Grandpa, times have changed.

Chapter 632 is really overpowered!

The next morning.

The distant sky was overcast, and a thin, drifting mist made the entire Sword Sect appear hazy.

At the gate of the Sword Sect, a cold wind howled, carrying a biting chill.

"Ugh... Ah~"

Chi Jiuyu yawned, stretched, and then turned to look at Zhao Ruohan.

"Since you don't have anything to do when you go back, why don't you stay and play for a couple more days?"

"No, thank you." Zhao Ruohan shook her head and refused. "The spiritual plant seeds given by Senior Sword Ancestor are very compatible with my innate divine abilities. I need to go back and study them as soon as possible."

Crimson Sun Tree...

After discovering that the spiritual plant seeds were highly compatible with her innate supernatural abilities, she checked them out on the spiritual network last night and also sent a message to Ye Zhiwei to ask her.

All of them came to nothing.

She originally wanted to ask her mother and father, but considering it was too late, she chose not to disturb them.

"What? You're still thinking of surpassing me?" Chi Jiuyu chuckled.

Xiao Zhao is truly indomitable.

"Once I've nurtured this Crimson Sun Tree, I'm sure I can withstand your sword strike," Zhao Ruohan said earnestly.

Chi Jiuyu pouted: "The day you grow the tree, my sword strike will be much more powerful than it was yesterday."

Her black candle fruit tree has remained unchanged after all this time.

Seriously, my uncle is something else. When he realized that Xiao Zhao couldn't beat her, he just gave Xiao Zhao a "cheat code"...

As the number one genius in all the heavens and myriad realms, and the youngest Nascent Soul cultivator in history, she must be under a lot of pressure!

"Alright! Let's not talk about this anymore."

Although Xiao Zhao always "insults his superiors" and tries to defeat her, the number one genius in all the heavens and myriad realms.

But aside from that, the two get along quite well!

"Come visit Sword Sect again sometime to play with toads."

"Ah."

One failure doesn't mean anything.

She will not give up her idea of ​​challenging Chi Jiuyu because of this.

"You are also welcome to come and find me at the Supreme Dao Sect."

"It will drip! It will drip!"

Immediately, Zhao Ruohan turned around and prepared to leave.

"and many more!"

"Ok?"

“I almost forgot.” Chi Jiuyu took out an exquisite lunchbox carved from cold jade. “Could you please give this to Senior Sister Yang Shuang of the ‘Talisman Sword’ lineage for me?”

Zhao Ruohan paused, glanced at the jade box she was handed over, and felt a strange feeling in her heart.

To be honest, she had felt something was off about this a long time ago.

Chi Jiuyu addressed her as "Little Zhao" and Ye Zhiwei as "Little Ye," but she was willing to call Yang Shuang of the "Talisman Sword Lineage" "Senior Sister."

Why do you call her that?

"Why what?" Chi Jiuyu looked completely bewildered.

What is Xiao Zhao asking?
"Shouldn't you call her 'Xiao Yang' according to your usual practice?"

"Huh?" Chi Jiuyu scratched her head. "Wasn't she very kind to us when we were studying at the Supreme Dao Sect?"

Most importantly, she could clearly sense that Senior Sister Yang Shuang was a level more 'mature' than herself.

The 'maturity' here refers not only to age, but also to the 'psychological' level.

To put it simply, she felt that Senior Sister Yang Shuang was older than her...

Cough!

For example, there are quite a few people like this in the Sword Sect.

Despite being of a lower generation than her, his old-fashioned demeanor made her feel awkward when addressing him by his name.

She usually addresses these types of people by their job titles.

Blue-gold longsword: "..."

The phrase 'old-fashioned and pretentious' doesn't seem to be used like that.

Never mind, there are still people here. I'll remind them after they leave.

Zhao Ruohan thought for a moment, then said seriously:

"I take good care of you too."

"Hey! We're like family." Chi Jiuyu waved her hand dismissively. "You don't expect me to call you 'senior sister,' do you?"

"It's not impossible."

"You're thinking shit!"

Zhao Ruohan: "..."

Chi Jiuyu never utters a single pleasant word.

He reached out and took the jade box.

Inside were some fish and meat, as well as precious spiritual materials that Xu Xing had previously generously sponsored.

The jade box itself was valuable, but compared to the spiritual materials contained inside, it was nothing.

"I'm leaving."

"Uh-huh!"

Then, Zhao Ruohan transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky, heading towards the other teleportation array.

Chi Jiuyu watched her go until she completely disappeared from sight, then yawned and leisurely flew back to his cave on his sword.

……

……

As evening fell, the sun began to set.

After several large-scale long-distance teleportation arrays, Zhao Ruohan successfully returned to the Supreme Dao Sect.

