After the thunderstorm, the spiritual energy was at its most abundant, presenting a rare opportunity.
While Ruan Fuxi sat in meditation, the black serpent quietly kept watch beside her. It had already transformed into a flood dragon and had broken through from the Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage. With such profound cultivation, other creatures on the island were extremely wary of it, eager to avoid any confrontation.
The black flood dragon picked up a nearby star plate, which was now shattered and completely blackened. Fortunately, it was not entirely destroyed and could still be repaired. If it hadn't been for the star plate and the merits of its companion that helped it survive the thunderstorm, it would likely have been obliterated by the lightning. Such a great favor must be repaid.
As the black flood dragon pondered, Ruan Fuxi's aura began to change. The sky, which had just cleared, was once again covered by dark clouds, layer upon layer, turning day into night. Lightning flickered behind the clouds.
Seeing the ominous clouds, the black flood dragon immediately took the star plate and left, setting up a barrier around the area. It looked at Ruan Fuxi, who was at the center, and couldn't help but feel amazed: this companion truly had good fortune; in just an instant, she had broken through from Foundation Establishment to early Golden Core stage. Such talent for cultivation was simply terrifying. Even it could not compare.
Then it gazed at the impending lightning above, contemplating whether she would safely pass through this tribulation. If she were to fail her tribulation, it would not stand idly by; it would do everything possible to protect this companion's life.
At that moment, Ruan Fuxi had just established her Golden Core and opened her eyes to face the descending lightning. Just as she was about to confront it, she noticed that the lightning vanished before striking her.
Immediately afterward, the dark clouds dispersed, revealing the sun once more. Ruan Fuxi blinked in surprise—had she really completed her tribulation so easily?
The black flood dragon, who had been on high alert to rescue her, was also taken aback. Why were their tribulations so different? How could there be such a disparity in treatment? It seemed rather unfair.
However, regardless of the circumstances, a smooth breakthrough was certainly a good thing.
Ruan Fuxi stood up and said, "Thank you for protecting me just now. I also congratulate you on your successful breakthrough to Nascent Soul."
The black flood dragon replied, "You need not call me senior; my name is Xuan Ye. From now on, let us address each other by our names."
It continued, "There is no need for thanks; even if I hadn't intervened, this thunderstorm would not have harmed you. It seems that your merits are strong enough that this tribulation passed so smoothly."
Ruan Fuxi smiled and replied, "My name is Ruan Fuxi."
Then she took her Star Plate from Xuan Ye's hands, gazing at the dark marks left by lightning, unable to suppress a pang of heartache.
As Ruan Fuxi pondered where to search for materials to repair the Star Plate, she said to Xuan Ye, "I have something else to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now."
Xuan Ye stopped her, saying, "Fuxi, you have helped me during my tribulation. I wish to repay this kindness and fate by staying by your side. Moreover, I am now at the Nascent Soul stage; it is time for me to step into the world."
Ruan Fuxi thought for a moment and felt that having a powerful ally by her side would be beneficial, so she nodded in agreement.
Xuan Ye first returned to the water pool, gathering all the treasures he had hidden away over the years and picking some fine medicinal herbs he had guarded for many years nearby.
Then Xuan Ye shrank his form down to a small size, coiling around Ruan Fuxi's right wrist. To others, it appeared merely as an ancient bracelet of black and gold, without any hint that it was a formidable black serpent at the Nascent Soul stage.
Ruan Fuxi secured the Star Plate and headed back to the production team with Xuan Ye. It had been two or three hours since she left, and A Xun and Yan Zhou must be worried about her by now.
At this moment, the guests had all returned to the base created by Ruan Fuxi, each wearing expressions of concern.
