Xuantian Fetal Breath Pill

"I really deserve to die!" Chu Huai Xu began to berate himself.

Before this, he had called him "that old pervert" at every turn in his mind.

At the stone table, the two of them stared at the vigorous, powerful words on the scroll, both somewhat dazed.

Chu Huai Xu and Han Shuangjiang could both sense this senior's imposing spirit!

"I imagine this senior's path of cultivation was far from easy," Han Shuangjiang said with a sigh.

She was also gradually beginning to understand why, despite being a Super Grade Spiritual Embryo, she had been unable to rely on the Spirit Disk to open this stone door.

Because the senior named Lei Wenyen had intended from the beginning to leave the treasures in the Secret Realm to descendants with insufficient innate aptitude!

The Xuantian Fetal Breath Pill was an incomparably precious Level 7 Spirit Pill.

To ordinary cultivators, it was a life-saving medicine.

If one's Spiritual Embryo foundation was destroyed, the mild consequence was being unable to advance even an inch for the rest of one's life, just like Liu Chengqi.

The severe consequence was a drop in cultivation, damage to one's lifespan, and even danger to one's life.

Possessing such a Spirit Pill was equivalent to having an extra layer of protection.

But to cultivators with insufficient innate aptitude, the Xuantian Fetal Breath Pill could truly be used to defy the heavens and change their fate.

Lei Wenyen's words, "I grant you a fortuitous opportunity," were by no means an exaggeration!

Looking at the Spirit Pill Treasure Box and the scroll, Chu Huai Xu could not help saying the line frequently quoted online:

"Because he had stood in the rain himself, he would hold an umbrella for others."

To prove oneself a Great Cultivator with merely a Level 3 Low Grade Spiritual Embryo—one could imagine how much suffering that required.

This was the first time Han Shuangjiang had heard the saying. After blanking for a moment, she nodded deeply.

She had thought it through quite clearly and said, "Moreover, the trial set by Senior Lei also carries profound meaning."

"He wasn't someone who would casually give a Spirit Pill to a Low Grade Spiritual Embryo."

This seemed like a pointless statement.

But in reality, if you could endure hardship, you would have endless hardship to endure.

For someone whose Dao heart was not firm, what difference would having the Xuantian Fetal Breath Pill make?

It could indeed raise your upper limit, but that did not mean it could instantly turn you into a prodigy. Its improvement was limited.

But for someone with a firm Dao heart, this senior was adding a portion of sweetness to the cultivation path of inevitable suffering.

Using himself as an example, he told you that even a Level 3 Low Grade Spiritual Embryo could become a Great Cultivator.

Through his gift, he made the road ahead somewhat easier for you.

Lei Wenyen was the guide who had gone ahead of you, and also the guardian of your path.

Chu Huai Xu had not been transmigrated for long and had not fully adapted to this world.

Thus, there was no scene of a disciple offering thanks.

Even so, he was still deeply moved.

Just then, the System prompt sound rang in his ears.

"Ding! Hidden Dungeon: Pill King Token, cleared."

"Settling rewards..."

"Congratulations. You have received 1,000 free Experience Points and Xuantian Fetal Breath Pill ×1."

Cultivation was not something done by shutting oneself away. Many cultivators entered Secret Realms, underwent trial after trial, gained insights, and then achieved breakthroughs.

The system's reward of Experience Points after clearing a dungeon worked the same way.

Clearly, the main attraction of this Hidden Dungeon was this priceless High-Grade Spirit Pill.

That was why the amount of Experience Points awarded was not particularly high.

"Luckily, I stumbled into it. Because of the special nature of the 'Sword Refining Art,' I also gained over 2,000 Cultivation Technique Experience Points in the Medicinal Bath." Chu Huai Xu was already completely satisfied.

Speaking of which, his trip through the dungeon with Han Shuangjiang had gone smoothly overall.

But the fundamental reason was still that both of them had cheated!

With two cheaters, things naturally went smoothly.

If one thought the dungeon's difficulty was low, one should look at those still trapped outside or already kicked out of the dungeon.

At that moment, Han Shuangjiang looked at Chu Huai Xu and asked, "What should we do now?"

There was no road ahead. To leave, they would probably have to return the way they came.

Chu Huai Xu glanced at the Spirit Pill Treasure Box, pondered for a moment, and said, "Would you be willing to protect me while I cultivate?"

"Are you planning to take the Spirit Pill now?" Han Shuangjiang asked.

"Mm." Chu Huai Xu pointed at the stone door and said, "I took the Spirit Disk, which means we no longer have the Key. No one else can enter either, unless they have a high cultivation level and forcefully break through the Formation here."

"For me, this is probably the best place for Secluded Cultivation."

"After all, it's a Level 7 Spirit Pill. Something could go wrong, so I might as well just eat it and be done with it!" His eyes narrowed.