However, she did not return to her cave immediately.

Instead, he first went to Sky Island, where the 'Talisman Sword' lineage was located, to deliver the gift that Chi Jiuyu had asked him to bring to Yang Shuang.

But they had only just set foot on the island.

"Yo!"

After a series of changes, when her vision cleared again, Zhao Ruohan found herself in a small pavilion next to the central square of the island.

Hong Qianqian sat in the pavilion, holding a brush in one hand, with a newly made talisman on the table in front of her.

The Yin-dispelling talisman is one of the most basic talismans.

It can dispel some weak wandering ghosts and remove the yin energy from the body of those who are afflicted by yin energy.

However, nowadays only haunted houses in amusement parks with relatively ordinary facilities use it, since setting up a special array is too expensive, while talismans for dispelling evil spirits are cheap and effective.

Having some cultivators of lower levels carry the item on their bodies while visiting a haunted house can protect visitors from the malevolent spirits and yin energy within.

"Why are you here so soon after you got back?" Hong Qianqian put down her pen. "What? Do you have a gift for me?"

“…There is indeed a gift, but it’s not for you, Sister Qianqian.” Zhao Ruohan paused and explained, “Chi Jiuyu asked me to give it to Yang Shuang.”

She took out the jade box.

"Yang Shuang?"

Hong Qianqian beckoned, and the jade box in Zhao Ruohan's hand slowly floated up and finally landed in her hand.

"That's really unfortunate. The little guy you mentioned hasn't come out of seclusion yet."

As the founder of the 'Talisman Sword' lineage of the Supreme Dao Sect, she remembers everyone in her lineage.

So as soon as Zhao Ruohan mentioned it, she knew who it was.

"Leave it with me for now, I'll give it to her when she comes out of customs."

As she spoke, she glanced inside the jade box.

That one glance was enough to make her raise an eyebrow.

"The specifications are quite high! It seems that Jiu Yu has really gone all out this time."

This level of spiritual material...

A portion of it was definitely donated by the Sword Master or the Sword Ancestor.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Qianqian."

"It's nothing, no trouble at all." Hong Qianqian leaned back. "Didn't you go to the Sword Sect to spar with Jiu Yu this time? How did it go?"

"I lost."

How long did it take her to beat you?

"One sword."

"Huh?! That can't be right!"

It's normal not to win, but to lose with just one strike...

Unless Jiu Yu is cheating!
"It's just one sword strike." If Chi Jiuyu had used the 'Sword of Annihilation' from the start, she would have lost from the very beginning.

Therefore, it's not wrong to say it's a single sword strike.

"I heard from the Sword Ancestor that it is the 'Sword of Annihilation'."

"The Sword of Annihilation?!"

Hong Qianqian's tone carried a hint of surprise.

"That makes sense."

Jiu Yu is really cheating.

But how could she master the 'Sword of Annihilation' at such a young age?
Their swordsmanship talent is probably about the same as that guy's...

In an instant, that figure, which existed only in distant memories, flashed through my mind.

"By the way, Senior Sword Ancestor also gave me a seed of the Crimson Sun Tree. Sister Qianqian, have you ever heard of this spiritual plant?"

Zhao Ruohan opened her hand, and a perfectly round, translucent seed with a bright red glow inside lay quietly in her palm.

"..."

After staring at her for a while, Hong Qianqian slowly spoke.

"This is a very precious spiritual plant. The one you have is one of only three remaining seeds."

Crimson Sun Tree.

It is a sacred tree unique to the Crimson Flame Spirit Clan in ancient times, and it is also one of the main materials for the Cang Clan to refine the 'Danhua Lamp', which can gather 'Yangjing Danxi'.

The seed in Xiao Ruohan's hand is one of the three seeds obtained by the Sword Ancestor after he wiped out the Crimson Flame Spirit Clan and uprooted their three mother trees.

"You can ask your father for help."

The Crimson Flame Spirits are beings with profound spiritual attainments, one of the most powerful races in ancient times, and their unique divine tree is naturally extraordinary.

Its grade is so high that it is almost second only to top-tier divine trees like the Xuanzhu Fruit Tree.

That's why it's extremely difficult to raise one properly.

Without my father's help, it would probably have taken hundreds of years for it to sprout.

Zhao Ruohan: "..."

Why does it feel like Sister Qianqian didn't say anything, yet it's as if she said everything?
……

……

Soon, several months passed quietly.

The central continent remained calm and peaceful, just as it had always been.

During this period, Zhou Kongming, Xiaoyu, and other members of the first batch of ascension envoys also digested what they had gained from this ascension mission, and their cultivation improved.

Gao Wuwang performed the best in this ascension mission.

Originally, his cultivation level and supernatural abilities were only considered average among the seven.

