Azure Sea Immortal Sect.

"Uncle Sect Master, the monitoring array has been touched again."

Internal Affairs Elder emergency report, "This time, a wide range of Spiritual Energy Tide was also detected, and it is suspected that Nascent Soul True Lord is fighting."

Iron Fan True Monarch looked calm. "Destroy the monitoring records and don't reveal even a single word."

He had already roughly guessed what was going on.

It was only detected yesterday that Golden Core cultivator broke into the forbidden area, and tonight happens to be the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Sneaking in at this time is almost equal to death.

It is estimated that the unlucky intruder was discovered by Su Li, and then he took action to kill him.

For him, the matter itself is not very important.

As long as Su Li is willing to stay on the island and not come out, everything else is fine.

But having said that, why did Golden Core cultivator suddenly go there again this year?

Is it because the news was leaked in some places, leading those bold Bandit Cultivator to take risks, or is it because the current situation is turbulent and some people are starting to become restless?

After all, Su Li is the real Nascent Soul True Lord, and its existence itself cannot be ignored.

If the guarantee is not complete, someone is trying to take advantage of her.

How about sending manpower to set up patrols?

Iron Fan True Monarch is a little worried about this. In the past two years, various major events have occurred one after another, and the sect is very short of manpower.

His eyes couldn't help but glance at the invitation letter on the table, and he was a little bit headache about this new Esteem Truth Temple.

Nascent Soul Ceremony will be held soon, and invitations will be sent out widely.

Now it is being promoted everywhere that a True Monarch Preaching link will be added at the end, and casual practitioners are welcome to attend.

I don't know what kind of medicine they sell in this gourd.

There is also Illuminating Void Sect in the north, who seems to have contacts with several Hidden Family, and is also sending people to contact Buddhist Sect.

They seem to be on the verge of violence and there is absolutely no sign of peaceful coexistence.

Fortunately, there are Heavenly Dipper Sect and Ink Barrier Sect to the north of the Azure Sea Immortal Sect, and Cloud Wave Sword Abode to the east as natural barriers.

If something happens, it won't be affected immediately.

"Oh, what a troubled time it has been."

Iron Fan True Monarch couldn't help but sigh. If he had known that he would encounter so many troubles later, he would never have accepted the position of Sect Master from his master.

No wonder some sects pushed back and forth and finally chose to let junior Golden Core handle trivial matters as Sect Master.

Because these big problems alone are enough to make people upset.

Secluded Doom Island.

When the morning sun rises, another Moon Eclipse finally ends.

Su Li looked at Xiao Chen in front of her with a somewhat complicated mood. She naturally saw clearly the prophecy just now.

Of course she doesn't want to find Heavenly Witch Reincarnation, because she is afraid that things will not go as she wishes.

Thinking of this, she suddenly didn't want to take the initiative to suppress her cultivation.

Having power may not necessarily make you completely Defy Fate, but at least you can have more choices.

Nine Yin Calamity Spirit Body is not only a kind of destiny, but also a help to improve her cultivation.

"Su Li?"

Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her. "Are you okay?"

Moon Eclipse is over, why is she still in a daze?

Of course she often sits alone, sometimes for a whole day, so that's not the point.

The point is that you give me Blood Crystal first.

"It's okay."

Su Li came back to his senses and showed a smile, "Let me help you refine Blood Crystal."

She reached out and took out the condensed Blood Crystal from the gully on her chest, and shook it gently.

"Hey, wait a minute."

Su Li looked at the Blood Crystal in his hand, his eyes condensed, and he was a little confused. "Why do I feel that this Blood Crystal is different from the previous one?"

In fact, the difference is not very big, it just seems inconsistent.

The color seems to be darker than before?

"Is there any?"

Xiao Chen looked at it carefully and guessed. "Witch Artifact can absorb Curse to enhance Blood Crystal. Maybe this is the reason?"

"It should be fine, just give it a try."

He was a little hard to judge at the moment, but it didn't matter. Divinity Veil was here so he wouldn't be afraid.

