C287 Accidental Harvest
Everything finally calmed down. The two glowing red bodies were still entangled together, but the heavy breathing within the room had already disappeared.
"I don't want to go out and meet people tomorrow. With such a large commotion, even senior uncle Yun would have heard …" Shen Xiaoyi's face turned red as her delicate fists continued to pound against Lin Bai's chest. She was panting even more!
Lin Bai chuckled and said in a soft voice, "Then just lie on the bed. I'll serve you tomorrow, eat, drink, and do as I say. I'll make you give me a big thumbs up!"
"Also, no matter where you go from now on, no matter if it's a mountain of blades or a sea of fire, you must bring me along. Otherwise …" "Hmph, otherwise, I would rather die!" Shen Xiaoyi let out a pout before she buried her head into Lin Bai's neck and whispered.
Lin Bai said warmly, "Silly girl, didn't I think it would be too dangerous outside? That's why I let you and Minerva stay in the Athenian Temple. That way, I can protect you."
"I don't care. Anyways, I've said it like that. No matter where you go from now on, you must come with me!" Shen Xiaoyi buried her head in Lin Bai's embrace and said resolutely. This was her personality. As long as she was certain that the right thing was to do, even if she were to hit her head on, it would not change!
Hearing Shen Xiaoyi's words, Lin Bai said in a warm tone, "Fine, I promise you. Besides, I won't let anyone bully you. If anyone dares to bully you, you'll end up like those people in the stone array!"
"That would be too miserable!" Shen Xiaoyi said in a daze when she heard this.
Lin Bai could not help but sneer. "That's not bad for me. Rest assured, as long as there is someone who dares to think about how to deal with you like the Stonehenge, I will definitely make him suffer a fate worse than death. Furthermore, the things that he has encountered will definitely be a hundred times more miserable than what you imagine! "
"Eh, what's under the blanket? Why do I feel that it's shining?!" Shen Xiaoyi inadvertently lowered her head to take a look, only to see a bright light changing within the blanket. She could not help but hurriedly embrace Lin Bai's neck as she exclaimed in shock.
Hearing Shen Xiaoyi's actions, Lin Bai looked into his blanket and was shocked. Could it be that someone had set up a camera under the blanket, or because the mountain was filled with Miasma, a ghost fire had appeared?
Lin Bai first pulled Shen Xiaoyi out of the blanket and carefully lifted the blanket. When he saw what was inside the blanket, he couldn't help but be stunned. Then, a brilliant smile blossomed on his face.
So it turned out that the changed victim was Xuanyuan mirror! When Lin Bai had taken this item out from Shang Zhuo's hands, the Yuan Qi inside the object was completely gone. It must have recovered a bit of Yuan Qi, which was why such a phenomenon occurred.
When Shen Xiaoyi saw that the item under her blanket was not a terrifying monster, she returned. After Lin Bai explained it to her, she was also very surprised. She had never seen such a weird scene in her life.
Unable to suppress the curiosity in his heart, Lin Bai carefully took the Xuanyuan mirror into his hands. But as soon as Xuanyuan mirror touched his palm, Lin Bai felt that his meridians had lost all of their mana. It was as if they had suddenly encountered some precious tonic, and they began to frantically devour the spirit energy within the Xuanyuan mirror!
In just a few short breaths of time, Lin Bai felt that his dried up meridians had been restored to their original state. Moreover, the mana that was flowing within them had already undergone some unknown changes.
Lin Bai felt as if his entire body had turned into a black hole. Following Xuanyuan mirror's attraction, the heaven and earth origin energy around him began to rush into his body as if it wanted to die. Previously, due to the suppression from the Swiss Earth meridian, it seemed to have ceased to exist.
At the start, Lin Bai's heart was filled with fear. He was afraid that after the heaven and earth origin energy rushed into his body, he would explode like a balloon! But before he could even react, the mana in his meridians began to circulate around his body, wrapping the heaven and earth origin energy. After a cycle, the heaven and earth origin energy became his own mana!
Furthermore, this mana was much purer than the ones he had accumulated before. Not only did he not feel uncomfortable, but he also felt comfortable and excited. Even his consciousness, which had been severely damaged in the Zurich church, was recovering little by little.
He was pleasantly surprised that Xuanyuan Jing had the ability to transform heaven and earth origin energy for his own use. He was delighted that the heaven and earth origin energy he absorbed into his body could not only nourish his mana, but was also extremely beneficial for his own spiritual sense.