However, after experiencing this mission, he came from behind and was the first to realize a trace of the Dao.

Although they are still far from being able to truly seize this opportunity, they have jumped from the middle of the seven to the forefront.

Meanwhile, among the second batch of ascended messengers.

Ever since 'Qing' came to the Tai Xuan Realm with Lin Changsheng and learned that Lin Changsheng had been deceived in love, she has been transforming into Sheng Qingqing's appearance every day, saying that she wants to help him temper his Dao heart...

As it turned out, Lin Changsheng actually broke through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, becoming the first cultivator of their generation to advance to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

But it was during this period that...

Ning Wanzhu and Ming Yu, who were still in the Chaos Sea, had only built fifty-seven main nodes.

It wasn't that they were distracted by the 'World Protected by All Realms'; they had always been very clear about what was more important.

However, setting up a connection node for the Immortal Network in an unfamiliar area was far more difficult than they had imagined.

Even though they had tried their best, the overall progress was still unsatisfactory...

Fortunately, this was a case of 'the beginning is the hardest'.

As their 'understanding' of the surrounding area deepens, the speed at which they build nodes will become faster and faster.

……

……

At noon, the sun shines brightly.

Inside Zhang Yunlu's cave dwelling, within the inner sect of the Sword Sect.

Although she moved to the inner courtyard, the overall layout was still similar to the small courtyard she had in the outer courtyard.

"Hey Yunlu, why do you always end up looking so disheveled?"

Under the grape trellis, Chi Jiuyu sat on a swing, swaying back and forth.

Her gaze fell on Zhang Yunlu, who was sitting in a wheelchair with both legs broken and her head and hands wrapped in gauze, by the pond where spirit fish were kept.

"Something unexpected happened."

She had already completed her mission, but on her way back to the starship, a biological weapon at the Nascent Soul stage suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

As a prodigy of the Sword Sect, it's true that she can fight across ranks...

But there's no way to jump over so many levels!

As a result, she desperately chopped off several scales of the bio-weapon while fighting and fleeing.

Fortunately, just as she was about to be killed and was about to use a teleportation talisman to escape, the local planetary garrison commander appeared and saved her from the biological weapons...

"Come on! When have you ever gone on a mission without any mishaps?" Chi Jiuyu retorted.

Xiao Yunlu is practically born with an unlucky constitution; every time she goes on a mission, she always comes back half-dead.

I feel even more unlucky than I was back then.

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

Zhang Yunlu smiled, but her face was extremely pale.

At first, she was indeed a little frustrated, after all, every mission was fraught with unexpected events, who could stand that!

But after experiencing it many times, I was able to deal with it with a calm mind.

Chi Jiuyu: "..."

Xiao Yunlu's words sound a little pitiful.

"If you can't beat them, just run away. Why fight so hard?"

“Isn’t my senior sister also working hard?” Zhang Yunlu said.

Not only is he exceptionally talented, but he is also constantly working hard.

"I don't want to be left far behind by my senior sister."

An accident is an accident, but if you handle it properly, you might not die. In fact, you might even trigger a dangerous principle and speed up your cultivation progress.

Moreover, being injured can also trigger the "Dangerous Principle" to some extent, thus accelerating the recovery process.

I calculated that I actually made a profit!

Most importantly, I had already wasted a lot of time before meeting my senior uncle. If I didn't work harder, how could I keep up with my senior sister?

"If you work this hard, we'll be under a lot of pressure," Chi Jiuyu muttered to herself.

Xiao Yunlu is already in the mid-Nascent Soul stage, while she's still in the early-Deity Transformation stage...

The thought of this made her feel heavy-hearted.

"Does your senior sister also feel pressure?"

"That's right!" Chi Jiuyu immediately became serious. "As the number one genius in all the heavens and myriad realms, the youngest in history..."

After a long list of 'honorary titles'.

"With so much on my shoulders, how can I not feel pressured?"

“Indeed.” Zhang Yunlu nodded.

It's normal for someone as proud and honorable as my senior to feel pressure.

"But..."

Chi Jiuyu pushed off the ground with all his might, and the swing swung high into the air.

"You still need to relax when you need to. It's okay to have pressure, but you can't keep it in your heart all the time."

Maintaining an optimistic attitude is still very important.

"By the way, did your master give you this wheelchair? Did she know from the beginning that you would have your legs broken this time?" Chi Jiuyu asked curiously.

"No."

This was mentioned by her master when he gave her the wheelchair.

Zhang Yunlu looked at Chi Jiuyu with a strange expression and her tone was also somewhat odd.

“My master said that this wheelchair was originally prepared for you.”

Ok? !

As the swing descended from its height, Chi Jiuyu quickly straightened his legs and braced them against the ground to bring it to a stop.

"Did Master really say that?!"
