The morning sunlight spilled onto the bamboo in the Purple Bamboo Forest.
This bamboo forest was quite mystical, remaining mostly unchanged throughout the four seasons.
The bamboo leaves never fell, and the bamboo continued to grow taller and taller.
But they grew very, very slowly.
On the large stone in the center of the bamboo forest, a slender Daoist Nun faced the rock wall and slowly opened her eyes.
Soon after, she began to frown slightly.
This Daoist Seven Elders exuded a deep air of transcendence.
She seed like soone untouched by earthly dust.
Yet at this mont, there was a rare trace of embarrassnt and anger on her face.
The usually reticent Shen Man couldn’t help but silently spit.
"Lecher... lecher!" she exclaid angrily.
The slender Daoist Nun opened her eyes at the sa ti as Chu Huaixu.
However, their experiences were entirely different.
Chu Huaixu felt a sense of survival after a disaster, suddenly sitting up in bed and starting to gasp for air.
Shen Man, on the other hand, was different.
She was indeed intentionally giving the other person a special training.
But in reality, it was also a form of self-cultivation for her.
This Daoist Seven Elder, who had received the Daoist Ancestor Inheritance, spent her nights in monotonous cultivation.
The content of her cultivation was only one thing—wielding her sword!
Although she sat high on a large stone as if confined, seemingly doing nothing, in fact, she spent most of her ti imrsed in her Sword Domain, wielding her sword over and over again!
The only difference now was that every swing of the sword, which previously focused only on understanding the Daoist Ancestor Inheritance, added a new target last night.
Chu Huaixu’s feel was correct.
In front of this extrely powerful sword light, he indeed was incidentally annihilated.
Over three hours, Shen Man actually wielded countless swords.
Chu Huaixu only endured forty strikes because this future master was still sowhat considerate.
After ten strikes, she gave him ti for a breather.
Otherwise, his mind might truly collapse.
Unlike the lawless nature of Chu Yinyin, Shen Man was a person who knew her limits.
And her Sword Domain, in fact, was very magical and defying heaven.
—It possessed an effect similar to insight into the human heart!
If engaged in a fight, unless the opponent’s overall strength greatly surpassed hers, causing a crushing defeat, she could predict the opponent’s next move, understand all actions, and even know what he thought!
With Chu Huaixu’s cultivation, all his thoughts seed "completely exposed" before Shen Man.
However, during the year of seclusion, she got used to constantly wielding her sword within the Sword Domain, in a fully imrsive state.
It was only when she stopped would she review and digest to absorb everything that happened during those three hours.
Originally, today should have been the sa as always.
However, right after opening her eyes, there seed to be so... dirty things in her mind?
Every thought of Chu Huaixu’s was completely perceived by her at this mont without any omission!
Included in them was his thought after being killed the first ti, mistakenly believing he was dreaming, arising a desire to be "unrestrained."
And after being killed several tis, a sense of revenge arose, wanting to stuff this dead woman before him into his mouth, never ceasing to call her "daddy."
Fortunately, later on, he was too exhausted, his mind beca chaotic, and he spent most of his ti in a daze.
This seemingly ethereal, slender Daoist Nun bore an uncommon trace of anger on her face, raising her eyes to look at the morning sky, watching clouds billow and disperse.
As ntioned before, Shen Man never once considered taking on any disciple.
It was just that the Sect Leader and others said only she could teach Chu Huaixu, and she needed to teach him, so she accepted this future disciple.
But now, she felt a bit of regret.
This disciple, she sowhat didn’t want anymore.
...
...
Daoist Sect, dicine Mountain.
Outside a bamboo house, a family of three sat at a table dining.
Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing were both secretly observing the Black Gold Robe on Chu Huaixu.
They could tell it was a Spiritual Artifact but didn’t know where he got it from.
Apart from that, the robe indeed looked sowhat impressive on him.
However, they felt a bit puzzled.
"Why does he seem so listless today?"
Strangely, he appeared particularly vibrant, with seemingly no physical issues.
Yet, he gave the impression of being dejected, almost no light in his eyes.
At this mont, Chu Huaixu was indeed a bit numb.
Before, he was purely a glutton, his appetite so large that even Xiaoxu, also a glutton, would initially eat slowly, worrying his senior brother wouldn’t have enough to eat.
But his eating today appeared sowhat chanical.
Towards the end, Chu Huaixu, not knowing who he was competing with, suddenly exuded a trace of ruthlessness and began to devour his food!
After eating, he forcefully placed the bowl on the table.
Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing exchanged glances as they looked at his back heading back to the house.
"Senior Sister Han, what’s wrong with Senior Brother?" The delicate young man was utterly baffled.
The Big Ice Cube slightly frowned, pondering for a mont before guessing: "Could it be that the pressure of alchemy is a bit much?"
Currently, Chu Huaixu was practically the only one "working" among the family of three.
This caused the two "idle wanderers" to even start feeling a brief sense of self-reproach.
Back in the bedroom, Chu Huaixu sat on a futon and opened his skill interface.
Last night, he obtained two Magic Technique Jade Scrolls but hadn’t had a chance to study them before passing out drunk.
Now that he had plenty of experience points, he planned to learn these two techniques.
