Forsaken Immortals

Chapter 362 Cicada Wings

"We can continue forward." Jiaojiao looked at Bai Rouyun with sparkling eyes, as she jumped up from the ground. "We got a bit of energy back, so we don\'t need to keep wasting time here."

Although Jiaojiao had regained some of her energy, it was not even halfway towards her best condition, and the other children were in the same position.

"Although I understand your eagerness, you need to keep in mind that you are all young. A battle like the one you just experienced is great for training and further advancement, but you have to take the time to slowly digest what you have learned.

"For now, you should sit down and refine the Heaven and Earth Essence until your energy is back, you also need to mentally examine and comprehend the various experiences you encountered during the battle; what would you have done differently, if a chance was given, and which episodes worked out well for you?"

Bai Rouyun did not have Li Moyuns talents in training others, but she had a good understanding of her own cultivation throughout the past years. She had found that most of her comprehension came after an intense battle, and only these true challenges could push her further on her road of cultivation.

"Just sit down and relax, your dad and I will clean up the tunnel in the meanwhile." Bai Rouyun went to Jiaojiao\'s side and rubbed the top of her head, causing the soft hair to become frizzy.

"Let us go into the pagoda, that might be more suitable for us to reach enlightenment." Xiao Bao\'s voice came from the side, and he waved his hand, calling all the children into the first layer of the Primal Chaos Domain, to slowly cultivate and adjust their minds.

Bai Rouyun nodded her head in approval. "Although Xiao Bao looks like a small child, his mind is quite stable. Knowing that the Primal Chaos Dimension is more suitable for them, he took all his siblings inside to get the best results from their fights."

Looking at his satisfied wife, Li Moyun could not help but chuckle lightly. Among the entire family, he could not help but feel that Bai Rouyun was often the most childish of them all, although she was meant to be a parent.

Xiao Bao and Xiao Jin were both much older than the two of them, but their nature was still somewhat childish due to the protection and nature of their spirits. No one would, usually, treat such two spirits as equals, or even children, but more like tools and treasures.

Even Li Moyun only changed his view on these two little things due to Bai Rouyun\'s intentions. Although he, at the start, only viewed them as spirits and treasures, he slowly understood that they had their own personalities and characters.

It was also because of this initial distance that the children were more distant from Li Moyun. Although they accepted him as their adopted father, it was solely for the sake of making Bai Rouyun happy. In a way, the children and Li Moyun were all willing to play family for the sake of Bai Rouyun\'s happiness.

They could feel her sincere care for them, and also her longing for a happy family, so for her sake, they were willing to take on an identity that did not match them, and live with this role for the rest of their lives.

Everyone in their mismatched family just wished to pamper Bai Rouyun and make her cheerful and happy.

"Hey, Moyun, look at these cicadas. Their wings are quite special. Not only are they beautiful with a rainbow of colors, they also seem to possess a strange kind of energy within." Bai Rouyun was not wasting any time, but had begun to observe the countless cicada carcasses left behind in the tunnel, and planned to slowly get closer to the armadillo corpse.

She intended to use the armor on the armadillo to make some protective wear for her children, but before she reached the behemoth, she had to dig her way through thousands of cicadas.

Upon closer inspection, her eyes had been drawn to the beautiful cicada wings. They were transparent, but a rainbow-colored light kept fluttering across the surface, shimmering like the sun upon a river.

With each of these ripples of light, a slight fluctuation in energy would appear in the air, not much, but enough to make Bai Rouyun curious. She could not help but pluck a wing off one of the carcasses and slowly examine it in her hands.

The wing that had been removed did not lose the ripples of light, nor did the energy fluctuations get stronger or weaker, showing that even if they were removed, it did not matter.

Such wings were clearly special, but Bai Rouyun had never seen anything like it before, so she could not help but gasp at the beauty, and wonder what exactly these pretty things could be used for.

Each cicada had four wings, two larger on top, and two smaller at the bottom. They resembled butterfly wings, in a way, and she quickly plucked all four off the dead cicada she had taken before.

Looking at the four wings in her hands, two pairs with different sizes, she noticed that the lower wings, the smaller ones, had more light shimmering through, but the larger ones caused bigger ripples in the energy whenever the light went past.

"This is very strange." Bai Rouyun lost track of everything else as she sat down on a hill of dead insects, and continued to examine the wings in her hands.

A low chuckle sounded through the tunnel amidst the muttering voice of Bai Rouyun. Li Moyun could not help but shake his head as he looked at his absorbed wife, and slowly began to dissect all the insects present.
