Chapter 376: 376
Taking a deep breath, Luoluo took a step towards the pond, but this one step was already an immense challenge . The pressure on her was growing increasingly overwhelming with that one step, and she started sweating, her breathing became hurried .
Xue Wei awoke from his cultivation and looked at Luoluo with a frown on his face; the others were also observing her curiously .
What was going on?
Luoluo’s face was scrunched up in an ugly expression, her brows furrowed .
She did not stop after one step but took another step, followed by a third . Gasping for air, anyone could see that something was happening within Luoluo as she was advancing to the lake . Still, the strange thing was that this overwhelming pressure was only on Luoluo and no one else .
Xue Wei went to her side with no problems, but just as he was about to speak to her, Luoluo shook her head . "Let me deal with this," she said, her eyes glistening with excitement, and also puzzlement .
Hearing her gasp out the words, Xue Wei nodded his head . He then turned around towards the others, and said, "We are staying here tonight . Everyone, settle down . We will be cultivating and taking turns to look after Luoluo . "
The others quickly agreed . They all sat down one after another and took out their resources from their storage treasures . These resources had all been scavaged within the Ascended’s Realm, and they used them to increase their cultivation .
The Vermilion Birds were slightly uncomfortable as they were in the group . They did not respect Xue Wei at the same level as the others, so they had gathered in a group of their own far away from the others .
Looking at them like this, Xue Wei had no interest in looking after them, but at the same time, the group of Vermilion Birds was also aware that they could not survive in the Ascended Realm on their own, so they had to seek shelter in a larger group .
Xue Wei’s group contained numerous amounts of Saints, even Earth Saints . Although they did not respect Xue Wei, they respected these Earth Saints .
Xue Wei could not be bothered to deal with them . If they wanted to tag along, then they could, but he would give them no resources unless they participated in the battles .
He was not a saint, and this group had annoyed him time and time again . He had done everything in his power to help them, this time even saving them, but in the end, they had still been ungrateful .
Silence descended upon the group of people . Still, while Xue Wei was cultivating with all his might, Lin Xiao was observing Luoluo, he was feeling uncomfortable and worried about her .
The little figure of Luoluo was trembling as she was inching closer and closer to the lake . However, anyone who was coming towards her was being shooed away in an instant .
They all understood that the pond was not as innocent and natural as it seemed . The Vermilion Birds had been tempted to enter it themselves to start looking for fortunate encounters, but they dared not since the other group had said that no one was to get into a close proximity of the pond . If they went against their words, they would lose more than they would gain .
Luoluo spent half the night to take the few steps towards the shore, and as she arrived, the mist that had been hovering above it, suddenly split into two in front of her, but at the same time, it shrouded her from the back, ensuring that no one could see what was happening within .
Luoluo vanished in the mist, and they all felt worried, but they did not rush to her side; neither did they hurry to drag her out .
They could not hear any sounds from within the mist; all they could sense was that the thick mist had swallowed Luoluo whole .
Luoluo, who was within the mist, was not blinded as it had split in front of her, making a line towards the center of the pond .
In the center of the pond was a big ice sculpture of a winged snake . The blue eyes were glistening, the scaled body releasing an immense pressure .
Although this was unlike anything she had seen before, Luoluo was not afraid . It was as if this snake was not hostile towards her .
She continued to struggle to move forward . Her movements were not smooth, but they were not as troubled as before . Seeing the snake had made her feel a sense of belonging, and eagerness was creeping up within her heart .
When she reached the side of the snake, she could not help but reach out her hand and touch it . The cool, smooth touch on her hand was gentle .
Just as she touched the snake, all the mist that had been above the lake suddenly flooded into her body, and the snake shrunk at speed visible to the naked eye .
Within moments, it had become a small bracelet that was on her arm, but Luoluo noticed nothing . The moment the mist came into contact with her body, Luoluo lost her consciousness .
Everyone had stopped cultivating and were now observing the mist . The moment they heard any noise from within, they would enter to get Luoluo out, but what happened stunned them .
They saw how the mist all poured into her body, and her body began shining with a golden hue . It was clear that this energy was stimulating her body in one way or another .
Lin Xiao hurried into the lake and took her out, placing her on the ground and observed her body .
