Borrowing a sword

Chapter 348 Don't Leave Tonight

Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

As soon as it was light, Chu Huaixu set off for the second level of the Origin Spirit Realm.

Previously, the first level he cleared was located in the Spring and Autumn Mountain area of ​​the Eastern Continent.

Although the location of the second layer was also randomly selected, it was not in the Eastern Mirror Kingdom, but in the Moon Kingdom.

For Yu Chuhuai, this does have some advantages.

Earlier, he raised his hand and summoned the Moon Kingdom's national treasure sword, using the surging power of destiny contained within it.

During this process, his extraordinary physical body naturally benefited from the flow of energy, and a portion of it was automatically locked within his body.

Although it's not a lot, it can still be used to some extent when you're within the Moon Kingdom.

It's like having an extra buff.

Recently, Chu Huaixu has been making many preparations.

"In the first level of the Origin Spirit Realm, I encountered a Nascent Soul True Monarch who had been possessed and rebuilt his cultivation."

"Then this second level must be at least at the Nascent Soul True Monarch level."

"The newcomer will definitely be stronger than Ye Kongxuan!"

Moreover, there is one thing he cares about even more.

In the Kunlun Grotto Heaven, there are relatively few supernatural abilities for those in the Qi Refining stage.

This is because it's equivalent to the initial stage of Kunlun Cave Heaven, which is considered to be just entering the world of cultivation.

Even a Nascent Soul True Monarch who has been reborn through possession will be restricted by this.

In the previous battle, the most flashy move that old dog Ye Kongxuan used was nothing more than the Four Symbols Sword Formation.

The jade slips inside his storage ring reveal that he actually possesses a great deal of supernatural abilities.

However, the threshold for these supernatural abilities is quite high, requiring at least the Foundation Establishment stage.

"But this time, when I enter the second level, I will be facing cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage."

"These are completely different things!"

This means I'm going to beat up a centenarian!
According to the cultivation system of Kunlun Grotto Heaven, reaching the Foundation Establishment stage at the age of one hundred is already considered the mark of a prodigy.

If someone reaches the Foundation Establishment stage at the age of seventy or eighty, then they are an absolute prodigy!

Even if one possesses another body to rebuild their cultivation, it is no exception.

Chu Huaixu couldn't figure out whether he was going to encounter an old man or an old woman.

But no matter what, others didn't live in vain.

Having lived to this age and cultivated all the way to the Foundation Establishment stage, his strength is definitely far superior to that of cultivators in the Qi Refining stage.

"If it weren't for the suppression and rejection by the Heavenly Dao power here in the Xuanhuang Realm, the strength of a peak Foundation Establishment stage cultivator would be roughly equivalent to the peak of the fourth realm here."

"I suspect this trip won't be easy either."

Therefore, half a month ago, Chu Huaixu followed the old routine and obtained a few more wisps of evil energy from the bronze sword.

This time, it's not about strengthening the Evil Pill.

Because the two Soul Pills can no longer be strengthened.

He was doing this to refine a new Elixir of Immortality!

On the one hand, this could become one of his trump cards.

On the other hand, this thing can be used to store spiritual roots.

As his cultivation level improved, Chu Huaixu's development of the [Dao Begins with One] also improved.

It took a lot of time to refine the Demon Pill.

In just nine days, two more have been refined.

Immediately afterwards, he did the same thing again, drawing evil energy from the bronze sword to strengthen two evil pills.

Even the evil sword was rendered somewhat powerless by him.

Every time it's about to flare up, it's suppressed and blocked, forcing it into a deep sleep.

The next time he was awakened, he couldn't help but fly into a rage again upon seeing Chu Huaixu.

Once the sword spirit becomes enraged, the evil energy of the most malevolent forces in the world will overflow, and Chu Huaixu will absorb it, making it impossible to resolve!

Unless it happens to find Chu Huaixu pleasing to the eye one day
However, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the dead fox will have plenty of ways to provoke it again.

"How clever can a broken sword be?"

He was just playing around with idiots.

Besides preparing two Elixir Pills, he also spent this time learning various spells from his masters.

He learned some talisman techniques from Li Chunsong.

He learned some pupil techniques from Zhao Shuqi.

I learned some magic arrays using Lu Pan's relics.

For this, a lot of experience points were spent.

After all, Chu Huaixu knew very well that, according to the original storyline, Xu Ziqing was supposed to complete the game alone with just one sword.

The bronze sword directly released its evil energy, rendering any fancy tricks or methods used by the opponent largely ineffective.

But he's different; he can genuinely be outplayed and killed by someone's skillful maneuvers.

Therefore, he decided to make himself flashy as well.

Learn all sorts of unorthodox methods; you can't go wrong!
During this period, all the high-ranking members of the Taoist sect began to marvel at Chu Huaixu's comprehension.

In any case, as long as you teach him something today and then test him tomorrow, he will have basically learned it.

Li Chunsong felt: "Compared to him, I was nothing but rotten wood back then!"

As for Zhao Shuqi, in his eyes he was nothing more than a second-rate rotten wood.

In such a short period of time, Chu Huaixu has already become a mid-grade talisman master, mid-grade array master, and mid-grade pupil master.

