sides met, they realized that both the Spirit Realm and the Xuanqing Continent were no longer disturbed by the monster and were all safe.
Without the giant beast and the black snake, the spiritual realm returned to its previous state, and the people of Xuanqing Continent were no longer wary of it. However, the gate to the spiritual realm can no longer be closed easily as before and is only opened once every three years. After discussion among people, they decided not to restrict the exchanges between the spiritual creatures within the gate of the spiritual realm and the people of Xuanqing Continent. Later, gradually, because the gate to the spiritual realm was open all year round, the spiritual creatures gradually adapted to the rules of Xuanqing Continent and began to be able to walk freely here.
Nowadays, the people of Xuanqing Continent no longer form pacts with spiritual creatures through the Spirit Transformation Conference every three years as before. Instead, young disciples roam the world freely, freely looking for the most suitable partner for themselves.
Of course, the choice may also be reversed, with the spirit creature choosing what kind of person to form a covenant with.
These things had happened in this forest before. Baibai and Dandan had never shown up before and just watched quietly, so they wrote down all these things and now told them to Fang Wei. However, the things about the evil way and Xuanling Pavilion all happened in the outside world, so they naturally didn't know about them.
After listening to their stories, Fang Wei had a general understanding of the current situation of Xuanqing Continent. He had never thought that celestial beings and humans could live together on this continent without forming a contract, but now it seems like a good life.
"Thank you for your hard work over the past hundred years." Fang Wei said to Bai Bai and Dan Dan, looking up at the sun hanging high in the distance through the gaps between the branches, recalling that when he was imprisoned in the Abyss of Misfortune, he had also seen the world change dramatically. Although Xuanqing Continent has still changed a lot after waking up this time, it seems to be heading in a better direction.
He was in a good mood, and said to the two spirit creatures in his heart: "Okay, we should leave here."
