Chapter 35

Meixue was unaware of the anticipation in Xiaolong’s gaze. At this moment, he was enduring the most excruciating torment of his life. As the silver petals turned to powder and entered his body, he had almost completely lost consciousness.

Cold, endless cold, as if he had fallen into an infinite abyss, neither touching the sky above nor the ground below, only the unending cold relentlessly eroding his body.

Where was this place? Why was he here? Who was he? As he continued to fall, even his sense of self was fading, and Meixue could not answer these questions. He could only let the endless cold mercilessly erode his body.

He fell deeper and deeper, beyond darkness, beyond distance. This abyss seemed to have no end, or perhaps it would only end when Meixue was completely devoured.

A deathly silence, a cold that brought despair, his body began to lose sensation bit by bit.

First his feet, then his legs, hands, and chest. This inhuman silence slowly and irresistibly devoured Meixue’s body, inching closer to its final goal.

After what felt like three lifetimes to Meixue, this unbearable cold finally froze his heart, limbs, and body, leaving only the part where his last consciousness resided.

If Meixue could see his body now, he would find that he was completely enveloped in silver crystals, sealed within a silver crystal over three meters tall.

His consciousness began to blur, a feeling as if it would shatter at any moment swept over his entire body. This was not an illusion but a sign that the power of the Nine Abyss Seed was about to attack the last remnant of his consciousness.

Victory was within reach. The law of the Nine Abyss Seed, which had successfully invaded Meixue’s body, saw the light of final victory. It only needed to take one more step, to erode Meixue’s last self-awareness, and then Meixue would disappear from the world forever, replaced by the resurrected Nine Abyss Seed "Senro."

However, when the power of the Nine Abyss Seed, the original life force of the Nine Abyss Flower that Meixue had consumed and which had lain dormant in his body, entered the place where Meixue’s consciousness resided, his mind, it saw an incredibly vast and magnificent world.

In that world, there were dragons connecting heaven and earth, controlling the stars; there were colossal beasts that soared and roamed for thousands of miles; there were nine-tailed foxes running on green hills; there were three-legged golden birds perched on the branches of the Fusang tree at the place of sunrise; there were giants who chased the sun.

That was the golden age before the Heavenly Dao shattered, a world where witches and demons coexisted, and sages and deities truly existed.

The name of that world was "Honghuang," the world that gave birth to the first book of the universe, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas."

The silver crystal, which had rashly entered this world, hovered in shock, then saw a pair of enormous eyes, ancient eyes containing the power of the sun, moon, and stars.

These were the eyes of the Dragon of the Honghuang, the supreme power that governed the rise and fall of the sun, moon, and stars.

"Be his." The previous master of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas," the current guardian of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas," thus decided the fate of the silver crystal with its wondrous power.

"Clang!" Without any room for refusal, the silver crystal from the Nine Abyss World shattered into countless pieces, scattering in Meixue’s spiritual world and fusing with him completely, just like the young princess of the Golden-Haired Nine-Tailed Fox who had accidentally entered this place.

However, the silver crystal did not have the good fortune of the innocent and lovely young princess of the Golden-Haired Nine-Tailed Fox. It was forcibly fused into Meixue’s body, all its life essence and laws were taken. The consciousness of the Nine Abyss Seed "Senro" was completely erased from the world.

What remained was only the purest "power," sent by the Dragon of the Honghuang into Meixue’s body. Although his current body could not yet fully bear the power of the Nine Abyss Seed, it was only a matter of time.

This was the Dragon of the Honghuang’s reward to Meixue, and the "Classic of Mountains and Seas"’s recognition of Meixue. Everything Meixue had done for the "Classic of Mountains and Seas," everything he had contributed, had not been forgotten.

Having chosen the "Classic of Mountains and Seas," he was also favored by the reborn "Classic of Mountains and Seas," and he was never alone.

"Ah!" Meixue returned to the real world, his body burning with a high fever as he painfully fell onto the bed.

"Ah!" The little fox, noticing Meixue’s condition, was in a panic, helpless to do anything as Meixue suffered.

What happened? He was fine just a moment ago, why did he suddenly become like this? In the little fox’s eyes, Meixue had just suddenly spaced out, as if deep in thought, and then suddenly changed.

"Bang!" In a cloud of green smoke, the little fox transformed into the form of the Nine-Tailed Fox Princess. Although this might reveal her true identity to Meixue, she couldn’t care less at the moment.

