Ever since she recently advanced to Two-Star Elite, Zhu Xin Yi was no longer afraid of the winter chill. However, her body was trembling now and she unknowingly wrapped her arms around herself. Judging from the look in her eyes, she was starting to lose herself a little.
This undead aura was so powerful?
Wei Xiao Bei didn’t dare to delay. He was worried that the undead aura might damage Zhu Xin Yi’s mind. He quickly took out a drop of Flame Giant’s heart blood from his storage bracelet and had Xin Yi swallow it, along with ten drops of Lesser Spring Water of Youth.
The gray on Xin Yi’s face mostly cleared up after she swallowed the Flame Giant’s heart blood, but it was replaced by an expression of pain instead.
After all, the heart blood of a Flame Giant was no gentle medicine. Even though it wouldn’t turn into flames upon contact with air like the Bi Fang’s blood, its ignition point was still very low. Any temperature above thirty degrees would cause its blood to start burning.
This meant that one drop of heart blood had turned into the fire once Xin Yi swallowed it. It was constantly doing damage to her body from the inside.
A drop of heart blood like this was nothing for Wei Xiao Bei.
However, for Zhu Xin Yi, who did not have very high Vitality, this one drop of heart blood was enough to wound her badly.
Otherwise, Wei Xiao Bei wouldn’t have fed her another ten drops of Lesser Spring Water.
The regenerative effects of the Lesser Spring Water of Youth were tremendous. As the fire from the heart blood was extinguished, Xin Yi’s expression quickly recovered to normal.
Even so, that one drop of heart blood had not managed to dispel all the undead aura in Xin Yi’s body.
Wei Xiao Bei had no choice but to have her consume another drop of heart blood and ten drops of Lesser Spring Water.
Fortunately, the effects were much better this time. Wei Xiao Bei checked her pulse when she had recovered and all the undead aura had been dispelled.
Wei Xiao Bei asked her a few questions.
Zhu Xin Yi had indeed become fully conscious again. There was joy on her face.
Even though she couldn’t fully sense the strength of her soul given her current power, she could still feel her awareness and control over her subordinate monsters growing stronger.
This was undoubtedly the manifestation of the enhancement of Zhu Xin Yi’s soul.
Wei Xiao Bei didn’t swallow a Soul Pearl himself. After all, it would be awkward if Xin Yi thought he was using her as a guinea pig.
At any rate, the reaction from swallowing the Soul Pearl wouldn’t be that great for him. He could just find another time to consume the pearl if necessary.
Thus, with Wei Xiao Bei at the front and Xin Yi following behind, the two of them entered the laboratory building.
A white set of bones could be seen just five meters away from the entrance.
Judging from how its skull was smashed and scattered all over the place, this should be the girl that Zhang Tian Kun mentioned. However, it was strange how her corpse had turned into a skeleton after just a few days. The essence in her body had probably been completely extracted by the Brush Spirit.
It was truly a beauty reduced to bones now.
Wei Xiao Bei sighed. He didn’t move the skeleton either. He simply moved around it and walked inside.
Xin Yi seemed to have sensed the skeleton was there, but it was being obscured by a mysterious force. Even Wei Xiao Bei would not have been able to see the skeleton if not for his [Response Search].
A sinister aura washed over them as they entered the building, carrying with it a cloud of dust. It made them want to cough.
The building might have several windows, but it was still dim and dark.
The ground floor of the laboratory building had several dusty tables and chairs. A few skeletons were laying on the ground, making for a horrifying sight.
Wei Xiao Bei chose a table. He kicked against the ground and the dust on the tables and chairs were all knocked into the air. He then blew them away with a single breath.
The chairs and the tables became incredibly clean, probably shinier than if someone had taken a cloth and wiped them down carefully.
Wei Xiao Bei took out the white piece of paper he had prepared after the two of them sat down. He placed it on the table and wrote down all the words the way he was supposed to.
The two then grabbed the ballpoint pen between them, their hands crossing each other and facing different directions.
Wei Xiao Bei and Xin Yi looked at each other and couldn’t help but laugh. The Brush Spirit Invitation Ceremony felt like a child’s game to Wei Xiao Bei. Meanwhile, this was the first time Xin Yi’s hands were so close to her master’s. The intimacy made her heartbeat wildly and the trace of blush appeared on her neck and ears. Even her cheeks flushed slightly red.
“Cough, cough. Focus. Protect yourself first if anything happens.”
Wei Xiao Bei had also noticed that the position of their hands was a bit too intimate. Under ordinary circumstances, this was how lovers would hold hands when they were crossing the road.
Of course, even Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but feel something with his hands touching Xin Yi’s own soft hands.
