Chapter 454: As Good As Not Wearing!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
In the next moment, a sea of fire appeared before Gu Qingluan’s eyes.
This sea of fire was different from the one in the cave.
The cave had limited s.p.a.ce, but here it seemed boundless.
Apart from the flames, there were many whirlpools.
Occasionally, she could see black holes appearing, devouring the flames.
Suddenly, danger approached.
Gu Qingluan agilely dodged, and a black hole silently appeared where she had just stood.
The s.p.a.ce there collapsed rapidly.
Could this place be Feng Tianlan’s mental realm?
Gu Qingluan was slightly stunned.
She glanced around and faintly saw a white light in the distance.
She hurriedly flew over, only to find a man lying in the sea of fire, surrounded by light.
If it wasn’t Feng Tianlan, who else could it be?
Had he pulled her into his mental realm using his consciousness?
What did this mean?
Gu Qingluan called out to him several times but received no response.
She pursed her lips and approached him.
He was wearing a red robe, with a wide neckline that exposed a large expanse of fair skin.
It was as good as not wearing anything at all!
He had a handsome appearance that was unmatched in the world, truly tempting and almost criminal!
Gu Qingluan’s cheeks instantly flushed, as if they were being heated by the surrounding flames. She couldn’t help but shift her gaze away.
This guy’s spiritual form was dressed rather provocatively.
Thoughts of what the three Saint Beasts had said earlier involuntarily crossed her mind.
She quickly shook her head as if trying to shake off those confusing thoughts.
It was their fault for mentioning all those confusing things, otherwise, why would she suddenly think of such things?
Gu Qingluan silently recited the Clear Heart Technique to calm her state of mind.
Clearly, Feng Tianlan’s mental realm had been heavily damaged and was very unstable. She needed to find a way to save him as soon as possible.
After reciting the Clear Heart Technique several times, she regained her composure. When she looked at Feng Tianlan again, although her face was still red and her heart was racing, she was much calmer than before.
She crouched down and placed her fingers on his pulse.
However, there was one crucial detail she had overlooked.
Both of them were currently in a spiritual state.
It might look like she was examining his pulse, but in reality, their spiritual forms were making contact.
The human soul is a mysterious and highly personal ent.i.ty. When touched, it instinctively retaliates to safeguard itself.
Usually, cultivators steer clear of interacting with others’ souls. If they do happen to cross paths, it’s usually a brief encounter followed by a hasty exit, or in some cases, even an intentional hostile act.
One’s mental realm was even more private and was rarely opened to outsiders.
Gu Qingluan didn’t understand why Feng Tianlan had pulled her into his mental realm.
The moment her consciousness touched his spiritual form, an electric current rapidly surged from the point of contact into her own soul.
Gu Qingluan’s body, or more accurately, her soul, experienced a momentary numbness. During that instant, her mind went completely blank, and her soul trembled!
It was an indescribable sensation. It couldn’t be called pleasant, but it wasn’t uncomfortable either. It was just incredibly strange.
When she regained her senses, she found herself lying on top of his spiritual form.
Her entire body felt hot and weak, and her arm had somehow wrapped around him.
And Feng Tianlan, who had been lying still, suddenly moved.
His eyes remained closed, but his hand pressed against the back of her head, bringing her closer to him.
His other arm wrapped around her waist, keeping her tightly pressed against him, as if he were afraid she would run away.
The closer their contact, the more intense that trembling sensation became.
Gu Qingluan’s expression changed dramatically, and she struggled to break free.
Feng Tianlan seemed to sense her intentions and firmly held onto her slender waist. The flames around them enveloped the two of them tightly. From a distance, it looked like a fiery sphere, or perhaps a circular bed of flames.
Gu Qingluan couldn’t break free at all, and her soul seemed to have a will of its own, willingly entwining with his..
