Chapter 88: Seal It seems like someone has placed a seal on you. ...
Zhan Yao's injury was neither light nor severe. After medical treatment, she had almost recovered. Although she could not recover to 100% immediately, she should have no problem coping with the upcoming competitions.
Xu Huaiyan made it very clear in the message he sent.
Mu Fuyun wanted to go and see it with his own eyes, but before he could turn around, news of Zhan Yao came over.
"Don't come to see me, it's a waste of time."
Even through the small jade token, Mu Fuyun could imagine Zhan Yao's stubborn face and couldn't help laughing.
She definitely didn't want her to see how miserable she looked after being injured.
Well, then don’t go.
She replied, "Then you should rest well," and then went towards Lingshanze.
Throughout the day, there were more than a hundred Jindan stage cultivators, and in the end, only eight of them won ten games within the specified time. Except for Mu Fuyun and Zhan Yao, who were still in the early Jindan stage, the remaining six had three in the middle stage and three in the late stage.
Such a situation is very unfavorable for Mu Fuyun and Zhan Yao.
On the second day, the internal selection process was suspended and the disciples had a day off.
Mu Fuyun got up early as usual to practice sword fighting. He and a dozen classmates analyzed the victorious opponents one by one. It was not until the evening that he said goodbye to everyone and went to Xizhao Pavilion alone.
In Xizhao Pavilion, Chu Ye had been waiting for a long time.
Mu Fuyun didn't mention the time, and he didn't rush to ask. He didn't know when it started, but he stopped being so arrogant and impatient as he was at the beginning, and gradually lowered his posture.
When she came, he even subconsciously stood up from the meditation couch to greet her.
However, after taking only one step outside, he realized that his attitude seemed a little too eager, so he slowed down, adjusted his expression, and said calmly, "You're here."
Unexpectedly, Mu Fuyun was even colder than him. He just nodded and sat down on the couch. With his back to him, he unbuttoned his outer robe and said, "Let's get started."
She didn't want to waste any time and was obviously using him as a tool.
Chu Ye pursed his lips. It was not until now that he was really sure that when she proposed to exchange blood, she really had no other intentions. She just wanted to use him and Song Xinghe to help with their cultivation.
He said nothing more, sat down silently, circulated the energy in his body, and reached out to clear it for her.
This time, it took nearly an hour.
Chu Ye hadn't participated in the sect's internal selections, so his spiritual energy was abundant. But after an hour, he felt his qi sea was empty and his whole body felt weak, as if fighting an opponent of equal strength was more strenuous than a full-scale battle.
If this continues, as her realm rises, one day he will no longer be able to help her.
Since he was still able to do it, he gritted his teeth and got through it.
Just when her luck was about to complete a small cycle, he was about to withdraw the spiritual power that had penetrated into her meridians, but he suddenly discovered that the meridians, which had been confused before, seemed to have become much clearer as the turbid air was cleared away.
It was as if the clouds were about to clear and the sun was about to appear, allowing him to briefly feel the meridian foundation hidden underneath.
He didn't know whether it was as weak as others had thought. He only knew that what he saw was not something he could see in ordinary people.
Even after withdrawing his spiritual power and finishing today's dredging, he still hadn't come to his senses.
Mu Fuyun straightened his robes, noticed something was wrong with him, and turned to ask, "What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with my meridians?"
Her face was slightly flushed, showing the symptoms of having just been burned by pure fire spiritual power.
She has been taking the Holy Grass from the Demon Realm for some time now, and the effects of the Hehuan Sect's secret magic in her body have been reduced by a large part. Now, she almost never feels as hot and unbearable as before, to the point of being unconscious and unable to control herself. She just needs to endure it a little longer and she will be able to get through it.
Chu Ye looked at her with complicated eyes, paused, and then said: "Did you... encounter anything in your childhood?"
Mu Fuyun frowned, not knowing what he meant. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head, "I can no longer clearly remember anything from my childhood. As far as I know, I didn't encounter anything special. What do you mean by that?"
When she entered this body, she didn't know Mu Fuyun's past. Everything she knew came from that book.
The book's description of the past is very brief. It simply states that the parents are partial and care more about the likable elder sister Mu Fuyue, and often ignore her taciturn younger sister. Nothing else is mentioned.
