Qin Zhiruo was born with a special physique. Although she told Chen Tianwen that she had mastered some spatial laws, it was definitely not all of her knowledge.
What Chen Tianwen didn't know was that Qin Zhiruo was born with the Law of Water, which is why her cultivation process went so smoothly.
The patriarch of the Xianlan Sect once personally examined Qin Zhiruo and determined that she possessed the Kui Water Body. This Kui Water Sacred Technique was practically tailor-made for her.
Qin Zhiruo felt somewhat guilty. She had only known Chen Tianwen for a short time, and although they were sworn brothers, Chen Tianwen had been the one to handle everything along the way.
The only thing Qin Zhiruo did was defeat Shui Ling on the fourth floor of the tower, but Qin Zhiruo also believed that Chen Tianwen could have defeated Shui Ling in the same way.
Conversely, without Chen Tianwen, he might not have been able to break through the formations of the first few levels at all, and even if he were lucky enough to reach the fifth level, he would definitely not be able to break free from the illusion here.
The Stellar Secret Realm only opens once every ten thousand years, which means that if it weren't for Chen Tianwen, Qin Zhiruo would have forever missed out on the Kui Water Sacred Technique and the Water God Pearl.
Even now, after Chen Tianwen obtained the Sunflower Water Sacred Technique and the Water God Pearl, Qin Zhiruo thought she could agree to any conditions he proposed, but Chen Tianwen just casually tossed these two divine objects to her!
How could Qin Zhiruo possibly remain calm?
"Thank you, I'll find a way to repay you!"
Qin Zhiruo looked at Chen Tianwen, her attitude serious for the first time, and spoke solemnly.
Chen Tianwen waved his hand dismissively and said:
"Speaking so politely is not like you. If you really want to express your gratitude, do something practical, like offering yourself in return."
Qin Zhiruo blushed upon hearing Chen Tianwen's words, then nodded again and said:
"If this is your condition, I can agree to it."
Qin Zhiruo's seriousness left Chen Tianwen completely bewildered.
Originally, Chen Tianwen's words of offering himself in marriage were just a joke. Given Qin Zhiruo's previous personality, she would definitely have retorted. Chen Tianwen was speechless.
But Chen Tianwen never expected that Qin Zhiruo would actually agree!
Although Qin Zhiruo is a rare beauty in the world, Chen Tianwen believes that no man could resist her allure. However, Chen Tianwen has already become Daoist partners with Hua Qingyue and Xia Anyu, so how could he continue to flirt with other women?
Seeing Chen Tianwen's embarrassed expression, Qin Zhiruo chuckled and said to him:
"What? You're scared now? Coward!"
Chen Tianwen could only pretend not to hear Qin Zhiruo's teasing, because he knew that if he continued the conversation, he would be the one to suffer in the end.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianwen quickly changed the subject and said to Qin Zhiruo:
"Hey, why don't you refine this Water God Pearl and the Sunflower Water Sacred Technique now? I can protect you!"
Qin Zhiruo nodded and said to Chen Tianwen:
"I am already more than satisfied with finding these two divine artifacts during this trip into the secret realm. If you are not in a hurry to explore the secret realm, then of course the sooner you refine them, the better."
Chen Tianwen scratched his head and said:
"It's surprising that they still care about me; it suddenly makes me feel a little uneasy."
Qin Zhiruo gave a soft snort and looked at Chen Tianwen with a strange expression, saying:
"Is it wrong for someone to care about you out of gratitude? I'm even willing to give myself to you, it's just that you don't dare!"
Chen Tianwen almost slapped himself at this moment, blaming himself for always causing trouble for himself when he couldn't win an argument with this little girl.
Seeing Chen Tianwen suffer another setback, Qin Zhiruo ignored him and sat cross-legged to begin refining the Water God Pearl!
Seeing that the little girl had finally calmed down, Chen Tianwen breathed a sigh of relief and began to set up various barriers around Qin Zhiruo to prevent anything from happening outside from affecting Qin Zhiruo's refining of the Water God Pearl.
While refining the Water God Pearl, Qin Zhiruo sensed Chen Tianwen setting up a barrier. She now completely trusted Chen Tianwen, since he was willing to give away two such valuable divine items. Qin Zhiruo didn't think Chen Tianwen would have any ill intentions towards her.
Qin Zhiruo sensed the strength of the barrier and confidently began to continue refining it. At the same time, the Kui Water Sacred Technique floated around Qin Zhiruo. Qin Zhiruo was multitasking, comprehending the Kui Water Sacred Technique while refining the Water God Pearl.
Chen Tianwen set up ten barriers in one go before sitting down with peace of mind and beginning to comprehend the immortal technique, Ancestral Phoenix Burning Heaven.
After receiving guidance from Xingyu, Chen Tianwen's understanding of immortal arts has improved dramatically. Although the simplified version of Ancestral Phoenix Burning Heaven requires thirty hours to master, Chen Tianwen is confident that he can cultivate this immortal art to the point of mastery within twenty hours.
Chen Tianwen must improve his combat strength as soon as possible, because according to his estimation, after so much time, the escaped Piaoyun Sect elder Chang Yunqing must have contacted other members of the Piaoyun Sect and could return at any time to seek revenge on Chen Tianwen.
Chen Tianwen remained cautious and vigilant, simultaneously comprehending the immortal techniques and keeping a close eye on the movements outside the tower.
Chen Tianwen had already taken control of the teleportation arrays on the first four levels, and he believed that these arrays would be enough to hold out for a period of time.
However, considering that Chang Yunqing must have known about the tower's existence long ago and might have made some preparations, Chen Tianwen still dared not be careless.
Fortunately, no one from the Piaoyun Sect appeared until Chen Tianwen had mastered the Ancestral Phoenix Burning Heaven technique.
Chen Tianwen looked at Qin Zhiruo, who had now entered a state of enlightenment. Qin Zhiruo was floating in mid-air, with the Water God Pearl and the Sunflower Water Sacred Technique slowly rotating around her, releasing wisps of pure water laws. Qin Zhiruo opened her mouth slightly and absorbed all of these water laws into her body.
Chen Tianwen knew that Qin Zhiruo was at a critical moment and absolutely could not be disturbed, so he set up several more soundproof and defensive formations before nodding with relief and walking down the tower.
Since we know that the people from the Piaoyun Sect will come looking for trouble, it's better to take the initiative than to sit in the tower and wait to die.
Firstly, it could achieve a surprise effect, and secondly, it wouldn't affect Qin Zhiruo, who was undergoing enlightenment, during the battle.
After Chen Tianwen stepped out of the tower, he set up a defensive immortal array outside the tower. Although it was set up hastily, Chen Tianwen was still confident in the array. It was enough to withstand a full-force attack from a mid-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal, and even a late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal could withstand it to some extent.
After doing all this, Chen Tianwen spread his divine sense throughout the entire city, remaining on high alert at all times!
