279: The girl's thoughts on clearing away the white mist

Half an hour later.

Su Yun and the other two arrived at the summit of Yanguang Mountain.

The summit of Yanguang Mountain was shrouded in a thick layer of white mist. There were no Spiritual Plants around this mist; everything was barren, and the skeletons of many Yao Beasts could be faintly seen on the ground.

"This mist seems to be poisonous."

Su Yun felt a peculiar spiritual power contained within the mist, and there were traces of corrosion on the surrounding ground.

"I have some Grade Six Detoxification Pills here. Young Master Su can take one; it can make you immune to most toxins for a period of time."

Chu Ningyue took out over a dozen bottles of Grade Six Detoxification Pills from her Storage Ring and was about to hand them to Su Yun.

"There's no need, Miss Chu."

Su Yun waved his hand and said.

As expected of the daughter of the Treasure Pavilion's Chief Pavilion Master, she was indeed wealthy.

A single one of these Grade Six Detoxification Pills would cost many Spirit Stones, yet Chu Ningyue casually brought out over a dozen bottles.

"Young Master Su, I have many of these Medicinal Pills. These are for you!"

Chu Ningyue said hurriedly.

Then, she directly grabbed Su Yun's hand, intending to shove the Medicinal Pill bottles into it.

This was one of the few ways she could help Su Yun.

After all, with her current strength, she couldn't help Su Yun at all, so she could only assist with Medicinal Pills.

As the Young Miss of the Treasure Pavilion, she had many different types of Medicinal Pills in her Storage Ring.

"It's fine, I have a way to deal with this mist,"

Su Yun explained.

Seeing that Su Yun was unwilling to accept the Medicinal Pills, Chu Ningyue felt a sense of frustration.

She thought that after spending so much time together over the past few days, her relationship with Su Yun should be quite good.

Yet, Su Yun still refused her Medicinal Pills.

Noticing the disappointed expression on Chu Ningyue's pretty face, Su Yun continued,

"Miss Chu, you'll see in a moment!"

For him, there was no need to take any detoxification pills.

The simplest way was just to get rid of this white mist.

When encountering trouble, just solve the source of the trouble!

"Blazing Sun Sword Art!"

"Heavenly Flame Art!"

Holding the Flowing Cloud Sword, Su Yun unleashed the powerful Glazed Sacred Fire, which transformed into Blazing Sun Sword Qi capable of incinerating everything. It instantly covered the area of the white mist, and then these Blazing Sun Sword Qi manifestations transformed into dozens of Blazing Suns, each thousands of feet wide, emitting a dazzling red and white spiritual light.

The originally dim summit of Yanguang Mountain was instantly illuminated, and the intense heat seemed ready to melt everything.

Su Yun controlled the Blazing Suns to crash into the mist. The Blazing Suns contained not only fire that could burn everything but also a vast amount of Devouring Power, clearing the surrounding white mist in an instant.

Immediately after, under his control, the Blazing Suns changed direction and flew into the sky before exploding. The dazzling spiritual light startled all the Cultivators who were still exploring near the mountainside of Lingguang Mountain.

"What happened?"

"That's the summit!"

"Could a powerful Yao Beast have appeared?"

"Could it be an attack released by that person from earlier?"

"This is too strong! How is this an attack with the power of the Spirit Transformation Realm? It's almost at the Dao Integration Realm!"

"Fortunately, I didn't choose to continue up the mountain just now. If I had provoked that person, with my strength, I probably wouldn't have been able to take a single hit before being killed."

"You still want to take a hit? Probably just the spiritual power aftermath of his Spell would be enough to kill you!"

Many Cultivators secretly rejoiced. They continued their exploration near the mountainside. Some Cultivators had originally harbored hopes of sneakily exploring the summit later, but seeing this powerful attack, their thoughts vanished instantly. They all stayed obediently near the mountainside, not daring to continue up the mountain... The summit of Yanguang Mountain.

After the mist dissipated, several towering giant trees were revealed.

On these giant trees were dozens of pale yellow fruits. These fruits emitted a faint halo, and a sweet fragrance spread in all directions.

"These are spirit nurturing fruits. It's said to be a fruit rich in spiritual power with no special effects; its only use is to increase cultivation without side effects. However, it only works on Cultivators below the Soul Emergence Realm, and the specific effect varies from person to person."

Chu Ningyue's beautiful eyes lit up as she instantly recognized the type of fruit on the trees, which was exactly the same as what she had seen in ancient texts.

This kind of fruit would be very helpful for her current Realm advancement.

"There shouldn't be any other danger. Let's refine these spirit nurturing fruits right here!"

Su Yun released his Divine Sense to observe the surroundings and found no guardian Yao Beasts.

This wasn't surprising, though. From the large number of Yao Beast skeletons on the ground, it could be seen that the layer of white mist outside had already blocked the Yao Beasts of Yanguang Mountain from approaching.

"Alright."

Chu Ningyue nodded and walked gracefully to the spirit nurturing fruit tree. With a wave of her jade-like hand, she began to pick the spirit nurturing fruits.

Xiaodie also stepped forward to help.

Meanwhile, Su Yun went to another spirit nurturing fruit tree and circulated his spiritual power to pick all the spirit nurturing fruits.

"Let's try eating one."

He picked up a spirit nurturing fruit and ate it, tasting a hint of sweetness. Then, the spirit nurturing fruit turned into a stream of pure spiritual power that integrated directly into his body. This spiritual power was very easy to absorb and exceptionally gentle. However, the only downside was that there was too little of it. For an ordinary Spirit Transformation Realm Cultivator, it might increase their cultivation significantly, but for him, the spiritual power content was too low.

All these trees combined had fewer than a hundred spirit nurturing fruits. Absorbing them all probably wouldn't do much for him, but they would be very useful for Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators. He could take them back for Yuyao and the others.

Just then, Chu Ningyue came to Su Yun with dozens of spirit nurturing fruits, saying with a smile:

"Young Master Su, these are all the spirit nurturing fruits from the other trees. I've picked them for you."

Then, she intended to give all the spirit nurturing fruits to Su Yun.

"Miss Chu, you should take some as well!"

Su Yun said directly.

"That wouldn't be right. I didn't really contribute much; that white mist was cleared by Young Master Su."

Chu Ningyue said somewhat hesitantly.

After all, Su Yun had done everything just now, while she hadn't helped at all.

"It's fine, everyone present gets a share."

"Or is it that Miss Chu doesn't consider me a friend?"

Su Yun chuckled.

"No, I... alright then, thank you, Young Master Su."

Chu Ningyue's pretty face flushed slightly, and her heart felt warm.

She didn't believe that these spirit nurturing fruits had no effect on Su Yun.

Su Yun must have given them to her on purpose.

Su Yun was really quite good to her!

Could it be that Su Yun also liked her but just didn't know how to express it?

Recalling Su Yun's handsome figure when he attacked earlier, the more she thought about it, the more she felt it was true.

Otherwise, why would Su Yun have protected her behind him and dealt with those people when they were provoked earlier?

Su Yun definitely liked her too.

It was just that for some reason, he hadn't expressed it yet.

At this thought, Chu Ningyue felt her whole body go soft, and a feeling of joy welled up in her heart.
