Chapter 294 – Thank You, Senior, for Your Generous Gift

Luo Ruying looked down at the Yang Spirit True Flame Immortal Tree root that had fallen at her feet, her expression one of great shock. She hurriedly looked up towards the sky.

The sky above was filled with bright stars, quiet and deep, without a single figure or any movement.

Her divine sense had not detected any trace of anyone when she had just scanned the surroundings. How could an immortal medicine suddenly fall from the sky…?

Luo Ruying looked around again with a puzzled expression, and only after confirming a third time that no one was there did she beckon with her hand and pick up the root from the ground.

How strange…

How did this root end up at her feet…

She happened to be missing exactly this one root. Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?

Could it be that some cultivator dropped it from mid-air by accident while flying past…?

If that were really the case, then she had truly picked up another great bargain…

This Yang Spirit True Flame Immortal Tree root was not easy to find and was also a rare immortal medicine!

Luo Ruying’s face showed her joy. After reinforcing the barrier around her, she hurriedly took out her immortal furnace and began to refine the pill.

“Daddy~ Mommy’s smiling~”

Luo Hongye, hiding in the thicket, looked up at Ning Yechen and said with a happy smile.

Ning Yechen looked at Luo Ruying in the distance, who was concentrating on refining the pill, and raised a finger to instruct Luo Hongye:

“Ye Ye, your mommy needs to concentrate on refining the pill now.”

“Next, you and Daddy will guard your mommy together and not let her be distracted.”

“Mmm~!”

“Ye Ye and Daddy will guard Mommy together~”

Luo Hongye replied in her soft, sweet voice, as happy as if she had been given an important mission.

“Such a good girl, Ye Ye~”

Ning Yechen smiled faintly, stroked Luo Hongye’s little head, and in an instant, they vanished from the spot.

While Luo Ruying was fully engrossed in refining the pill, a few immortal beasts, drawn by the aroma, had already approached.

A Red-Furred Immortal Ape, extremely skilled at concealing its aura and possessing the cultivation of the Immortal Venerable realm, stealthily arrived near the barrier Luo Ruying had set up.

Just as the Red-Furred Immortal Ape leaped into the air, wanting to smash the barrier with a punch, it was suddenly grabbed by the head by a hand and suspended in mid-air…

Hmm…?

The Red-Furred Immortal Ape turned its head with a puzzled and dazed expression to look at Ning Yechen…

Looking at Ning Yechen, who was standing tall in mid-air with one hand behind his back and the other holding its head, the Red-Furred Immortal Ape’s pupils instantly shrank.

Ning Yechen’s gaze was fixed tightly on the pill-refining Luo Ruying. He didn’t even give the Red-Furred Immortal Ape a single glance. With a slight squeeze of his hand, he directly crushed its head…

After dealing with one, Ning Yechen once again vanished in an instant.

In a flash, all living creatures within a thousand li, all those that approached the barrier, were completely cleaned up by Ning Yechen…

My wife is busy right now. You are not allowed to disturb her…!

While Ning Yechen was busy cleaning up the immortal beasts that were approaching, unaware of their impending doom, a rich medicinal fragrance, erupting with a scorching aura, spread through the surroundings.

“It’s done!”

The immortal furnace opened, and a crimson, fire-like Heavenly Fire Spirit Pill floated down into Luo Ruying’s hand.

Feeling the scorching aura and rich medicinal fragrance of the Heavenly Fire Spirit Pill in her hand, Luo Ruying hurriedly took out a jade bottle and stored the pill.

Strangely enough, logically, when an immortal pill was created, its rich medicinal fragrance should have been enough to attract all the nearby immortal beasts.

Yet from the time she started refining the pill until she put away her furnace, not a single immortal beast had appeared to disturb her…

There wasn’t even the slightest disturbance at her barrier.

Could it be that there are no immortal beasts active in this vicinity…?

She had even specially reinforced the barrier. It seems she had been overly cautious…

Luo Ruying thought to herself and, full of joy, was preparing to step into the Extreme Cold Land when suddenly, with a thud

, a large rat fell from the sky.

