"His reaction was really quick; no wonder he's Great Demon!" Ling Yi frowned as he looked at the lake.
A willow tree spirit, a two-tailed white fox, and now a Fifth Tier Great Demon of unknown origin has arrived.
"That was fucking exciting!"
"I'm certain now, my system definitely has some strange and unusual settings hidden inside."
Ling Yi had been safe and sound for ten years after his transmigration, but something went wrong the moment he activated the system? No matter how you look at it, something just doesn't feel right.
However, Ling Yi was quite satisfied with today's harvest.
"It seems that the stronger the target, the more life energy it absorbs. Tonight's harvest is more than ten times that of the previous half month."
"Let's go, let's go back to sleep!"
After Ling Yi left, Daodao spread across the lake.
A woman dressed in a long blue dress slowly rose from the lake.
The woman had long, silky hair, cool and aloof features, a charming and beautiful face, and a Linglong figure.
"You damned brat, you're the Great Demon, your whole family are Great Demon!" The woman looked in the direction Ling Yi had left, her face full of anger.
"It can actually devour the Life Origin of others; what a bizarre method."
The woman touched her chest. "I've lost at least 60% of my Life Origin. It's truly awful. It will probably take at least six months to replenish it."
"Damn it, I was almost at the Spirit Transformation Realm, but now I'll have to wait another six months. I hope that old bastard from the Cold Nether Sect didn't break through ahead of schedule."
"A handyman disciple? I wonder if he has some kind of fortuitous encounter or has a different background."
The woman glanced warily in the direction Ling Yi had disappeared in before sinking into the lake and vanishing once more.
Ling Yi was currently heading towards the alchemy furnace.
The token at his waist beeped incessantly, like a death knell.
Since Qin Yuran stopped appearing, no one has come to the alchemy room to refine pills at night anymore.
And the timing is so urgent, it's highly likely that Qin Yuran returned.
Sure enough, when Ling Yi arrived at the alchemy room, he saw Qin Yuran, still wearing her bright red robe, leaning against the door of alchemy room number 36.
Ling Yi's Ying Yi, and he appeared beside Qin Yuran.
Seeing Qin Yuran's state, Ling Yi couldn't help but gasp.
Goodness, Qin Yuran a really bad situation!
His body was riddled with more than a dozen bloody holes, from which blood was Kuku out.
The two wounds, one next to the heart and the other on the neck, were the most gruesome and terrifying.
Large patches of skin were torn off his neck, and there was a huge hole in his chest.
This wound was just a tiny bit away from my heart.
If it were just a little bit off, Qin Yuran have lost her heart.
"Help, I... I have something in my storage ring...!" Qin Yuran sensed Ling Yi's Aura, regained some consciousness, and spoke haltingly.
He fainted before he could finish speaking.
But Ling Yi was somewhat conflicted at this moment.
To save her or not? This woman is no good!
After a moment's hesitation, Ling Yi decided to save them!
There are three reasons.
First, Qin Yuran is currently the only person who can help Ling Yi embark on the path of cultivation.
Ling Yi needs to become a cultivator and improve his cultivation level in order to activate more functions of the system.
Cultivation requires techniques and resources.
And Qin Yuran just happens to be able to help him.
Secondly, Ling Yi now possesses a certain level of self-defense capability. Although Ling Yi cannot determine exactly how strong he is, he should have little problem dealing with Qin Yuran.
A surge in physical attributes, resulting in comprehensive enhancements and upgrades.
Speed, strength, reaction time, Perception of crisis, five senses and six consciousnesses, thinking, enlightenment, Self-Healing, defense, and so on, are all constantly being improved.
It was precisely these Changes that gave Ling Yi a strong sense of confidence.
Third, Qin Yuran's identity!
Although Qin Yuran has a notorious reputation, she is an elder of Pill Peak, and the only elder who can refine Foundation Establishment Pill. She is also Qin Hao's only daughter.
