Su Chen smiled awkwardly. Even though he possessed Zhang Yang's memories and was extremely skilled in various operations, the physical strain was still real.

Especially now, with the upper limit of the universe locked at the Nascent Soul stage, Su Chen has to take a roundabout approach to many things, which further exacerbates his energy consumption.

Su Chen had laid a very solid foundation for He Xingyao, and after leaving the protection of the crystal coffin, she adapted to this world in a short time.

However, the scene looked a little awkward when the three women were together.

Even though they had known each other for a long time, there was still a crystal coffin between them.

At this moment, such close contact was still a little difficult for them to adapt to.

However, the awkward moment was short-lived, and the three of them quickly found a suitable way to get along.

Of course, Su Chen doesn't need to join.

As for Su Chen, he had been studying the little white fox in front of him.

This little guy has been acting a bit strange ever since he appeared. He doesn't look like an ordinary fox at all, but no matter how he examines him, he can't find anything more.

"When will you help me restore my physical body?" Lu Wuyai stood in front of Su Chen, his expression showing a hint of urgency.

He increasingly felt that his soul form had many inconveniences. Besides, even He Xingyao had awakened, so there was no need for him to continue existing as a spirit, right?

"Let me rest for a while, your matter isn't urgent."

"How can you not be in a hurry? I'm extremely anxious!" Lu Wuyai hurriedly shouted.

Who knows how long this drags on?

The world rift could appear at any time, and if extraterrestrial creatures attack again, there will be even less time.

If I don't strike while the iron is hot and restore my physical body, who knows how long it will take.

"Here's what we'll do. First, follow these steps to revive your physical body. Once you're done, I'll send you back."

Su Chen quickly wrote down a list, which contained all the ways to revive the physical body.

If he were to handle this personally, it would be resolved much faster.

However, Su Chen had more important things to do.

"Are you sure these will work? Something doesn't look right to me. Can you even find these medicinal herbs?"

Lu Wuyai kept talking nonstop, like pouring out beans. Su Chen was thoroughly annoyed by what he heard.

So they simply called Jin Bufan over and had him taken away.

After Lu Wuyai left the courtyard, the relationship between the three women became much more harmonious.

Of course, this is based on the fact that He Xingyao often goes into seclusion.

"What's the situation now?"

Su Chen peeked into He Xingyao's room.

“Nothing’s wrong. He’s still in seclusion, so we haven’t been communicating much. But it’s not like before, when he couldn’t say a word,” Jiang Li said quickly.

"Between you and her..." Hua Jingyun looked at Su Chen curiously.

"The process is similar to yours, I guess it will take some time to get used to it." Su Chen scratched his head.

The matter of He Xingyao hasn't been resolved yet, and now there's another nine-tailed fox demon involved.

Su Chen always felt that Xi Meng might not have died of old age as he had imagined.

The little white fox in the yard might be Xi Meng.

Of course, there is no evidence to support any of this; it is all just Su Chen's conjecture.

"You all stay here, I have some things to take care of. If any problems arise in other areas, I'll leave them to you to handle."

"Where are you going?" Hua Jingyun pressed.

The entire world is now under their control. Unless the world's rifts increase and extraterrestrial beings enter, it's almost impossible for any problems to arise.

"Nanlang".

Those fox statues must be suppressing things left behind by Zhang Yang more than 5,000 years ago.

It was also something he left behind in the game.

If he can get in, Su Chen will be able to get the things he hid for himself in the game.

"The previously designated restricted area?" Jiang Li immediately thought of the place they had been searching for.

"Correct."

"You've come up with a way to get in?" Hua Jingyun looked at Su Chen in surprise.

Previously, there were guardians outside, and it took them a lot of effort to find the entrance.

"Give it a try. It's easier for me to move around by myself. If anything goes wrong, I can slip out more easily."

Su Chen gave a brief explanation, since he couldn't reveal that he had left a back door inside the passage beforehand.

Jiang Li and Hua Jingyun asked a few more questions before letting Su Chen leave.

As for the little white fox that Su Chen casually took away, the two women didn't pay much attention to it. After all, only the little guy was most sensitive to those fox statues.