Although he had a taste of being a prodigy, giving people the illusion that he was even more exaggerated than someone with a comprehension level of 10, he also almost exhausted his experience points.

As the sun set, the family of three, along with their unexpected guest Lin Zixuan, finished their dinner together at the table.

After the meal, Chu Huaixu glanced at her.

He sensed that the little girl was distracted; her appetite had even decreased today.

Feeling Chu Huaixu's gaze, she actually stood up, quickly cleared away the dishes, and prepared to wash them.

Dead Fox: "."

That's not what he meant.

Chu Huaixu spoke first, "Speak, what do you want?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Zixuan's face showed a hint of hesitation. She looked up at this person who was practically her enemy, and finally said, "That."

"Would you like to implant the [Spirit Seed] into my body again?"

After thinking about it for a while, the dead fox finally agreed this time.

"Row."

The two went inside and sat cross-legged facing each other.

Chu Huaixu took a drop of essence blood and infused it with a wisp of spiritual power and a wisp of divine consciousness.

Lin Zixuan immediately used her secret technique, then opened her small mouth and put it in her mouth.

She held it in her mouth, then slowly refined it completely within her body, establishing a faint connection with Chu Huaixu.

At this point, all preparations for entering the Origin Spirit Realm were complete.

The night is getting darker.

Chu Huaixu sat on the futon and opened his task interface.

After the East-West Continent Grand Competition concluded, he once again won the title of Xuanhuang Champion, and naturally, he was able to receive the main quest about the Origin Spirit Realm.

The rewards for this mission are still very generous.

"A Heavenly-level treasure chest, plus 1 point of Spirit Embryo attribute, and 200 million experience points."

The rewards are similar to those for the East-West Continental Grand Finals, except for an extra million experience points.

Of course, more importantly, once you clear the level, you can also obtain the Xuanhuang Origin Fragment.

Chu Huaixu personally speculates that this time it will most likely be two pieces as well!

"I reckon they'll bring a piece over from Kunlun Cave Heaven," he thought to himself.

He has now basically figured out that the so-called great calamity of heaven and earth is actually just a very cliché alien invasion.

The so-called alien races are naturally the cultivators from Kunlun Grotto Heaven.

The so-called primordial spiritual realm can actually be understood as a series of boundary points.

If Chu Huaixu loses, the Kunlun cultivators will seize the Origin Fragment and use a secret technique to cause the boundary to collapse.

In this way, it's as if a "hole" has been torn in the Xuanhuang Realm. This hole will then become one of the passages for cultivators to descend upon this realm in the future.

What's even more complicated is that after such a "hole" was created, the cultivators of the Xuanhuang Realm didn't actually know where it was.

Because the Primordial Spirit Realm is a very special place; it is like a virtual world, located between the virtual and the real.

When Chu Huaixu went to the Moon Kingdom this time, that location was only the entrance to the second level of the Origin Spirit Realm.

You can think of it as a "teleportation array" being there.

But no one knows exactly where the Primordial Spirit Realm is.

Therefore, when the Kunlun Cave Heaven actually launches a large-scale invasion, people cannot set up defenses in certain locations in advance.

Because they had no idea where they would arrive.

There is only one best way.

That means protecting the original spiritual realm and killing the cultivators on the other side!

Direct and brutal!

After Chu Huaixu opened his eyes while sitting on the futon, he noticed that someone was outside.

He opened the door and saw Han Shuangjiang standing there. He smiled and invited her in, asking, "Why didn't you knock?"

"I'm afraid you're meditating and I'll disturb you," the big ice block said.

Chu Huaixu took her little hand and led her to sit down on the bench.

"What's wrong?" he asked gently.

"I just couldn't sleep, and I couldn't concentrate on my cultivation, so I wanted to come and see you," the big ice block said softly, bowing slightly.

"You seem so restless, are you worried about me?" Chu Huaixu asked with a smile.

"How could I not worry!" Han Shuangjiang replied irritably.

She continued, "I just feel that in the vast Xuanhuang Realm, there are so many powerful people and so many talented individuals, so why is it that the most dangerous things and the heaviest burdens always fall on your shoulders?"

Chu Huaixu thought to himself, "That's right, Xiao Xu should have risked his life to fight!"

Seriously, hiring a dishwasher came at a high price!
He shrugged and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. The Origin Spirit Realm is such a special place."

"Moreover, I estimate that I can only fight the first three rounds at most. Judging from the time, it is unlikely that I will have already cultivated to the seventh realm by the time the fourth level of the Origin Spirit Realm opens."

"Not to mention the fifth level, which is only accessible to those above the eighth realm."

Although Chu Huaixu had the system with him, he didn't think that leveling up could be this fast.

Once you reach the fifth stage of cultivation, progress becomes extremely difficult.

On the system side, this will result in a massive increase in the experience points required for leveling up!
In the following year, he advanced from the third realm to the fifth realm; with some effort, it was still possible.

But to advance from the fifth realm to the seventh realm of perfection the year after next would be a pipe dream.

