Seeing this, the old demon and his entourage behind him also stepped forward and followed closely.
A Soul Palace guardian first secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves relaxed a little. But then he raised his eyes to look at the leading Heavenly Guardian, frowned slightly, and said in a confused tone:
"It seems that the two venerables have brought some other people with them. Shouldn't we ask them? After all, this Soul-Falling Valley has always been secretive, and we can't let outsiders in casually."
"Are you an idiot? Why are you so stupid?" The Soul Palace guardian suddenly lost his good expression and glared at the person who spoke, his eyes full of disgust and impatience.
However, he quickly restrained his expression, put on a serious look, and said in a serious tone:
"I couldn't even sense the auras of those people before. They must be Dou Zun level masters. If that's the case, we can't afford to offend them. Besides, since they were brought back by the two masters, Qinghai Zun and Qin Tian Zun, we don't need to ask too much. We should just do our own thing and don't ask for trouble. If we get into trouble, it will be bad."
"Dou Zun is a strong man?"
Hearing what the Soul Palace Heavenly Master said, the other Soul Palace guardians were all shocked. Their faces were instantly filled with shock, their eyes widened, and their mouths unconsciously opened slightly.
They had never imagined that the people brought back by the two venerables were all so powerful. When they thought of the pressure emanating from those strong men, everyone's hearts began to beat fast, fearing that if they had acted rashly just now, the consequences would be disastrous.
"There are at least 16 or 17 people in this group, and they are all Dou Zun masters. But I seem to have never heard of their origins."
A Soul Palace guardian could hardly hide the confusion in his heart. He could not help but frown and speak, his words full of curiosity and confusion.
"Never mind. Anyway, it shouldn't be a bad thing for us. Not only have the two venerables returned, but judging from the appearance of those others, they are most likely friends rather than enemies. Besides, even if they are Dou Zun masters, they can't shake the majesty of our Soul Palace."
Tianji Protector said this nonchalantly, then waved his hand and said loudly:
"Let's go. Now that we are all out, let's go out and collect some souls. This quarter's tasks have been assigned, and it will be time to submit them to the main hall soon. We must not make any mistakes, otherwise we will be in trouble."
After saying this, he took off first. After hearing this, the other Soul Palace guardians quickly gathered their thoughts and followed him out of the valley...
Chapter 503 Extraction
The night sky is like a huge piece of black silk, gently spread between the sky and the earth. The stars are inlaid on it like bright gems, flashing a mysterious and charming glow.
The moonlight was like water, pouring into the courtyard, dyeing the scattered pavilions, flowers, plants and trees with a layer of silver halo, as if covering the entire courtyard with a dreamy gauze.
The forest garden on one side of the courtyard is quiet and peaceful. The breeze blows gently, and the leaves rustle, as if whispering the story of the night. Walking along the winding path, you can see the courtyard on the Linyue Peak, which is shrouded in moonlight and exudes a unique tranquility.
Inside the master bedroom, the candlelight flickered and the room was filled with heat, which made the black plum blossoms on the green bamboo curtains turn three shades of watery red.
A few strands of moonlight, as gleaming as fragments of jade, leaked in through the carved window lattices and happened to fall on the half-hanging tassels of the silk curtain.
The dark blue brocade quilt that Little Medical Fairy was holding in her fingertips had been wrinkled into mountains. The jade hairpin that she had used to pin her hair had long since rolled away somewhere. Her three thousand strands of black hair spread out on the pillow, looking even purer than the bright moon hanging high outside the window.
"You, really, you don't even know how to give way to me." The little medical fairy's red-painted nails dug into the muscles of Xiao Ling's back.
The white jade-like palm stroked Xiao Ling's strong chest, as if confirming a treasure that had been lost and found again.
"How can I let you do this, Xian'er? Don't you know how much you attract me?"
