Chapter 78 - 67. Keep blowing

Blood Moon, deep in the dense forest. A black and a white figure dashed through the trees. However, the figure in the black dress suddenly stopped, leaning against a tree trunk, and shook her head as if feeling dazed. Xia Feng had to stop and look at Mu Qingtong, whose lovely face was beaded with sweat, "What’s wrong with you?" Mu Qingtong lifted her beautiful eyes, her scattered pale golden pupils refocused, and she stared expressionlessly at Xia Feng. Xia Feng blinked and then realized, "Oh, I almost forgot." He had subconsciously thought the Destructive Witch was very strong and hadn’t considered the impact of Evil Power on her. But even Mu Qingtong couldn’t withstand the erosion of Evil Power for so long. Thinking of this, he immediately lifted his chin, gazing down at the woman in the black dress with a smile, "I have to say, Miss Mu, you’re quite weak, aren’t you?" Mu Qingtong: ".....!" [Mu Qingtong, in her life, was never weaker than others! Spiritual Light flashed as she initially analyzed the molecular structure of Evil Power and made optimized improvements to the D-grade Evil Extinguishing Spirit Robe; you have successfully mastered the D-grade Spiritual Clothes "Bronze Spirit Robe."] [D·Bronze Spirit Robe] Sёarᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. [Effect 1: Five times more efficient than ordinary Evil Extinguishing Spirit Clothes in filtering Evil Power.] [Effect 2: Your figure becomes even lighter, increasing your speed by 20%.] Mu Qingtong gave Xia Feng a faint glance from her beautiful eyes and continued walking, "Let’s go." Xia Feng smiled and followed her. "Miss Mu, if you can’t handle it, you can tell me, really, there’s no need to force yourself, and—" "Are you going to keep blabbering?" "What I’m trying to say is, you’re going the wrong way, it’s this way." "..." The two continued on their way. The address marked on the back of the photo indicated that their contact, Big Face Cat, would be waiting for them under Wisdom Tree number 004. The Six-tailed Society would explore the Evil Dragon Forest every year, marking each Wisdom Tree they found, and from there create a map of the outer areas of the Evil Dragon Forest. Xia Feng had seen the Six-tailed Society’s map of Wisdom Trees during his last venture into Evil Dragon Forest and roughly remembered the location of number 004. It was a great distance away, and he estimated that even moving at full speed it would take over ten hours. Three hours later. "Miss Mu, can you still hold on?" "Quit the chatter, hurry up." "Alright, keep pushing yourself then~" [Force... push? Ridiculous! Spiritual Light flashed again as she further analyzed the molecular structure of Evil Power and optimized the D-grade Bronze Robe; you have successfully mastered the C-grade Spiritual Clothes "Bronze Spirit Robe."] [C·Bronze Spirit Robe] [Bronze outdid herself, a guarantee of quality.] [Effect 1: Strong Evil Filtration, ten times more efficient than ordinary Evil Extinguishing Spirit Clothes in filtering Evil Power.] [Effect 2: Lightness, your figure becomes even lighter, increasing your speed by 50%.] [Effect 3: Mock Pressure, capable of simulating 1x to 10x your own virtual Spiritual Pressure to intimidate the target.] Xia Feng stopped in his tracks, giving Mu Qingtong a look. Seeing him stop for the first time, the woman in the black dress calmly said, "What, can’t you keep up?" "Heh~" Xia Feng’s competitive spirit was ignited as well; he didn’t believe the Witch could keep this up! "Come on!" Even though both were a bit out of breath, they again accelerated their pace, the contest becoming more intense. However, it wasn’t long before Xia Feng intuitively took out his location card, surprised to find that the red and blue lights on the card were nearly overlapping. Did that mean player number 11 had already reached Zone 51? Had they already entered Evil Dragon Forest? It seems that Number 11’s identity is not simple, he might even have some connections with the Military Department, since that’s the only way he could directly enter the forest on a non-open day. But that’s not important anymore. Since Number 11 has already chased in, it’s only natural to