297: During rest time, Death Storm

Su Yun felt a cold and soft jade hand press against his back.

"Yun... Junior Brother Yun."

"I'll give you a massage."

Luo Qingshuang's light blue eyes flashed with a hint of shyness as she spoke hesitantly.

A faint blush appeared on her skin, which was originally as fair as white jade.

She had already mentally prepared herself to help Junior Brother Yun with a massage.

But for some reason, the moment she touched Junior Brother Yun's back, she felt extremely shy.

Is this Junior Brother Yun's back?

So warm.

"There's no need!"

"Senior Sister Qingshuang, you fought for a long time just now too. You should rest and recover your Spiritual Qi."

Su Yun felt that something was not quite right with the jade hand on his back.

Is this a massage?

Why is it just pressing there without moving?

"It's fine."

Hearing Su Yun's words, Luo Qingshuang snapped out of it. She realized her hand had been staying on one spot since she put it there.

She hurriedly began to massage him.

Speaking of massages, she had only ever helped her Revered Master with them before.

However, her Revered Master said her hands were too cold and didn't ask her to continue.

"My hands aren't too cold, are they?"

Luo Qingshuang asked somewhat nervously.

Su Yun shook his head:

"Not at all, it's very cool and refreshing."

He possessed a fire-attribute Physique, so how could he be afraid of the cold?

If anything, Luo Qingshuang's cool jade hands massaging his back made him feel more energized.

"That's good then."

Luo Qingshuang breathed a sigh of relief.

She extended both jade hands to massage Su Yun simultaneously.

But because Su Yun's Physical Body was too powerful, massaging him was very strenuous; her ice-blue hair draped down.

Because the two were very close, Su Yun could clearly smell the faint fragrance coming from Luo Qingshuang's body.

For a moment, neither of them spoke.

Luo Qingshuang silently massaged Su Yun while constantly feeling the warmth of his back... "Senior Sister Qingshuang, that's enough.

Go take a rest!"

Su Yun said directly.

After all, Luo Qingshuang had been massaging him for so long, she was probably tired.

"Okay."

Luo Qingshuang withdrew her jade hands somewhat reluctantly.

When she had impulsively hugged Junior Brother Yun last time, she hadn't felt it carefully.

But now that she was paying attention, she felt that Junior Brother Yun had a very good build.

She didn't want to let go; she wanted to feel it a bit more.

"Let's continue exploring the Dragon Tomb Secret Realm in half an incense stick's time!"

Su Yun suggested.

Luo Qingshuang nodded, then went to the side to sit cross-legged and began to recover the Spiritual Qi she had lost earlier.

Inside the Heavenly Flame Palace, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was extremely abundant—one could even say it was more plentiful than the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the Great Profound Realm.

The Spiritual Qi within Luo Qingshuang's body recovered rapidly.

Su Yun also sat cross-legged to Cultivate for a while.

Just then, he suddenly noticed something was wrong outside.

"What's the situation?"

Su Yun immediately activated the Heavenly Flame Palace to bring up images of the outside world.

He saw a storm suddenly whipping up within the Forest of Dragon Demons outside.

This storm wasn't an ordinary spiritual wind, but a death qi storm formed from thick Death Qi. Countless gaps were instantly blown into the surrounding giant trees by these storms, and a large number of branches were corroded away. In just a few breaths, half of the nearby giant trees were gone, and the ground became pitted and uneven.

"It seems this is a storm formed by the Death Qi in the Dragon Tomb Secret Realm,"

Su Yun guessed.

He discovered that the Death Qi contained in this storm reached the power of the Soul Emergence Realm.

If an ordinary Soul Transformation Realm Cultivator encountered a death qi storm, they would be heavily injured if not killed.

"It seems the night is not suitable for exploration.

The night in this Dragon Tomb Secret Realm is likely quite dangerous.

Better observe a bit more."

Subsequently, Su Yun began to continue observing the death qi storm outside... Elsewhere in the Forest of Dragon Demons.

Quite a few teams of the Yao Race encountered this death qi storm and soon suffered heavy casualties, only surviving by relying on many life-saving trump cards.

At this time, within the team of Dragon Clan Demon Cultivators.

"Dragon Guard Formation!"

Over twenty Dragon Clan Demon Cultivators immediately arranged a Formation in a profound manner to resist this powerful death qi storm.

The various attributes of Spiritual Qi within their bodies converged, transforming into five giant dragon shadows that formed a massive barrier to block the death qi storm. However, this barrier still found it difficult to completely block the intrusion of Death Qi.

Many Dragon Clan Demon Cultivators were hit by the Death Qi that rushed into the barrier and were instantly heavily injured. However, due to the effect of their powerful Dragon Clan Bloodline, their injuries were recovering, and they were still barely able to hold on.

Not far from this group of Dragon Clan Demon Cultivators, Lin Batian was resisting these death qi storms alone.

Originally, those Dragon Clan Demon Cultivators were not very willing to be on the same team as him.

After his previous failed attempt.

Those Dragon Clan Demon Cultivators ignored him even more.

They simply treated him as if he didn't exist.

"This death qi storm is such a nuisance,"

Lin Batian said with a dark expression.

These death qi storms were too corrosive, continuous, and pervasive.

At first, it was easy for him to resist, but after a while, he began to find it a bit strenuous.

"Could Su Yun have been taken care of by this death qi storm?"

Lin Batian suddenly thought.

"I wonder how Qing Shuang is doing?"

He was suddenly a bit anxious and really wanted to go find Luo Qingshuang.

Unfortunately, he had no idea where Luo Qingshuang was.

If Luo Qingshuang were heavily injured and he performed a hero-saves-the-beauty act, wouldn't he be able to gain her favor?

But this was all based on the assumption that Su Yun and Luo Qingshuang had no defensive trump cards.

If they had defensive trump cards, they could probably easily resist the death qi storm.

This would also be good, as it could deplete Su Yun's defensive trump cards, so that when he took action later, he wouldn't encounter obstacles.

Thinking of this, Lin Batian abruptly increased the circulation of his Spiritual Qi. Five types of dragon shadows were released from his body, turning into a barrier that firmly protected him in the center, while the surrounding death qi storm directly attacked the dragon shadows.

The dragon shadows were constantly being corroded, and then under the injection of his powerful Spiritual Qi, they began to recover continuously.

Subsequently, while resisting the death qi storm, he also began to search everywhere for a cave that could withstand the death qi storm... Inside the Heavenly Flame Palace.

After a period of meditation, the Spiritual Qi in Luo Qingshuang's body had fully recovered.

She opened her eyes and immediately looked towards Su Yun's position.

A moment later, Luo Qingshuang's pretty face turned slightly red, and she looked away.

She didn't know what was wrong, but after she finished massaging Su Yun just now, she had been reminiscing about that warm feeling from his body.

She wanted to feel it again.

But she was only Junior Brother Yun's Senior Sister!

How could she do such a thing?

What if Junior Brother Yun misunderstood?

Thinking of this, Luo Qingshuang shook her head, not daring to think further:

"Junior Brother Yun."

"Are we continuing to explore the Secret Realm now?"

Su Yun also opened his eyes at this time:

"Senior Sister Qingshuang, I'm afraid we'll have to rest a bit longer."

"Hmm?"

"What happened?"

A hint of confusion flashed in Luo Qingshuang's beautiful eyes as she asked directly.
