Suddenly, just as Shi Ling finished his words, a soft, frisky sound came from behind Shi Ling. Shi Ling's eyes opened wide and he immediately stood up and looked towards the source of the sound. Then, he saw more than a dozen people walking out of the forest not far behind him.
When Shi Ling saw this, his eyebrows creased. He immediately held the Black Wood Sword in his hand and became alert. Could it be that other people were hiding nearby?
Shi Ling's steps couldn't help but slightly retreat while he was thinking. It wasn't because Shi Ling was afraid of them, but mainly because he was in a weak phase. No matter if it was his mana or physical strength, he had already consumed them very heavily.
Thinking about that, Shi Ling's eyes slightly squinted as he tightened his grip on the Black Wood Sword. Then, in the next moment, he saw the heavily injured and dying people.
Shi Ling roughly glanced over these people as if they were just normal disciples. When these disciples saw Shi Ling, they all became alert as if they were afraid that Shi Ling would suddenly attack them.
It seemed that he had been injured by the sword aura. Amongst these people, his strength could be considered the strongest, with a cultivation at the early stage of the Body Tempering, and the majority of the other people were at the perfection-stage of the Spirit Accumulation or at the mastery level of the Spirit Accumulation. There were even a few who had reached the initial stage of the Spirit Accumulation.
The young man clasped his hands at Shi Ling and said, "Senior, we have no ill intentions. We are only here to enter the temple and recover our injuries, we will leave soon, and we will definitely not disturb senior brother. I hope senior brother can help us and let us pass."
As he said that, their gazes all turned to the temple behind Shi Ling, and the young man said: "Of course, if senior is interested in the Jade Plate of Promotion on us, after we enter the temple and replenish ourselves, when we come out, we will definitely give the jade plate to you with both hands, I hope senior does not make things difficult for us."
However, no one objected, because they had seen the battle between Shi Ling and Qian Ziming just now. They knew that Shi Ling was very powerful, and even if all of them were to join forces, they would still not be a match for Shi Ling. Therefore, they could only admit defeat.
However, Shi Ling, after understanding the situation, stabbed the Black Wood Sword in his hand into the ground. He then looked around at these people and said: "Which faction are you from?"
It was still the same young man from before, and he said: "I am Qiu Rann. We are all ordinary disciples with ordinary Spirit Sword Sect. We did not join any factions."
As Qiu Rann spoke, he had one hand covering his abdomen. Shi Ling looked over and found that more and more blood was flowing out, and the other party's face was also getting paler and paler. At this time, Shi Ling let out a sigh of relief, looked back at the temple behind him and said, "There are already people in this temple, so you guys will have to wait a while before entering."
Shi Ling's words were tantamount to telling these people that he would not make things difficult for them. Qiu Rann was elated. He cupped his hands towards Shi Ling and said, "Thank you senior brother."
Immediately, he closed his eyes and fell down. At this time, the group of disciples surrounding him all came over and revealed worried expressions. One by one, they shouted, "Senior brother Qiu Rann, Senior brother Qiu Rann."
When Shi Ling read up to this point, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face, and then he walked over to him. Immediately, he ripped open Qiu Rann's shirt, revealing a bloody wound underneath. At this moment, some of the disciples around them wanted to stop him after seeing Shi Ling's actions, but Shi Ling's words were transmitted over, "Find some cloth and bring it over."
When the disciples heard those words, they naturally guessed that Shi Ling might be trying to heal their senior brother and all revealed grateful expressions. Soon after, they saw that some disciples directly tore off their clothes and gave them to Shi Ling as a band of cloth.
After Shi Ling received the cloth belt, he pressed his fingers on a few acupuncture points on Qiu Rann's body and stopped the bleeding. Then, he took out a white healing pill from his Heart Ring and crushed the pill into powder and smeared it on Qiu Rann's wound.
Afterwards, Shi Ling took out a small medicine bottle. Inside the bottle was a green medicinal liquid filled with a refreshing medicinal fragrance. Shi Ling put the bottle next to Qiu Rann's mouth and poured the solution into his mouth.
After doing all of this, Shi Ling helped him up and sat cross-legged with him. Immediately, Shi Ling clasped his hands together and then sent waves of Fa Li into Shi Ling's body to catalyze the pills in his body.