Although there is a slight change in color, when actually absorbed, there is no difference in the Vitality Power contained in it.

In just a moment, Xiao Chen's Life Core, with the help of Blood Crystal, once again gained a full ninety points of true energy.

Its Total True Essence came directly to Road 606.

However, as the last stream of Vitality Power was refined, the temperature in his body began to rise abnormally.

Soon the whole person turned red from head to toe, like cooked prawns, with a trace of white gas coming out.

"What's wrong with you?"

Su Li's expression immediately changed, and he reached out to touch Xiao Chen's forehead, but felt as if he had touched a soldering iron.

She instantly realized that there must be something wrong with Blood Crystal.

The previous Curse Power was slowly released during the process of Moon Eclipse.

But this time, through Witch Artifact, everything was condensed into Blood Crystal.

Is it possible that Curse this time is so strong that Xiao Chen and Special Physique are also difficult to resist?

Su Li's eyes flashed with a trace of eagerness, and he didn't know whether he should take action.

She wanted to help, but she was worried that rash intervention might be counterproductive.

"It's okay, it seems to be Blood Qi's problem."

Xiao Chen took the time to answer, and continued to close his eyes and concentrate on Divine Sense Scan, checking his own meridians inch by inch.

As a Golden Core True Person, the high temperature itself is only a minor issue.

Even if this continues, it won't have any impact on him.

However, abnormal body temperature is just a symptom and represents other problems in the body.

Therefore, finding the source of the anomaly is key.

An hour later.

Xiao Chen The sudden high temperature in the body subsided on its own and returned to its original state inexplicably.

There were no other symptoms from beginning to end, which left him a little confused.

Since there is no movement from Hextech, it means that this should not be a negative effect.

What will happen?

In fact, Xiao Chen had already been mentally prepared for the cause of this sudden change.

After all, every time Blood Crystal is absorbed, the part of the Qi and blood melted in the meridians will definitely not disappear out of thin air.

But those disappearing qi and blood were just to give him an occasional fever?

Obviously it won't be that simple.

"Su Li, how much do you know about the process of refining Blood Crystal?"

Xiao Chen was thinking hard and decided to brainstorm.

So he directly recounted the previous feeling of qi and blood integrating into the meridians truthfully.

In this regard, she may have seen the related Inherited Memory.

"Refining Blood Crystal?"

Su Li lowered his head and carefully recalled the past Inherited Memory.

Nascent Soul True Lord's memory is very powerful, and experiences as intense as Moon Eclipse's can be described as photographic memories.

It's just that on ordinary days, she is not willing to think about these painful pasts, and even consciously avoids them.

That's why I didn't immediately think of the relevant content.

After thinking carefully, she quickly recalled several related messages.

.

"Sounds like it might be Witch Blood Purification."

Su Li explained, "In the past, if there was a witch in the Moon Witch Tribe who could obtain and absorb Blood Crystal six times, he would have a chance to get Witch Blood Purification."

"You can purify your own blood and even obtain Bloodline Witchcraft."

She did the math and felt something was wrong. "Strange, this is obviously the fifth Blood Crystal, how could Witch Blood Purification happen in advance?"

Xiao Chen understood immediately.

He had picked up one before and counted exactly six.

So that's it, no wonder the qi and blood are integrated into the meridians.

"But I'm not sure."

Su Li was a little unsure. "Well, do you feel that you have awakened to witchcraft now?"

"Or for example, seeing the memories carried in the bloodline inheritance?"

Huh?

Xiao Chen shook his head. "No."

In the past hour, he felt nothing except the high temperature.

"Then have you noticed any changes in your body?"

Su Li continued to ask, "For example, War Mark appears on the body, or has a tattoo?"

"Under normal circumstances, Witch Blood Purification will leave such representative traces."

Xiao Chen checked it with Divine Sense and answered firmly, "No, is this normal or abnormal?"

The situation didn't match up, and Su Li was a little confused.

