Chapter 94

Yiya!

As the snow-white little beast saw the dewdrop, its nose twitched, and it took a light sniff. Then, it showed a look of great joy and quickly extended its white paws to grab the dewdrop, swallowing it in one bite. As a surge of life essence flowed through its body, the little creature closed its eyes in bliss, looking as if a child was savoring honey, with a face full of happiness.

"Is this thing really that good?" the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow muttered incessantly on the side.

After the essence of the dewdrop was absorbed into its body, the snow-white little beast seemed to undergo some inexplicable change. Its snow-white fur seemed to have gained a bit more luster, and one could faintly feel that the life essence within its body had become more vigorous.

Yiya!

After a short while, the snow-white little beast opened its eyes, revealing a gentle glow, and stared at Xiao Yun with a pleading look, making a yiya sound.

"More?" Seeing the expression of the snow-white little beast, Xiao Yun was speechless.

Yiya!

The snow-white little beast nodded, looking very earnest. Its gem-like eyes were fixed on Xiao Yun, filled with hope, as if it was drooling over the dewdrop and wanted to eat as much as possible.

"Sorry, I don't have any more." Xiao Yun spread his palms and said, "Go down."

After saying that, he pushed the snow-white little beast off his shoulder.

The snow-white little beast landed, but then with a swoosh, it leaped back onto Xiao Yun's shoulder, making continuous yiya sounds.

Xiao Yun rolled his eyes, finding it somewhat amusing that this little thing was clinging to him.

This reminded Xiao Yun of the scene when the purple wisteria used to steal the dewdrops condensed by his martial soul every day.

"Xiao Yun, take it in," the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow said telepathically from the side.

"Take it in?" Xiao Yun looked puzzled. This is a glutton. What if I take it in?

However, he quickly understood the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's intentions.

This snow-white little beast seemed to have great powers and an extraordinary origin. If it followed him, it would be an additional helper.

"This creature has an extraordinary bloodline. I suspect it is a powerful ancient mythical beast," the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow said.

"An ancient mythical beast?" Xiao Yun was taken aback. "Stronger than you?"

The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow rolled its eyes. "The demon race has great powers, each with its own strengths. How can you easily compare them?"

There is no first in literature, no second in martial arts. Xiao Yun understood this principle.

"Since that's the case, taking it in is also fine." Xiao Yun nodded, then narrowed his eyes and looked at the snow-white little beast on his shoulder, smiling. "Big brother doesn't have those things now, but I'll give you some in the future, okay?"

Yiya!

The snow-white little beast nodded repeatedly, looking very happy. Its long eyelashes fluttered, making it look very charming.

If it weren't for its furry body, others might have thought it was a baby.

Seeing the snow-white little beast's obedient appearance, Xiao Yun smiled and walked forward.

"Xiao Yun, what is that green bead of yours?" the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow asked curiously.

"Secret." Xiao Yun smiled.

"Damn." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow rolled its eyes. "You've said that at least ten times."

It had asked about this before, but Xiao Yun always kept silent.

"Can you give me one to taste?" the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow said.

"Sure." Xiao Yun said, "But all the fire crystal corals will be mine."

"About that..." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow looked hesitant.

Xiao Yun's mind moved, and a fire-red bead appeared in his mind sea.

This was the dewdrop from the tender leaves of the fire essence branch of his martial soul.

"Such a rich life essence, and it contains fire essence. This thing is too amazing, rarer than a spirit pill!" Seeing the dewdrop, the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's eyes gleamed with excitement, and it quickly extended its claws to grab it, saying, "Give it to me quickly."

Swoosh!

Before the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow could grab the dewdrop, the snow-white little beast had already snatched it away.

Gululu!

The snow-white little beast immediately swallowed the dewdrop with a glow of fire.

"You damn thing." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow rolled its eyes. "You little brat actually dared to snatch the Lord's thing."

Pfft!

The snow-white little beast rolled its eyes, moved its small paw, and a white light like a blade slashed towards the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow.

"This seems to contain some mysterious aura." Xiao Yun's eyes narrowed, carefully sensing the snow-white little beast's attack.

The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow was thrown away by the white light, unable to match the snow-white little beast.

"The Lord will swallow you." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow, enraged, opened its mouth to attack.

"Stop it." Xiao Yun said, "I have another one here."

He took out another dewdrop and handed it to the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow.

He had stored a few of these dewdrops and had not used them.

"Another one?" The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow quickly grabbed it and swallowed it.

"Indeed, it is life essence, which can help me recover faster." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's eyes lit up after swallowing the dewdrop.

After swallowing the dewdrop, the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's essence became more vigorous, and it seemed to have gained some vitality.

Originally, the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's physical body was destroyed, and it was considered dead, with its vitality dissipated. To revive, it needed vitality, which made the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow excited. This life essence was something it lacked the most.

The snow-white little beast's eyes narrowed, and it kept rubbing its face against Xiao Yun's cheek, as if trying to please him. Clearly, the fire essence dewdrop had a significant effect on the snow-white little beast, making it want to win Xiao Yun's favor.

