Star Dragon God
After Uncle Fu arranged rooms for Huo Feng and the other three, they all enjoyed a nice bath.
Among them, Xuanran and Nangong Yu, due to their lower cultivation levels, began to meditate in their respective rooms after their baths to recover their Origin Force.
Huo Feng, on the other hand, wandered out of his room. He strolled alone in his villa. Although he couldn't see it, he felt a familiar sensation that he hadn't experienced in a long time, with memories of the past vividly replaying in his mind.
There were moments of laughter, sadness, longing, and confusion.
Just as Huo Feng was lost in these memories, Ruo Xi quietly entered. She noticed that Huo Feng seemed unaware of her presence, standing there with a silly smile in the open space of the villa.
Ruo Xi tiptoed behind Huo Feng and suddenly called out, "Hey!" Only then did Huo Feng snap back to reality and smiled at Ruo Xi, saying, "You've been jumping around with me all night; aren't you going to rest?"
"You should know that my cultivation level is higher than yours now. You don't need rest; do you think I would?" After a pause, Ruo Xi continued, "What were you thinking just now? You looked so absorbed. You—weren't thinking about that Jade Sister, were you?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? You're young; why are you thinking about such things?" Huo Feng lightly tapped Ruo Xi on the head.
Ruo Xi chuckled, and Huo Feng said, "Since you're not resting either, let's go play at my favorite place."
"Sure! I was just wondering what to do," Ruo Xi replied.
So the two of them left the villa. Huo Feng told Ruo Xi the route and then quickly followed her towards Purple Cloud Mountain.
As Huo Feng walked along the road, the members of the Huo Family hurriedly made way for him, calling out, "Young Master Huo Feng."
Whether they were older or younger than Huo Feng, they all addressed him this way and no longer dared to call him names like "waste" as they had before.
Huo Feng ignored them, knowing that just seeing him would make them feel intimidated. That was enough, after all, there were no deep grudges between them.
Although he couldn't see, following behind Ruo Xi, Huo Feng sensed the faint fluctuations of Origin Force emanating from her and kept pace without slowing down.
Soon, Huo Feng and Ruo Xi arrived at Purple Cloud Mountain.
Huo Feng said, "Ruo Xi, do you see that pit? Take me there."
"This Purple Cloud Mountain is just a hill; of course I can see that obvious pit. It's not far from here; let me take you over," Ruo Xi replied to Huo Feng.
Arriving next to the pit, Huo Feng sat down on the grass at the edge of the pit, and Ruo Xi followed suit beside him.
At this moment, Huo Feng said, "Do you know? In the past, when I was looked down upon and humiliated by others, I would come here. This pit used to be a giant rock. I would lie on that rock under the sun, calmly watching the empty clouds. All my frustrations would be cast away."
Huo Feng then lay back on the grass.
Lying quietly, the bright sunlight and warmth from his thoughts were soothing. Huo Feng felt a sense of homecoming, a strong sense of belonging that made him feel exceptionally comfortable.
Just then, he sensed Ice's voice, "Hey! How long do you plan to keep me locked in that broken Narcissistic Ring?"
Ice's somewhat complaining words pulled Huo Feng back from his state of comfort. He then remembered Ice's condition while dealing with the Shadow Demon Lord; Ice was not an ordinary beast and had been stuck in that confined space for so long—no wonder it was complaining.
With a thought, Huo Feng immediately released Ice.
Ruo Xi also sensed the fluctuations of Origin Force from this side and looked over. A palm-sized light blue beast appeared before them.
However, Ice didn't pay much attention to Ruo Xi. Finally able to breathe in fresh air outside, Ice noticed that there were no other beings around. Its body began to grow exponentially.
Until the ice transformed back into its original towering three-meter form, Ruo Xi frowned as she looked at the giant creature before her. With a complex expression, she said, "Is this the Ice Giant Dragon?"
The enlarged ice also turned to glance at Ruo Xi, suddenly leaping away with a surge of power.
At that moment, Ruo Xi threw a punch at the ice, and a stream of tiger-shaped Origin Force surged toward it. The tiger opened its mouth wide, and the sound of air being sliced through was like a series of tiger roars.
"Furious Roar"
Seeing this, the ice opened its mouth and unleashed a massive ice wall in front of itself.
"Ice Barrier"
As the Tiger Form Energy collided with the ice wall, it shattered and fell to the ground, but the fierce "tiger" also vanished.
All of this happened in an instant, and Huo Feng had not anticipated that the pleasant atmosphere would suddenly dissipate.
"Ruo Xi, Ice, what’s going on?" Huo Feng asked angrily, and in a flash, she appeared between them.
However, they seemed oblivious to Huo Feng's presence. Ruo Xi glared at the ice as if it were an enemy. The ice exhaled white vapor from its two large nostrils.
Ruo Xi had now returned to the Eighth Level of Human Pulse Realm, while the ice was at the advanced Earth Level. At this level, their aerial combat was hardly affected.
Both human and beast surged upward until they could no longer see Huo Feng below before stopping.
Ruo Xi said fiercely, "I didn't expect you to find yourself beside Brother Feng. I remember that battle; if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been separated from my parents. But thank you for allowing me to meet Brother Feng. Let's settle our grievances with one strike; regardless of the outcome, I will not attack you again."
Looking down, Ruo Xi noticed Huo Feng's figure becoming clearer. Then Ruo Xi's entire body radiated a Milky White stream of Origin Force, which gradually coalesced into a massive transparent white tiger enveloping her.
Ruo Xi crouched down like a tiger, mimicking its stance. In an instant, she appeared in front of the ice, extending her tiger claw to grasp at it.
"Tiger Spirit"
At that moment, Bing knew that Ruo Xi had unleashed her most powerful Combat Techniques and did not dare to be careless.
Centered around Bing, the area within a hundred meters instantly turned icy cold, as if the air itself was about to freeze. At this time, Ruo Xi's extended tiger claw slowed significantly.
"Ice Soul Lock"
If one thought that the Ice Soul Lock only had a slight effect on controlling movement, they were gravely mistaken. Ruo Xi had suffered from it in their previous battle.
Soon after, Ruo Xi felt her movements return, and the chill on her body dissipated. However, she suddenly sensed an internal coldness, as if her organs were about to freeze.
Ruo Xi did not dare to hesitate; she had originally planned to get closer and deliver another Iron Bone Poison Spike in this perfect form. But now she could only make a desperate grab, as the dangerous chill forced her to mobilize her Origin Force to resist it.
Bing, having exerted this Combat Techniques, also felt somewhat drained and could only extend her dragon claw to counteract.
