Chapter 2342 - 2340: Amnesia?

The Soul Erosion Wind that had been lingering by his side suddenly dispersed, and behind Lu Ye, the stone statue collapsed, turning into fragments.

This fellow was actually a Dao Fusion cultivator, something Lu Ye hadn't detected before, and its strength wasn't low, reaching up to the 7th-8th Order.

But such strength, now before him, was already not worth considering.

Moreover, it thought Lu Ye was just an Enter the Path cultivator and could be handled at will, but carelessly kicked a steel plate instead.

This experience made Lu Ye secretly alert. Although his current strength was undoubtedly impressive, the peculiarities in the Star Abyss were too many. Take the stone statue, for example: dealing with it wasn't difficult for him, but the Soul Erosion Wind was bizarre and unpredictable.

Fortunately, it wasn't too lethal; otherwise, it would have indeed been troublesome.

It had mentioned before that it had killed dozens to hundreds of Dao Fusions, probably using this method to lure and kill them.

This time, the reason it didn't directly act against Lu Ye, an Enter the Path cultivator, was probably due to targeting the phoenix egg. It might not have known what it was, or perhaps it knew but feared the conflict's aftermath would harm the phoenix egg, so it wanted Lu Ye to hand it over voluntarily.

As he sheathed his blade, Lu Ye looked up, brows furrowed.

After waiting a moment, his brows furrowed even deeper.

There was no Star Abyss Blessing!

This was obviously not right.

Before this, every time he killed a Dao Fusion, he would receive a Star Abyss Blessing.

Right now, he should be considered the Star Abyss Heir, with a greatly increased probability of receiving the Star Abyss Blessing; it shouldn't be like this.

But after waiting for a moment, there was no movement above his head, indeed no Star Abyss Blessing.

Lu Ye couldn't figure out what this situation was. The stone statue was considered the first Dao Fusion he had killed since leaving the stellar space fragment, and becoming the Star Abyss Heir seemed to not only fail to increase the blessing probability but rather decrease it?

If so, what's going on?

The benefits each Star Abyss Blessing brought him, although not huge individually, were quite considerable when accumulated over time.

Things had gotten a bit strange.

Whether the probability of receiving a blessing had decreased was still uncertain; he'd have to kill a few more Dao Fusions to find out.

Lu Ye turned to search among the fragments of the stone statue. Since this guy was a Dao Fusion cultivator, there must be a Dao Bone, which couldn't go to waste.

Soon, Lu Ye found a few pieces amidst the rubble that looked somewhat unique. These were undoubtedly the Dao Bones of the stone statue, as they contained a very rich Dao force.

Soon, another item amidst the debris caught Lu Ye's attention.

He reached out, took it, and upon careful inspection, was slightly taken aback.

Because this thing was nothing else but a Star Abyss coin!

He was very familiar with this; during the competition in the stellar space fragment, he could get a coin for every enemy he killed. However, that was under specific circumstances, granted by the Will of the Star Abyss.

How could there be a Star Abyss coin here too?

He could confirm that it wasn't something he had left behind because, during the final battle earlier, to avoid waste, he and Su Yan had already exchanged all remaining Star Abyss coins into Dao Bones to refine, replenishing their respective Dao forces.

In the final battle, he was also far too busy to pick up the scarce Star Abyss coins.

So he had no Star Abyss coins on him, and neither did Su Yan.

But after the stone statue's death, a coin appeared among the debris.

Could it be...

Lu Ye held the Star Abyss coin, lost in thought.

Connecting his mind to the item, he soon saw a vast treasure vault space, just like he had seen in the stellar space fragment. However, this space was larger and more expansive, and the treasures contained within, in both quantity and variety, were incomparable to before.

Was it really so?

In this case, does this count as a benefit of being the Star Abyss Heir?

Previously, during competition, cultivators could connect to this treasure vault, but only temporarily. However, if one became the Star Abyss Heir, this benefit would be permanent.

The Star Abyss Blessing hadn't descended, but he obtained a Star Abyss coin instead. Was this a profit or a loss? Lu Ye couldn't say for sure at the moment.

But speaking of it, he really wanted to redeem something from that treasure vault, which was that affiliated treasure, the water gourd...

He wanted to gather seven treasure gourds to see what change would occur.

He hadn't had the chance before. If he could continue obtaining Star Abyss coins like this in the future, he could redeem the water gourd once he had enough.

This was a good thing for him.

In high spirits, Lu Ye quickly diverted part of his consciousness to explore the many treasures in the treasure vault.

A moment later, he came back to his senses slowly.

Greatly astonished!

Because this place, which could be tentatively called the Star Abyss Treasury, even held supreme treasures! And in considerable quantity, meaning that with enough Star Abyss coins, he could even exchange for stellar space supreme treasures from it!

Below the supreme treasures, various affiliated treasures were also abundant and dazzling, with far more types than before.

However, whether it was affiliated or supreme treasures, their prices were quite substantial and beyond what Lu Ye could currently covet.

