Chapter 293 Awakening, The Ice and Fire Dragon King's Lesson.
In a silent, dark abyss, Xuan Mo felt himself plummeting downwards. Suddenly, a familiar, beautiful face appeared in the sky above the abyss.
It was… Ning Rongrong!
She reached down from the abyss, trying to grab Xuan Mo. Xuan Mo looked at the hand so close, wanting to grab it, but his arm was too heavy to lift.
He could only let his body continue falling…
Suddenly, he awoke with a start.
When Xuan Mo looked up, he vaguely realized that the face before him wasn't Ning Rongrong's, but that of a young girl.
As Xuan Mo blinked hard, the figure gradually emerged before him—it was Xian Yun'er, the girl they had rescued earlier.
The two faced each other.
Xuan Mo couldn't help but secretly admire her beauty. While not as beautiful as Ning Rongrong, her figure was extremely well-proportioned, and she gave off a strong and capable impression.
However, he only admired her beauty.
After all, in his heart, there would be no room for a second woman besides Ning Rongrong.
Besides, Xian Yun'er…
Meanwhile, "Hey! You're finally awake!"
Seeing Xuan Mo awaken, Xian Yun'er's face showed obvious joy.
Then, before Xuan Mo could say anything, she ran to the other side and shouted,
"Uncle Big Sausage! Come here quickly! He's awake!"
"Hey! Wait a minute…"
Xuan Mo was about to stop her, but he didn't expect Xian Yun'er to be even faster than he anticipated, and she darted away in an instant.
However, when Xuan Mo tried to struggle to get up, a feeling of emptiness and soreness immediately swept over his body. The two feelings together made him gasp.
"Hiss! The aftereffects of that move are so uncomfortable…"
After getting up, Xuan Mo looked around and found that he was on the shore where he had finished fighting Long Ji.
Ma Hongjun was lying next to him, obviously still unconscious due to exhaustion of soul power.
However, Xuanmo, who then turned to look at the sea, was so shocked by what he saw that he was speechless.
What met his eyes was no longer the original azure sea, but an endless world of fiery red.
Patches of land appeared on the surface, and where the seawater remained, smoke rose from them. The intense heat felt like magma from a volcano.
Xuanmo stared dumbfounded at everything before him, utterly horrified, muttering,
"All of this, was it all done by that one move?"
At that moment, the scene of that soul technique's complete explosion flashed through Xuanmo's mind, and a chill ran through him.
"Heh! You brat, now you know fear? What about your recklessness just now?!"
The Fire Dragon King's voice, tinged with anger, echoed in Xuanmo's mind.
"Look what you've done?!"
The next second, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings connected their spiritual power with Xuanmo's, then instantly released it outwards.
Under the sweeping light of their spiritual power, Xuanmo grew increasingly terrified. Within hundreds of miles of sea, not a single trace of life could be found; it was nothing short of utter devastation.
"Hmph! Now you know, right?"
Xuanmo probed, looking at the enraged Fire Dragon King.
"Could it be that I wiped out hundreds of miles of sea creatures…?"
"Wrong! Utterly wrong!"
Before Xuanmo could finish, the Fire Dragon King roared, immediately interrupting him, furious at his incompetence: "Do you think I care about those hundreds or thousands of sea spirit beasts?!"
"Alright, Old Fire, don't get so worked up."
Seeing Xuanmo's puzzled expression, the Ice Dragon King calmed the fire dragon king, saying calmly, "The tragic deaths of these sea spirit beasts are nothing to us."
Faced with Xuanmo's shock, the Ice Dragon King extended its claw and touched a spot in Xuanmo's sea of consciousness, instantly releasing a surge of spiritual energy.
A cool sensation soothed Xuanmo's weary mind.
"As long as it doesn't completely threaten the survival or future of the soul beasts, we won't care about any of this. Besides, what you just did was merely self-defense. The world is simply a jungle where the strong prey on the weak. Since they see you as prey, they should be prepared to face death."
The Ice Dragon King's words sent a shiver down Xuan Mo's spine.
But before he could speak, the Fire Dragon King interrupted, "Now you know the consequences of using such a terrifying move under those circumstances, right? If you lose control of your soul power due to carelessness, you'll either suffer a backlash from the soul skill or die from the depletion of your soul power!"
Faced with the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings' accusations, Xuan Mo didn't refute or defend himself, because when he used that move, he knew he had completely lost control of his soul power.
If he hadn't been so lucky, he and Ma Hongjun would be in the situation the Fire Dragon King was describing.
"Alright, enough said."
At this moment, the Ice Dragon King seemed to sense something. Seeing Xuan Mo's silent, bowed head, he stopped the Fire Dragon King.
"We've said what we needed to say. We hope you'll think more about this in the future. Only with life on your side can you have a chance of winning. Back in the day... sigh!"
"Hmph! Consider this advice from our two predecessors, given to you for your recklessness."
With that, the Fire Dragon King, seemingly unconcerned, swung his dragon claw first, banishing Xuan Mo's consciousness from his sea of consciousness before the Ice Dragon King could act.
"You brat, get lost!"
At this very moment.
On the shore beside the Dragon Soaring.
"Uncle Big Sausage! Hurry up!"
Hearing Xian Yun'er's words, Oscar nearly went crazy.
But facing a beautiful woman younger than him, he still tried to smile, "You can call me Sausage Specialist, but don't learn the nickname 'Big Sausage Uncle' from Mu Lin."
"Hahaha! You're not Big Sausage Uncle yet!"
Mu Lin, who had just arrived, burst into laughter upon hearing Oscar's words, "Hong Jun and Mu Bai told me all your embarrassing stories before! Don't think I don't know!" "Damn fatso! How dare you ..."
"Alright!"
Faced with this chaotic situation, Ryder finally made the final decision with a cold face.
He took a recovery sausage from Oscar and stuffed it into Xuan Mo's mouth. "Didn't you see Xuan Zi is still lying down?!"
At this moment, Xuan Mo, who had somehow half-reclined and was still chewing on a sausage, looked at the group of people in front of him, and his lips twitched involuntarily.
He thought to himself: Goodness, thank goodness there are some sensible people here, the feeling of exhausting soul power is really unpleasant!
But while thinking this, his eyes had already looked around, and then he asked Ryder and the others, "By the way, how did Long Ji end up?"