Chu Ye pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "I don't mean anything else. It's just that I just probed into your meridians and glimpsed the foundation of your Dantian beneath the chaos. It seems like someone has placed a seal within your body, blocking the foundation of your cultivation. This makes you appear to have mediocre aptitude and a weak foundation. I guess that's why the head master mistakenly believed that you had no chance of becoming an immortal."
After hearing this, Mu Fuyun was also stunned.
"Are you serious?"
"I wouldn't be wrong about something like this, and I wouldn't speak nonsense." Chu Ye said with great certainty, "I'm not sure what this seal is for, but it does exist in the foundation of your Dantian, absolutely true."
He didn't know what the seal was used for, but Mu Fuyun could guess a little.
This was probably the reason why she always felt her spiritual energy was draining away too quickly.
When they were in the Xisha Islands, the master had told her that the impurities in her dantian seemed to have traces of human intervention.
In addition, when she was about to release the secret method of the Hehuan Sect in her body, Jieyou's hint made her feel that this seal might be more than just a simple one.
"I see." She said solemnly, her eyes becoming sharp. "It seems something happened in the past that I'm not aware of."
Chu Ye opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he found that she suddenly frowned, her face quickly turned red, and her expression became strange. He asked quickly: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Mu Fuyun took a deep breath, shook his head, and hurriedly stood up while saying, "It seems like I'm about to advance again."
Having said that, he was about to fly away from the courtyard on his sword.
Just as she took out the sword, she remembered something, turned back, pricked her fingertips, poured some blood into the porcelain bottle, stuffed it into Chu Ye's hand, and left without looking back.
Chu Ye looked at her hurriedly walking away, and his mood became even more complicated.
Even the Taoist Master Lingshan back then might not be able to match this speed of advancement!
On the way back, Mu Fuyun almost increased his sword speed to the fastest, and had no time to pay attention to the surprised looks of other people he met on the road.
Only when we were approaching the dense forest outside Lingshanze, we saw a vague figure on a secluded path on Fu Ri Peak.
After flying for a distance and reaching the dense forest, she realized that the figure seemed to be Xu Lian, whom Song Xinghe had mentioned to her yesterday.
It’s so late, why is Xu Lian staying at Fu Ri Peak instead of going back to Taiqing Peak?
The thought only flashed through her mind, and soon her thoughts turned to the upcoming breakthrough.
As soon as he arrived at Lingshanze, he didn't have time to say much. He just hurriedly bowed outside Xie Hanyi's house, then returned to his cave, meditated in seclusion, adjusted his qi and breathing, and waited for the time to break through.
That night, the sky above Lingshanze was once again covered with golden clouds, creating a strange scene.
The sky above Luoxia Peak, not far away, was also shrouded in a similar night.
"News from Senior Sister Yun Ni has arrived. It's from Junior Sister Zhan Yao!"
"Oh, Junior Sister Zhan was injured yesterday and is about to break through today, so we can't be careless!"
"Yes, if you are too weak, you might go crazy if you're not careful."
"Let's go back quickly, maybe we can still help."
In the sky, several female cultivators from Luoxia Peak flew back together on their swords.
After hearing what they said, everyone naturally knew who the person who broke through the realm at Luoxia Peak was.
"That's amazing! He's only been in the inner sect for a little over a year, and he's already advancing so many levels!"
"You are worthy of being the best of this generation of the Zhan family."
"I heard that before coming to Tianyan, although Zhan Yao was the most powerful one in the Zhan family's generation, he was not as powerful as the one in the Liang family."
"Are you talking about Liang Huailian, who is now a disciple of Master Hongmeng of the Taixu Sect?"
"It was her. I heard that back then, her talent and strength always surpassed Zhan Yao's, which made the Zhan family very angry. However, so much time has passed, and Zhan Yao is making such rapid progress now. I think she is no longer inferior to her."
When everyone was discussing the past affairs of the Zhan and Liang families, someone suddenly said, "Eh!" and asked, "Who is the other one who advanced?"
"Looking at the direction, it's not on any peak. Could it be... Lingshanze?"
If there is no thunder tribulation, then there is only Mu Fuyun.
"Isn't this... too fast?"
"This class of disciples are truly outstanding."
