Chapter 921: Counterattack (One)
Not long after all the eight-attribute starlight around Lou Mu Yan entered her body, her cultivation base also shot up all the way, and soon broke through to half-step to Immortal.
Finally, she stopped when she was simply one step away from the cultivation base of Immortal.
The Core Stone in her hand also turned into a ray of light and penetrated into the centre of her brow.
When the surroundings returned to tranquillity, she slowly opened her eyes.
Seeing Ming Xiu’s warm and tender eyes fall on her, Lou Mu Yan chuckled: “Not bad, you refined the Core Stone one step earlier than me.”
Ming Xiu walked up to her and hugged her in his arms, kissed the tip of her nose, and said with a smile: “There are still many abilities that this husband hasn’t shown, you’ll know when we get married.”
Lou Mu Yan glared cutely at him—this guy could actually say these kinds of honeyed words now.
“You should’ve been able to breakthrough to Immortal before right.” She felt a strange wave just now. This kind of energy was similar to those commanders with Immortal cultivation base on the Foreign Battlefield.
Ming Xiu smiled and said: “The eight kinds of elemental energy attributes in my body have been completely fused to form a complete Domain, and it takes only one thought to breakthrough to Immortal.”
This time, they really did experience a blessing in disguise. Not only did they refine the Core Stone of Guang’ling World, but it also made it easier for them to breakthrough to Immortal cultivation base in the future.
He could actually step into the cultivation base of Immortal right now, but after refining the Core Stone, he had not yet created an avatar. He was afraid that he would be forcibly repelled by the Law and ascend to the Immortal World.
Moreover, he was hoping to ascend together with Lou Mu Yan, and he didn’t want to suffer the separation and lovesickness that he felt before when ascending from Tian’ling Continent to Guang’ling World, so he deliberately suppressed breaking through his cultivation.
“Mm, I also feel the bottleneck. As long as there’s an opportunity, advancing to Immortal cultivation base is just around the corner.” Lou Mu Yan said while playing with a strand of Ming Xiu’s black hair.
“We’ve been in this space for a long time, I wonder how long it’s been outside.” She thought for a while and said.
Ming Xiu was also a little worried that the time outside had passed too long—it’d be troublesome if they missed the arrival of the great battle.
“Mo Yan and the others are still waiting outside, let’s go out first.”
“Alright!” Lou Mu Yan thought the same.
The two stood up and walked out of the star space hand in hand, then quickly flew up from the magma sea.
Because the two refined the Core Stone of Guang’ling World, the star space here also collapsed and disappeared instantly after they left, and the heat energy of the magma sea also reduced a lot.
The two discovered this change but didn’t stop it. The Core Stones of Guang’ling World were birthed and distributed without any patterns. They could only be refined by those who were destined, and couldn’t be forced.
They were actually super lucky to have encountered such an opportunity this time. In fact, they had to thank those Fire Luan Beasts lurking in the geothermal magma sea.
The cultivation base of the two of them had improved rapidly and coupled with the weakening of the heat energy of the magma sea, it only took them three days to get out onto the surface.
“Owners have come out.” Miao Miao’s eyes lit up as she looked at the two red silhouettes that suddenly appeared.
The other spirit pets also had excited smiles on their faces.
Mo Yan and Mo Yàn also walked out of the cave after discovering their auras.
When Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu saw Mo Yàn, they were even stunned.
“Young Miss Lou, Ninth Prince.” Mo Yàn smiled at the two of them amiably.
Ever since he knew that Lou Mu Yan and Mo Yan were in a contractual relationship, he not only paid attention to his younger brother, but also paid attention to Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu.
He still admired the temperament and talent of these two people very much, and this time, it could be regarded as forming positive relationships.
“You’re Mo Yan’s eldest brother.” Lou Mu Yan looked at him with a smile, with a rather certain tone.
Ever since she found out that Mo Yan had an elder brother, she actually felt a little complicated inwardly. She was afraid that this elder brother would be like Mo Yan’s mother—if that were the case, then Mo Yan would probably suffer a lot.
