Luan looked at the object in Ingrid's hand and saw a 140 cm black scythe, but what caught the most attention was the neon crimson red pattern designs on the scythe.
"This is part of the inheritance, right?" Luan asked rhetorically.
"Yes." Ingrid nodded and said urgently, "Are we going to get out of this cave? It looks like it will fall apart at any mont."
"Yes, let's get out of here." Saying that, Luan and Ingrid left the cave. Seconds later, the cave collapsed.
"Where are the scythe and orb?" Luan asked as he carried the backpack made of lion skin on his back.
"Here's the scythe." Ingrid showed him a pendant with a black chain and a crimson red scythe the size of a thumb attached to it, but the orb... She was agitated, believing that she forgot in the cave. "I don't have the orb. I think I dropped it."
Seeing Luan's expressionless reaction, Ingrid started to feel guilty, but then she saw a smile curl on Luan's lips and realized that he was playing with her.
"It is here with . You almost left it inside the cave." Luan took the orb out of his pocket.
"Luan! You almost scared to death!" Ingrid snorted in anger resentfully as she pouted.
Luan chuckled and said next, "Okay, I'm going to stop teasing you, and we better get out of here; the noise may end up attracting so frantic animals."
After walking for a few minutes towards the north, Luan said to Ingrid, "We are close to the exit. In fact, this forest is very good. This will be of great help to you."
"I think so, too, but I'm too weak at the mont to be able to handle this for probably quite so ti," Ingrid said with a sigh. "Before, I felt that my Blood Qi decreased very quickly just by holding this scythe. It was then that this scythe took on the shape of a pendant. Maybe it felt like it was hurting ? Well, at least that's what I think; I'm not sure."
"Not surprising. This weapon is top-notch, but at the mont it is not recomnded to use it if it is not an ergency." Although he did not know much about this weapon, he knew it was at least from the Fifth Order. It may even have been from the Sixth Order, but there was no way for him to find out without studying the sickle a little. However, the priority now was to leave this place.
"Ah yes, I said Blood Qi. This is from a core of energy, which was ford..."
Luan laughed and said, "I know. It is a nucleus that was created in the center of your body, right?"
"Boring, because you didn't let explain, even though you already knew. At least you could pretend to be surprised," Ingrid said, pretending to be angry.
"Okay, I will try my best to fake surprise next ti," Luan answered seriously.
After running for a few minutes, Luan and Ingrid quickly arrived around the lake of blood.
"Mm, in fact, this bloody forest was originally from Emperor Shen, that sa man whose na you read at the shrine. Now this bloody forest has beco practically mine," Ingrid said excitedly.
It was not as if Luan had not guessed it; he realized at the mont that Ingrid had passed the test, moreover, the orb was connected to this bloody forest. If they were to leave and then want to return, as long as they had adequate strength for the orb absorb, they could open a crack to this bloody forest.
"Ohh! Then that's it?! This place will be very useful to you in the future." Luan had already discovered that Ingrid had a Blood Origin, although not yet awakened. She must have received so blood cultivation technique. This explained Ingrid's big rise in her cultivation, and also why she felt more powerful from the beginning in this forest. Of course, as promised before, he feigned surprise.
"Yes, before disappearing, in addition to a cultivation technique, Emperor Shen gave so information." Ingrid was satisfied with his reaction and continued to say, "Mm, can now say that he is my Master? Well, he taught a cultivation technique, and he also gave the orb and this weapon, as well as this bloody forest."
Ingrid touched the necklace pendant around her neck. It was precisely the scythe pendant.
"That's pretty much it, but he's already dead, correct?" Luan asked. He understood that now that Ingrid inherited Emperor Shen's inheritance, she had basically beco his disciple. Holding Ingrid's hand, he started walking with her under the bloody canopy.
Ingrid no longer felt as shy as before, but it was inevitable that holding Luan's big, strong hand made her heart beat faster.
Taking a deep breath, as soon as they crossed the blood river, Ingrid said, "Yes, and it seed that he only left a little of his soul, or whatever, in the orb to find an heir to his legacy."
As Luan already had his "backpack" full of things, he used his Qi to scare the animals nearby. When they walked for a long ti, Luan and Ingrid saw a crack.
"We are finally able to leave." Ingrid blew out a long breath. She couldn't wait to go back and take a shower. Her body had dried blood everywhere; it was uncomfortable to be like that.
Luan nodded. He also wanted to get back soon. In addition, Ingrid owned the orb that gave access to this forest; there was no reason to feel conflicted about leaving this place now since they could return again soon.
When they passed through the dinsional gap, Luan and Ingrid fell into the sea. Luan could very well make them float on top of the water, but he didn't. He only made the backpack able to float because he wanted to avoid getting it wet with seawater. He did this by surrounding it with his Qi.
*Splash!*
Ingrid looked at Luan as she stuck her head out of the water, but then she noticed it was already day. "How long did we stay inside that forest?"
Luan, who was rubbing his body with seawater, wanting to get the sticky blood off of his body, replied, "Almost 9 hours has passed."
"... We stayed out all night? Your mother must be worried," Ingrid said with regret.
"I don't think she's worried..." Luan murmured. He could imagine that his mother imagined that he and Ingrid stayed out all night playing "football".
"Did you say sothing?" Ingrid was not able to hear, since Luan had murmured what he said very quietly. Even with her improved hearing, she was strangely unable to hear him.
"I said you are beautiful." Luan looked into her eyes.
"Idiot..." Ingrid blushed when she heard this. She knew he only said it to change the subject, but it worked...
Ingrid did the sa as Luan, and began to rub her body with seawater, drawing the dried blood from her body. Leaving the sea, Ingrid and Luan walked on the sand on the beach heading towards Luan's car. Before getting into the car, Luan used his Qi to dry their clothes. Ingrid still needed to learn to use her Qi properly, so she had to rely on Luan's help.
Opening the trunk of the car, Luan put on his backpack and his dagger made of bone and tooth. Ingrid also kept the dagger she had received from Luan. She wanted to keep that dagger as a souvenir.
Getting in the car, Luan didn't have to drive for long until he arrived at his ho. He pressed the garage door button and entered the garage with his car.
Luan did not take things out of the trunk. He would co back to do it later. First, he wanted to take a shower and remove the sll of blood and the sea from his body. Ingrid was the sa; she urgently needed a shower.
By the ti the two opened the door, Maira was already awake, waiting for them sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Maira walked towards them. She frowned when she slled a strange sll from both of them. "Why are you two reeking of the sea and... Blood? My god, were you hurt?!" She was definitely worried.
"It's okay, mom. We are not hurt," Luan said to her, "It's a long story. Can we talk later?"
