Borrowing a sword

Chapter 216 This realm, no more suppression!
Inside the main hall, everyone continued chatting for a while, based on the situation within the Origin Spirit Realm.

The current situation, in a sense, is in line with the Daoist ancestor's admonition, except for the addition of the variable of Chu Huaixu.

“The situation is indeed dire,” Elder Lu Pan said.

The first level already saw a Nascent Soul cultivator possessing another's body to rebuild their cultivation. So, what about the second level?

They are definitely the kind of people who possess another body and cultivate again!

In other words, the primordial spirit will also appear in the second layer.

"In that case," everyone's eyes fell on the young man.

Wouldn't that make him the only choice again?
Once again, it's all about me!
Is this young man the sole breadwinner?

Given this situation, no one would say anything if he used an extra fragment of the Primordial Origin.

In the end, Xiang Yan suggested, "Chu Huaixu, you'd better go into seclusion as soon as possible to refine this fragment of origin. Time is of the essence, otherwise things may change."

"Yes, Sect Master," he replied.

"But before that, I would like to go to the library to exchange for the second volume of the Daoist Canon."

He looked at the crowd and said loudly:
"This disciple's cultivation level is really too much to handle!"

After transmigrating, Chu Huaixu never dreamed that he would do so many things while only at the first level of cultivation.

Following the normal leveling pace for players, after such a long time, they should have reached level 20 or above by now.

Now, even Xu Ziqing has cultivated to the second level of the second realm, and the big ice block has already reached the sixth level!

According to Xiang Yan and others, refining the Origin Fragment is extremely time-consuming, taking anywhere from one to two months.

Chu Huaixu's level is too low; he probably won't be able to speed things up.

"After two months of seclusion, Big Ice Block will be at least at the Great Perfection of the Second Realm! He might even be at the Third Realm!" the dead fox thought to himself.

He didn't want his partner to always be the one to blame in this regard.

At this moment, he still has a large amount of experience points left to use!
In addition, he does need a suitable and safe environment for seclusion.

Because he still had mission rewards to redeem.

"This trip to the Origin Spirit Realm has been an incredibly fruitful one," Chu Huaixu thought to himself, feeling quite pleased.

In the end, it was Jiang Zhi who made the decision, allowing Chu Huaixu to go into seclusion at the Junzi Temple.

Li Chunsong will retrieve the cultivation manual for him later, and then take him directly to Junzi Temple.

"It is true that when low-level cultivators refine the fragments of origin, their own realm will also increase slightly," Xiang Yan explained.

Upon hearing this, Li Chunsong's eyes immediately lit up.

What a great bet!

Let's bet on how many levels he can break through!
The gambling addict quickly got up, then started rubbing his hands together, saying, "I'll go get the second volume of the Daoist Canon now."

After saying that, his figure disappeared, flying even faster than when he was chasing the evil cultivator!
As he flew, he rubbed his hands together faster and faster, his face turning bright red.

Actually, there are many things that are suitable for gambling recently.

But since this kid is about to enter the Origin Spirit Realm, everyone is under pressure and a gloomy atmosphere hangs over them, so even the gambling addict doesn't dare to mess around.

But today is undoubtedly a day worth celebrating!
"Open the market! Open the market for me!"

Li Chunsong flew back not long after, handed the jade slip to Chu Huaixu, and then urged him to go into seclusion, even more anxious than Jiang Zhi, that pressure monster.

Chu Huaixu: "???"

You want to gamble with my father again, huh?

He exchanged a glance with Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing, and finally got up and walked to the side of the large ice block.

He took out the six Xuan-level techniques he had just acquired from his storage token and handed them all to Han Shuangjiang.

“This was obtained for me by my junior grandmaster. I will be in seclusion for a while, so you and Xiao Xu can take a look first. If it suits you, practice it. I will give it to you when I come out of seclusion,” he said.

"Mm." Han Shuangjiang nodded.

After confirming their relationship as Daoist partners, she no longer refused as she had before, but silently remembered his kindness to her.

Unexpectedly, before leaving, Chu Huaixu gave her a deep look, which made her feel a little shy and her heart race in front of all the elders. She then openly and softly said:
"Wait for me at home."

This was Chu Huaixu's first time visiting the Taoist temple of the gentleman.

This is just a small Taoist temple, nothing special in appearance, except that there was once a young Taoist priest in the temple who later became a famous Taoist patriarch!

Li Chunsong found Chu Huaixu an empty room and gave him enough fasting pills.

"This room is equipped with a spirit-gathering array, making it the most suitable place for you to cultivate in seclusion," he explained.

"Yes, thank you, Sixth Elder."

"Then I'll be going now." He started rubbing his hands together like a fly.

Chu Huaixu cannot fly yet and cannot freely enter or leave the inner gate. He often needs to be carried by him, like a "personalized mount".

But who would have thought that the leader of Xuanhuang's mount was actually a fly at the seventh realm?

After entering the room, he sat down on the futon.

"Being able to cultivate within the Spirit Gathering Array every day is truly a luxury," he thought to himself.

