Chapter 212 Absorbing [Moonlight Essence], the prophesied Holy Son
Above the sea of sand.
The moonlight is like a dream and fog, weaving into a beautiful picture.
Following Sha Jingjing’s prayer, the moonlight in the sky seemed to come alive, gathering closer and closer to the [Moonlight Boat].
The totem-like lines on the hull gradually light up.
In an instant, magical mysterious power flowed throughout the ship.
The moonlight spread over the deck, over the side of the ship, over the mast, and finally spread along the lonely mast, intertwining into a huge sail like yarn and mist.
[Moonlight Boat] sets sail in this vast sea of sand!
Rustling...
The friction of gravel replaced the sound of waves.
Xia En looked down and found that the sand in contact with the bottom of the hull suddenly softened, like quicksand. This allowed the [Moonlight Boat] to gallop on the sea of sand.
This is probably the effect of the totem textures on the hull being activated.
Xia En turned to look at the natives again, and no one was surprised to see that they all looked normal.
Obviously, they have taken this magical ship more than once.
“Brother, isn’t our [Moonlight Boat] powerful?”
"Whenever a tribe asks for help, each tribe will send a [Moonlight Boat] for support."
Besides, Ayi said in a showy tone: "This is something that only saints and saint candidates can open. Boat, maybe I can be its captain in the future!”
Xia En sincerely praised: “It’s really amazing.”
It can travel on land. This was his first time seeing a ship.
Furthermore, judging from the speed at which the scenery on both sides retreats, the speed of the [Moonlight Ship] is quite considerable, no slower than ordinary sea ships.
But soon, Xia En noticed that Sha Jingjing's movements had not stopped.
The [Sand Saint] of the Moon-Yearing Clan stood in the middle of the deck, looking up at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, and spoke a strange and ancient language in her mouth.
Then she began to dance in the moonlight.
That is definitely not an elegant court dance, let alone a performance dance that appears in the theater.
It was a sacrificial dance.
Her movements are primitive, ancient and barbaric, but they have an indescribable charm and beauty, as if they complement the falling moonlight.
In a trance, in Xia En's eyes, what was dancing in the moonlight was no longer a girl, but a giant silver-white wolf!
Ayi looked at Sha Jingjing with reverence and murmured.
"This is the [Moon Chanting Ceremony]..."
Her expression was very longing, but inexplicably, Xia En could hear a touch of sadness in her tone.
After a while, Xia En frowned slightly.
He noticed that as the [Moon Chanting Ceremony] progressed, Sha Jingjing's face became paler.
Her life force seemed to be draining away.
“The essence of this ceremony is actually a sacrifice.”
“Now it seems that what it sacrifices is the vitality of the saint.”
A realization arose in Xia En's heart: "No wonder the natives have this attitude towards the saint..."
The next moment.
“Aww——”
Sha Jingjing looked up to the sky and let out a long roar.
The rest of the Yongyue tribe also howled at the moon, with an indescribable sadness and desolation in their long howls.
At this time, the moonlight from high places became more and more solid, as if it was constantly condensing.
Finally it turned into a mysterious silvery liquid.
"This is the essence of moonlight. It can not only heal wounds, but also make our physical body stronger."
Ayi explained in a low voice.
But not long after, a puzzled look appeared on her little face.
"Eh? How come there are so many moon essences today?"
In mid-air, the volume of silver-white liquid did not slow down at all, and soon it was as large as a small pool.
In normal times, if you can get a large bowl of moon essence in one [Moon Chanting Ceremony], it is considered very efficient.
Not only Ayi, but other indigenous people also discovered the abnormality of this ceremony and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Surprise flashed in Sha Jingjing’s eyes.
No matter what, it's always a good thing to get more moon essence.
‘Perhaps the Lord of Radiance is moved by my sincerity and is willing to give more gifts! ’
However, as soon as Sha Jingjing came up with this idea, she discovered that the moon essence above her head suddenly seemed to have its own consciousness and was not under her control.
Not only that, even the misty moonlight seemed to be inspired by another existence and no longer lingered around her.
“What’s going on?”
Sha Jingjing suddenly panicked. This was the first time she encountered this situation.
In the inheritance of saints throughout the ages, it has never been said that such an abnormal situation would occur.
