A Second Encounter
"Uh..." Yi Yun was stunned. Was he really going to fight?
No way, he fought with Lin Xin Tong before because Old Man Su stirred things up, but Yi Yun could tell that Lin Xin Tong didn't really want to fight him at that time.
Their cultivation level is completely disproportionate to mine; isn't this like an adult bullying a child?
However, perhaps because Lin Xin Tong was completely unpretentious, she didn't mind setting aside her status to give him some pointers, so a fight was a fight in the end.
"But what's the point of fighting today?" Yi Yun asked, puzzled. "Miss Lin, you're not joking with me, are you? What's there to fight between us?"
Lin Xin Tong. "I don't like joking. As for why I fought you, that involves a secret of mine."
"Secret?"
Yi Yun's curiosity was immediately piqued; what secrets did this Heavenly Proud Daughter hold?
It has to be said that as a modern netizen, Yi Yun is quite gossipy, but since others don't say anything, he can't just ask.
"Um... I'm a little hungry, and I don't have any energy today."
Yi Yun touched her stomach, a wry smile on her face.
Lin Xin Tong floated down from the ancient pine tree and stood in front of Yi Yun. With a flick of her finger, a streak of light flashed by.
Yi Yun instinctively caught it, and upon closer inspection, he found a red crystal the size of a peanut inside. It was crystal clear, like congealed blood, and exuded a rich aura of energy.
"This... this could be... Savage Bone Relic!?"
Yi Yun was excited. The legendary Savage Bone Relic was made by the Savage Heaven Master. It was priceless and could only be enjoyed by the most outstanding talents of prestigious families.
"No." Lin Xin Tong. "With your strength, consuming the Savage Bone Relic would cause your body to explode and you to die. The one in your hand is Ferocious Beast Relic that I refined myself. In fact, the scions of large Lineage, who claim to cultivate by consuming Savage Bone Relic, mostly consume Ferocious Beast Relic, which is the one in your hand!"
"Ferocious Beast Relic..." Yi Yun was taken aback, then suddenly realized that the number of ferocious beasts was thousands or even tens of thousands of times greater than that of wild beasts. In the entire Yunhuang, outside the territory of the human race, there were ferocious beasts everywhere.
These ferocious beasts possess the ability to absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi. They grow by relying on this Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi and are extremely powerful.
Killing these ferocious beasts also allows one to refine relics from them. Of course, so many Ferocious Beast Relic were consumed by various powerful Lineage.
However, Lin Xin Tong's statement that she had crafted the Ferocious Beast Relic herself stirred something in Yi Yun's heart. He hadn't expected that this young girl was a Savage Heaven Master, or at least a Quasi -Savage Heaven Master.
It's true what they say, comparisons are odious. Not only is she of noble birth and incredibly powerful, but she's also Savage Heaven Master. To achieve such a feat at such a young age, how can anyone else possibly compete?
"Now that you've reached the Qi Induction Realm, I'll raise my Body Refinement Power by one level, which means I'll suppress it to the Mortal Blood Fourth Layer to fight you. I'll still use the 'Dragon Marrow Tiger Bones Fist,' so you'd better be careful. In our last battle, I wasn't serious, and for some reason, I was distracted during the fight. But this time, I won't."
Lin Xin Tong's voice was calm. The last time she was distracted during the battle, it was naturally due to the changes in her internal meridians.
When her meridians malfunctioned, Lin Xin Tong was using the "Dragon Marrow Tiger Bones Fist" to fight Yi Yun, so this time, Lin Xin Tong will still use the "Dragon Marrow Tiger Bones Fist".
"Thank you for the reminder, Miss Lin. I will be careful." Yi Yun played with the Ferocious Beast Relic in his hand, feeling that the relic was emitting an enticing fragrance, as if it were the most delicious food.
Under the moonlight, the relic appeared reddish and translucent, like a red crystal.
It's truly a work of art. Lin Xin Tong's ability to create such a beautiful Ferocious Beast Relic is truly enviable.
