Chapter 312 - 312 Burning Sky Incantation
312 Burning Sky Incantation
As for Shen Fei, his body seemed to have become much stronger.
The Flame Owl continued to eat the strength-enhancing fruits and pills that Shen Fei could offer it.
Gradually, Shen Fei felt as if his body was about to be torn apart. His body became densely covered in cuts and scars, and his wounds began to bleed. However, Shen Fei clenched his teeth and persevered.
He knew that he had to use the energy of this world to increase his strength. Otherwise, the only thing that awaited him was death.
Gradually, Shen Fei’s aura stabilized and was no longer out of control.
[The system has detected an evolved skill of the Flame Owl, do you wish to upgrade it?]
The system’s voice once again sounded in Shen Fei’s mind.
“Upgrade!” Shen Fei said without any hesitation.
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the upgraded skill of the Flame Owl: Burning Skies Incantation.]
[Burning Skies Incantation: An evolved skill of the Flame Owl. It has a terrifying destructive power that burns everything. It can burn mountains, boil seas, and even the sun, moon, and stars.]
[It was created by a cultivator of the burning skies realm, and its power is unparalleled. It has the power to burn the heavens and destroy everything!]
At these words, Shen Fei grew excited.
At this moment, the feathers on the Flame Owl’s body became even more dazzling as its body burned with fire. It was like a true god of fire.
“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl screeched and charged down. Its wings flapped fiercely, setting off a monstrous wave of fire that swept toward Shen Fei.
The waves of fire were several hundred meters tall and covered the sky as though the clouds had turned into a sea of fire. The scene was spectacular and shocking.
After the display of power, Shen Fei kept the Flame Owl back into his pocket dimension. A moment later, he opened his eyes. He had returned to the real world.
“Whew…” He took a deep breath, and his eyes refocused.
The Flame Owl not only had an increase in attack power, but its defense and speed had also increased.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Shen Fei frowned. He walked forward and opened the door. He saw a girl with a worried expression, anxiously looking at Shen Fei.
She was dressed in white, and her skin was fair and flawless. Her black eyes were like glittering gems that flickered with the light of wisdom, enhancing her beauty.
“Shen Fei,” the girl called out softly.
Seeing the girl, Shen Fei revealed a gentle smile. “Lilian.”
“Shen Fei, I haven’t seen you in a long time, so I came to visit.” Lilian smiled sweetly, revealing two cute dimples.
Shen Fei nodded and said, “Come in, we can have a chat.”
Lilian nodded and followed Shen Fei into the entryway. The space was very large and was filled with a smell that made one think of antique wood. It was also decorated with rare dried herbs. It gave one a luxurious feeling.
Then, she walked into the living room and saw all kinds of strange fruits and medicinal liquids on the table. She immediately became curious.
“Shen Fei, what are these?” she asked, pointing at the table.
“These are all spirit herbs and equipment that can increase one’s strength.” Shen Fei smiled, and then sat on a chair.
Lilian sat on the sofa and looked at Shen Fei, saying, “Shen Fei, your cultivation speed is really fast.”
“Hehe, I’m just lucky,” Shen Fei said modestly.
Lilian frowned slightly. She always felt that Shen Fei’s attitude was a little different from usual. She could not help but feel as though there was a distance between them.
Shen Fei looked at the pitch-black night sky outside the window and changed the topic. “Is there anything in particular you need me for?”
“Shen Fei, we’ve known each other for a long time. I want to ask: What are your plans for the future?” Lilian asked.
“Future? I do have a future, but it won’t be limited to the present,” Shen Fei said simply.
“You…” Lilian was stunned. She stared at Shen Fei with watery eyes, but then she bit her lip and lowered her head. She did not say anything more.
‘Could it be that Shen Fei only has Aloy in his eyes? But… I’m the one who grew up with him!’
“What is it?” Shen Fei frowned.
“I’m sorry, I’ve been rude. Did I disturb your rest?” Lilian wiped her tears and lifted her head. She forced a smile and said, “Oh right, Shen Fei, thank you for always taking care of me.”
Shen Fei’s brows had been furrowed, but then he relaxed and smiled again. “You’re not disturbing me. Just treat me as your sibling from now on. Don’t always think of yourself as a servant.”
Lilian sighed in her heart. She had hoped that Shen Fei would pay attention to her, but now it seemed that she did not linger in Shen Fei’s mind.
She pursed her lips and did not say anything in the end. Lilian only nodded gently.
Shen Fei suddenly recalled something and quickly asked, “By the way, what level is your Croix Silver Snake now?”
Lilian blushed and said, “It’s already a Count. It’s all thanks to your help. Otherwise, my spirit beast would have still stayed at the Baron rank.”
Lilian’s face was filled with relief. She believed that with her and her Croix Silver Snake’s hard work, they would definitely become strong. At that time, she would be worthy of Shen Fei.
At the thought of this, her gaze as she looked at Shen Fei became even brighter.
“Oh? It’s now a Count-rank spirit beast! That’s amazing!” Shen Fei laughed as he clapped his hands and praised.
“Hehe, the Croix Silver Snake was extraordinary to begin with. With the resources you gave, its strength has naturally improved by leaps and bounds!” Lilian said with a smile.
“Good girl.” Shen Fei laughed as he petted her jet-black hair. After that, he took out a few pills from his storage ring. “These pills are for you.”
He placed the pills in front of Lilian.
“These are… marrow cleansing pills?” Lilian asked in surprise.
This was a fifth-tier pill, and it was very expensive, yet Shen Fei took out three at once.
Lilian hurried to decline it, “Shen Fei, this marrow cleansing pill is too precious! I can’t take it, I…”
The marrow cleansing pill was extremely expensive to ordinary cultivators. However, to Shen Fei, it was just a drop in the bucket.
...
“When a spirit beast eats a marrow cleansing pill, its strength would increase. Just take it. You’re my little sister, so this is nothing,” Shen Fei said with a straight face.
“Sob…” Lilian could not help but cry. She threw herself into Shen Fei’s arms and sobbed. “Shen Fei, I know you’re good to me. However, this pill is too precious. I can’t take it!”
Shen Fei smiled helplessly. He could only patiently coax Lilian and say a few good words.
“Sob, you always treat me the best. I’ll definitely repay you in the future.” Lilian’s tears turned into laughter.
Shen Fei patted Lilian’s head and said in a pampering tone, “Silly girl.”
Lilian smiled sweetly, revealing a snaggle-toothed smile.