She repeatedly recalled the Inheritance Scene she had seen, but could not recall any more content.

"Forget it, don't worry about this."

Instead, Xiao Chen persuaded, "I don't have a special constitution. Maybe Witch Blood Purification is the same as Curse, and it doesn't work."

He is now more concerned about another thing. "If I absorb Blood Crystal in the future, will it trigger Witch Blood Purification?"

He doesn't have Witch Clan Bloodline, purification is of no use.

Su Li was a little hesitant. "If you successfully awaken the witchcraft, you will have another chance if you absorb another six."

"Witches who have failed before are no longer eligible to receive Blood Crystal."

Gee, this rule is really cruel.

After finding the cause of the high temperature, Xiao Chen stopped paying attention to this issue.

At present, the most serious consequence is that every time you absorb six Blood Crystal, you will get a fever.

This little inconvenience is simply not worth mentioning.

"By the way, I have two things for you when I come back this time."

Xiao Chen took out Youth Preservation Pill and the stack of information books. "This information may not be accurate, but I thought you might be able to kill some time."

The moment he saw something, Su Li's eyes flashed with joy.

However, a look of disappointment soon appeared on her face, and she did not reach out to pick it up.

He just shook his head slightly. "Now that I have become like this, there is no need to waste the elixir."

"And after a hundred years, I actually don't care about this anymore."

Huh?

Xiao Chen I don't quite understand what she means.

He thought carefully and finally reacted.

Su Li specially emphasized the century!

She should be saying that this Youth Preservation Pill appeared too late and was not taken when she was young.

To be honest, this is a bit too real.

According to Nascent Soul True Lord's millennium-long Lifespan, Su Li who is now over a hundred years old is equivalent to a girl in her teens, which is the time of youth.

Of course, Xiao Chen can completely understand that female cultivators may be more concerned about this.

So he immediately praised, "It doesn't matter, don't you look pretty like this now?"

Su Li was a little in disbelief. "Really?"

She hasn't heard such comments since Moon Eclipse.

Xiao Chen nodded. "Of course it's true."

Su Li suddenly changed the topic. "W-what kind of book is this?"

She reached out and took Youth Preservation Pill and carried it behind her back, staring at the pile of information with two red clouds on her cheeks.

"This, this is not a book."

Xiao Chen opened the information. "I went to Fangshi to inquire about information, and I brought it back to relieve your boredom."

"The one above is more reliable but looks boring. The one below is just a rumor and may look better."

Su Li was silent for three breaths before saying, "Thank you."

It has indeed been a long time since she understood what was happening outside.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen was so attentive. Thinking of this, he brought her back the latest information.

"It's time, I'm going to practice first."

As the sun rises, strong Spiritual Qi Tide passes over the sea.

Xiao Chen immediately seized the time and came to the beach to start practicing.

Since coming to Compassion Sea Region, it has almost become his habit to seize Spiritual Qi Tide every morning to practice.

After all, this one hour of practice is almost worth the usual three hours and should not be missed.

In the following days, Xiao Chen concentrated on practicing every day as always.

He had obtained fifteen Demon Core before and took this time to absorb them.

Including those Third-Order Spirit Fruit, they are all open to eating to maximize their cultivation efficiency.

On the contrary, it was Su Li, and his whole appearance changed.

Originally, all she did was stare at the sea every day, almost like a statue.

But now I take Witch Artifact with me to pick flowers in the forest or dive in the sea.

Even when he is happy, he will immediately pick a lucky Sea Fish to bring back and make it into a dish to eat with Xiao Chen.

Speaking of which, there are basically no condiments on the island.

In the past hundred years, Su Li almost made a living by spitting out Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

But it doesn't matter, since Mystic Fire Crow started practicing Xiao Chen that time, Xiao Chen has had the habit of carrying salt with him.

Coupled with the Spirit Honey he purchased before, it is enough.

After all, high-end ingredients often only require simple cooking methods.

"Huh~!"

