While I was in Mondstadt, I never imagined becoming a god.

This matter has truly exceeded my expectations.

This also makes his promises at Bubulu seem rather petty.

A powerhouse of this caliber would never be content to be a private bodyguard.

"With such power, it's no wonder they have the confidence to use the Jade Pavilion as leverage to do a big deal with me."

She walked to the window and looked again toward the abyss of strata rock.

The night breeze lifted her long hair, and the moonlight cast a silvery glow on her face.

After the information was completed, Xu Chuan's importance in her heart quietly increased significantly.

……

White Horse Travels Against the Tide

When Xu Chuan asked Yan Fei to take him back to his residence, it was already late at night.

To be honest, my injuries have almost healed.

There's no point in staying at Bubulu anymore.

The way Bai Shu looked at me probably showed that he had already noticed my extraordinary recovery ability.

He didn't want to be used as a guinea pig for observation.

Pushing open the door and stepping inside, the room was still furnished simply.

Yan Fei had already gone to Bubulu to deliver the message, leaving him alone in the room.

Xu Chuan closed the door, and golden light seeped out from his body, covering the walls, doors, and windows of the room with a barely perceptible film of light.

It can block sound, block the view, and block the breath.

It can be said that there is still much room for improvement in his development of the Golden Light Mantra.

After everything was in place, he took out two items.

A phantom soul, a soul enveloped in golden light.

The pain and struggle on his face had faded considerably.

Another piece of dark purple flesh, also enveloped in golden light, floated on the other side.

The flesh and blood pulsated slightly with some unseen rhythm, like an independent heart.

The soul of "Extreme Evil Rider".

The flesh and blood of the Star-Devouring Whale.

Xu Chuan looked at the two items and remained silent for a moment.

An immortal curse rooted deep within the soul, which forcibly wields a fraction of the Devouring Whale's power of devouring through the curse.

This method of acquiring power is certainly feasible.

But the fact that "Extreme Evil Rider" ended up in that state clearly shows that he was controlled by power, rather than him controlling power.

Now that the flesh and blood have been stripped away, all those complex forces have also been eliminated.

In addition, there's the method of nurturing spirits by binding and commanding them...

Perhaps, it can bring him back to his senses.

He might become one of my top generals in the future.

Xu Chuan was eager to see what kind of expression the Extreme Evil Rider would have when he saw his friend being controlled by him.

Xu Chuan shifted his gaze from the soul to the flesh and blood of the Star-Devouring Whale.

This is the real good stuff.

He reached out, and golden threads probed into his flesh, sensing the power contained within.

An extremely pure and primal power of devouring, like a sleeping beast, quiet yet dangerous.

Xu Chuan was preparing to delve deeper into the study to see if he could use this devouring power elsewhere.

If we're going to get closer, let's see if we can help Xiao clear away the karmic obstacles caused by the remnants of the demon god.

If all else fails, then leave it to Aberdo.

Suddenly, a white figure appeared silently in the corner of the room.

Xu Chuan paused, and the golden light instantly contracted, wrapping the two items tightly.

The golden light transformed into a sharp spear and shot backward.

Whoosh!Whoosh!

Moonlight streamed in through the window, falling on the white figure.

Her face was so exquisitely beautiful that it seemed unreal, and her brows exuded a sense of detachment from the world.

"Don't be nervous," the girl said softly, her voice like the wind rustling through a bamboo forest. "I just came to take a look."

Skirk did not move at all, the space behind her disappeared, and her slender, jade-like hand was now gripping the golden spear.

Clearly, Xu Chuan's sudden attack was easily intercepted by her.

The girl's gaze passed over him and landed on the mass of flesh and blood of the Star-Devouring Whale behind him, which was enveloped in golden light, lingering for a moment.

Then she looked away and looked at Xu Chuan.

"Interesting. So it's because of the flesh and blood of the Star-Devouring Whale. No wonder it has the power to devour."

Chapter 117 A Crazy Act

As the golden light faded, the room became slightly darker.

Moonlight streamed in through the window, casting a thin layer of silvery white light on the floor.

Xu Chuan saw the person's face clearly, his tense back relaxed, and the golden light flowing from his fingertips also subsided.

"You scared me." He leaned back in his chair and exhaled. "I thought it was..."