This is practically a mansion in the cultivation world!
"Unfortunately, it's not very useful to me."

I, Chu Huaixu, have cultivated myself throughout my life, relying solely on my own efforts. Why would I need external objects like spirit-gathering arrays?
With this thought in mind, he opened his character panel.

After completing the main quest [Original Spirit Realm], 50 experience points will be credited to your account.

In addition, there is 1 free attribute point.

Since the spiritual fetus attribute cannot be increased, and his comprehension is currently sufficient, he only needed a brief consideration before resolutely increasing it to his physique!
His physical strength increased instantly. He clenched his fist slightly to feel it and felt incredibly powerful.

Immediately afterwards, he glanced at the character panel.

"There are 77 experience points left!"

Within the Origin Spirit Realm, he could become stronger simply by breathing, and every so often he would gain several hundred experience points.

Later, he meditated and cultivated inside, and the effect was far beyond what the mere spirit-gathering array in the room could compare to!

There, even he, who rarely practiced martial arts, couldn't help but seize every second.

At this moment, sitting inside the spirit-gathering array, he was thinking: "Practicing martial arts? Even a dog wouldn't practice!"

As for the Heavenly-level treasure chest rewarded by that mission, Chu Huaixu didn't plan to open it now.

"Let's refine the fragments of the Primordial Origin first."

"It should be a power independent of the [Spirit Embryo Attribute]. With the power of origin, the experience points I need to level up should decrease each time."

"That way it's more cost-effective."

He began to refine this most precious treasure in the world according to the method taught by Jiang Zhi!

Chu Huaixu first took out a drop of blood from his fingertip and dripped it onto a shard of the mirror.

Then, he began to circulate his spiritual energy, enveloping his entire body.

Time passed second by second, and a full half-incense stick's time had elapsed.

This primordial fragment suddenly began to melt rapidly.

A mysterious and vast aura merged entirely into that drop of blood.

Chu Huaixu used his spiritual power as a guide, opened his mouth, and swallowed the drop of his blood.

"[Ding! Refine the fragment of the Profound Yellow Origin?]" He heard the system notification.

Chu Huaixu directly selected "Yes".

The next moment, he felt as if his body was exploding!
An immensely powerful force surged through his limbs and bones in an instant.

Body cultivators are supposed to have their bodies containing spiritual energy, but now, this power has completely filled their physical bodies!
After they were filled, they headed towards the secret treasure of the spirit embryo.

He felt like his spiritual embryo was about to explode!

Damn, I'm going to burst!
This is not the original power at all, but merely the spiritual energy of heaven and earth carried within it.

The experience points in Chu Huaixu's character panel also began to soar.

It didn't take long to surpass the 80 mark!

"Damn it, if I don't upgrade soon, I feel like my body can't hold it anymore, it might really explode!"

He immediately took out the [Purple Hydrangea] and [Ruijin Spirit Grass] from his storage token.

Apart from the first realm of cultivation techniques, each subsequent realm of cultivation techniques requires the absorption of some rare and precious materials for support before cultivation.

Different exercises require different formulas.

The second level of the Daoist canon requires these two things.

Chu Huaixu chewed a few bites casually and then swallowed it whole.

"This is fucking awful!"

He wasn't afraid of pain, nor was he afraid that his meridians and other parts of his body would burst due to the surge of spiritual energy, since he could recover quickly anyway.

His main concern was that the spiritual embryo would be damaged, which would require the Mysterious Heaven Embryo Breathing Pill!
Chu Huaixu immediately calmed down and began to cultivate the Daoist Canon.

"Huh? The experience points required to level up have been reduced?"

"I haven't completely refined it yet."

"Did the system change the algorithm beforehand?"

He didn't care about anything else now, he leveled up directly and got himself to level 20 first!
As a result, the spiritual energy was still surging within the body, and it was simply not enough!
He leveled up two more times in one go, reaching level 22.

That feeling of being about to burst only made me feel a little better.

But not long after, he felt that he couldn't fit anymore; his body and spirit were filled up again.

He has now been promoted three ranks in a short period of time.

Don't forget, practicing the Daoist scriptures can be quite painful.

His skin split open instantly, tearing open and then quickly began to heal, repeating the cycle repeatedly.

Advancing three levels in one go is the limit of his current pain threshold; he won't feel much pain.

But if we go any higher...
"Damn it, so that's where they were waiting for me!" he cursed inwardly.

What's even more troublesome is that he used to choose the short pain over the long one, and simply let himself pass out from the pain.

But now that he is refining the power of origin, he must remain alert at all times!
This is nothing short of an immense ordeal! It requires tremendous willpower to endure!

They're all back. The incredibly familiar torment I felt when I first started practicing the "Sword Refining Technique" came rushing back!

But this guy also possesses the fearless sword intent.
"Fine! Then come on!" Chu Huaixu gritted his teeth inwardly.

Having suppressed his cultivation level for so long, he was already feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

Since that's the case, then promote me!

This level of mastery, I'm not going to suppress it anymore!