Xiao Ling couldn't help but smile, shook his head helplessly, raised his hand and hooked up a strand of wet hair stuck to her neck:
"However, you were quite proactive this time. You were not this ferocious even when the evil poison attacked you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ling stepped forward again. As a partner of justice, he was determined to suppress this poisonous woman who was endangering the continent.
After a period of tenderness, the little medical fairy's face flushed, but her eyes were full of attachment and satisfaction. Fatigue gradually set in, and soon, she fell asleep in Xiao Ling's arms.
She curled up in Xiao Ling's arms, the red at the corners of her eyes had not yet faded, and there were still faint teeth marks on her lips.
Xiao Ling lifted up the corner of the mermaid pearl gauze quilt and glanced at the new light blue bruise on her waist.
Xiao Ling looked at the peaceful sleeping face of the beauty in his arms, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He gently pulled the quilt for her, his eyes full of doting. Then he stared at her quietly, as if he wanted to engrave this beautiful look into his heart, for fear of disturbing this rare quiet time.
After staring for a while, Xiao Ling withdrew his mind and leaned back on the couch at the head of the bed.
At this moment, his body and mind were empty, and he felt a little dazed for a moment, as if all his thoughts had drifted away with the tenderness just now, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
He looked up at the watery moonlight outside the window, and his thoughts began to drift away slowly. He recalled the many complicated things he had experienced in Shengdan City before, and then looked at the little medical fairy sleeping peacefully beside him. His heart was filled with warmth, and he only wished that this quiet time could stay a little longer.
"Oh, right, I got two more chances to draw a lottery after my previous breakthrough, but I haven't used them yet. Now that I have some free time, I might as well use them right away."
Xiao Ling thought so and quickly withdrew his thoughts. Suddenly this matter popped up in his mind and he immediately became interested.
There was a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes, and he secretly wondered what kind of surprises these two draws would bring him. The corners of his mouth rose slightly unconsciously, and he became a lot more energetic. He immediately prepared to start using those two draw opportunities.
Immediately, Xiao Ling gently closed his eyes and silently said in his heart: "System, use the two extraction opportunities after breaking through the Seven-Star Dou Zun."
[Beep, extracting opportunities for the host, please wait...]
[Ding... Congratulations to the host for drawing the Stone Mask. ]
[Ding... Congratulations to the host for extracting the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo Seedling. ]
As the results of the system extraction were revealed, detailed information about the two items drawn this time immediately appeared in Xiao Ling's mind.
Immediately, Xiao Ling slowly and gently closed his eyes, and silently said in his heart: "System, use the two extraction opportunities after breaking through the Seven-Star Dou Zun."
[Beep, extracting opportunities for the host, please wait...]
[Ding... Congratulations to the host for drawing the Soul-Nourishing Tree. ]
[Ding... Congratulations to the host for drawing the Stone Mask. ]
As the system's mechanical prompt sounded, the detailed information of the two items drawn this time immediately and clearly emerged in Xiao Ling's mind like a trickle of water.
[Stone Mask: After coming into contact with blood, the Stone Mask will eject several bone needles that will pierce the wearer's brain, stimulating the wearer's potential and turning the wearer into a vampire with superhuman strength and recovery abilities. At the same time, the wearer will also have a desire for blood and a fear of sunlight.]
[Soul-nourishing Wood: It can be worn on the body to nourish the soul and spirit, slowly making the consciousness stronger, and it can also live in the soul to ensure that the mind does not dissipate. ]
After understanding the information in his mind one by one, Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment, and was unable to react. After a moment, he slowly came back to his senses, but his expression became a little strange.
"I can understand the use of this soul-nourishing tree, but what use can this stone ghost mask have?"
Xiao Ling chuckled helplessly, raised his hand and gently rubbed his eyebrows, his tone full of weirdness, and he muttered to himself.
As one of the three famous sacred trees in "A Mortal's Journey to Immortality", Xiao Ling naturally knew about the soul-nourishing tree's extraordinary qualities and had known about it for a long time.