Qin Hao holds a very high position in Pill Peak, and even in the Mystic Heaven Sect.
Even the sect leader had to show deference to Elder Qin.
With his numerous connections and backgrounds, Ling Yi could easily use Qin Yuran to seek even more benefits.
Thinking of this, Ling Yi picked up Qin Yuran and his body transformed into a bolt of Lightning, disappearing from sight.
A few minutes later, they appeared deep in the Forest Valley.
Activate the Life Devouring Entry and simultaneously lock onto twenty old pine trees in the vicinity.
Instantly, Daodao of green, silky light Flying over Trees and, guided by Ling Yi's will, flowed into Qin Yuran's body.
Ten seconds later, it was visible to the naked eye that Qin Yuran's injuries began to heal rapidly.
In less than half a minute, Qin Yuran's injuries had completely healed.
The price to pay was that the branches and leaves of these twenty old pine trees withered somewhat.
"Cough cough!" Qin Yuran coughed twice and stood up from the ground.
However, the first thing he did after getting up was to slap Ling Yi.
Ling Yi grabbed Qin Yuran's wrist and Fire Dao, "Are you fucking crazy? Laozi saved you, and this is how you repay Laozi?"
"If you hadn't schemed against me, how could I have almost died?" Qin Yuran tried to pull her arm back.
However, they discovered that Ling Yi's power was extremely terrifying.
Even using Spiritual Power, it couldn't be shaken in the slightest.
"You're blaming me for this? Did I send you there? It was clearly your greed that led you to seek the secret realm on your own, which is why you were injured by the willow tree spirit!"
Why didn't you tell me that it was a Fourth Tier Great Demon?
Are we friends?
"You, a Xiaoxiao lowly ant, dare to be my friend?" Qin Yuran Taunt.
"Since we're not friends, why should I tell you? I'd rather you die at the hands of the willow tree spirit."
"No, to be precise, if Laozi hadn't saved you, you would be dead."
Seeing that Qin Yuran about to say something, Ling Yi immediately released her arm.
He spoke first, "Enough with the nonsense, I'm asking you now, is the deal still valid?"
"That secret realm doesn't exist at all!" Qin Yuran said.
"Fine, no deal then!" Ling Yi said dismissively.
"Do you believe I'll kill you right now!" Qin Yuran tapped her chest, and the familiar Flying Sword reappeared.
It landed right on Ling Yi's forehead again.
"Damn it, I hate it when people point a sword at my head."
Once or twice, but not a third or fourth time.
Ling Yi reached out and grabbed the Flying Sword.
Then, to Qin Yuran's astonishment, he crushed the Flying Sword with a little force.
It's not just breaking it, it's crushing it completely.
The spot where Ling Yi had grasped shattered into pieces.
The Flying Sword was damaged, losing its spiritual essence, and fell directly to the ground.
"Wow, is it this crispy?"
Ling Yi felt as if he had crushed a piece of rotten wood, rather than a sword.
Flying Sword are certainly not made of rotten wood.
so...
"Have I become this strong now?" Ling Yi looked at his perfectly intact hand.
"How did you do that?" Qin Yuran asked instinctively.
"Shouldn't you be thinking about your own safety now?"
"What, you dare to kill me?" Qin Yuran took two steps back.
Ling Yi waved his hand. "If I wanted to kill you, you would have died eight hundred times over."
"I..."
"Don't say anything. Let's Hao Liao our deal now."
"That secret realm is fake..."
"I need cultivation techniques and resources; I want to cultivate immortality," Ling Yi interrupted Qin Yuran again.
"If I can become a cultivator within a year, I will tell you how to enter the secret realm."
"What if you're lying to me?" Qin Yuran asked after looking at the damaged Flying Sword at her feet.
"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do!" Ling Yi shrugged.
"Aren't you afraid I'll report this to the sect?"
"So what if we risk our lives? Who knows what the outcome will be? Besides, would you tell the sect?"
"No!" Qin Yuran shook her head without the slightest hesitation.
