A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 637: Chapter 495: Ji Yunrou (Part 2)

This woman is too formidable!

Ji Yunrou clenched her silver teeth, wiped away her tears, and whispered, ”I understand.”

Lu Qian could only remind himself repeatedly that every move of this woman had a purpose. Even the direct seduction just now was no exception.

Therefore—

”Just now, Lady Ji called for me to save you. Is there anywhere else that needs assistance?”

Ji Yunrou lowered her gaze, and said mournfully, ”I am controlled by Meng Chi, my lifespan is almost depleted, and I have only a few days left to live.”

”I earnestly ask Sect Leader Lu for mercy, to help me thoroughly and save my life.”

Lu Qian sighed, ”There are indeed many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures in this world, but those related to extending one’s lifespan are all rare wonders of nature, which the Yunshan Sect does not possess. So asking me is of no use.”

Ji Yunrou, however, shook her head, suddenly bowing deeply, breaking through the concealment of clouds and mist, causing a warmth in Lu Qian’s belly, forcing him to quickly turn away.

”Please, Sect Leader Lu, grant me a strand of True Dragon Blood, I have a Secret Technique that can absorb it to make up for the loss of lifespan.”

Lu Qian was startled, a flash of five-colored light appeared, and the Array Realm encompassed them both. At that moment, he even felt a rising intent to kill!

Ji Yunrou knew she had obtained the True Dragon Blood, indicating that during her being controlled by Meng Chi, she could still perceive the external situation. In this way, not just the True Dragon Blood, but various secrets, even the fact that Lu Qian possesses Immortal Techniques, she knew!

So was the previous seduction also a survival tactic?

Just as the cold feeling rose, Ji Yunrou choked back tears and said, ”If Lu Lang wished to kill me, why save me at that time?”

Lu Qian was taken aback, Ji Yunrou lifted her head and gazed directly into Lu Qian’s eyes, ”I indeed heard some secrets, I can make a Dao Heart Oath not to reveal a word. Besides, now I am equated with Meng Chi, not accepted by the four sects or Cangzhou, even if I were to report these secrets outside, they are indeed shocking, and the first to be silenced would be myself.”

Lu Qian remained silent, Ji Yunrou added, ”As long as you grant me a strand of True Dragon Blood, I become a stakeholder, we become accomplices! No matter what, I wouldn’t expose myself to seek death!”

”Moreover, I won’t take it for free, as long as Lu Lang agrees, I’ll hand over the Fusion Secret Technique involving True Dragon Blood to you. By then, whatever remains of the True Dragon Blood, you can have anyone absorb it to achieve the True Dragon Body Vein!”

Lu Qian suddenly widened his eyes, ”Are these words true?”

Ji Yunrou chuckled softly, ”How could a human body possibly accommodate the power of True Dragon Blood? Without the Secret Technique, how could I extract the essence of life from Dragon Blood to remedy the lack of lifespan?”

”This Secret Technique was created by Meng Chi, a part of the Snake Spirit Fusion Secret Technique. It involves merging the Snake Spirit with the Divine Soul, and also merging the Demon Serpent’s Blood with the body. Now applied to the True Dragon Blood, the principle is entirely the same, only the time required will be extended tenfold or hundredfold, ultimately I have a ninety percent chance of success.”

”Without this Secret Technique, brash absorption would surely lead to death by explosion!”

Hearing her mention the Secret Technique, Lu Qian naturally believed it. Various setups of the Snake Spirit Fusion Secret Technique were backdoors left by Meng Chi True Monarch for its serpentine offspring, being able to absorb True Dragon Blood is not at all surprising.

To absorb True Dragon Blood, achieving the True Dragon Body Vein!

The Body Veins referred to the combination of physique and bloodlines, these two highly harmonized elements often mutually influence and evolve, hence they are paired together.

Special physiques might arise from innate mutations or might be generated later on. If such a physique can be passed down through generations, it becomes a bloodline.

And the external manifestation of special bloodlines is the special physique.

To date, among the cultivators Lu Qian conjectured to have intersected, two people should possess the special Body Veins.

One is Guh Niqiang, whose Body Veins are related to fire, and the other is Jichuan Profound Monarch, who appears to have Body Veins that can control the Water Element.

Having a ”Pure Glazed Body” physique, this acquired trained physique is free from dust and untouched by all things, it cannot again absorb True Dragon Blood.

Thus, who should inherit this Dragon Blood?

No matter who it is, the True Dragon Blood will surely bring a profound enhancement and manifestation to this cultivator!

However, Lu Qian kept a poker face, asking in a deep voice, ”What if I refuse?”

