I'm only one year old, what the hell is the counterattack system?

Chen Yi returned to his house and sat on the bed, closing his eyes to rest.

He was not practicing cultivation, nor was he pondering the past or future; he simply emptied his mind and sat calmly on the bed.

The house, built of logs, was not spacious, only about two zhang square. It was not very well renovated, as it was built on the spot using the timber that had just been cleared, and the fragrance of the timber still lingered on it.

Faintly, shimmering talismanic marks appeared on it, reflecting Chen Yi's ever-changing light and shadow.

Looking back, he realized he hadn't rested, or rather, slept, for a very long time.

How long?

From the time he left the Taixu Dao Sect to travel, he was either on the move, cultivating, or fighting.

Without stopping for a moment.

This situation lasted for almost a year.

Only today has he come to this battlefield from the Tianyuan Continent, crossed the Nether River, and stood at the foot of Mount Taizhou.

We are about to climb that majestic mountain that stretches as far as the eye can see.

Therefore, Chen Yi was able to relax and rest for a while, which was a rare treat.

The small jade sword on his wrist seemed to sense his state, and gently shook it twice without making a sound. It quietly detached from his body and hovered around the house.

They cheered silently, as if entertaining themselves.

"Waaah...dududu...dadada..."

The little jade sword, like a fairy, gracefully stretched and changed its shape, as if dancing.

However, as she danced, she was also muttering to herself.

"When is Yi-ge'er planning to give me a new body? That bastard Chunyu is starting to get sentient."

"Hmph, but even if it develops intelligence, it will still have to obey my orders, or I will... I will cut it down."

As Xiaoyujian spoke, she came to the Spring Rain Sword that was placed on Chen Yi's lap and gently poked it with the tip of her sword, making a soft tinkling sound.

Spring Rain Sword remained motionless, seemingly unaffected.

Chen Yi ignored him as well, keeping his eyes closed and his mind clear in an effort to restore his body and mind to their best state.

However, Xiao Qing, who was sleeping soundly in its wrist, woke up when it heard the sound. It blinked its tiny eyes, looked at the small jade sword on the side, then looked at Chen Yi, and then stretched its body to break free from Chen Yi's wrist and took flight.

Upon seeing its appearance, the little jade sword immediately dropped the Spring Rain Sword and circled around it as if playing.

"Little Qing, Little Qing..."

"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu..."

I'm quite familiar with the dragon and the sword.

Most of the time, the little green dragon is sound asleep, absorbing and devouring rare and precious natural treasures or demon blood cores. When it occasionally wakes up, it is to fight alongside Chen Yi. It rarely plays and relaxes like it did today.

Little Jade Sword is usually quite active, but because she is often reminded not to show herself in public, she is afraid of being noticed.

Then the effect of her trump card will be reduced.

Since Chen Yi said so, Xiao Yujian had no choice but to obey, even if she was unwilling.

During this time, she has seen this wonderful world by following Chen Yi.

The Ten Thousand Mountains, the battlefield of Tai Zhou Mountain, the Nether River, and now we are about to head to the Tai Zhou Mountain domain—it's all incredibly exciting.

It was definitely more interesting than when she followed Xia Wanwan before.

After playing for a while, Little Azure Dragon looked at Chen Yi, whose face was calm and whose breathing was steady, and asked in confusion, "Is Brother Yi sleeping?"

The little jade sword tapped its tip. "It should be...it's quite rare."

"Oh, Ryu has been sleeping the whole time and hasn't noticed any of this."

"You lazy dragon, always sleeping, sleeping, sleeping, oh dear..."

"The dragon doesn't want to grow up either. To grow up quickly, it has to rely on sleep to grow. Fortunately, with Yi-ge'er's help, it grows up much faster than it did in the dragon farm before."

"Longchang? What kind of place is that?"

"Dragon Field is Dragon Field. The clan elder is there, and he has been taking care of the dragon as it grew up. It's a pity that it's too old to move. Otherwise, it would definitely have left there with the dragon this time."

The little green dragon's voice was somewhat downcast, but only for a moment, before it perked up again and said:
"When the dragon grows bigger and becomes as powerful as its father, the dragon will go back to rescue it."

Little Jade Sword seemed to understand but not quite, and said "Oh," then added, "Then I wish you grow up quickly so you can go to Dragon Field."

Little Azure Dragon chuckled and nodded, then glanced at Chen Yi's hand, its eyes darting around twice before gesturing for silence towards the little jade sword. Then it quietly slipped into the Sumeru bag.

After a few breaths, it emerged, dragging out three millstone-sized blood cores from its tiny paws.

It was none other than the blood core of a great demon king who had reached the fifth level of supernatural powers.

"Fine, I'm going to tell Yi-ge'er that you stole his blood core again."

“How can this be considered stealing? Yi-ge’er’s things belong to Long, and Long’s things also belong to Yi-ge’er.”