Shen Xiaoyi looked at Lin Bai's pleasantly surprised face and asked in a soft voice, "Lin Bai, could it be that this thing is beneficial to you? "I can't help but feel that there's something strange going on!"
"There must be something strange." Lin Bai nodded his head and said, "But this is a good thing. The Fa Li in my body that had dried up before has been restored, and it has also become much purer. Even my injured consciousness has recovered quite a bit. However, I still don't know what changes this origin energy will bring to me! "
Shen Xiaoyi did not understand any of this. After hearing Lin Bai say that this thing was of great use, she did not take it to heart. She pestered Lin Bai to sleep with him.
He didn't say anything for the whole night. The eldest son finally woke up after dawn. He felt a splitting headache. He stretched lazily and recalled what happened last night. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He was already too old for this. Drinking wine with an injured junior for an entire night, he wondered what Lin Bai looked like now.
Just as he was about to go out and visit Lin Bai, he heard Lin Bai's voice from outside. He pushed open the door and took a deep breath. Not only did this kid not look like he had a hangover, he seemed even more vigorous than before. There was even a sharp glint in his eyes. It was clear that his power had reached a new level!
"You brat, you've eaten some poor quality aphrodisiac, why are you being so fierce today?!" The eldest son was so surprised that he could not care about the dignity of his elders, and so he asked casually.
He waved Xuanyuan mirror and said in a soft voice, "Last night, when I went back, I discovered that this magic tool could actually draw the heaven and earth origin energy into my body. Not only could it help me recover my magic power, it could also nourish my spiritual sense.
"Nourish spiritual sense? Lin Bai, this divine intent is the weakest of things, you must not touch that mess. If anything goes wrong, it will cause your soul to scatter! " The eldest son had a surprised expression on his face when he heard Lin Bai's words.
The matter of nourishing the spiritual sense was indeed something he had heard about in the ancient scrolls of his sect. However, due to the fact that it was too old and the heaven and earth's elemental energy was becoming scarce, there were fewer and fewer peaceful places. Thus, this sect had been lost long ago. The eldest son was afraid that Lin Bai wouldn't know the importance of spiritual sense and would act recklessly, thus he suggested to him.
"Martial Uncle, don't worry. I know what I'm doing, and I definitely won't do it recklessly!" Lin Bai nodded. After borrowing the Xuanyuan mirror's power to convert the heaven and earth origin energy into mana, that mana seemed to be very different from before. But in reality, he had no choice but to slowly study it.
"Be careful, don't do anything rash!" After the eldest son mentioned this, he extended his hand and received the Xuanyuan mirror from Lin Bai. When he saw the appearance of the Xuanyuan mirror, he immediately sucked in a breath of cold air and looked at Lin Bai with fear and shock, "This is the treasure of China, the Xuanyuan mirror?!"
"Martial Uncle, you really have good eyesight." Lin Bai gave his eldest son a thumbs up and continued, "What is it? Martial Uncle, have you also heard about the matter of Xuanyuan mirror?"
"Xuanyuan mirror is something left behind by Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan Yuan. It can reflect all things in the world and it can also be the master of destiny. How could I have not heard of this kind of matter that has been passed down throughout the ages in our world of photographic skills? It's just that I didn't expect to meet him here." After the eldest son held onto Xuanyuan mirror for a while, he then softly asked, "What method did you use to help him absorb the heaven and earth origin energy?"
"Method?" It's useless for me to use any technique. I can just hold it and absorb it! " Lin Bai looked at the eldest son in confusion and replied softly.
Hearing Lin Bai's words, the eldest son frowned. After testing it a few more times, he realized that the item was in his hands and had no effect on himself that Lin Bai had mentioned about absorbing the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.
"This thing is truly strange. Could it be that it is as the ancient books say, a person who is able to take orders from the heavens, and can only be used in the hands of a Heaven's Mandate?!" The eldest son frowned as he stared at Lin Bai with an incomparably strange expression. He softly asked, "Did your master ever tell you about the matter of the Mandate of Heaven's child?!"
The eldest son, upon seeing Lin Bai like this, fell into deep thought. After thinking for a while, he still didn't have any countermeasures against it, so he could only advise Lin Bai to use this item to the minimum so that the heaven and earth origin energy would not appear and fill his body, making it difficult to vent. Or perhaps, it was because of the abnormal damage to his divine sense while the heaven and earth origin energy was nourishing!
However, no matter how much Lin Bai asked about the matter of the Mandate of Heaven's son, the eldest son wouldn't speak of it. The way he looked at Lin Bai was even weirder than before, as well as a little uneasy.
