After an unknown amount of time, Xiang Nan woke up in a daze.
The first thing he said when he opened his eyes was to hurriedly ask, "Where is Xiao Jun? Is he dead?"
He was suddenly stunned, only to find himself lying in a small room. Yuan Meng and Feng Xuan were all there, and Hong Gang was sitting beside the bed.
"Damn, do you really want me to die so badly?" Xiao Jun came in with the tea curtain in his hand and just happened to hear Xiang Nan's words.
Xiang Nan scolded and let out a sigh of relief.
"You brat, you almost scared us to death." Yuan Meng laughed loudly, "I thought you wouldn't wake up."
Xiao Jun put down the tray. He came to the bedside and grabbed Xiang Nan's right hand tightly. "Brother, I owe you my life!" He said.
"You are the one who carried me out of the Abyss of Death. My life will be yours from today onwards!"
Xiao Jun rarely said anything crazy, which surprised everyone.
Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment. Then, he punched Xiao Jun's chest and scolded him with a smile, "Alright, I want to take back this life now. You should commit suicide and apologize."
"Holy shit!" Xiao Jun "felt like he was struck by lightning." He hurriedly took out a small mirror and looked at his beautiful face in the mirror. He felt pity for himself and said, "How can that be? If a handsome guy like me died, wouldn't all the female compatriots in the world be heartbroken?"
Yuan Meng said weakly, "If you say one more word, I will personally send you to your death."
Hong Gang couldn't help but laugh, "Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. Since Xiang Nan is awake, I'm relieved."
Xiang Nan looked at Hong Gang and said, "I was unconscious for a few days. Where is this? Where is the sect ranking tournament?"
Hong Gang said, "You've been unconscious for five days. Xiao Jun woke up two days ago, and you're still in the Nether Lightning Prison."
"Don't worry, under the tremendous pressure from our Star Guild, your Southern Domain's Sect Qualifying Tournament has been postponed."
"After you fully recover from your injuries, you will continue."
"Since you're awake, you can leave early tomorrow morning and return to Black Tortoise City."
Xiang Nan heaved a sigh of relief and thanked Hong Gang.
"If I were to talk about your physical fitness, even I would be ashamed of being inferior to you." Yuan Meng sighed, "You don't know how many injuries you have suffered. If it were me, not to mention carrying Xiao Jun back, I'm afraid you would have died halfway."
"Ah?" Xiang Nan looked at Xiao Jun curiously, "Am I the one who carried you back? Shouldn't you be the one who carried me?"
Xiao Jun withdrew the small mirror and said to Xiang Nan solemnly, "That's right, I carried you back."
"You should thank me. When we get back, you need to help me get twenty beautiful virgins. Do you understand?"
Before Xiang Nan could react, Xiao Jun covered his stomach and said, "Aiyo, this young master is hungry. It's time for dinner outside. Hurry up and eat."
After saying that, this brat ran away in a flash.
Yuan Meng sighed and said, "Xiang Nan, have a good rest. I'll go out to eat as well and take care of this little bastard Xiao Jun."
"There are quite a few women among the guards of the Star Guild. I have to make sure that they won't be harmed by Xiao Jun."
"I'll bring you some wine and meat later."
Xiang Nan deeply thought so.
After Yuan Meng left, Feng Xuan moved the stool to sit beside Xiang Nan. He looked at Xiang Nan with a gaze that looked at fresh creatures.
Xiang Nan suddenly remembered something. He said, "Oh right, Feng Xuan, there's something you need to take a look at for me."
"Although I can be considered knowledgeable, I'm not proficient in the Xuandao profession."
"You're better at this than me."
Xiang Nan took out the strange black diamond.
Feng Xuan held the black diamond in his hand and weighed it. Then, he used his Yuan Qi to condense it into a double-sided arc mirror. Through the mirror, he enlarged the gem and carefully observed it for a long time.
"I haven't seen him before."
Half a day later, Feng Xuan shook his head.
Xiang Nan was disappointed. "Don't you even recognize this thing?"
Feng Xuan was a core disciple of the Xuanming Sect, and he had a thorough understanding of all kinds of things.
If he couldn't even tell what it was, there wouldn't be many people in the world who could recognize it.
Feng Xuan asked curiously, "Where did you get it?"
Xiang Nan thought for a moment and recounted the entire process of guarding the spatial rift.
After hearing this, Feng Xuan nodded silently and analyzed, "I have noticed two points. Let's talk about the first one first."
"You don't know from which demon this black diamond fell, but according to your analysis, there is at least a 50% chance that it came from that giant demon."
"This black diamond could be a piece of armor on the demon's body, or it could be a crystal in its head."
"Jingshi?" Xiang Nanqi said.
Feng Xuan nodded and said, "This kind of thing has never appeared in our human world. If it really is a crystal stone, let's temporarily name it 'Demon Crystal'."
"The giant Abyss Devil you described should be above the Purgatory level."
Xiang Nan said, "Above the Purgatory level? But I don't think that Abyss Devil is particularly terrifying. At the very least, the Sun Sword Qi can kill him."
Feng Xuan said, "You understand that there is a mistake. The higher the rank, the higher the realm. The rank is just their racial hierarchy."
"Nightmare level demons also have the Heaven Origin Realm or even the Heaven Scryer Realm, while Purgatory level demons also have the Heaven Origin Realm or the Heaven Origin Realm."
"I understand what you mean." Xiang Nan nodded, "You said that the giant demon is a high-level race of demons, but its realm hasn't risen to too high."
"That's what I meant." Feng Xuan played with the black diamond and said, "Do you mind lending it to me? I want to use all kinds of methods to test its attributes."
"Just take it." Xiang Nan waved his hand carelessly.
Feng Xuan nodded and said, "The second point is the Lightning Escape you mentioned."
"Through your description, I discovered that your Lightning Escape possesses the ability to penetrate matter, but it is unable to penetrate life forms."
"If the Void Stone in your mind really exists, then it shouldn't have such an attribute."
"Yes." Xiang Nan said thoughtfully, "Void stones can allow me to penetrate all the stones, trees, Yuan Qi barriers, but can not penetrate the human body, this is also what I have never thought of."
Feng Xuan said, "I have a guess. The Void Stone itself does not possess intelligence, but it exists in the head of a human being like you."
"It can't tell the difference between you and other lifeforms, so it chose to refuse to penetrate all lifeforms."
"Otherwise, when you use Lightning Escape, your body will automatically disintegrate and merge into nature."
"What do you mean?" Xiang Nan was suddenly shocked.
Feng Xuan nodded, "If we have a way to strengthen your Spirit, let your Spirit help it make a choice."
"In that case, the Void Stone will not only give you the ability to move for a hundred miles in a second, it will also allow you to directly merge with the world and have an extremely short-lived ability to disappear."
"In other words, you can temporarily not exist."
Xiang Nan was shocked, "It doesn't exist for the time being? Doesn't that mean … I can dodge any attack in an instant?"
"Yes." Feng Xuan nodded.