Little Jade Sword hummed and asked, "Then tell me, what do you have?"

After swallowing the blood core from its claw in three gulps, the little azure dragon thought for a moment, then shook its head and said:
"Long doesn't have much, but if he does in the future, it will definitely belong to Yi-ge'er." "Then you're stealing!"

"No, it's not a dragon!"

"You are!"

"dragon……"

The two little creatures continued to fly and circle around, even though they were consciously not using their own strength. The wind they generated while flying still made the house sway precariously.

Chen Yi opened his eyes as if sensing something, and couldn't help but chuckle when he saw what was happening. He flicked his fingers twice, forcibly separating the dragon and the sword.

"You two better behave yourselves, or the array formations and talismans inside the house will collapse."

"Yi-ge'er, let me tell you, Long has stolen blood cores again."

The little green dragon hadn't learned to lie yet. After glaring at the little jade sword, it grinned and said, "Hehehe... the dragon ate three this time..."

Chen Yi beckoned it back to his wrist, then gestured for the little jade sword to shut up.

"It's just a few blood cores, so let's just eat them."

Little Jade Sword, who was about to mutter some more, had no choice but to reluctantly return to his other wrist, the hilt resting on the red rope, swinging back and forth.

Chen Yi glanced at his left and right hands, smiled, and decided not to say anything more.

He got up and looked out the window. He saw that dark clouds were already appearing in the mountains, and it seemed that it was going to rain soon.

"I slept for a while and feel refreshed."

Chen Yi chuckled to himself, his mind and body now in a state of clarity and tranquility.

After looking at it for a moment, he took out the Xunwang Token and probed into it with his mind, preparing to tell Qingfeng and the others that he had successfully crossed the Netherworld River.

But as soon as he arrived at the Azure Water Mirror, he saw several lines of text:

[Good news, good news! Yi-ge'er has crossed the River of the Underworld. He should be able to reunite with you soon.]
[I'm so envious! It's a pity my strength is too low; I can't go on this adventure with you guys.]
[However, I've already told my mother that I'll be in seclusion for a while. She's brought me a lot of pills and blood cores; this time I absolutely must raise my cultivation to the Celestial Realm, and my bloodline supernatural abilities also need to reach the Supernatural Realm.]
[It's alright, Xiaolan. This trip to the secret realm was indeed a bit rushed. Next time, I'll have my senior brother find another suitable secret realm for you, and then we'll have Alang and the others come along.]
[Me? I think I'll pass. The environments in the secret realms I've been to are all quite extreme, not suitable for you guys.]
[That's not the point, okay? Ah Lang, didn't you see that Yi Ge'er has already crossed the Nether River? He'll be at Mount Tai Zhou soon.]
[Oh, that's true. It just so happens that the secret realm I'm in right now isn't too far from the foot of the mountain. I'll go find Yi-ge'er first, and then we'll meet outside that secret realm.]
[Alright, then I'll wait for Daoist Master and the others at Sword Dao Heaven. Sister Qingfeng and Sister Liu'er are both in Xun Wang Heaven; they'll be on their way here. Eighth Prince?]
[This time... never mind, I've got nothing else to do lately, I'll go with you to that secret realm and take a look. Perhaps...]
With a quick glance, Chen Yi noticed that the blue water mirror was bustling with small figures. Apart from the two Daoist masters, Zhao Muzi and Zhao Tianhe, everyone else had come here.

The sword fanatic had originally intended to ask the Eighth Prince a question, but upon seeing him appear, he immediately greeted him:

[Yi-ge'er is here. He was talking about you earlier. Has he arrived at Taizhou Mountain yet?]
Chen Yi smiled and nodded, then greeted the Eighth Prince and the others, uttering several large words: "[I am currently at the foot of Mount Taizhou, in Forget-Worry Valley.]"
[The day after tomorrow, I'll set off early that morning for that secret place in the mountains. However, I'm not sure of the exact route, so I'll need your help guiding me.]
Ah Lang waved his hand and grinned, "[That's easy.]"
[Apart from the entrances to those realms, Mount Taizhou is just an ordinary mountain; you can simply climb upwards.]
No sooner had he finished speaking than Qingfeng snorted: "[Brother, don't try to mislead Chen Er with your reckless methods.]"
There are still many places to be careful of on Mount Taizhou, such as the Blade Valley at the foot of the mountain and the Wood Forest Formation, which cannot be traversed by brute force alone.
[If someone were to enter carelessly, even with Chen Er's strength, he would encounter some trouble. Getting trapped inside would be a huge waste of time.]
Chen Yi raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "[There are places like this? Are they dangerous?]"
Ah Lang coughed and chuckled dryly, "[There is some danger, but it won't be life-threatening.]"
[However, Qingfeng is right. When Yi-ge comes, he should find out more beforehand. I'll be waiting for you outside the Ice Sea Realm halfway up the mountain.]
That's how you say it.
Qingfeng rolled his eyes at him, then looked at Chen Yi mischievously and said, "[I have a detailed map of Mount Taizhou here, which not only marks the entrances to various forbidden areas and realms, but more importantly, it contains the experience left by my predecessors in Xunwangtian.]"
Chen Yi chuckled, knowing full well her plan: [How many blood cores?]
[Not expensive at all, just one blood core from the third to fifth level of the Divine Power realm.]
Qingfeng had been eyeing Chen Yi for a long time.

