Chapter 2134 - 2131: Owing Someone a Favor

Qi Lechun actually had thoughts about the Yin God Spring, but he decided to let Xu Wendong have it!

With the potential Xu Wendong has, this is definitely an investment for himself.

"Old Qi, you’re a smart man!" Xu Wendong couldn’t help but sigh, "I owe another big favor!"

Although the whole process was Xu Wendong killing the enemies, no, by coincidence, he happened to have caused their demise.

But Qi Lechun provided him with clues, and now they’re not even talking about ’dividing the spoils,’ just this point alone is something extraordinary!

"Then I won’t bother with these bodies on the ground, let Old Qi have them." Xu Wendong thought to himself.

As he thought this, he was already making his move, several Netherworld Talismans appeared.

He began setting up restrictions all around!

The Yin God Spring lay on the ground; Xu Wendong had tried to collect some earlier, but once it left the wellhead, the spring water would automatically turn into yin energy and dissipate.

It seems there’s no way to take it away.

Just as Xu Wendong was about to take out the Three-Life Stone Fragment, the Painting Saint suddenly spoke, "Wait."

Xu Wendong was surprised and asked, "What do you mean, senior?"

"The reason the Yin God Spring attracts so many is that it doesn’t only purify resentment; you can guide the power of the Yin God Spring to refine your soul power and enhance your cultivation level!"

"How to guide it?"

"I’ll teach you!"

Soon, Xu Wendong followed what the Painting Saint said and sat cross-legged.

As the spell in his hand changed, the Yin God Spring began to ripple, and streams of pure yin energy surged from the spring like threads, surrounding Xu Wendong.

Xu Wendong only felt a vast and pure yin energy drilling into his body through his pores.

This yin energy was cold and piercing yet contained endless vitality, recklessly crashing around inside his body, trying to disrupt it.

"Don’t panic. Although the process is painful, the benefits are great!" The Painting Saint’s voice came.

Xu Wendong gritted his teeth and endured the intense pain from his soul sea, circulating his soul power within, guiding this yin energy through his soul sea with the technique Qi Lechun had taught him, constantly refining his soul body.

The steady stream of purest yin energy continued to emerge from the Yin God Spring!

At first, Xu Wendong felt very painful, but soon, the pain became more bearable, then comfortable, even making Xu Wendong want to groan.

And his soul power inside was gradually expanding; he had just broken through to the Ghost Control Realm Second Layer not long ago, yet his soul power was almost overflowing!

This...

The Yin God Spring truly is wondrous!

He was about to break through to the Ghost-controlling Realm Third Level again!

Bang!

His body shook violently, with soul power and yin energy reaching their peak, finally breaking through the bottleneck.

Xu Wendong slowly opened his eyes, his gaze even more dignified. Ghost-controlling Realm Third Level!

"This thing is too perverse; for cultivators in the Ghost Control Realm, it’s simply an immortal treasure!" Even Xu Wendong couldn’t help but sigh.

"What a pity. If I didn’t have to purify the Three-Life Stone Fragment, I wonder how much further this Yin God Spring could elevate my realm?"

Xu Wendong thought this over.

But then he waved his hand, "Having this improvement is already enough; greed will only lead to ruin!"

He took out two Three-Life Stone Fragments and threw them directly into the Yin God Spring.

The moment the Three-Life Stone Fragments hit the water, the Yin God Spring seemed as if a heavy bomb had been thrown in, and the originally calm spring surface instantly exploded into a spray several meters high, boiling like a hot oil pot.

The sharp wailing echoed, like a raging beast howling.

But within moments, the wailing abruptly stopped.

"Is it purified so quickly?" Xu Wendong was a bit surprised.

"Purification is not about speed, but intensity," the Painting Saint said. "Alright, your next task is to continue searching for other Three-Life Stone Fragments."

The two Three-Life Stone Fragments, the black resentment on them had disappeared, revealing their original appearance!

Absolutely pure, and as he held them, a seemingly endless flow of soul power seemed to seep into his body from the Three-Life Stone Fragments!

Though not much, it was truly present.

"This is..."

Xu Wendong was astonished!

"The Three-Life Stones can continuously provide soul power for cultivation. Even if you don’t actively absorb them, they’ll constantly enhance your cultivation level slowly," explained the Painting Saint. "If it were complete, the effects would be even stronger!"

Xu Wendong nodded.

He lifted the restrictions.

Moments later, Qi Lechun arrived, looking at the now depleted Yin God Spring with some surprise.

How could Xu Wendong only improve by one level?

This shouldn’t be. The Yin God Spring’s effects should go beyond this, but he didn’t ask further, instead saying, "How do you feel, young friend?"

Xu Wendong smiled, "I feel great, thank you."

"Then let’s hurry and leave; I just saw someone else heading this way, probably also for the Yin God Spring."

Xu Wendong nodded, and they quickly left.

After they had left, a group of people appeared near the Yin God Spring. The person leading them, with graying hair, stared gloomily at the Yin God Spring and said, "We arrived too late!"

"Elder, Elder Liu is dead, and his disciple is also dead!"

The old man’s expression turned grim!

Elder Liu was an elder from the Liuyun Sacred Land, and that young disciple who died was also one of the candidates for this Dragon and Phoenix Grand Competition. Yet he too died here!

"Investigate, find out who did it!"

The old man scanned the area with his eyes, "The opponent is skilled in Nether Talisman Techniques, the search range won’t be too large, investigate thoroughly! I want to know who dared to kill someone from Liuyun Sacred Land in Lieyin County!"

At his command, the people behind him scattered like ghosts.

Meanwhile, Xu Wendong and Qi Lechun sped towards Lieyin County.

As they walked, Qi Lechun said, "Young friend, causing such a commotion this time, I’m afraid Liuyun Sacred Land, Wind Thunder Pavilion, and Joyful Holy Land won’t let this slide."

"It’s fine," Xu Wendong said casually.

He didn’t care about the people from these three forces. On this trip, his gains were the greatest!

Moreover, he had means of concealment, and his handling of traces just now was extremely clean, so he didn’t worry about being found!

Parting ways with Qi Lechun, Xu Wendong found an inn to stay at.

The goal of purifying the Three-Life Stone Fragment had been achieved.

"But now I only have two Three-Life Stone Fragments in hand, I wonder where the other fragments are?"

His eyes flickered.

"You silly boy, if you take out your purified Three-Life Stone Fragments, you’ll know!" said the Painting Saint.

At these words, Xu Wendong took out the Three-Life Stone Fragments. Previously, he hadn’t had a chance to feel them, having been focused on getting away from the scene. Now, he could sense it carefully!

He indeed felt an extraordinary peculiarity!

A kind of pull and guidance seemed to emerge in his mind, manifesting as a glowing dot.

"Could this be another Three-Life Stone Fragment?"