In the eyes of the crowd, Qiu Rann's injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, the group of people revealed joyous expressions as they looked at Shi Ling with increasingly grateful gazes.
Not long after, after Shi Ling had activated all of the power in his body, he asked Shi Ling to lie down and gave these disciples a bottle of Healing Pills. Although it was only the lowest level, it was equivalent to a life saving pill for these disciples.
Some of them even kowtowed, but Shi Ling just walked away. He didn't want them to kneel down at all, so he sat down under a big tree, crossed his legs, and said to them, "If any of you are slightly injured, you should spread out to the surroundings and observe what is happening in other directions. When the time comes, no one will come near us."
At this moment, the disciples looked at Shi Ling as if they were looking at their new parents. They didn't reject Shi Ling's words at all, so they all stood up and spread out in all directions of the temple. As they healed their injuries, they observed their surroundings.
When Shi Ling saw this scene, he smiled. He wanted this kind of effect, so he closed his eyes and threw another White Spirit Pill into his mouth, starting to recover.
In the following period of time, basically no one was approaching anymore. With the help of White Spirit Pill, Shi Ling was able to recover about seventy to eighty percent of his strength. At this time, even if he met a few experts at the early stage of Body Tempering, he would still have the strength to fight.
As for those disciples that were severely injured, under the healing pill Shi Ling gave them, their injuries had also healed quite a bit. However, they did not have much combat power. In the end, they still needed to enter the temple to replenish themselves.
The materials inside seemed to be inexhaustible. No matter who entered, they could absorb a large amount of Stellar Source Fruit s, Wishing Spirit Bead s and White Spirit Pill s, but the same person could not enter the same temple twice within a week.
At this moment, Shi Ling opened his eyes and looked at the temple. He felt that it had been a while since he last opened his eyes. Why were Yeling and the other girls still inside, weren't they afraid that the temple would reject them?
As he was thinking this, he saw Qiu Rann walk over to Shi Ling. Judging from his complexion, he had obviously recovered quite well. When Qiu Rann arrived in front of Shi Ling, he knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you for saving me, senior brother. I am very grateful."
These people were really interesting, kneeling down when they had nothing to do. At once, he waved his hand towards Qiu Rann and said: "We are all brothers from the same sect, it is only right for us to help each other, not to mention we are all ordinary disciples, we don't have any factions, we must work together, right?"
However, when he looked at Shi Ling, the gratitude in his eyes did not fade in the slightest. Perhaps, in Shi Ling's eyes, it was just a small effort on his part to casually save Shi Ling's life. However, to him, it was the same as saving his life.
Qiu Rann was a person who distinguished kindness and grudges. At the same time, he was also someone who revered strength. So, at this moment, when he was facing Wu Tie, his face was full of reverence.
Qiu Rann also looked over to see a group of women walking out from the temple. Each of them had quite a good temperament, especially the two girls in the middle. Although their childish looks had yet to disappear, their actions were filled with the aura of someone in power, giving people an impulse to bow down and worship them.
Shi Ling stood up at this moment, and Yeling, who had also noticed Shi Ling, immediately walked over to Shi Ling. At the same time, she looked around and said, "Where's Qian Ziming?"
Shi Ling shrugged with a smile and said, "He saw that I was scared, so he ran away."
After Yeling heard this, she rolled her eyes at Shi Ling in annoyance. She poked Shi Ling's chest with her jade-like hand and said, "You're the one who likes to boast."
Even though Yeling didn't believe what Shi Ling said, and that Qian Ziming would scare her away, Yeling still believed that if it wasn't for Shi Ling, Qian Ziming wouldn't have left like this. She had experienced Qian Ziming's skills before and knew of Qian Ziming's power, but even so, Shi Ling still beat them back.
At this moment, Qiu Rann walked over and cupped his fist towards Yeling. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Miss Yeling."
After that, the scattered disciples all hurried over to pay their respects. After all, Yeling's status in the Spirit Sword Sect was there, and if she still wanted to mix in with the Spirit Sword Sect later on, such a person was not to be offended.
However, Yeling glanced at these disciples and asked curiously, "Who are you?"
Shi Ling said at this moment: "They count as my new brothers."
