The Mysterious Little Qilin, the Frustrated Mu He

Chapter 51 The Mysterious Little Qilin, the Frustrated Mu He

As Ling Tianyu has a soul connection with the little Qilin, its advancement status has always been under his monitoring...

Visible to the naked eye, the little Qilin shone brightly, devouring the mysterious spirit in the Earthly Sacred Spring like a whale swallowing a snake, or, to put it another way, the totem power of the Azure Dragon's resurgence.

Compared to the essence of servants or even the essence of warriors, this sacred spring seems to be the most exquisite tonic for the little Qilin.

As the spiritual energy of the small pool faded, the little Qilin was naturally not satisfied and reached out its demonic claws toward the original sacred spring of the earth.

Through the crack, more and more source energy flowed into the small Qilin pendant.

Before long, seemingly having absorbed enough energy for advancement, the little Qilin burst forth with multicolored light, and the faint sound of an eggshell cracking could be heard.

"A top-tier Spirit-grade Nebula Magic Artifact, complete!"

Ling Tianyu was secretly pleased, but a trace of worry couldn't help but flash through his mind.

"The little Qilin can no longer absorb energy from the Earthly Sacred Spring, otherwise Mo Fan's cultivation progress later on will be in serious trouble!"

The Earthly Sacred Spring played an irreplaceable role in Mo Fan's later breakthrough to the intermediate level. As Mo Fan's "good older brother," he still needs to consider Mo Fan's needs appropriately.

Having made up his mind, Ling Tianyu tentatively said to the little Qilin, "Little guy, let's make a deal. Can we stop absorbing the energy from this Earthly Sacred Spring?"

"Buzz buzz buzz!" The little Qilin was slightly dissatisfied, but still obediently returned to Ling Tianyu's neck.

The difference between the Galaxy Magic Artifact and the Nebula Magic Artifact is too great! The energy of the Holy Spring of Light is not enough for it to break through another major level.

"Hmm, I have to run!" Ling Tianyu recalled the little Qilin and left in a hurry, not even having time to observe the changes in the little Qilin.

He figured the soldiers guarding the Holy Spring would quickly check the situation after noticing the loss of its energy, and he didn't want to get caught.

Stealing Bocheng's lifeline is something that can't be kept quiet about!

…………

The sacred spring is a heavily fortified location, with a large number of military soldiers stationed there, including several mid-level mages. Its defensive strength is second only to the Snow Peak Mountain Post Station, a stronghold that defends against demons outside the city.

The base of the China World Trade Center is a completely enclosed chamber constructed from black boulders, and adorned with many strange magical patterns and incantations, serving a protective function.

Despite its unassuming appearance, this secret chamber is so well-defended that it can even withstand attacks from demons and warriors, making it a truly formidable defensive structure.

The patrolling soldiers were not authorized to enter the Holy Spring. In fact, outside of open hours, only Deputy Chief of Guard Lin Yuxin and Chief Guard Liang Bin were allowed to enter for inspection.

As usual, Deputy Chief of Security Lin Yuxin noticed something unusual as soon as she stepped into the Sacred Spring area.

"No, why is so much energy from the Earthly Sacred Spring being lost?" Lin Yuxin frowned, thinking she had misperceived something, and hurriedly released her intermediate-level mental power.

"Oh no! There's something wrong with the Earthly Holy Spring!"

…………

Upon inspection, Lin Yuxin discovered an extremely tiny crack next to the stone wall of the Holy Spring, through which warm water continuously flowed.

Lin Yuxin was puzzled, as every year at the beginning of the year, a special person would inspect the Dishengquan area, but no abnormalities were found.

There haven't been any earthquakes recently, so when did this crack appear?

A sense of unease arose in Lin Yuxin's heart, and she immediately contacted Commander Liang to explain her discovery, not daring to leave out a single detail.

"What! Immediately search the area surrounding the Sacred Spring for any signs of other people's activity!" Commander Liang was shocked. The Sacred Spring had run into trouble under his command; the consequences...

Since the damage has already happened, we can only try our best to mitigate the losses and absolutely cannot allow the warmth of the sacred spring to continue to flow away!

After some searching, the military focused its attention on the Black Vatican...

…………

Recently, Mu He has been in a bad mood, and everything has gone wrong. Ever since his nephew Mu Bai somehow broke the school's Stardust Magic Artifact and had to pay a lot of money, everything has gone wrong.

First, Bai Yang's identity as a spy within the military was exposed, leading to the arrest of a large number of key members. Even their undercover agents planted in the military laboratory were discovered, and a large number of unfinished products of [Foggy Spring] were seized, resulting in significant losses.

Fortunately, the key experimental data was not leaked, and the plan was able to continue.

However, after this incident, military patrols became even stricter, and the location for crafting [Foggy Spring] had to be moved to a nearby city.

Lord Salan even gave himself a severe scolding for this.

Now, some idiot has leaked the information again, and those guys in the military seem to have discovered their grand plan. Many members have been arrested, and the plan's progress has had to be delayed once again!

They were the ones who tampered with the Earthly Sacred Spring, but according to our estimates, it shouldn't have caused the spring's warmth to dissipate!

Mu He always felt that there was an unseen hand manipulating things, preventing them from acting.

Oh, and there's that clueless Judge Tang Yue; we need to keep a close eye on her so she doesn't disrupt our plans.

If she notices something, it will have a significant impact on us.

Haha, she probably thinks she's being very discreet! Little does she know, all she's seen is what we want her to see. The real core information hasn't been revealed at all!

She's just a little girl after all; how could she possibly fight against our great Lord Salang!

…………

The military operation was none of Mu He's thoughts or Ling Tianyu's current situation. After returning home, he sat cross-legged on the bed, examining the changes in the little Qilin after absorbing the warmth of the Earthly Holy Spring.

"Little Qilin, what exactly are you? A totem vessel? I'm getting more and more curious!" Ling Tianyu muttered to himself.

The warm and gentle energy contained in the Earthly Sacred Spring can be absorbed by the little Qilin pendant. Does that mean that the energy of all totem systems can become a stepping stone for the little pendant to advance?

If that's the case, he might also embark on a journey to find a totem in the future.

Shaking his head, Ling Tianyu suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind.

These things are too far off; for now, let's focus on improving our cultivation level.

The little Qilin now seems to possess a trace of the Earthly Sacred Spring's spirituality, and its auxiliary effects are several times stronger than those of a Spirit-grade Nebula Magic Artifact of the same level.

It's like he carries a miniature version of the Holy Spring with him.

The mental and spatial stardust that had been warmed by the sea of ​​spirits began to stir, eager to escape their small apartments and move into large villas!

Holding his breath and concentrating, Ling Tianyu immersed his spirit in the starry universe, preparing to break through in one fell swoop with the help of the Earthly Holy Spring's warmth.
