Dorm Duo Survival: What Did You Do to the School Beauty?

The enormous body of the evil dragon plunged into the Xuan Yin Cold Pool, and the towering waves it stirred up gradually subsided. The dark pool water slowly returned to calm, leaving only faint traces of blackish-red blood seeping from the bottom of the pool, merging with the icy water, emanating a faint aura of ferocity, telling the story of the thrilling and deadly battle that had just taken place.

Lin Yuan landed on the frozen rock, his legs went slightly weak, the lightning around him completely dissipated, the golden dragon scales on his body and the dragon horn on his forehead slowly faded, and his face turned a little pale.

The fierce battle with the evil dragon had almost exhausted most of his divine lightning power. He wasn't actually injured, just a bit overwhelmed.

This shows that the evil dragon is indeed very powerful, capable of consuming even Lin Yuan's energy; it's truly no ordinary creature...

"Lin Yuan!" An Xin rushed over from behind, casually placing her sniper rifle aside, her face full of anxiety and concern.

She crouched down, reached out to support Lin Yuan's arm, and frowned as she looked at his pale face: "How are you? Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine, I just used up too much energy. That beast was really hard to deal with..." Lin Yuan caught his breath and managed to stand up.

"Don't move, let me help you heal!" An Xin felt a little sorry for him and without saying a word, she began to use her innate ability to help Lin Yuan recover.

Beams of green light emanated from Anxin's hand, instantly enveloping Lin Yuan's entire body, and the treatment began.

In no time, Lin Yuan felt himself recover. The exhaustion and fatigue in his body disappeared, and a warm, comforting power flowed through his body, healing him.

The paleness on his face disappeared, and his gaze turned to the blood coffin not far away: "Don't worry, I'm all better now. Don't worry about me. The seal on the blood coffin hasn't been fully reinforced yet. The evil dragon is dead, and the yin energy here is the purest. We can't waste this opportunity. We need to reinforce the seal as soon as possible so that we can set off in peace."

Anxin nodded, knowing the gravity of the situation. She helped Lin Yuan to the blood coffin, took the sniper rifle in her hand, and cautiously scanned the surroundings to prevent any other evil creatures from taking the opportunity to attack.

Lin Yuan walked to the compass, took a deep breath, and began to perform hand seals.

The ancient compass lit up with a dark light, and the Yin energy in the pool seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, transforming into a thick black band that continuously flowed into the crimson blood coffin.

The crimson aura of the blood coffin grew stronger and stronger. The coffin body, which had been slightly fluctuating, gradually stabilized. The restless aura of the blood zombie inside the coffin completely subsided, and the sealing patterns slowly emerged on the surface of the coffin body, becoming clearer and more solid.

Lin Yuan closed his eyes and devoted himself to guiding the Yin energy and reinforcing the seal. His aura gradually stabilized, and the divine thunder power within his body began to recover.

An Xin stood guard to the side, his sharp eyes fixed on the surface of the cold pool and the surrounding mountains and forests, his hand tightly gripping the sniper rifle, ready to detect and respond to any unusual activity immediately.

The area around the Xuan Yin Cold Pool returned to complete silence, with only the faint sound of the compass turning and the weak hum of Yin energy flowing into the blood coffin remaining.

The pool remained dark and calm, as if the earth-shattering battle had never happened. Only the ice shards, pebbles, and the bloodstains of the evil dragon on the ground proved that a life-or-death struggle had taken place here.

Time passed slowly, and about half an hour later, Lin Yuan slowly opened his eyes, stopped making hand seals, the light of the compass gradually dimmed, and the yin energy in the center of the pool also stopped surging.

He let out a long sigh of relief, a look of satisfaction on his face: "Alright, the seal is completely reinforced. The blood zombies won't be agitated for a while, so we can continue our journey with peace of mind."

Hearing this, An Xin felt relieved and turned to look at the blood coffin. The crimson coffin body radiated a warm and heavy halo, and the sealing patterns were clearly visible, steadily suppressing the blood zombie inside.

"Great, we're finally done." She said with a smile, then turned to Lin Yuan, "How are you feeling now? Do you want to rest a little longer?"

"No need, we shouldn't stay any longer."

Lin Yuan shook his head. He didn't plan to stay here any longer. "This cold pool is too strange. The battle just now was too loud and might attract other people with ill intentions. Besides, we don't know if the evil dragon has any companions. It's safest to leave here as soon as possible."

As he spoke, Lin Yuan walked to the carriage and checked the paper horse and the zombie team. He confirmed that the paper horse had calmed down and the zombie team was under control, without any disturbance.

After the two finished tidying up, Lin Yuan urged the paper horse on, while An Xin shook the corpse-controlling bell, leading the zombie team slowly away from the Xuan Yin Cold Pool and heading towards the mountain path ahead.

The paper horse trampled the ice chips on the ground, the wheels rolled over the muddy road, and the stiff throbbing of the zombie was particularly clear in the silent night, gradually fading away and disappearing into the depths of the mountains and forests.

However, what they didn't know was that at the very moment the evil dragon's enormous body plunged into the icy pool and died, a storm was quietly brewing in a magnificent Taoist temple a thousand miles away.

This Taoist temple, named "Xuanzhen Temple," is located atop a range of mountains. Built against the mountain, with its blue bricks and gray tiles, upturned eaves, and imposing presence, it exudes a rich Taoist spiritual energy, yet it also carries a hint of sinister energy, making it appear particularly eerie.

In a secluded chamber deep within the Taoist temple, the light was dim, with only an oil lamp casting a faint glow that illuminated a figure in the center of the chamber.

This was a middle-aged Taoist priest, dressed in a blue Taoist robe embroidered with Bagua symbols. He had a thin face, deep eyes, and a calm yet powerful aura. He was clearly a highly accomplished Taoist master who had cultivated for many years.

He sat upright on a peach wood cushion, his eyes closed, his hands resting on his knees, meditating and regulating his breathing. The Taoist spiritual energy around him flowed slowly, nourishing his cultivation.

At his waist hung a pure white jade pendant shaped like a dragon. The pendant was exquisitely carved and lifelike. The dragon's form was exactly the same as the evil dragon in the Xuan Yin Cold Pool. The surface of the pendant was surrounded by a faint spiritual light, which resonated with the Taoist's aura. It was clearly a very special magical artifact.

Suddenly, a crisp "snap" broke the silence of the secret room.

Without warning, a thin crack appeared on the dragon-shaped jade pendant hanging at the Taoist's waist. The crack then spread rapidly, and within a few breaths, the entire pendant shattered completely. Tiny jade pieces fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and the spiritual light surrounding the pendant vanished instantly.

The Taoist priest, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them. The calmness in his eyes was instantly replaced by rage. His originally deep eyes turned blood red, and his aura suddenly surged. Taoist spiritual energy and evil energy intertwined to form a terrifying aura, causing the oil lamp in the secret room to shake violently, its light flickering.
