Chapter 143
After discussing it, Lin Ziyu and Long Yan decided to follow the advice of the weapon spirits Lin Xin and Maorong Tuanzi and plant the Sword Enlightenment Divine Tree within the space. Since the Sword Enlightenment Divine Tree required a large amount of spiritual energy to grow, they decided to leave the Nameless City and find a valley rich in spiritual energy within the Monster Forest. There, they would plant the Sword Enlightenment Divine Tree within the space.
After searching the Monster Forest for five months, they finally found a valley rich in spiritual energy. Surrounded by mountains, it held a Five Elements Spiritual Spring, surrounded by a vast expanse of Five Elements Spiritual Herbs over ten thousand years old. If it weren't for the weapon spirit Lin Xin's keen sense of spiritual energy, they wouldn't have been able to find this place.
Long Yan and Lin Ziyu worked together in the valley to set up various formations, including illusion formations, defensive formations, and killing formations. They didn't know what would happen if they planted the Sword Enlightenment Divine Tree.
After everything was ready, Lin Ziyu's consciousness entered the space and planted the Sword Enlightenment Divine Tree within. A moment after planting, the entire space seemed to vibrate slightly, as if welcoming this new member. At this moment, Lin Ziyu's consciousness was transported out by a force. Lin Ziyu only had time to smile at Long Yan before he fainted.
Lin Ziyu felt his body was empty and needed a lot of spiritual energy. His body began to absorb the external spiritual energy on its own, and slowly the spiritual energy gathered around him.
Because he had guessed that this situation might happen, Long Yan did not panic. He picked up Lin Ziyu and gently placed him on the bed.
Time slipped by quietly, a year passing by like a fleeting moment. During this long year, Lin Ziyu's body seemed to have become a magical vessel, silently absorbing the pervasive spiritual energy around him. This spiritual energy flowed slowly into his body like a trickle, nourishing every inch of his skin, every cell. All of this was due to the Sword Enlightenment Divine Tree taking root and growing within the space. Like a greedy child, it demanded a vast amount of spiritual energy to satisfy its ever-growing needs.
Finally, one day four years later, after Long Yan finished practicing swordsmanship outside, he came to check on Lin Ziyu as usual. When his eyes met Lin Ziyu, who was sitting quietly on the bed, his eyes empty and he was wondering what he was thinking, an indescribable emotion suddenly surged in his heart.
She rushed to Lin Ziyu's side anxiously, then squatted down gently and hugged him tightly. Her gentle tone seemed to be able to melt all the coldness in the world: "Ziyu, are you awake?" As she spoke, her full joy flowed out like a spring, as if she wanted to express all the waiting and concern for a long time.
Lin Ziyu was taken aback for a moment, then a brilliant smile spread across his face. That smile, like the most beautiful flower in spring, instantly dispelled the gloom surrounding them. He nodded slowly, letting out a soft "hmm" from the depths of his throat. Though the sound was soft, it resonated like thunder in Long Yan's heart, filling him with an unprecedented warmth and comfort.
After a while, Lin Ziyu asked softly in Long Yan's arms: "Brother Yan, how much time has passed? I seem to have slept for a long time, but it also seems like I just slept for a while, and nothing has changed."
A moment later, Long Yan's deep and magnetic voice rang in his ears, "Four years, one month, three days, and two hours."
Lin Ziyu was stunned at first; so much time had passed. Then, his heart skipped a beat, and his eyes lit up with an unconcealable joy. He stared silently at Long Yan's familiar, resolute face, a warm feeling welling up in his heart. It turned out that this man had been calculating how long he had been asleep!
"Zi Yu, Xin Xin is missing." Long Yan said softly, with a hint of sadness in his tone.
