1036: Chapter 297: Subtle Influence 1036: Chapter 297: Subtle Influence “Um?” Ji Feixue didn’t understand for a moment.
Su He took a step forward, stuffed the Bronze Bell into her hands, and, taking advantage of the momentum, embraced her waist.
He felt the softness in his arms as he leapt into the inheritance rift.
Ji Feixue’s mind went blank for a moment as the bell suddenly entered her hand.
When she touched it, she uncontrollably felt a connection through their bloodlines—even though it now belonged to Su He.
But the scholar had refined it for his daughter, leaving something inside that would suit her, which remained unchanged, or perhaps hadn’t changed much?
After all, they were originally one family, so adapting to Su He might not have altered its original state.
Just as she connected with the Bronze Bell, she felt her waist being embraced.
She looked up to see Su He holding her as he jumped into the inheritance rift.
Before she could change her expression, Su He had already let go of her as he landed and transformed into a Turtle Body.
Membership expired…
It turned out that his human form’s time had reached its limit.
Su He lay on the ground, revealing his weakness.
He had dared to snatch the Bronze Bell outright because the Formation of the Free Bodhisattva was right next to the two rifts.
Upon exiting the Formation, he could immediately enter the rift.
At this moment, Su He felt completely soft and utterly exhausted, gazing weakly at Ji Feixue like a dead pig.
Ji Feixue remained silent for a moment.
How useful could this Turtle’s human form be if it only endured such a short while?
It couldn’t even support one battle.
From the star to this place, he rested along the way, only revealing his human form just before breaking through the space.
He hadn’t fought much before the Turtle weakened.
Ignoring Su He, if she hadn’t seen him consider her at a critical moment, given his flirtatious behavior just now, the Immortal Sword would have already beheaded him!
Ji Feixue held the Bronze Bell in her hand, suddenly unsure of what to do.
Her gaze flickered before looking at Su He, her voice cold, “Close your eyes!”
Huh?
Su He was startled, then delighted.
“Taking back the Bronze Bell, rewarding me?
Kissing me?”
He hesitated, “Maybe…
wait until I return to my human form…”
Swoosh!
A Sword Ring sounded, and a flash of Sword Light passed by, instantly creating a silver-white brightness that dazzled Su He’s eyes, momentarily blinding him to his surroundings.
All he could see was the sword, only the silver-white.
Then, he felt a stream of True Yuan invading his body, Ji Feixue’s True Yuan, with which Su He was extremely familiar.
Moreover, this time Ji Feixue used the same method of compatible True Yuan transfer as before, with no rejection from his body whatsoever.
His body accepted it more swiftly than his thoughts.
Without Su He’s control, his Meridians had already opened up to Ji Feixue.
Before Su He could react, Ji Feixue’s True Yuan had already poured into his Dantian.
At this moment his True Yuan was depleted, and his Dantian was empty.
Only the Boundary Pearl slowly rotated, surrounded by the Outer Boundary Bead Star Ring.
Ji Feixue’s True Yuan settled in Su He’s Dantian, but it wasn’t there to replenish his lost energy, nor was it waiting to condense and entangle once more; instead, it solidified into a Talisman next to it.
Afterward, the Talisman wriggled and transformed into a pearl, beginning to orbit around the Boundary Pearl like it had gained an extra satellite.
Ji Feixue continued to pour her True Yuan into it relentlessly, constantly enriching it.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the flow of Ji Feixue’s True Yuan ceased.
Then, a faint sound as if something was being withdrawn from above their heads.
Then came the Sword Ring sound, and Su He’s vision slowly returned.
Ji Feixue’s expression was cold, unchanging as she glanced at Su He and said crisply, “This True Yuan Pearl is not of your own True Yuan, it won’t be consumed by Instant Brilliance, nor will it sustain your human form.
It’s kept only for protection; use it when True Yuan is depleted to potentially save your life.”
Normally, Sacred Beasts, particularly the Dragon Turtle Tribe, never face True Yuan depletion unless they excessively use their Divine Skills; otherwise, their body’s true essence should never be depleted no matter what.
But with this Turtle Body, True Yuan depletion occurred frequently.
The rarely used Instant Brilliance by common Dragon Turtles had been witnessed several times by him, and he was experienced.
It was difficult enough to condense a human form, and yet it consumed a significant amount of Yuan.
This situation would at least need all four bodies to converge and simultaneously nourish the human form for him to reverse this.
The greatest waste of True Yuan at the moment was actually compensating for the deficiencies in the human forms of Azure Dragon and White Tiger.
Perhaps Ji Feixue herself hadn’t realized that one day, she would actually consider others.
Su He’s eyes brightened, then he joyfully exclaimed, “Thanks, wife!”
Life-saving method +1
Ji Feixue neither agreed nor disagreed, her voice still cold, “In the future when you go out, be prepared with Spirit Stones.”
True Yuan is not merely the Power of the World; in fact, pure True Yuan and the Power of the World are unrelated.
Regularly carrying Spirit Stones to refine and replenish True Yuan is an essential method for a Cultivator.
Before Su He condenses his other two forms, being an ordinary Cultivator might not be a bad choice.
Speaking of the other two bodies, Ji Feixue’s mind inexplicably flashed an image of a humanoid creature with a tiger head, feathered wings, and dragon tail—unless Su He’s last two bodies directly condense into Sacred Beasts, they would likely obstruct the human form progression just like the Peacock Body.
It was natural for characteristics to emerge.
Unexpectedly… this appearance isn’t repulsive?
If it were a fluffy white tiger head… her hands almost moved instinctively.
Su He, unaware of Ji Feixue’s fantasies, feigned sleep, a sliver of his consciousness resting in the Inner World.
Observing a Toad seated on a chair with legs crossed reading a book, he asked, “What was that just now?”
“What do you mean ‘what’?” The Toad blinked, clueless.
Su He looked down at it, “Just now!
Above my head!
The swishing sound of something being withdrawn!”
The Toad bit its lip and remained silent; the foxes of this era were easy to deceive, but Ji Feixue was too fierce, and she might really smack it to death, letting it revive slowly.
“Talisman?” Su He asked.
The Toad frantically shook its head, “No.”
“Magical Treasure?”
“No!”