As it turns out, this kind of convenience was something all Star Abyss Heirs had. Since he had it, Su Yan should also have it, and so did the Star Abyss Heirs of the past generations.

Except this information had never been leaked, so it was entirely unknown.

It's alright not to be able to exchange now; as long as he continues defeating enemies in the future, there will always be a chance.

Composing his thoughts, Lu Ye continued on his journey.

A few days later, on a meteorite, Lu Ye sat calmly, staring intently at the phoenix egg in front of him.

Unexpectedly, half a day ago, a crack appeared on the surface of the phoenix egg!

And as time passed, the cracks on the egg became more and more numerous.

This made Lu Ye realize that Su Yan must be about to be reborn.

Considering the time, it was just over a month since she performed the Nirvana Technique.

Lu Ye originally thought he would have to wait a very long time...

Such a major event, of course, he dared not neglect, and he stopped immediately, quietly waiting here.

As the cracks on the phoenix egg continued to increase and widen, golden flames gradually flowed out, enveloping the entire egg, making it hard to see clearly.

Lu Ye watched nervously.

He had heard that the phoenix's Nirvana is not always successful; there is a risk of failure, and once it fails, it's truly perishing.

Of course, he didn't know whether the information he got was accurate or not. Right now, he had no power to help, so he could only pray silently.

Gradually, the phoenix egg completely turned into a golden sphere of light, with something seemingly incubating inside.

Until a certain moment, the golden flames suddenly surged, a pair of beautiful golden wings spread open, and meanwhile, a slender, hazy figure was wrapped within the twisted golden flames.

The light slowly dissipated, and Lu Ye was left staring in a daze.

Because the person who appeared in front of him was indeed Su Yan, but she looked much younger and more naive than a month ago.

If Su Yan looked like a mortal girl of twenty-five or six a month ago, now she appeared ten years younger.

Only fifteen or sixteen.

Even the once prominent bosom had become a small mound...

This... can Nirvana reverse aging? It was Lu Ye's first time seeing this and he felt quite amazed.

Youthful Su Yan was wearing an extremely gorgeous dress, which should have been a manifestation of her power. At this moment, she had her head lowered, with wings on her back fluttering slightly.

Lu Ye quietly extended his Mental Consciousness to sense, unable to detect anything unusual from her, but he didn't understand why she hasn't awakened yet.

Until Lu Ye accidentally noticed her slightly trembling eyelashes and realized that she was actually awake.

Was this... being shy?

Lu Ye suddenly realized, after all, something had happened before where neither he nor Su Yan was prepared.

And that time was quite wild, one could even say Su Yan took more initiative.

After all, they weren't familiar to that extent, and previously in the stellar space fragment, they had merely cooperated and were schemed against by the hidden trap left by Qi. It was quite normal to feel embarrassed, especially for a woman, even one from the Phoenix Tribe.

Lu Ye silently pondered how to break this awkward silence, after all, since Su Yan had been reborn, it wouldn't be possible to continue interacting like this, that would be quite awkward.

But before he could think of anything, Su Yan slowly opened her eyes.

"How are you feeling?" Lu Ye hurriedly asked, although Su Yan seemed fine, Lu Ye wasn't sure if her Nirvana this time counted as successful, any hidden dangers would be troublesome.

Su Yan seemed to not hear him, frowning as she looked at him, only speaking after quite a few moments: "Who are you?"

Lu Ye stared at her, his expression slowly growing serious: "You don't recognize me?"

Su Yan slowly shook her head: "Very familiar, but I can't remember."

Lu Ye blinked, and if he hadn't seen the slight flicker of Su Yan's eyes, he would have almost believed her words.

The key was, after saying that, Su Yan averted her eyes, a blush flashed across her cheeks.

She looked around, appearing quite calm.

Lu Ye couldn't help but laugh.

He had never known before that this woman could lie with her eyes open.

This is real shyness, so she pretended to have amnesia after Nirvana?

"What do you remember?" Lu Ye asked.

Having figured out Su Yan's thoughts, Lu Ye wasn't planning to expose her. If she thought this was okay, then let it be; exposing it would only embarrass her.

But some things still needed to be asked.

"I remember I'm from the Phoenix Tribe, I performed the Nirvana Technique, and since you're by my side, you must be my... friend, right?"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes." Lu Ye continuously nodded, "I'm Lu Ye, you used to call me Senior Brother Lu."

"Senior Brother Lu," Su Yan called softly, lowering her head as if she recalled something and her neck turned a shade of crimson.

Lu Ye found it amusing.

Su Yan couldn't help but raise her head and glare at him.

Lu Ye nearly burst out laughing, hurriedly averting his gaze, and asked, "What are your plans now?"

Su Yan thought for a while and then shook her head: "None yet." She then asked, "How about you, Senior Brother?"

"Me..." Lu Ye looked towards Banlan, "I need to go that way, my home is in that direction."

"Then I'll follow you, Senior Brother," Su Yan said.

This somewhat surprised Lu Ye.

He thought Su Yan would most likely leave after her rebirth, since she had that intention when leaving the Star Abyss Fragment, but now, she had somehow changed her mind.
