As the Universe Turns - Chapter 522
Chapter 522 Devil Skill Cultivated
When he returned to the courtyard, it was already midnight. Xiao Chen arrived outside Shen Jing’s room. Inside, the candle flames were shaking and a cold aura was faintly emitting.
“You don’t need to come over these days. I need to be alone. I’ll look for you when the cold energy in her body dissipates.” Shen Jing’s voice came from the room.
“Alright, just call me if you need anything.”
Xiao Chen nodded slightly and then turned around to leave. For the next month or so, he meditated in his residence and cultivated. Using the fragment of the Heavenly Book, every time he circulated his True Qi within his body, he would be able to superimpose a layer of cultivation power.
Even though this layer was extremely insignificant, it had accumulated over the years, making his strength much deeper. Breaking through the shackles of Soul Formation was already within reach.
That night, the stars and moons dimmed. Xiao Chen was meditating and cultivating in his room. Just as he circulated his True Qi for twelve cycles, a divine sense suddenly shot in from outside.
This strand of divine sense was extremely powerful, and it came very quickly. It almost caused him to lose his True Qi. He was most afraid of being disturbed when meditating and cultivating, causing his True Qi to become chaotic. Especially when he was preparing to transform into a spirit. Fortunately, he managed to stabilize his heart veins with the Xuan Qing True Art just now. Otherwise, all his cultivation and hard work would have been in vain.
This divine sense had been exposed, but it still hadn’t left yet. It was still in the room, staring straight at him. In the cultivation world, if someone used their divine sense to spy on others, they would immediately retreat once their divine sense was discovered. However, this divine sense had already been exposed, yet it still hadn’t left. It couldn’t help but appear contemptuous and provocative.
This feeling was like being stared at without fear. Xiao Chen was extremely disgusted. With his divine sense, he said coldly, “If you don’t scram, your body and spirit will be destroyed!”
In that instant, that divine sense retreated. At this moment, on a cliff fifty miles away from the city, a Old man Zi Yi clutched his chest and retreated. His face suddenly turned extremely pale, as if his divine soul had been traumatized.
Behind him, there were more than twenty silhouettes standing. Seeing this, a white-clothed man quickly stepped forward to support him. He frowned and said, “Elder, what’s wrong?”
“Go back … immediately.”
Old man Zi Yi’s face was extremely pale, and his eyes were filled with fear. He muttered, “You can’t go tonight. There’s an expert in Fengman Attic.”
“Expert …”
The white-clothed man walked up and looked in Dingfeng City’s direction. A cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes as he coldly said, “How tall is he?”
“My cultivation is not inferior to mine.”
“It’s also Soul Formation.”
The white-clothed man’s expression was cold, and he didn’t seem to care much.
If an ordinary person heard the word ‘Soul Formation’, they would be afraid of it, and this white-clothed man appeared to be ordinary, then his identity would definitely be extraordinary.
“Let’s go. We’ll talk about it in a few days … when the other elders of the sect arrive.”
Old man Zi Yi said slowly. He then turned to look in the direction of the city. At that moment, although it was only a short moment, the other party’s divine sense had put a great pressure on him. He had never felt such a powerful divine sense since he had transformed into a spirit.
…
Inside the room, Xiao Chen slowly stood up, wondering who had just spied on Fengman Attic? That divine sense came and went quickly. The other party was at least a cultivator who had already transformed into a god, a person who had transformed into a god. Could it be Limitless Hall or Poison Dragon Fort that was peeping into Fengman Attic?
At this moment, soft footsteps sounded from outside. Apart from Shen Jing, no one else would come to his room.
“Sister Shen Jing, can I help you?”
“It’s fine. I just heard something from you. Come and take a look … It’s so dark, why didn’t you light the lights?”
Evidently, with Shen Jing’s current cultivation, she had only sensed it a little earlier and was not able to discover that divine sense, so she was worried that something might happen, so she came over to take a look.
“I was just meditating and cultivating in my room.”
As Xiao Chen spoke, he lit the candles on the table and went to the door to open it. Seeing Shen Jing standing outside, he asked, “Do you want to remove the cold energy from Wei Yang’s body?”
“Mm …”
Shen Jing nodded slightly and said, “The next few days will be crucial. Whether she can wake up or not will depend on these few days. I want you to help me by the side, and you must not leave at all.”
“Alright.”
Xiao Chen agreed without hesitation. There was nothing more important than saving Wei Yang. Although that divine sense just now made people suspicious, he believed that Mistress Rakshasa would handle it on her own. This was Fengman Attic, so there was no need for him to interfere.
…
At this moment, in a cold secret hall, there was a figure sitting on the stone platform at the front of the hall. That person was the Rakshasa Lady who had gone into seclusion three months ago.
At this moment, blood mist shrouded her body. Suddenly, she opened her eyes. Her eyes turned blood red, her lips turned blood red, and the fingernails on her hands grew much redder. More strangely, a bloody mark appeared between her eyebrows.
“Finally … I’ve succeeded, hehe …”
Lady Rakshasa raised her palms and looked at the blood-colored Genuine energy in her palm. She smiled with satisfaction. At this moment, her entire body was completely different from three months ago. Not only did she look even more beautiful, she also had a terrifying chill on her body.
Just at this moment, a series of thin footsteps sounded from outside. When they reached the entrance of the secret hall, they stopped.
“Come in.”
“Yes …”
Yaoji slowly walked in. However, when she raised her head and saw Lady Rakshasa’s current appearance, she couldn’t help but be stunned, “Lou … Lou Zhou?”
“Am I beautiful …”
Lady Rakshasa revealed a strange and cold smile, as if she possessed a soul-stirring ability. Yaoji’s entire body couldn’t help but tremble as she nodded her head hesitantly.
“Tell me, why are you here?”
Lady Rakshasa looked at the much longer red fingernails and asked coldly. In the past, Yaoji was the person she liked the most, but now her cold and indifferent appearance was completely different from three months ago.
Yaoji didn’t know why, but she was inexplicably afraid of the person in front of her. Her body couldn’t help but tremble slightly, and she said in a trembling voice, “Hui … Hui Lou Zhu, just now … Yue You Shi discovered a divine sense, but not long after, that divine sense disappeared …”
“Oh …”
Lady Rakshasa replied coldly, “Is it the Lu Family?”
“Should … should be.”
Yaoji lowered her head and whispered.
“Heh …”
Lady Rakshasa smiled coldly. “They’ll be here in three days.”
Yaoji raised his head and looked at Lady Rakshasa who didn’t care at all. He whispered, “Then … what does the landlord plan to do with it?”
“It doesn’t matter. You can go back and do your thing. I… I’ll do mine too.”
Lady Rakshasa said indifferently. Before she could finish her words, Yaoji could only feel a cold breeze sweeping past her. Without even blinking an eye, Lady Rakshasa’s figure had already disappeared from the entire secret hall.
