Chapter 212
Cheng Hui covered his face, trying to lower the temperature...
After hugging Cheng Hui's neck and being intimate with him for a while, Lin Qingyang let go of his hand contentedly.
Cheng Hui covered his face, trying to cool down a little.
He rolled his eyes at Lin Qingyang without any threat, and then immersed himself in the problem of the formation again.
After Lin Qingyang packed up his things, he sat aside, holding his chin with both hands, admiring the handsome man with a smile.
Time passed quietly, and Lin Qingyang didn't feel bored at all. Instead, he felt more and more cheerful.
However……
Suddenly, a loud explosion was heard not far away. The two of them raised their heads at the same time and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a spiritual storm suddenly erupting above the water vein.
Cheng Hui: ...Fuck!
Lin Qingyang's face suddenly changed. In his memory, he had faced spiritual energy storms several times before, but at that time he had reached the stage of transformation of spirit and could cross the void. For him, spiritual energy storms of this level could be resisted with just some spells.
But at this time, he was only at the Golden Core stage, and he might die if he didn't handle it properly.
The most important thing is that the outbreak and annihilation of the spiritual storm left no trace at all, so he had to be extremely vigilant to avoid any accidents.
"Hold on tight. I need to pay close attention to the storm's trajectory. I can't afford to be distracted."
"I understand!" Cheng Hui answered neatly.
The two hugged each other tightly. To prevent them from being blown away by the storm, Lin Qingyang took out a magic weapon and tied the two together.
Looking at the golden bracelets and shackles, Cheng Hui's eyes were subtle… I didn't expect you to be such a Lin Qingyang!
Don't think I can't tell what this is! The friction-proof fleece inside the bracelet already reveals its identity!
Lin Qingyang's gaze shifted lightly to the side, not daring to meet Cheng Hui's gaze.
He stared intently at the gradually approaching void storm, as if he didn't notice Cheng Hui's increasingly subtle look.
Lin Qingyang: Ahem... I can only pretend to be dead at this time..._(:з」∠)_
It happened so quickly that before the two of them could react, the huge spiritual energy storm swept over and swallowed them both into the storm.
Cheng Hui didn't have time to think about Lin Qingyang's purpose in refining this magical weapon. He reflexively hugged the man in his arms and tried to cover him as much as possible.
Lin Qingyang did not struggle. He knew very well that the defense of their bodies was not at the same level at all. His struggle would only cause trouble for Cheng Hui and would not have any effect.
He just kept throwing out magic weapons to inspire them to protect Cheng Hui, but in the spiritual storm, the magic weapons could only produce one tenth of their effect and could only barely protect some key parts.
The time of being caught in the spiritual energy storm was both quick and long.
Cheng Hui couldn't quite make it out. He could only feel that the moment he was sucked into the spiritual energy storm, countless sharp blades began to cut his body again and again.
Cheng Hui's body can become very insensitive when necessary, but even so, the dull pain is still very unbearable.
This is what being cut into pieces is like...
Cheng Hui thought to himself that it was a good thing Qingyang was protected in his arms. Even his defense was destroyed so badly in the spiritual energy storm. If Lin Qingyang was exposed, he would probably have been seriously injured.
Fortunately, Qingyang should be fine...
Thinking of this, Cheng Hui hugged the person in his arms tighter, curled up as much as possible, and used his body to block all the damage coming towards the other person.
After a long time... or perhaps just a few seconds, Cheng Hui felt as if everything around him had disappeared.
He opened his eyes, and saw a bright red. The whole world seemed to be stained with blood.
——Oh, it turns out that the blood flowed into the eyes. It’s okay then.
He wiped his eyes, and sure enough, the world returned to normal, except that everything was floating in the white air, including himself.
He looked down at Lin Qingyang in his arms, who had fallen into a coma.
Obviously, he was seriously injured in the huge impact of the spiritual energy storm even with his own protection.
Cheng Hui noticed that most of the injuries on his body were concentrated on his back, which was a part he could not protect.
He touched Qingyang's chest and found his heart beating very strongly, so it seemed that there was no serious problem.
He took out the healing pill and fed it to him. The effect of the medicine was immediate and Lin Qingyang woke up.
After waking up, he glanced around and felt relieved. He said in a hoarse voice, "It's relatively safe here, but we may encounter other dangers. I'll heal my wounds first. You hold on."
"It's okay, my injury is not serious." Cheng Hui hurriedly comforted.
Lin Qingyang looked at Cheng Hui deeply. He knew very well whether Cheng Hui's injury was serious or not, but he knew even more clearly that if he did not recover quickly, both of them would be in trouble if any danger occurred.
He closed his eyes and began to heal his wounds. Cheng Hui looked at him for a while, and seeing that he would not wake up for a while, he simply tied him to his back, turned around and began to look around with interest.
As I said before, the place he is in now is very interesting. It seems to be the center of the storm. Compared to the violent outside, it is unusually quiet here.
Cheng Hui tried to move. The wounds on his limbs and back were a little painful, but bearable. However, there seemed to be a lot of spiritual power in his body that did not belong to him, running rampant everywhere, making him feel very uncomfortable.