Lin Ziyu leaned in Long Yan's arms and replied softly, "Yes, I know. Xinxin went back to the space to fight for the sovereignty of the space. After the Sword Enlightenment Tree grew, the whole world seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes. The Medicine God Space suddenly began to merge with my space. It felt like two unrelated spaces were entangled together by a magical force, and the boundaries between them became blurred. The Medicine God inheritance in the Medicine God Space was like a surging torrent, suddenly pouring into my consciousness, catching me off guard for a moment. I could only passively accept it. Fortunately, the inheritance was opened bit by bit, and it took more than two years just to receive the inheritance." He slowly finished talking about his experiences in the past few years, and then asked, "Brother Yan, how have you been these years?"
Long Yan smiled and replied softly, "Well... I spend most of my time here, accompanying you while cultivating my spatial psychic abilities. Occasionally, I'll go out and fight the high-level monsters nearby to hone my combat abilities so I can better protect you."
Just as Lin Ziyu and Long Yan were whispering, the door to the room suddenly opened. Lin Ziyu turned around and saw the plush ball swaggering into the room with two people. It looked up and met Lin Ziyu's eyes. It immediately showed a surprised expression, then jumped up excitedly, landed next to Lin Ziyu, and said, "Wow, Lin kid, you're awake! You might have been sleeping!"
Lin Ziyu narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded gently, and then said: "Fluffy Dumpling, you look so majestic now. Who are the two behind you?" The fluffy dumpling is now three meters long and two meters tall, looking like an adult giant beast.
The plush ball glanced back and proudly introduced, "Hey, they're famous creatures in the Monster Forest. This one's called the Demon Dragon. Its true form is a black dragon. It's a top-ranked level 10 monster in the Monster Forest, and it's incredibly powerful! It couldn't defeat the dragon kid and failed in several challenges, but in the end, it insisted on following us. This one, its true form is a 100,000-year-old purple bamboo that's been growing in our valley. The weapon spirit named it the Demon Bamboo."
"Hello, I'm Lin Ziyu." Lin Ziyu greeted the magic dragon and magic bamboo with a smile.
The Demon Dragon and Demon Bamboo nodded in response to Lin Ziyu. They knew this person was important to Long Yan (their master), and was the mate of Boss Long (their master's master). (To clarify, the Demon Bamboo was subdued by the weapon spirit Lin Xin, and its master was the weapon spirit.)
Lin Ziyu thought of what the weapon spirit Lin Xin had said: that as long as he defeated the number one monster in the Warcraft Forest, he could leave the World of Warcraft. So he asked, "Molong, do you know how to leave the World of Warcraft?"
The demon dragon took a step forward, its massive and powerful body carrying an invisible pressure. It raised its head slightly, its expression as proud as an emperor overlooking all living things. The corners of its mouth curled up slightly as it spoke slowly, "I know of a mysterious teleportation array deep in the Warcraft Forest. Using it, we can leave this place."
Then, it looked at Long Yan, its eyes gleaming with anticipation and temptation, and asked, "Boss Long, are you really leaving? Can you take me with you?"
Long Yan looked at the dragon quietly. His deep gaze was like two sharp swords, locking onto the dragon tightly. After a moment, he slowly said, "I can take you away, but you have to promise me one thing."
Upon hearing this, the dragon straightened its sturdy body, its eyes revealing a hint of determination. It shouted, "What is it? I will do it! As long as it allows me to leave this damned forest, I will not hesitate to go through fire and water."
Long Yan's tone remained firm as he spoke word by word, "I recognize Ziyu as my master."
After these words came out, the demon dragon was obviously stunned for a moment, and a trace of hesitation and struggle flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his arrogant expression and said, "Unless he can defeat me and prove that his strength is far superior to mine, otherwise I will never easily recognize him as my master."
Lin Ziyu and Long Yan looked at each other, and there seemed to be some kind of tacit understanding in their hearts. Lin Ziyu nodded slightly, then turned to look at the dragon, and said in a light tone: "Okay, in this case, let's fight. If I lose, we will take you away unconditionally; if I win, you recognize me as your master and leave World of Warcraft with us." After that, he looked at the dragon indifferently.
The dragon's eyes blazed with fighting spirit, ready to face the upcoming challenge. "Alright, let's go out and fight." He thought to himself, the partner recognized by the boss must be strong.
