Chapter 68 You've Misunderstood
Seeing that the battle was over, Ling Yunxiao leisurely packed away the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen.
In that battle just now, his pen was practically sparking with energy; he even made the "Healing Technique" and "Live Towards Death" instantaneous.
"Hahahaha... [All Things] can indeed devour divine essence!"
Wu Tongxuan laughed loudly, and his aura suddenly underwent a dramatic change.
With the refinement of Moro's divine essence, he has broken through the ceiling of his cultivation.
However, when he stretched out his finger, he did not touch the so-called Daoist aura.
Wu Tongxuan sighed, but suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"No way? I haven't even touched my own Dao, and I'm already being killed by the backlash of the Dao?"
Wu Tongxuan looked at his hands, which were about to disappear, with a sense of sorrow and astonishment, but there was little fear in his eyes.
Ling Yunxiao summoned the Book of Life and Death and the Judge's Pen that he had just put away, and instantly cast the Healing Technique on Wu Tongxuan.
Wu Tongxuan's body, which was on the verge of collapse, was repaired, but his expression remained complex.
My current state is awkward. My body has absorbed the divine spark, but it seems that because the divine spark is too weak, it is not enough to condense the Daoist essence of [Myriad Phenomena].
However, his strength can be confirmed; he has indeed surpassed the ceiling level.
“Brother Wu, stop daydreaming. It’s just that we don’t have enough divine energy! We can kill the main god now as practice, and then we can let you hunt down a few more. We’ll definitely be able to collect enough Dao essence.”
Seeing Wu Tongxuan's distraught state, Ling Yunxiao smiled and offered words of comfort.
"That's right! If you were to condense this Daoist essence, you would surely become the first person to achieve godhood through human effort."
"The number one? Do you think the Great Xia Sword Immortal is just for show? I don't even know what my own Dao is right now, let alone condense the Dao essence. How easy is that?"
Wu Tongxuan rolled his eyes at Han Shaoyun, knowing that the man was deliberately trying to provoke him.
Just as the group was joking with each other, the ground suddenly shook violently beneath their feet. They quickly leaped onto Garuda King's back, and the vast mountain range that had stretched for thousands of miles beneath their feet began to shrink at an extremely rapid pace. In about half a minute, only a bottomless crater remained on the ground.
The shrunken mountain range had already been taken into the leopard's embrace.
The group exchanged glances, then simultaneously turned their gazes to Leng Xuan. They could see that although these people were summoned by Ling Yunxiao, they clearly preferred to be closer to Leng Xuan. Ling Yunxiao, of course, was pleased with this.
"Congratulations to General Leopard Tail for becoming the Lord of the Underworld of Wancheng Peak."
Leng Xuan smiled and bowed respectfully to Leopard Tail, whose aura had drastically changed after subduing the mountain range.
"Thank you, Young Emperor. This is a feather dress that Leopard Tail acquired in its early years. Wearing it can help one to conceal one's aura and focus one's mind, making it easier to enter the Dao. It can also make one invisible and conceal one's aura, so only a Great Emperor can detect it. I have heard that Young Emperor has someone he admires. Please accept this gift on her behalf."
"Leopard Tail's improvement is thanks to the grace bestowed upon us by the ruler; Leopard Tail will forever remember this."
After bowing again, Leng Xuan accepted the magnificent, beautiful, and elegant feather robe and draped it directly over Si Xiaonan's shoulders.
Ling Yunxiao was momentarily taken aback. Wasn't the difference in treatment a bit too great? Leng Xuan had only offered a congratulatory remark, and you were already giving a gift. "I invited you here, after all? Is this all the gratitude you're offering, just a verbal expression?"
"Leopard Tail is a reckless man who doesn't understand the art of bribery. Please forgive him if he takes charge."
Leopard Tail noticed that Ling Yunxiao's expression was off. After speaking in a muffled voice, he disappeared from the spot. It seemed that he had quite a problem with it.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"Hahaha... Brother Ling, don't force them to bribe you!"
"Heh heh heh... Is this what they mean by a county magistrate being worse than a county magistrate?"
"Hahaha... I reckon Leopard Tail will spread the word again when he gets back, saying that the Master of the Book of Humans, who holds a high position and great power, is still eyeing the meager sums in his pocket."
"Hahaha... Brother Ling, your lifelong reputation is completely ruined."
Wu Tongxuan was the first to laugh out loud, and the others also looked at Ling Yunxiao, laughing loudly without any mercy.
Ling Yunxiao realized that their gifts to Leng Xuan were a sign of their care for a younger generation. He, on the other hand, likely held a very high position in their hearts due to his bloodline and number of followers. Therefore, while they gave gifts to everyone in the team, they never considered giving him anything, fearing a stigma of bribery…
For a moment, Ling Yunxiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His team was the weakest! Wasn't anyone able to see through his vulnerability?
"Yunxiao, it's also possible that they think you have the supreme treasures of the Book of Humans and the Brush of Humans, and they really look down on their ordinary treasures. If they were to give them away, it would be a huge loss for them to give you some supreme treasures. They've crossed over from another realm to help us fight, and they want to give you treasures at a huge cost, so naturally they're unwilling."
Wang Mian gently patted Ling Yunxiao's shoulder and comforted him.
Ling Yunxiao blinked, finding Wang Mian's words quite reasonable, and his expression grew even more sorrowful. He possessed a hammer-shaped treasure, yet these two things were draining his reincarnation power. The Killing Technique, which could be activated with a single touch, had deducted 20,000 points without a second thought.
"Thank you, although I wasn't really comforted."
"You've misunderstood. I wasn't trying to comfort you. I was just advising you not to make that face next time, because it makes people think your leadership is too low-class."
Most importantly, you're hindering others from showing their care for the younger generation. Everyone in our team except you still has a chance to receive gifts. We can't let you cause all of us to lose the opportunity to exchange for weapons and obtain spiritual treasures, can we?
"..."
Ling Yunxiao fell silent. Was the King beside him possessed? What kind of vortex of words was this? Shouldn't he be comforted?
"Hahaha……"
The group burst into laughter again, their joy genuine. If Ling Yunxiao had truly obtained some powerful weapon or magical artifact, they would have no excuse to stop him. They were absolutely uneasy about letting their reliable Divine Shepherd, as dependable as a fountain tree, join the battle.
The world where only Ling Yunxiao was injured was thus created. He sat on the woolen felt with a sorrowful look in his eyes, viciously gnawing on the roast chicken in his hand, as if these were his beloved teammates.