If she couldn’t even take care of her lover, what kind of Golden-Haired Nine-Tailed Fox Princess would she be?

"This... this... and this... which one is better?" Qingqiu Jiuyue frantically pulled out several elixirs from her bosom.

These were all treasures from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan’s treasury, divine medicines said to be able to save anyone as long as they still had a breath of life. Each one was priceless.

But Qingqiu Jiuyue didn’t think about that. Seeing Meixue in pain, she was on the verge of tears, so she stuffed all the precious elixirs into Meixue’s mouth at once and anxiously waited for the results.

Unconsciously swallowing a large amount of precious elixirs, Meixue’s expression eased slightly, and his consciousness gradually returned from the haze.

No good! Seeing Meixue’s eyes blink, looking like he was about to wake up, Qingqiu Jiuyue quickly activated her transformation spell and instantly turned back into the little fox.

"Cough!" Meixue slowly opened his eyes, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling for a long time before remembering that he was now on Floating Mountain Tianqing.

"This reward is really deadly..." Feeling the intense burning sensation throughout his body, Meixue wondered if he had been rewarded or punished.

If it weren’t for the slight coolness spreading from his throat, slightly alleviating the burning pain, he would have given up long ago.

The feeling of his body burning was unbearable, a stark contrast to the previous cold. The extremes of cold and heat together made it a miracle that Meixue could still open his eyes.

As for the benefits, he saw none, and the so-called reward was nowhere to be found.

"Thirsty... water..." Meixue panted, wanting to drink water but finding that he couldn’t even move his fingers, having lost all his strength.

"Ah!" The little fox, seeing Meixue in pain, ran to the corner of the room, picked up a cup of water, and brought it to Meixue’s mouth.

The clear water dripped onto Meixue’s lips, a drop in the bucket against the burning sensation, but it was like a lifeline, making Meixue feel the presence of life.

"Little one... thank you... a little more..." After drinking all the water in the little fox’s cup, Meixue asked for another cup.

The little fox quickly fetched another cup, her efforts and dedication noted by Meixue.

What a considerate little one. Having it by his side during his illness was a great blessing in his misfortune.

After drinking ten cups of water, Meixue’s thirst finally subsided, and the slight coolness in his throat gradually spread, dispelling the terrible fever.

Finally regaining a bit of strength, Meixue managed to sit up from the bed and held the little fox, who had been trying to help him, in his arms.

"Thank you, little one."

Truly grateful for the little fox’s care, Meixue kissed her forehead to express his thanks.

"Ah!" The little fox, completely taken by surprise by Meixue’s sudden action, stiffened for a moment before realizing what had happened.

Kissed! Kissed! Kissed! Kissed! Kissed! Kissed!

Kissed by Meixue! Kissed by Meixue! Kissed by Meixue! Kissed by Meixue! Kissed by Meixue! Kissed by Meixue!

The little fox suddenly jumped out of Meixue’s arms and, like a drunk, stumbled around the bed, her wobbly steps making Meixue wonder if his fever had somehow infected this adorable little creature.

But he didn’t have to worry for long, as the overjoyed little fox soon jumped up and, blushing, ran out of the room.

So lucky! She couldn’t stay by Meixue’s side anymore; she had to go out and run a few laps happily.

"Ah!" That was the cute and joyful call of a young fox in the throes of spring.

At the same time, in the palace at the top of Floating Mountain, Qingqiu Jiuyue, who was learning immortal techniques from the Black Fox Elder Qingqiu Xuanming, smiled like a lady.

"Hehe!"

The princess seemed to be in a good mood today. Qingqiu Xuanming, who was always by Qingqiu Jiuyue’s side to protect her, felt that his life had suddenly become much more valuable, and he redoubled his efforts to teach Qingqiu Jiuyue, determined to make her the most elegant lady in the demon race.

"Really lucky to have the little one around this time." As Meixue recovered from his severe illness and changed his clothes, he noticed a layer of disgusting stains on his skin, not sure what they were.

After washing his entire body, Meixue found that his skin had become much smoother than before, and all the marks from his past alchemy sessions had vanished without a trace.

No, it wasn’t just smoother; even the color of his skin had become softer, and his fingers felt elastic, with no stiffness at all.

Could this be the reward the Dragon of the Honghuang spoke of? Meixue sniffed his body and detected a faint, fresh lotus fragrance, even though he had never used any perfumes.

Well, let’s sigh at the ignorance of the young. Mobile users, please visit http://m.piaotia.net
