Chapter 163: The Charm of Spirit Patterns

"What is it" He was startled as an object suddenly appeared before him, seemingly appearing through a spatial rift.A green bead flew at him. When Schen Xiang spotted it, he released his palm power fro...Chapter 163 - The Charm of Spirit Pattern

After more than half an hour, Liu Meng’er was able to move. Although she couldn’t use her true qi, she could see that her true qi was still in her dantian. However, it was suppressed by a powerful and strange force that prevented her from using it.

Liu Meng’er wasn’t as majestic and intimidating as before. She looked at Shen Xiang with a strange expression and asked softly, "Why do you still want to find the Black Tortoise Karmic Armor in such a situation And why are you recovering faster than me"

She knew that Shen Xiang’s physical body was very powerful, but hers was still stronger. After all, she had long been a figure at the top of辰武大陸’s power.

Shen Xiang smiled slightly, as if nothing had happened between them just now.

"Heh heh, your physical body might be stronger than mine, but my physical body has been refined in a special way!"

Both the Immortal and Demon Qi Refinement, along with Draconic Blood Pill Refinement, had made his physical body have fast healing abilities. When they were sucked into the Black Tortoise Realm, their strength was drained away, leaving them exhausted. However, Shen Xiang recovered quickly.

Liu Meng’er got up and felt very weak. She could only勉強 walk, while Shen Xiang was full of energy. If Shen Xiang were to do something inappropriate towards her at this moment, she wouldn’t have the strength to resist. This thought worried her, although she could tell that Shen Xiang had no interest in her. It made her admire him while also feeling a little disappointed, considering the charm she had failed to make him fall for.

"Eat it!" Shen Xiang threw her an jade box filled with body-refining pills, "I’m going to find the Black Tortoise Karmic Armor. The journey might be dangerous, do you want to follow me Although my strength is far inferior to yours, who knows what might happen now."

"Hmph! Don’t be so smug! If it’s a physical strength competition, I’ll definitely beat you. Few people on 夔武大陸 can surpass me." Liu Meng’er said with a delicate snort, "I promised Fairy Xian that I won’t let you be harmed at all. Of course, I’ll have to follow you!"

Shen Xiang chuckled and returned to his usual manner, "You were worried about me stripping you of your clothes earlier. You were so scared when you realized that you couldn’t use your true qi."

Liu Meng’er only snorted delicately. She suddenly realized that being so gentle to Shen Xiang was actually unproductive, but of course she knew that he was just joking with her.

Shen Xiang said solemnly, "Sister Meng’er, let’s agree that the Black Tortoise Karmic Armor is mine. Don’t try to take it away later!"

"If you can, take it. This thing isn’t easy to obtain otherwise Old Yellow would have already brought it back to the Great Martial Palace by now." Liu Meng’er said nonchalantly.

Shen Xiang looked around and found that they were in a wilderness full of large and small rocks. The sky was darkened by black clouds that obscured the light, and it seemed to be night inside the Black Tortoise Realm.

"Have you been here before" Shen Xiang asked.

"Yes, I’ve been once. Back then, I was still at the True Martial Realm and wasn’t affected by such strange forces," Liu Meng’er chewed slowly on the body-refining pills, and her eating manners were very pleasing to Shen Xiang as he watched.

"Hmph, If you weren’t Fairy Xian’s man, I would definitely make your life difficult! Don’t take advantage of me, my patience has limits,"

Liu Meng’er suddenly became angry. As the ruler of Heavenly Armory Heaven, she commanded over a huge empire and now kept being teased by this young man who was only twenty years old, she hadn’t experienced such humiliation in a long time.

"Sister Meng’er, are you hating me now" Shen Xiang asked as he knelt down and touched the dirt on the ground, unsure of which way to go.

"You ask such obvious questions! You used to have a good impression of me, but you were just playful. But now Hmph!" Liu Meng’er looked around and warned vigilantly, also searching for a direction to go.

"Sigh, my plan seems to have failed!" Shen Xiang sighed helplessly. At that moment, he heard a faint sound of running water, which was a river. Before Old Yellow had told him that to find the Black Tortoise Karmic Armor, they needed to follow the river.

"What plan" Liu Meng’er asked curiously, she also heard the sound of running water.

Shen Xiang sighed, "Because you hate me, you won’t teach me alchemy anymore. I really want to learn it."

Liu Meng’er snorted, "I won’t teach you. You have already learned how to make pills, why do you want to learn alchemy as well"

Shen Xiang originally wanted to seek advice from the Empress of the Alchemy Realm, but now it seemed unlikely.

"I feel that my pills are only those basic ones, although there are many types. Most of them aren’t very useful except for the common ones I often use, I want to learn more about alchemy and try to combine it with pill formation. Maybe this could lead to a new kind of pill that would be very useful!" Shen Xiang said, walking towards the direction where he heard the sound of running water.

Liu Meng’er followed behind him, planning to go in that direction as well.

Liu Meng’er only thought that Shen Xiang’s idea was unrealistic when she saw him trying to create new pills. She laughed sarcastically, "Don’t even think about it, this is impossible. Although both alchemy and pill formation use fire, the processes are very different. A powerful alchemist might not be good at making pills, and a powerful pill master might not have the skills to make pills! Just like Elder Pill, she can only produce low-grade spirit tools and I can only make low-level pills."

Shen Xiang just shook his head and smiled, "That’s fine. When I create the first pill that combines my ideas and theories, I’ll personally bring it to you and make sure your face is reddened."

Liu Meng’er casually said, "I’ll welcome you anytime. By that time, I might have already ascended to Heaven."

Suddenly feeling a little annoyed by Liu Meng’er’s disrespect, Shen Xiang stopped and took out a piece of paper filled with messy spirit patterns. However, upon closer inspection, the chaotic patterns were actually orderly and seemed to intertwine together in a certain way. As he looked closely, his mind was drawn into the patterns and followed them.

Liu Meng’er only looked at it for two eyes and was immediately absorbed, unable to break free. She knitted her brows tightly as she thought deeply about and followed the spirit patterns, trying to understand their functions and the rules behind many intertwined patterns.

While Liu Meng’er was deeply engrossed in watching the spirit patterns, Shen Xiang smirked and quickly put away the paper. He continued walking, making Liu Meng’er madly stomp her lotus feet and let out a delicate snarl.

Liu Meng’er noticed the spatial gate built by Long Xueyi and knew that Shen Xiang had many secrets. Although the patterns were very complicated, causing headaches, she loved this kind of thing. The spirit patterns Shen Xiang showed her were the most peculiar and complex ones she had encountered, she thought they were a kind of high-grade spirit pattern. If used properly, it could unleash powerful forces.y bubble up with many bubbles as many tiny armored crocodiles emerged from under the mud."These are all crocodiles!Shen Xiang saw their small armored body covered in very stiff black scales, and clawe...