Sha Jingjing turned her head to look in the direction where the moonlight was flowing, and couldn't help but be stunned.
The moonlight, like running water and mist, lingered beside Xia En beside the deck, and did not dissipate for a long time.
The moonlight seemed to be cheering around him, blooming brightly for his arrival.
Even Sha Jingjing had never seen that kind of intimate gesture.
At this time, a breeze came and blew off Shane's hood, revealing his true appearance.
Under the silvery moonlight, his figure is slender and straight, and his already handsome face looks even more holy and refined.
Like... the agent of gods in the world!
This moment.
In the hearts of many Yongyue clan members present, there was an inexplicable urge to worship.
However, in Xia En's palm, the extraction of moon essence continued.
A steady stream of silver-white liquid is precipitating from the moonlight, making this pool of essence continue to grow.
Xia En didn’t know why he was able to do this. He just intuitively felt that he should do this, so he did it.
During this process, part of the moon essence was naturally absorbed by his body.
The feeling of moonlight entering the body is very strange, first there is a cool and moist feeling.
As it flowed through the body, it felt a little heavy, like drops of mercury.
——This is due to the special environment of [Sand Island]. Any secret power that can leave the body will be compressed extremely solidly.
But wherever this secret power flows, muscles and bones become stronger.
【You absorbed the "Moon Essence"! 】
[Quality: Precious]
[Type: Prop]
[Description: The essence extracted from moonlight. 】
【Can heal most trauma and slightly strengthen the physical body. 】
【Billions of radiances are all His supporters. 】
[But legend has it that in more ancient times, the authority of Moonlight was controlled by the "Scarlet Lord". 】
……
[Comprehensive quality: 4.51→4.54……]
[4.54→4.56……]
……
< br>
[Comprehensive quality: 4.6! 】
As the numbers on the panel jumped, the overall quality was finally fixed at 4.6!
The increase was not too big, but it also surprised Xia En.
With his current physical strength, every improvement is valuable.
And strangely, this kind of moonlight seems to have the effect of washing the body and mind. It not only cleans the clothes on the body, but also makes the mind particularly peaceful and stable.
However, when seeing the description on the panel, Xia En had a strange expression. "Blood Moon...[The Scarlet Lord] does seem to have a strong connection with the moonlight."
"But what this means is that His authority has been overthrown by billions of radiances. The Lord took it away?”
“No wonder He has that attitude towards the Lord of Radiance”
While thinking, Xia En clearly felt that his body was dealing with [Moon Flower Essence]. The absorption is close to saturation.
The improvement from continued extraction will only be minimal.
So, he waved his big hand lightly.
The essence of the surrounding moonlight fell like raindrops on Sha Jingjing and many indigenous people.
Of course, Shane also didn’t forget Ann and Tracey.
Both of them were given an extra large ball of moonlight.
Even though Xia En and the other three absorbed part of the essence, the total amount of moon essence this time was far greater than before, and the final amount of moon essence each received was still several times the usual amount.
The healing effect of [Moon Essence] is immediate.
As soon as it comes into contact with the wound, the vitality of blood and flesh is immediately stimulated, causing the flesh and blood of the wound to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The two gunshot wounds on Sha Jingjing’s body also healed.
However, after a brief surprise, the natives all looked at Xia En with surprised and alert eyes.
"Are you an outsider?"
"But why can you control the power of the moonlight? Isn't this the unique ability of the saint?"
The appearance features of the [Yongyue Clan] are very obvious , Xia En, who has no wolf ears and wolf tail, naturally exposed his identity immediately.
Ayi opened her eyes wide: "Brother, are you also a candidate for a saint?"
Xia En: "..."
His brain was spinning rapidly, trying to come up with a reasonable explanation.
But at this moment, an older native in the crowd murmured: "I remembered."
"Come on the night of the full moon, and share the moonlight in the sky. Dance..."
"The Son! He is the prophesied Son!"
"...The Son?"
Sha Jingjing looked dazed for a moment, and she also remembered the ancient prophecy.
It is said that one day in the future, a Holy Son will come to [Sand Island] and lead them out of this difficult situation.
Be able to live peacefully and happily like other races.
Just because this prophecy is too old, and the content is so beautiful that it is a bit unrealistic.
Not many young people of this generation remember this prophecy. Even if they do, they still disagree deep down.