To be precise, ever since she learned that the human race had received a large sum of compensation from the demon court, she had been thinking about how to get more from Chen Yi.

One hundred million demon blood cores, of which there must be some great demon king blood cores at the Divine Power Realm.

She didn't believe that Chen Yi hadn't gotten some benefit from those compensations.

[Surely, such a small amount of blood core shouldn't be a difficult task for you, an ancestor of the human race?]
Upon hearing this, Chen Yi glanced at the timid half-demon princess and immediately realized that she was the one who had leaked the secret.

[It's not expensive, I agree.]
Chen Yi wasn't indifferent to those blood cores, nor was he being extravagant; rather, he was using them as a way to present something to someone else.

Thanks to Daoist Zhao Muzi's help, the crisis of the human race was alleviated. It is only right to give Xun Wangtian some blood cores through Qingfeng.

[I knew Chen Er, you're the best! Hahaha!]
Qingfeng was overjoyed at successfully deceiving... no, successfully obtaining a demon blood core at the fifth level of supernatural power. Soon, she used the Azure Water Mirror to transmit the contents of a jade slip to Chen Yi.

This can be considered as a trading rule that Master Zhao Muzi specially created recently to make things easier for the people of Xunwangtian.

From this, Chen Yi could easily see that Daoist Zhao Muzi's supernatural powers had become even stronger.

This also confirms what Daoist Zhao Muzi said earlier—helping the human race would also bring him considerable benefits.

[Transaction complete. I need to remind you, Senior Brother said there's only one month left until that secret realm opens. You'd better hurry, don't miss the opening time.]
Hearing Qingfeng's reminder, Xiao Liu'er, who had been silent all along, spoke up:

[Be careful these days, especially Yi-ge'er and A-lang. I've heard that many people on the mountain are secretly hunting down cultivators heading towards that place of prodigies.]
[Even we, the people of Xunwangtian, would be in mortal danger if they were given the opportunity.]
Ah Lang shook his fist. [Oh? Such a good thing? Haha, I've just had some success lately, let me try my luck.]
Chen Yi wasn't worried about that. He smiled and thanked them, saying, "[This is my first time visiting Taizhou Mountain, so I hope they'll go easy on me.]"
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

The sword fanatic exaggerated the most: "[Brother Yi, you always make too much noise when you fight. If they really run into you, they'll probably run away very fast.]"
Before Chen Yi could say anything, Xiao Liu'er shook her head and said seriously, "[Don't forget what I said before. The rumors spread by those people from 'Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss,' coupled with Daoist Zhao Muzi's intervention earlier, have already convinced many people that Brother Yi is the inheritor of the ancient Daoist court.]"
[Perhaps someone really will go to ambush Yi-ge this time; we should still be careful.]
[oh? ]
Chen Yi raised an eyebrow slightly, smiled, and nodded to indicate that he had remembered it.

Ah Lang, standing beside him, chuckled and said, "[In that case, shouldn't I hurry up and meet up with Yi-ge'er? Otherwise, I'll miss out on some exciting things.]"
Qingfeng scoffed, "[If some old monster really makes a move, then don't blame me for begging my senior brother for help. Do you think Xun Wangtian is made of clay?]"
Chen Yi chuckled, but he also kept their reminder in mind.

After chatting with Qingfeng and the others for a few more minutes, he withdrew his mind from the Xunwang Order.

Then he closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and looked at the map of Mount Taizhou.

To be fair, aside from being greedy for money, what Qingfeng brought out was genuinely useful.

Not only are there detailed markings everywhere, but there are also warnings from the various Xunwangtian regarding the forbidden areas of Taizhou Mountain.

For example, in Blade Valley, the most dangerous element is the sharp, metallic aura.

It is not an ordinary weapon, but a solidified form of the golden spirit between heaven and earth. Those who are not strong enough will have their bodies shattered by this sharp golden energy in an instant.

It's estimated that its power is comparable to the fifth level of the Divine Power realm.

Furthermore, the Ice Sea Realm where Alang resides requires nearly ten days' journey from the foot of the mountain.

However, this was no problem for Chen Yi. With his mental perception and the ability to travel to distant places at close range, traveling was the most convenient option.

"Taizhou Mountain, huh? Hehe."

If someone really dares to come knocking on his door, he might just go on a killing spree!
