"Err … I thought there were many great magical powers in the World of Cultivators, and Hong Zhu just happened to see it!" Xiao Chen was a little embarrassed. He quickly changed the topic and asked, "But aren't you just a Primordial Spirit? How did Hong Zhu see you? "
"What's so difficult about that?" Elder Heaven Ancestor explained proudly, "With my strength, I can naturally affect Hong Zhu's brain waves and make her hallucinate!"
"Oh … I see …" Xiao Chen answered, not really understanding. He guessed that Elder Heaven Ancestor might have used the method of possessing him to let Hong Zhu see an illusion again!
However, on second thought, Xiao Chen suddenly remembered something. He asked in a slightly dangerous tone, "By the way, Elder Heaven Ancestor, Hong Zhu chose to offer her body to help me heal. Could it be … your idea?"
"Ahem, I didn't say that! Don't accuse me wrongly! " Elder Heaven Ancestor hurriedly denied and said awkwardly, "I only told her that she needed a method of balancing Yin and Yang to help you resist the drug, but I definitely didn't ask her to make such a big sacrifice!"
"Are you serious? Did you hint to her? "Xiao Chen obviously didn't believe Elder Heaven Ancestor's words.
"Alas! To be honest, I also felt a little guilty at that time, because I really didn't think of a suitable method to balance Yin and Yang. " Elder Heaven Ancestor sighed and said sincerely, "But you were in a critical state at that time, and could die at any time. If I didn't come out, we would all be finished. So, although I didn't think of a perfect way to deal with it, I was forced to use this method and told her all the methods I could think of!"
"So, when she saw that I was in so much pain and couldn't do anything, she chose to use her body to save me …" Xiao Chen's mood was a little low, and he felt that he had wronged Hong Zhu.
"The little girl did this because she really liked you!" Elder Tian's tone also carried a trace of sorrow as he added, "Previously, when you were about to lose your life, this girl cried so hard that she wanted to die. She even wanted to commit suicide by taking poison! Fortunately, I acted in time and saved her, so that the two of you wouldn't die in this wilderness! "
In truth, there was one more thing that Elder Tian did not say. If Hong Zhu had not taken the poison, causing his consciousness to slacken and his soul to gradually dissipate, he would not have been able to take advantage of the situation and construct such a complete illusion. He would not have been able to successfully inject the information of the prescription and the method to obtain it into Hong Zhu's sea of consciousness.
After all, when he was fighting with Elder Nangong, Elder Heaven Ancestor had also suffered serious injuries, but because his soul recovered relatively quickly, his strength still hadn't recovered to its peak.
Therefore, after Elder Tian helped Hong Zhu detoxify his poison, replenished Xiao Chen's Qi, and then constructed an illusion to explain the situation to Hong Zhu, his primordial spirit also couldn't hold on any longer. He didn't even have the time to think of a suitable method to harmonize Yin and Yang before he fled in a sorry state. Otherwise, that illusion might really collapse on the spot, and all of his previous efforts would have been in vain!
Fortunately, although Elder Heaven Ancestor didn't explain it in detail, Hong Zhu was extremely intelligent, and without a teacher, he thought of the most suitable method, and finally saved Xiao Chen!
Of course, Elder Heaven Ancestor didn't think it necessary to tell Xiao Chen about this. In any case, now that he had successfully awakened, everything was fine!
"What? Hong Zhu wants to commit suicide for love!! " Xiao Chen was shocked, staring at Hong Zhu who was lying on top of him with infinite tenderness, and couldn't help but have a good impression of her. When he was unconscious, this little girl must have been in so much pain and sorrow that she would choose such an intense and resolute action?
Thinking of his lukewarm attitude towards her in the past, Xiao Chen couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and gently stroked her hair.
"Yes, but that's no longer important. I've already erased that painful memory of hers … or rather, I've hidden it, so she will only think that it was a dream, and won't take it seriously." Elder Heaven Ancestor indifferently said, "But in the future, don't mention this matter in front of her, or else it'll be very easy to see through it."
"Alright, I'll remember that!" Xiao Chen took a deep breath and suppressed the surging emotions in his heart. He changed the topic and asked, "Then are my injuries considered to be completely healed now? Don't tell me I need to rest for a few more days? "
"Look at what you're saying, rest for a few more days, is there a need for that? You don't believe in the medicine that I prescribed for you? "Elder Sky lectured him in exasperation.
"Uh … that's not what I meant …" Xiao Chen wanted to explain a few more words, but was interrupted by Elder Heaven Ancestor, "After the Yin and Yang Harmonization just now, coupled with the effect of the medicine, you've now reached the half-step Mountain Opening Stage, which means that you're about to break through to the next stage of Profound Ascension Stage, so hurry back to the Burning Sky Sect, and find that Nangong something for revenge!"
"Are you serious? Half-step Mountain Opening Stage … "Xiao Chen was dumbfounded once again. He subconsciously circulated his mental cultivation method to activate his Vital Qi. Only then did he realize that the many broken meridians in his body had all been repaired at some point in time. His Vital Qi had become denser and more solid, and the aura he emitted was also more oppressive than before!
"Huh? Husband Xiao Chen, you seem to have become stronger again! " Feeling the oppressive aura emitted by Xiao Chen, Hong Zhu blurted out in surprise, and unconsciously began to circulate his cultivation method.
"Ah! How did I also break through? " As he circulated his cultivation method, Hong Zhu suddenly discovered that he had also leveled up, and couldn't help but mutter in bewilderment, "What's going on? I think I'm about to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage! "
"Hehe, just now we … are equivalent to a higher level of dual cultivation, so not only have my injuries healed, my strength has also increased, and yours has also soared." Xiao Chen smiled slightly, and gave a simple explanation.
"Wow … so you can actually cultivate while exercising? That's amazing! " Hong Zhu blinked his eyes, his tone full of surprise and excitement, and his eyeballs rolled around, not knowing what he was thinking.
"That's right!" Xiao Chen nodded, lightly pinched the tip of Hong Zhu's nose, and asked in a gentle voice, "It's already been a few days, right? Why don't we first return to the Burning Sky Faction, kill that arrogant Elder Nangong, and then I'll slowly help you level up? "
"No way!" Contrary to Xiao Chen's expectations, Hong Zhu actually refused, and instead said coquettishly, "There's still a while before the sun rises! Let's hurry up, we can do it again … again. Big Sister wants to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage right now! If you don't agree, I … I won't leave you! "
