Chapter 312: Resurrection of the Soul of Love
Elder Lingxu stepped forward again and said sincerely, "Spiritual Beast, do you trust us now?"
Lingxi nodded slightly, walked up to Elder Lingxu, and bowed gently. Elder Lingxu took out a specially crafted dagger and carefully cut off a small section of Lingxi horn. He then took out many precious spiritual herbs and fruits, placed them in front of Lingxi, and said, "This is our compensation to you. Thank you very much."
Lingxi looked at the spiritual herbs and fruits, then turned around and slowly disappeared into the misty forest.
The three armies met outside the Yaoguang Secret Realm. They returned to the Holy Palace with joy, carrying the water from the Lingxu Holy Spring, Lingmeng Flowers and Lingxi Horns.
Ling Xiu Han took the spiritual object and hurried to the secret room where Lan Yunyan was.
Ling Xiuhan stepped into the secret chamber, where the silence was so hushed that only the soft sounds of his breathing and the rustling of his clothes could be heard. The walls were inlaid with spirit crystals emitting a cold, blue glow, illuminating the entire chamber with a dreamlike, yet chilling, loneliness. In the center sat an exquisite stone platform, engraved with ancient and complex spirit runes. These runes seemed to possess life, emanating a faint, flowing light.
Ling Xiuhan gently placed the Spirit Jade Box containing the Spirit Crystal Heart and the brocade bag containing the Spirit Feather Butterfly's wings on the side of the stone platform. He then removed the Spirit Jade that sealed Lan Yunyan's spirit from his bosom. He held the Spirit Jade in both hands, his eyes filled with deep affection and longing, and murmured, "Yunyan, we have gone through countless hardships to find these two spiritual objects. You will be returning soon. Please be patient for a moment." With this, he slowly placed the Spirit Jade in the groove in the center of the stone platform.
Then, Ling Xiuhan opened the Spirit Jade Box. As the Spirit Crystal Heart emerged, the entire chamber's spiritual energy instantly surged towards it like a tide. It hovered in the air, its light growing increasingly dazzling, its radiant radiance illuminating every corner of the chamber. Ling Xiuhan channeled his own spiritual energy, forming complex hand seals with his hands, and slowly guided the Spirit Crystal Heart towards Lan Yunyan's spirit. As the Spirit Crystal Heart neared the spirit, a powerful attraction developed between them. The Spirit Crystal Heart's light coiled around the spirit like a serpent, gradually merging with it. Lan Yunyan's spirit's previously faint glow intensified, like a star about to awaken.
Then, Ling Xiuhan produced the wings of the Spirit Feather Butterfly. With a gentle shake of the brocade pouch, the wings floated forth, slowly unfolding in the air. Amidst a shimmering multicolored light, countless tiny spirit butterflies flew forth, dancing gracefully around Lan Yunyan's spirit. Ling Xiuhan guided these spirit butterflies, allowing them to merge into Lan Yunyan's spirit one by one. With each one, the spirit's outline grew clearer, vaguely resembling Lan Yunyan's.
However, just as the resurrection ritual was about to be completed, the chamber suddenly began to shake violently, and the light of the spirit crystals on the walls flickered, as if disturbed by some powerful force. Ling Xiuhan was startled, and he could sense an evil aura slowly rising from the base of the chamber.
"Who is it? How dare you come here to cause trouble at this moment!" Ling Xiu Han shouted angrily, his eyes full of murderous intent.
A massive crack slowly opened up in the chamber's floor, and billowing black smoke billowed out. The smoke condensed, transforming into the form of a black-robed figure. The black-robed figure let out a sinister laugh, "Ling Xiuhan, do you think you can resurrect her so easily? This spiritual object of Lingxu Valley is something I've secretly guarded. You took it, and you must pay the price!"
Ling Xiu Han gritted his teeth and said, "You evil man, don't try to stop me!" After that, he flashed and rushed towards the man in black robe like an arrow. The long sword in his hand was unsheathed in an instant, and the spiritual power on the sword surged, turning into a sharp sword energy that slashed towards the man in black robe.
The black-robed man remained calm. With a wave of his hands, a black shield appeared in front of him, easily blocking Ling Xiuhan's attack. "Your skills may be strong, but in this secret room, my power is the master." The black-robed man sneered.
Ling Xiuhan knew the black-robed figure's strength was not to be underestimated. He quickly calmed himself and began to think of a countermeasure. While dealing with the black-robed figure, he secretly cast a spell to stabilize Lan Yunyan's regenerating spirit.
During the fierce battle, Ling Xiuhan discovered that the source of the black-robed man's power seemed to come from a dark spiritual force beneath the secret chamber. He seized the opportunity and unleashed his "Earth-Breaking Slash" move, piercing the ground with his longsword. Powerful spiritual energy flowed down the blade into the ground, attempting to sever the black-robed man's power source.
The black-robed figure noticed Ling Xiuhan's intentions, and his expression changed. He increased the intensity of his attack, showering him with black spiritual energy beams like a torrential rain. Ling Xiuhan dodged left and right, still suffering numerous scratches from the beams. However, he gritted his teeth and persevered, devoting all his might to destroying the dark spiritual energy.
Finally, thanks to Ling Xiuhan's tireless efforts, the dark spiritual energy beneath the chamber was successfully cut off. The black-robed figure lost its source of power, its strength greatly reduced. Ling Xiuhan seized the opportunity to launch a fierce attack, his longsword darting around the black-robed figure like a nimble dragon. Gradually, the black-robed figure was overwhelmed and suffered multiple injuries.
"Do you think you can stop me like this? Even if I fail, she may not be able to truly resurrect!" The man in black robe roared in despair.
Ling Xiuhan's heart trembled. He knew what the black-robed man said might be true. But at this moment, he had no time to care about that. He had to defeat the black-robed man first. After a hard fight, Ling Xiuhan finally stabbed the black-robed man in the vitals with his sword, and the black-robed man disappeared in a wisp of black smoke.
Ling Xiuhan didn't even have time to catch his breath as he quickly turned to look at Lan Yunyan's spirit on the stone platform. By this time, the spirit's regeneration had ceased, and its light had dimmed. Ling Xiuhan was terrified. He poured all of his remaining spiritual energy into the spirit, attempting to reactivate the resurrection ritual.
Under Ling Xiuhan's continuous infusion of spiritual energy, Lan Yunyan's spirit began to respond again. The power of the Spirit Crystal Heart and the Spirit Feather Butterfly's wings began to merge again, and Lan Yunyan's figure gradually became clear. Her face was as beautiful as ever, and her tightly closed eyes trembled slightly.
Ling Xiu Han stared at Lan Yunyan nervously, his hands constantly forming seals, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead.
