Heaven Defying Medical Consort - Chapter 28

Chapter 28: A Dragon and Phoenix Welcoming a Genius!

Looking at the things placed on the top floor, Xiao Muling lightly clicked her tongue and walked forward.

Even though the seventh floor was covered in a thick layer of dust, there were indeed many things here.

Standing here was indeed much harder than standing on the sixth floor.

“Xiao Muling!” Xiao Yi walked up quickly, panting slightly and sweating. He was shocked to see that Xiao Muling was fine!

Xiao Muling walked around the seventh floor before stopping.

The top floor was different from the lower floors. The middle shelf was separated from the bottom six floors, and the entire floor was connected.

Xiao Yi walked to her side and couldn’t keep a straight face when he saw her acting like nothing had happened.

“You don’t feel uncomfortable?” he asked suspiciously.

The top of the Hidden Pavilion contained a piece of Outer Heaven Mystic Rock left behind by the Xiao family’s ancestors. The weaker one was, the more they couldn’t approach it.

The reason why the ancestors had placed it in the Hidden Pavilion was to prevent their clansmen from deluding themselves into cultivating profound Spiritual Arts.

Due to this, the Xiao family’s foundation was much more stable than that of other families. They wouldn’t suffer backlash from qi deviation.

‘However, Xiao Muling doesn’t even know how to cultivate. How can she come up?’

“No, it’s very easy.” It was just that she might’ve felt a little uncomfortable earlier, but it was completely gone now.

‘Very easy!’ Xiao Yi heard thunder sound in his ears, and his mouth twitched. ‘The dragon and phoenix welcome the arrival of a genius! This prophecy was made when she was born. Genius? Could it be that this prophecy is going to be slowly fulfilled by her?’

“Elder, hide your expression,” Xiao Muling reminded with a faint smile.

If the others saw him like this, they would think that she had bullied him.

Looking at the ancient books on the shelf, she walked over and picked one up. Dust flew over, and she frowned as she turned to the first page.

This was a book that introduced the good techniques and Spiritual Arts of Summoning Spiritual Continent. On it were many names that she had never heard of before.

Behind those names was a rough record of why it could be recorded.

Xiao Muling flipped through the pages one by one. When she reached the last page, there wasn’t much content. There were only two words—Sky Spirit!

“Sky Spirit?” She wanted to know something else but realized that there were no other records of Sky Spirit.

It was recorded on the last page, but only its name remained—nothing else.

“It’s said that Sky Spirit is the most profound cultivation method of Martial Spiritual Yuan Masters. Nobody knows how powerful it is.”

They only knew that it had already disappeared from the world. If someone obtained it, their cultivation speed would be equivalent to traveling a thousand miles a day. Furthermore, it could be cultivated by any type of Martial Spiritual Yuan Master. While cultivating, it would also consolidate the cultivator’s constitution on its own. That was why everyone coveted it so much.

“But cultivating Sky Spirit isn’t that simple. There was once someone who obtained it but was unable to use it to cultivate. From then on, it disappeared without a trace. However, all the cultivators on the continent are looking for it.” Xiao Yi watched her stop at the last page and glance at it. Then, he adjusted his expression and explained solemnly.

“I see,” Xiao Muling murmured.

Her cultivation speed was quite fast. At the time, she had only cultivated for a short while before reaching the Spirit Cultivator rank.

After cultivating for the past few days, the speed at which her strength increased was also very high.

“Mn, Sky Spirit is a mental cultivation Spiritual Art that all of Spiritual Summoning Continent’s cultivators know of. Only it is known by everyone.” But that was all they knew.

Xiao Muling closed the book. “I’ll borrow this first.”

“It’s just an introduction to some Spiritual Arts and techniques. You can take a look at other martial techniques or mental cultivation techniques.” The Regent wasn’t going to take her out so that she could cultivate.

‘Even though I don’t know how she managed to reach the seventh floor, she shouldn’t be able to cultivate yet. She doesn’t have any martial spirit essence force on her.’

“I’ll take it,” Xiao Muling said. She was also interested in this book.

Xiao Yi coughed lightly and said, “There are all kinds of weapons and divine weapons in the lofts and rooms at the side. You can choose them yourself so that you can defend yourself.”

“I’ll go again later.” As she spoke, she lowered her head and walked in.

Xiao Yi watched her walk further in, and he stood there for a while, panting slightly and sweating again.

“I’ll wait for you downstairs. Come down immediately if you feel uncomfortable.” With that, he hurried downstairs.

Xiao Yi walked down the stairs as quickly as he could. Only then did he feel much more relaxed.

The top floor was still calm.

He didn’t know what Xiao Muling was doing up there and what she took. However, seeing that she was still up there and didn’t show any signs of being unable to withstand it and coming down, he frowned. ‘Even with my strength, I can’t withstand the pressure. How can Xiao Muling withstand it if she can’t cultivate? I don’t understand it at all!’

Xiao Muling didn’t know that there was such a magnetite in the Hidden Pavilion, nor did she know that there was such a thing. Otherwise, she would also be very curious about the reason.

She had only taken a few Spiritual Art books. The Xiao family only needed to learn a little of the Martial Skills and Spiritual Arts. The other spaces had them.

What she was most interested in were the cultivation methods and Spiritual Arts recorded in the book. However, she didn’t find anything useful here regarding her reversed energy flow.

Xiao Muling walked into a room by the side; it was also covered in a thick layer of dust.

She frowned and walked in.

She needed an item to store things. In her memory, she knew that cultivators in this world would bring along a storage space item for convenience.

These storage space items were specially refined by blacksmiths, and they had all kinds of appearances. Some were rings, and some were bracelets, but it was the same inside. Storage space items could only store some dead things, and living things couldn’t enter them. They were different from her space.

Xiao Muling wondered if there would be that kind of storage space item here; it was usually for convenience.

“Elder Xiao Yi, are there any storage space items in here?” Xiao Muling walked out of the room and stood in front of the top floor’s banister.

‘There are no weapons or storage space items here.’ Xiao Yi looked up and sighed. “Tell your father if you want it.”

‘I have to ask my father?’ Xiao Muling looked behind and shook her head. ‘Then, there’s nothing I want here. It’s better to go down.’

Walking down from the top floor, Xiao Yi thought of what Xiao Muling had just asked and said, “If you want to know more about the Xiao family, why don’t you search on the first floor?”

She asked these questions to help Xiao Canglan.

Xiao Muling suddenly felt that the old man in front of her was quite interesting. Everyone said that he was rigid and stubborn, but she didn’t think so.

“Elder Xiao Yi has been helping me since last time.”

‘He is still helping me now.’

“You are all children of the Xiao family, and you were right last time,” Xiao Yi said and walked into the room again.

Xiao Muling raised her eyebrows as a smile flashed across her eyes. ‘That’s it? That’s not necessarily the case, right?’

Putting away her thoughts, she walked to the shelf beside her and picked up a book.

Creak…

The tightly shut door was pushed open by someone.

The person outside was about to walk in, but the moment he saw Xiao Muling, his expression changed!