Fortunately, seeing the calmness and gentleness emanating from Mo Yan, these two brothers must’ve had a very good conversation and their relationship should also be rather good.
As long as this person wasn’t that woman’s advocate, then it was fine.
“Mm, I’m Mo Yan’s elder brother, Mo Yàn.” Mo Yàn smiled and nodded.
He didn’t say anything superficial like how he was so glad Lou Mu Yan took care of Mo Yan these past years. He knew that the relationship between Mo Yan and Lou Mu Yan didn’t need to be so distant.
“Nice to meet you!” Lou Mu Yan smiled.
Ming Xiu also cast a friendly smile to Mo Yàn, “Brother Mo.”
A single way of address shortened the relationship between Mo Yàn and them.
“Let’s go into the cave to talk.” Mo Yan said with a faint smile.
“Sure!”
In the cave, Mo Yàn took out several jugs of spiritual wine and asked everyone to drink together.
Long Yao and the other spirit pets weren’t outsiders, so Mo Yàn didn’t avoid them when he planned to talk to Lou Mu Yan two this time.
After exchanging a few cups and chatting, Mo Yan pointed out the important topic.
“My Eldest Brother has discovered a weakness of the Fire Luan Beasts, and we need your cooperation to wipe them out.” Mo Yan looked at Lou Mu Yan, saying.
Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were bright like stars, and she asked curiously: “What’s the weakness?”
Both her and Ming Xiu’s strength had improved, so they shouldn’t have much problem dealing with that Fire Luan Beast King.
However, there were too many advanced-level aliens on the other side, and they were also very difficult to deal with. There was no guarantee that they could kill all of them at once.
If the Fire Luan Beasts really had a weakness, then they didn’t need to borrow experts from the other Three Realms to help.
Mo Yàn took out a stalk of chrysanthemum-like spiritual flowers from his interspatial ring and said: “I accidentally discovered that the pollen of this spiritual flower will cause an allergic reaction from the Fire Luan Beasts. Once they’ve been infected, their strength would be reduced by about thirty percent. If you can fuse it with poison, then when the time comes to lurk in their lair and scatter this, we will be able to net them all in.”
He used to be one of the Immortal Venerables of the Immortal World. It wasn’t difficult to investigate information about the Fire Luan Beasts of the Void Night World.
Lou Mu Yan liked to study strange things the most. She took the spiritual flower with great interest and looked at it over and over again.
“The pollen of this spiritual flower contains an invisible medicinal effect that could weaken the fire element. It’s indeed an excellent thing to use to deal with the Fire Luan Beasts.”
Lou Mu Yan smiled, “Using this means we can ‘gain victory with unstained swords1’, very good, I like it.”
If they requested top experts from the Three Realms to encircle and suppress the Fire Luan Beasts, then they would also suffer damage. Using poison was indeed an excellent way.
She looked at Mo Yàn surreptitiously with meaning. It seemed that Mo Yan’s eldest brother wasn’t an ordinary demon cultivator.
But everyone had their own secrets. She wasn’t interested in digging into them. As long as Mo Yàn was harmless to Mo Yan, then she was happy to see them brothers enjoying themselves merrily.
After all, she had always hoped that Mo Yan would have family who could truly care and love him.
“As long as it works!” Mo Yàn had lived for so long, so he could see through Lou Mu Yan’s little thoughts at a glance.
This also made him have a better impression of her. He just liked to deal with smart people who understood how to advance and retreat.
“I’m going to study the poison against the Fire Luan Beasts now.” Lou Mu Yan raised an eyebrow at Mo Yàn and said with a smile: “You don’t only have one stalk right.”
Mo Yàn chuckled, then contributed all the spiritual flowers on him, “I hope Young Miss Lou won’t disappoint us.”
“I definitely won’t disappoint you all.” Lou Mu Yan had a confident smile and a domineering look on her face, as if looking down upon the world, “Now it’s time for us to counterattack.”
