Chapter 744 Crane Fairy, Bai Yu!
"Uh, there's no rush now, is there?"
Qin Feng said.
"No rush? The treasure is all in your hands, of course you're not in a hurry. No, no, I must be rewarded. I risked my life for it!" Xiao Wu pouted, "No, you have to reward me!"
"Alright..."
Qin Feng could only agree and asked, "What do you want?"
"Bai Yu!"
Xiao Wu blurted out, her eyes shining brightly.
Qin Feng was puzzled.
What is that?
Yu Xing'er, standing aside, heard the mention of Bai Yu and was surprised, "Is it the 'Bai Yu' of the Crane Fairy rumored in legends?!"
"Yes, that's it!"
Xiao Wu said.
Hearing "Crane Fairy," Qin Feng couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
The Crane Fairy and Young Master Bai He are completely different concepts. Young Master Bai He named himself after the crane to be refined and elegant. It had absolutely nothing to do with actual cranes.
But the Crane Fairy was different.
She was a legendary figure rumored to appear riding a crane, like a fairy in the tales.
Qin Feng had heard of her in Dragon Soul Village.
Whether it was the retired old Monk from the Dragon Zen Temple, Mr. Zhou who taught in the village, or the Beidou Old Divine Doctor, Shifang Taoist, and so on, whenever this name was mentioned, their eyes would light up as if they were seeing their first love.
It was said not only was the Crane Fairy beautiful but also ageless!
Unlike the Medicine King, who relied on concocting formulas to maintain his youth, she seemed like a true Immortal. Even after a hundred years, her beauty remained unchanged.
Qin Feng once heard the retired old Monk from the Dragon Zen Temple say that when he first saw the Crane Fairy, he was just a teenager. After seeing her once, he cried in the temple for three days and nights because he wanted to renounce monastic life and pursue the Crane Fairy, but was beaten and cried by the abbot with a stool.
Even now, decades later, whenever this name was mentioned, one could still see the glimmer of the past in his eyes.
However, the Crane Fairy was very mysterious.
She rarely showed her face.
"So, what exactly is the Crane Fairy's Bai Yu?"
Qin Feng inquired, puzzled.
Yu Xing'er then said, "It's a special Magic Artifact. Worn on the body, it can make a person as light as a swallow, enhancing their Qinggong by tens of times."
Xiao Wu, unable to wait, shook Qin Feng's arm impatiently, "Hurry up, give it to me! It's in the Qiankun Bag..."
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng's thoughts searched through the Qiankun Bag and finally found two white feathers.
Although they looked very soft and without any box,
they were brand new and exceedingly supple.
"Awesome!"
Xiao Wu exclaimed excitedly while holding one.
Yu Xing'er, seeing them actually produce it, was surprised, "Where did you get this from?"
"Oh, from the Supreme Sect." Xiao Wu replied with joy, "Before the battle started, I emptied several of their main warehouses. There were many great treasures, and Bai Yu was one of them."
"What?!" Yu Xing'er was astonished.
Xiao Wu busily thought she was surprised about the theft and quickly explained, "Qin Feng made me do it, you can't blame me."
"No, that's not what I meant, I mean... how did you do it?"
Yu Xing'er asked in amazement.
That's the main base of the Supreme Sect. How did she manage to empty it the night before the battle?
At this moment, Qin Feng held the Bai Yu and felt it for a while, saying, "This feather... doesn't seem to have any effect."
Xiao Wu, examining it as well, mumbled, "Strange, I can definitely feel the abundance of Spiritual Power, but why does it seem useless?"
"Firstly, it needs a blood recognition ritual to acknowledge an owner." Yu Xing'er stated, "Secondly, to restore it, Spiritual Power alone is not enough, you also need Immortal Energy. Ordinary Spiritual Energy cannot activate it, so it's unusable."
Xiao Wu had an epiphany, nodded, then immediately handed it to Qin Feng and said, "You handle it, don't tell me you didn't bring any."
Qin Feng was not a stingy person.
He took out a small jade screen, through which he directed two straits of Immortal Energy onto the two feathers.
Following that.
He and Xiao Wu each dripped their own blood onto their Bai Yu feathers.
Very quickly.
The feather suddenly burst into a bright light!
The brilliance was dazzling.
It illuminated the entire area.
Gradually.
As the light faded, the white feather also slowly vanished, transforming into a wisp of breath, which Qin Feng and Xiao Wu absorbed into their bodies separately.
"Fantastic!"
Qin Feng felt the essence of Bai Yu and instantly felt a load off his shoulders, his power soaring more than a notch!
He tried a small jump.
With little effort, he leaped directly onto the top of a tree more than ten meters tall!
He could never have done this before!
"Indeed, this is a fine treasure!"
Qin Feng and Xiao Wu exclaimed excitedly.
At this moment.
Yu Xing'er's eyes were wide with shock as she looked at Qin Feng in amazement.
She hadn't anticipated this at all.
Qin Feng actually possessed Immortal Energy!
In this era, how difficult could it be to find even a strand of Immortal Energy? It's simply a priceless treasure!
And Qin Feng actually had it!
The overly excited Xiao Wu, thinking Yu Xing'er was envious of them, immediately said, "Xing'er, I am truly sorry, there were only two Bai Yu feathers. I used one, and I didn't expect Qin Feng, this heartless guy, to use the other on himself without giving it to you. But you don't worry, all the treasure of the Supreme Sect is in his hands, and as his wife, they naturally belong to you too."
"..."
Yu Xing'er hurriedly explained, she wasn't envious of them.
At this time.
A crisp bird call suddenly pierced the night sky.
The three of them looked up.
To their astonishment, they saw a small bird with golden feathers flying over the forest.
In the darkness, it was particularly radiant.
"Little Gold?!!"
Xiao Wu was momentarily stunned.
Her expression solemn, she watched the direction in which the Golden Bird had departed, and then said to Qin Feng, "I have something to attend to, so I won't accompany you guys to your destination!"
With those words.
Without waiting for Qin Feng to speak, she dashed off in the direction of the Golden Bird!
Her cultivation might not be high.
But her qinggong movement technique was already exceptional.
Now, having absorbed the Crane Fairy Bai Yu's essence, she sped through the forest like a bird...
Seeing this, Qin Feng decided not to chase after her.
He knew that Xiao Wu had always been searching for something during her visit to Qinling, and perhaps that bird had led her to some clue.
"Is that... the Golden Lotus?!" Yu Xing'er exclaimed in surprise.
"You recognize it?" Qin Feng was also surprised.
"I've only heard of it."
Yu Xing'er said, "I once heard my father mention a golden bird in Qinling called Golden Lotus. It has a master who is said to be a peerless beauty. For the past decade or so, many people have been looking for this peerless beauty, but in the past three years, due to the contest for the number one in Qinling, they gradually forgot about it."
Hearing this, Qin Feng began to mutter thoughtfully.
Xiao Wu's parents disappeared long ago, and her movement technique closely resembles that of the peerless beauty rumored to travel with Wind Control. Now, she also affectionately called that bird "Little Gold." Could it be... that the peerless beauty is truly her mother?
"Let's leave these matters for later!"
Qin Feng waved his hand and said, "Our current mission is to go to Red Fire Palace!"