But no matter how beautiful it is, it has to be eaten; Yi Yun is starving.
He popped the Ferocious Beast Relic into his mouth like he was eating a peanut.
This was the first time Yi Yun had ever eaten something so high-class. He discovered that the Ferocious Beast Relic was not as hard as a stone as he had originally thought; on the contrary, it was very elastic and could be crushed.
Yi Yun chewed the Ferocious Beast Relic to pieces, and a flavor similar to fine wine emanated from it, filling his mouth.
"Delicious! Really delicious! So this is what Ferocious Beast Relic taste like. If I ate this all the time, I'd probably get addicted! However, Ferocious Beast Relic can't replace gourmet food. It's a completely different experience from eating salt-baked chicken."
Eating delicious food is one kind of enjoyment, drinking fine wine is another, and smoking is yet another. It's difficult to compare the three; none can replace the others.
After swallowing the relic, it slowly transformed into a warm current that flowed throughout Yi Yun's body.
Yi Yun's previously empty stomach immediately felt full, and Yi Yun felt the heat coursing through his body, making him feel an urgent need to release it.
He really wants to fight a great, exhilarating battle right now!
Yi Yun looked at Lin Xin Tong with extreme excitement in his eyes.
Having eaten and drunk my fill, just looking to digest, I was suddenly offered a high-class sparring partner – how could I not be excited?
Although his cultivation has now reached the peak of the Qi Induction Realm, and his personal strength is beyond question, he still has a flaw: he has too little combat experience, even less than Lian Chengyu.
Lian Chengyu used to spar with Yao Yuan every day. Yao Yuan was once a Purple Blood Warrior who lived a life of constant danger, so the combat experience he taught Lian Chengyu was naturally extraordinary.
In contrast, Yi Yun doesn't understand fighting techniques or Martial Skill. He has only experienced two real battles. He has a perfect Body Refinement that has been refined to perfection, but his combat power will be greatly reduced.
Now, being able to spar with a master like Lin Xin Tong is a perfect opportunity to make up for my weaknesses.
Yi Yun was so excited that he couldn't help but wave at Lin Xin Tong, almost saying "Bring it on!"
However, Yi Yun soon realized that one should not be complacent, or one will regret it.
He had just waved when Lin Xin Tong disappeared from his sight.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Xin Tong appeared in front of Yi Yun as if she had teleported. Yi Yun only felt a blur before his eyes, and then he felt as if he had been hit in the chest by a sledgehammer.
"Boom!"
Lin Xin Tong struck Yi Yun in the chest with her palm. Yi Yun felt as if his bones had been deformed and his internal organs were churning. It hurt so much! This girl, who looked so gentle and weak, was actually a human tyrannosaurus!
"Boom!"
Yi Yun crashed heavily into a large tree, breaking it in two. He saw stars and struggled to his feet. Luckily, he had only eaten a Ferocious Beast Relic; otherwise, he would have vomited it all up.
At this moment, Lin Xin Tong did not look at Yi Yun, but looked at her own hands.
That mysterious feeling from the previous attack still hasn't appeared...
Is it really just an illusion...?
Lin Xin Tong was somewhat disappointed. She turned to look at Yi Yun and said calmly, "You were too careless. When a true warrior faces an enemy, his pupils contract to lock onto the enemy's every move. In the breath before I attacked you, although your eyes were on me, they weren't watching my whole body, but rather my face."
Yi Yun blushed when Lin Xin Tong came true; this girl had a sharp eye.
But even if you figure it out, don't say it out loud.
Yi Yun coughed lightly, adjusted his mindset, and stared intently at Lin Xin Tong's every move.
Yi Yun was indeed a bit careless just now, but his glance at Lin Xin Tong's face was just a subconscious action. He's not some seasoned warrior, and when fighting someone, it's impossible for him to immediately contract his pupils and lock onto the opponent's every move, just like Lin Xin Tong said.
Although Lin Xin Tong is beautiful, Yi Yun only met her by chance. He had some goodwill towards her, but not enough to develop any romantic feelings for her.
