The Emperor God Wife Is Naughty
72. Pure Body

Snow fell on the white trees with the wind blowing. The dark sky favors the cold of the region's thick snow, but it does not disturb the activity of certain animals that are now in human form.

A pair of black eyes opened, revealing a cold gaze looking at the snowfall in front of him. He had recovered his strength while absorbing the scattered fragments of his strength. Now his strength has recovered by approximately 60% so that he becomes stronger.

The Azure Dragon in human form knelt in front of him. "Your Majesty, one of His Majesty's shards of power has been found, it would be best to find another one soon."

"Back first."

"Is His Majesty going back to the Sky Palace?" Nga Azure thought Qu Xuanzi would soon rebuild the Sky Realm and recuperate there. After detaching from the seal, he no longer needed to be in the pendant and do the soul separation like before.

"Not there." Qu Xuanzi's words made the Azure Dragon think back to what place he was referring to.

After thinking about it, the Azure Dragon had a less agreeable look. "Your Majesty, at least His Majesty's power is restored by 80% so that nothing happens in the future. The more left, then the old wound of His Majesty will—"

"You dare to go against my orders?" Qu Xuanzi looked at him coldly.

The Azure Dragon gasped and immediately lowered its head. "Not brave," he tweeted. "Then, I'll suck everything up."

Qu Xuanzi did not reply anymore letting the Azure Dragon go. Somehow, he felt very eager to go back to the stupid girl who was always looking for trouble.

Xie Ran must have been at the glass pagoda and was doing his mission. He has to come back quickly before something worse happens than the chaos of the tournament.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

In the darkness, Xie Ran lit a fire in his blazing hand to illuminate. Nothing else but the walls made Xie Ran recall his experience in the cave twice in a row. This time he was with two dragons sitting on both shoulders.

"Master, that powerful aura is imminent. Does the Master want to keep going? Don't know what's in there." Long Huo was still worried since earlier.

"Don't know if you don't see it." Xie Ran remained relaxed without any burden. Although he sensed a strange energy, he did not feel such a great danger as Long Huo had said.

He kept walking and looked at each corner carefully. His views performed system-assisted scans and he was very sure there was nothing of interest.

After almost at the end of the road, he stopped his steps once he saw the scan results that showed there was an object inside the stone door in front of him.

Xie Ran was getting curious, was there any treasure in there? He pushed the heavy stone door. It took some effort to open it until his slender body managed to sneak in.

He sighs. "I thought I was pushing against the wall. It's heavy."

"I can push it easier if Master asks." Long Yun offered his services. Oh no, actually Long Yun considered himself strong enough to push the 'wall'.

Xie Ran ignored Long Yun as soon as a ray entered his eyes. Red and hot rays, but for him it feels attractive and 'expensive' so he walks to the origin of the rays.

There is a long oval ruby-shaped red stone and gives off a red light that is so hot. Xie Ran could only stand 2 meters away from the stone because his strength was suppressed when closer.

"Sarah, can you identify?" Xie Ran asked the system scan results.

"High magnetic-strength foreign objects derived from air that crystallize into crystalline rocks. It is likely that if triggered it will cause a massive explosion resulting in an air imbalance. Inside there is a gas that is corrosive to the heart and lungs. The relatively high content of the fire substance causes the air temperature to increase. The rest, there are unknown substances and most likely harmful to the body."

Xie Ran grew even more interested after hearing that. If he could try to steal it, his grab would not be in vain let alone that strange stone seemed to be non-proprietary since it was not made by any creature.

"What would happen if I took it?"

The system again scans and identifies it in Xie Ran's eyes. The image of the red stone and its inner layers is enlarged and the reaction picture will appear if a foreign body touches it.

"Not recommended to touch. Despite using a jade hand, his level was still low. The reaction will be seen when other objects touch and become very reactive so that it can emit large amounts of radiation. The concept is the same as nuclear."

"Nuclear ...." Xie Ran sighed. He cannot be careless if he does not want an explosion. Fortunately, he identified first to know all the possibilities that would happen. Otherwise, this building had collapsed from the beginning.

The two dragons who were originally silent looking at the red stone, started to react furiously and flew towards the stone especially Long Huo.

"Master, it's not an ordinary rock. It was a fire element that had crystallized due to the strong force pressure. His strength was so great that I myself could not approach him any closer. Otherwise, there'll be an explosion." Long Huo was the most excited.

"I think I know this energy." Long Yun started to digest what that thing was really about. "Ah, that seems to be a combination between the power of Lord God and the fire element. The element of fire could not crystallize if no other force suppressed it. It seemed like the power of the Lord God had suppressed the fire element to the limit and became dormant. But it won't last long, it'll explode sooner or later."

Xie Ran nodded in understanding. "It looks like this is the foundation that was said before. However, instead of reinforcing it makes it a time bomb. If it continues to be left, the academy could be wiped out."

