The sudden sound startled Shi Xuan, but she quickly calmed down.
Such a powerful demon beast, even in death, would have a soul that is difficult to annihilate. The great rift on Nightmare Floating Island is a recent development, indicating that something must have happened here to cause the spiritual energy to leak out.
Just as Shi Xuan was about to speak, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said to the air, "Senior, wait for me a moment!"
After saying that, he disappeared from the spot.
There was nothing he could do; his spiritual energy was so domineering that Shi Xuan had reached a critical point.
After returning to Yinshuang, Shi Xuan digested the spiritual energy that had flowed into her body from the outside world while pondering what to do in this situation.
Refining bones outside is impractical now; even if the spirit agrees, she can't hold out for long. She was just testing the waters. Her real intention is to bring that bone back to Silver Frost and refine it slowly there.
Silver Frost is her own world. Here, she has more control over herself. If she encounters danger, she can move her bones away at any time, either isolating them or moving them out of the space, it's up to her.
Now that the person in question is still alive, it is necessary to ask for their consent. If possible, she will take a bone; if not, then so be it.
When it comes to opportunities, Shih-hsuan always goes with the flow; if they come, great, but if they don't, it just means they weren't meant to be.
The cultivation world is vast and boundless, with many more opportunities to come.
Moreover, thanks to this spiritual power, she has advanced a small step, reaching the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage.
If one were to stay in this space for two years, reaching the Nascent Soul stage would be no problem.
After this wave of spiritual energy was sorted out, Shi Xuan reappeared in the same spot.
"Please forgive me, senior. This spiritual energy is a bit too much for me. Staying here for too long could be fatal," Shi Xuan said as soon as he came out, explaining why he had suddenly disappeared.
The aged voice snorted coldly, seemingly very dissatisfied with her making her wait: "You little brat, so weak."
Shi Xuan wanted to say that everyone started out weak. But then he thought, why bother arguing with a dead beast? Besides, he was indeed quite weak himself.
After those two sentences, Shi Xuan felt the swelling and pain in her body approaching its breaking point. She cupped her hands in apology and said, "Excuse me for a moment."
After saying that, he was about to enter Silver Frost again.
But to everyone's astonishment, Shi Xuan suddenly lost contact with Yin Shuang.
It's not that they lost contact, but Shi Xuan and Yin Shuang communicated through their divine senses, and now, Shi Xuan's divine senses were blocked! She could no longer touch Yin Shuang with her divine senses, even though Yin Shuang's entrance was tattooed on her body.
"Senior!" Shi Xuanyang exclaimed, "Why bother with this!"
She never expected that the soul of a dead demon beast could still use such supernatural powers!
If he doesn't let go, I'm afraid I'll perish here today!
The voice replied in a low, hoarse tone, "Hmph, I don't want to wait."
Shi Xuan said urgently, "If I die here, you may have to wait for hundreds of years and there is no guarantee that anyone will come again!"
As she said this, Shi Xuan felt as if a portion of her meridians had been stretched to the point of rupture. If this continued, it wouldn't be long before she exploded and died!
It would be so frustrating to die here without knowing why.
In his haste, Shi Xuan suddenly blurted out, "You probably don't know that at the easternmost edge of the Qian Yuan Continent, there's a Sea of Nightlight. At night, the entire sea emits a rainbow of colors, illuminating the whole sky—it's absolutely beautiful! And in the Strange Forest, there grows a plant that can transform and change color; you'll never find it..."
Shi Xuan's actions were also out of desperation. Ever since she couldn't communicate with Yin Shuang, she had been thinking about how to pique his interest. So she described a few strange sights, some of which were real and some of which were fabricated.
"Hmph, how would you know if you never find it?"
At this moment, Shi Xuan was bleeding from all seven orifices. She could no longer speak a complete sentence, so she could only give up and say, "You, don't look down on yourself just because you've lived a long time. You're ignorant!"
As Shi Xuan spoke, he continued to try to communicate with Yin Shuang, but to no avail; there was no response whatsoever.
Her meridians were almost completely shattered, and her dantian was stretched to its limit. Even with all her might working hard, she couldn't digest so much boiling spiritual energy in a short time. It was as if she would explode at any moment.
As her body was about to explode, Shi Xuan collapsed to the ground. Reflecting on everything that had happened since her rebirth, she realized she had no regrets. Only a deep reluctance remained for her master, her senior brothers and sisters, and that stingy sect leader, and even her best team members… Each face flashed before her eyes. Shi Xuan thought to herself, "We can only hope to meet again someday…"
Just when Shi Xuan's life hung by a thread and he seemed to have no hope left, he suddenly felt a lightness in his body. His spiritual energy stopped boiling and became docile.
The spiritual energy no longer ran rampant, but instead flowed smoothly along the meridians, just like Shi Xuan's own spiritual energy. No new spiritual energy from the outside entered; it was all isolated, just like Shi Xuan's divine consciousness, kept outside his body.
The pressure suddenly eased, and Shi Xuan, having narrowly escaped death, let out a breath of relief. She remained lying on the ground, completely unwilling to move.
I'm mentally exhausted.
The voice continued to mock her: "Hmph, no matter how knowledgeable you are, you're just a weak human."
Shi Xuan remained motionless. She lay down on the ground, thinking to herself: If he starts every sentence with a "humph," he could be named Hum-Hum Monster.
Shi Xuan still couldn't communicate with Yin Shuang, and couldn't even open her personal storage space. He had no choice but to use the power of "All Things Grow" to repair his meridians.
While repairing, he lamented what sins his meridians had committed. They had been torn and rebuilt several times by lightning spiritual power, and now it was fire spiritual power's turn. His fate was truly unfortunate.
"Hmph!" The humming monster seemed to still be interested in the outside world that Shi Xuan had described, but it was too embarrassed to ask him directly, so it snorted again to express its dissatisfaction.
Shi Xuan lay on the ground, having just narrowly escaped death, and was no longer afraid.
The main reason was that she sensed that this humming monster had probably been lonely for too long and hadn't seen anyone, so it might not be willing to kill her anytime soon.
"May I ask what kind of majestic divine beast you were in your previous life, senior?" Shi Xuan asked listlessly, lying flat. She was just trying to keep him company by making conversation.
