Chapter 255: Chapter 254: Yue’Er Slays the Twin Fiends
Chu Lin saw Wei Qun fainting and was also powerless, as both the Profound Ice Toad and Fiery Fire Spider released their Origin Energy, destroying all the trees within a twenty-ter radius.
Chu Linfeng gritted his teeth and endured painfully. If he hadn’t already reached the Third Layer of the Star Body, he might have been left with only half a life, if not dead.
"Lin Feng, this is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity. The Profound Ice Toad and Fiery Fire Spider don’t belong to the Magical Beast category. In ancient tis, they ranked among the top ten ferocious creatures, and it’s unknown why they’ve appeared here," Sword Spirit said.
Chu Lin was vexed as he watched the phenonon in the distance. At this mont, the invisible Fiery Fire Spider revealed its body, surprisingly not much smaller than a face basin, with its entire body glowing red.
Chu Linfeng couldn’t understand why this Fiery Fire Spider was red yet could turn invisible. It was very strange.
"Sister Ling’er, why are these two ferocious creatures fighting to the death? Are they natural enemies?" Chu Linfeng asked.
"Indeed. In ancient tis, there were five major poisonous creatures, all considered extrely ferocious: Fiery Fire Spider, Profound Ice Toad, Gold-Breaking Blood Snake, Netherwing Centipede, and Three-headed King Scorpion. They are naturally mortal enemies, and whenever one encounters another, it results in an unending conflict to the death.
Otherwise, you’d be dead multiple tis over. The white mist expelled by the Profound Ice Toad is more potent than Cold Fla, and the flas from the Fiery Fire Spider are more overwhelming than the Dragon Fla of the Fire Dragon," Sword Spirit said.
Chu Linfeng noticed a pigeon egg-sized object shining brightly on the vacant ground between the Profound Ice Toad and Fiery Fire Spider, which was very peculiar.
"Sister Yue’Er, what’s that thing on the ground?" Chu Linfeng hurriedly asked, feeling it could be beneficial to him.
"Hehe, you’ve finally seen it. That’s the reason I wanted you to stay here. It’s the energy product ford by the battle between the Profound Ice Toad and Fiery Fire Spider, called Celestial Crystal. It’s equivalent to a naturally-ford Energy Baryte.
This Celestial Crystal is similar to the Ice Fla Crystal you obtained. It has similar energy, but Ice Fla Crystal contains Ice and Fire Energy, which requires neutralization for absorption. In contrast, this Celestial Crystal can be absorbed directly; do you understand?" Ling’er joked.
"It’s indeed a treasure, but I don’t know how long these two are going to continue. If this keeps up, I won’t be able to hold on much longer," Chu Linfeng said helplessly.
"They should continue for another hour. Neither dares to move at this point. The Celestial Crystal is also highly useful to them; whoever obtains it will be the final victor.
Because moving would allow the opposing side to gain the upper hand, even if they obtained the Celestial Crystal, it couldn’t reverse the disadvantage. They can only rely on their own energy to see who can last the longest.
The final victor will not only recover Primordial Energy from the Celestial Crystal but, more importantly, from the opponent’s Inner Core, which contains energy several tis more powerful than the Celestial Crystal. That’s also why they fight to the death upon encountering each other."
Chu Linfeng learned sothing new once again. With a flash of inspiration, he imdiately said, "If they die later, won’t I be able to obtain two Inner Cores? Absorbing them would surely break through to the Divine Martial Realm?"
"You’re thinking too naively. Humans can’t absorb the Inner Cores from such ferocious creatures, no matter how strong they beco. Perhaps this is a balance law between heaven and earth, like how you beca this way after using the Reincarnation Bracelet.
However, the Inner Cores can be absorbed by your little fox and bird; the corpses can be devoured by the lion, which will have a trendous impact. The fox and bird breaking through to the King Tier shouldn’t be a problem, and the small lion should be able to advance one or two realms as well," Sword Spirit said.
Chu Linfeng almost laughed out loud after hearing this. It’s indeed a great opportunity; this ti, he truly stumbled upon a treasure, and in the future, he would have two more reliable assistants by his side.
"Don’t get too happy too soon. The sooner you absorb the Celestial Crystal, the greater the enhancent to your body’s realm, as the energy will dissipate. In your current state, it’s already good if you can break through two tiers when you can absorb it.
That’s why I said you’re both lucky and unlucky," Sword Spirit imdiately splashed cold water on Chu Linfeng.
Chu Linfeng wasn’t disappointed after hearing it; breaking through two realms would an reaching the Eighth Level of Earth Martial Realm, allowing him to challenge a First Layer of Celestial Martial Realm expert, and perhaps even a Second Layer one.
Ti passed by minute by minute, and the Ice and Fire Two Realms of taste made Chu Linfeng’s body feel a piercing pain, unable to operate Chaos Qi, which drove him into a frenzy.
Perhaps Sword Spirit saw that Chu Linfeng truly couldn’t endure it anymore; light flashed from his brow as a faint Light Shield enveloped him, and the pain on Chu Linfeng’s body imdiately lessened.
At this mont, the Profound Ice Qi and blazing fla expelled by Profound Ice Toad and Fiery Fire Spider had significantly weakened, indicating their energy was nearly exhausted, yet neither intended to stop.
Energy from the ground continued to form the Celestial Crystal, gradually growing larger; now it was the size of an egg, which made Chu Linfeng very pleased.
Right then, Chu Linfeng saw the Profound Ice Toad and Fiery Fire Spider start moving their bodies simultaneously, slowly inching toward the Celestial Crystal on the ground, clearly both wanting to obtain it to replenish their expended energy.
Chu Linfeng suddenly panicked; if those creatures got it, everything he wanted would be gone, and maybe he’d lose his life here.
Just as he was in extre anxiety, a flash of light lit up his brow, followed by a white little sword appearing instantaneously, then a silhouette resembling a hazy maiden materialized before him.
This was the fourth ti Sword Spirit Yue’er appeared before Chu Linfeng; although blurry, her appearance was still discernible. Clad in white that was whiter than snow, truly a beauty unrivaled.
Sword Spirit’s silhouette danced continuously before Chu Linfeng, wielding a small white sword evoking infinite sword intent. Chu Linfeng heard a voice say, Immortal Slaying Sword Technique Ninth Form, Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Slayer, before Sword Spirit Yue’er’s form vanished.
Reaching the battlefield between Profound Ice Toad and Fiery Fire Spider, Chu Linfeng only saw a sky filled with sword shadows appearing among the two. He felt the attack power of these sword shadows could instantly pulverize him.
"So this is Yue’er’s power? Even in the spirit state? What realm would she be in when she had a physical body? Could it be Saint Martial Realm? Immortal Slaying Sword Technique, what a domineering na!" Chu Linfeng murmured in his heart.
Two indescribable cries then reached Chu Linfeng’s ears; he saw the Profound Ice Toad and Fiery Fire Spider were immobile, with their entire bodies shattered into pieces, dead beyond portrayal.
And Sword Spirit’s form also flashed light before transforming into a small sword, returning to Chu Linfeng’s brow.
"Lin Feng, take out the Fire Dragon Spirit dicine you have. I think there’s a Soul dicine inside; I need to replenish my Soul Power. Have your little lion bring over the Inner Core and Celestial Crystal..."
