Martial Uncle Really Is So Young and Handsome
Lu Ping looked at Little C, his eyes twitching.
The haughty winged maid has even appeared! Little C, you're quite energetic!
Even Lu Ping, Nascent Soul Realm Myriad Spirits Valley's grand formation seriously.
Now that he's in the Middle Spirit Transformation Stage, breaking an array is a piece of cake for him.
Moreover, breaking the formation with ease also serves as a warning to Qingyu.
Lu Ping chose B.
[You chose B.]
[Before Qinghe could finish speaking, you raised your right hand and pointed it at the yellow light screen in front of you.]
[Reverse Engineering, in effect.]
[The Artisan Spirit is now in effect.]
[Multiskilling, effective.]
[...]
[In your Nascent Soul Late Stage, it took you an hour to break through these thirty-six Restrictions.]
[Now that your mastery of Formation Dao formations has advanced further, and you have the foundation of Middle Spirit Transformation Stage cultivator, with a gentle release of Spiritual Power from your fingertips, that layer of light silently cracks open.]
You stepped inside without even stopping.
[Qingyu is already at the Transformation Perfection; when the fight begins, you must also give it your all.]
[The concealment provided by this Formless Myriad-Breath Cloak is likely to fail.]
[You might as well dispel the Formless Myriad-Breath Cloak.]
[The ancient and majestic Zhu Wanshan vanished, replaced by a handsome young man in his early twenties, dressed in Flowing Cloud Robe gold threads.]
[Qinghe was following behind, paused when she saw your true face.]
[She stared blankly at your profile, her fingers twitching slightly inside her sleeve, but instead of panic, her eyes showed relief, as if confirming a suspicion she had harbored.]
[Qinghe even murmured to herself, "My martial uncle is indeed so young and handsome..."]
[You are a Nascent Spirit Transformation; no matter how softly Qinghe speaks, it cannot escape your ears.]
[You were walking ahead, and when you heard that, you almost tripped and fell.]
[It seems I haven't assigned enough homework.]
[You move forward, your hand forming a subtle Law Seals.]
[The Maze Formation, Binding Formation, and Killing Formations along the way were wiped out by you before you could even activate them.]
[In less than a quarter of an hour, you traversed the entire Forbidden Ground and stopped in front of the Ancestral Spirit Cave.]
You turned around, looked at Qinghe who had followed you, and pointed to the open space in front of the door.
"Sit down here, release the suppression, and trigger your Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation."
Qinghe looked up at the massive bronze gate, engraved with Demon Race totems, and frowned slightly.
The closer she got to the cave, the more uneasy she felt, as if an invisible force was constantly pulling her from behind the door.
"Uncle-Master, the one behind the door..."
[Qinghe turned to look at you, a hint of nervousness in her voice.]
"If I were to break through to the next realm Core Formation here, I fear it would only lead to disaster."
[Options pop up.]
[A: Reassure her gently, telling her that you have everything under control and she doesn't need to be afraid.]
[B: Hmph, a mere Transformation, easily tossed aside...]
[C: You pull out a "Personal Accident Insurance Contract for High-Risk Tribulation Sites" and shove it in Qinghe's face: "What are you afraid of! Your master has already insured you for 32 million Spirit Stones in accidental injury insurance, and I'm the beneficiary. You can rest assured and get struck without worry. If anything happens, your master will pay for it!"]
Lu Ping glanced at Little C. If she really said it out loud, the resentment Qinghe had accumulated over the past eight years would probably break through the sky on the spot, directly bypassing the Golden Core Stage and becoming a vengeful spirit.
Little B, Qingyu still has a use.
How could we just throw away such a powerful, free henchman?
Lu Ping chose A.
[You chose A.]
[You looked at Qinghe's tense face and spoke calmly,]
"Trouble will come sooner or later; there's no escaping it."
"Rather than waiting for it to suddenly attack when our martial uncle isn't around, let's settle this old score today in front of him."
You raised your hand and patted her on the shoulder.
"Focus on forming your core. Even if the sky falls, your uncle will hold it up for you."
Looking at your composed expression, Qinghe's unease gradually subsided.
[She didn't hesitate any longer, nor did she ask why you had changed your appearance. She simply took three steps back and bowed respectfully to you.]
"Qinghe understands."
[As soon as she finished speaking, she sat cross-legged on the open ground three zhang away from the bronze gate and closed her eyes.]
[The "Azure Origin Spirit-Guiding True Art" is operating at full power.]
A pillar of azure Spiritual Qi shot up from the top of her head, piercing the clouds!
[You retreated to a cliff several miles away, hands behind your back, and looked up at the sky.]
[The clear sky darkened in an instant, as heavy, ominous clouds gathered from all directions, with silvery lightning bolts churning deep within them.]
[The first bolt of lightning struck.]
[The Azure Nether Rings on Qinghe's wrist flew up and hovered above her head, its azure light dissipating most of the lightning.]
[Over the past eight years, you've forced her to hone her skills day and night, building an incredibly solid foundation.]
[She casually tossed out a handful of Formation Flags, with a Golden Core puppet beside her to absorb the remaining force.]
[She transformed what was originally a perilous Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation into something remarkably effortless.]
[Three hours passed, and the last bolt of lightning dissipated.]
A flawless Golden Core took shape within Qinghe's Qi Sea.
[You stepped down from the cliff and came to stand before Qinghe.]
[Qinghe's hair was slightly disheveled, but her breathing was remarkably steady.]
She opened her eyes, looked up at you, and her eyes sparkled with joy.
"Uncle-Master, I have successfully completed my mission."
[You looked at her, not mentioning the Core Formation, but instead asked a question.]
"Qinghe, do you believe your martial uncle?"
Qinghe nodded vigorously without the slightest hesitation.
"Qinghe naturally trusts her martial uncle the most."
[As soon as she finished speaking, an ancient blue rune suddenly lit up between her brows.]
[That's Fate Contract planted by the Azure Feather Luan!]
[The aura of Half-Step Heavenly Demon poured out from the crack in the Ancestral Spirit Cave, echoing the rune between Qinghe's brows.]
[In her previous life at Returning to Truth Peak, when this Fate Contract activated, it directly transported Qinghe to Myriad Spirits Valley.]
[Since the person was already sitting at the entrance of the Ancestral Spirit Cave, Qingyu naturally saved the effort of grabbing them from afar, and simply waited to absorb and integrate them within his Sea of Consciousness.]
[You watched this scene calmly, simply opening your mouth and uttering four words.]
I’ll Make Three Points.
[I’ll Make Three Points, and they will take effect.]
[Qinghe's eyes, which had just begun to gleam with a strange light, immediately went blank, and she froze on the spot.]
[Options pop up.]
[A: Seize the opportunity while she's weakened, and use a single Star River Myriad Blades attack to shred the Ancestral Spirit Cave along with the Azure Feather Luan's true form.]
[B: His Primordial Spirit left his body and directly entered Qinghe's Sea of Consciousness, giving that ancient bird a small shock!]
[C: You take out your phone and scan the rune between Qinghe's eyebrows: "Beep! Illegal pop-up ad plugin 'Azure Feather Ancestor v1.0' detected. Do you want to spend 3.2 million Spirit Stones to purchase Lord Lu's exclusive 360 Antivirus membership for one-click removal?"]
