Borrowed Sword Chapter 200 : Planting the Soul Seed, Entering the Spirit Re

Chapter 200: Planting the Soul Seed, Entering the Spirit Realm

A group of three soon arrived at the entrance to the Origin Spirit Realm.

According to Jiang Zhi and the others, the entrance to the Origin Spirit Realm changed location each ti—it wasn’t fixed.

However, those who had digested the [Fragnt of Xuanhuang Origin] could locate it in advance.

At this thought, Chu Huaixu grew increasingly certain that the rank of his System was extrely high.

Because his Mission System had also provided a precise [Location] on the map.

When the three landed near the entrance, many were already waiting below.

The Heir of Prince Rui, Qin Xuanxiao, and his future consort were both present.

Eunuch Li and a Sixth Realm offering stood behind them.

Additionally, the other three major sects of the Eastern Continent had also sent people—familiar faces.

They were none other than Situ Cheng and the others who had co to watch the Eastern Continent Grand Competition.

Such a grand scene didn’t surprise Chu Huaixu too much.

"After all, the Origin Spirit Realm is tied to the Heaven-and-Earth Calamity, which concerns the fate of the entire Xuanhuang Realm."

"If these forces didn’t send people, that would be strange," he thought it made perfect sense.

However, the larger the gathering, the more fired up he beca.

After all, none of these important figures could enter, so everything depended on him, a re First Realm cultivator.

As soon as Chu Huaixu appeared, he beca the center of attention, and everyone stepped forward to surround him.

After brief greetings, Jiang Zhi glanced lightly at Qin Xuanxiao and said,

"Kid, why don’t you speak on behalf of the Moon Country’s royal family."

In front of these major cultivators, the Heir of Prince Rui seed calm, courteous, and cultured.

He imdiately stepped forward and said, "In the face of the Heaven-and-Earth Calamity, our Eastern and Western Continents stand as one and share a common enemy."

"If Brother Chu successfully resolves the crisis within, the Moon Country royal family will likewise bestow rewards."

"As per tradition, one may choose between refinent in the Imperial Pool or entry into the Imperial Mausoleum."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhi sneered in front of the Moon Country crowd.

"Heh, still the sa two choices, huh."

"They may appear to be the highest-grade rewards from your Moon Country, but in truth, only those from your country gain the greatest benefits within."

"Things like your dynasty’s fate and Emperor-level Divine Sense have nothing to do with us Mirror Country folks of the Eastern Continent."

He was openly mocking the Moon Country for being stingy.

Outwardly placing the best rewards before you, but in reality, only offering scraps—all just for show.

Qin Xuanxiao and Chu Huaixu exchanged a glance upon hearing this.

The Heir of Prince Rui had grievances he couldn’t voice: “But that Huo Dingyi is a Moon Country native!”

From the bottom of his heart, he didn’t want that traitor to enter the sacred Imperial Pool or Mausoleum!

He was filthy! How could the tainted body of a traitor be worthy of entering!?

But the twist—no one had known in advance that the Eastern Continent Champion was from the Moon Country. Least of all did they expect Huo Dingyi to betray the Organization.

In such a situation, Qin Xuanxiao had to endure Jiang Zhi’s ridicule face-to-face, undoubtedly leaving him bitter.

Those behind him, including Eunuch Li, also changed expressions.

But now they were on soone else's turf, outnumbered and outmatched. None dared lose their temper and could only let Jiang Zhi mock them.

Chu Huaixu, however, silently kept this conversation in mind.

"Refinent in the Imperial Pool, or entry into the Imperial Mausoleum, huh?"

"In 'Borrowed Sword', these were indeed imnse fortunes and opportunities for players born in the Moon Country!"

"But as Jiang Zhi said, they were rather tasteless for players from the Eastern Continent."

"Not entirely useless, but not all that great either."

"The real issue is..."

"This guy's body is from the Moon Country, but his spirit belongs to the Mirror Country!" Chu Huaixu thought.

Now this was getting interesting.

For so reason, he was starting to look forward to it.

And then, another point.

"This old geezer Jiang Zhi—he’s best used outwardly."

"Internally, he can be quite annoying."

"But watching him trash the Moon Country folks so brazenly was actually satisfying," Chu Huaixu mused.

......

......

At midnight, the entrance to the Origin Spirit Realm would open.

It was still early.

But no one was idle.

Qin Xuanxiao brought Lin Zixuan here, intending for Chu Huaixu to plant the Soul Seed within her.

Doing so would boost their chances of success.

After he said this, the Eastern Continent cultivators all cast appreciative glances at him.

They had all once been young and knew many youths were egotistical and narrow-minded.

Now, Chu Huaixu and Lin Zixuan sat facing each other, hiding an unfinished Spiritual Tangerine.

