Chapter 364: Chapter 227: Falling into a Trap

Fang Yue cautiously approached the ball of cyan Primordial Qi. He could feel the immense life force it contained.

For a Cultivator, this kind of Primordial Qi was undoubtedly an extremely precious treasure.

He extended his palm, preparing to take the cyan Primordial Qi for himself.

Just as Fang Yue’s palm was about to touch the ball of cyan Primordial Qi, he suddenly felt a powerful fluctuation emanate from within it. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

The ball of Primordial Qi seemed to have a life of its own. It actively dodged his touch, bobbing lightly in the air like a mischievous child.

Fang Yue was startled. He immediately realized this ball of cyan Primordial Qi was no ordinary thing.

He observed the ball of cyan Primordial Qi carefully and saw it slowly rotating in the air, emitting a faint cyan glow. The vibrant, life-filled aura made one feel as if they were in the midst of nature in springtime, brimming with the power of life.

Fang Yue took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement.

He knew that to capture this ball of cyan Primordial Qi, he had to remain calm and use the safest possible approach.

He decided to first use his own cultivation power to Sense the rhythm within the Primordial Qi, looking for the perfect moment to capture it.

He closed his eyes, extended his hands with palms facing up, and slowly approached the ball of cyan Primordial Qi.

He could feel a subtle connection forming between his cultivation power and the Primordial Qi, as if an invisible thread now bound them tightly together.

As time passed, Fang Yue’s Sensing of the cyan Primordial Qi grew stronger. He could clearly feel every slight fluctuation within the Primordial Qi, and could even predict its next move.

Finally, through his patience and perseverance, Fang Yue found the perfect opportunity to capture it.

He snapped his eyes open, swiftly clapping his hands together and firmly seizing the ball of cyan Primordial Qi in his palms.

In that instant, Fang Yue felt a torrent of immense life force pour into his body, as if every one of his cells was cheering in delight.

Immediately, Fang Yue began the Refinement of this ball of Cyan Wood Primordial Qi.

Fang Yue immediately sat down cross-legged and began to refine this precious ball of Cyan Wood Primordial Qi. He knew this process required immense patience and focus, and that he couldn’t afford the slightest distraction.

The Cyan Wood Primordial Qi slowly spun in his palm, emitting a faint cyan glow as it merged with his cultivation power.

Fang Yue could clearly feel the immense life force contained within this Primordial Qi. It was like an inexhaustible spring of life, providing endless energy for his cultivation.

As time passed, the Cyan Wood Primordial Qi gradually integrated with Fang Yue’s body.

His meridians, bones, organs, and even every single cell were greedily absorbing this immense life force.

Fang Yue could clearly feel his body undergoing a metamorphosis, as if he were a pupa breaking out of its cocoon, completely reborn.

During this process, Fang Yue’s cultivation realm did not increase.

However, he could feel that his physical body and the Primordial Qi within him had become more solid and pure, as if they had been repeatedly tempered and sublimated.

He knew this was all thanks to the Cyan Wood Primordial Qi; it had granted him a qualitative leap forward.

He slowly opened his eyes, a bright light flashing within them.

He knew that even though his cultivation realm hadn’t directly increased, the strengthening of his physical body and the increased purity of his Primordial Qi were of immense benefit to his cultivation journey.

Such a change would allow him to walk his future cultivation path more steadily and swiftly.

Fang Yue stood up and stretched his limbs.

Afterward, he looked around the area once more, and after finding nothing else of value, Fang Yue left by the same path he had taken to get there.

Just as he stepped out of the courtyard, Fang Yue discovered that Lin Wan’Er and her servant, who he thought had already left the village, were actually waiting for him outside the gate.

"Why are you two back?" Fang Yue asked, somewhat surprised to see Lin Wan’Er and her servant waiting outside.

Lin Wan’Er bit her lip, a fearful expression on her face. "There are... there are wolves outside... We want to go with you."

He glanced at Lin Wan’Er and her servant and saw that both of them looked terrified. They were clearly very worried about the wolves outside.

Fang Yue felt a little helpless. He had originally planned to travel alone, but it now seemed that if he didn’t take Lin Wan’Er and her servant with him, they would very likely run into danger.

He pondered for a moment before speaking. "Alright, you can come with me. But once we reach the next town, we’ll have to part ways."

The three of them traveled cautiously, constantly paying attention to their surroundings. Fang Yue walked in the lead, with Lin Wan’Er and her servant following closely behind him.

After walking for some time, Fang Yue suddenly stopped, his brow furrowed as he stared ahead.

Lin Wan’Er and her servant stopped as well, looking nervously at Fang Yue’s back.

"What’s wrong? Did you find something?" Lin Wan’Er couldn’t help but ask.

Fang Yue didn’t answer. Instead, he was quietly Sensing for any movement ahead. He could feel a faint, hidden trace of Qi, as if something was approaching them.

But when he tried to focus on it more carefully, he couldn’t feel anything at all.

Fang Yue shook his head, dismissing the doubt in his mind. He decided not to linger and continued forward.

He knew that this mountain forest did indeed hold some unknown dangers, but as long as they were careful, there shouldn’t be any mishaps.

The three continued on cautiously, remaining vigilant of their surroundings. Lin Wan’Er and her servant stuck close behind Fang Yue, not daring to let their guard down for a moment.