If nothing unexpected happens, the fourth level of the Origin Spirit Realm will probably still require Master Shen Man to personally fight it.

Unless he has some extraordinary good fortune, with so many experience points that he can't use them all and can level up at lightning speed.

Han Shuangjiang remained noncommittal upon hearing this.

She simply said, "I guess Junior Brother Xu is probably tossing and turning and can't sleep either, so he probably can't concentrate on his cultivation."

"He's probably feeling really guilty."

"Why?" Chu Huaixu asked, puzzled.

"Because he knows in his heart that he is the chosen one in the Dao Ancestor's admonition, and he should be the one to wield that sword and enter the Origin Spirit Realm. Now it has become you who are risking your life for him. Do you think that with Junior Brother Xu's personality, he can be at ease?" Han Shuangjiang replied.

The dead fox immediately set up a sound-silencing array before starting to ramble on, saying, "What can we do? He's so weak compared to me!"

After saying that, he said with a serious expression, "Actually, none of these are important. What's important is to solve the problem of the great calamity of heaven and earth. After all, this is not a matter for one person alone."

"Since I am the most suitable, then I should go."

After uttering those two sentences, Chu Huaixu was stunned for a moment, wondering if he had been influenced by the Daoist sect for too long.

I'm clearly not that upright!

He held Han Shuangjiang's small hand, gently patted the back of her hand, and said softly, "I know you're worried about my safety."

"I promise you, I will definitely come back safe and sound, don't worry."

"Yeah." The girl nodded.

Then, she saw Chu Huaixu looking at her with a smile.

The two have been Daoist partners for some time now, and naturally, they share an unspoken understanding.

How could she not know what that smile meant?
But the big ice block still said, "Why are you looking at me like that with such a smile?"

Chu Huaixu said, "I feel like it's been a long time since we've been alone together like this."

"Nonsense, three days ago you were still... um—!"

Before she could finish speaking, her mouth was covered.

In an instant, both of them could vaguely feel each other's breath.

Han Shuangjiang gently pushed Chu Huaixu.

I had very little strength; there was no movement, and I couldn't push it away.

Then she pushed it gently again, with less force than before.

There was no movement, and it couldn't be pushed open.

Instead, it had a slightly coy, inviting feel to it.

Immediately afterwards, all that remained was to cater to them.

Han Shuangjiang, a theoretical master with "two degrees", has made rapid progress under the "tutelage" of Chu Huaixu.

Therefore, the two of them were actually very comfortable kissing.

After a long while, Chu Huaixu made a strategic separation of their lips, then looked down at her flushed face and flirted with her eyes.

Han Shuangjiang stared intently at him, her full lips slightly parted, her chest rising and falling, having switched from nasal to mouth breathing.

"Senior Sister," Chu Huaixu called out with a smile.

Han Shuangjiang was so angry that she punched him, and there was no trace of the cold and aloof demeanor of a cold-faced girl.
"Don't call me senior sister!" she said, somewhat embarrassed.

"Why don't you stay tonight?" Chu Huaixu said with a forced smile.

"But...I..." she said, her words faltering slightly.

"But what?"

"My Xuan Yin Body is beyond the Fifth Realm. Anyway, it's impossible!" The giant ice block immediately refused.

"What are you thinking? Who said I wanted to consummate our marriage?" He stared into the other person's eyes, and after a second, deliberately made a "tsk!" sound.

But in reality, he only regretted that neither he nor Han Shuangjiang had cultivated to the fifth realm yet!
The two have been Daoist partners for so long that it should have been a natural progression long ago.

He hugged Han Shuangjiang tightly and made her sit on his lap.

This caused the girl to instinctively gasp in surprise.

Her plump buttocks instantly pressed against her thighs, the flesh of her buttocks overflowing outwards, making her dress bulge and outlining a round and full curve.

Chu Huaixu did not say anything further.

Instead, their lips met again.

His two large hands were placed on Han Shuangjiang's waist.

Her hip-to-hip ratio is already amazing, and the outward curve is just right for letting go.

After their lips parted, he walked down their necks.

This only made Han Shuangjiang feel itchy and hot.

"Chu Huaixu, that's enough," she said, trying to stop him.

However, his voice was slightly breathy, with a slight tremor at the end and an extremely subtle crack.

With that kind of sound, who could possibly stop?
Chu Huaixu intensified his efforts, and his hands, which were on his waist, began to move upwards.

After cuddling together for a while, he simply picked her up and carried her to the bed.

Han Shuangjiang looked at him, and a resigned expression gradually appeared on her face.

The thought of him setting off for the Origin Spirit Realm tomorrow made it impossible for her to refuse.

Moreover, she herself had become somewhat addicted to it.

Her robes were unfastened and slipped down from her collarbone and shoulders.

Chu Huaixu's large hand covered a rounded belly, and even through the layer of fabric, one could feel its fullness and elasticity.

He could sense that Han Shuangjiang was deliberately suppressing her voice, so much so that he could only hear her breathing heavily through her mouth.

There was nothing we could do; Xiao Xu was in the next room.

But he just found it funny and said, "You forgot, I set up a sound-blocking array."

"You...you learned formations just for this? Hmm."
