Courtyard House: My Time Travel is a Bit Too Strong

Not only this mansion, but the buildings and pillars across the entire continent are mostly in a Western style; occasionally, one can see soul tools humming and operating, as if one were in a modern city.

Yet, this place remains the old world, where iron hooves trample the earth and royal power is absolute.

At this moment, Lin Quan turned around and looked at Zhu Zhuqing: "Zhuqing, first awaken Xue Ru's soul."

"Okay." She answered readily, and with a flick of her wrist, six lustrous soul stones floated in her palm.

With a light touch of the fingertip to the ground, a six-pointed star array instantly took shape, its light patterns flowing, awaiting unsealing.

"Sister Xue Ru, come in."

Chen Xueru took a deep breath, her smile brimming with anticipation, and stepped into the center of the formation.

Lin Quan, Qiao Jingjing, and the others all focused their attention—who wouldn't be eager to witness this beginning of transformation?

Zhu Zhuqing no longer hesitated, her true energy at her fingertips like a sword, swiftly penetrating into the six stones!

In an instant, golden light exploded, like sparks spreading across a prairie fire, intense yet not scorching—

In the blink of an eye, the entire magic array was gently swallowed by the warm golden light.

In an instant, golden light burst forth, like molten gold pouring down, instantly solidifying into a dazzling dome that completely enveloped Chen Xueru.

The vast golden light did not stop, but rather seeped into her skin, bones, and meridians like a living thing, quietly sinking into her limbs and bones.

Chen Xueru felt a warm and powerful sensation rising from her dantian, like spring water flowing over frozen earth, slowly coursing through her entire body...

My heart skipped a beat, as if a seed that had slumbered for millennia was gently cracking open deep within my veins—

hum!

The golden light suddenly contracted and disappeared entirely into her brow.

Almost simultaneously, a faint, ethereal yet imposing phantom appeared behind her!

"really……"

All eyes turned to Chen Xueru, their pupils contracted, and their expressions changed instantly—

It wasn't shock, it wasn't surprise, but rather a sense of understanding and certainty, as if everything had settled down.

Lin Quan, Zhu Zhuqing, Qiao Jingjing... along with Li Hanyi and the others, all had a slight smile on their lips, and a glint of anticipation flashed in their eyes.

Looking closer—

The creature standing behind Chen Xueru was not an ordinary beast, but a spirit fox with a body as white as fresh snow and a tail trailing nine brilliant arcs of light!

Its fur resembled moonlight, its eyes were like fallen stars, and every sway of its tail created subtle ripples in the air.

Nine-tailed fox!

Also known as the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox!

Even before her martial spirit manifested, everyone had already secretly speculated:

Chen Xueru's sparkling eyes, her naturally graceful movements, and the captivating supernatural ability she possessed when she awakened...

She's clearly a fox spirit reincarnated!

To everyone's surprise, it really was a fox—

Or the supreme ancestral spirit of the fox clan!

As the martial spirit awakened, the entire arena fell silent for a moment, followed by an uncontrollable gasp.

Before the exclamation could even finish, Lin Quan, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others had already instinctively taken a half step back, their shoulders and backs slightly tense, and their breathing a little labored.

It should be noted that even if Chen Xueru did not deliberately activate it, her transformed body after the crystal core cleansing gave her a captivating charm with every smile and glance.

If one's innate talent is even slightly activated, both men and women will find it difficult to escape a slight tremor in their hearts—

Even someone as resolute as Qiao Jingjing, or as cold and aloof as Li Hanyi, felt their fingertips tremble and their ears warm at the unintentional aura she exuded.

Now that the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox has descended upon the world, its innate allure has suddenly increased several times over!

Even Lin Quan felt a slight ripple in his heart; the moment he relaxed, his thoughts were as if entangled by spider silk.

The crowd retreated hastily, a primal instinct for self-preservation!

"Xue Ru, quickly retract your martial spirit!" Lin Quan's voice was steady, yet carried an urgent tone that left no room for hesitation.