Ji Yunrou softly sighed, stood gracefully, raising her head to reveal her snow-white, elegant neck.

”Then, please Lu Lang, strike, and end it all.”

Lu Qian looked at her coldly, and she candidly met Lu Qian’s gaze. She was still devoid of any attire, but at this moment, no lust remained in Lu Qian’s eyes; he saw once again the extremely perceptive and exceptionally troublesome Sect Leader Ji.

After a brief moment, he softly chuckled.

”You have convinced me.”

Ji Yunrou also breathed a long sigh of relief, softly patting her chest, causing waves to surge, undulating ceaselessly.

Her eyes sparkled, smiling, ”Truly, it scared me, Lu Lang is so teasing.”

Lu Qian did not respond, taking out a set of his own robes from the Storage Pouch and handed them over, ”I don’t have women’s clothing here, put this on first. True Dragon Blood is a solemn matter, it can’t be taken out here, come with me to Minglong Mountain.”

Ji Yunrou giggled and stretched her limbs, beginning to dress in front of Lu Qian. Her charm was boundless, Lu Qian’s heart raced, silently cursing, and he turned away.

”Lu Lang, I’m ready.”

Lu Qian coughed and turned around, seeing Ji Yunrou had changed her clothes, her seductive eyes like threads, delicate fingers pulling up the collar, inhaling deeply with a sense of intoxication.

”Ah... this is the scent of Lu Lang...”

A beautiful woman wearing her man’s robes, amidst allure mingled with a lot of heroic spirit, her flowing eyes, red lips vivid and enticing, the tear mole below her left eye even more tempting, arousing illicit desires in Lu Qian, forcing him to operate the Consciousness Collection, suppressing once again any indecent thoughts.

Gosh, can’t afford to provoke, truly can’t provoke. Otherwise, an accidental discharge, a self-inflicted disaster, the consequences would be unimaginable.

With this in mind, Lu Qian kept a stern face, maintaining deliberate distance from her.

Fortunately, Ji Yunrou stopped acting mischievously, properly dressed, she glanced once more towards Hidden Dragon Stream.

Following her gaze, Lu Qian saw the once mysterious and secluded Hidden Dragon Stream, now with tilted peaks, shattered cliffs, jagged rocks, and a scene of complete wreckage.

Under the collapsed peaks, a crooked stream had been mostly filled in, no longer recognizable as the gentle, deep stream it once was?

Even with concerted observation, only a few collapsed cliff caves could be seen, who could have thought this was once a lively cultivator’s dwelling?

Just as Ji Yunrou mentioned, her cultivation was gone, disciples gone, and the Mountain Gate gone.

For a powerful woman like her, it must be immensely painful.

Lu Qian sighed softly, suddenly hearing Ji Yunrou laugh, ”My sect suffered this calamity, the Hek Sect utterly destroyed, yet Meng Chi looked down on my meager possessions, so the Divine Flood Dragon Sect’s centuries of accumulation is all buried in the mountain’s belly, and should still be excavated.”

”When I return from Minglong Mountain, Sect Leader would accompany me revisiting here, and uncover the secret store. Then I will guide Sect Leader into the mountain to explore Hidden Dragon Stream’s landscape, will that be alright?”

Her words were full of resilient optimism, clearly having experienced overwhelming disaster, yet completely undeterred by adversity, evoking Lu Qian’s admiration.

After exchanging a few more words, as they prepared to leave, suddenly a loud noise sounded across the sky, only to hear Miaomiao Profound Monarch shouting, ”Run, run!”

Lu Qian suddenly raised his head to gaze afar, seeing the Spatial Passage rapidly shrinking, the escape lights of numerous Nascent Souls and Golden Cores frantically streaming out, while Miaomiao Profound Monarch stood with the Dharma Realm spread wide blocking the passage entrance.

The passage closing quickly, so they withdrew? But something seems amiss.

Just as the thought crossed his mind, a purple giant hand covered with patterns appeared from the passage, its eight fingers spread thousands of meters wide, striking heavily on the Profound Monarch’s Realm!

With a crash, the Desolate Sea and Vast Ocean suddenly shattered, Miaomiao Profound Monarch spewed a mouthful of blood, turning into a stream of escape light, retreating in defeat.

This is an imposing creature from the Void!

The giant hand tried to pursue, but the passage abruptly converged, retracting its hand, but a finger managed to brush the Spatial Passage, making purple blood rain down across the sky.

As the blood rain descended, the ground forest instantly ignited in fierce fire. The defiant roars echoed persistently through the sky.

Lu Qian’s gaze focused, silently counting.

Exiting the Spatial Passage, there were two fewer cultivators than when they entered!