He estimated that Lin Qingyang would start healing his wounds immediately, most likely to solve the problem of spiritual energy.
He had discovered that the spiritual energy where he was was terribly thin, which meant that to use spells here, they would need to consume the spiritual power in their bodies.
Under normal circumstances, he would just use it, and after it was used up, he would be able to recover gradually, even if it was slow. However, if the spiritual energy in his body that did not belong to him could not be expelled as soon as possible, he would likely be greatly affected once a battle broke out.
He swam slowly in the air with Lin Qingyang on his back, like a giant frog.
In just a short while, this spiritual storm swept up a large number of objects, including some mineral materials and many broken limbs.
Even a Jindan cultivator like him was injured when he was caught up in it. It was almost impossible for ordinary foundation-building cultivators and mortals to survive under such devastation.
There were quite a few corpses swept in. Cheng Hui had seen more than ten of them. In addition to these corpses, a lot of debris was also swept in.
Compared to living things, these inanimate objects have been well preserved.
Cheng Hui just floated forward, picking up a lot of ores and Qiankun bags along the way.
He didn't know where this spiritual energy storm had swept through. He found quite a lot of stored items, even a complete puppet - in the image of a stunning beauty, and he didn't know whose treasure it was...
Cheng Hui felt very strange. To be honest, although this spiritual energy storm came suddenly, it was not enough to sweep across the entire water veins of Qiankun City. Moreover, what he discovered in the center of the storm was far beyond the average level of those formation masters.
To put it bluntly... some things are just too expensive. For example, the beautiful puppet just now, judging from her clothes, this should be a puppet serving as a maid, but this puppet actually has a cultivation level close to that of a Nascent Soul... It's outrageous!
Cheng Hui was shocked by the appearance of the puppet at first and thought it was a living person who had lost consciousness. Until he touched the maid's skin, the metallic texture made him immediately realize that it was just a puppet.
The owner of the puppet seemed to have deliberately made its appearance like a living person, but he also deliberately added some omissions in many details, as if he was very conflicted inside, wanting people to treat the puppet as a real person, but also not wanting anyone to be deceived.
Cheng Hui also accidentally saw the formation on the back of the maid's neck, and realized that this maid could not only serve her master's daily life, but also act as a very high-level bodyguard.
He followed the pattern of the magic circle and found the opening mechanism hidden on the back. After opening it, he discovered that the reason why the puppet did not understand was because her energy was exhausted.
This puppet uses a top-grade spirit stone, and is a circular array composed of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. The biggest feature of the top-grade spirit stone is that it is equivalent to a rechargeable battery, not only has a large capacity, but is also reusable.
After the spiritual power of the top-grade spirit stone is exhausted, it can be placed in a place with rich spiritual energy to recharge, and then combined with the magic circle of the five elements, as long as the puppet does not participate in any high-intensity battles, there is almost no possibility of energy exhaustion.
But not only did she run out of energy, she was also unlucky enough to be left in this place with thin spiritual energy. Those top-grade spirit stones were never able to absorb enough spiritual power, which led to the unfortunate puppet being trapped here.
The value of the materials used in a puppet of this level of cultivation is absolutely astronomical. Even if the puppet is not as good as a real Nascent Soul cultivator, the Nascent Soul stage cultivation alone is enough to crush the vast majority of people in the Xuanheng Realm.
She shouldn't be here at all.
Cheng Hui stared at the puppet in a daze, wondering what was inside this spiritual storm?
Logically speaking, since the spiritual storm was formed suddenly, its interior should be empty, but it is filled with all kinds of things.
Is it possible that the interior of the spiritual energy storm is connected? Is it possible that everything the spiritual energy storm absorbs will converge here?
"What are you thinking about?"
Just as Cheng Hui was thinking, a hoarse voice came to his ears.
Lin Qingyang woke up.
"Hmm? Nothing, look..." Cheng Hui gestured to Lin Qingyang to look at the puppet.
He had his back to Lin Qingyang, so he missed the surprise that flashed in Lin Qingyang's eyes when he saw the puppet.
"So... it was hidden here... No wonder..."
"Um?"
Cheng Hui was stunned for a moment. This tone... "Do you know this puppet?"
Lin Qingyang shook his head. "I don't know him, but I know... the owner of this puppet."
He glanced at the maid puppet. The puppet had its eyes closed and its face was rosy. If anyone didn't touch it with their own hands, anyone would think she was just sleeping.
Lin Qingyang rubbed his face against Cheng Hui's shoulder, feeling the warmth beneath him. He was extremely grateful that he had not been so stubborn. No matter how realistic a puppet was, how could it be compared with a real living person?
All my efforts over the years are worth it.
"Ah Hui...I love you so much."
"Huh?" Cheng Hui was stunned. Why was she suddenly expressing her love? But he was in a relationship after all, so he said without hesitation, "I love you too."
Lin Qingyang chuckled and couldn't help burying his face in his back.
It’s so great... This kind of life is so happy!
