The voice was very pleasant.
Lu Chen swore it was the most pleasant voice he had ever heard!
And beneath her pupils, the woman’s whole deanor was ethereal, untouched by the slightest trace of mundanity, making him extrely tense.
"Who are you!"
Lu Chen unconsciously gripped his Heavenly Inquiry Spear tighter.
In the darkness of night, not only did his pupils allow him to clearly see the woman’s stunning beauty, but they also let him see the strands of spiritual power that began to entwine around her from the mont she appeared, drifting in from the darkness.
He had never seen such a sight before.
Not even when he had slain those demon beasts in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain that could spew ice and fire!
"Interesting," the woman said nonchalantly as she half-turned to face Lu Chen with a full view, "With your Dantian destroyed and devoid of primordial strength, yet your Physical Realm is at the Bone Refinent Realm, you could still kill three Martial Artists of the Marrow Refinent Realm."
Lu Chen was even more shocked; the woman had seen right through him with just one look!
Could it be that she also possessed treasures like the Pupil Skill?
It seed as if the woman had read Lu Chen’s thoughts. She smiled sweetly, exuding endless charm, and said, "Rest assured, I’m in a good mood today, and I won’t kill anyone. However, I can’t guarantee that I won’t kill you the next mont!"
Beneath her gaze, Lu Chen felt as if he had been stripped of his clothes, with no secrets to hide.
Yet he still clenched his teeth and asked, "May I ask, senior, what is the Heaven Obstructing Vein!"
He was very cautious in his thinking, already guessing that it must have been his fight with the three Martial Artists of the Marrow Refinent Realm that had disturbed her.
And after she arrived, she had imdiately seen the issue with Qin Yaotiao!
"Quite perceptive," the woman said, revealing a smile again, "It seems that this girl is with you, and you also fought to protect her."
"Considering your loyalty, I don’t mind telling you!"
"Heaven Obstructing Vein is an Innate Body. Born with nine obstructed ridians, except for the blood flow that can circulate smoothly, it is not possible for primordial strength to pass through."
"Thus, the Heaven Obstructing Vein is considered a Martial Artist’s useless body. Nevertheless, even without practicing martial arts, they could live up to a hundred years with the body of a commoner!"
"But if, before the age of twenty, one can use the Spirit-communicating Grass to clear up the nine ridians with its dicinal properties, the Heaven Obstructing Vein could then beco the ridian of Heavenly Passage, which is a fine seedling for direct cultivation of spiritual power!"
"Since you are a Martial Artist, you must also know what it ans to cultivate spiritual power, right?"
Having said this, the woman looked at Lu Chen with interest.
"To answer the senior, to cultivate spiritual power is naturally to cultivate towards ascension!"
The other party’s explanation was clear enough, and Lu Chen himself was cultivating spiritual power; he rembered the words the totemic stone statue had told him, always keeping them in mind.
"Correct," the woman said with a faint smile, "By rights, a Martial Artist entering this place deserves death, but since you inadvertently brought a promising seedling, I will grant you a chance to live."
Although Lu Chen was reluctant, he knew it was a good thing for Qin Yaotiao; she didn’t want to part either, but the woman was speaking of life and death. Lu Chen did not want to face death.
Moreover, he also had a chance to break through to the Qi Refinent Realm.
By then, he would be a cultivator as well.
At this mont, Qin Yaotiao suddenly spoke up, "I don’t want to cultivate towards ascension, I want to follow my young master!"
Instantly, both the woman and Lu Chen turned their gaze towards her.
Disregarding the woman’s expression, Qin Yaotiao said firmly, "Either take my young master along for cultivation, or I will leave with him!"
Lu Chen was stunned and about to speak when he heard the woman’s tone turn cold, "Either you co with , or I kill him and then take you!"
Faced with the choice between parting and eternal separation, Qin Yaotiao knew what to choose.
Biting her lip, she said, "Then I will go with you to cultivate towards ascension. Later... can I still see my young master afterwards?"
A flicker of surprise crossed the woman’s eyes as she responded, "Without his Dantian, unless he finds a mysterious thod, no matter how high his strength, his realm will be his barrier... unless..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen’s heart leaped with joy, as for him, the realm was not an issue.
As for mysterious thods, he possessed the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique, the technique of the Heavenly Inquiry Spear, and the Heaven-Breaking Spiritual thod, all given to him by the totemic stone statue.
"Unless what?"
However, Qin Yaotiao was the one who eagerly posed the question, more anxious than Lu Chen.
"Unless he can make a full circuit of the Heavenly Abyss and reach the Qi Refinent Realm within three years! Then co and find , and I will let you see each other!"
The Heavenly Abyss?
Lu Chen clearly rembered, in the small woods outside of Yuzhou City, where he learned of his parents’ whereabouts.
It was the Heavenly Abyss too!
Thus, without any hesitation, he agreed, "Good, in three years from today, I will co here!"
The woman narrowed her eyes and said, "Young man, I will then await your good news!"
As her words fell, she took Qin Yaotiao by the hand and disappeared from Lu Chen’s line of sight!
