Chapter 1350 - 1346
Yun Ran called out a few times to the disappearing back of Dragon Spirit, but unfortunately, her voice seemed to fall on deaf ears.
The remaining Fire Essences that hadn’t been swept away by the Demon-locking Tower were left stunned by the scene before them.
[Master, is the Dragon King playing hide-and-seek with you?]
Yun Ran: ...
What kind of hide-and-seek nonsense is this? Dragon Spirit found this place, so it’s impossible for it to pretend not to see or hear.
At this moment, even with just a rear-end guess, it’s clear that the vanishing void is to blame.
It’s just like what happened when they entered the Death Mountain and encountered similar situations inside the Demon-locking Tower.
These substances, akin to smog, fill the entire space, forming a void where even Immortal Realm beings would struggle to spot the life standing right in front of them.
Yun Ran sighed; she should have anticipated such a situation, wasting her breath for nothing!
Seeing the visibility gradually widening before her, Yun Ran beckoned once more to the Fire Essences surrounding her.
"Continue to burn those smog-like things, return when you’re out of energy!"
Since following Yun Ran, the Fire Essences have gained immeasurable benefits. Now, they are incredibly obedient.
[Yes, Master, we’ll go right now!]
The Fire Essences flew away, and Yun Ran’s gaze shifted again to the Demon-locking Tower slightly above her.
"This speed is still too slow. As long as there’s even a tiny bit of void left, Dragon Spirit might not be able to find me."
With that said, Yun Ran sliced her palm again, but this time, it wasn’t just Blood Beads that emerged.
Instead, the blood bubbled out, quickly pooling into a puddle that her whole palm could barely contain.
Under normal circumstances, Yun Ran would’ve been heartbroken by such an amount of Essence Blood — it’s not replenishable no matter how much Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures one consumes.
But this time, there was no trace of pain in Yun Ran’s eyes, she even felt the amount of Essence Blood wasn’t enough.
Next, she slashed another cut on her arm.
The blood swiftly pooled from her wrist into her palm, but strangely, it didn’t overflow and drip to the ground as logic would dictate.
A large bunch of blood seemed to be bound together by some special power, forming a blood drop the size of an egg.
"Go!"
With Yun Ran’s command, the egg-sized blood drop wobbled out from her palm and slowly lifted into the air.
Going straight towards the spinning body of the Demon-locking Tower in mid-air.
As soon as the blood touched the Tower’s body, it was instantly absorbed, not scattered or splashed by the Tower’s high-speed rotation.
"Suck with all your might!"
Having absorbed a large amount of Yun Ran’s Essence Blood, the rotation speed of the Demon-locking Tower increased so much it was hard to discern its original spinning shape; only a faint stationary blur at the edges could be seen.
Moreover, the Tower’s body emitted a brighter light, completely different from the light sources released by Demon Cores or Fire Essences.
This light has an extremely strong penetrative ability, effortlessly passing through materials that would block other light sources.
This scene finally made Yun Ran’s previously troubled expression dissipate a bit.
The wounds on her arm and palm still oozing blood, Yun Ran now seemed like a rich person, showing no sign of distress.
But there’s a difference between not feeling distressed and wasting.
The power needed to activate the Demon-locking Tower was enough; no more Essence Blood should be wasted.
Yun Ran calmly took out a small Jade Bottle, filling it with the surplus blood. This bottle was custom-made.
Fresh blood kept in it wouldn’t coagulate nor lose its vitality, making it an excellent tool for temporary storage.
After properly storing the blood, Yun Ran then took out pills, crushed them into powder, and casually sprinkled it over her wounds.
The previously somewhat ghastly wounds immediately stopped bleeding the moment the powder touched them, leaving only very fine scars.
With such healing effectiveness, should the wounds have been any shallower, they might’ve already healed completely.
The Demon-locking Tower’s speed of absorbing those void substances increased.
As visibility expanded, Yun Ran’s previous dizziness and the looming feeling of explosion began to fade.
At this time, another Dragon Roar exploded in her ear.
Yun Ran was no longer as agitated as before, she raised her head to look in the direction the sound came from.
No surprise, Dragon Spirit was seen flying towards her again from another direction.
It was certain that until those void-composing substances were fully absorbed, Dragon Spirit wouldn’t find her.
Yun Ran couldn’t be bothered to waste her expressions, calmly watched Dragon Spirit fly over her head once more.
With more of the void substances being absorbed by the Demon-locking Tower, the density of the entire space reduced, allowing Yun Ran to clearly see the scales on Dragon Spirit’s body.
Its entire body was a jumble of black, cyan, white, and some inconspicuous red mixed together.
The whole Dragon Soul looked somewhat ridiculous, as if it were mixed-breed.
Almost instantaneously, Yun Ran was sure this Dragon Soul was a part of Dragon Spirit’s Dragon Soul torn apart.
Dragon Spirit absorbed several Dragon Cores; its body could suppress the traits devoured from other Dragon Cores.
But the manifested Dragon Soul showed the amalgamation of all the Dragon Cores.
What a shame there’s no mobile phone; otherwise, Yun Ran genuinely would’ve captured Dragon Spirit’s current appearance and framed it.
Even though it’s somewhat jarring, it’s definitely a unique piece!
Dragon Spirit, meanwhile, had no idea Yun Ran was considering preserving it as a rare collectable, unaware that Yun Ran pondered about making it a treasure.
After continuously flying back and forth from east to west without finding Yun Ran, Dragon Spirit couldn’t resist scratching its head with its claw.
"Obviously can feel Yun Ran is nearby, yet can’t find her, damn this place!"
The more Dragon Spirit thought, the angrier it became, immediately opening its mouth to spew a long, extended Fire Tongue.
Almost instantly, the temperature soared in places the Fire Tongue touched.
With such a temperature, any fleshly living being passing by would surely turn to dust instantly.
Dragon Spirit was merely a bit upset, but upon seeing the power of this casually spewed Fire Tongue, he frightened himself first.
"What the hell! This Fire Tongue..."
The next moment, Dragon Spirit turned pale with fright, realizing although the place is trivial, Yun Ran is here.
If this level of flames accidentally scorches Yun Ran...
Dragon Spirit dared not consider the consequences, clutching its head frantically, panicking in circles.