"Then, how could the Lord God take it if the risk was the destruction of the academy?" Long Yun was confused as well as anxious. Somehow he had a bad feeling when he saw Xie Ran.

After a moment of thought, Xie Ran suddenly flashed a thin smile full of mysteriousness. "Everything has its risks. Sarah, if I absorb the fire element, how many percent of my body can survive?"

"50%" answered Sarah. "But it would be better not to absorb it. The impact that occurs on the body is an imbalance of body functions so that the muscles will not work properly and continue to expand due to elemental pressure. The worst result is an explosion."

"50% is more than enough." Xie Ran nodded confidently.

"What's sure?"

"... Yep!"

"Master!" The two dragons instantly tried to persuade. Although they did not know what Xie Ran was talking about with Sarah, they still knew what Xie Ran would do with just Xie Ran's words just now.

"Protect me. If anything happens, immediately form a barrier."

Xie Ran did not want to hear the enticements of the dragons anymore and instantly gathered his strength. The red light in his hand appeared and was directed towards the fire element that had crystallized.

It starts the absorption process slowly. The fire element reacted and channeled their energy based on the pull of Xie Ran. The fire element began to enter Xie Ran's body from the hand and gave off traces of red veins along Xie Ran's hand as the element's entry path.

The feeling of heat felt so painful spread throughout his body once the elements crept into a red stream like veins on his skin. The body like burning as well as the organs so that sweat out flooded the body.

The two dragons were getting more worried. If anything happened, certain emperors would not spare them. But unfortunately they couldn't help doing anything. If they were to interfere, it would be the same as making things worse for Xie Ran.

Xie Ran's heart raced harder and his body flushed red from the radiating heat. He felt like he was grilled in hell until he trembled and almost collapsed. He knelt next to his feet on the ground and still tried to absorb it to the point of exhaustion no matter how it turned out.

If Xie Ran could take out the fire element, his strength would increase faster and make a breakthrough. Its fire power had also increased and it could produce spiritual weapons better than before without fail. He can also take revenge faster. One more time, Qu Xuanzi could pick up a shard of his strength easily.

"Danger sign: Energy reduced by 40%."

Again Xie Ran felt weak to hear it. He had not absorbed some of the fire element but there was already a warning that his power was depleting so quickly. His strength was reduced so much just to absorb the fire element.

Since his magic power could not survive more than a portion of the fire element, he added his mental strength in the form of pure energy to alleviate the situation while helping the absorption process.

The pure energy was extremely powerful and had managed to ease his pain so far. But there was no heat that continued to burn his body. It was like he was in hell where he would be tortured to death and then revived.

"Master ...."

"Relax .. a little more ...." Xie Ran was still trying to absorb more than a portion of the fire element.

"Danger sign: energy reduced by 70%"

The fire element within his body moved so rapidly uncontrollably burning his entire organs. Even pure energy was unable to help completely and began to be suppressed by the fire element within the body. The longer, his entire organs were filled with fire until Xie Ran involuntarily shouted at the pain he was suffering from.

The sound of Xie Ran's cry was so loud and conveyed to his friends who were still cultivating in the eighth floor pagoda building. They were shocked, and realized something had happened to Xie Ran.

"Isn't he on the ninth floor? What's going on?" Zhong Xiaorong frowned deeply. His perception was sensitive and could sense strange energy changes around the pagoda.

They directly climbed the stairs to the ninth floor. They found nothing but strange strands of feathers that seemed to fall from a strand of red bird feathers. Strangely, a feather like a red hair felt very hot.

"Did something happen?" Mei Liena was getting anxious. His feelings were not good and he felt such a huge change in energy. Others feel the same way.

"We'll see you." Pei Xi immediately went downstairs realizing there was nothing on the ninth floor. He'll try to search outside. It was possible that Xie Ran found something outside causing him to get into trouble.

But when they went outside, they were startled by a huge movement from under the island. The lake water shook and gave rise to big waves. Even the two eagles waiting felt anxious and flew through the air full of fear.

In the distance of the island, just outside the lake. The faithful Ann Rou waited for these few days getting more serious and walked quickly right towards the barrier border.

"Old man, quickly open the barrier!" Ann Rou roared loudly until her voice echoed all the way to the center of the academy.

Four rays appeared simultaneously forming the four figures of the dean. The two deans looked at Ann Rou angrily while the rest realized faster the state of the glass pagoda.

"Who are you!" The dean of the apothecary department stared at Ann Rou sharply.

"You ... Aren't the women in the tournament who were with Xie Ran?" The dean of the forging department began to come to his senses and instantly assuaged his anger. So did the Dean of the apothecary department who had died down.

"It's not time to remember the past. Currently Xie Ran was in danger at the Pagoda. I have to go there!" Ann Rou immediately aimed at the Dean of the Academy ignoring the three deans.

