“What’s this?”
Upon seeing the strange mark on both their palms, Ye Xuan froze momentarily.
Likewise, Lin Shiru’s face revealed a look of surprise as she curiously examined her palm.
The moment she did that, a message flowed into their hearts.
And it instantly allowed them to understand the meaning of the mark.
“Love mark…”
Now knowing the meaning and purpose of this mark, Ye Xuan gave a strange look and unconsciously glanced at Lin Shiru.
Immediately, Lin Shiru’s face reddened.
In fact, this mark originated from a special type of beast—the Love Beast.
Each time Ye Xuan had helped Lin Shiru in the Trial Ground, it had contributed to creating this mark.
And this process ultimately culminated into the mark which was imprinted on both their palms.
After obtaining this mark, it would allow both parties to communicate with each other, regardless of the distance between them.
Even so…
A special rule applied to them. If one side’s cultivation level rises quickly, the other person could also level up just as rapidly.
This mark’s strength would also increase in proportion to their cultivation levels.
This allowed them to communicate across even greater distances.
However, should one of them not want the mark, it could be removed and destroyed.
“Remove this mark?”
Ye Xuan’s eyes flashed.
He decided that one day he would get a beast that could predict the future.
And he would use its prediction powers.
Naturally, he would not want to remove the mark if it did not pose a problem.
“Also…”
Ye Xuan suddenly gave a strange look as he continued thinking.
This time, both he and Lin Shiru had emerged as champions of the trial and obtained the Lovemark.
What if others have gotten it?
For example, had they been two females…
It was plausible, but that still sounded quite alright.
However, if it were to be between two men, it would feel a little weirder.
As Ye Xuan was deep in thought, Lin Shiru raised her hand to look at the mystical mark that was gradually fading away. She then lifted her head to glance at Ye Xuan and clenched her fist tightly.
It was as though this mark was her most treasured possession.
“Buzz!”
Just as she was deep in thought, she heard a strange ring, and a sentient aura suddenly appeared in the void right in front of her.
Then it moved slightly toward her left wrist, before automatically strapping itself onto her fair skin.
Almost instantly, she fell into a dazed and trance-like state, as though she were receiving an enormous volume of messages.
“The inheritance?”
Upon witnessing this scene, Ye Xuan guessed that Lin Shiru was receiving some form of inheritance.
Instead of leaving to pick his treasures, Ye Xuan patiently stood by her side to keep vigil and prevent anything from happening to her.
Time passed by.
Gradually, one by one, distinct silhouettes could be observed to be leaving the Divine Nature Palace.
Even Yao Hongyi and Wan Jinghui were making their way out.
As Yao Hongyi was about to leave, she glanced at Lin Shiru and guessed that Lin Shiru had profited greatly this time around.
Of course, she was on good terms with Lin Shiru.
And she was genuinely happy for her and did not feel the slightest bit of envy.
Just as both Hongyi and Jinghui were leaving, a lady appeared and waved at them. She looked like an illusion.
Her face portrayed a look of displeasure, as if unhappy that Yao Hongyi and Wan Jinghui had overstayed. She hastily waved them away.
“Ye Xuan.”
Almost 10 minutes had passed when Lin Shiru finally reopened her eyes, and she looked at Ye Xuan with joy.
“Has it ended?”
Ye Xuan asked her gently.
“Yeah.”
Lin Shiru nodded and said, “I’ve benefitted massively this time around and inherited all the treasures of the Divine Nature Palace.”
“And I don’t have to finish using all the contribution points that you obtained for me now.”
“I can use them whenever I need them in exchange for evolutionary resources. It works anywhere, as long as I’m in the Milky Way.”
“Is that so?”
Ye Xuan looked surprised and overjoyed.
Earlier, he was afraid that Lin Shiru could not finish the contribution points that he had helped her to earn.
Yet who knew that such a twist of events would happen?
This time, you could say that he almost hit the jackpot as he had helped Lin Shiru to earn almost 10,000 Contribution Points.
Looking at Lin Shiru, he said, “In that case, let me pick the items that I need before we head back to Cerulean Planet.”
“Sure.”
Lin Shiru nodded agreeably.
After finishing his sentence, he opened up the light screen in front of him and began searching intensely.
“Monarch Level evolutionary resource Core of Dreams, the mystical Big Dream Three Year Herb, the mystical Sky Potion, Legend Level Ancient Cosmic Rock…”
He spent the next hour or so carefully choosing the evolutionary resources that he required.
The Big Dream Three Year Herb he had picked for Big Dream Golden Rock would allow it to access Diamond Level treasures more quickly.
Currently, Big Dream Golden Rock was still 4 Platinum Stars.
Once he became Diamond Level, he could use the Monarch Level Core of Dreams directly and further edit it.
He specially chose the Sky Potion for Chaotic Thunder Metamorphosis Wings.
Chaotic Thunder Metamorphosis Wings had a special Thunder Immortal Star ability that would help it preserve its 5-star ranking once it reached Diamond Level.
However, the situation was slightly difficult regarding Tyrannosaurus.
