The two girls brought a little surprise when they came up.
I saw Xiaocha unfolding a red flag with a golden word "righteousness" embroidered on it.
"When we were cleaning up the battlefield, we found this Yihequan hand amidst the scattered flowers!"
"The Yihequan?"
Lu Li took it and saw that the flag was actually a "sacrificial vessel" that had been refined by the wishes and power of countless people.
The Yihequan Divine Continent is mentioned in history textbooks; it thwarted the arrogant plans of the foreign powers to carve up China.
Xiao Cha added, "That pile of bones should also be the remains of Boxers; let them rest in peace."
Upon hearing this, Lu Li suddenly realized, "No wonder Fan Chengxun's skeletal giant hand healed so quickly!"
The bones of the Boxers are related to this flag, which can enhance the power of related spells.
"You have done well; the Righteous Warrior deserves to be laid to rest. As for this flag..."
"It would be good if we could return it to President Nan when we have the chance; he also participated in the Yihequan."
"Yes, that's fine."
Lu Li returned the flag to Xiao Cha Xiao Cha, who rolled it up and put it away.
It was just a minor incident, and it passed quickly.
At this moment, Lu Li noticed that the two girls looked quite disheveled.
Wan Qing was alright, but she looked exhausted, and her hair was matted and stuck to her forehead with sweat.
Xiao Cha's armor had many corroded pits, caused by the strong acid inside the demon infant's body.
Lu Li disregarded the Spiritual Vein and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, "Are you alright?"
"It's okay, the nail isn't even broken."
Xiao Cha took off her helmet, revealing two cute little tiger teeth when she smiled:
"Thanks to Wan Qing's flying sword and that bronze mirror, it was just a close call."
She made it sound so easy, but Lu Li could already sense that three of the puppets in the firing position were dead!
You should know that puppets are incredibly resilient; they can only be killed by completely destroying them.
Just then, Wan Qing spoke up:
"Thanks to the puppet that risked its life to protect us, we were both unharmed, but three of them were dissolved by the strong acid."
The heads and torsos of Nos. 7, 8, and 9 have been extensively corroded and melted away, and have completely lost their function.
But that's precisely the point of creating puppets—to create fearless, steel warriors!
"Casualties are inevitable in war; it's good that you're all safe."
Lu Li breathed a slight sigh of relief, then looked at the Spiritual Spring Hall and said, "Let's go see the legendary Spiritual Vein!"
"Spirit, Spiritual Vein ..."
Xiao Cha stared blankly at the magnificent palace, somewhat lost in thought.
"Has the Jiu Shan Sect been wiped out by us? We've only just finished the Marrow Cleansing..."
The girl felt that the scene before her was somewhat surreal.
Last year, I was just a lowly patrolman, a nobody.
At this point, they had already become involved in the major event of destroying the sect!
"This might alarm the Emperor..."
Xiao Cha instinctively grabbed Lu Li's arm, and they walked together into the palace.
Wan Qing held onto the other side, feeling both anxious and expectant.
After walking only a few steps into the palace, the Kunlun Mirror began to stir, emitting a strong sense of longing towards the very center of the palace!
Lu Li led the two girls quickly toward that place, and upon arriving, he was surprised to find that it was an open-air courtyard.
Judging from this layout, "Spiritual Spring Hall" is simply a wall specifically designed to protect this courtyard.
The courtyard was empty except for a stone platform and a jujube tree about the size of a bowl growing next to it.
Only two fruits were growing on the jujube tree.
They were as clear and translucent as rubies, and were the two "spiritual dates" that Lu Li had eaten before!
Spiritual creatures only grow in places abundant with spiritual energy, as evidenced by the nearby stone platform.
"Spiritual Vein!"
The three of them quickly went over, and as soon as they got close, they were enveloped by a light and clear fluctuation.
It felt like I had suddenly stepped into a forest after a rain shower, and I felt completely refreshed.
The source of the wonder lies in the stone platform before us.
This is actually a rock connected to the ground, with a depression in the middle, forming a natural "washbasin"-like structure.
One of the pools is a clear spring, its surface occasionally shimmering with light, emitting an extremely alluring aroma.
