When I stopped licking, the lady panicked.

Just as Lin Xuan was about to be devoured, his body stopped in mid-air, and then milky white flames began to burn on Kara's body.

Flames shot out from his seven orifices and joints throughout his body, as if he were wearing a white mink coat, and engulfed him in an instant.

Ah! Ah!!

"Why? Master, I am your loyal servant!"

"I am your perfect physical body that has returned to the world! You cannot use me as a sacrifice!"

"If I become a sacrifice, you will have no physical body to reside in!"

Kara screamed in agony, rolling on the ground in an attempt to extinguish the flames on her body.

But the flames seemed to be burning from his body, and no matter how much he struggled, it was to no avail.

"Why? I am your loyal servant, why do you want to devour me?"

Kara stared in disbelief at the statue of the Dragon Butterfly. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she fixed her gaze on Lin Xuan.

"Could it be...you? Could it be you??"

Kara pointed at Lin Xuan in mid-air, and in the end, she was burned to ashes.

At the same moment that Kara was burned to ashes, the statue of Dragon Butterfly also collapsed with a crash.

Immediately, a purple light shot out from the ruins and struck Lin Xuan squarely between the eyebrows.

"what!"

Lin Xuan fell to the ground, clutching his forehead, feeling his mind in complete chaos.

He felt his body was extremely hot, as if it were about to burst into flames.

Lin Xuan quickly sat down to meditate and regulate his body, but the energy within him surged wildly like a runaway horse, causing his body to become scalding hot.

boom!!

With a loud bang from inside his body, Lin Xuan's hair burst into flames, turning fiery red and flying wildly.

Lin Xuan struggled to his feet, his clothes burning away completely. Runes appeared on his body, and clear heartbeats emerged from the depths of his consciousness.

In the end, Lin Xuan fainted.

During this period of unconsciousness, Lin Xuan had a dream in which he was chanting scriptures in a cave, and the content of the scriptures was actually the "Tracing the Origin Scripture".

It's unclear how much time passed before Lin Xuan's consciousness returned.

Upon regaining consciousness, Lin Xuan immediately sat up. He touched his body and found that the burning sensation had disappeared.

Moreover, he was surprised to find that his cultivation level had actually advanced from the early stage of the Earth Profound Realm to the middle stage.

"What happened? I broke through to a higher level after just one night's sleep?"

Lin Xuan stared at himself in disbelief. "Could it be... the Origin Tracing Scripture?"

Lin Xuan couldn't think of any other possibility besides this.

Moreover, he dreamed of the contents of the Source Tracing Sutra while he was in a coma, so he naturally assumed that his breakthrough in cultivation was due to the Source Tracing Sutra.

"Although I don't know the principle behind this, if I can break through my cultivation level just by sleeping, then cultivation will be much easier in the future."

Lin Xuan stood up and searched the cave.

Strangely enough, ever since Lin Xuan woke up from his coma, it seemed as if he had a vague memory in his mind.

He couldn't actively look into that memory, but he was unusually familiar with the layout of the cave.

Guided by his memory, Lin Xuan arrived at a stone wall and began to explore its mechanisms.

With a click, the stone wall rotated, and a secret chamber appeared before Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan went inside and saw many boxes of gold and silver jewelry, weapons, pills, magical artifacts, and clothing.

"Looks like I really found a bargain this time." Lin Xuan stepped forward and examined the weapons carefully, discovering that although they were damaged, their materials were extremely valuable.

Even if these weapons are unusable, they can still fetch a considerable price at auction.

As for these gold and silver treasures, they no longer held any appeal for Lin Xuan, who possessed the Imperial Crystal Mine.

Gold and silver jewelry are only useful to low-level cultivators. As their cultivation improves, everyone will use Emperor Crystals as their means of exchange.

Therefore, Imperial Crystals are the hard currency of this world.

"Wait, what is this...?"

Lin Xuan suddenly noticed a bottle, picked it up and looked inside, and found that it contained Rejuvenation Pills.

Lin Xuan smiled the moment he saw the Rejuvenation Pill.

His smile was one of helplessness.

He tried everything to obtain the Rejuvenation Pill, but to no avail.

In order to refine the Rejuvenation Pill, he went to Kuiwen's auction house and bid for the last ingredient, the Blood Spirit Mushroom, but used it to save Liu Yao's life.

He was originally worried about how to gather the last ingredient, but unexpectedly, he found the Rejuvenation Pill in the secret chamber of this cave.

Now he doesn't need to look for medicinal herbs or a fourth-grade alchemist; he already has the Rejuvenation Pill.

"I searched high and low without finding it, but then it came to me effortlessly."

Lin Xuan put the Rejuvenation Pill into his storage pouch and went out to close the secret chamber.

As for the treasures inside, we can examine them more closely next time we come.

He now needs to find Liu Yao and the others to meet up.

After leaving the cave, Lin Xuan was blocked by a sandstorm.

Just as he was about to go around it, a message suddenly popped into his head: the direction he was going was blocked by earthbound spirits, making it impassable.

Lin Xuan was surprised, so he followed the fragmented memories and avoided all the dangerous spots. The terrain of the entire ancient battlefield gradually became clear in his mind.

This ancient battlefield site contains many secret passages and residential areas.

Many treasures are hidden in both secret passages and residential areas.

Lin Xuan had no way of knowing what level of treasure it was.

But that memory told Lin Xuan that these treasures were something that outsiders had never even seen, or even heard of in legends.

At this moment, Liu Yao and Mei Si were searching for Lin Xuan's whereabouts.

Liu Yao looked around anxiously, calling out "Master" repeatedly.

Exhausted, she collapsed to the ground, scraping both her knees.

Meisi calmly walked to Liu Yao's side, pulled her up, and said, "He'll be alright."

"How can you be so sure?" Liu Yao looked at Mei Si with teary eyes.

Meiss said, "Someone doesn't want him to die."

"Who?" Liu Yao asked.

Meiss shook her head and said, "I don't know."

Although both Meisi and Liuyao are disciples of the Hehuan Sect, they do not practice the same type of cultivation technique.

Willow Waist's techniques are geared towards close combat, while Charming Silk's techniques focus on plunder and absorption.

She can inherit a portion of her enemies' memories by plundering their cultivation.

This is why her knowledge is more extensive than that of Liu Yao and the others, because she has used dual cultivation techniques to kill many of her partners.

Therefore, she is much more sensitive to true qi and soul power than ordinary people.

She had sensed a very strong aura emanating from Lin Xuan, an aura that did not belong to the mortal realm.

But Meisi didn't know where that aura came from or where it belonged.

After all, that was beyond Meisi's knowledge.

Just then, a blurry figure emerged from the sandstorm.

Liu Yao wiped away her tears, looked closely, and realized it was Lin Xuan.

"Owner!"

Liu Yao was overjoyed and was about to run over when Mei Si grabbed her arm.

"There's one more," Meisi said.

Liu Yao paused for a moment, then followed Mei Si's gaze and saw another Lin Xuan emerge from the sandstorm.