The effect of this soul-nourishing wood is truly remarkable. Relying on its own unique spiritual properties, whether it is nourishing one's own soul, making it more resilient and powerful, or assisting in the practice of various soul-related techniques, it can play a great role in the path of practice. It can be said to be a rare and precious thing.
Relying on the characteristics of the soul-nourishing wood, it is entirely possible to use it to make some accessories and wear them on the body year after year. Even if the nourishing effect each time seems subtle, but accumulated over time, it will also have a significant nourishing effect on one's own soul power, making the soul more solid and stable. In terms of cultivation, this is undoubtedly a subtle but extremely effective aid.
Thinking back to when Yao Chen suffered a serious injury and fell into such a dangerous situation, Xiao Ling was sure that the situation would have been very different if he had been able to live in a soul-nourishing tree at that time.
The Soul-Nourishing Tree's ability to nourish the soul will surely allow Yao Chen's soul to be properly protected and repaired. There will be no need for him to sleep for a long time before slowly waking up like he did in the Bone Inflammation Ring.
In addition to these conventional uses, Xiao Ling thought about his current situation, and a light bulb went off in his mind. He seemed to have some different inspiration for this soul-nourishing tree, and figured out other ways to develop and use it.
As for the soul bodies collected in his Ten Thousand Souls Sail, in essence, although their forms have been changed by the Ten Thousand Souls Sail, their appearance on the outside is not too different from that of ordinary people, or more precisely, normal practitioners, at first glance.
But in fact, they are still made up of soul bodies after all, and essentially still have the unique characteristics of soul bodies, which is fundamentally different from real flesh-and-blood practitioners.
Xiao Ling himself had the Ten Thousand Souls Sail, which could hold those souls, so it would not be easily discovered by others. However, if he wanted to send some souls to help others and let them follow him like bodyguards, he would have to do it in secret, and the risk of being exposed would naturally increase greatly.
However, if Xiao Ling could carefully craft some soul-nourishing wood accessories, that would be a clever way.
You can let the sail slaves live in these ornaments made of soul-nourishing wood, and then the ornaments can be worn by other people.
In this way, it will be difficult for others to notice anything unusual, and the risk of being noticed by others can be greatly reduced.
After all, the soul-nourishing tree itself has the characteristics of concealing breath and nourishing the soul. Those sail slaves living in it are like being covered by a natural protective barrier, with excellent concealment.
The more Xiao Ling thought about it, the more he felt that this was a very feasible method. He had already begun planning in his mind how to go about making these accessories, preparing some for everyone around him, and leaving them some extra cards just in case.
As for the stone ghost mask, Xiao Ling really thought it was very novel, but for the moment he didn't have much to think about it.
After all, I have always been an honest person, my life has been going smoothly, and I have a bright future. I am not like Diosama, who abandoned the basic principles of being a human being and simply "stopped being a human being" in order to achieve his goals.
If there was a rare thing like the insect arrow that could awaken a substitute, Xiao Ling would definitely be very interested, and felt that there would be many wonderful uses waiting for him to discover. But as for this stone ghost mask, Xiao Ling just shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself, forget it.
Having already drawn a Stone Mask, Xiao Ling couldn't help but secretly fantasize in his heart, it would be great if he could get an object with the ability to stop time.
After all, the ability to pause time is really powerful. At critical moments, whether it is dealing with strong enemies or exploring some dangerous places, it can give you a huge advantage.
But on second thought, this thing called a substitute doesn't seem to be a real object, so it probably can't be pulled out.
I don't know if she noticed the movement on Xiao Ling's side, but the little medical fairy who was sleeping in his arms twisted her body slightly, and her slender eyelashes trembled gently a few times, as if she was about to wake up from her sleep. She mumbled a few words vaguely, but soon calmed down and was still immersed in her dream.
