This Life's Song: The Genius Rune Master

Lianxue looked at the adorable little white kitten in front of her and couldn't help but reach out and hug it tightly.

Kuroba was hugged, his face showing a big look of confusion. He scolded, "What are you doing? Let go."

Lianxue touched the fluffy texture in her hands, cupped it to her cheek, and gently touched it. It was so soft and cute, "So adorable."

He held the black feather up to his eyes, looked at it, and asked, "You're a white cat, so why is your name Black Feather so strange?"

Hei Yu, lifted up, kicked and struggled with all four legs, trying to break free. "You little brat, let me go, or I'll scratch you!"

Lianxue completely ignored Heiyu's threat, hugged him again, and began to rub him, "It's so nice, it can also be used to keep warm."

Unable to bear it any longer, Hei Yu stretched out his sharp claws and grabbed at Lian Xue's hand.

Three bloody marks were visible on Lianxue's hand.

"Ouch~" Lian Xue winced in pain, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she said, "It seems your claws are too sharp. I need to trim them."

After saying that, he waved his hand and a dagger appeared in his hand. He then clamped his legs around Black Feather's lower back, grabbed its claws, and began trimming its nails.

Kuroba's fur stood on end, completely bristling. "No! Help!"

Lianxue ignored Heiyu's shouts and continued her attack—no, she used her knife.

Kuroba, quick-witted, cried out, "Boss, oh no, Master, please spare us..."

Seeing Hei Yu's strong resistance to having her nails trimmed, Lian Xue reluctantly stopped, the dagger disappeared, and she said, "Since you don't want to trim them, then forget it. You can stay with me until we leave this place."

Black Feather's head hung low, his fur plastered to his body, giving him a defeated look. "Fine!"

Looking at the pure white snow, Lianxue wondered where she was and why she had encountered all this. She thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

Black Feather licked his paws and said, "You're just daydreaming. You'd be lucky to figure out the reason if you hadn't even been exposed to the area."

Lian Xue found Hei Yu's words strange. "Do you know what I'm thinking?"

Black Feather switched to another paw and continued licking. "Hmph, it's just a matter of what's going on here. If I wanted to, there's nothing I wouldn't know."

Lianxue thought Heiyu was really amazing, her expression softened, and she smiled sweetly, "Then tell me where this is."

Black Feather leaped out of Lianxue's hand and landed on the snow. Its footsteps made a constant crunching sound, almost blending into the snow itself.

Hei Yu shook off the snow from his body and said slowly, "Of course this is inside the formation, otherwise why would every place look different?"

Lian Xue looked around. An array? Such a profound array, it's not surprising that she couldn't discover it, at least she wasn't powerful enough to recognize many arrays.

Lianxue really wanted to get out now, so she asked, "Can we get out from here?"

Hei Yu wanted to leave immediately, but he had no choice but to say, "Sure, I'll leave as long as you put me into the Phoenix Bracelet."

Hearing Hei Yu's words, Lian Xue grabbed it again, glaring at it, "You left, but what about me? You can't do this to me."

Seeing that his thoughts had been seen through, Kuroba said helplessly, "I'm not a universal key, I can't help it." After saying that, he spread his hands and made a human-like gesture.

As the two were talking, a white object seemed to be moving in the snow. Surprisingly, it didn't make any sound as it stepped on the snow.

In this vast expanse of white, would you notice a silent white object moving about?

Lianxue inadvertently spotted a white snowdrift, but upon closer inspection, it didn't seem particularly special, so she didn't pay it any mind.

The people in front of the stone tablet watched as the two people who had broken away from the red dot were on the left and right lines, respectively.

The person on the left is locked in a fierce battle with three red dots.

The right side was quiet and remained in one spot, but several white dots appeared around it. No one knew why they were white dots.

People taking the illusion test gradually emerged, and soon only a few remained.

At this moment, in the capital of Fengxiao Kingdom, within the Qingcang Sect, a selection sect, before everyone stood a towering mountain wall with vortexes appearing on it. Those to be tested stepped into the vortexes to begin their tests.

The tests were largely the same, all involving illusions. Now it was Leng Yaoye's turn to be tested.

He stepped into the vortex, darkness replaced light, his mind was in chaos, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself on a small bed, his body injured.

Suddenly the door opened, and a young woman walked to the bedside. "My poor child, are you awake? Let your mother see you."

Lying on the bed was a four-year-old boy with delicate features and long eyelashes. He opened his eyes when he heard the sound and looked at the other person.

Leng Yaoye looked at the woman in front of him. This woman was not his mother in reality. This place was all an illusion, made up of an array. Strangely, other people's memories were temporarily cleared when they entered the array, but why didn't he? Moreover, he still had the memories of the characters in the illusion.

Despite his doubts, he didn't show them on his face. Looking at his tiny self, he knew he had to complete the illusionary mission before he could leave.

As for why I remember it, I won't think about that for now; breaking the formation is the key.

If one understands the formation, one can forcibly break it, but if one does that, there is no point in testing it.

Seeing that the child did not answer, the woman asked again, "How are you, child? Are you feeling better?" She reached out and touched Leng Yaoye's forehead.

Leng Yaoye still felt some resistance towards this stranger. He turned his head away and subtly avoided the person, saying, "It's okay, I'm fine now."

The woman looked at him with doting eyes, "Yaoye, today is your grandmother's birthday. Everyone has gone. If you're feeling better, would you like to change your clothes and come with your mother?"

Leng Yaoye was amazed. This illusion array was so realistic. It made sense, since this was a world built on spiritual power, where senses such as touch were amplified infinitely. He just wondered who had set up this array.

I casually replied, "Okay!"

Lianxue took out some food to replenish her strength, and Heiyu didn't stand on ceremony, eating most of the fish in Lianxue's storage bag.

Lianxue felt a pang of heartache and said helplessly, "You should be more frugal. We don't know when we'll be able to leave. If we eat it all, where will we find more?"

Kuroba ate the fish and mumbled, "It's okay, I can go half a month without eating." After saying that, he swallowed the whole fish and let out a satisfied burp.

Lianxue sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. "You can go for half a month without food, but what about me?"

Kuroba then said somewhat apologetically, "Oh dear! How could I forget about that? Well then, I won't eat any more. You can have the remaining three."

Lianxue was so angry she laughed. "Fine, if we can get out, I'll find you more food."

Just as Lianxue finished speaking and turned around, she saw that the snowdrift was even closer to her. What was going on? The snow had piled up so high in such a short time?

But that doesn't make sense, there can't be so much snow in just one spot!

Lian Xue looked down and then looked up again. The snowdrift had already reached her feet. Seeing this, Lian Xue's scalp tingled. She was also standing on a snowdrift with a slope below. A bit of blue stone was visible at the bottom of the slope, so she chose to rest there.

But where did this snowdrift come from? What is it? Her thoughts raced as Lian Xue threw out her dagger.