Only the little white fox could accurately locate those statues.

Su Chen arrived at Nanlang territory in the shortest possible time. The statue, originally used as a disguise to conceal the entrance, now shone brightly in Su Chen's eyes, like a beacon in the darkness.

"Why are you here again?"

The moment Su Chen appeared at the entrance of the passage, the guardian sensed his presence.

“You have already sworn a blood oath not to come in through the passage, so you should go back.”

To force one through the passage, one would need at least the Perfected Integration Realm. Currently, the upper limit of the world is limited to the Nascent Soul stage. Even if Su Chen unleashed his full power, it would be impossible for him to break through the barrier of the Demon Realm.

"I know I can't use the passageway, but it didn't say I can't use other areas."

Holding the little white fox, Su Chen walked directly into the passage in front of the guardian.

The guardian was about to kick the man out when he realized that there was no trace of Su Chen inside the passage.

Just as he said, he moved to another position!

"There's only one passage; how could there be other passages?"

The guardian was completely dumbfounded. Over the years, there had only been this one passage in and out of the demon realm, and he had already figured it out. How could there be any other way?

"He really went in? Isn't he afraid of dying?!"

The guardian sensed the changes within the demon realm. When Su Chen, carrying the little white fox, stepped onto the demon realm's ground, the guardian already knew.

Before Su Chen could move, the guardian blocked his way.

"Speak your mind. If you have any questions, you can ask them now."

Su Chen was quite proactive; at first glance, one might think he was the one guarding the town.

"Get out of here right now."

“You have the means to drive them away.” Su Chen ignored him.

As a guardian, one possesses the power to repel intruders. The fact that he has not yet been driven away means that the guardian has no way to drive him away.

"Aren't you afraid I'll mobilize the demon race and wipe you out?"

"If you wanted to do it, you would have done it already. Why would you need to ask me?"

Su Chen simply smiled and quickly approached the direction he remembered.

The strength of the demon race within the demon realm also seems to be suppressed.

As the world's origin declines, the demon realm, which is dependent on the outside of the main world, is also unable to avoid decline.

True powerhouses either seal themselves away to escape the limitations of heaven and earth, or they can only gradually weaken and die over the long years.

"What exactly did you do? Why are so many of the methods used by the demon realm completely ineffective against you?" The guardian had many questions in his mind.

The moment Su Chen entered the demon realm, he was already trying to drive people away.

However, the methods he used had absolutely no effect on Su Chen.

Su Chen felt as if he had come home. Even though he had only just entered the demon realm, his familiarity with everything here was no less than that of the demons who had lived here all their lives.

"Didn't you already guess some of it?"

Su Chen smiled and stroked the little white fox in his arms a few times.

He had just conducted a special test, and the little white fox did not possess any nine-tailed fox demon bloodline. Perhaps he had simply been overthinking things before.

"What's your relationship with that guy surnamed Zhang?"

The guardian's direct statement surprised Su Chen somewhat.

Over five thousand years, there must have been several generations of guardians, yet Zhang Yang's name has been remembered for so long.

"It's nothing, I just know a little about it."

"A little knowledge? You know that much?"

The guardian looked at Su Chen and skillfully opened some of the restrictions of the demon realm. No matter how he looked at it, something seemed off.

He did want to subdue Su Chen by force. But the Demon King had set a rule.

Outside the passage, the guardians have the right to refuse any human entry into the demon realm.

However, once inside the demon realm, the guardians can only use the previously established methods to drive them away.

Under normal circumstances, even the most powerful demons would not be able to withstand the guardians' methods of expelling them.

Because it utilizes the power of the entire demon realm to directly exclude others. It's not something that an individual's power can withstand.

Looking at Su Chen now, he seemed to be completely unaffected.

Not only did he remain completely still in the demon realm, but even the little white fox in his arms was beyond the guardian's ability to do anything about.

"Think what you want. I'm just coming in to find something, I'll leave as soon as I get it."

Su Chen was unaware of the rules Xi Meng had set for the subsequent guardians. He only knew one thing: the magical artifacts left behind from back then still had an effect to this day.

"Thank you for the treat, I've received my item~"

Su Chen flashed the magical artifact in his hand.
