Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 84 The storm is rising
"Tsk tsk. Boy, you actually gave the Holy Lotus Heart to my Ji family's younger generation to use. Are you still saying that you have no improper thoughts about her?"

In the mysterious space, a ball of light surrounded Ji Ruoyu's body lying on the jade table and said.

"Senior, please see if you can wake up your junior." Ye Xuan shook his head.

He explained the whole cause and effect first, and then brought Ji Ruoyu into this mysterious space, hoping that this mysterious existence who claimed to be the ancestor of the Ji family could save Ji Ruoyu.

"Nonsense! With my great supernatural powers that reach all heights and into the earth, of course I can save my descendants. Do you know that this alien space was created by this old ancestor using the great power of space!" The ball of light turned into the shadow of an old man, who looked quite like an immortal. He spoke arrogantly in front of Lin Hao.

"Then you should save him."

"I will save him. Of course I will. Even without you telling me, I will not let such an outstanding descendant of our Ji family die. But... not now."

"When was that?"

“Ahem…” The old man coughed dryly and said awkwardly, “I have just woken up, and my strength is less than one ten-thousandth of what it used to be. When my strength recovers to one percent, I will try to save her.”

"It is true. Senior Xu is unable to wake Ruoyu up now." Ye Xuan sighed and shook his head.

He had some guesses before, how could the Ji family ancestor stay in this small space without even a physical body. And why could the crescent crystal absorb his own space energy?

Now everything is clear. The old ancestor of the Ji family is obviously in a very bad condition. As for his own spatial energy, it was not sucked away by Crescent Moon, but by this old ancestor.

If Ye Xuan felt well, this old ancestor should be just a remnant soul that was about to dissipate. If he had not absorbed his own spatial energy, he might not be in such a bad state. He might not even have the strength to speak.

Ye Xuan is no longer a novice who knows nothing about martial arts. In order to practice the secret method of spiritual power, he also read some books about the soul. When he saw the residual soul light ball of the ancestor of the Ji family, he guessed something.

"Ahem, kid, don't call me like that..." Xukongzi felt a little embarrassed and sighed... Senior Xu, Senior Xu, he didn't know if he was called like that too many times in the past, which led to his current state.

"Then I'll call you Senior Shi..." Ye Xuan was slightly startled, "Or the real Senior Shi?"

"It's a shocking history, a shocking history! It's not real shit, you little kid, you must not be rude to the ancestor!"

Xukongzi was speechless, and his two long white beards were fluttering.

He glared at Ye Xuan. The nickname that those bastards had given him when they teased him was actually brought out by this kid.

"Uh, Senior Kong, Senior Kongzi... I heard it wrong before..." Ye Xuan felt a little embarrassed.

"Alright, kid. Just leave Ruoyu here. In this space created by this ancestor, her body will not decay within ten years."

Xukongzi shook his head. "Also, if you have any treasures that can replenish the soul, such as the Nine-Colored Holy Lotus Heart, give me one. It may help restore my soul power to 1%."

Ye Xuan smiled bitterly, "I only have a lotus heart of the Nine-Colored Sacred Lotus, which I have already given to your junior. However, I still have some lotus petals of the Nine-Colored Sacred Lotus. I wonder if they can be of any use to you, senior?"

Xukongzi rolled his eyes and said, "The holy lotus petals are indeed useful for soul power, but they are highly poisonous. Take them. With my strength, I can still refine the poison."

Ye Xuan was slightly startled. Xuan Xing had said that the holy poison of the Nine-Colored Holy Lotus was something that even a Martial Emperor would not dare to try easily. This Xukongzi actually wanted to refine the poison in the state of a remnant soul. What was his cultivation level and what kind of existence was he in the past?
Ye Xuan thought about it, and kept two lotus petals for himself, and gave the rest to Xu Kongzi. But he said: "Senior, I will give you the treasure to restore your soul power, so will you also teach me some of my skills?"

Seven lotus petals floated around Xukongzi's body. When he heard Ye Xuan's words, he curled his lips and said, "You little bastard, you dared to flirt with my Ji family's daughter and almost killed her. How dare you ask me for the secret?"

Xukongzi said, with his hands behind his back, proudly saying, "Let me tell you, this ancestor has many mysterious and powerful skills, but I will not pass them on to you. You are not related to me, why should I pass on the skills to you."

"If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. Judging from the way you are doing now, you don't have any powerful secret skills." Ye Xuan muttered, rushed into the light gate, and disappeared in this space.

Ye Xuan could see that although this Xukongzi was the ancestor of the Ji family and had lived for countless years, he was just an old eccentric and very unreliable.

However, placing Ji Ruoyu in that space did save Ye Xuan a lot of trouble.

At least Ye Xuan doesn’t have to take Ji Ruoyu with him wherever he goes.

And if he enters the secret realm trial, Ye Xuan cannot leave Ji Ruoyu in the sect. With Ji Ruoyu's beauty, not to mention the disciples of Qingyun Valley, even many deacons and elders are attracted to her!

In the rest room of attic No. 5, a space portal about ten feet wide was torn open in the air. Ye Xuan jumped out of the portal, and then the portal quickly shrank and disappeared, and the space in the air returned to normal.

Ye Xuan picked up the crescent pendant on the ground. He found that he had entered that space, but the crescent pendant could not enter.

"Could it be that that space was created by Xukongzi using this crescent gem?" Ye Xuan was curious.

He was extremely eager for the secret method of space. The power of space and time were both mysterious powers between heaven and earth. According to the "Complete Record of Tianwu Martial Souls", there was only one space-based martial artist in a million, and only one time-based martial artist in ten million. In other words, there might not be one space-based martial artist in a million martial artists, and there would be no time-based martial artist in ten million martial artists.

Regardless of his personality, the space technique of 'Xukongzi' is absolutely amazing. He can even create space by himself. He is really powerful, otherwise he would not be called 'Xukongzi'.

"Take your time. After waking up Ji Ruoyu, use Junior Sister to restrain the old guy."

Ye Xuan smiled slightly. This Xukongzi had benefited from him, but he refused to pay. How could he just let it go like this? How could he not get some space techniques from Xukongzi?
Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on the bed and once again practiced the Ancient Devouring Technique to recover his true energy and heal his injuries.

In this way, Ye Xuan spent every day in meditation and breathing. During the time when he stayed indoors, the entire Xuanwu Kingdom was in turmoil, and the outstanding disciples of the five major sects were fully preparing for the secret realm trial.
