Chapter 247 The Divine Descendant Abandoned Her
Chapter 247 The Divine Descendant Abandoned Her
After greeting the others, Lin Chengtian left.
Once he left, only Ye Qingshuang, Bai Jiu, Ji Changrong, Xiao Jinhu, and those few petal-shaped people remained in the underwater cave.
“Xiao Ze, I’m a little worried…” one of the petal-shaped people whispered to Lin Xinze, “I’m worried that those demons will go to the Forest of Bonds.”
Lin Xinze wanted to say no, but then he thought that if the little bird's flame went out and the demons discovered that the little bird was missing, they might go to the Forest of Fate to Find Love.
Ye Qingshuang overheard their conversation: "If you're worried, I'll go check out the Forest of Bonds."
Upon hearing this, the little flower petals were immediately shocked: "Really?"
"Okay." Ye Qingshuang replied, "But I can't take you back. You'll have to stay here with Xiaoze."
"Okay," the little flower petals responded.
Ye Qingshuang looked at Baijiu and Ji Changrong: "I'll be leaving for a while."
Baijiu nodded: "Be careful."
Bai Qingjue chuckled lightly, "You guys are really something..."
If Ling Yi knew that everyone would leave after she left, why would she still come to the underwater cave?
Ye Qingshuang didn't say much. After saying goodbye to them, she left the underwater cave.
...
After leaving the underwater cave, since there were no shadows around, Ling Yi led Ji Yanzhi to a more distant place, finally stopping at a deserted mountaintop.
After stopping, Ling Yi found a place to put Ji Yanzhi down: "Do you have any defensive magic artifacts?"
Ji Yanzhi nodded: "Yes."
Ling Yi stopped asking questions, took a few steps forward, chose a place to stop and set up the formation. After the formation was completed, Ling Yi cut his hand to draw blood and sprinkled the blood on the formation. As the formation operated, the smell of the blood drifted into the distance.
Ling Yi used a healing spell to heal his wounds briefly, then sat down in the formation and waited for the shadows to arrive.
"Boom!"
A sudden clap of thunder and gathering dark clouds made the sky above the divine kingdom, already shrouded in black mist, even darker.
As thunder continued to rumble, Ji Yanzhi took out a defensive magic artifact and placed it beside him. A small barrier was generated, enveloping him within it.
"call"
Just as the barrier was formed, a dark shadow swiftly attacked and broke into the formation.
Ji Yanzhi glanced to the side and saw wisps of black mist emerging from Ling Yixin's chest, wrapping around the shadow, twisting it into black mist, and drawing it into his body.
At the beginning of the devouring, Ling Yi's speed was not fast, even a little slow, but no matter how slow she was, she truly devoured the shadow.
Ji Yanzhi watched, his hand at his side tightening slightly, then relaxing after a while.
He should believe her; that kind of thing won't happen again.
One shadow, two shadows... As time passed, Ling Yi absorbed more and more shadows, and his cultivation began to increase.
Spirit Saint Level 5, Level 6, Level 7...
At first, his cultivation level increased very quickly, but as he absorbed more and more shadows, the speed of his cultivation slowed down, as if the power had suddenly decreased.
Ji Yanzhi had been paying close attention to Ling Yi and knew that the power brought by the shadow had not diminished, but had simply been stored elsewhere by Ling Yi. Ji Yanzhi's gaze fell on Ling Yi's chest.
There is a seal there.
...
Lin Chengtian left the underwater cave and headed towards the central perimeter. After walking for a short while, he encountered a shadow.
The shadow spotted Lin Chengtian and immediately attacked him, but in the instant it got close, it was tightly bound by the black mist emanating from Lin Chengtian's body. The next moment, the black mist emanating from Lin Chengtian's body formed a huge mouth and swallowed the shadow.
Lin Chengtian stood still and asked, "How is it?"
"Not enough..." a voice echoed in his mind: "More is needed."
"Alright." Lin Chengtian didn't say anything more and continued walking forward. His cultivation level was not high, so if he walked outside like this, once he encountered a shadow, the shadow would definitely attack. At that time, he could let 'her' eat those shadows to recover the power he had recently consumed.
Lin Chengtian refused to let Ye Qingshuang join him because he wanted 'her' to devour the shadow.
Just as Lin Chengtian was walking forward, the voice in his mind rang out again: "These shadows can also help you cultivate."
Lin Chengtian said, "I can't swallow it."
The voice said, "Once I have devoured enough shadows, I will transfer the power they have transformed into to you, but you will have to endure inhuman pain. Are you willing?"
"Anything is acceptable as long as it increases my cultivation level." After arriving in the Sea God Kingdom and meeting more people, Lin Chengtian felt increasingly insignificant, and he wanted to become stronger.
Unfortunately, he wasn't some kind of genius, and his cultivation speed was very slow. Even when he used demonic energy to cultivate, he was only a little faster than before, and his cultivation speed was nothing compared to Ling Yi's.
Too slow, too weak. In this situation, he will not only be unable to protect the people he wants to protect, but will also become a burden.
Lin Chengtian said, "Pain is nothing, but can I use this black mist to cultivate?"
"Do you want to?" the voice said. "If you want, I can help you draw that black mist into your body, but... the black mist will affect you, and you may lose control. If you lose control and cannot suppress it, you will lose even more."
In fact, if it were only Lin Chengtian, even if he were affected, it would only amplify the dark side of his heart, and would not get out of control to an uncontrollable degree. But he has 'Ling Yi' in his body.
If he absorbs too much, it will cause the events of the first realm to happen again. This time, Ling Yi is not here. If he waits until Ling Yi loses control and then suppresses himself, then Lin Chengtian will become a cripple.
Ling Yi didn't want his host body to become a cripple, which is why he specifically mentioned that "losing control and being unable to suppress it will result in even greater losses," all to dissuade Lin Chengtian from using the black mist for cultivation.
Sure enough, after hearing what Ling Yi said, Lin Chengtian said, "Then forget it."
“Okay.” Ling Yi said, “I will transfer my power to you.”
Lin Chengtian didn't say anything more. He walked a little further and found many shadows attacking a girl. The girl was covered in blood, and her strength was evident in her raised hand.
“A descendant of gods.” Through Lin Chengtian’s eyes, Ling Yi recognized the woman’s identity.
Upon hearing that she was a descendant of a god, Lin Chengtian was somewhat surprised. The spatial barrier that had been blocking them had been broken, and now it was unimpeded for anyone to go in or come out. Since she was in the divine kingdom, it meant that she had come with the main force. Why was she injured and no one came to her rescue?
Just as Lin Chengtian was watching, the woman finally collapsed from exhaustion. As she fell, the shadows swarmed up, as if they wanted to devour her completely.
"The divine descendants abandoned her." 'Ling Yi' smiled. "There's usually something to be done about those abandoned by the divine descendants. Should we save her?"
Lin Chengtian said, "Then go ahead."
The moment he finished speaking, a large cloud of black mist flew out from Lin Chengtian's body and attacked the shadows.
Ling Yi's devouring method was much simpler and more direct than Ling Yi's. She directly ate those shadows instead of converting them into power and absorbing them like Ling Yi did.
