Chapter 2488 - 1444
Lai Jianlin and the members have spread out; they aren’t together, but they do group in threes or fives, within many invisible magical treasures.
Before nightfall, they have dinner in mid-air.
Lai Jianlin and his wife are together; both have learned culinary skills. Since there’s food here, they quietly fished a few from Amber’s place and prepared a full fish feast.
This is a world for the couple, and this kind of travel is like a honeymoon.
They continue to roam freely, usually joining others in battles, but sometimes having a world of two during meals.
The so-called candlelit dinner is exactly now.
Luo Yaxuan is also with Liu Jiaojiao, having dinner, but they heard about a different way to prepare fish. They made a delicious meal, enjoying it together.
At this moment, they all felt blissful.
And neither of the teams would meddle with the couple, as they didn’t want to be the annoying ones.
No one wanted to be fed with dog food.
Liu Jiaojiao looked at Luo Yaxuan with deep affection. After their meal, their sweet-talking and loving night began.
The two embraced, their eyes looking outside.
There’s already a show to watch now.
Outside in the sky, flickering ghost flames were drifting.
Indicating that ghosts were drifting along.
Those ghosts occasionally moved toward their invisible flying crafts.
They were heading towards the edge of the lake; actually, there were also flickering lights drifting at the lake’s bottom.
Other than water-type demonic beasts, none dared approach the lake’s edge.
The reason they are at this water source is to rest, waiting for the Nourishing Soul Flower to bloom.
As night approached, the Nourishing Soul Flower, barely a bud, timidly bloomed in front of people and demonic beasts.
Those watching the commotion also quietly moved a little further to find and pick the Nourishing Soul Flower.
Because they were invisible, even though there were ghosts floating nearby and demonic beasts around, in picking the flowers, since there were so many, even if a few vanished, they might not even notice.
At this moment, demonic beasts and ghosts were contesting to pick the flowers.
While picking flowers, they didn’t fight.
Whoever picked more would own it.
Would they fight after picking?
Would they snatch the flowers?
After human cultivators picked some, they invisibly flew back into the sky.
They had planned together not to be too greedy, so as not to let demonic beasts discover them, nor let ghosts find them.
It’s not that their fighting capability was inadequate; they dared not stand on the ground at night due to its pull, which demonic beasts could endure, and ghosts had the advantage.
Human cultivators didn’t have that advantage.
They wouldn’t be threatened by this magical treasure space at night; they could only fly within the magical treasure.
And they wouldn’t fly too high.
Here, humans, invisible, watched the battle between demonic beasts and ghosts.
Huang Chen also saw them within the magical treasure but dared not show himself. He saw Luo Yaxuan and Lai Jianlin, who were invisible.
Feeling both angry and resentful, with so many in these two teams, he didn’t dare come out.
He didn’t dare be discovered, fearing that this only magical treasure which allowed him to evade attacks would be seized.
Holding his breath, deep in the ground within the magical treasure, he watched both sides.
This moment, watching some demonic beasts had collected quite a few Nourishing Soul Flowers and began to flee quickly.
How could those two ghosts let such an opportunity slip?
Ghosts would not only seize the Nourishing Soul Flowers but also the vitality of demonic beasts.
Demonic beasts fled while fighting.
Those daring to venture the night had made thorough preparations; the injuries sustained during daytime battles had mostly healed.
Just after obtaining the Nourishing Soul Flower, they used it to heal their soul wounds.
During battles with ghosts, these demonic beasts showed their strength.
In fact, the lake isn’t far from their lair.
Demonic beasts liked living near water sources, as it allowed them to quickly find water.
These places, rich with Spirit Grass, enabled them to grow rapidly during cultivation.
Those daring to sit by the lakeside, not too far away, were usually large and formidable demonic beasts.
Smaller demonic beasts only dared to live further away or by streams.
Ghosts, of course, would not let them off; even if the demonic beasts returned to their lairs, ghosts could still visit and cause trouble.
Demonic beasts weren’t afraid upon returning to their lairs, for large beasts naturally had the strength to survive.
Their lairs wouldn’t be insecure due to the swaying of magical treasures or the probing of ghosts.
They had laid formations to protect themselves.
Before reaching their lair, demonic beasts stopped and fought the chasing ghosts.
Both sides battled using mana.
People only saw both sides using mana to attack each other.
Huang Chen watching familiar people also spectate, saw them increasing in strength again, feeling jealous.
How did Lai Jianlin, from a second-rate family, have this strength now?
His strength had even increased compared to a few days ago.
Is it that easy for them to increase their strength?
Could it be they possess different cultivation techniques?
Did they obtain powerful Heavenly Extreme Techniques?
Huang Chen was simply envious and resentful.
Once from a first-rate family, he saw Lai Jianlin only as a son from a second-rate family, facing him wouldn’t yield a good expression then.
When their strengths were about equal.