Currently, it had dropped to 3 Platinum star grade and was only considered Intermediate Platinum.
And there was no compatible beast that Ye Xuan could jointly co-edit with the Tyrannosaurus.
Hence it was almost his weakest Beast.
This time, he chose the Ancient Cosmic Rock for it so that it could edit the evolutionary resource.
However, even with the help of the Ancient Cosmic Rock, Tyrannosaurus could at most rise to 5-star platinum grade.
He was uncertain about how long it would take for Tyrannosaurus to catch up with his main Beast.
He contemplated.
He had a gut feeling that he could advance to Extraordinary Level soon.
Thinking about this, Ye Xuan was regretful.
He was regretful that he could only choose one Monarch Level Evolutionary Resource.
How he wished he could take a few more.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Following his decision, beams of light appeared and converged, and the evolutionary resources he had chosen quickly materialized in front of him.
Scanning through them, he quickly collected them with a wave of his hand.
“Let’s make our way.”
Ye Xuan looked at Lin Shiru and replied after keeping his treasures.
Earlier, they had obtained the notice.
And they knew they would be transported back to Divine Nature Palace once they left this place.
“Yeah.”
Lin Shiru nodded.
“We will be randomly teleported to any location when we return, right?”
Ye Xuan chuckled and reached for her tiny hand.
Lin Shiru looked at him, remaining silent.
The next moment, they disappeared and were teleported out of the Divine Nature Palace.
They appeared at the exact spot from where they had entered the Divine Nature Palace.
“Looks like we’re out.”
After leaving the Divine Nature Palace, Ye Xuan scanned his lush surroundings, and a feeling of peace washed over him.
Lin Shiru, however, turned to look back.
This time around, her trip to the Divine Nature Palace was extremely unforgettable.
Beams of golden light appeared and converged in her mind, one after another.
Memories and scenes of how Ye Xuan helped her to win Contribution Points and open the message in the treasure chest flashed through her mind.
She unconsciously tilted her head to gaze at Ye Xuan from the side.
“Let’s go. I’m not sure whether what Mr. Wang mentioned about their operation has already begun. We should make good use of our time and get going.”
Ye Xuan uttered when he noticed Lin Shiru looking at him.
“Alright.”
Lin Shiru nodded.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Immediately, Ye Xuan summoned the Tree of the World.
Holding on tightly to Lin Shiru, they were hastily on their way.
When making their way to the Divine Nature Palace, they had used a space tunnel to bring them to the forest.
However, they had to make their way to Cerulean Planet station for their journey back.
“We’ve reached.”
With great speed, both Ye Xuan and Lin Shiru arrived at the station in record time.
Both of them glanced ahead and noticed that the station was crowded with people.
Of which, two of the people waiting were Yao Hongyi and Wan Yinghui.
This time, Ye Xuan had directly shuttled Lin Shiru to this station. Earlier, it did not cross her mind that he would bring them to this place.
Upon seeing the crowd, her face reddened, and she hurriedly pulled her hand away from Ye Xuan.
“Hehe, hehe.”
Ye Xuan chuckled lightly.
Keeping the Tree of the World, Ye Xuan and Lin Shiru hurriedly proceeded to the station.
“Tsk, tsk. Xiao Ruru, I didn’t realize you could be so compliant. I didn’t expect you two to be holding hands so soon.”
Yao Hongyi teased Lin Shiru and smiled just as Lin Shiru and Ye Xuan approached them from behind.
Lin Shiru glared at her.
But she remained silent.
Ye Xuan stood in a corner, silently observing the station.
He noticed that the station had a total of three space tunnels.
One of the space tunnels was headed towards Jiangzhou.
“Is this Ye Xuan?”
“Did he achieve a breakthrough and reach Diamond Level? Wasn’t he only at Platinum Level earlier?”
As Ye Xuan and Lin Shiru arrived at the station, many of the passers-by turned to stare at him.
During their short duration at the station.
Some People of Xia who were at the station returning home had already heard of Ye Xuan’s spectacular performance at the Divine Nature Palace.
Especially since news about how he had killed two to three hundred Beast Tamers from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets and Silver Blood Alliance had spread far and wide.
Xia Beast Tamers who were waiting at the station were all shocked and could not believe their eyes.
“Ye Xuan, Jinghui, and I cannot chat with you for now. We have something to attend to and need to go promptly. Anyway, mark my words—you had better take good care of Xiao Ruru, or else you won’t be spared.”
After speaking with them briefly, Yao Hongyi and Wan Jinghui bid farewell and left.
Both of them appeared slightly hurried.
“Let’s make our way back. I need to think properly about how I can take better care of you. Or else, Hongyi won’t let me off the hook the next time I meet her.”
Ye Xuan remarked after Yao Hongyi and Wan Jinghui left.
Lin Shiru glared at him.
Following this, both of them quickly made their way to the space tunnel to make their way to Jiangzhou.
Swipe!
In a flash, they both disappeared, transported through the space tunnel.
And when they reappeared, they had already arrived at Cerulean Planet.