After Yeling heard this, she just gave an "oh" to Qiu Rann, but did not say anything about this. She then heard Shi Ling wave his hand at the group and said: "Alright, you all can enter the temple now, oh, right, people with jade plate can only bring up to five people without jade plate at most. Furthermore, the number of people who go in increases, but the amount of supplies will not increase, so, those who have jade plate can think of who to bring in."
The group nodded and hurriedly walked inside.
At this time, Shi Ling looked at Yeling again. Sensing the aura that was being emitted from Yeling's body, he smiled and said, "You broke through to the large success stage of the Body Tempering?"
Yeling pursed her lips and smiled, but her eyes suddenly changed. The long sword at her waist flew out and was caught by her, pointing it at Shi Ling.
When Shi Ling saw this, he was stunned for a moment. He didn't know what the girl in front of him was going to do.
A faint smile appeared on Yeling's face. "Previously, you dared to take advantage of me just because you bullied me. Now that I've broken through, let's see how I deal with you!"
Shi Ling's eyes twitched when he heard this. This girl still remembered this. He was speechless and immediately said: "But don't forget, who saved you before? Could it be that you want to repay kindness with hatred? "
Yeling refused to give in and said, "One yard, one yard. I just want to give you a good beating right now. What can you do to me?"
Shi Ling dodged and dodged the attack, but Yeling was unrelenting in her momentum and waved her sword at Shi Ling. Shi Ling dodged while saying: "Dong Hua Yeling, stop! If you don't stop now, don't blame me for being impolite. Let me tell you, if it wasn't for the sake of Donghua Taiyi, watch how I'll spank your little butt! "
Yeling was just messing around with Shi Ling in the beginning and wasn't serious at all. However, when she heard Shi Ling mention her brother, her eyes immediately blazed with anger. She shouted at Shi Ling, "You still dare to mention my brother? Let's see if I'll chop you to pieces today!"
Although it had not reached the First Level Sword Qi, its might was not to be underestimated. When Shi Ling saw this, he secretly complained in his heart, why did he mention Donghua Taiyi? Wasn't he just looking for excitement?
Now that he saw that the little girl actually wanted to fight him to the death, he didn't hesitate anymore and directly threw out the Black Wood Sword in his hand to counter Yeling's long sword.
Bang. Even though Yeling's sword was very slender, which was very different from Shi Ling's gigantic Black Wood Sword, the moment their swords clashed, Shi Ling's body was jolted back several steps.
Inwardly sighing, he thought to himself, Yeling's Fa Li is so dense at the moment, and the Sword Qi superimposed on her, making it so that he would not be able to benefit from her sword at all.
At this time, Yeling's figure disappeared like a ghost. When Shi Ling saw this, the Black Wood Sword slashed at him.
Ding. There was another light sound. Yeling, who suddenly appeared beside Shi Ling, slightly raised her lips after the exchange between her and Shi Ling. Afterwards, she released a powerful mana and sent Shi Ling flying again.
After reaching the Large Success of the Body Tempering Realm, Yeling's strength and speed had already far surpassed the Small Success of the Body Tempering Realm. Without any exaggeration, an expert at the Large Success of the Body Tempering Realm was equivalent to ten cultivators at the Small Success of the Body Tempering Realm combined.
Although Shi Ling's reaction was very good, he still couldn't bear her violent storm-like attacks. He was immediately knocked back several steps by her hand.
With another light dong sound, the Black Wood Sword in Shi Ling's hand was directly sent flying by Yeling's sword. The Black Wood Sword forcefully crushed a rock in the distance, stirring up a cloud of smoke.
However, at this time, Yeling pressed Shi Ling down to the ground. She stuck her sword beside Shi Ling's face and said, "Are you convinced?"
Shi Ling looked at the sword beside him and Yeling sitting on his body. What else could he do at this moment? He could only say obediently: "I give up."
Yeling pursed her lips and smiled with a proud look on her face. After that, her big eyes spun around before lowering her head and giving Shi Ling a kiss on his face. Shi Ling's eyes widened as he stared at the beautiful girl sitting on top of him in a daze.
"Like I said before, you saved my life and avenged my brother, so I'll take care of you. Now that I've defeated you, it can be considered as taking revenge for my brother. As for this kiss, just treat it as compensation when you saved me."
