"The body must not have been taken away!" Duan Rui said firmly.
Duan Zhirou had already passed out and her body fell to the ground, motionless.
The black cage is slowly dissipating, and the black rope tied to Xing Nan's body is also getting thinner and lighter.
About an hour passed before the black cage completely dissipated, and Xing Nan and Duan Rui were able to regain their freedom.
The cage where Duan Zhirou was in naturally no longer existed. Duan Rui lifted his sister up, shook her gently, and called softly: "Sister, wake up!"
"If you don't mind, I can check it with my spiritual sense." Xing Nan said.
"You?" Duan Rui seemed a little hesitant. He knew that Xing Nan was at a high level, even much higher than Princess Yunshang. It was naturally the best choice to let Xing Nan check it out, but Xing Nan was an outsider after all, and she was still
It is really inappropriate for a man to have Xing Nan's spiritual consciousness invade his sister's sea of consciousness.
"Let him take a look." Princess Yunshang interjected.
"Okay, but..." Duan Rui was obviously worried.
"Don't worry." Xing Nan also knew what Duan Rui was worried about, so he said sincerely, "I'm just checking, there will be no other actions."
"Yeah." Duan Rui nodded.
Xing Nan didn't hesitate, he poured out his consciousness and invaded Duan Zhirou's sea of consciousness.
Duan Zhirou's sea of consciousness is also an illusory world shrouded in mist. Her soul, like ordinary people, is a cloud in this misty world.
However, this soul cloud that should have been as white as snow is now glowing with black light, with wisps of black mist mixed in it... This should be the reason why Duan Zhirou is unconscious.
Xing Nan used his spiritual consciousness to wrap up Duan Zhirou's soul cloud. After careful inspection, his spiritual consciousness exited Duan Zhirou's sea of consciousness.
"How is it? My sister, is she okay?" Duan Rui asked quickly when he saw Xing Nan open his eyes.
"I can't tell the specific situation, but her soul shows no signs of collapse." Xing Nan replied.
"Is there any way to wake her up?" Duan Rui asked again.
"I can give it a try, but my level is not high after all, and her soul is in a very special condition. If her soul is forcibly shaken, even if it is just a slight shock, she might be able to lose her soul." Xing Nan is okay.
Calmly and authentically.
"Then don't try it." Princess Yunshang said immediately.
"But if we delay it for too long, I'm afraid there will be problems." Duan Rui said anxiously.
Princess Yunshang and Xing Nan could only remain silent, unable to think of a better way for a while.
"It's better to leave here quickly and get to the Holy Dragon Imperial City as soon as possible. There are many experts gathered there and there are a lot of supplies. There may be a better way to rescue cousin Zhirou." Princess Yunshang suddenly said.
"That's all we can do." Duan Rui nodded helplessly.
Princess Yunshang picked up Duan Zhirou and prepared to leave.
Xing Nan looked at the huge bird corpse in the middle of the magma river again, and with a sudden thought, he pointed at the middle of the river and said, "That should be the corpse of the black phoenix. It would be a waste to leave it here."
Duan Rui and Princess Yunshang were also moved.
"I'm afraid my storage magic weapon can't hold such a huge black phoenix corpse. Do you have a higher-grade storage magic weapon?" Xing Nan asked.
"I have."
After Princess Yunshang responded, she flew towards the center of the magma river, then enveloped Hei Feng's body with her spiritual consciousness and put it into a storage magic weapon.
Returning to the river bank, Princess Yunshang took out a gourd-shaped magic weapon as big as a palm, handed it to Xing Nan, and said: "You have a higher level of cultivation, you come to make it recognize its master, and you can drive it
, you can hold on longer.”
"This..." Xing Nan hesitated. After all, this gourd is a Xuan-level magic weapon. How can he keep it to himself?
"If it weren't for you, we would have died long ago, let alone killing those two king-level masters. This gourd should also be yours." Princess Yunshang said sincerely.
"But I have nothing to lose, but your griffon is dead." Xing Nan responded.
"That griffon is not mine at all. It was given to me by the Third Prince Song Jin for transportation." Princess Yun Shang thrust the gourd magic weapon into Xing Nan's hand and walked away.
"Brother Xing, take it." Duan Rui cupped his fist at Xing Nan, "Thanks to you this time, thank you."
Duan Rui's expression was also very sincere, and his prejudice against Xing Nan was probably mostly gone. It was not because he was afraid of Xing Nan's strength, but because of Xing Nan's performance for a long time that he could no longer feel disgusted.
"hehe."
Xing Nan just smiled indifferently, and then without thinking about it, he bit his finger and dropped a drop of his own blood on the gourd magic weapon.
The blood melted into the gourd. After a while, a message was transmitted into Xing Nan's soul, and he knew... This gourd is called the Xuanling Gourd. It is a Tongxuan-level magic weapon that can be used for transportation and flight. It also has strong abilities.
With attack and defense power, it is a rare multi-purpose magic weapon, much more precious than ordinary Tongxuan-level magic weapons.
With a thought, the Xuanling Gourd disappeared from the palm of his hand and sank into his Dantian.
Then, Xing Nan commanded the sword spirit in Dantian to release the sword essence true fire and burn the Xuanling gourd.
…
It took a full hour for Xing Nan and the others to return to the surface from deep underground and found themselves in the forest deep in the Luofeng Mountains.
