Cultivation Chamber.
Ye Feng sat cross-legged and initiated a 20-draw lottery directly to prepare for the upcoming adventure.
[Authority of Light (Gold): You are the embodiment of light. All Light Attribute Soul Skills gain 1000% effectiveness boost. Rules of Light +1000]
[Space Hunter (Red): You possess an extremely strong sensitivity toward various minor worlds and special spaces. Rules of Space +300]
[Life Extraction (Red): For every unit killed, you gain 1% of their remaining lifespan.]
[...]
...
"Twenty draws, not bad..."
Ye Feng glanced at the lottery results without much surprise.
After all, these were just two minor pity pulls.
The allure of golden Lexical Traits was far weaker for Ye Feng now compared to before.
His Bloodline was simply too powerful. The golden Lexical Traits he drew now could only add more techniques to his arsenal rather than elevate his peak combat strength.
Two pity pulls—one for himself and one for Qian Renxue.
That's right, before setting off, Ye Feng still needed to visit Qian Renxue.
After all, Ye Feng wasn't one to play favorites or discard the old for the new.
It had been several months since they last met, so he definitely had to make time for her.
Qian Renxue had even fallen out with Qian Daoliu for his sake.
If Ye Feng didn't show her more care, he'd truly be a scumbag.
Moreover, this trip to search for Dragon Valley might take an unknown amount of time. If Qian Renxue got impatient and exposed her identity to go looking for him at the Star Sect, things would spiral out of control.
He wondered how Qian Renxue's cultivation was progressing. Drawing a Lexical Trait as a gift for her would hopefully help her grow faster.
Ye Feng took another look at his pity-pull Lexical Trait—[Space Hunter].
Though it was only a red-tier Lexical Trait, it was space-attribute and had an excellent effect.
Its sensitivity toward special spaces was incredibly strong, significantly increasing Ye Feng's chances of finding Dragon Valley.
Once he found Dragon Valley, Ye Feng was confident that the opportunities within would propel him to new heights!
To true invincibility!
...
...
Heaven Dou City, Imperial Palace.
This time, Ye Feng didn't use Blink to enter. Instead, he openly used the token Qian Renxue had given him to pass through layers of security and enter the Crown Prince's palace.
A maidservant led Ye Feng to a grand hall at the rear before bowing and retreating. Clearly, this area was off-limits to all palace maids.
Ye Feng stepped slowly into the hall, his gaze shifting to the left.
In the next moment, a white-robed figure rushed toward him—Xue Qinghe!
But as the figure lunged forward, the disguise on their face quickly dissolved, the dark hair turning golden, the features transforming instantly into Qian Renxue's appearance.
"Ye Feng, you jerk!"
Qian Renxue delivered a headbutt straight to Ye Feng's chest, sending him stumbling back half a step.
Fortunately, Ye Feng softened the impact for her; otherwise, she'd have at least suffered a concussion.
"What was that for..."
Ye Feng smoothed out Qian Renxue's silky golden hair, sighing helplessly.
"You still ask... Where have you been all this time? Did you forget about me?!" Qian Renxue glared at him with her light golden eyes, pouting angrily.
This guy hadn't visited her in so long—not even a single letter!
This was simply heartless! Too much!
"Ahem, I had some matters to attend to recently and went elsewhere to train. As Soul Masters, it's normal to go into seclusion for a few months," Ye Feng quickly explained under Qian Renxue's scrutinizing gaze.
Of course, Ye Feng would never admit that he'd been "milked dry" by the Silver Dragon King recently—that would be far too embarrassing.
This trip to Dragon Valley was partly to gain some benefits and enhance his physique, so he wouldn't be bullied by the Silver Dragon King again...
"Really?"
Qian Renxue looked Ye Feng up and down, her eyes filled with suspicion. She had a feeling he was hiding something, but she had no proof.
Moreover, she respected Ye Feng deeply and had no intention of prying into his secrets, so she couldn't bring herself to press further.
"Really. And I even brought you a gift~" Ye Feng pulled Qian Renxue into his arms, kissed her cheek, and then produced a pill.
Girls were easiest to appease with presents, and Ye Feng had come prepared.
"Hmph~ Fine, I'll forgive you because of the gift~"
Qian Renxue hummed softly, clearly delighted.
Truthfully, she hadn't been angry with Ye Feng to begin with. Given his formidable cultivation, she knew he must have been working much harder than her—it was only natural he'd be busy.
She had simply missed him too much, hence her earlier words.
And the fact that Ye Feng hadn't forgotten her, even bringing a gift, proved he had been thinking of her too, which naturally pleased her greatly.
"Alright, take it quickly. This pill is even more potent than the last one you consumed—it'll grant you a powerful 'Light-based Talent,' perfectly suited to your attributes."
Ye Feng gave a brief explanation before urging her on.
"Mhm~"
Qian Renxue nodded and swallowed the pill in one gulp.
The taste was similar to the last one—nothing special.
But the moment the pill entered her stomach, she instantly felt something new awaken within her.
The next second—
"Buzz—"
Qian Renxue felt her Martial Soul surge with unprecedented excitement, involuntarily manifesting an Angelic Phantom behind her.
A torrent of radiant energy dyed her body a brilliant gold, and immense light erupted outward, illuminating the already bright hall until it shimmered dazzlingly.
At this moment, Qian Renxue resembled a human sun—
Unleashing blinding radiance in all directions, accompanied by scorching heatwaves that caused the surrounding furniture to emit faint wisps of white smoke.
"Calm your mind and focus—control this power."
Ye Feng quickly instructed while using his Mental Strength to shield the area's aura.
Fortunately, they were inside the hall. If this had happened outside, Qian Renxue's sudden transformation into a miniature sun would have alarmed the entire palace.
At that point, Ye Feng might have had to flee with her on the spot...
Golden Talents were simply too overwhelming. It was only natural that Qian Renxue couldn't immediately restrain the overflowing light energy after acquiring a new Lexical Trait.
"Phew..."
After a long while, Qian Renxue finally exhaled deeply.
She swiftly reined in her golden radiance, and the Six-Winged Angelic Phantom behind her vanished.
Her delicate face was alight with joy.
"Is this the most supreme Light-based Talent? I feel my combat power has increased at least tenfold!" Qian Renxue clenched her fists, her eyes flashing with an inexplicable brilliance!
Her attributes were already light-based to begin with, and now she had comprehended numerous laws of light. If she could properly digest these gains, her combat power should increase even further.
Most notably, the enhancement this Talent provided to all her light-based Soul Skills—even without testing them, she knew they must be extraordinarily powerful!