The petite girl with a full chest looked at him and said, "Chu Huaixu, I need a wisp of your spiritual energy, a strand of your divine sense, and a drop of your blood."

"Even blood?" Chu Huaixu was puzzled. It felt strange.

"Yes. To be precise, the Soul Seed uses blood as its carrier," Lin Zixuan answered seriously.

"Alright." Chu Huaixu responded and began to act.

With Jiang Zhi and Chu Yinyin watching from the side, he wasn’t worried about the Moon Country protagonists pulling any tricks.

In fact, Chu Huaixu didn't place much trust in Qin Xuanxiao.

Being a World Protagonist didn’t guarantee he only did righteous things.

"'Borrowed Sword' beca popular precisely because the characters had distinct personalities."

"Qin Xuanxiao being labeled a scher by players showed he was the most controversial of the four main characters."

"From a macro perspective, his actions did benefit the greater good."

"But the question is—are you part of that greater good, or are you a pawn outside of it?"

A drop of blood was extracted, and Chu Huaixu infused it with spiritual energy and divine sense.

Lin Zixuan ford hand seals and began casting.

One spell after another landed on the blood, causing it to emit a faint red glow.

Next, the girl parted her cherry lips and swallowed the drop of blood.

But she didn’t imdiately swallow. Instead, she held it in her mouth, brows slightly furrowed—perhaps it tasted awful.

Like holding a pill, she digested its power.

Once the blood was fully refined, it beca a warm current flowing through her body.

Eventually, it converged in her Spirit Embryo Secret Store, leaving a mark.

Thus, the Soul Seed was planted.

In the next mont, Chu Huaixu felt his world shift.

Once Lin Zixuan opened her beautiful eyes, he could share all of her vision!

Spiritual energy began to grow within him.

An attribute-less spiritual energy appeared in his Spirit Embryo Secret Store and rged with the power of the Dao Canon, known for its balance and harmony.

In his Sea of Consciousness, his divine sense also grew stronger!

"Can you hear ?" the petite girl’s voice suddenly rang out.

"You can transmit sound?" Chu Huaixu asked in his mind.

"Yes, it acts similarly to sound transmission," Lin Zixuan replied.

Sound transmission was a divine ability only accessible in the Third Realm.

As expected of a god-tier support. Interesting.

Chu Huaixu felt stronger than ever.

He didn’t know what cultivation thod Lin Zixuan practiced.

Her spiritual energy was not only attribute-less but could also combine with many types, and the total volu seed imnse.

Could this girl be [Spirit Gathering 10]?

This mysterious feeling didn’t last long.

Lin Zixuan soon withdrew her ability.

"I can only maintain it for one incense stick’s ti. I’ll use my secret art again just before you enter the Origin Spirit Realm," she explained.

"Also, I’ll cancel the shared vision—since I can't enter, I don't want to distract you."

"Understood," Chu Huaixu nodded calmly.

Then he asked, "Besides this, does planting the Soul Seed have any other effects?"

Lin Zixuan nodded but said, "Only so negligible ones."

"For example, if you die, I can sense it imdiately." But she kept that thought to herself, not wanting to jinx anything.

Naturally, the girl didn’t want any harm to co to Chu Huaixu. She hoped that this well-deserved Xuanhuang Champion could accomplish the heroic feat of saving the world.

Ti ticked by. Night deepened.

Chu Huaixu sat in ditation.

Though he seed to be adjusting his state, he was actually making final preparations.

"I have just over six hundred thousand Experience Points left."

"No more hesitation!"

"All in!"

Chu Huaixu spent nearly all of it, thinking it was only right to show so respect to those old cultivators in Kunlun Grotto-Heaven.

Ti approached midnight.

The Dao Gate high-ups were all gathered in the grand hall. Thoughtfully, they had brought Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing here.

On Sect Master Xiang Yan’s desk lay a [Life Token].

It was Chu Huaixu’s token, refined by Li Chunsong when he first joined the sect.

If he died, the token would shatter!

If it remained intact when the ti ca, it ant he had cleared the first layer of the Origin Spirit Realm and accomplished a world-saving feat!

"Stupid Fox, you better co back safe," Han Shuangjiang thought.

For once, the girl didn’t immaturely call him Dead Fox in her heart.

Xu Ziqing sat clenching his fists, "Senior Brother, you must not co to harm."

He only regretted that he couldn’t be the one to enter the Origin Spirit Realm!

Midnight arrived!

Chu Huaixu suddenly felt the space before him shatter!

A vortex-like portal appeared.

Jiang Zhi and Chu Yinyin wanted to give so final instructions.

But just as he opened his mouth, the black-robed young man standing at the entrance had already stepped inside without hesitation, completely calm.

"Blah blah blah, what are you even saying?" Chu Huaixu didn’t bother listening.

"Start killing!"