At that moment, the two of them instantly realized the change of the Pagoda. They looked at the Dean of the Academy who also seemed to be feeling anxious holding onto his staff.

"What's wrong?" Ann Rou was impatient.

After a moment of silence, the Dean of the Academy began to speak. "The "center power of the pagoda was disturbed and was constantly diminishing. That makes barrier conditions erratic and difficult to break through. The heavenly power that protected the pagoda all this time strengthened the security of realizing the fire seal on the disturbed guard monsters. Looks like, the guard monsters will come out."

"Sea Dragon? Very good, I wonder how capable he is of facing me." Ann Rou folded her hands and realized something. "You said security was strengthened, doesn't mean the barrier can't be opened, right?"

The Dean of the Academy sighed. "Unfortunately the barrier is the main safeguard and cannot be opened until the guard monsters are calm again."

"Omong empty! I can't believe there's no barrier I can't break."

The cold air grew increasingly stifling to make the deans swinger to see Ann Rou. Ann Rou's hand took out an ice cube that was so big and cold that it caused the seasons to change so quickly.

Just as Ann Rou was about to cast her magic towards the barrier, her blue iris saw a familiar figure and made the cold air even more sticky.

"Devil."

Ann Rou changed her magic direction towards the deans. The deans were shocked and put up their respective protectors to withstand the attack.

The cold air brought by Ann Rou shot so fast and hit something that it caused strong winds to blow so big with the ice that spread froze the ground and trees.

The Dean of the Academy resisted Ann Rou's attack with 70% of her power. Ann Rou was much stronger than him until the Dean of the Academy felt weak after receiving Ann Rou's attack to protect the three deans behind her.

"Dean Bai!"

"What are you doing!" The dean of the pharmacist department was so angry and was about to launch an attack. But the Dean of the Academy immediately stopped him.

When the Dean of the apothecary department started to calm down, Ann Rou suddenly kicked the man next to her so hard that it bounced and hit the wall of the hill into ruins.

"You!"

Ann Rou looked at them coldly. He darted quickly towards the man and pulled his neck violently then threw him back towards the three deans.

"Bao Jun, don't you miss me? I met your friend who ran away like a coward who lost his tail." Ann Rou snorted and smothered her chest. "7000 years have passed, you still sucked like before and hid like a cowardly rat in a human armpit. Is that how Satan works?"

The three deans were shocked by Ann Rou's 7,000-year-old remarks? A devil? Did they not hear wrong?

"Miss, you seem to have misunderstood." The dean of the forging department tried to stumble.

Ann Rou laughed coldly. "My kiss was wrong. Even though he disguises his aura so well, I still know his ugly true form."

Bao Jun who was knocked down on the snowy ground snorted and stood up straight. The wounds all over his body healed on their own causing the three deans to be even more distrustful of his sight.

"Indeed the saint beast, it cannot underestimate its perception. But you're wrong, I'm not as weak as 7000 years ago." Bao Jun laughed superficially without caring for the sharp gazes of the three deans behind him who were shocked.

Just as Ann Rou was about to launch a backlash, she felt an energy fluctuation so great that her steps had stopped.

The sound of shards echoing so big accompanied by wind and storm waves blowing wildly. The barrier had broken along with the leaking of the lake to cause tidal waves to invade the land like a tsunami.

The Dean of the Academy tried to hold her down as well as others including Ann Rou. Then their gaze was startled by a bright beam that towered high up into the sky from the glass pagoda.

The energy emitted was so strong and pure. Very pure and refreshing without killing intent made the lake calm instantly. Such a huge beam of light was visible throughout the city and felt throughout the continent creating a furor as if a treasure had arrived before them.

Ann Rou who had pulled her power back was almost in disbelief. His face was so pale, different from the others who had faces as if finding precious and rare treasures.

"No way."

When in spite of his shock, he realized that the Devil had disappeared from his reach. He groans furiously.

"Damn!"

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

In the far north, some rays flashed so fast in the sky like shooting stars forming various bright colors and full of emphasis for the animals under the darkness.

Moonlight supports nighttime lighting, but moments after, other rays appear through the sky and emit so much energy.

Some of those rays stopped in the air looking at the skyline that was so striking and faint. Although it only happened for a few moments, it managed to cause a lot of commotion and tension between them.

"Your Majesty, what is the existence of a pure body?" Dou Dou involuntarily asked making him again hit Li Chen because of his unguarded mouth.

Qu Xuanzi's face grew increasingly tense. He knew what light was and where it came from. The existence of a pure body had appeared and was revealed just like that, Xie Ran would never be safe.

Unexpectedly, Xie Ran's pure body formed so quickly before his return. If Qu Xuanzi was there, he could pressure the pure body not to reveal itself and disguise it so that the existence of the pure body remained a secret. But he's so far away.

"Ranran, hang on for a minute."
