Chapter 121: Xiaozhi’s Dream

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The remains of the dead tree melted like wax. In an instant, it covered Xiaozhi’s white jade scar.

Then, the flowing dead wood slowly solidified and turned into scales with wood patterns. Then, it slowly disappeared under Xiaozhi’s skin.

Xiaozhi’s breathing was steady, and there was even a faint smile on her lips.

“It’s effective!”

The white jade scar was slowly fading and becoming shallow.

Lin Yan couldn’t figure out if there would be any terrible consequences when the Spirit Marrow fragment took effect.

However, in Xiaozhi’s situation, any consequences would have to wait until he woke her

up.

He immediately took out the remaining dozen pieces and stuck them on the white jade scar on Xiaozhi’s arm.

The wreckage was not hindered at all. Once it touched Xiaozhi, it immediately fused into her.

As the remains fused into her one by one, not only did this white jade scar quickly become shallow, but the other scars and spots on Xiaozhi’s body also quickly faded and disappeared.

By the time the last of the remains were completely integrated, Xiaozhi’s body had completely returned to normal. Only the scar on her arm still had a shallow mark, like a wooden scale embedded in her arm.

Xiaozhi’s eyelids opened slightly and slowly. Her eyes lit up as she looked at Lin Yan. “Brother!”

“Xiaozhi!”

She was finally awake!

He picked up Xiaozhi and rubbed her head. Lin Yan suddenly relaxed.

They comforted each other.

Lin Yan asked Xiaozhi and found out that although Xiaozhi had been unconscious recently, she had fallen into a special dream and could occasionally sense the outside world.

For example, she could vaguely feel that someone was feeding her and taking care of her while wiping her body.

Especially when Lin Yan pasted the complete Spirit Marrow on Xiaozhi’s body just now, Xiaozhi felt extremely strong and was about to wake up!

“In my dream, I seemed to have been rooted in the ground and couldn’t move at all. My surroundings were filled with thick fog, and there were many mountains that were very tall and 1 couldn’t see clearly.

“Suddenly, a very, very ugly, very bad bug appeared in my dream. It kept biting my hand.

“It was really ugly. It had four eyes and a huge mouth!

“How scary!

“I was very afraid. I cried and begged it. 1 kept telling it not to bite me. 1 was very thin and not delicious at all.

“But it didn’t listen to me at all. It just kept biting.”

Lin Yan’s heart tightened when he saw the fear on Xiaozhi’s face.

“What happened next?”

“After that, the big worm kept biting me until I broke.

“Its head was so big, but strangely, it actually crawled its head in through the wound on my arm!

“I don’t know how it stuffed such a big head into my hand.

“I feel it drilling into my arm wound and crawling into my body. It’s so swollen and painful!

“After that, I felt my brother!”

Xiaozhi jumped up excitedly and stood on the bed. “I feel Brother! Brother grabbed Big Bug’s butt and pulled him out. Big Bug was still very angry, but it was useless. You still pulled it out of the dream!”

Lin Yan was silent. So this was the process of Spirit Marrow fusion in Xiaozhi’s eyes?

“What happened after that?”

“Later on, I felt something cold crawl into my hand. It was neither painful nor itchy. Then, I felt that I… was getting bigger and bigger!”

Lin Yan was slightly stunned. He sized Xiaozhi up. Not to mention growing up, Xiaozhi’s height was almost the same as half a year ago.

“It’s not growing taller, it’s, it’s…”

Xiaozhi kept gesturing with her hands. Lin Yan quickly understood that she didn’t mean that she had grown taller, but that her body had become huge?

“You felt bigger. Was there anything else in the dream?”

Since she had become bigger, there had to be something to refer to.

Xiaozhi looked a little embarrassed. “I only saw strange mountains everywhere in the dream, and they were all very tall. However, they were all in a thick fog, so I couldn’t see anything clearly.”

Xiaozhi was still young and her ability to express herself was limited. Coupled with the fact that she was half asleep, there was no effective information at all.

Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at the wooden scale mark on Xiaozhi’s hand and found some ink ash. He smeared the mark and the surrounding skin black and wrapped it in a gray cloth.

“Xiaozhi, be careful not to let others see this mark.”

“Xiaozhi understands!”

Lin Yan took out the remaining 13 Spirit Marrows and directly activated the Golden Bodhi Scripture to absorb them completely, filling up the Nine Wisdom Bodhi with 7.5 Wisdom Holes.

Then, he took six and sewed them into Xiaozhi’s clothes. The remaining seven were placed in the box in the room.

“Xiaozhi, if you suddenly feel sleepy again in the future, take out these things and paste them on the mark on your arm. Do you remember?”

“Xiaozhi will remember!”

He seemed to have found a solution.

However, Lin Yan’s brows were solemn, and he actually felt a little uneasy.