He sighed softly in his mind and told himself to focus on the proper matter. He shouted softly, reminding Xin Yi to protect herself while calming down the urges in his mind.
“In my past, past life, I was you in this life. If you wish to continue your fate with me, please draw a circle on the paper! In my past, past life, I was you in this life. If you wish to continue your fate with me, please draw a circle on the paper.”
Wei Xiao Bei chanted these seemingly ridiculous words and started inviting the Brush Spirits like those students.
However, Xin Yi couldn’t hold back the urge to laugh and broke out into a fit of laughter.
She couldn’t help it. Wei Xiao Bei had always had the image of a stern master before her. Yet, he was now chanting these almost child-like words with such a stern face. Zhu Xin Yi just found it too funny.
“Be serious. Alright, fine, laugh if you want to.”
Wei Xiao Bei tried to keep up the seriousness at first, but even he started laughing after a while.
Either way, in this building, the Brush Spirit would always descend once the ceremony had begun. This was very clearly stated in the status panel.
As such, Wei Xiao Bei wasn’t worried that the two of them laughing will affect the plan.
Just then, the pen between their hands twitched uncontrollably.
Wei Xiao Bei’s expression turned blank and he activated [Response Search], enveloping the surroundings in his powerful skill.
He found no existences within the radius of [Response Search], but he could tell that the Brush Spirit had indeed arrived.
It was just a trace of its aura, perhaps. After all, Wei Xiao Bei believed that Xin Yi couldn’t move the pen in their hands even if she was trying to pull a prank. The difference in their strength was too large.
Wei Xiao Bei’s 44.6 points of Strength and his martial attainment made him effectively have over 55 points of Strength, even without using the inner qi within his veins.
Meanwhile, Xin Yi’s main Strength attribute was only at 11 points. Even with the bonus from her martial attainment level, she would not have more than 12 points of Strength!
Which is to say, Zhu Xin Yi effectively had the strength of a lightweight boxer at her current level.
A difference of 40 points of strength could be described as the difference between an elephant and an ant.
“Have you come?”
Wei Xiao Bei pulled back the smile on his face and asked with a seemingly terrified voice.
The pen trembled beyond Wei Xiao Bei’s control and pointed at ‘Yes’.
“Can I ask you a question?”
Wei Xiao Bei asked one question after another, according to the steps he was told.
“I want to become undefeated in the world. Can you help me?”
A wild passion appeared on Wei Xiao Bei’s face when he asked the question. Honestly, even Xin Yi might have thought that her master had fallen into the trap of the Brush Spirit if she didn’t have complete confidence in him.
“Kill her! You will obtain our power!”
An extremely weak voice rang in Wei Xiao Bei’s mind. At the same time, Xin Yi’s expression changed. There was no doubt that she had received the same message in her mind.
However, strangely enough, the situation that Zhang Tian Kun described did not happen. Black ink brushes did not appear to stab them in their heads.
Of course, it was fine if this didn’t happen. Wei Xiao Bei simply stood up and pretended to run.
Of course, this was not an effective course of action.
Moments after he got up, he sensed the ballpoint pen in his hand changing. A sinister aura spread throughout the room.
The ballpoint pen transformed into a black ink brush.
This wasn’t an illusion. It was something that was happening. Of that, Wei Xiao Bei was certain.
The black brush then split into two different brushes, diving at Wei Xiao Bei and Xin Yi’s palm.
It finally appeared!
Wei Xiao Bei did not hesitate and immediately opened both his eyes!
[Enlightenment] activate!
In the blink of an eye, the status panel of the two black brushes appeared before his eyes!
Name: Brush Spirit’s Clone (??)
…..
As the flux of [Enlightenment] engulfed the black brushes, the momentum of the brushes stalled for a single moment.
This one moment of pausing caused the two Brush Spirit clones to lose their last chance!
Life Altar activate!
Wei Xiao Bei called on the Life Altar and a rift opened in his palm. Two clusters of thin, mist-like threads immediately wrapped around the two brushes.
The two black brushes immediately realized the danger they were in and started to struggle madly, attempting to break free of this web-like thread.
“Step back! ”
Wei Xiao Bei pushed lightly and a massive force shoved Xin Yi ten meters away from her chair.
The black brush that had been stuck to her palm was torn away, along with a piece of her flesh and skin.
Blood started to flow from the wound in a horrific display. Any ordinary girl would be shivering in fright by now.
However, Zhu Xin Yi was extremely calm. She did not panic at all. She patted the storage bag hanging from her neck and a bottle appeared in her hand.
She opened the lid and poured its contents into her mouth, only swallowing a portion of it, while leaving the rest in her mouth for later consumption.