But right now...
This strange situation seems to be the only way to explain it?
Xia En’s head was filled with questions.
It doesn’t matter that he is called the “Angel of God” by the sea people of [Coral City].
What the hell is the Holy Son?
If Xia En knew that Mr. Heller of the previous [Netherworld Sect] actually regarded him as the [Netherworld Saint Son], his mood would be even weirder.
"The thing is like this..."
Sha Jingjing walked to Xia En and explained to him the general ins and outs in a low voice.
Finally, she opened her bright eyes and asked with both anxiety and expectation.
“Are you... the prophesied Son?”
Shane fell silent.
He really didn't know how to answer this question.
While Sha Jingjing was waiting for his reply, the native at the helm suddenly said.
“Lord Saint, look ahead!”
Hearing this, Sha Jingjing and the other natives immediately turned their heads to look.
Not far away, in the dark and cold desert, there was a scarlet blood fire, burning brightly!
The firelight illuminated almost half of the desert.
Seeing this scene, the native who came to ask for help was so jealous that he shouted: "That's it!"
"Those damn outsiders!"
As soon as Xia En saw the ball of blood and fire, he quickly felt a sense of familiarity.
That kind of secret power that contains negative emotions in the filth, you can tell at a glance that it is the work of the vampires.
"However, it seems that there is no scent of Twilight's woman, nor the signature twin flowers..."
Xia En has already kept the smell of Twilight's blood in his heart, You can recognize it just by touching it.
“Did you get separated from your men?”
Judging from Twilight’s previous behavior, she obviously prefers to act alone and does not like to be restrained by others.
And this is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity!
Sha Jingjing had a resolute face and shouted: "Get ready to fight!"
Before she finished speaking, she pulled out a dark yellow long bow from the mark on her chest, the mysterious secret Power lingers on it.
The power of this longbow is so amazing that it can even hurt Twilight, who is suspected to be a sixth-level person.
The rest of the natives also took out their bows, arrows and long knives. The arrows and blades were all quenched with poison.
Although their technological level is lagging behind, their combat power cannot be underestimated.
The speed of [Moonlight Ship] is astonishing, and the distance between it and the bloody fire is rapidly shortening.
But due to the mighty momentum of this ship, the Vampires in the Bloodfire quickly noticed its arrival.
Suddenly, Xia En's eyes narrowed and he sensed several smells of blood approaching rapidly from the front.
“Enemy attack!”
Shane pointed in that direction.
Sha Jingjing and others have rich fighting experience, and their long bows immediately pointed in the direction pointed by Xia En.
Several vampires hiding their bodies emerged from the shadows of the sand dunes, and what greeted them were several arrows with astonishing power.
Sha Jingjing's bow and arrow seemed to have some kind of secret power in space, and it traveled directly through the space and came to the chest of the vampire.
Chi! laugh! laugh!
A small rain of arrows immediately shot these vampires to the ground.
The vampires had strong vitality and were not killed on the spot, but the poison on the arrow quickly spread within their bodies.
In the blink of an eye, they were transformed into mummies under the influence of the strange toxin.
The vampires behind were shocked. They had obviously used special secret techniques to hide their figures, so why were they discovered by the other party?
With the perception of [Blood Power], the disguises of the vampires are almost invisible to Xia En.
Then, Shane pointed in several directions in the desert.
At first, the natives were a little confused and didn't know why they obeyed the order of this outsider, but they just followed it subconsciously.
But soon, they discovered that every time Xia En gave an order, he could kill several vampires.
In addition, the miraculous scene of controlling the moonlight and the prophetic legend of the Holy Son.
Unknowingly, Xia En gained a lot of prestige among the indigenous people.
At this moment, an earth-shattering roar sounded from the blood and fire, and a large ax burning with blood and fire whirled towards the [Moonlight Ship].
Sha Jingjing immediately drew her bow and shot an arrow.
The dark yellow long arrows were shot out one after another with great force.
There was a loud "clang" sound, and several long arrows were directly split in half by the axe.
The ax continued unabated and headed straight for Sha Jingjing.
The girl's face turned pale and she was ready to use her last resort to fight against the enemy.
But at this moment, Xia En took a step forward, came to the big ax, and stretched out his seemingly white palm.