Xiao Ling instantly noticed this subtle change, and quickly came back to his senses, his eyes gently falling on the beautiful sleeping face of Xiao Yixian. Her face was lightly flushed, like a delicate flower blooming in spring, quiet and beautiful, and her slightly pouty lips made her look even more playful and cute.
Xiao Ling couldn't help but reveal a doting smile as he watched. He gently reached out and brushed a few strands of hair from Little Medical Fairy's forehead behind her ears, murmuring softly, "Don't think too much about it. Let's deal with it later. Now is the time to have a good rest..."
After saying that, Xiao Ling carefully adjusted to a more comfortable sleeping position, his movements gentle and slow, for fear of disturbing the little medical fairy in his arms.
Then, he pulled the person in his arms closer to him so that she could have a more comfortable posture.
After doing all this, Xiao Ling slowly closed his eyes. Soon, sleepiness came over him like a tide, and he gradually fell into sleep.
The only sound in the room was the even breathing of the two people, which intertwined into a peaceful and harmonious melody in the quiet night...
……
Inside the Xingyun Pavilion, there is a place called Zhaixingya. Above the misty top of the cliff, there is a vast sea of clouds all around, like a fairyland.
The mountain breeze blows gently, bringing up wisps of clouds and mist, lingering among the mountains, like a dream.
Xiao Ling was dressed in white, sitting cross-legged quietly in the open space on the top of the cliff, his clothes fluttering gently in the wind, giving him a sense of otherworldly charm.
In front of him, an extremely mysterious rune was floating slowly. The rune suspended in the void flickered, as if condensing the chaos when the world was first created in a small space.
The glimmer floating on the surface is not of ordinary gold and jade color, but rather it looks like the entire Milky Way was crushed and mixed into the morning dew.
A thin and subtle rhythm of Taoism rises from the edge of the rune, and each change of shape is accompanied by the emergence of a completely different and strange vision.
When it turns into thunder, purple lightning patterns burst out all over its body, and the shadow of a thunder pool is faintly visible among the dancing of thousands of golden snakes; when it turns into black ice, six-sided frost flowers bloom from the center; the moment it burns into flames, the scorching heat spreads out in all directions with it as the center, and the flames jump and roll as if to burn everything to ashes; the most bizarre thing is when the black hole appears, there is a faint powerful suction emanating from it, as if to swallow up everything around it, which makes people terrified.
The flowing clouds beside the Star-Picking Cliff suddenly condensed into a vortex, and seven figures, three men and four women, stood on the top of the solitary peak where strong winds were blowing.
The man in the lead had white hair fluttering in the wind and a faint smile on his face. It was naturally Yao Chen.
"Are you going to start practicing? It seems that Xiao Ling will soon become a talisman master. I will go and learn from her later to see what the talisman master's methods are like."
Zi Yan blinked her big eyes, her bright eyes full of curiosity and anticipation. She looked in Xiao Ling's direction without blinking and spoke crisply.
Upon hearing this, the little medical fairy and the others on the side couldn't help but smile, but they also felt a little bit of anticipation in their hearts.
Xiao Ling had already explained to them in detail everything about the Talisman Master, but Zi Yan and Medusa were both born as Warcraft after all, and although their soul powers were excellent under Xiao Ling's training, they were not very proficient.
You know, Warcraft focuses more on the physical body and has more involvement, and Zi Yan's body, the Taixu Ancient Dragon, and Medusa's body, the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, are both outstanding in this area, so for the talisman master's method that requires deep soul power support, the two of them did not think about participating.
On the contrary, Xiao Yixiang and Qinglin were quite interested after hearing about the wonders of the talisman master. They had secretly planned to study and practice the art of talisman master in the future.
Chapter 504: Condensing the Fate Talisman
"Although I failed to obtain the most advanced ancestral talisman, I have now prepared the most superior natal talisman, and I have almost comprehended the talisman master system. With my spiritual realm of great perfection, I should be able to achieve a lot of results in the path of talisman master."
