...
Xu Xiaoshan stopped in his tracks, eyes wide open. Pulling out two Flying Swords, he examined them carefully but couldn't find anything unusual. However, not daring to persist any longer, he tossed them back to Yan Xiaobao.
Yan Xiaobao cleared his throat, conjured up two more swords, and threw them back to Xu Xiaoshan.
As he watched Yan Xiaobao, Xu Xiaoshan showed a strange expression on his face. He wasn't sure what was wrong with the first set of swords, but he could imagine that if Yan Xiaobao hadn't said anything, he might have walked right into a disaster.
As he and Xu Xiaoshan stared at each other, Yan Xiaobao blinked several tis.
After a mont, Xu Xiaoshan sighed, his eyes twinkling. Earlier, he was just pretending to like Yan Xiaobao, but at this point, he genuinely liked him.
"I rarely get along with others well. Alright, listen, Bai Xiaobao. Actually, there's a mnemonic that goes with these two jade pendants, the only correct way to use them. Without the mnemonic, they will create a light that protects you from that banesoul, but after a while, the light will disappear and leave a seal mark on your cultivation base that will prevent you from using it for a whole month," Xu Xiaoshan said with a bitter smile, tossing a piece of jade to Yan Xiaobao.
"You rascal!" Yan Xiaobao gasped. If he used the jade pendant while trying to reach the Foundation, only to have his cultivation base sealed, he would lose a whole month. He might even lose the chance to establish the Foundation.
"You're just as bad!" Xu Xiaoshan responded. Then he coughed dryly. "Well, I'm from the Blood Flow Sect, and you're from the Spiritual Flow Sect. We should be opposing each other." Up to this point, he was being completely honest, which was rare for him. The fact was, he had never t anyone like Yan Xiaobao before.
"Alright," Yan Xiaobao said. "Since you're being so honest, I'll stop admiring you. Do you know those magic items you used against during the fight? I dyed them with dicinal fragrance to attract banesouls." Feeling a bit embarrassed, he lowered his voice and concluded, "You should also change your clothes."
Xu Xiaoshan's eyes widened; after quickly checking his bag and clothes, he looked at Yan Xiaobao through gritted teeth. "Y-You! You're completely shaless!"
"You're just as bad!" Yan Xiaobao said, glaring at him.
The two of them stared at each other for a while, then burst into laughter.
"I hope we et again soon," Xu Xiaoshan said sincerely. Then he turned and dashed off into the distance.
Once he was out of sight, he changed his clothes, his heart pounding with lingering fear. As far as he was concerned, Yan Xiaobao was as much of a threat as he was, aning he would have to be extrely careful in dealing with him in the future.
Yan Xiaobao also sighed. Although Xu Xiaoshan was from the Blood Flow Sect, he still seed to be a good friend.
"Aside from that, he's very cunning, definitely not as honest as I am. I must be careful handling him in the future. Ai. I suppose I'm too honest." Shaking his head, he flicked his sleeve and accelerated.
After thoroughly inspecting the jade pendant, he used the mnemonic of the jade to unleash their power. Monts later, shimring light erged around him.
The field of light quickly beca invisible, detectable only through divine senses. However, as far as the banesouls were concerned, this made approaching Bai Xiaobao completely impossible.
In the following six hours, a girl wearing a white dress appeared several tis. However, each ti she approached, she was repelled. Her face twisted with anger, she scread and shrieked but still couldn't get close to Yan Xiaobao.
After so many failures, she reluctantly vanished and did not return. At that point, Yan Xiaobao breathed a sigh of relief. He was deeply convinced that the jade pendants were indeed effective. He dove to the bottom of a secluded lake and dug out a temporary Immortal Cave. There, he sat cross-legged and ditated.
After conducting a final test to ensure the jade pendants would ward off banesouls, his eyes flickered with anticipation as he took out the gray Earth Line capture crystal.
"Even though I started later than I planned by a few days, I can still be the first to establish the Earth Foundation!" Subsequently, he released the spiritual power of the Level 10 Qi Condensation Great Circle, allowing it to flow once and then hurled it furiously into the gray crystal.
The crystal was like a bottomless pit, absorbing all of his spiritual power. Then, it started emitting a gray light, becoming stronger and soon emitting a mighty rumble.
The crystal began to slowly burn, transforming into white mist spring absorbed through his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. After more than thirty breaths, the crystal trembled slightly and then disappeared, causing a torrent of gray mist to rush into Yan Xiaobao's body.
As the gray mist surged into him, his eyes began to develop bloodshot streaks, perating his veins, with his whole body spinning. anwhile, pain swept over him; the gray mist seed almost to be forming, like iron chains scraping against his flesh.
This pain sent a chill through him, but compared to the pain he had experienced cultivating the Immortal Eternal Life Skill, it was insignificant. Yan Xiaobao didn't hum so calmly. He gritted his teeth, waiting until the last bit of mist drilled into his head. When the tail end of the mist connected with the initially entered mist, it created sothing similar to a circle.
