"Let's go, let's get down the mountain before it gets dark," Suixin said, pulling Xiyun along.
"Mmm," feeling the warmth in her palm, Xi Yun felt a secret joy.
Some things that initially felt embarrassing gradually become natural...
On the way down the mountain.
"What exactly happened today? Did Xiaoyun tell you?" Suixin asked, puzzled, hoping to get some answers from Xiyun.
“Well, ever since we were caught in the vortex…” Xi Yun began to recount.
From the vortex onwards, everything in this world is built upon the foundation of sword intent.
Xiao Yun'er's soul awakened a few months ago and used the power of sword intent to construct this illusory world. Everyone who enters will be tested, and the tests will be different for each person.
At first, the little girl wanted to use the sword formation in front of her to test Suixin and see how far he could go for Xiyun.
Later, things gradually developed beyond expectations. Sui Xin was unwilling to kill him, so he could only send him to retrieve the Divine Sword Intent as a test.
But little did they know, the little girl's heart was slowly changing, from initial contempt to worry and obstruction, and finally regret and the choice to believe.
The Divine Sword Intent is of great use to Xi Yun. Even if she doesn't take it now, she should find an opportunity to get it later.
Only by annihilating this awakened divine soul can Xi Yun awaken.
Moreover, for some reason, the little girl seemed unable to destroy her own soul; it had to be destroyed by someone else, or by the Soul Separation Sword Intent.
Now, thanks to the nourishment of the little girl's divine power, Xi Yun has reached the eighth level of True Essence, not far from the ninth level.
The Divine Sword Intent is still in Xiyun Qi Sea, which is of great benefit to the cultivation of sword techniques.
The power of the sword intent seemed to have dried up, appearing somewhat dim.
"So that's how it is. No wonder I always felt like she had some kind of premeditated plan," Sui Xin suddenly realized.
“But she was wrong from the start. Why do you need to test me?” Xi Yun said, looking at Sui Xin. As she spoke, the image of Sui Xin working so hard slowly came to mind, and she felt a pang of heartache.
"It's alright, I'm willing."
"Fool"
......
It was getting dark, and the hour that the chubby guy and his friends had mentioned was almost up.
"Let's go, let's go look for it," the chubby boy said, his voice tinged with worry.
"No need," a voice came from outside the restaurant at that moment, and Sui Xin pulled Xi Yun in.
"Suixin, you're finally back! We were so worried about you," Qianyu breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing Sui Xin holding Xi Yun's hand, she felt inexplicably lost.
"That's right, we've been waiting for you two to come back for dinner. Come on, sit down."
"Waiter, let's order!" The chubby boy couldn't wait any longer. Now that Sui Xin and the other two were back, his appetite returned immediately.
"Sui Xin, where have you been? How come your cultivation levels have increased so much since you came back?" Peng Fei asked, puzzled, having noticed the changes in their cultivation levels.
I briefly recounted what had happened to the others.
The gist of it was that he entered a secret realm and got trapped, and then he received some benefits. He didn't tell the real story, because it was too outrageous and he was afraid it would scare the group.
"Oh, is that so..."
"I see. It's just a bit of a shame that it's a one-time secret realm."
For them, the secret realm was something that could only be encountered by chance, and to see it was a rare opportunity.
...
The group ate and chatted...
"Let's go and rest first, and we'll go check again early tomorrow morning," Lu Cheng said. They had already wasted a day, and they needed to make the most of tomorrow morning.
"Um"
The group returned to their rooms, but none of them seemed to want to sleep. The chubby boy and the others had slept all day and were still very energetic.
The two of them are doing just as well; the hot spring had a great effect on them, and they are still full of energy.
So they all started practicing cultivation on their own initiative.
"Knock knock knock," a knocking sound rang out on the door.
Sui Xin opened her eyes, got up, and went to open the door.
A delicate little face appeared before my eyes, bathed in moonlight.
"Yun'er, it's so late, aren't you going to sleep yet?"
"Oh dear, I couldn't sleep, so I asked you to cultivate together," Xi Yun said as she walked in.
"Oh, I see."
He couldn't sleep either, so it was nice to have someone to keep him company.
Xi Yun didn't stand on ceremony and sat down in front of Sui Xin. Since they were both sitting on the bed, there was only half a meter between them.
As he watched the person in front of him close their eyes, he didn't think much of it and reflected on what he had accomplished that day.
The pool inside his body was still about half full. The beads on the side were quite good; they gave him all the spiritual energy to absorb the sword intent, but he couldn't absorb that much at once.
I estimate that once I absorb all the spiritual energy inside the bead, I should be able to enter the True Essence Realm, which is much faster than usual.
If you absorb more each day, you can expect to advance to the next level in a little over a month.
Xi Yun is no slouch either; her sword intent alone can help her cultivate her Qi Sea. Over time, her spiritual energy will acquire a sharp and piercing quality.
Secondly, as the sword intent is gradually digested, her swordsmanship level will also increase.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, the chubby boy and the others had fallen asleep, and Xi Yun opened her eyes to look at Sui Xin.
I've been watching for half a day now, and I don't find it boring at all. I haven't made any moves, though, for fear of disturbing the other person.
"Yun'er, why haven't you left yet?" Sui Xin slowly opened her eyes, looking slightly tired.
For some reason, I feel weaker than before, and I feel tired after only a short time of cultivation.
"Why are you leaving? I'll wait for you to sleep together," Xi Yun said, her voice almost inaudible towards the end.
"Ahem, do you want to sleep inside or outside?" Sui Xin didn't refuse, but asked a little shyly.