The rat’s fur was thick and fiery red, its body stout and fat, and it was nearly two zhang tall.

A Fire Pelt Rat!

Luo Ruying thought it was an immortal beast attack and vigilantly drew her Luo Shen Celestial Sword.

However, when she focused her eyes, she discovered that this was not right.

This Fire Pelt Rat was completely still; it was already dead.

Fire Pelt Rats also generally lived in scorching hot lands; they shouldn’t have appeared in this jungle…

Could it have been attracted by the scorching aura emitted by her pill…?

Luo Ruying had a look of confusion. She looked around again but still did not detect any trace of anyone else.

Judging by the size of this Fire Pelt Rat, it probably had the cultivation of the Immortal Sovereign realm.

Who killed this Fire Pelt Rat…?

Luo Ruying curiously walked to the corpse.

The most valuable part of the Fire Pelt Rat, its pelt, which was said to be able to resist all severe cold, had already been skinned off.

But strangely, although the pelt had been removed, it had not been taken.

To kill the Fire Pelt Rat but not take its pelt, it was as if it had been specially left for her…

“Which senior is here?”

“This humble one is Luo Ruying of the Luo Shen Palace. Might I have an audience?”

Luo Ruying once again scanned her surroundings and called out.

She was now certain that someone must be nearby; it was just that her divine sense could not perceive them.

Hiding in the thicket, Ning Yechen and Luo Hongye stared at each other, both with smiles on their faces as they made a shushing gesture.

The surrounding thicket was deathly silent, without the slightest sound.

Seeing no one answer, Luo Ruying furrowed her beautiful brows. Assuming the other party did not wish to reveal their identity, she had no choice but to give up and say with gratitude:

“Thank you, Senior, for your generous gift.”

“If Senior were to visit my Luo Shen Palace in the future, Ruying will surely repay you handsomely.”

After speaking, Luo Ruying picked up the Fire Pelt Rat’s pelt and, not lingering any longer, continued on her way to the Extreme Cold Land.

She couldn’t help but wonder in her heart, just which expert was secretly helping her…?

……

At the same time, deep underground in the Immortal Realm Trials.

Inside a vast, pitch-black, and sunless tomb.

A heavy, pitch-black coffin rested in the deep center of the tomb. The coffin was densely covered with immortal pattern formations, a thousand immortal swords were plunged into it, and golden immortal chains were wrapped tightly around it!

Poxian, with his hands behind his back, swaggered into the tomb.

Behind him were strewn the corpses of disciples from the various families of the Heavenly Realm who had happened to find this place early, as well as the remains of the immortal beasts that had tried to stop him.

The formation barriers that had blocked his path along the way were also lightly crushed by him.

Arriving before the coffin, Poxian first ripped off all the immortal chains wrapped around it, and then with one arm, he shattered all of the thousand immortal swords plunged into the coffin!

After doing all this, Poxian cut his own palm and let his blood drip onto the coffin.

The blood dripped onto the coffin, seeped in, and vanished…!

In an instant, the tomb trembled violently, and a massive wave of beastly aura and spiritual energy erupted forth!

“ROAR ROAR ROAR! Poxian…! It’s you!”

“You’re the one who let this Lord out?”

From the bottom of the coffin, eight pairs of crimson, vertical pupils lit up, staring fixedly at Poxian.

“That’s right, it’s me.”

“This Lord wants to join forces with you.” Poxian said calmly, looking down into the coffin.

“You want to join forces with this Lord?”

“Hahahaha, this Lord scorns to join forces with you bunch of immortal clan villains! Scram!”

A heaven-shaking laugh came from within the coffin.

Poxian was not angry. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly as he continued:

“Don’t be hasty. This Lord believes you will be very happy to join forces with me.”

“Don’t you want to know how to break through beyond the Transcendent Immortal Realm, surpass the gods, and become the ruler of the world?”

Inside the coffin: “…”

There was a moment of silence from within the coffin, and then a calm voice said:

“Let’s hear it…”