"Xiao Yun, where did you get these things?" The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow asked excitedly after consuming the fire essence bead.

"As long as I absorb enough fire essence, I can naturally obtain these things," Xiao Yun smiled.

"Is it that amazing?" The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow was somewhat incredulous.

Xiao Yun nodded and said, "So, don't fight me for these things."

"As long as you can give me these life essence fire essence beads, that's enough." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow laughed.

The effect of these beads was much stronger than fire essence.

Xiao Yun walked to the edge of the fire crystal coral, and his mind moved. The martial soul in his mind sea trembled slightly, and a branch extended, piercing into the fire crystal coral, emitting a green light to absorb the fire essence.

Gululu!

Seeing the martial soul branch, the snow-white little beast swallowed, its gem-like eyes gleaming with greed, wishing to take a bite. However, seeing Xiao Yun staring at it, it shrank its neck and covered its eyes with its small paw, trying to pretend it didn't see.

As the martial soul absorbed the fire essence, large areas of fire crystal coral turned into nothingness.

At this moment, the branch of the martial soul in his mind sea became stronger.

With the supply of fire essence, the Purple Flame Martial Soul underwent a qualitative transformation.

After an hour, the fire crystal corals were all absorbed by Xiao Yun. At the same time, a new leaf sprouted on the fire essence branch of the martial soul, making two fire essence leaves. A misty aura was forming, indicating that a dewdrop was about to condense.

While Xiao Yun absorbed the fire essence from the fire crystal corals, the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow was also absorbing the fire essence.

It was a fire attribute holy beast, and fire was its life essence. Absorbing more could increase its strength.

Of course, if there were soul-enhancing medicines, the speed would be even faster.

When the essence of the fire sea was almost completely absorbed, Xiao Yun and the Swallowing Heaven Sparrow left.

The snow-white little beast followed behind, determined to stay with Xiao Yun.

"Pity this little thing can't speak." Seeing its cute appearance, Xiao Yun shook his head.

Since the snow-white little beast appeared here, it must be familiar with this area. If it could speak, he could ask about things here, which might give him a chance to obtain some inheritance or treasures.

Yiya!

The snow-white little beast seemed to understand what Xiao Yun was thinking. It made some gestures and tried to pull Xiao Yun in a certain direction.

Seeing this, Xiao Yun smiled. It seemed this little creature was quite intelligent!

Xiao Yun followed the snow-white little beast and finally stopped at an ancient ruin.

It was a dilapidated hall, now a pile of ruins, with bones scattered everywhere.

"Is this an ancient sect?" Xiao Yun's eyes narrowed. Although it was now a pile of ruins, one could still see the outline of an ancient sect, with various halls and traces of battles, all proving this.

"Since it's a sect, there should be some things left behind." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's eyes narrowed, and it began to search the surroundings.

The place was already in ruins, with the ancients turned into skeletons, and even their weapons were almost decayed.

Xiao Yun kept searching, hoping to find something.

Finally, in the ruins of a hall, he sensed a vague fluctuation.

"This is a broken weapon." Xiao Yun dug out an object from the ruins.

It was a long spear, nine feet long, with a red body and fish-scale patterns.

Upon closer inspection, one could see some fine patterns.

"This is a spirit weapon." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow came over, examined it, and said, "Judging by the aura, it's not an ordinary spirit weapon. Unfortunately, it's damaged, and many runes have been worn away, making it hard to display its original power."

"A spirit weapon?" Xiao Yun's heart stirred upon hearing this.

Such weapons were not something ordinary people could have.

In the entire Ziyun County, he had never seen such a weapon, showing how extraordinary spirit weapons were.

Even in the ancient families of Fengyue Kingdom, such spirit weapons were rare.

"Hey, there's someone."

"It's that kid, he's really not dead."

"What's in his hand?" Just as Xiao Yun was happily examining the long spear, a surprised voice drifted into his ears. He saw two cultivators slowly approaching the ruins.

These two were the elders of the Red Fire Gang.

"Is that a spirit weapon?" The elder of the Red Fire Gang, who was at the True Essence late stage, narrowed his eyes and said.

"It seems so." The other elder also looked excited. "Ha, we're really lucky this time!"

After saying that, the two walked towards Xiao Yun confidently.

"Red Fire Gang people?" Xiao Yun's eyebrows raised, and he turned his head to look. Seeing the two elders, his eyes gradually turned cold. He vaguely remembered that when entering the Tianyan Relic, these two had been aggressive, trying to force him to go to his death.

"Perfect timing." The Swallowing Heaven Sparrow's eyes narrowed. "Now is the perfect time to deal with them."

Yiya!

The snow-white little beast looked up at Xiao Yun, as if asking him something.

"Just two despicable people." Xiao Yun said.

But when he looked at the two from the Red Fire Gang, there was still a hint of coldness in his eyes.

If he hadn't had some abilities, he would have died on that iron bridge.

How could he not seek revenge for this?
