Chapter 920: Two Different Worlds
During these ten days, Luo Tian was like a dog plaster sticking close to Yi Yunmeng’s side.
As for Yi Yunmeng, she continued looking for the Blazing Sun Gra.s.s and other supplementary spiritual herbs to detoxify her Scarlet Heart Poison.
It is unknown if her luck was bad or that it was fated by the heavens, but it took a full ten days before she was able to gather all the herbs she needed.
During these ten days, she had been killing demonic beasts non-stop.
She originally thought Luo Tian’s breakthrough wasn’t fast, but she was completely wrong. Luo Tian’s breakthrough speed was beyond her imagination. He had broken through two minor realms in just ten days.
His cultivation level had already reached the Spirit Martial 7th rank.
She really wanted to know how Luo Tian could draw in energy from killing demonic beasts in order to increase his cultivation.
Although the lower realms were the foundation of all realms and gave birth to special individuals, she had never heard of anyone that could increase their cultivation by killing demonic beasts.
“It would be great if my little brother could be like him!”
She would often think of her brother’s problem.
Luo Tian’s cultivation speed had shocked her, but she often wondered if he could stabilize and grasp his powers after making breakthroughs like this.
Yi Yunmeng didn’t think this was possible.
Luo Tian’s breakthrough speed was too fast, so there was no time for him to grasp the power of his realm. She advised him several times, but Luo Tian didn’t listen to her. One cannot seek speed when it comes to cultivation. Martial cultivation is meant to cultivate the heart and one’s foundation. Only when one makes stable progress can one walk further on the path of the martial dao.
Continuously seeking fast breakthroughs will cause a person to eventually stop at a certain cultivation realm and be unable to progress anymore.
There were plenty of geniuses in the Ancient World, many of who cultivated even faster than Luo Tian. Their names resounded throughout the world when they were only teenagers, but many of them slowly faded into the background. The reason was very simple – they broke through too quickly early on and didn’t build a strong foundation. Therefore, it was extremely difficult for them to make further breakthroughs in their later years.
Luo Tian didn’t take her advice seriously because Yi Yunmeng didn’t know Luo Tian was different from normal people.
Luo Tian couldn’t explain either. He did feel moved by her actions because she was the first person ever since he transmigrated to give him guidance on cultivating. And she just happens to be the cold and aloof queen-like figure.
“Blazing Sun Gra.s.s, Fire Lotus Gra.s.s, Dragon Flame Flower… I have finally gathered them all.” Yi Yunmeng glanced at Luo Tian after saying that.
Luo Tian also looked at her.
After a brief second, Luo Tian chuckled, “Congratulations to my queen! You have finally gathered all the necessary spiritual herbs to get rid of your poison. You should quickly refine a pill to detoxify your poison. It will be too late if more killers from the Sky Devil Sect come.”
Luo Tian started heading back after saying that.
Yi Yunmeng was faintly stunned, “Where are you going?”
Luo Tian replied, “Back to the cave, right? I will protect you while you refine your antidote.”
Yi Yunmeng said, “The killers from the Sky Devil Sect most likely think I have left this place, so they won’t be coming anymore. I’m not in a rush to refine the antidote pill, either. The day is still early, so I can help you kill a few more demonic beasts.”
Luo Tian smiled, “We should head back to get rid of your poison first. I’m already at the Spirit Martial 7th rank and can handle rank 2 or rank 3 demonic beasts by myself. I can deal with my breakthroughs while your matter seems a bit more important.”
Yi Yunmeng’s meaning was very clear – I will help you until the end of the day, and then I will have to leave.
Luo Tian wasn’t an idiot, so why would he not understand?
But he wanted Yi Yunmeng to get rid of her poison first before leaving.
Yi Yunmeng glared at him before shouting, “Are you listening to me, or am I supposed to listen to you?!”
“You dare to disobey a queen’s command?”
“Are you tired of living?!”
Her voice was ice cold, while her cold n.o.ble aura created a pressure and pressed down onto Luo Tian’s body. Luo Tian immediately nodded, “Of course, I’m listening to the queen.”
“Then why are you speaking so much nonsense?!”
“Come with me!”
Yi Yunmeng’s figure leaped up onto a large tree. She then peered into the distance in search of higher ranking demonic beasts.
She knew that Luo Tian wanted the blood spirit of a rank 7 demonic beast. She didn’t know why Luo Tian needed it, but Yi Yunmeng wanted to give him some as a farewell present.
This was considered compensation for Luo Tian making her tasty grilled meat these past few days.
These past few days, she had been teased by Luo Tian to the point of not knowing whether to laugh or to cry. She was about to even lose the personal principles she had grown up with. She also had been laughing from the bottom of her heart. If someone she knew saw her laughing like that, they would definitely be very shocked.
She was an iceberg in the Misty Cloud Academy. An ice-cold queen that no one had ever seen smile or laugh.
And during this short period of time, she had lost count of how many times Luo Tian had made her laugh.
It was as if she had suddenly changed into a different person.
She didn’t like the change and kept trying to hold herself back. But she still couldn’t help but laugh.
For the grilled meat, for her smiles and laughter… If it weren’t for Luo Tian, she might have already died in the Martial Mountains.
She wasn’t able to get rid of the killers from the Sky Devil Sect.
That’s why, no matter what, she wanted to help Luo Tian one last time as a final repayment. She wanted to head back and tell her little brother everything so that he could regain his confidence. He was not the only person in this world to have a shattered dantian. A person with a shattered dantian can still cultivate!
Her spiritual sense swept the area, but she still couldn’t find a rank 7 demonic beast.
But Yi Yunmeng didn’t give up. She jumped off the large tree and grabbed Luo Tian’s arm before flying out.
“Whoosh~…”
“Whoosh~…”
The sound of wind rushing past his ears was kind of harsh to bear. Luo Tian’s body was positioned slightly behind Yi Yunmeng’s so he could smell the faint intoxicating fragrance coming from her.
Luo Tian knew what she was looking for and muttered, “You don’t really need to do this. I can find my own way to get the power of blood spirits. Not to mention that it’s not that important to me right now.”
Yi Yunmeng coldly snorted, “Enough of your nonsense; I never said I was going to find and kill a rank 7 demonic beast for you. And that whatever blood spirit has nothing to do with me. I’m just looking for some more expensive spiritual herbs. It’s not easy for me to come to Martial Mountain, and I can’t just head back empty-handed.”
She had a stubborn personality and didn’t want Luo Tian to know she was doing this for him.
In her heart, they might never see each other ever again after saying farewell today.
She didn’t like owing people things.
She lightly landed on the ground like a dragonfly touching upon water.
“Whoosh~…”
The two flew off once more.
Those two were like a pair of immortal couples secluding themselves in the depths of a mountain. When their figures cut through the sky, the red sun setting behind them created a very beautiful backdrop. At this moment, Luo Tian thought it would be great if time could stand still.
He wanted to carve this moment into his memory because he understood he could not make Yi Yunmeng stay.
She was the Heaven’s Pride Daughter, the super genius of the Misty Cloud Academy, a person carefully nurtured by the force she belonged to. They were living in two different worlds, a place that was beyond the reach of the current Luo Tian.
