The fierce wind from the palm attack roared forward.
Xu Ziqing’s palm move[Eight Desolates Roaming Dragon]was extrely precise, embodying its essence completely.
Chu Huaixu watched from the side, his gaze slightly sharpening.
He wasn’t too surprised, but rather gritted his teeth a little.
"Damn it! Really damn it!"
He seriously suspected that Xu Ziqing’s Character Panel was: although[Pseudo Spiritual Embryo], he possessed[Comprehension 10].
This is a Cultivation World, not a Martial World, so there is no True Qi. Mortal Martial Arts is just about learning a technique. But rely looking at it a few tis and having mastered it...
With this thought, he again thought to himself, "Damn it, really damn it!"
"Should I charge him ten taels for tuition?"
After drawing back his hand, Xu Ziqing glanced at Chu Huaixu out of the corner of his eye.
The young man, harboring a bit of caution, intended to show off.
But in return, all he got was an ambivalent "Mm, not bad."
Han Shuangjiang stood nearby and noticed them, feeling a bit surprised inside.
However, the cold-faced girl always kept her emotions hidden, maintaining a stern look, so it was hard to tell.
This made Xu Ziqing feel quite disappointed.
"Sure enough, I’m nothing in front of real cultivators."
"You’re just a quick learner of Mortal Martial Arts, unlike them mastering a Technique in an instant. What’s so special about that?"
Xu Ziqing felt troubled, unsure of how he could get a chance to practice cultivation.
Carrying a deep-seated grudge, his mind was in turmoil, wanting to display his strengths more.
He even considered rashly reaching out randomly for a solution.
Chu Huaixu could actually guess what he was thinking.
But now was not the ti.
He himself was just a Registered Disciple and had no authority to teach Cultivation Techniques to others, which would violate the Sect’s major rules!
"I just wonder if Old Niu can facilitate sothing?" he thought.
At this mont, Chu Huaixu felt quite lancholic.
If not for a fortunate coincidence allowing him to take Xu Ziqing’s mountain quota, he would either have to seek a new path or, as per the original arrangent, serve as a servant undercover in the Outer Sect.
"If that were the case, I’d probably also scramble to showcase my abilities, hoping to earn a chance to cultivate."
Looking at this world’s protagonist, he thought again.
"He, like my forr self, is also a Pseudo Spiritual Embryo."
"Moreover, according to the original storyline, he would draw that sword."
"So, could it be possible that the[Refining Sword Formulas]which matches well with is also just right for him?"
Chu Huaixu started to let his mind wander wildly, but the more he thought, the more it seed feasible.
—Better shared pain than alone.
The clear-skinned servant, feeling extrely low, was unaware of any of this.
"Perhaps I should just go clean the latrine," he thought.
...
...
The sun was about to set.
Although there was an additional servant at ho, al preparation was still handled by Han Shuangjiang.
The reason was simple: Xu Ziqing only had rudintary cooking skills, and the food he made was difficult to eat, plus he had no talent for it.
The good news was the dishes no longer needed to be washed by her; the servant took care of it.
This situation perfectly fit Chu Huaixu’s criteria for accepting a follower: stick with , and if there’s a al for , there’s a bowl for you to wash.
Xu Ziqing’s bedroom was naturally arranged in Chu Huaixu’s bamboo house.
The bamboo house had one large and one small room.
Don’t be fooled by the decent living conditions of the Registered Disciples, but rember, starting next month, they needed to pay rent to the Sect...
That night, Chu Huaixu did not practice[Refining Sword Formulas].
Having recently advanced three levels in a row, he was still haunted by shadows and didn’t want to invite trouble in the middle of the night.
But there weren’t any entertainnt activities either, making him feel sowhat bored.
"No wonder cultivation emphasizes wealth, thod, companionship, and location."
"If I had a companion, maybe it wouldn’t feel so lonely."
With nothing else to do, Chu Huaixu, based on his experience as a player, began making plans.
But he was still in the Acupoint Opening Stage; his options were limited.
"I must reach the First Realm sooner."
The night deepened, and Chu Huaixu removed his robe, habitually sleeping naked.
At midnight, he suddenly opened his eyes on the bed, looking at the Storage Token placed with his clothes.
An indescribable mysterious aura spread from it.
Chu Huaixu, naked, got out of bed, picked up the Token, and took sothing out from inside.
A piece of the Pill King Token Fragnt, as lustrous as mutton fat jade, lay in his palm.
At this mont, it emitted a very faint glow.
"The Secret Realm is about to open?" Chu Huaixu’s pupils contracted slightly, and his heartbeat began to accelerate.
He put on his robe and pushed the door open.
At the sa ti, Han Shuangjiang from the neighboring bamboo house also ca out, holding a fragnt of the Pill King Token in her hand.
