Chapter 74 Seclusion, Frankness

However, the amount of true qi required for [Heavenly Evolution] is terrifying, and even with Huang Yu's enormous amount, it cannot be sustained for too long.

As the vital energy was rapidly depleted, the balance within the body could no longer be maintained, and instantly, conflict erupted within the body!

puff!

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Huang Yu held his breath and used the Reverse Life Triple Technique and the Nine Breaths Breath Control Technique to quickly recover from his injuries.

"A bonsai tree alone is not enough."

Huang Yu slowly opened his eyes and looked at the golden Bodhi tree in his hand: "Its ability is too limited. It can only help people understand their true nature and speed up their thinking. It has no actual deductive ability. It's a bit of a waste to inscribe the Bodhi tree's true name on it."

"Let's consider it again after we've crafted an even more powerful magical artifact."

Then, as if he had thought of something, Huang Yu's lips curled up slightly: "The amplification from the Bodhi Tree alone is still a bit lacking, but what if we combine it with the enlightenment state of [Spiritual Awareness]?"

"Neither of these two aspects is sufficient for me to improve the Triple Rebirth technique —"

"But combining the two should work!"

Huang Yu took a deep breath, intending to try a few more times with the help of the Bodhi tree, collect more data, and then use the [Spiritual Awareness] enlightenment.

Thus, all efforts were accomplished in one battle!

He has made long-term preparations for seclusion.

He just didn't expect that when he used the Bodhi Tree artifact and [Spiritual Awareness] at the same time, the time of that enlightenment would exceed his imagination.

Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

Outside the secluded cave, someone seemed to be pacing back and forth, restless and agitated.

He looked at Zuo Ruotong anxiously and said, "Senior brother, could something have really happened to Chixia inside? It's been so long, why hasn't she come out of seclusion yet!"

"The food inside the cave was long gone, and the food we left at the cave entrance hasn't been touched since."

"At least let me in for a quick look. I won't say anything, I just want to check on the situation!"

Zuo Ruotong refused, saying, "No, we can't go in! Chixia is at a critical moment right now. I have a feeling this is his opportunity."

"Oh dear! Senior brother!" Si Chong was exasperated. He regarded this talented disciple as the future pillar of Sanyi.

Zuo Ruotong laughed and said, "What, don't you believe my judgment?"

"Although Chixia hasn't come out for so long, I can sense that his vital signs are fine!"

"On the contrary, it's very active! An activity unlike anything seen in a typical case of reversing life—"

At this point, a hint of surprise appeared in Zuo Ruotong's eyes.

He looked up at the sky, where the free energy from all directions was converging into the cave.

Inside the cave, his disciple's breath exhibited a peculiar state: tearing, reconstructing, tearing again, and reconstructing again!

Zuo Ruotong was all too familiar with this state. He had been maintaining his reverse aging for decades, and he went through this process every day, only his efficiency was vastly different from Huang Yu's!

"Not only that, but Crimson Glow's reverse growth also seems to possess a peculiar rhythm—what exactly is he doing?"

"Modifying cultivation techniques is no easy task, especially an extremely subtle one like Reverse Life!"

Zuo Ruotong was both worried and expectant. He had always longed for a "partner" to walk with him on the road to rebirth.

Now, it seems he has found it, and to his utter surprise.

This also confirms a subtle suspicion he had long ago: that Chixia's identity is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

"As your teacher, I can't help you much, I can only protect you."

"But after you emerge from seclusion, could you show your master something truly special?"

Thinking of this, Zuo Ruotong's eyes narrowed, and she said to Si Chong, "Si Chong, take a few disciples and go to guard the surrounding area. Don't let anyone disturb Chixia."

"You don't need to worry about this place, I'll personally guard it."

The sect leader had given the order, and Si Chong had no choice but to obey, leading Cheng Zhen and the others away.

Five days later, the Qi within the cave gradually calmed down.

"It should be over."

Zuo Ruotong stared intently at the cave entrance.

A moment later, a gaunt man emerged from the cave entrance. He looked unwell, but his eyes were incredibly bright.

Huang Yu smiled at Zuo Ruotong and said, "Master, could you let me eat something first? I'm hungry."

Zuo Ruotong immediately relaxed and nodded, saying, "Haha, of course! I'll have someone prepare it right away!"

In the main hall of the Sanyi Gate, there were only Huang Yu and Zuo Ruotong.

After Huang Yu finished eating and drinking, he wiped his mouth and asked, "Master, with your discerning eye, you should have noticed that something was wrong with me long ago, right?"

"Why didn't you expose me? Why did you even protect me?"

After emerging from seclusion this time, Huang Yu realized that his identity could no longer be concealed, because his actions had exceeded the limits of a genius.

No genius could cultivate the Reverse Life Triad to the second level in just over two years, and then go into seclusion for more than three months to try to modify the Reverse Life Technique.

Zuo Ruotong remained calm and shook her head, saying, "It's not that exaggerated. I just used to think you were too mature, that you had even found your own path, and that you weren't like a child."

"But this can also be explained by the experience you described. People can indeed have a profound realization after suffering."

"What finally confirmed my suspicions was your seclusion this time."

At this point, Zuo Ruotong suddenly laughed: "Hmph, don't think you've fooled your master. I've traveled all over the country for decades, and I can still tell whether a person is sincere or not."

"Although you concealed your identity, I am certain that everything you said to me came from your heart."

"That's why I finally accepted you."

Huang Yu pondered for a moment, then wiped his face with both hands, crushed the talisman, and removed his disguise.

With a rapid change in his appearance, Huang Yu faced Zuo Ruotong in his original form!

"Disciple Huang Yu greets Master!"

Zuo Ruotong nodded slightly, looking at Huang Yu with interest: "Removing your disguise so readily, aren't you afraid I'll keep you here?"

Huang Yu said frankly, "I'm not afraid, I understand you. Besides, you might not be able to keep me here."

Zuo Ruotong laughed and said, "Oh? So confident? How about we, master and disciple, practice a few moves later?"

Huang Yu's lips curled up slightly: "I couldn't be happier! I also want to try your reversal of life! To see what reversal of life at its peak is all about!"

Zuo Ruotong was slightly taken aback, then shook her head and chuckled: "No rush, I still have some questions I want to ask."

"For example, where did you learn your disguise skills from? I couldn't even see a clue."

"Especially your eyes, and your overall breathing state, are all perfect!"

Huang Yu explained, "My knowledge is quite diverse, but my disguise skills were originally learned from Liu the Masked Man."

"For my eyes, I referenced contact lenses, which came from the West, to conceal my gaze."

"As for the Qi, I used the Ghostly Shadow Movement technique to conceal myself, making you overlook my state."

Zuo Ruotong understood: "So it's Master Liu's legacy, no wonder."
