In the end, the Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign left and vanished from this world. Perhaps the Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign wasn't afraid of death in the slightest.
The old man watched as the Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign turned into specks of stars and vanished into thin air. The corners of the old man's mouth curled into a smile, but the tears in his eyes were gone.
The old man finished the wine in his cup in one gulp and chided softly. "Idiot in the way of the sword …"
The Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign was indeed an idiot in the way of the sword. He lived his life solely for the sword. He had no family, no children, and only a pitifully few friends. The old man could be considered the one who was closest to the Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign.
Just as the Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign said before he left, the old man couldn't reject his request.
The Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign passed all his bloodline powers to Xiao Chen and left. Since the old man agreed to the Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign's request, he naturally couldn't leave Xiao Chen behind.
He temporarily settled down on this shattered continent and waited for Xiao Chen to wake up. But one month later, Hong Xiu was the first to come out of seclusion.
It had been almost three months. Hong Xiu finally refined all the energy in the Force of Living Beings. At the same time, she successfully condensed the Heavenly Immortal Manor and broke through to the Immortal Realm.
But after she came out of seclusion, Hong Xiu was baffled by the scenery before her. Was this still the Second Wilderness? She was surrounded by people who were full of vitality and rich spiritual energy. This clearly wasn't the Second Wilderness.
What kind of place am I in? Hong Xiu was puzzled. But shortly after, she spotted the old man leaning lazily on a reclining chair in front of the wooden house.
It was a very ordinary wooden house and a very ordinary old man. However, Hong Xiu was full of questions and worries as she looked at everything in front of her. That was because she did not see Xiao Chen anywhere.
Hong Xiu didn't give it much thought. She hurried up to the old man and said anxiously. "Old man, you …"
Her words could be considered polite. However, before Hong Xiu could finish speaking, the old man had already interrupted her. "Alright, the person you're looking for is in the house. Go in yourself."
The old man wasn't surprised by Lady Hongxiu's appearance at all. Lady Hongxiu was startled at first, but she didn't think too much about it and entered the wooden house.
Inside the room, Ms. Hongxiu indeed saw Xiao Chen who was still in a coma. When she first saw Xiao Chen, Ms. Hongxiu's heart suddenly sank. She thought that something had happened to Xiao Chen. After a careful examination, she found that Xiao Chen's body was very good. There were no injuries, but he was still in a coma.
There was no danger to her life. Only then did Hong Xiu secretly heave a sigh of relief. However, the doubts in her heart did not decrease but instead increased.
Why was Xiao Chen in a coma? Also, what was this place? Also, where are Ye Xiao and the others?
What exactly happened while I was in seclusion? All sorts of questions surfaced in Hong Xiu's mind.
There were endless questions in Hong Xiu's heart. Currently, the only person she could ask was the old man outside the wooden house. After pondering for a moment, Hong Xiu finally slowly walked to the wooden house. However, before she could open her mouth, the old man had already taken the initiative to speak first.
"Take good care of that kid. He will tell you everything when he wakes up."
Knowing what was on Hong Xiu's mind, the old man had no intention of answering. In fact, he didn't even open his eyes as he spoke.
Upon hearing his words, Hong Xiu was taken aback. But eventually, she gave up and returned to the wooden house helplessly to take care of Xiao Chen.
In truth, there wasn't much to take care of Xiao Chen. He was in good health. He was just in a coma. In the following period of time, Hong Xiu accompanied Xiao Chen. On one hand, she cultivated, and on the other hand, she waited for Xiao Chen to wake up.
As for the old man, Hong Xiu still didn't know his background. Moreover, every time Hong Xiu wanted to ask something, the old man would never give her a direct answer. He would only tell her that she would know when Xiao Chen woke up.
Time passed day by day. In the blink of an eye, it had been half a month since Hong Xiu came out of seclusion. On this day, Xiao Chen, who had been in a coma for several months, finally woke up.
He slowly opened his eyes. His mind was a little dazed. But soon, Xiao Chen's eyes lit up when he saw Hong Xiu appear before him. He looked at Hong Xiu and cried out in surprise. "Hong Xiu …"
Hong Xiu heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Xiao Chen had finally woken up. She came to Xiao Chen's side with a smile and said, "How are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort?"
Hong Xiu had been accompanying Xiao Chen all this time. She was very puzzled about Xiao Chen's coma. There were no injuries on his body, so why was he unconscious for such a long time?
Xiao Chen was taken aback when he heard Hong Xiu's words. He couldn't care less about anything else and began to check his body.
He clearly remembered that when he fought against six Immortal Venerables alone, he had madly burned the power of his bloodline.
However, as Xiao Chen checked his body, Xiao Chen was shocked by what he saw.
Firstly, his cultivation base had broken through to the initial stage of the Immortal Venerable Realm. He had successfully stepped into the ranks of Immortal Venerables.
After burning the power of his bloodline, his cultivation base had advanced instead of regressing? He had broken through from the Lesser Perfection Immortal Realm to the initial stage of the Immortal Venerable Realm? This was simply unbelievable.
He didn't expect that his cultivation base had broken through. However, Xiao Chen didn't feel it at all. He didn't even have the slightest awareness of it.
Of course, what Xiao Chen didn't know was that the reason why his cultivation base had broken through was because Heaven-Breaking Sword Sovereign had transferred the power of his bloodline to Xiao Chen. This could be considered as a small side benefit.
However, compared to his cultivation base, what surprised Xiao Chen more was the power of his bloodline.
The power of his bloodline, which should have been exhausted by now, was now so abundant. Moreover, compared to before, Xiao Chen felt that the power of his bloodline now seemed to be more powerful, and not just by a little bit.
This was an essential difference, a difference in level. Compared to his bloodline power in the past, his bloodline power now could be said to have undergone earth-shattering changes.
How should he put it? It had become purer. Besides, Xiao Chen felt that he had only sensed the appearance of the power of his bloodline. There were still many things that he hadn't grasped and discovered.
"My bloodline power …" Xiao Chen murmured softly as he sat on the bed in a daze. He didn't know how to describe his current feelings.