These wood-patterned scales did not look like they belonged to ordinary people. If others discovered them, she might be in danger.

The most troublesome thing was what exactly was this Spirit Marrow remains?

If he used it to solve Xiaozhi’s problem, would it cause bigger problems in the future?

His gaze focused again. So all the mysteries still had to be solved if he returned to the depths of the crack to search?

The next day, when Zang Wei, Xie Lingyan, and the others saw that Xiaozhi had woken up again and was fine, they heaved a sigh of relief.

After Lin Yan remained silent about the reason for Xiaozhi’s awakening, no one asked further. They could already tell that Lin Yan and Xiaozhi were hiding a lot of secrets, but they tacitly maintained their silence.

“Lin Yan, where did you get this statue?”

Pang Feiyan lifted the black cloth. Her face was flushed red, but her eyes were shining as she kept looking at the things under the black cloth.

Under the black cloth was the statue of the naked woman.

Now that it had been pieced together by Pang Feiyan, she observed it in high spirits. From time to time, she would turn her head and size Xie Lingyan’s chest.

Lin Yan:”

H

Xie Lingyan patted Pang Feiyan’s head and pulled her up. An awkward expression appeared on her bright face.

She held a sickle blade of a insect monster in her hand. As she waved it, it rustled. “This sickle blade is extremely sharp. It’s sharper than any knife I’ve seen in Ding’an City. If my master was still around, he would definitely like it very much…”

Her expression gradually darkened.

Lin Yan casually told him about his encounter with the insect monsters and the incident in the palace ruin, but he didn’t mention that he had discovered them in the poisonous fog.

Zang Wei reached out and touched the blade. “It’s so sharp. Isn’t the strength of such a insect monster comparable to the Tough Realm?”

His and Xie Lingyan’s gazes naturally converged on Lin Yan, and wordless shock flashed across their eyes.

Forget about the aura last night. No matter how one thought about it, the seven to eight saber arms and sickle blades on the ground were an extremely dangerous scene.

However, Lin Yan only used the words “hunt and counterattack” to describe it?

“I have plenty of saber arms. If you like them, I’ll give you a few.”

Lin Yan didn’t say anything.

He picked four of them and wrapped them in a black cloth. Together with the woman’s sculpture, he wrapped them tightly in a black cloth and carried them on his back before setting off again.

He planned to ask Elder Xu again this time and kill more insect monsters to accumulate Spirit Marrow. He did not know if Xiaozhi’s illness would happen again.

He ran all the way and soon arrived outside the Song family’s camp.

From afar, there were clearly fewer people in the Song family camp and the Void Fist Sect camp.

The Song family members were not much fewer, but half of the leather-armored soldiers patrolling were gone.

There were only a few yellow-robed disciples left in the Void Fist Sect camp. The others had disappeared.

Elder Xu had told him that the Void Fist Sect and the Song family seemed to be connected by marriage, but in fact, the two of them looked harmonious but were at odds. They were wary of each other and did not trust each other.

This was also the reason why he was not worried that the Song family would make things difficult for Elder Xu and Senior Sister Chen after he was discovered yesterday.

Lin Yan lowered the sculpture and saber arm on his back and hid them on a hidden high tree branch. He only took one of the saber arms and the face of the Buddha girl sculpture. He wrapped it in black cloth and carried it on his back.

He was originally worried about how to infiltrate the Song family after his identity was discovered yesterday.

However, he did not expect that more than half of the patrols in the Song family’s camp had been reduced, and there were many gaps.

For someone with his speed and strength, the difficulty of infiltrating became simple.

Lin Yan observed for a moment and quickly found the edge of a camp. There were about ten breaths of time between the two patrols.

Taking advantage of the next defense change, Lin Yan transformed into a fine bolt of lightning. In just four breaths, he crossed a thousand feet, flipped over the fence, and silently entered a tent.

This was a single tent. There was no one inside, but there were a few gorgeous clothes hanging.

Wearing this outfit was too big a target. Lin Yan visited two or three empty tents and found a soldier armor to change into. He walked with his head held high and arrived outside the tent where Senior Sister Chen was last time.

There was actually no one guarding outside the tent this time. Lin Yan walked in and opened the tent to take a look.

“Huh? Where are they?”

Senior Sister Chen and Elder Xu were actually not around.

Thinking of the Song family and the Void Fist Sect, most of them were not around.

“Senior Sister Chen and Elder Xu are here to help the Song family decipher the ancient words… Could it be that they found some ruins?”

However, with the poisonous fog spreading, even if it was a ruin, how could they enter?

As he was thinking, many voices came from afar.

Lin Yan looked over and raised his eyebrows slightly. Someone was here!

A large group of people, fully equipped, slowly retreated from the direction of the poisonous fog.

Lin Yan opened the tent and hid in Senior Sister Chen’s tent. He looked out through the gap in the tent curtain..
