"If he doesn't wake up soon, we'll really be worried."
Seeing Du Shaofu wake up, Du Xiaoman's brows finally relaxed. She immediately helped Du Shaofu up from the bed. Her pitch-black eyes were as clear as a stream, and her lips were like cherry petals. She said softly, "The inner court elders have already examined you. They say you're fine, just exhausted too much energy. It's not a big problem."
"En, I was fine in the first place."
Du Shaofu smiled faintly. Supported by his big sister, he glanced sideways at the room. He had returned to the Weapons Department's courtyard. He did not know who had brought him back.
"Right, where's my sword?"
Suddenly, Du Shaofu seemed to have thought of something, and his expression immediately changed.
"What are you so nervous for? I brought it back for you. Just what is inside? Why is it so heavy? I almost couldn't get it back even with all my strength."
Ouyang Shuang indicated for Du Shaofu to look at the bed. Only when she had helped Du Shaofu put away the sword did she discover that the item wrapped tightly in the purple cloth was as heavy as a thousand jin. It was difficult to pull it out. She really did not know how this fellow could have withstood it by carrying it on his back all day long.
Du Shaofu looked at the Purple Gold Heavenly Tower beside the bed, and only then did he relax, letting out a sigh of relief.
"Big brother, are you awake?"
"Junior brother Du, it's good that you're fine."
Immediately after, the voices of Du Xiaoqing and Han Chao came from outside the door, and then several figures walked into the room.
It was Du Xiaoqing, Du Xiaoyao, Han Chao, Tu Tong, and Bing Na. They all looked at Du Shaofu with concern. Seeing Du Shaofu wake up, they all let out sighs of relief.
After that, from the words of the crowd, Du Shaofu found out that he'd already been unconscious for two days, and in five days, the top ten of the Martial Rankings would enter the Heaven Martial Talisman Realm to cultivate in seclusion for half a year.
"Alright, let's all go out and let this guy meditate and recover."
A moment later, Du Xiaoman urged everyone not to disturb Du Shaofu anymore. Her body was covered by an orange-red loose robe. Below her slender jade-like neck, her soft breasts were like creamy white jade. Half of her body was covered. Her slender legs were curved seductively, as if they were silently enchanting.
Everyone understood and immediately left.
Du Shaofu smiled bitterly. At this moment, he indeed needed to do some breathing exercises to recover.
Looking at Du Shaofu, the corners of Du Xiaoman's mouth curled up slightly. Her red lips parted slightly, as if she was inviting him to kiss her. Her appearance was enough to tug at the nerves of any man. She said, "Be obedient and recover. If third uncle and everyone in the family knows about your current achievements, they will definitely be pleasantly surprised. I already knew that my third brother would definitely surpass ordinary people."
As her voice faded, Du Xiaoman's eyes were filled with a smile. The third brother in front of her was already as different as heaven and earth from the past. Back then, she had always believed that her third brother would definitely soar to the heavens one day.
How could a true 'foolish young master' have such a bearing? Even when bullied, he would still maintain his arrogance. Even when bullied, he would never beg for forgiveness, nor would he bend his back.
Du Shaofu did not say anything. He only smiled slightly. Perhaps if he won this time, he would be able to take a step closer to his mother and sister.
After Du Xiaoman left the room, Du Shaofu once again carried the Purple Gold Heavenly Tower on his back. Only then did he once again sit cross-legged on the bed.
After stuffing quite a few elixirs into his mouth, Du Shaofu began to form hand seals and meditate.
A moment later, Du Shaofu's body was enveloped in a layer of faint golden light.
… …
Two days after the Tianwu Meet ended, the news had already spread.
In particular, there were rumors that the champion of the Tianwu Meet, Du Shaofu, had defeated Qi Yexi, who was in the Profound Martial Marquis Realm, with his cultivation at the Pulse Spirit Realm.
The news of a genius appearing in Tianwu Academy immediately caused the expressions of countless powers to change.
In a courtyard that had been around for a long time, the limestone floor was mottled and exuded an aura of vicissitudes.
Within the majestic hall, dragons and phoenixes were carved. Many elders and burly men with extraordinary auras were seated.
"I didn't expect that a genius would appear in Shi Cheng's clan. Compared to Du Tingxuan, his talent is even greater."
"This lad is definitely not a fish in a pond. He will definitely soar to the heavens. Our Du Family should express our gratitude."
"Absolutely not. Back then, Du Tingxuan had stirred up a monstrous calamity, causing our Du clan to nearly be annihilated. Even now, the few elders are still recuperating from their injuries. This Du Shaofu has some sort of entanglement with those enormous beings. If our Du clan is implicated, I'm afraid that we will once again be annihilated."
"What happened back then had a huge impact on our Du Family. But now that a genius has appeared, if we don't accept him into our clan, it will be a huge loss."
"No matter how huge the loss is, it's still better than being destroyed. Furthermore, it's not like our Du Family is lacking in talents. If it was back then, it would have been difficult for us to make a choice. But now, he isn't the only genius in our Du Family!"
Inside the hall, many powerful cultivators were engaged in a heated discussion. A burly man with well-defined facial features didn't say much. He just listened quietly at the side.
The vast and majestic hall was connected to one another and a faint royal aura could be felt.
