"You are currently at level 37 Soul Power. After absorbing this piece of Soul Bone, you will probably be able to reach level 39 or even higher!"
"Let's go!"
After saying that, Lin Ye took Zhu Zhuqing's hand, looked around, and walked towards a hidden cave not far away.
Being pulled by him, Zhu Zhuqing lowered his head and glanced at the hands held by the two of them, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly.
This big bad guy.
So good.
Death Grand Canyon, the environment is dangerous and shrouded in miasma all year round.
The two soon found a hidden cave covered by huge vines under a cliff.
The inside of the cave is not big, but it is dry and enough for two people to rest.
Lin Ye used Soul Power to clean up the vines and gravel at the entrance of the cave, and then said to Zhu Zhuqing:
"Okay, Big Cat, you can absorb it here, I will protect you."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded, glanced at Lin Ye's face that was slightly pale due to the exhaustion of Soul Power, and said with some worry:
"You... your Soul Power hasn't recovered yet, do you want to take a rest first?"
"It's okay. I'm in good health and can handle it." Lin Ye waved his hand to reassure her.
"It's no problem to deal with a few blind little miscellaneous fish. You start quickly, don't delay."
Zhu Zhuqing knew Lin Ye's temper and saw that he persisted, so he said no more.
She took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged, and placed the dark red piece of Head Soul Bone in front of her.
The Soul Power in her body was running slowly, guiding the energy in Soul Bone to flow into her body.
Buzz!
Dark red light instantly enveloped Zhu Zhuqing's body, and a wave of energy began to pour into her body crazily.
Zhu Zhuqing's brows furrowed and sweat slid down his forehead.
The energy contained in the 40,000-year-old Soul Bone is extremely huge, and the absorption process is somewhat painful.
But compared to a month ago, her body was no longer the same.
The strengthening effect of Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone on the meridians, and the tempering of the body by Death Grand Canyon's month of life and death experience all came into play at this moment.
Lin Ye sat aside, ostensibly closing her eyes to rest and recover Soul Power. In fact, Spiritual Power had been shrouding Zhu Zhuqing, paying close attention to the energy movement in her body.
Everything is fine.
Time passed by minute by minute.
One hour.
Two hours.
Three hours.
Buzz--!
A wave of Spiritual Power exploded from Zhu Zhuqing's body, creating a strong wind in the cave.
Zhu Zhuqing slowly opened his eyes,
Those purple eyes were brighter than before.
The dark red light completely dissipated, and Soul Bone had perfectly integrated with her.
She succeeded!
Zhu Zhuqing felt the unprecedented surging power in his body, and his whole body fell into a huge shock!
Soul Power...
Her Soul Power actually upgraded two levels in a row after absorbing this piece of Soul Bone!
Directly from level thirty-seven to level thirty-nine!
It's only one step away from level 40 Soul Ancestor!
This is not over yet!
She could clearly feel that her Spiritual Power had also undergone earth-shaking qualitative changes due to the increase of this Head Soul Bone!
If Spiritual Power was a stream before, then now it is a surging river!
Its strength is probably comparable to that of Soul King, a master of more than fifty levels!
"I... became stronger..."
Zhu Zhuqing murmured to himself, his body trembling slightly with excitement.
She was finally one step closer to that man's back!
She calmed down her excitement, stood up slowly from the ground, and immediately cast her eyes on Lin Ye.
She wanted to be the first to tell him this good news.
However, when she saw Lin Ye's situation clearly, she couldn't help but be stunned.
I saw Lin Ye leaning against the rock wall, with his eyes closed and his breathing steady and long, as if he was asleep.
The afterglow of the setting sun passed through the gaps in the vines, casting a warm golden halo on his handsome and angular face.
Looking at his peaceful sleeping face, Zhu Zhuqing's heart softened for no reason.
Yes, in order to save himself, he rushed all the way from the Spirit Hall for three days and three nights to get here.
Immediately afterwards, he experienced a life-and-death battle, and Soul Power was exhausted, and he continued to protect himself for three hours.
He must be... very tired.
Zhu Zhuqing's steps relaxed uncontrollably.
She quietly walked up to Lin Ye, knelt down, and looked at him quietly.
From such a close distance, she could clearly see his long eyelashes, high bridge of nose, and tightly pursed lips.
She has seen this face countless times.
But every time I watch it, I still find it... very beautiful.
As he watched, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but smile.
But when she thought about how this guy always liked to tease her, calling herself "Big Cat" and always acting like a hooligan seriously, she couldn't help but feel a little angry.
She stretched out her finger as if she wanted to poke him in the face, but she put it down halfway.
In the end, she just puffed up her cheeks and muttered softly.
"Huh, what a big bad guy, a big pervert..."
However, as soon as she finished speaking...
A voice with a bit of joking laughter suddenly sounded in her ears.
"Who do you think is the big pervert?"
Zhu Zhuqing's body stiffened suddenly!
She raised her head in shock and faced a pair of black eyes with a narrow smile that had opened at some point.
The next second, before she had time to react, she felt dizzy.
Lin Ye's strong and powerful arms stretched out like lightning, one hand wrapped around her slender waist, and the other hand passed through the crook of her knee,
He picked her up from the ground and held her tightly in his arms!
"Ah!"
Zhu Zhuqing let out a short exclamation, and everyone was stunned.
By the time she reacted, she had already been imprisoned in Lin Ye's arms in an extremely ambiguous posture.
"Lin Ye! You... you pretended to be asleep! Damn it!"
Zhu Zhuqing's cheeks instantly turned red. She was ashamed and angry, and struggled in his arms.
I just... secretly looked at him and scolded him... but he heard it all?!
What a shame!
"Hey, if I don't pretend to be asleep, how can I hear the true words of our Big Cat?"
Lin Ye smiled evilly and tightened her arms, making it impossible for her to break free.
He looked down at the shy and angry girl in his arms, deliberately leaned into her ear, and lowered his voice and said:
"Okay, you Big Cat, you are quite courageous."
"I have good intentions and came all the way from the Spirit Hall to save you, give you Soul Bone, and protect you. I'm so tired that I almost collapsed."
"But what about you? Not only are you not grateful to me, you secretly call me a big bad guy and a big pervert behind my back?"
The warm breath blew on Zhu Zhuqing's sensitive earlobes, making her body feel soft involuntarily.
"I... I didn't!"
Zhu Zhuqing was shy and anxious, and retorted harshly.
"Still saying no? I heard it just now." Lin Ye raised his eyebrows.