Another evening, Xiao Chen practiced for three hours in a row and was about to take a short break.

"Ding~!"

Red Thread Bell rings.

Su Li calculated the time and rushed back.

She was holding a starfish that was almost half the size of her body in both hands. "Shall we eat grilled starfish today?"

Huh?

Shouldn't this thing be steamed?

But Xiao Chen has never been picky about food. "Okay."

The monk has Spirit Fire, so he doesn't need to chop wood to make a fire, he can just start roasting with a wave of his hand.

You can even sit and chat together while baking.

Su Li handed over the task of controlling Spirit Fire to Xiao Chen, took out a piece of information and sat next to him and read it softly.

The jumping flames reflected on them, lengthening their shadows.

"I really didn't expect that Yi Family Old Ancestor is still alive."

Su Li was a little surprised. "I met him once before, and he was already over a thousand years old at that time."

"The whole person looks very old, as if he may die at any time."

"I didn't expect that a hundred years later, he would still be alive."

Turning the next page, she couldn't help but sigh, "This Surging Wave True Monarch actually broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm at the age of fifty-eight."

"In the next period of time, Cloud Wave Sword Abode should be revitalized."

.

A month passed in such a dull day in a blink of an eye.

February 15th will soon arrive.

This time they had enough time, and at Xiao Chen's suggestion, the two of them also prepared some Spirit Fruit and Spirit Fish as sacrifices.

At the same time, a temporary high platform was built with stones as an altar.

Although it is still not as good as the real Moon Offering Ritual, it looks much more stylish.

At the same time, after a month of accumulation, there should be a lot of Curse Power stored in Witch Artifact.

Or it can no longer be called Curse, it should be called Moonlight Power.

According to the content of the original Inheritance Scene, the accumulated Moonlight Power can improve the effect of Blood Crystal.

Xiao Chen is looking forward to this.

I can't wait to experience the powerful effects of the enhanced version Blood Crystal as soon as possible.

Zi Hour arrived as scheduled.

Su Li lifted Witch Artifact into his arms and began to receive Inherited Memory from his blood.

Tsk tsk tsk, Xiao Chen couldn't help but curled his lips.

How else to say that Moon Witch Tribe finally disappeared into the long river of history?

It is inseparable from their various strange rules and outrageous behaviors.

Su Li It's been a month since I got Witch Artifact, but I still can't master it. Isn't this just a waste of time?

Fortunately, there are no foreign enemies invading now, otherwise how should we deal with the enemies?

The person who designed Witch Artifact should reflect on why it was so complicated.

For example, the popular Spirit Artifact has a normal form and Spirit Ascension Form, which can be very convenient for monks Early-stage Golden Core to use.

But none of these things matter anymore.

Xiao Chen reached out and hugged Su Li, and followed her to watch those Inheritance Scene.

This time Inherited Memory is different again.

The first thing that appeared was the battle scene of the Moon Witch Tribe, which involved a lot of battles.

There are battles with other Witch Clan and Human Race, as well as scenes of cleaning up different Demon Beast to open up territories.

"Hiss~, Kunpeng!"

Xiao Chen Looking at the huge body leaping out from the sea, spreading its wings and soaring above the blue clouds in the picture, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

He thought it was just a legend before, but he didn't expect that there was actually Kunpeng in the Kunpeng Sea!

Inside that beef noodle...

Hey, this is not important, the key is that Ancient Times is actually haunted by Divine Beast.

Doesn't the previous Dragon Slaying Sea mean that a dragon really appeared at the Inner Sea?

The more critical question is, is it still available now?

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen couldn't help but look forward to it. If there was a chance, he really hoped that he could see the legendary Divine Beast with his own eyes.

Of course, it would be best if you can witness it and capture it as Spirit Pet.

However, achieving the latter is not a simple matter.

Let alone Golden Core cultivator, even Nascent Soul True Lord should be enough.

Xiao Chen shook his head slightly and took back his thoughts. There is no need to worry about these things now.