On the edge of the underground magma river, Xing Nan was not injured at all, but he was still in a weak state after the power of the third ring. Even though he had initially completed the refining of the Xuanling Gourd, he could only use the Seal Technique to make it
Rise big.
When Princess Yunshang hugged Duan Zhirou and jumped onto the Xuanling Gourd with Duan Rui, Xing Nan used his spiritual consciousness to drive the Xuanling Gourd into the air, and then slowly accelerated towards the northeast.
Driven by Xing Nan, the Xuanling Gourd's flying speed is not very fast, but it can still remain stable.
Xing Nan sat cross-legged alone on the front half of the gourd, while Princess Yunshang hugged Duan Zhirou and sat on the back half with Duan Rui.
As for Xiao Meng, he was curled up on Xing Nan's shoulder as usual, sleeping soundly.
The Luofeng Mountain Range is long and narrow, with an average width. It only took Xuanling Gourd less than an hour to fly out of the Luofeng Mountain Range and arrive over a prairie.
After flying out of the Luofeng Mountains, Xing Nan finally relaxed.
Although the sky was getting dark at this time, in order to reach the Holy Dragon Imperial City as soon as possible, Xing Nan did not stop flying. Controlling the Xuanling Gourd to fly would also slow down his recovery speed.
So, after some hesitation, Xing Nan turned to Princess Yunshang and asked: "Your Highness, is there any high-quality recovery elixir?"
"have."
Princess Yunshang handed Duan Zhirou to Duan Rui. She moved to the front, but there was a small jade bottle in her hand. She apologized: "I would have forgotten if you didn't tell me. You did not hesitate to kill those two people before.
Burning life essence to forcibly increase your strength will consume a lot of energy. Now that you have to control the flight of this magic weapon all the time, it will definitely be difficult to recover quickly. The elixir in this bottle is the best rejuvenation elixir..."
After saying this, Princess Yunshang suddenly frowned and shivered involuntarily, like an ordinary person in thin clothes suddenly encountering a cold wind.
"What's wrong?" Xing Nan took the small jade bottle and asked.
"I don't know, I suddenly feel so cold, like..." Princess Yunshang crossed her arms, "It's like when I was hit by the Yin Demon's blood mark."
"How could this happen?" Xing Nan frowned with concern on his face.
Although Princess Yunshang's cultivation level is not very high, she will never feel cold even in the ice and snow.
Princess Yunshang shook her head and speculated: "I don't know either, maybe it's because the black phoenix left the blood of the black phoenix in my body."
As she spoke, her lips kept trembling and her body was still trembling. She added in a trembling voice: "Ever since the sky turned dark, I have been feeling cold from time to time. I could resist it easily before, but now I can no longer bear it.
.”
Princess Yunshang has not yet reached the clan level, and the sword spirit embryo in her dantian does not have the ability to release true fire. After hearing her description, Xing Nan activated the sword spirit in her dantian to release streams of sword essence true fire, and
Let the sword essence's true fire flow throughout your body.
Gradually, Xing Nan's body began to heat up, getting hotter and hotter.
"It's so cold." Princess Yunshang's body almost curled up into a ball, and she kept shivering.
Xing Nan put an arm on Princess Yun Shang's back shoulder, hoping to help Princess Yun Shang keep herself warm.
What he didn't expect was that Princess Yunshang might be unable to bear the bone-chilling cold, so she slipped into his arms.
Seeing Princess Yunshang acting like a poor cold kitten, Xing Nan felt pity for her, so he wrapped his arms around Princess Yunshang's delicate body and hugged her tightly.
Xing Nan felt that what he was holding was not a soft and delicate body, but a big ice cube.
Princess Yunshang felt like a mortal who had been hit by severe cold and finally found a cave with a stove in the ice and snow.
Being attacked by the severe cold all over her body, she was naturally extremely attached to this warmth. She seemed to have forgotten the difference between men and women.
Maybe... deep down in her heart, she doesn't reject Xing Nan's embrace at all.
This scene naturally caught Duan Rui's eyes. To be honest, he was very jealous in his heart, but then he laughed bitterly at himself, and his jealousy turned into pure envy.
Duan Rui is also holding a young and beautiful woman, but unfortunately this woman is his elder sister, not his confidante.
…
It wasn't until the sky got slightly brighter that Princess Yunshang's body gradually became warmer. But she, who had been tired for a long time and worried about her country, her people, her friends, and herself, fell asleep in Xing Nan's arms.
Naturally, Xing Nan would not wake up Princess Yunshang. The beauty was in his arms. This special feeling made him extremely reluctant to leave her. His love for Princess Yunshang had already taken root and sprouted like a seed. At this moment, the beauty he admired was in his arms.
, he wished he could go on like this forever.
Duan Rui didn't bother, he was only worried about his sister's condition.
It wasn't until noon that Princess Yunshang finally woke up, whether she was hungry or had enough sleep. She opened her eyes faintly, with a layer of mist in her eyes. The first thing that caught her eye was
Xing Nan's chin, lips and nose... At this moment, Xing Nan was controlling the Xuanling Gourd to speed up.
Then she suddenly woke up and hurriedly broke away from Xing Nan's arms. Her fair and pretty face suddenly turned red.
"Your Highness is awake, do you feel better?" Xing Nan came back to his senses and asked with concern.
Princess Yun Shang lowered her head with a shy look on her face, and after a long time she replied: "Just call me Yun Shang."
