68. The Spirit Spring Appears
68. The Spirit Spring Appears
"The Spirit Pool Bath will open in one day. Fighting is prohibited before it opens!" A distant voice echoed in everyone's heart.
This was the second time the voice had appeared; it was the same voice before the teleportation, but when Xu Yingwu asked the voice a question, there was no response.
"What is this Spirit Pool Bath?" Xiao Yan asked Xu Yingwu in confusion. Neither Yang Yue nor Su Zhang had mentioned this thing before entering the Myriad Beasts Space.
Even Xu Yingwu shook his head; he was completely baffled, otherwise he wouldn't have been the first to ask.
Xiao Yan could only see confusion in the eyes of Lu Zhi and the others; clearly, they hadn't figured out what was going on either.
However, they all heard the order to stop fighting, and everyone subconsciously stopped. After all, they hadn't figured out the specific situation inside. The Myriad Beasts Space was set up by an ancient Dou Di, and no one knew what the punishment would be for violating the rules.
Xiao Yan also joined the three of them and began to inquire about the aftermath of their battle with the strange bird.
After dealing with the strange bird, the three followed the trail of the Hirayama Rhinoceros, but before they could find Xiao Yan, they were transported here by a mysterious voice. Xu Yingwu pondered for a long time but couldn't obtain any information related to this space.
Xiao Yan shrugged and could only accept it. There were quite a few mysterious things in this Beast Space, and he had received mysterious guidance twice before. Now he had entered such a mysterious place again, but what Xiao Yan knew was that the Beast Space was a huge training ground designed by the Void Emperor for the young geniuses of the Northwest Region. There was no situation where death was certain, and all they could do was to deal with whatever came their way.
Xiao Yan decided to sit cross-legged and cultivate. The continuous battles had consumed a great deal of his fighting spirit and soul power, and now was clearly a good opportunity to recover.
Lu Zhi and the others shared the same thought, so a strange tranquility settled over the space.
Xiao Yan relied on the power of absorption to greatly increase his recovery speed, and his body had recovered to its best condition after two hours.
Looking at the people in the space, I couldn't help but sigh: by sheer coincidence, the strongest group of people in this conference have gathered here.
However, Xiao Yan still had some worries in his heart: Zi Yan had not been found in the Myriad Beasts Space!
By now, with the Beast Gathering having reached this stage, Zi Yan should have already attracted attention. However, after Xiao Yan checked the information with Xu Yingwu and the others, they discovered that Zi Yan had never appeared on the rankings. Furthermore, no one from the Echoing Sect had ever seen any trace of her. Xiao Xun'er had been searching for Xiao Yan, always wearing her tracking jade ring, but she had also never seen Zi Yan.
Ironically, outside the Beast Space, Xiao Yan witnessed Zi Yan entering it. Xiao Yan wasn't worried about Zi Yan's abilities; after absorbing the essence blood obtained from the auction, her strength was definitely no weaker than any of the geniuses here.
Xiao Yan was worried that Zi Yan might have wandered into some dangerous ruin. After all, even a terrifyingly powerful expert like Ming Mei would stay in the Myriad Beasts Space. If Zi Yan were really trapped in some ruin, Xiao Yan wouldn't be able to rescue her. But the Myriad Beasts Space lacked everything except mysterious secret realms, so all Xiao Yan could do was worry anxiously.
After all, when Zi Yan left the academy with Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan had promised Elder Su Qian that he would protect Zi Yan's safety.
As Xiao Yan was frowning in worry, he suddenly felt his hand being held. He turned around and saw Xiao Xun'er, who had been staring intently at him.
"Is Brother Xiao Yan worried about Zi Yan?"
Xiao Yan smiled helplessly and looked at the stunning beauty in front of him, saying, "Nothing can be hidden from you, little girl."
Xiao Xun'er smiled and said, "Brother Xiao Yan's feelings are written all over his face! I think Zi Yan should be alright. It seems that no news is good news. She's probably undergoing trials in some secret realm."
"Let's hope so, we don't have any better options right now."
Xiao Xun'er's concerned gaze suddenly changed, and she asked with a hint of slyness, "Brother Xiao Yan, what did you do to Qing Lin?"
Upon hearing Xun'er ask about Qing Lin, Xiao Yan inwardly cursed his luck and said somewhat guiltily, "It's nothing. Why would you ask that?"
Xiao Xun'er rested her chin on her hand and asked in a drawn-out voice, "Oh? Really nothing? Qing Lin's gaze towards Brother Xiao Yan is a bit strange."
Xiao Yan subconsciously touched his nose, inwardly marveling at how exceptionally sensitive women's senses were.
He then told Xiao Xun'er everything about his battle with Lu Zhi, how Mingmei saved him, and how he went to help Qinglin eliminate the evil spirit. Of course, Xiao Yan kept some of the specific details to himself.
After hearing Xiao Yan's explanation, Xiao Xun'er was momentarily stunned. After processing it for a while, she asked, "Does Brother Xiao Yan like Sister Qing Lin?"
Looking at Xiao Xun'er in front of him, Xiao Yan sighed and said, "I have always regarded Qing Lin as my younger sister."
Suddenly, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Xiao Xun'er rested her head on Xiao Yan's shoulder and slowly said, "Brother Xiao Yan, Xun'er believes that one day you will stand at the top of this continent. At that time, all the women on the continent will be available for Brother Xiao Yan to choose from. Xun'er has never thought of monopolizing Brother Xiao Yan."
Hearing Xiao Xun'er's humble words, Xiao Yan was inwardly shaken. With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for? Xiao Xun'er was always so obedient, following behind him. If it weren't for his breakthrough after absorbing the Red Lotus Karmic Flame, Xiao Yan couldn't even imagine how well Xiao Xun'er would conceal her cultivation level.
Of course, Xiao Yan didn't believe at all that Xiao Xun'er was showing the strength of an ordinary Dou Huang. This girl just habitually reserved the most dazzling position for herself.
Xiao Yan had eliminated a terrifyingly powerful force behind Xiao Xun'er, and her talent was nothing short of monstrous, yet this girl was willing to stay by his side regardless of the cost.
Xiao Yan didn't say much, but simply held Xiao Xun'er's hand tightly, savoring the hard-won tranquility in this ever-fighting Beast Realm.
But tranquility is always broken. A day later, hot spring water kept gushing out from the eight pits surrounded by rocks. After absorbing the hot air floating in the air, Xiao Yan felt extremely comfortable.
The eight people stared at the eight springs, their eyes filled with undisguised longing. They found the steam so refreshing; they wondered what benefits they could gain from soaking in them.
"One person, one spring, bathing in the spiritual pool for three days, cleansing the marrow and bones, eradicating hidden injuries."
A voice devoid of any emotion rang out, but even without his introduction, the crowd clearly had no intention of missing this opportunity.
However, the four major and four minor ones are clearly different.
"It seems that good things are earned through one's own ability."
