Battling Fierce Beasts
In the vast wilderness, humans and beasts were in opposition, however up to today, Yi Yun had never fought a real fierce beast before!
The Cloud Wilderness had no lack of fierce and desolate beasts. He would regret leaving the Cloud Wilderness before fighting any beasts.
“The fierce beasts you kill shall be refined by me into fierce beast relics. After eating the fierce beast relics, together with the herbal essence of the green elixirs, it will help you break through to the Purple Blood realm!”
Lin Xintong spared no effort in helping Yi Yun. She had also given him the green elixirs in the past, so all this kindness made Yi Yun feel sorry. “Miss Lin, why are you helping me?”
Lin Xintong hesitated slightly and said, “Since you want to know, there’s no harm telling you. When I was born, my family determined that I was born with Yin Meridians. I will eventually hit a bottleneck in my cultivation. Due to the Yin Meridians, I will never be able to get past this bottleneck.”
“Oh?” Yi Yun was shocked. He had never heard of Yin Meridians before.
“Yin Meridians are also known as terminated meridians; there is almost no way of joining them up. But strangely, when I make contact with your body, I would occasionally feel my meridians activate. I have found a glimmer of hope for my terminated Meridians on your body. Although tiny, it is better than none… Maybe, when you go further and grow stronger, this hope will become larger…”
When Lin Xintong said those words, her expression turned forlorn. She raised her head, looked at the limitless star-filled sky and gave a faint sigh.
Yi Yun was stunned. Lin Xintong was actually burdened with terminated meridians?
Although Yi Yun did not understand a lot, but he could guess from the word “terminated” what it meant.
He associated the crossing of palms with Lin Xintong the night before. Lin Xintong had mentioned a secret of hers, so it was most likely this.
Yi Yun found it incredible to imagine. To him, Lin Xintong’s strength was massive and she was extremely talented, with no bottom!
But she actually was born with terminated meridians. She could still have this ridiculous talent even with terminated meridians? If not for the terminated meridians, to what extent could her strength reach?
Yi Yun was shocked.
The world was indeed vast and filled with experts!
He deeply understood that no matter what results he had had obtained, he was just at the beginning steps. The road ahead of him was still long!
“Give me your hand.” Lin Xintong stretched out her hand once again. Again it was this white creamy hand. Under the moonlight, it suffused the luster of jade, dazzling Yi Yun.
“Danger lurks within the Desolate Human Valley. Even some plants are man-eating monsters. You aren’t able to perceive things yet, and you can only use your eyes. In the dark Desolate Human Valley, it will be extremely dangerous. Hold my hand, I’ll be able to avoid any danger. If you were to separate from me, and take a wrong step, you might fall into a trap and enter the stomachs of the beasts, and be eaten in an instant!”
Lin Xintong’s words were not unfounded. The Desolate Human Valley was fraught with danger. The monsters within were not only proficient at killing humans, they were masters of disguise and sneak attacks!
Yi Yun puckered his dry lips and held Lin Xintong’s hand.
The two slowly walked hand in hand into the rugged Desolate Human Valley.
To venture into the Desolate Human Valley with Lin Xintong made Yi Yun fill with anticipation.
At this moment, the moon was dim and the winds strong. There was little light that entered the Desolate Human Valley. Yi Yun followed Lin Xintong slowly. Yi Yun could not see Lin Xintong at all, he could only feel his hand holding Lin Xintong’s. In the silent darkness, he could faintly smell the fragrance of Lin Xintong’s body.
The Desolate Human Valley was too quiet, so they could hear each other’s heartbeats. This intriguing feeling made it seem like they were the only two people left in this world.
Although it was safe, but walking hand in hand with Lin Xintong made the atmosphere ambiguous.
Lin Xintong walked in front and being able to use her senses to perceive the area, it did not affect Lin Xintong’s vision despite the absence of light.
It seemed like she could still see Yi Yun if she turned her head back.
In fact, Lin Xintong had to admit that she was very willing to make contact with Yi Yun. Holding Yi Yun’s hands made her especially comfortable.
Lin Xintong was born with Yin Meridians, so her body was cold like water. As for Yi Yun’s physique, it was hot. In Yi Yun’s meridians, it seemed like there was a constant flow of hot energy. This flowed through their skin and nourished Lin Xintong’s body. It made her extremely comfortable.
There were even times when Lin Xintong’s closed off meridians would have some tiny changes because of Yi Yun.
