Seven days have passed in the outside world, and most of the students who originally went into the cultivation tower have already come out, except for Ji Jiuying, who is still inside the cultivation tower.
However, in just seven days, the outside world had undergone tremendous changes. The news that the divine artifact, the Blazing Sun Bow, was in Ji Jiuying's hands somehow spread throughout the Cangming Continent. Most of the experts on the Cangming Continent gathered around the perimeter of the Star Academy, and even the people inside the Star Academy were eager to make a move!
Who could resist the allure of the divine weapon, the Blazing Sun Bow?
Now that news of her contracting the divine artifact, the Blazing Sun Bow, has spread throughout the Cangming Continent, it's likely to cause a bloodbath, and her future days won't be easy!
The training tower is now heavily guarded and completely sealed off to prevent any reckless individuals from entering the academy!
Shen Qingqiu glanced at the cultivation tower and saw that only the fifth floor's green lamp was lit, which meant that Ji Jiuying was still on the fifth floor.
"Father, what should we do? Xiao Jiu has been on the fifth floor for days!"
Shen Qingqiu glanced at the group of people behind her and shook her head helplessly, "Once she enters this cultivation tower, there's no outside interference; she can only rely on herself!"
"The fifth level is the inner demon. If she can't overcome it, she'll be stuck at the fifth level forever. But judging from the current situation, it seems she's willingly staying at this level..."
The group exchanged glances, their expressions filled with worry as they looked at the cultivation tower. The rumors circulating outside were rampant and were very detrimental to her current situation. Now, she was trapped on the fifth floor of the cultivation tower, and they couldn't understand what Ji Jiuying's inner demons were!
Most people can't get past the fifth level of inner demons and will be teleported out with a token within a day. But Xiao Jiu is currently unwilling to get out of the inner demon level, which means her obsession is too deep!
Meanwhile, Feng Che lowered his head and gently stroked the jade pendant in his hand. His jade pendant could be connected to the jade pendant on Xiao Jiu's body, but once he made the connection, Feng Luo would definitely notice!
Then something occurred to him, and his eyes lit up. "Qingling, try using your communication butterfly!"
Feng Che's words instantly reminded Qingling, and everyone's eyes focused on her. "Yes, yes, yes, the communication butterfly!"
"Qingling, do you have a communication butterfly?" Wen Longting asked in surprise.
"Uh-huh!"
"Then let's give it a try!" the elder said, as everyone placed their hopes on Qingling.
Qingling nodded, gathered spiritual energy in her hands, and released the communication butterfly. Everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on the communication butterfly as it slowly approached the cultivation tower and finally disappeared into it.
Everyone was overjoyed, "It's a success!"
However, before they could even feel happy, Qingling felt a sharp pain in her head, "The communication butterfly is dead!"
Her words, spoken lightly, were like ice water poured over everyone! They immediately hung their heads in dejection!
"Perhaps we can try this: Qingling can gather more communication butterflies, and we will protect her, while Master, the Grand Elder, and Teacher Feng will escort the communication butterflies. However, this method will consume a lot of Qingling's mental energy..."
Upon hearing Wen Chuyu's words, Qingling was the first to nod in agreement. It would only take a little effort, but it was all worth it for her mistress.
Everyone nodded in agreement. This was the only way to try it now. A single communication butterfly could be killed by the barrier of the cultivation tower, but with dozens or hundreds of them, surely one would survive and get in!
Without hesitation, Qingling took the pill ahead of time, began to gather spiritual energy, and released more communication butterflies.
Wen Chuyu and the others also began to protect Qingling from all sides. Seeing this, Feng Che and the others began to gather spiritual power to form a barrier, enveloping each teleportation butterfly. More and more spirit butterflies flew out from Qingling's forehead.
More and more beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, eventually sliding down her cheeks and dripping onto her dress. Her back was also soaked. Qingling gritted her teeth and persevered. More than a hundred communication butterflies entered the cultivation tower. Exhausted, she withdrew her spiritual energy. Before she could react, she suddenly vomited several mouthfuls of blood. If Wen Longting and the others hadn't acted quickly, she would have collapsed to the ground!
"Light and agile!"
"Light and agile!"
"Are you alright?" Wen Longxiu took out a pill and fed it to her, but it still had no effect!
A metallic, sweet taste kept rising in her throat, indicating that more and more communication butterflies were dying! Qingling leaned weakly against Wen Longting, blood constantly trickling from the corner of her mouth.
"I...I'm fine, I can keep going!"
puff--
She coughed up another mouthful of blood, her face paling slightly. But then she smiled faintly, "A...a communication butterfly went in!"
After saying that, Qingling closed her eyes and fainted!
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief!
"Xiaoting, Axiu, Miaoqing, the three of you take Qingling to rest first. We'll stay here and keep watch," Shen Qingqiu instructed.
Upon hearing this, the group took Qingling to rest first!
"Ah Yue, do you know what? I saw the words you wrote down as a wish on the Lantern Festival!"
"You say, how can one find a way to have it all, to be true to both the Buddha and the beloved!"
"Ah Yue, I miss you so much. I miss your unique scent, your mischievous smile, everything about you..."
The girl leaning against the ice coffin was deathly pale, frighteningly so. She chuckled as she spoke, but her dark eyes were as lifeless as ashes. At this moment, she was like a walking corpse.
She didn't know when it started, but she had come to care about him so much. He lay so lonely in this ice coffin; if this was a dream, she didn't want to wake up, she just wanted to stay by his side...
Two colorful butterflies appeared in the vast expanse of clouds and mist, entering Ji Jiuying's field of vision!
It's light and agile...
Her previously empty eyes now flickered with an unreadable emotion. "Miss, this is all part of the environment. Come out quickly, it's already..." The two butterflies were killed by the aura emanating from the ice coffin before they could even get close!
Wen Longting and Shen Miaoqing had just helped Qingling change her clothes when she vomited all over her again! Wen Longxiu put down the medicine she was holding and took a few steps forward. "It seems the butterfly that went in is dead too! I wonder if it was teleported to..."
"Xiaoting, you stay here and help me take care of Qingling. Miaoqing, go and tell them!"
"good!"
Upon hearing what Shen Miaoqing said, Shen Qingqiu, Feng Che, and the others could only silently pray that Xiao Jiu would be able to see the communication butterfly!
An illusion! In fact, she knew it was an illusion. Even if the person in the ice coffin was fake, she just wanted to see him one more time. But... recalling Qingling's last words, what happened outside?
Her intuition told her that something serious might have happened, and it was related to her! Otherwise, Qingling wouldn't have risked sending the communication butterfly in, and it was impossible for Qingling to send the communication butterfly in on her own!
