384: Chapter 384 Successfully Wins Over Jin Wulan's Heart
In that Chaos, the phantoms of countless powerful Grandmist Divine Beasts flickered in and out of existence, and the Aura they exuded was heart-palpitating.
However, when the gazes of these phantoms touched the Heavenly Emperor Hall, looks of fear appeared on their faces in unison.
These phantoms did not linger for long; they merely nodded slightly in the direction of the Heavenly Emperor Hall before slowly dissipating like smoke, as if they had never appeared at all.
Cao Yang, standing inside the Heavenly Emperor Hall, witnessed this scene and was filled with confusion.
He couldn't help but wonder what these powerful Grandmist phantoms represented and why they showed such obvious awe toward the Heavenly Emperor Hall.
Within his own Inner Universe, Cao Yang could clearly perceive that these phantoms were merely illusory existences; they possessed neither the Aura of a true spirit nor the slightest fluctuation of intelligence, clearly being nothing more than lifeless objects.
Yet, such lifeless objects had actually taken the initiative to bow to the Heavenly Emperor Hall—this was truly inconceivable!
Cao Yang widened his eyes, watching the scene before him dissipate in disbelief, his mind constantly pondering the reason behind it.
However, those Grandmist Divine Beast phantoms could not see Cao Yang because of the Invincible Domain; no one could see Cao Yang unless he willed it.
Just as the many powerful phantoms of Grandmist Divine Beasts appeared like ghosts in the Chaos outside, a sudden storm was stirred up within the Heavenly Emperor Hall.
In an instant, a deep blue light erupted from Jinwu Lanxin's body like a volcanic eruption.
This light was like a giant sun, exuding heart-palpitating energy fluctuations.
Surprisingly, this deep blue sun was quite similar to the sun behind the powerful Golden Crow Clan phantom that had appeared outside the Heavenly Emperor Hall earlier, but it was also different.
The sun in that phantom was merely an illusory image, while the deep blue sun erupting from Jinwu Lanxin was a tangible existence.
Once this deep blue sun appeared, it expanded at an astonishing speed, enveloping the entire Heavenly Emperor Hall in the blink of an eye.
The massive deep blue light it released was like a surging tide, instantly submerging all places except for those mysterious sealed areas.
Under the illumination of this dazzling light, the originally dim corners of the Heavenly Emperor Hall were lit up one by one, and everything previously hidden in the darkness had nowhere to hide.
If not for the blessing of the Invincible Domain, Cao Yang probably wouldn't have even been able to penetrate this powerful deep blue light. These rays were simply too dazzling and powerful, as if they could swallow everything.
Cao Yang couldn't help but marvel at how powerful the phenomenon of a Grandmist-level Physique was; this was something he had completely not anticipated.
If not for the Heavenly Emperor Hall tightly containing these powerful phenomena, the power of these phenomena would likely have been released directly into the outside Chaos World, attracting the attention of those powerful Chaos Emperor Realm experts.
Recalling his own promotion to a Grandmist Physique, Cao Yang knew that his own Physique phenomena had been filtered by default by the System Loli, which he had also agreed to, otherwise his Physique phenomena would have been even more powerful.
Furthermore, the Aura on Jinwu Lanxin was increasing at an astonishing speed, as if she were about to break through to that remarkable Chaos Supreme Realm.
Cao Yang, standing on the side, felt this deeply, and a sense of gratification couldn't help but well up in his heart.
After all, if Jinwu Lanxin could successfully break through, he would no longer need to spend precious hongmeng sign-in counts to help her improve her cultivation base.
However, at the same time, a trace of regret flashed through Cao Yang's heart—in this way, he seemed to have missed an excellent Opportunity to gain Jinwu Lanxin's favor.
Cao Yang pondered to himself, when suddenly, a question arose in his mind: "System, I feel like there isn't much difference between my Physique and Jinwu Lanxin's Physique! Could it be that Grandmist-level Physiques are all much the same?"
"Beep, Master, actually there are still some subtle differences." The System Loli's voice rang in Cao Yang's mind.
"However, Grandmist-level Physiques are indeed all very powerful; none of them are weak. The reason Xiao Tong purchased such Physiques for Master and Jinwu Lanxin was mainly determined by Master's financial resources.
However, Master, you don't need to worry about this at all. Once you have enough hongmeng sign-in counts in the future, you can still continue to upgrade your Physique!"