"This is... a spring formed from spiritual energy!"
With a gulp, the three of them subconsciously swallowed.
Even the six flying swords couldn't resist and flew out of the backpack.
But without their owner's permission, they dared not act recklessly and could only frantically fly around the stone platform.
The Kunlun Mirror grew even more anxious, frantically transmitting a feeling of [hunger], like a stomach that hadn't eaten for three days.
This treasure was of utmost importance, so Lu Li didn't stand on ceremony and immediately lifted the restrictions.
The Kunlun Mirror quickly flew to the sky above the spiritual spring and gently sipped...
In just one second, the water level of the spiritual spring dropped by half!
"Good appetite! Stop for a second!"
Lu Li quickly called for a stop.
There was only enough spring water for one basin, and he and the two girls wanted to try some.
Kunlun Mirror was somewhat reluctant to stop, but since its master had spoken, it had no choice but to cease its activity.
Fortunately, it took quite a bit, so it quietly stayed there and began to refine it.
Lu Li then smiled and said, "I know it's good stuff without even saying anything, so come on, let's try it all~"
"Just being nearby has a powerful nourishing effect; it truly lives up to its reputation as Spiritual Vein!"
"The picture book says that spiritual energy is the essence of heaven and earth, and even immortals who have survived the tribulation of lightning need to use it."
Xiao Cha and Wan Qing's pretty faces flushed with excitement, unsure of how to enjoy themselves.
The family decided not to hide anything, so the three of them stuck their mouths out to the spring water, wanting to take a sip.
I stuck my whole head inside, but I didn't feel anything touching it.
"Illusory?"
The three were greatly surprised, and when they reached out to grab it, they found nothing.
The spring water before them seemed like a mirage, but since Kunlun Mirror had just enjoyed it, it meant that it was a real thing.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Xiao Cha murmured:
"The three of us... are too lowly to have access to such divine objects."
Lu Li nodded, agreeing with her statement.
Just as an ordinary person can never experience Internal Breath, true energy, or that mysterious and profound power of will in their entire life.
The inspiration they were about to receive was something beyond their understanding and comprehension.
Originally, they were like monkeys trying to catch the moon's reflection, utterly helpless, and embarrassingly returned empty-handed from a mountain of treasures.
Fortunately, there's a magical item that can help!
The three of them looked at the Kunlun Mirror together, and for some reason, the mirror seemed rather aloof at that moment.
Lu Li said, "Feed me a bite."
The Kunlun Mirror immediately transformed into particle form and returned to the Sea of Consciousness. With a flash of light, it released a refreshing and soothing wave that spread throughout its owner's body.
"Hiss~ Oh~ Ah~"
The pleasant and comfortable feeling was irresistible, and Lu Li subconsciously called out, while simultaneously activating his Internal Vision to carefully observe.
A mysterious energy flowed into his entire body.
It's not just about nourishing the body; it instantly activates all the cells in the body, making every cell do what it's supposed to do.
Like a perfectly timed spring rain, or a timely snowfall, it brings favorable weather and abundant harvests.
Let your body radiate vitality like a grassland, rainforest, or ocean! Build a perfect ecosystem!
Awakening bodily functions and allowing all the cells in the body to spontaneously reach their optimal state—that's... nature!
Under this influence, Lu Li's foundation became unstable due to his rapid breakthrough, and many hidden injuries were quickly and spontaneously repaired!
In comparison, the nourishing effect of the powerful energy contained in the inspiration has to be ranked in a secondary position.
His body was like a dilapidated house being renovated inside and out. Lu Li felt his qi and blood instantly become 10% stronger, and couldn't help but marvel:
"Ingenuity is indeed a divine thing! Its key lies in the word 'adjustment,' just as a favorable weather condition ensures national prosperity and peace!"
Xiao Cha and Wan Qing looked on with a mixture of bewilderment and anticipation.
Lu Li leaned forward and started with Xiao Cha, their lips touching.
The Kunlun Mirror cannot enter their Sea of Consciousness; it can only act as a medium to infuse them with "spiritual energy."