"Huh? Oh...oh!"

Chen Xueru suddenly came to her senses, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she quickly followed Zhu Zhuqing's hand gestures to concentrate.

In less than three breaths, the nine-tailed phantom receded like the tide and quietly disappeared into her body.

"call……"

As soon as he calmed down, the pressure vanished.

Although she is still stunningly beautiful, with a natural allure in her eyes and brows, she is no longer aggressive.

Lin Quan and the others exchanged glances and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xueru, from now on you must always keep your aura contained and not let it leak out." Lin Quan's tone was gentle, but every word was clear.

"Yes, yes, yes, my husband is absolutely right!"

"My sister's natural charm is so captivating, we were almost overwhelmed by it..."

Amid the teasing of the women, Qiao Jingjing's ears turned red, Li Hanyi turned her face away, and even Zhu Zhuqing lowered her eyes and coughed lightly.

Chen Xueru lowered her head shyly, twisting the corner of her sleeve with her fingertips, and repeatedly replied, "Don't worry, I will definitely tame it as soon as possible!"

She had previously mastered the basics of the "Formless Divine Skill," achieving perfect harmony of breath and complete control over its release.

This loss of control was purely due to the Nine-Tailed Martial Soul's initial awakening; its spirituality was too strong and it was difficult to tame in a short time.

With her peak innate foundation, she could easily take control in just half a day of meditation.

She was now sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, focused, her fingertips shimmering with a faint light as she carefully combed through the still restless fox shadow power.

Lin Quan's gaze shifted to Zhu Zhuqing's face: "How has the situation been these past few days?"

Zhu Zhuqing understood and, without any concealment, recounted in detail what she had encountered and observed in recent days.

As for that old poisoner, he guarded a mountain of treasures but failed to recognize their value, which is truly a pity.

The rare treasures of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire were all swept away by Lin Quan and his companions.

However, it was precisely because Lin Quan and others were stationed here that the hidden injuries and poisons that had accumulated in the bodies of the old poison master and his grandson for many years were completely eradicated and eliminated.

Zhu Zhuqing's recent needs for various supplies, medicinal herbs, and spiritual materials have all been smoothly met thanks to the assistance of this Poison Douluo. Even if it weren't for the fact that a Title Douluo personally spoke up, his mere name alone would be enough to awe all across the entire Martial Soul Continent!

Speaking solely of Zhu Zhuqing herself—she had already condensed seven soul rings and steadily stepped into the Soul Saint realm.

Looking across this vast and boundless world of martial spirits, she can be considered a backbone, capable of holding down the fort. If no titled powerhouse intervenes, the most frequently appearing and active figures right now are the core forces of Soul Douluos, Soul Saints, and Soul Emperors.

"Sister Jingjing has been buying quite a lot of things lately, thanks to Poison Douluo giving us advance notice..."

"Ordering goods from trading companies is so much easier than when I was in Soto..."

"Whatever supplies you need, just send a message to the Chamber of Commerce, and they'll be delivered to your door immediately..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly paused, as if remembering something important, and then quickly added:

"By the way, the Poison Douluo grandfather and grandson's martial souls have now both transformed into genuine true dragon martial souls!"

"Not only that, this Poison Douluo's cultivation level has quietly jumped to level ninety-six!"

Lin Quan didn't even flinch when he heard this.

What he left to his grandfather and grandson were two Immortal-grade Earth Dragon Golden Melons and a ten-thousand-year-old Dragon Blood Grass. If such a foundation couldn't support a Martial Soul Nirvana, that would be truly rare!

As for the old poison master breaking through to level 96, it was already within Lin Quan's expectations.

This person was originally exceptionally talented; otherwise, he would have been devoured by the poison long ago and never achieved a title. Now, the poison no longer harms him but instead aids his cultivation—those deadly toxins have all been transformed into a fiery furnace for tempering his soul power!
