Chapter 425: Spiritual Shield

TL : GoldenLung

Yuanen Huihui said with a smile : This is extravagant ? Theres still more to it. He knew how much preparation Lan Xuanyu had made for this mission.

There was a cubic meter of resources in the storage bracelet. It included a few types of spirit fruits that could be used for replenishment and treatment, as well as the Sea God Lake water, and a large amount of food made from rare ingredients. In any case, the food that they brought was enough for their entire team to eat for half a month. From the beginning, Lan Xuanyu did not even consider that the academy would provide them with food during the mission. He had made ample preparations.

And this was him not knowing the specifics of the mission. Otherwise, he would have brought a small soul excavator with him. With it, the excavation of the rare metal would definitely have been faster.

Huihui, give me the Spiritual Shield. Lan Xuanyu gestured to Yuanen Huihui.

Yuanen Huihui took out a fist-sized metal ball from his storage bracelet and handed it to Lan Xuanyu.

Lan Xuanyu said, We will cross the mountain range later. If Im not wrong, we will definitely encounter some unknown dangers. I will use my Blue Silver Grass to wrap everyone together and make sure that we dont get split up. We will move according to the formation we used when we were sent flying the first time. Everyone, get ready.

You even brought a soul device? Tang Yuge looked at the metal ball in Lan Xuanyus hand and was speechless.

En, for everyones safety, I brought a few, Lan Xuanyu said casually.

How many? Tang Yuge was at a loss for words.

The Spiritual Shield was not made to be used for a single person. It was a small mecha shield and was used for defense by mechas. It was quite expensive and was a one-time use only shield. Generally speaking, mechas above the purple rank would carry it with them. When ones own shield was unable to block an attack, this Spiritual Shield could be used for a short period of time. Although it was a one-time use, due to its small size and light weight, it was very well liked by mecha masters. If they could afford it, they would always prepare one.

Lan Xuanyu shrugged his shoulders and said, The academy didnt say that were not allowed to use the soul devices. Right, senior sister?

Thats right, you must think flexible, Yuanen Huihui said matter-of-factly. Big brother Xuanyu, do you want more?

Tang Yuge of course knew that the academy didnt say that they wouldnt allow it, but a Spiritual Shield was very expensive! Very expensive. How many Outer Court students could afford it? She was already considered very rich in the Outer Court, but she wouldnt bear to spend money on it! Lan Xuanyu bought a few at once. How much money could they still have left?

The reason why Lan Xuanyu was so willing was actually related to his forging. His forging success rate was much higher than what Yang Yingming had said. This meant that he could rely on forging rare metals to exchange for some emblems in the future. Since that was the case, the value of emblems wasnt that high anymore. In order to ensure good results for the final exam, he was naturally willing to spend money.

After leaving the auction house that day, he brought everyone to purchase the storage bracelet. And then food, water, and soul devices!

If not for the limited space of the soul storage device, he would have even wanted to buy a soul car to bring along the kind that could move on all terrains.

After half an hour of rest plus the replenishment from the Sea God Lake water and rare ingredients, everyone quickly recovered to their peak condition.

They sensed the changes in the outside world for a moment, as there were no whirlwinds the ice house was removed. Everyone continued to walk again.

Climbing a mountain was naturally not a problem for them. Taking advantage of the lack of wind, they quickly ascended the first mountain.

Standing at the peak and looking into the distance, one couldnt see the end of the mountain range.

There were no plants on this Resource Planet that was mainly made of metal. At this moment, while standing high up, there was a sense of desolation.

Lan Xuanyu looked at the map. The map wasnt very detailed and could only distinguish directions, but it didnt have a 3D map of the entire mountain range. They could only go forward while fumbling.

Wu wu wu, wu wu wu! Just at this moment, there were howls that sounded like the wails of ghosts and wolves coming from the col ahead. It was undoubtedly produced by a violent wind that echoed in the col.

Lan Xuanyu said with a solemn expression, Due to the terrain, the intensity of the whirlwind here might surpass that of the outside world. Everyone, be careful. Lets go.

After confirming a direction with no howling winds, Lan Xuanyu led the team on their way again.

Their journey was relatively smooth and they would occasionally encounter some whirlwinds, but they werent too strong and were able to rely on the ice house to resist. Half an hour later, they had already gone deep into the mountain range and climbed over a dozen small hills. At this speed, they should be able to cross this mountain range in about four to five hours and reach their destination.

Perhaps it was because everything was going too smoothly that everyone relaxed slightly. Could it be that the final exams mission was actually really limited to resisting some whirlwinds ?

Lan Xuanyu didnt think so. If that was the case, they wouldnt have been asked to obtain just one more type of metal at the beginning. The most difficult part should have been outside the mountain range or in the mountain range.

Just as he was thinking about it, Lan Xuanyu suddenly felt the Dragon God scale on his chest heating up slightly as a stifling feeling lingered in his heart.

He raised his head subconsciously and looked into the distance. Other than the sound of the air in the mountain range, there were no other changes. Everything seemed to be the same as before, extremely normal.

Everyone, be careful, it might be dangerous, Lan Xuanyu shouted.

At this moment, everyone was climbing the mountain. Upon hearing his voice, they immediately became alert.

Right at this moment, a strange aura suddenly appeared. Cracks suddenly appeared on the mountain they were climbing.

Tang Yuge, who was at the back of the team, suddenly widened her eyes because she suddenly felt a surge of energy in the air.

Lan Xuanyu felt it too. It was a very thick elemental wave. Was that earth element ?

Just as he was deep in thought, a thick stone spike suddenly shot out from the mountain wall. In front of this stone spike was Dong Qianqiu.

As Lan Xuanyu was on his guard, he reacted immediately and pulled the silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass around Dong Qianqius waist with his right hand, pulling her away from the mountain wall.

Dong Qianqius reaction was very fast as well. She struck out with her right hand and her palm turned dark blue, as hard as ice.

With a bang, the stone spike shattered and her body swung into the air.

And this stone thorn was just the prelude. After it, stone thorns suddenly swarmed out like a porcupine.

Lan Xuanyu extended his body and slapped his right hand on the mountain, pushing himself up. The first things he pulled were the two strands of Blue Silver Grass that were wrapped around Lin Donghui and Yuanen Huihui. They were weaker in close combat and were the easiest to hurt.

Facing the stone spikes, the others displayed their abilities.

Tang Yuges fifth soul ring lit up and her control of the five elements changed into earth. A layer of yellow light covered her body and those stone thorns actually avoided her automatically without attacking her.

Yuge, stabilize. Lan Xuanyus voice came over. Tang Yuge was very experienced in battle and understood what he meant. She suddenly thrust her arms forward and both her arms stabbed into the stone wall.

The silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass was wrapped around her waist as well and she hung herself on the mountain wall.

Lan Mengqin floated in the snow wind. Even though she was in midair, her entire body seemed ethereal as she floated for a short period, easily dodging the stone thorns attacks.

Yutian and Bing Tianliang leaped up together. Bing Tianliang transformed into lightning and was extremely fast. He supported Yutians armpit with one hand. When the two of them separated themselves from the mountain wall, Yu Tian slashed out with the modao in his hand. Wherever his heavy modao passed by, rocks would immediately be shattered.