"Alright!" Cao Yang sighed helplessly, pondering to himself.
He touched his System pocket; indeed, he seemed a bit destitute right now.
However, he was not discouraged by this, because he knew that as long as he persisted, there would always be a turning point.
Cao Yang thought to himself that once the xin-shen vessel arrived at a place with major powers, the situation would definitely be different.
By then, perhaps he would be able to encounter a Child of Destiny or a Daughter of Destiny who possessed Chaos Fortune.
These people were extremely rare existences, and their appearance was often accompanied by great Opportunity; of course, for him, this Opportunity was hongmeng sign-in counts.
Once he encountered such people, Cao Yang could obtain more hongmeng sign-in counts through the invincible sign-in system. For him, this was undoubtedly a huge boost, allowing him to develop better and faster in this unknown-filled Chaos World.
Thinking of this, Cao Yang's mood improved slightly.
However, he also realized that he could no longer call these people Child of Destiny as he had before.
After all, there was no Heavenly Dao in the Chaos World, so it was more appropriate to use "Child of Chaos" to describe them.
Behind Jinwu Lanxin, the phenomenal deep blue sun was slowly changing from a behemoth back to its original size, as if it were a compressed Universe, gradually shrinking back into Jinwu Lanxin's Chaos body.
With the return of the sun, the scene inside the Heavenly Emperor Hall gradually returned to its former state, and everything appeared so calm and peaceful.
However, the Aura on Jinwu Lanxin showed no signs of stabilizing at all; instead, it was fluctuating violently, as if it had been swept by a storm.
Cao Yang, standing on the side, shook his head helplessly and sighed inwardly.
He frowned slightly, looking at Jinwu Lanxin thoughtfully, and then silently contacted the System in his heart: "System, how much time will it actually take for Jinwu Lanxin's Breakthrough to be completed?"
After a moment, the System's crisp and pleasant voice rang in Cao Yang's mind: "Beep, replying to Master, although conducting a Breakthrough inside the Heavenly Emperor Hall can speed up the process, based on the current situation, Jinwu Lanxin will still need to spend about one hundred years to completely finish this Breakthrough."
Hearing the System's reply, Cao Yang couldn't help but widen his eyes in astonishment.
One hundred years? For him, this was simply a long span of time!
Although the passage of time in the Inner Universe was different from the outside Chaos World, this was still a solid one hundred years of time here!
"Damn it, this is way too long!" Cao Yang couldn't help but curse inwardly.
"System, just use the hongmeng sign-in counts to help Jinwu Lanxin stabilize her Realm! This might allow her to complete the Breakthrough faster, I can't wait that long!"
"Beep, alright Master, Xiao Tong will help Jinwu Lanxin speed up her Breakthrough and stabilize her Realm right away~" The System Loli's delicate voice rang out, as if it could melt one's heart.
As her voice fell, a soft "ding" was heard, and the System prompt immediately followed: "Beep, 100 sign-in counts have been spent, Jinwu Lanxin's Breakthrough is successful, and her Realm has been stabilized!"
Just as the System Loli's voice ended, the originally surging and powerful Aura of the Chaos Supreme Realm on Jinwu Lanxin was gently soothed by an invisible hand, gradually becoming stable.
The Breakthrough Aura, which had originally been like a raging storm, also settled down slowly after the acceleration, like a tamed wild horse.
As time ticked by, the Aura around Jinwu Lanxin was slowly gathered by an invisible hand, eventually completely retracting into her body.
Just then, Jinwu Lanxin's tightly closed eyes slowly opened; those originally chaotic and hazy eyes were now clear and bright, like two brilliant gemstones.
"Brother Cao, was it you who helped me just now?" Jinwu Lanxin looked at Cao Yang with a face full of gratitude, her beautiful eyes filled with anticipation and confusion.
Her voice was soft and pleasant, like heavenly music, making one unable to help but be intoxicated by it. Hearing this, Cao Yang's mouth slightly curled up, revealing a faint smile.
Jinwu Lanxin was no stranger to Cao Yang; she had once witnessed with her own eyes the scene of Cao Yang helping Tian Qing break through her Realm.
At that time, with Cao Yang's help, Tian Qing had easily broken through her Bottleneck, and there was no need to spend time stabilizing her Realm at all, which made Jinwu Lanxin deeply admire Cao Yang's strength.