"What is it?"

Silky crossed her arms and tilted her head.

Her long, pale purple hair cascaded down her shoulders, bathed in moonlight that gave it a cool, ethereal glow.

There was a hint of curiosity in her tone.

Twice now, Xu Chuan has noticed his presence both times.

The secret technique for concealing one's aura seemed to have lost its effectiveness on this guy.

Xu Chuan used the golden light to pull over a chair, gesturing for her to sit.

“It’s nothing.” He paused for a moment. “It’s someone I’ve never met before; you probably don’t know him.”

No wonder he was once bitten by a snake and is now afraid of ropes for ten years.

Since being ambushed by the "Extreme Rider" last time, he has become much more cautious.

Those who wield the power of the abyss and can open spatial portals everywhere are not simple characters.

If the other party has ill intentions, it's always right to strike first.

Moreover, he remembered very clearly that when Sora first met Ying, he fled as if he were escaping through a teleportation portal.

For a moment, he thought they were just following the scent and had come to snatch the core of the first tiller.

Silky sat down opposite him, her gaze falling on the mass of flesh and blood of the Star-Devouring Whale wrapped in golden light behind Xu Chuan. She paused for two seconds, then looked away.

Xu Chuan did not collect the flesh and blood of the Star-Devouring Whale.

He manipulated the golden light and handed the dark purple object to Skykirk.

But after examining it closely for a few moments, she returned it to Xu Chuan.

Furthermore, the Heavenly Nail Crystal that had been borrowed earlier was also handed over.

"By the way, how did you find me?"

He had only decided to return to the White Horse Inn on a whim, so Skirk should not know that he was here.

Could it be that this girl is constantly monitoring his movements?

No, no, this doesn't match the image of the aloof Silk Kirk I had in mind.

“I left a little mark,” Skylark said, “so I can find you easily.”

"mark?"

Xu Chuan frowned.

He has always been very sensitive to external forces imposed on him.

Even if it were a trick by Skirk, he was confident he could detect it immediately.

“Yes.” Skylar raised her chin and pointed to the wheelchair in the corner. “Right in your wheelchair.”

"If you mind, I'll wipe it off right now."

As she finished speaking, a dark light flashed across her fingertips.

On the edge of the wheelchair, a tiny mark flashed by, like a star extinguished in the night sky.

Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment.

Good heavens, is this really the same Skylark I know?

Where did your attitude towards the young master go?

Could you please restore it?

Xu Chuan opened his mouth, but swallowed the words back.

I have this subtle feeling that I'm being followed.

"I'm here to ask you for a favor," Skyker said, getting straight to the point.

Xu Chuan looked up and met those violet vertical pupils, and he caught a strange feeling in them.

That was something that rarely appeared on Silky's face.

There seemed to be a moment of hesitation, but she quickly overpowered him.

"The power of that Heavenly Nail Crystal is very resistant to my control."

Silky's voice returned to its usual calm, "I need your help to activate it."

It is indeed very difficult to reconcile the power of the abyss with the power of the natural order.

Moreover, the will contained within the power of the Sky Nail Crystal is not something that can be easily worn down.

However, Xu Chuan agreed very readily.

"I can help you, but it's not a good place to work out here. Shall we find a quieter spot outside?"

“No need,” Skykirk stood up. “Come with me.”

She waved her hand casually.

The air in front of me felt as if it had been sliced ​​open by a sharp blade, with cracks splitting open from the middle and jagged edges, like shredded cloth.

A dark, deep light shone from the crack, as if an abyss was staring at him.

“Follow me.” Skykirk stepped into the crevice. “Inside, it doesn’t matter how much noise we make.”

Xu Chuan manipulated the golden light to reach out, taking several items from the table with him. Following behind Silky, he stepped into the rift without hesitation.

The moment I passed through the spatial passage, the view suddenly opened up before me.

The space was vast, with gray-black rock beneath your feet and a towering dome overhead. There was no sky, no clouds, only endless darkness spreading in the distance.

Unlike the cave within the pot of He Chen Ge Hu, this place is more like an abyss.

There was no comfort or ease, only a heavy sense of oppression.

“The crystal contains a great deal of power.” Skork turned around. “But I can’t control it, so you’ll have to do it.”

"You want to... channel this power into your body?"