"Just right, I was going to find you to confirm sothing." Chu Huaixu said to her.
"It seems very likely that this Secret Realm has indeed opened!" He smiled slightly.
Han Shuangjiang nodded slightly, glanced at the jade token fragnt in her palm, feeling a mix of excitent and nervousness.
"So should we head to that Cold Pool now?" she asked.
"Didn’t expect you to be so impatient?" Chu Huaixu laughed.
Hearing this, Han Shuangjiang pursed her lips and didn’t speak further, afraid of being laughed at again.
"No need to rush, we need to prepare. Who knows how many days we’ll be in the Secret Realm." said the experienced playing companion.
In the past, many wealthy madams loved to book him for dungeons because he was strong and could carry them, and the atmosphere was good when alone with a woman.
It’s kind of like teaming up to play a Cultivation World version of an escape room?
"Didn’t Steward Niu say we must gather all the Pill King Tokens for the Secret Realm to open?"
"So we don’t need to hurry. Without the two of us, they can’t enter anyway." Chu Huaixu waved his hand.
Saying this, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Moreover, those guys with the surna Liu are probably going to have a little eting to discuss how to act in the Secret Realm."
...
...
dicine Mountain, Liu Family.
Liu Chengqi was still awake because he had just finished his tasks.
A soft, fragrant body was lying in his arms, the woman’s jade-like feet lightly tracing circles on his calf.
"Senior Brother Liu, you’re amazing." The woman breathed softly, lightly rubbing against his neck, her voice soft and gentle.
"Is that so? Junior Sister Chen, is it that’s amazing, or is ’he’ amazing?" Liu Chengqi asked, his hand tracing down her spine, probing to the raised curve.
One must say, the tastes of this Cao The Thief were consistent; he loved this kind of setting.
"Of course you are amazing! How could he compare to you! Tonight, you are stronger than any previous ti, like... like..."
"Like what?" Liu Chengqi squeezed her raised bottom, his tone filled with pride and anticipation.
"Like you’ve taken an elixir."
When he heard Junior Sister Chen’s words, Liu Chengqi’s big hand suddenly stiffened, and his expression darkened.
Because he had indeed taken an elixir.
At that mont, he suddenly felt sothing was not right.
Eventually, his gaze fell onto his Storage Token.
Liu Chengqi quickly got up and took out that piece of jade token fragnt from inside.
Looking at the mysterious glow, his eyes were filled with boundless joy, and he couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
"Finally! The Secret Realm is finally open! Hahaha!"
He had been waiting for this day for a long ti.
He just didn’t expect Chu Huaixu and Han Shuangjiang to be so lucky. The mont they obtained the Pill King Token, the Secret Realm opened.
"If it had been a few days earlier, they wouldn’t even have the chance to enter!" Liu Chengqi’s eyes were filled with a sinister gloom.
This kind of opportunity, he really didn’t want to share with others, but he was helpless.
The woman lying on the bed got up imdiately and said with a radiant smile, "Congratulations, Senior Brother Liu!"
Clearly, she also knew about the Secret Realm.
The reason was very simple, this female disciple at the peak of the Acupoint Opening Stage was one of the nine individuals carefully selected by Steward Liu to accompany his beloved son into the Secret Realm, where they would distribute the token fragnts.
However, since two fragnts had been given to others, they would no longer need nine guardians, and could only send seven people down.
"Wait here... Forget it, you go back first. I need to report this to my father." Liu Chengqi began to send her away.
Usually, after taking dicine, he wouldn’t let his junior sister leave right away, but would wait until he was satisfied.
But now, business was urgent.
Anyway, she was a bit loose.
"I am naturally blessed with a Blazing Fire Spiritual Embryo, of the Upper Grade!"
"As long as I recover, the path to supre enlightennt awaits !"
"What can that Chu Huaixu do now that he has the Sixth Elder supporting him? As long as I can enter the Inner Sect, my cultivation will soar, and perhaps I can beco an Elder Disciple! Even take the Sect Leader as my master!"
"As for Han Shuangjiang... " Liu Chengqi, who hadn’t yet worn off the effects of the dicine, licked his lips.
Now, it just depended on whether the Secret Realm contained what he wanted.
Liu Chengqi imdiately set off to find Liu Tianfeng.
However, Liu Tianfeng was not at ho.
In his Storage Token, there were still 7 fragnts, and he had long noticed sothing was amiss.
At this mont, the old man was standing by the Cold Pool.
The chill at the pond’s bottom was such that, even with his cultivation, he could not withstand it for long.
Right then, Liu Tianfeng probed downwards with his Divine Sense and imdiately detected sothing.
"The cold air has indeed almost dissipated."
"No, it has been completely absorbed!"
