Chapter 407 Demon Clan Holy Temple
Chapter 407 Demon Clan Holy Temple
After everything was over, the Qiling White Crane flew onto his shoulder and said with some emotion, "Shen Xu, you are truly remarkable. In my inherited memories, there are very few people who can have such a Yuan Qi vortex after breaking through to the Qi Condensation Realm."
However, this also corresponds to the True Spirit Blood Tablet; if you don't possess that kind of talent, your portrait won't be in the first column of the True Spirit Blood Tablet.
"Actually, it wasn't my talent, but something helped me. It was the same with the True Spirit Blood Stele. Even with my true talent, I probably wouldn't have been able to inscribe it on the True Spirit Blood Stele."
"Even if something is helping you, isn't that still part of your strength?"
“It’s different. I still prefer things that I can hold firmly in my hands, but thank you anyway.” He knew that the Qiling White Crane had been by his side during his breakthrough.
"Because I know there's no danger. If there were, I wouldn't be with you!" Qi Ling Baihe raised her proud head.
"Do you have a name? It feels a bit awkward to keep calling you Qiling Baihe," Shen Xu asked with a smile.
"Not yet, but it will be available after we visit the Feather Clan Temple."
Now that you've broken through to the Qi Sea Realm, when do you plan to go to the Feather Clan's Holy Temple?
"Let's see Xiaoruo! After all, I'm going with her."
"Hmm? Are you going to the Feather Clan Temple too?" Shen Xu suddenly realized something was off about Qi Ling Baihe's words.
"After all, I obtained the highest-level inherited spiritual blood in the True Blood Heavenly Palace, and the Feather Clan Holy Temple is more than happy to have me go there!"
"Is the True Blood Heavenly Palace at a much higher level than the Feather Clan Holy Temple?" Shen Xu asked with some doubt.
Upon hearing this, Qi Ling Baihe looked at him with disdain, "The True Blood Heavenly Palace has the spiritual blood of the entire demon race, while the Feather Clan Holy Temple has the inheritance of the Feather Clan Saints. There is no difference in their quality."
Do you know what the temples of the various races are all about?
He suddenly remembered the sense of calling he felt when he finished his breakthrough, and he felt that it might be the human temple.
"A temple is a temple! What else could it be?" Qi Ling Baihe asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence that every race has a temple? There must be some reason behind it."
"Who told you that every race has a temple? Among the myriad races in the void, there are fewer than a hundred races that possess temples."
The temple is the guardian of a race's destiny. Once a race's temple is breached, that race will fall out of the ranks of the powerful races of the void.
Conversely, as long as a race's temple remains, no matter how great the calamity that race suffers, it has the potential to rise again.
"So that's how it is! I wonder if the Soul Devourers have a temple, if the Soul Devourers can be considered a race." Shen Xu stroked his chin.
However, he felt that it was unlikely, since the reputation of Soul Devourers in the Void didn't seem to be very good.
Unfortunately, just as he had guessed, the Human Temple was not very interested in him, even though his extraordinary talent, displayed through the Black Seed, had attracted their attention.
Now all he can do is hope that the Feathered Clan Temple will give him a pleasant surprise.
"Does your demon race have more than one holy temple?"
"Hmm! The fact that the demon race has four holy temples is not exactly a secret in the void."
"Bai Lu and the others are back, I'm going back now." After saying this, Qi Ling Bai He flew into the sky and disappeared from his sight.
Shen Xu couldn't help but smile; Qi Ling Baihe clearly didn't want to spend any time with Xiao Ruo.
Looking at the somewhat messy ancient forest, Shen Xu felt a headache coming on. Apart from the area around him being relatively clean, the entire ancient forest was full of broken branches and fallen leaves, and it would probably take a lot of effort just to clean it up.
Fortunately, the strong wind only blew off many small branches, which did not have a major impact on the entire ancient forest. Otherwise, he would have had a hard time explaining it to Bai Lu.
After all, this was the place her mother left her, and even now, Bailu still feels a little sad when she sees those dead, withered trees.
