Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

“Master, wake up quickly, wuu wuu wuu… It’s all Ziyuan’s fault… It’s all Ziyuan who has implicated you…”

Lin Feng faintly heard the sound of crying.

Then, he felt something dripping onto his mouth corner, flowing into his mouth, a salty taste.

“I seem to have been attacked by the Black Water Xuan Snake. Am I dead?”

Suddenly, a thought emerged in his mind.

Lin Feng did not want to die because he still had many things he wanted to do.

But now, having encountered the Black Water Xuan Snake, there was no possibility of surviving. Lin Feng felt very tired and wanted to fall into a deep sleep; endless darkness was swallowing him bit by bit.

But at that moment, that sad crying sound rose again in the endless darkness.

“Master, will you wake up, please? I’m begging you, Master, please don’t leave Ziyuan alone.”

…

“Ziyuan, it’s Ziyuan crying. I thought I was dead. Why do I hear Ziyuan’s crying?”

As Lin Feng was about to be swallowed by the darkness, that sad crying sound penetrated his heart.

He struggled to open his eyes.

A beautiful face, tear-streaked like rain on pear blossoms, appeared before him.

“Ziyuan.” Lin Feng murmured.

“Wuu wuu wuu, thank goodness, Master, you’ve finally woken up. You almost scared Ziyuan to death.”

Ziyuan cried tears of joy.

“I’m not dead? It feels so good to be alive.”

Lin Feng murmured; he felt the endless darkness being dispelled—all because he was still alive.

However, Lin Feng’s injuries were severe, and he soon passed out again.

When Lin Feng woke up again, the sky had already become dim.

“Master, you’re awake…” Ziyuan said, delighted upon seeing Lin Feng.

Lin Feng nodded and said, “Ziyuan, help me up.”

Ziyuan nodded her head and helped Lin Feng up.

“What is this place?” Lin Feng asked.

“This is a desolate island,” Ziyuan said softly.

Lin Feng nodded; he and Ziyuan were indeed lucky to have ended up on a desolate island. He looked at Ziyuan somewhat puzzled and asked, “What about the Black Water Xuan Snake? Did it not eat us? How did we escape?”

Ziyuan also looked puzzled and said, “It seems like the Black Water Xuan Snake ran away, but I don’t know why it ran away.”

Lin Feng said, “Perhaps there are reasons we don’t know, but being able to survive the attack of the Black Water Xuan Snake is indeed a stroke of extreme luck.”

“Cough, cough, cough…” Just after uttering a few words, Lin Feng began to cough violently.

He coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood, his face still very pale, making it hard to imagine just how terrifying the power of the Black Water Xuan Snake was.

Lin Feng wasn’t even struck directly by the Black Water Xuan Snake and had already suffered such injuries. If he were hit by the snake, he would probably die a terrible death.

“Young master, how are you feeling?” Seeing Lin Feng coughing up blood, Ziyuan’s eyes reddened again, her expression full of terror and on the verge of tears.

She kept blaming herself, “It’s all Ziyuan’s uselessness, it’s all because of Ziyuan that the young master is suffering. If it weren’t for Ziyuan, the young master would definitely have been able to dodge the Black Water Xuan Snake’s attack. It’s all Ziyuan’s fault. Ziyuan can’t help the young master at all and even almost got him killed.”

“Silly girl, don’t blame yourself. If it weren’t for Ziyuan, the young master would have already died at Mist Magnetic Lake.”

Lin Feng reached out to wipe Ziyuan’s tears and said, “Ziyuan, you guard me while I go into seclusion to heal.”

“Young master, rest assured, Ziyuan will definitely not let you get hurt again,” Ziyuan said, clenching her fist.

“Mm,” Lin Feng nodded and smiled, “I believe Ziyuan can do it.”

Lin Feng’s injuries were too severe, and he didn’t dare delay any longer. Sitting cross-legged, he swallowed a few Healing Pills and then started to circulate the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique to begin healing.

Time slowly passed, and after an indeterminate period, Lin Feng finally opened his eyes. He felt his body’s condition, and his injuries had almost fully recovered. Seeing Lin Feng waking up, Ziyuan, filled with joy, asked, “Young master, are you finally all better?”

“All better, completely better,” Lin Feng said, noticing Ziyuan’s fatigued demeanor with a touch of heartache. “Have you not rested at all?”

“Ziyuan was protecting young master,” Ziyuan said softly.

Filled with emotion, Lin Feng said, “Have a rest for a while, don’t wear yourself out.”

Ziyuan nodded and lay down in Lin Feng’s arms, falling asleep quickly.

Lin Feng looked out of the cave, and it was still night outside. The island was truly desolate; Lin Feng hadn’t even heard the sound of animal calls.

In the middle of the night, suddenly, a golden light soared into the sky from deep within the island and then vanished with a flash, leaving no trace.

“What was that?”

Lin Feng was startled, even thinking he might have seen wrong, but soon he knew he hadn’t made a mistake; it indeed was a golden light that had shot into the heavens and then disappeared.

“Deep in the island, there must be something astonishing.”

Lin Feng muttered to himself.

The next day, when Ziyuan woke up, Lin Feng went with her towards the deep parts of the island.

Lin Feng still thought about the golden light he saw the prior night, coming from the deepest part of the island.

The island was shrouded in thick fog, with visibility only around five to six meters. Releasing his Divine Sense, he could sense the scenery about twenty meters away. Lin Feng didn’t know if there was anything terrifying on the island, so he was extremely cautious.

When Lin Feng reached the deep part of the island, he found a stretch of ruins. It seemed as though many people had lived here in past years, but now, the place had completely fallen into desolation.

“Crack, crack…” Suddenly, the ground shook violently. Shortly after, the ground cracked open, and a pitch-black figure surged out. It was an extremely ugly entity, radiating evil and chilly aura, its peculiar eyes flickering with a spine-chilling light.

“Corpse Charm.” Lin Feng gasped in shock. It was the legendary Corpse Charm, reportedly formed when the bodies of powerful beings were buried and gradually turned into mummies. Then, by some fluke, they awakened a consciousness and transformed into malevolent Corpse Charms. Their bodies were as hard as many Defensive Magical Treasures—impervious to blades and spears, and they were ferociously aggressive.

Seeing the Corpse Charm that had burst from the ground, Lin Feng quickly pulled Ziyuan behind a large tree, covering their noses with his hands.

Lin Feng didn’t even dare to breathe for fear that the Corpse Charm would sense the faint sounds of their breaths. After emerging, the Corpse Charm’s chilling green eyes glanced around and eventually issued a low roar before rushing deeper into the ruins.
