After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

Although his sword energy was sharp, each time it slashed into the water vapor,

It was as if they were hitting cotton, with most of their force being absorbed by that gentle power.

Using minimal force to achieve maximum effect.

This woman's water-based magic has reached a very high level.

The two continued exchanging blows as they sped towards the treetops.

Neither of them can do anything about the other.

After a while.

The two arrived at the treetop almost simultaneously!

That Mysterious Spirit Dao Fruit is right before my eyes!

Lin Fengmian reacted quickly, reaching out and grabbing!

The veiled woman also reached out, her bare hand extending out!

Both hands grasped the fruit at the same time!

Eyes facing each other.

The smell of gunpowder suddenly intensified in the air.

"Let go."

The veiled woman spoke coldly.

The voice remained as cold as ice, but Lin Fengmian keenly sensed that for the first time, it carried a hint of anger.

He raised an eyebrow, a playful smile playing on his lips:

"Fairy, I should be the one saying that."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over her, and suddenly said:

"Fairy, you're not a Qi Refining cultivator anymore, are you?"

The veiled woman's gaze sharpened.

She didn't speak, she just stared at him coldly.

Seeing this, Lin Fengmian became even more certain.

really.

Suddenly, he put on a pitiful expression and blinked.

"Sister, since you're no longer a Qi Refining cultivator, this Dao Fruit is of no use to you anymore. Why don't you give it to me?"

He was already extremely handsome, and now, paired with that innocent expression,

Those peach blossom eyes were moist, and they actually looked somewhat harmless.

The veiled woman stared at him in a daze for a moment.

But she quickly regained her senses.

What happened?

A hint of doubt flashed through her mind.

She had cultivated for over a hundred years and had seen countless handsome men.

But I've never felt that way about anyone before.

Moreover, the cultivation method she practices is special.

She has always been a person of few desires and pure heart, so how could she be influenced by a strange man?

Could it be a bewitching spell?

No, she didn't sense any spiritual energy fluctuations.

Could it be some kind of spirit?

She suppressed her doubts, and her gaze returned to its coldness.

Lin Fengmian was surprised to see that she regained her senses so quickly.

His pure yang body naturally attracts women.

They have always been successful.

But this woman only paused for a second?

Just as the two were at an impasse—

"roar----!"

A deafening dragon's roar suddenly erupted from the bottom of the lake!

The sound was extremely penetrating, spreading in all directions as if it were a tangible object!

Those disciples who were still desperately swimming towards the island in the middle of the lake,

Upon hearing this voice, everyone's expression changed drastically!

"What was that sound?!"

"Underwater! There's something underwater!"

"Run!"

Everyone looked at the lake in horror, only to see that the once calm waters were now churning violently!

Huge ripples spread outwards.

Waves crashed against the stone walls of the island in the middle of the lake!

next moment--

A massive figure swam straight upwards from the deepest part of the lake!

That speed was as fast as lightning!

The disciples in the lake were terrified and swam desperately in all directions!

But the figure ignored them completely and sped straight toward the island in the middle of the lake!

Those disciples who originally wanted to go to the island, seeing this, dared not stay any longer.

What foundation-building medicine, what rare and precious herbs, none of it matters anymore!

My life is the most important thing!

The crowd retreated frantically, some even abandoning their magical artifacts.

Swimmed desperately towards the distance!

Lin Fengmian and the veiled woman stood atop the tree canopy.

As they watched the figure getting closer, their expressions changed simultaneously.

A moment later—

"Splash!"

A huge column of water shot into the sky!

That enormous figure, accompanied by towering waves, leaped out of the lake and landed steadily on the island in the middle of the lake!

That was a giant beast that was three or four zhang long!

Resembling a dragon, its entire body is covered in bluish-black scales.

Each scale gleamed with a cold, metallic sheen.

With its thick limbs, sharp claws, and long tail trailing behind it, it could easily sweep a boulder into dust!

But what is most striking is its head.

Above its head, two bulges rose high, as if something was about to burst out of its shell!

That's... a sign that he's about to transform into a dragon!

The veiled woman's gaze sharpened.

She suddenly realized.

How could a treasure of the Xuanling Dao Fruit level not have a guardian spirit beast?

This dragon had clearly been lurking at the bottom of the lake, guarding this Dao Fruit!

The reason it didn't appear immediately is probably because its Dao fruit was not yet mature.

Now that the fruit of its path has ripened, it can no longer restrain itself!

What she knew even more clearly was that the bulge on the top of the dragon's head meant that the rudimentary form of a demon core had already formed within its body!

False Elixir Stage!

Just one step away from truly condensing the demon core and transforming into a true dragon!

The veiled woman was deeply shaken.

She never expected that there would be a pseudo-core stage demon beast in this secret realm!

"roar----!"

The dragon roared to the sky!

That roar contained boundless fury!

This is its territory! This is its spiritual fruit!

These ants dare to covet its things!

The sound waves surged like a tide, spreading in all directions!

Those disciples who were closer to the island in the middle of the lake were hit by the sound wave, and they all bled from their seven orifices and fainted on the spot!

Even Lin Fengmian and the veiled woman, who were at the center of the sound waves, changed their expressions!

The flying sword beneath their feet trembled violently, and the two were forced back several feet before they could barely regain their footing!

Lin Fengmian's blood and qi surged, causing him to feel dizzy and lightheaded.

But soon, his second-level body cultivator's physical body automatically activated, forcibly suppressing the discomfort.

He turned to look at the veiled woman beside him.

She was clearly not feeling well either, her brows were furrowed and her chest was rising and falling slightly.

But she persevered in the end.

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing seriousness in each other's eyes.

This dragon is not something any one of them can handle alone!

The dragon gave the two no chance to catch their breath.

Its cold, vertical pupils swept over the two of them, finally settling on the Xuanling Dao Fruit at the top of the tree canopy.

A glint of greed flashed in his eyes.

next moment--

It opened its mouth wide!

"boom!"

A jet of water shot out from its mouth!

The water column appeared soft, but it was extremely fast and incredibly powerful!

The two of them almost instinctively dodged to the sides!

"Boom!"

The water jet grazed past Lin Fengmian's side and slammed hard against the stone wall behind him!

The hard stone wall was blasted into a huge crater!

Gravel flew everywhere!

Lin Fengmian's face turned ashen.

Even if he were a second-tier body cultivator, he would absolutely not dare to withstand such an attack head-on!

The dragon missed its attack, then turned its massive head and stared intently at Lin Fengmian with its vertical pupils!

It seemed to sense that this human's aura was weaker than the other's.

Choose the softest persimmons to squeeze.

Its massive body twisted in the air, opened its blood-red maw, and went straight for Lin Fengmian to bite!