When Bai Lu and Guan Bi saw the huge cyan vortex of primordial energy above Qingling Creek from the flying shuttle, they understood what had happened and, in order not to interfere with Shen Xu's breakthrough.
They stayed in the vicinity until everything was over before using their flying shuttle to return to Qingling Creek.
Although she had prepared herself mentally, seeing the devastation of Qingling Creek still ignited a nameless anger within Bailu.
It's one thing to stay out all night with Li Xiaoyi, but to ruin her Qinglingxi like this is simply unforgivable.
"Miss, it just looks a bit messy, but Qinglingxi didn't suffer any major losses."
Moreover, due to the influence of that vortex of primordial energy, the concentration of primordial energy in Qingling Creek has increased again. "Sensing Bai Lu's anger, Guan Bi spoke up to defend Shen Xu.
"I don't care, he broke through my limits here without my permission, he has to pay the price for what he did!" Bai Lu said through gritted teeth.
"Sister Bai, please don't blame Brother Xu, okay? I believe he didn't mean it," Xiao Ruo said, tugging at Bai Lu's sleeve.
"Xiao Ruo, this has nothing to do with you. None of you need to speak up for him. If his compensation doesn't satisfy me, I... I'll make him pay a heavy price!"
"Sorry, Bailu, how about I help you restore this place to its original state?"
Just then, the three heard Shen Xu's apologetic words coming from in front of them, and then Shen Xu's figure appeared in the mist.
"Not enough! No matter what you do, Qingling Creek will never return to its original state!" Bai Lu was fine until she saw Shen Xu, but as soon as she saw him, she couldn't suppress her anger.
“Shen Xu, Miss is very concerned about what you and Miss Xiao Yi did last night,” Guan Bi prompted.
"Guanbi, what are you saying! I wouldn't feel a single pang of sadness even if he and Li Xiaoyi died out there." Bai Lu was somewhat exasperated.
"Xiao Yi said he wanted to visit Xiao Xi, so I went with her and stayed there for one night."
However, if you think something happened between Xiao Yi and me, you're just overthinking it. I simply stayed there one night and came back early this morning.
"I really shouldn't have broken through in Qingling Creek without your permission, Bai Lu, and I also caused damage to Qingling Creek."
"I sincerely apologize to you. I promise I will do my best to restore the environment of Qingling Creek." Shen Xu bowed to Bai Lu and apologized.
Seeing this, Bai Lu and Guan Bi were both a little surprised. They both knew that Shen Xu would apologize, but they didn't expect him to lower himself so much.
"Who wants your apology? Besides, can an apology put food on the table?" Bai Lu was still very dissatisfied, but her tone had clearly softened a lot.
"Bai Lu, if you have any other requests, please feel free to make them. If I can fulfill them, I certainly won't refuse."
"You said it yourself. You want me to come back to the Tianhe Sword Sect with you and take me to see the Green Bamboo Mountains. You promised me this, so you can't go back on your word," Bai Lu said very seriously.
"May I ask why you want to go to the Tianhe Sword Sect?" Shen Xu couldn't help but ask.
“When the sword selection took place, I promised you that you would have the opportunity to learn the Seven Waves of the Overlapping Waves Sword Technique. Now that you have broken through to the Qi Sea Realm and have the conditions to use the Seven Waves, I will naturally keep my word.”
Upon hearing Bai Lu's words, Shen Xu was momentarily stunned before slowly saying, "Thank you, Bai Lu."
He hadn't expected that even after he had made such a mess of Qinglingxi, Bailu was still thinking of him.
"And could you tell me how you managed to create such a massive vortex of primordial energy? Those seniors said that even those with Heavenly Rank talent might not be able to reach that level." Bai Lu's eyes were filled with curiosity.
"I can only say that it was actually Gu Mulin who helped me." Shen Xu really wanted to tell Bai Lu the truth.
But reason told him that the fewer people who knew about the Soul Eater and the Black Seed, the better.
"Is the ancient forest really that magical?" Bai Lu murmured in confusion as she looked at the ancient forest.