Now, when it was her turn to face the critical moment of her Breakthrough, that sudden mysterious power not only accelerated her Realm Breakthrough but also allowed her to stabilize her Realm in an instant. This magical experience left Jinwu Lanxin immensely shocked.
She knew deeply that this mysterious power was definitely not something an ordinary person could possess, and in this place, apart from Cao Yang, it seemed no one else had such ability. Therefore, when she felt that powerful force, the first person she thought of was Cao Yang.
After the shock, an indescribable joy welled up in Jinwu Lanxin's heart. After all, Cao Yang had now become her Dao Companion, which meant their relationship was even closer, and this also made Jinwu Lanxin trust more in Cao Yang's previous words about being able to help her continuously break through her Realm.
Recalling the powerful force just now, Jinwu Lanxin still felt a lingering fear.
It not only allowed her to successfully break through and stabilize her Realm in an instant, but more importantly, this power also had an astonishing impact on the Chaos Qi within her body.
The Chaos Qi she had originally cultivated, under the effect of this power, became more than twice as powerful as before!
This change made Jinwu Lanxin feel an unprecedented qualitative change.
She felt that her Rank seemed to have been elevated by a level because of this, and she was simply a different person compared to before.
Now, she was full of confidence, and even had the courage to challenge those Elementary Chaos Emperor Realm Old Ancestors in her Family.
"That's right, if I hadn't lent a helping hand, who knows when you would have been able to break through!" Cao Yang's mouth slightly curled up, revealing a faint smile, while he nodded slightly, indicating his approval of what he had just done.
Just then, a crisp prompt sound suddenly rang in Cao Yang's mind: "Beep, congratulations Master, Jinwu Lanxin's favorability toward you has increased by ten points, currently reaching ninety-five, conquest successful!"
Hearing this good news, Cao Yang couldn't help but feel happy. He knew that this meant the relationship between him and Jinwu Lanxin was already very intimate, and all of this was thanks to his help just now.
Immediately after, the System Loli's voice rang in Cao Yang's mind again: "Beep, congratulations Master, because you have successfully conquered Jinwu Lanxin, the System specially rewards you with four thousand hongmeng sign-in counts!"
These four thousand hongmeng sign-in counts were undoubtedly a huge surprise for Cao Yang.
"Hey, that's not right!" Cao Yang suddenly realized something, his heart filled with confusion, "The System task reward was clearly two thousand sign-in counts before, why did it become four thousand now? Is it because Jinwu Lanxin broke through her Realm? But even if she broke through her Realm, it shouldn't have doubled like this, right!"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong; this change was truly somewhat unexpected.
Just then, the System Loli's voice rang in his mind: "Beep, replying to Master, there is one more reason. That is, Jinwu Lanxin's Bloodline has also been upgraded."
Hearing the System Loli's explanation, Cao Yang suddenly realized, "Oh, so that's how it is!" He had almost forgotten about this matter; Jinwu Lanxin had not only successfully broken through a major Realm, but had also upgraded her Jinwu Bloodline to the Grandmist level.
One had to know that the Grandmist level was a very high-level existence; this kind of Bloodline upgrade would undoubtedly bring huge benefits.
And for Cao Yang, one of the benefits was that it would increase his hongmeng sign-in counts.
Thinking of this, the confusion in Cao Yang's heart was finally answered.
"Right, System, Jinwu Lanxin has now agreed to be my Dao Companion, has her Chaos Qi decreased?" Cao Yang asked.
"Beep, replying to Master, not yet. Only after you have performed the act of discussing the Dao will the Chaos Fortune on Jinwu Lanxin decrease." The System Loli replied.
Cao Yang understood in his heart.
"Thank you, Brother Cao." Jinwu Lanxin said with a face full of gratitude.
"Are you just thanking me verbally like this? Why don't you thank me in another way!" Cao Yang smiled wickedly and said.
"Pervert, hmph, keep dreaming." Although Jinwu Lanxin was stubborn, her face had already turned beet red.
Seeing this, Cao Yang directly did a princess carry and carried Jinwu Lanxin back into the room again.
"Ah, pervert, let me go!" Jinwu Lanxin called out coquettishly, but her body did not resist.
Soon, beautiful singing came from the top floor of the Wuji Hall.
