Chapter 284: Meeting
After Yi Yun killed the Metallic Fire Ant he cut off its two pincers with a swipe of his saber. The moment the Metallic Fire Ant died, its internal Yuan Qi began depleting, so the pair of pincers were easily removed.
“This brother, may I know your name?” The voice of a youth came from behind Yi Yun.
Yi Yun turned around and the youth that had been chased by the Metallic Fire Ant cupped his fists, “I am Chu Shan, and this is my younger sister Chu Luo. We are second year cultivators from the Tai Ah Divine City.”
After the youth introduced himself, he continued “If not for this brother, we would have had to waste a life-saving array charm today. If that happened, we would have to leave Meteorite Abyss.”
Many cultivators would spend a large sum of dragon scale runes to buy a life-saving disk array before they ventured out on a training expedition, it was used as a last resort to protect their lives. Once the life-saving disk array had been used, they would have to consider returning to the city. If not, the chances of being seriously injured, or even death, was extremely high.
Before Yi Yun could get out a reply, a sound that cut through the air could be heard. A girl holding a sword and a stout man rapidly rushed towards them.
“Chu Shan, Chu Luo, are you alright!?”
The sword-wielding maiden was like a shadow, and with a few flashes, she appeared before Chu Shan and Chu Luo. Upon seeing the people who came, Yi Yun was shocked.
This male and female duo was actually Chu Xiaoran and Qiuniu.
He knew that Chu Xiaoran and Qiuniu had been out training all this time, but he had never expected that they would be in the Meteorite Abyss.
Seeing Chu Xiaoran, Yi Yun realized that in the few months he did not meet her, her internal Yuan Qi had become purer. She was probably already gathering energy in preparation for breaking through to the Yuan foundation realm.
“Her cultivation level has already reached the peak of Purple Blood…” Yi Yun thought. Although he had formed the Heaven’s eyeball, he was still unable to determine Chu Xiaoran’s exact cultivation level with a glance.
“Sister, you came so quickly!”
Seeing Chu Xiaoran, Chu Luo was delighted as she held onto Chu Xiaoran’s hands.
Only then did Yi Yun notice that they all shared the same surname, Chu. They were likely from the Defender Duke’s family as well. Chu Luo and Chu Shan may be older, but they were clearly no match for Chu Xiaoran.
“Yes, I received your distress signal and rushed over here! And… Yi Yun! I did not expect to see you here. What a coincidence!”
Chu Xiaoran had noticed Yi Yun earlier. Chu Xiaoran greatly admired Yi Yun from the bottom of her heart.
“So you are Yi Yun! No wonder you have such strength at such a young age!”
Chu Luo and Chu Shan had naturally heard Yi Yun’s name, but they had never seen him in person. They also knew that the younger sister they regarded as a proud daughter of heaven had previously been defeated by Yi Yun.
“It really is a coincidence. Actually, it is quite normal for me to be in Meteorite Abyss, but as for Miss Chu. You practice frost ice laws, why are you here in Meteorite Abyss?”
Chu Xiaoran smiled and said, “The Meteorite Abyss sucks in all of the pure Yang Qi from the surroundings. Deep under the Meteorite Abyss is a place with extreme Yin. There is a ice river that flows out from that extreme Yin land. I have been training here for the past few days.”
“Oh? There is such a thing?” Yi Yun had only been reading information on the pure Yang lands, so he did not know that a pure Yin land also existed within Meteorite Abyss.
He had indeed previously seen a small river, which had temperatures below freezing point. It was most likely a distributary of that ice river.
This was probably also the principle of opposites.
“Haha, little brother Yi, we actually meet here.” Qiuniu had a very good impression of Yi Yun. After all, as the saying goes, friendship grows only when you exchange blows.
He tapped Yi Yun’s shoulders heavily and said, “Little brother Yi, you must have done your research on the Meteorite Abyss, but information is just information. It cannot compare with live maps like us. I, Qiuniu, have spent several months here in Meteorite Abyss! I can tell you what sort of desolate beasts exist in whatever location, and what sorts of desolate beasts suit you the best. With everyone together, we can take care of each other!”
Qiuniu’s words made Yi Yun hesitate slightly. The Meteorite Abyss was indeed a very dangerous place. It was very tiring to handle everything by himself.
Especially at night, he had to be on high alert while resting. It was extremely taxing.
But there were also advantages of being alone…
As Yi Yun was in a dilemma, Qiuniu said, “Little brother Yi, this Metallic Fire Ant was killed by you. Quickly try to condense your Aspect Totem. Although it’s very difficult to condense an Aspect Totem before