In the hall, a middle-aged man dressed in a dragon robe stood there. Even though there weren't any ripples of aura coming from his body, no one dared to look at him directly. He muttered, "I didn't expect another genius to appear in the Du Family."
… …
Four days later, early in the morning, the sun dyed the sky red. In Tianwu Academy, the mountains were painted with a layer of faint gold.
Du Shaofu sat cross-legged in a single courtyard in the Artifact Institute that was surrounded by a mountain and a river. His body was surrounded by a faint golden halo of light. The violent energy brought about by the many elixirs and medicinal pills that he had consumed had been refined into his own pure profound energy. His bones, muscles, internal organs, and other organs were also absorbing the medicinal strength after the refinement to recover, allowing the injuries on his body to automatically recover during his cultivation, and his complexion began to slowly recover its rosy complexion.
A moment later, as he retracted his hand seal, the golden halo around Du Shaofu gradually receded. Like threads of golden spiritual snake energy, they drilled into his body in a mysterious manner. His tightly shut eyes abruptly opened.
"Chi chi …"
Two streaks of light shot out from his faint golden eyes. An ancient and domineering aura swept out from his thin and sturdy body, causing the entire room to tremble.
"Huff!"
After spitting out a mouthful of turbid air, Du Shaofu's resolute face retracted the light in his eyes, returning to a clear and bright state.
"Crackle …"
Stretching his waist, Du Shaofu's joints made 'crackling' sounds. At this moment, he felt that the injuries in his body and the profound energy in his God's Gate had recovered to the point that there were no longer any problems.
"Chi!"
Right at this moment, a small bronze pagoda leaped out from Du Shaofu's bosom. Its entire body was suffused with flowing light and mysterious runes flickered. The surrounding air rippled and a smoke-like ripple spread out from the small pagoda. In the end, it condensed into a rather transparent youth's figure.
At this moment, the transparent figure looked to be around sixteen or seventeen years old. However, from the appearance of the figure, it was still very skinny. It was extremely skinny, as though it was all skin and bones. Its cheeks were fierce-looking, its eyebrows were inverted, and its eyes were triangular.
It was one thing for this sixteen or seventeen year old youth to have triangular eyes, but it also revealed a wretched gaze, causing people to feel uncomfortable no matter how they looked at it. It was simply that strangers could only use the word 'extremely wretched' to perfectly describe and interpret this transparent youth's figure.
"This time, I've finally recovered quite well. I've improved quite a bit."
As the youth's figure appeared, he immediately stretched his waist with a smile on his face. It was just that it was fine if he didn't smile, but when he smiled, his wretched face was even uglier than crying.
However, Du Shaofu didn't feel that this youth was embarrassing. He only felt that it was a little strange. He immediately said happily, "Brother Qingchun, why did you go into seclusion for so long this time? Also, you seem to have grown up quite a bit."
It had been a few months since his elder brother, Zhen Qingchun, had entered seclusion in the small pagoda and returned from the Dark City to obtain the Mysterious Spirit Heavenly Vine. If Zhen Qingchun still hadn't come out after such a long time, Du Shaofu was afraid that he would really be worried.
"What do you mean by grown up? I'm already a few hundred years old. It's just that I've casually become like this because of my cultivation method. Once I recover my peak strength, I'll be able to fully recover."
Zhen Qingchun glanced at Du Shaofu and peeked at Du Shaofu's aura. He frowned and said, "You seem to have been beaten up by someone. What happened?"
"It's a long story. I'll tell you slowly."
Du Shaofu smiled. He naturally didn't hide anything from his elder brother, Zhen Qingchun, from the Dark City, to the Mysterious Spirit Heavenly Vine, to his master, to the Venerable Weapon, to the Dark Nether Sect, to the King of Medicine, to the Heavenly Martial Assembly after he came back, everything was simple.
When Zhen Qingchun heard Du Shaofu's story, his wretched face and wretched eyes kept fluctuating.
"You're saying that you've become the disciple of the Venerable Weapon and obtained the peerless divine weapon that the Venerable Weapon refined?"
Zhen Qingchun closely looked at Du Shaofu with a face full of shock. It seemed like he had also heard of the Venerable Weapon's name.
"Yes," Du Shaofu nodded and said, "Brother Qingchun, do you also know my master, the Venerable Weapon?"
"The Venerable Weapon who dominated the Central Plains, of course I've heard of him. He should be an expert from a thousand years ago, the Venerable Weapon Refiner of the Central Plains. It's a pity that I'm a few hundred years younger than him. When I dominated the world, the Venerable Weapon had already disappeared in the Central Plains. You're really lucky."
Zhen Qingchun was shocked. He then looked at Du Shaofu and said, "I've never heard of the Heaven Martial Talisman that can accelerate time in the Heaven Martial Talisman. Half a year is five years inside the Heaven Martial Talisman. It's very useful for you. It's also a great opportunity."
"Brother Qingchun, how's your recovery?"
Du Shaofu felt that Zhen Qingchun's aura seemed to be a lot stronger than before. His illusory body was also a lot more solid.
"I've recovered quite well. However, I'm still far from my peak condition. Now, I'm at least able to protect myself in this area," Zhen Qingchun said with a smile. His tone was filled with the arrogance of an old man and his tone was filled with pride.