Han Shuangjiang nodded and said directly, "All right."

Chu Huai Xu found a place, then sat cross-legged.

He took out the dragon-eye-sized Xuantian Fetal Breath Pill from the Spirit Pill Treasure Box and could not help grumbling inwardly, It's so big. Won't it get stuck in my throat if I swallow it?

As it turned out, the Xuantian Fetal Breath Pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth.

Chu Huai Xu had never eaten this thing when he previously played "Borrowed Sword."

A warm current began to form within his body before flowing into his limbs and bones.

Han Shuangjiang quietly watched him from the side. She noticed that Chu Huai Xu's body began turning red and hot at a visible speed.

He had already been drenched, and now white steam began rising from his body.

"How hot is he?" she thought, secretly alarmed, but she did not dare touch him.

Chu Huai Xu closed his eyes and sensed the changes within himself.

He discovered that the lifeless black Heart Sword in his Sea of Consciousness seemed to have become... active?

Beside the Cold Pool, Liu Tianfeng and Steward Niu were playing chess.

The two of them had already played several games to pass the time.

Ten people had entered the Secret Realm. Six had been driven out by the Formation and were now standing beside the two stewards, carefully serving them.

Junior Sister Chen, who already had a Dao Companion yet had cheated with Liu Chengqi, was among them.

These six unfortunate fools had not even passed the maze in the first trial before being driven out for exceeding the time limit.

Thus, when Liu Tianfeng questioned them, they knew nothing about the subsequent trials and could answer nothing at all.

At that moment, Steward Niu held the black piece. After placing it, he looked at Liu Tianfeng and said, "Brother Liu, your heart isn't calm."

As more and more trusted subordinates were driven out of the Secret Realm, Liu Tianfeng had been making one terrible move after another while playing chess.

Steward Niu, on the other hand, remained calm and composed. After all, Chu Huai Xu and Han Shuangjiang were still inside the Secret Realm undergoing their trials.

"I'm not playing anymore!" Liu Tianfeng furrowed his brows, having lost all leisure for the game.

It had originally been eight against two, but six useless fools could not even pass the first trial. The Secret Realm had become two against two!

He had no way of knowing the specific situation inside and could only pray inwardly: My son must pass the trial.

I hope there really is a Xuantian Fetal Breath Pill in there!

After all, the Key to the Secret Realm's entrance was the Pill King Token. This was likely a kind of hint, meaning that most of the items left inside were related to pills.

Liu Tianfeng had fathered a son in his later years, and Liu Chengqi was a Blazing Fire Spiritual Embryo. He had named him Chengqi precisely because he hoped his son would become a dragon.

"After his Spiritual Embryo was damaged, Qi'er lost all spirit and his personality changed drastically."

"Ancestors, please bless him. Seniors of the Dao Sect, please bless him."

Seeing that he refused to continue the game, Niu Yuanshan was speechless. After all, he was about to win.

But he was honest and mild-tempered, so he merely smiled and let it go.

Even if he had not been a born good-natured man, after wearing the mask of one for so long, it truly would have become impossible to take off.

The Deputy Captain of the Enforcement Team, Liu Chenggong, soon brewed tea for his uncle and Steward Niu.

He spoke up to comfort him. "Uncle, don't worry. My cousin is precocious. He will definitely break through the trial!"

In his heart, his cousin was indeed an extremely precocious person. At that age, he still liked young girls, while his cousin had already liked other people's Dao Companions and mature women for several years.

Liu Tianfeng slowly nodded at this and knew that worrying would be useless.

His current state was much like a child taking the imperial examination inside while his parents waited outside.

Time passed, and another person was driven out of the Secret Realm, sinking to the bottom of the Cold Pool.

If not for the Water Repelling Bead, he would probably have choked on water.

When this Registered Disciple surfaced, Liu Tianfeng's expression grew even uglier.

"Meng Xiaodong, you were eliminated this quickly too!" he glared furiously.

Among the assistants he had arranged for his son, he had placed the greatest hopes on him.

But in truth, Meng Xiaodong had indeed been the first among them to leave the maze, only to become trapped in the Illusionary realm.

When the time was up, he had been eliminated.

Liu Chenggong hurried forward to comfort him again. "Uncle, please don't be angry. My cousin is still inside."

"But that Chu—" Liu Tianfeng glanced at Niu Yuanshan and ultimately chose to shut his mouth.

Fortunately, judging from the descriptions given by these Registered Disciples, the Secret Realm seemed to be an individual trial, with each person entering through a separate cave entrance.

In other words, Qi'er should not end up in a situation where he has to fight two people alone, Liu Tianfeng thought.

However, the next moment, a wondrous aura began spreading outward from the Cold Pool as its center.

The long sword strapped to Liu Chenggong's back began to tremble uncontrollably.
