After a long time, the intense feeling of loss finally faded, but there was still no sense of reality under their feet; they had not landed on solid ground.
Little Ke finally regained consciousness.
He suddenly realized that behind him were clouds shimmering with seven colors of light. It was because of these strange clouds that they hadn’t been injured at all.
These rays of light flowed out from the gaps in the stone door not far away.
“Thank you, you can let go now.”
A cold voice sounded beside his ear.
“Hmm…”
Little Ke was momentarily stunned.
That flawless and beautiful face was very close to him, so close that he could feel the warm breath.
Due to holding her too tightly, he could even feel the heartbeat of “Ice Chunk” through their clothes.
As everyone knows, when people fall into water or plunge from a great height, they will subconsciously grab onto anything they can.
Little Ke felt a bit awkward for a moment.
It was like worrying unnecessarily, doing something unnecessary.
Little Ke coughed lightly, released her, and stood up, pretending to look around:
“Where are we? I’ve never heard of any place like this within the Qingyuan Sect.”
“Did you bring me here just to come to this place?”
“Mm-hm.”
Ying Bing nodded, without providing further explanation.
“How did you know about this place?”
Little Ke asked casually.
When people feel awkward, they tend to talk more.
Ying Bing lowered her eyes and said calmly, “I came here in a dream.”
If what happened earlier was considered a dream, then this statement would be correct.
Afterward, many things changed for her.
But the call here has never disappeared for her.
Even if others had a hundred lives, they couldn’t come here by jumping off the Moon Viewing Cliff, located within the Qingyuan Realm.
Even if they managed to come, they wouldn’t be able to enter the inheritance smoothly, and would only be trapped in the rays of light.
“Let’s go.”
Ying Bing instinctively placed her hand on her waist, but found it empty.
“Mine.”
As soon as she spoke, a plain green steel sword appeared in her palm, with some small chips on it.
It seemed that coming to the Moon Viewing Cliff wasn’t as easy as he claimed?
Ying Bing suppressed her thoughts and nodded slightly, then stepped forward with the sword.
Little Ke followed closely beside her, keeping a watchful eye on the surroundings.
Since this was an inheritance, perhaps…
there might be some kind of test?
Just as the thought crossed his mind.
Whoosh—
A bone-chilling wind blew, causing a deep chill to rise from the depths of their souls.
“Come down…keep me company…”
“Why are you still alive!”
“Opportunity…a rare opportunity…bring me in together…”
Layer upon layer of murmurs floated in the wind.
“Be careful.”
“Don’t stray too far from me.”
Ying Bing’s clear voice echoed.
“What are these?”
Little Ke surveyed the surroundings by the light of the rays of light.
He noticed dark clouds surging, with grotesque and painful faces occasionally flashing past.
In the past, Ying Bing would have been too lazy to explain.
But today, she actually took the time to clarify:
“Warriors in the Observation Realm can observe mountains, rivers, the sun and moon, exotic flowers and strange grasses, various beasts, and even wondrous scenes of nature to temper their spirits. When they reach the peak of the Observation Realm, they can even leave their bodies and control objects with their spirit.”
“Therefore, if a warrior above the Observation Realm dies with lingering thoughts, a fragment of their spirit will not be extinguished and will transform into a yin object.”
“Yin objects cannot be seen in the sunlight, which is why there are so many here.”
Little Ke understood.
It was obvious that many people had attempted to explore the Qingyuan Realm and put their ideas into practice.
Among them were many strong individuals.
Clearly, they all failed.
A fragment of their lingering thoughts remained here, guarding the Nine Colors Original Phoenix inheritance they could no longer enter.
“Yin objects…”
The yin objects, carried by the cold wind from all directions, attacked them. Ying Bing immediately reacted.
Clang—
This was the first time Little Ke saw Ying Bing seriously wield her sword.
The sword light surged, releasing hundreds of sword blossoms.
Each sword blossom precisely hit a yin object, fiercely repelling it.
Perfect Realm Flower Seeking Sword Technique!
Enough to make the Internal Breathing Realm retreat. After hitting the yin objects, it did not cause significant damage.
It merely sent the opponents flying into the clouds, only to reappear shortly after.
“Move faster, yin objects are not afraid of weapons…”
Before Ying Bing finished speaking.
Suddenly, a gentle and peaceful aura came from behind.
In Li Mo’s chest, a feather-like shape glowed inside his pouch.
Flaming Oriole Feather.
Pure Yang, the bane of evil, murky, and yin objects.
Li Mo lightly punched.
On his fist, a thin layer of Flaming Oriole Yang Qi appeared.
“Hehehe…”
The yin object opposite clearly lacked a complete consciousness.
Thus, it did not possess the strict awareness and emotional discipline of a complete being.
Swoosh!
Like ice meeting hot oil.
The yin object, with a thick shadow like ink, began to dissolve almost instantly.
Instinctively, it wanted to retreat.
But it was directly pierced by Li Mo’s punch.
Puff—
The yin object dissipated.
“That pouch contains a trace of the phoenix clan’s aura.”
“It should be left by some bird containing true phoenix bloodline.”
Ying Bing’s tense body relaxed slightly.
So, there was no need to worry about him anymore.
But…
Why was Li Mo standing in one spot, unmoving?
Little Li was somewhat stunned.
Because just now, he received a notification.
[Congratulations, Host. Successfully invested in helping ‘Xia Rong’ dispel lingering thoughts and achieve peace.]
[Investment Feedback: One year of martial arts enlightenment.]
Li Mo: “!”
Killing yin objects could also count as investment feedback?
No wonder they say that aiding departed souls is considered merit…
Therefore,
Li Mo looked at the rolling shadows in the fog, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Even a mosquito’s leg is meat.
Rewards should be taken.
Li Mo was about to continue, but noticed Ice Chunk frowning at him.
“Cough.”
“These yin objects are mostly elders of the Qingyuan Sect.”
“Since it’s a simple matter, let them rest in peace.”
Little Li said earnestly.
Ying Bing pursed her lips, with a faint clarity in her eyes.
In the end, she didn’t urge him, quietly waiting beside him.
Any yin objects that came towards her, she would push towards Li Mo.
So refreshing.
Li Mo exclaimed inwardly.
Men and women working together makes the job easier.
Within two incense sticks’ time, the yin objects were basically cleared, and even the air seemed less chilling.
In return, he received a series of investment feedbacks.
Roughly calculated, he gained eighty-six years of martial arts enlightenment, bringing the total to nearly two centuries.
There were also miscellaneous items.
Broken weapons, medicinal pills with various effects, gold and silver treasures, and even a few land deeds whose validity was unknown.
“Thank you.”
Li Mo smiled sincerely and bowed to Ying Bing.
“Mm.”
Ying Bing sheathed her sword, and an inexplicable emotion arose in her heart.
Sometimes, she couldn’t understand why Li Mo would do such a thing that brought no benefit and wasted time.
But after doing it, she felt…
She didn’t dislike it?
Shaking her head, she moved forward a few steps and finally arrived at the entrance of the inheritance, in front of the moss-covered stone door.
Her pale hand pressed against the stone door.
Buzz—
An odd vibration came.
Dust fell, and the stone door slowly opened.
A peach-colored glow radiated out, filling the surrounding space.
The light suddenly brightened. Li Mo instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes, peeking through his fingers into the doorway.