The top priority is to improve your own strength. If your cultivation is not enough, everything is useless. Only by being prepared can you seize opportunities in the future.

The scene ended with the Moon Witch Tribe successfully driving away Kunpeng.

What followed was a grand sacrifice.

For Xiao Chen, it is meaningless.

Finally, there is a picture of a large number of warriors in the tribe, gathering Body Cultivator for training.

It was estimated that there were thousands of people, all of whom were naked from the waist up. War Mark could be clearly seen on many soldiers.

Especially when performing witchcraft, those War Mark are like runes, glowing slightly.

In other words, it is more similar to the inscriptions carved on Law Artifact and Spirit Artifact.

You can use those lines to help Moon Witch warriors better perform witchcraft or strengthen their bodies.

"It's interesting."

Xiao Chen Looking at those War Mark, that is a completely new way of using Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

However, he didn't pay too much attention to this. The most important thing at the moment is Reinforced Blood Crystal.

As Moon Eclipse finally ended, Su Li took the initiative to take out a Blood Crystal with a deeper color, like a ruby, from his arms.

Under the morning glow, it almost reflected a dazzling light.

And when Xiao Chen's eyes were attracted to stare at Blood Crystal, he clearly felt the rich vitality flowing inside.

Just looking at it makes people almost unable to take their eyes away, and creates a feeling in the heart that they want to touch and devour it.

And this feeling is not an illusion, but a real attraction.

"If anything goes wrong during the ride, or if you feel uncomfortable, tell me."

Su Li specifically warned that she was a little worried that Blood Crystal, which had absorbed too much Curse Power, would put Xiao Chen under too much pressure.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Xiao Chen gave her a reassuring smile, then crossed her legs and started refining.

"Boom~!"

At the moment of contact, Vitality Power surged like a flood, pouring into Xiao Chen's body through his abdomen.

Compared with the ordinary Blood Crystal, Vitality Power in Reinforced Blood Crystal is more violent.

The difference between the two is almost the same as a gentle spring breeze and a biting winter wind.

These Vitality Power ruthlessly and crazily wash away every organ, every meridian, and even every drop of blood in Xiao Chen's body.

The effect itself is almost equivalent to an intense Body Tempering.

If you can persist in the past, you can gain a stronger body.

If you fail to persist, you will be seriously injured.

If Xiao Chen had come into contact with Reinforced Blood Crystal from the beginning, then he would really be at risk of injury.

Fortunately, he now has the foundation laid by training Blood Crystal in the previous few times. His physical fitness has improved several times compared to the beginning, and he can fully withstand such a washout.

At the same time, a considerable part of the energy and blood also took the opportunity to melt into his internal organs.

Xiao Chen can clearly feel that this part of qi and blood suddenly disappeared in the body, just like the previous qi and blood that melted in the meridians.

Fortunately, more energy and blood were absorbed by his whole body Acupoints, which had been prepared for a long time.

Under the guidance of the mental method, it was continuously transported into Life Core.

After only absorbing about half of the energy and blood in Reinforced Blood Crystal, Xiao Chen felt that he had reached Mid-stage Golden Core perfection.

"Ahem!"

He immediately gave a slight sound, indicating to Su Li not to interrupt him next.

Then with the help of Vitality Power, which was still surging in Blood Crystal, it began to attack the bottleneck of Late-stage Golden Core.

Originally this should be a very difficult thing.

After all, the Minor Bottleneck of the Golden Core Realm is almost as good as the previous Major Bottleneck.

However, for Body Cultivator, the most important Total Vitality and Xiao Chen are already far ahead of the monks of the same level, even more than half of the Late-stage Golden Core monks.

Therefore, what is an insurmountable chasm for others is almost like a small ditch for him.

As he accumulated a large amount of Vitality Power as motivation, he finally made a leap after finally being unable to hold back any longer.

This Minor Bottleneck was easily crossed.

He also successfully broke through to Late-stage Golden Core on the way to Body Cultivator.