"Nearly ninety thousand experience points, actually, just another ten thousand would be enough to get started on [Six Out of Seven]." he thought to himself.
But Chu Huaixu, after struggling for a while, still decided not to learn it.
His experience points are not abundant right now, so he shouldn’t be so extravagant.
"If it’s just to begin [Six Out of Seven], then it would be better to level up that True Gang Technique a few levels!"
"The power would definitely be stronger than a beginner’s [Six Out of Seven]!" Chu Huaixu felt this was more cost-effective.
At the sa level, Earth Level Techniques definitely crush Profound Level ones in power.
But the problem is that it costs too many experience points, and even if Chu Huaixu begins, he won’t be able to level up further.
For normal people, even learning a Profound Level Technique in the First Realm is a luxury!
But Chu Huaixu now plans to level up both techniques, and not just by one level!
"A body technique called [Form of a Crane]?" he froze for a mont.
Because he suddenly rembered that line: Practicing to have a form like a crane’s shape, under a thousand pine trees with two scriptures.
"What kind of Profound Yellow Realm’s Jia Jing is this!" Chu Huaixu was stunned.
He suddenly thought of the emperor Jia Jing’s three dreadfully long Daoist titles.
Among them, the shortest title was: Lingxiao Shangqing Thunder Master Primordial Yang Miaoyi Feixuan True Monarch.
The other two were even dozens of characters long.
"Speaking of which, Jia Jing also loved alchemy..." The more Chu Huaixu thought about it, the more speechless he felt.
He personally wasn’t particularly fond of the na [Form of a Crane].
The image of the crane as an animal isn’t bad, but in many novels, nas with the character for crane usually don’t belong to anything good.
Fortunately, in the Skill List, he could modify the technique’s na himself, so he decided to go with the flow and picked two characters from Jia Jing’s Daoist title—[Feixuan].
As for the other True Gang Technique, its na was of a different style.
It was also three characters long, called [Fingertip Thunder].
It was sowhat reminiscent of Eastern Evil Huang Yaoshi’s famous skill—Finger-Pointing Divine Techniques.
A re flick of the finger possesses imnse power!
Due to the incredibly fast projectile speed of the True Gang, combined with its extrely dominant power, it was nad [Fingertip Thunder].
However, this technique has one requirent, which is that the True Gang must have sothing to attach to.
"At the beginner’s level, the attachnt must be sothing hard, like a stone. The True Gang attaches to the stone and is then flicked out."
"Once the technique is proficiently practiced, the requirent for the attachnt diminishes; even flying flowers and plucking leaves can harm soone."
Chu Huaixu first spent more than seventeen thousand experience points to get both Profound Level Techniques to the beginner’s level.
Then, after hesitating for a while, he spent another forty-two thousand experience points to level them both up to Level 2, progressing from beginner to minor success.
Just like that, sixty thousand experience points were gone, and he felt quite the heartache.
But with [Feixuan] and [Fingertip Thunder], his overall combat power definitely surged.
After doing all this, Chu Huaixu was invigorated and decided to go out and show off.
He no longer looked as listless as before.
Outside the bamboo house, Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing watched as he returned and felt sowhat baffled.
Today’s Chu Huaixu seed sowhat fiery and determined.
Under their gaze, he casually picked up a fallen sycamore leaf.
Then, he demonstrated [Fingertip Thunder].
Only to see the leaf shoot out, wrapped in True Gang, at astonishing speed!
It quickly struck a large stone in the distance, producing a thunderous sound, and the stone instantly shattered, exceptionally domineering!
Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing were both shocked by the scene.
Such thunderous ans!
Under the two astonished gazes, Chu Huaixu decided to stop, tucking his fingers into the wide sleeves of his black gold robe, and turned back towards the house.
After taking a step forward, he suddenly transford into an afterimage!
In an instant, he disappeared from outside the house and returned to his bedroom.
Leaving Big Ice Cube and Xiaoxu staring at each other, their eyes filled with increasing amazent.
"When did he learn True Gang and body techniques?" Han Shuangjiang exclaid in surprise.
At this mont, she felt even more pressured, feeling the gap between her and the dead fox was widening.
In the days to co, I must push myself relentlessly!
...
...
Night gradually deepened.
Chu Huaixu lay flat on his bed.
He sowhat didn’t want to close his eyes, not wanting to face what was to co.
He never thought that his cultivation path would be so difficult.
"Before, it was just physical tornt, now there’s also ntal tornt."
"The mont you close your eyes, you’re in for it!"
Just half an hour ago, he even had the thought of trying to glitch the system.
"The task is to survive these 30 days."
"So I just won’t sleep at night!"
He wasn’t sure if this would count towards the days, but he was tempted.
Unfortunately, the lure of understanding Sword Intent was too great.
Although he hadn’t found the way yet and didn’t know how to raise his rating, he thought glitching the system wouldn’t work.
Chu Huaixu sighed, checked the ti, and found it was about the sa as yesterday.
After closing his eyes, the burden on his mind kept him from sleeping.
However, after about the ti it takes for an incense stick to burn, he found himself not asleep yet still entering that blank space.
Before his eyes, there was still a dense mist.
In the fog, stood that slim Daoist nun with a longsword, her face indistinguishable.