give this guest a warm welcome~ While pondering, Xia Feng turned to the woman in the black dress, "Miss Mu, how are your preparations for the materials needed for Second Order spiritual advancement?" "Why do you ask?" "Just curious. You wouldn’t keep it secret from me, would you?" "It’s almost ready. Ice Silk, three Life Fruits, and the Wood Evil Spirit are all prepared, but the Jupiter Flower is in high demand. According to the information I have, there might be Jupiter Flowers blooming in the Wood Demon Disaster Realm in the Southern Border in a few days." Oh crap, still missing the Jupiter Flower... Hearing this, Xia Feng was about to speak when he frowned and looked back, sensing an extremely active reaction from Evil Power rapidly approaching from behind. Looking at the location card, it wasn’t Number 11, so it could only be the pursuers sent by the Prince. "Shh~" Xia Feng pointed toward the back, signaling with his eyes. Mu Qingtong immediately understood, and both of them used Concealment along with their Bronze Masks to hide in the forest without moving. Soon, a black-robed person wearing a red ’8’ on a white mask arrived at where they had just been standing, looking around in confusion, "Where did they go?" "Whoosh—" At that moment, two dark figures flashed by in the distance and vanished without a trace. The person with the ’8’ mask reacted, their figure flashing instantly to pursue them. After they had gone far away, two figures, a man and a woman standing silently on a large tree, appeared. The woman in the black dress looked thoughtful, "Judging by his footsteps, it seems like an instant steps technique that only a Second Order Spirit Master can learn." "And he’s also a highly evolved Evil," Xia Feng nodded, "Wasted two of my wooden soldiers, hope they can stall him for a while. Let’s go!" The two of them fled in opposite directions. "Where are we going?" Mu Qingtong asked in confusion, "Aren’t we going to deal with that ’8’ person first?" "The pursuers naturally need to be dealt with, but to be on the safe side, I’ll take you to level up first~" "Level up?" "Yes. Miss Mu, to be honest, you’ve been only First Rank for so long, as your fiancé, I really can’t stand it anymore!" Xia Feng glanced at the woman in the black dress, shaking his head helplessly with a ’tough love’ look, "You’re just too weak! So, I’ll reluctantly help you advance to Second Order~" Mu Qingtong, her light golden eyes calm, gazed at her junior, "Heh~" She knew that this idiotic fiancé of hers was once again talking nonsense to provoke her, and she couldn’t be bothered to respond. "Why don’t you advance to Second Order yourself first," she casually remarked in a light tone. Xia Feng shook his head, his tone light and breezy, "Advancing to Second Order is as easy as eating and drinking for me. I’m not advancing now simply because I don’t want to." "..." Seeing Xia Feng’s confident demeanor, Mu Qingtong slightly furrowed her brows, her golden eyes skeptical, "Have you gathered all the spiritual materials? Your spiritual materials can’t be easy to collect, right?" Both of their Spiritual Pressures had already reached the standard required for advancement, what was left was gathering the spiritual materials, and many people could be stuck on this step for years. After all, finding a suitable formula for spiritual materials is no easy task, and even if you collect all the materials needed, there’s still a thirty percent risk of advancement failure. If you fail, you have to start all over and collect the materials again. "Of course, I haven’t collected them all." Xia Feng shook his head, "But advancing as a Spirit Master is like crossing a river; spiritual materials are just a bridge to cross the river. Even without the materials, it’s not like you can’t cross, you could always swim across." "It just means the probability of being swept away by the river would become infinitely greater," Xia Feng looked up at the moon, his posture suggesting an unbeatable lone warrior, "But I am a genius who doesn’t need a bridge and can cross over with a 100% certainty!" "Hehe~" Mu Qingtong gave a polite smile, displaying a ’keep bragging, if I believe a word, I lose’ resigned look.
