#635 - Extraordinary measures to overcome difficulties

Ling Qingyu's soul light grew increasingly intense.

Jun Wuxie felt annoyed. Regardless of whether this woman was telling the truth or not, he couldn't accept it.

In this life, besides being humbled in front of Ye Qingxue, no other woman had ever taken such initiative!

She actually wanted to suppress his soul and control his body.

However, Ling Qingyu's soul was simply too strong. Even with all his soul power focused on resisting and counterattacking, it was futile. He couldn't shake her soul imprint at all.

"What to do? Could it be that I really have to use the Summoning God-Slaying Sword?"

Jun Wuxie frantically resisted while his mind raced.

He only had two chances left to summon the God-Slaying Sword. Using it on Ling Qingyu alone would be too wasteful and not cost-effective.

Although she was a saint from the upper realm, she was a demon and possessed a physical body that was no different from humans. Even if he killed her, her body couldn't be used as a resource, yielding minimal gains.

His soul consciousness was being compressed, about to be suppressed into dormancy!

If this continued, he would soon lose control of his body!

At that moment, a flash of inspiration struck his mind.

A stream of inky-black matter energy suddenly surged into his sea of consciousness, its eerie and evil aura overwhelming.

Ling Qingyu's soul imprint instantly trembled.

This aura was too evil and bizarre, and its sudden appearance impacted her soul imprint, catching her off guard.

In that instant when she was distracted by this aura, Jun Wuxie's soul, which had been gathering power, suddenly erupted with brilliant soul light.

That soul light contained a vast amount of memory information, all of which he transformed into clear images, instantly rushing into Ling Qingyu's soul imprint, feeding back into her mind.

Immediately, Ling Qingyu's delicate body trembled violently.

The soul information presented itself in her mind, shockingly consisting entirely of unbearable scenes.

They were scenes of that Chaotic Body engaging in intimate acts with different women, playing out in her mind like a high-definition film.

Ling Qingyu was stunned.

Pure and untouched, she hadn't even held a man's hand, let alone seen such explicit scenes.

Those various shameful positions constantly assaulted her mind, causing her exquisite face to flush crimson, and her delicate body couldn't help but tremble a few times.

At this moment, Jun Wuxie seized the opportunity to break free from her soul control. While her mind was distracted, Lan Lan unleashed a super-godly technique, instantly fleeing far away.

"Ling Qingyu, here's an action movie for you. Remember to pay next time we meet. Goodbye!"

Jun Wuxie and Lan Lan rushed out of the valley and disappeared into the towering mountains, leaving only the echo of his voice.

"Shameless! Lewd!"

Ling Qingyu regained her senses, forcibly erasing the soul memory images from her mind and expelling the Dark Curse from her body. Her entire beautiful face was flushed red, even her delicate ears and snow-white neck were completely red.

Her deep, beautiful eyes were filled with shame and anger as she chased after them with a cold face.

After chasing for a distance, she realized that she had actually lost them.

How could that Chaotic Body's speed be so fast?

She had witnessed the speed of that strange beast before, and it shouldn't be much faster than her using a Swiftness Talisman.

But this time, its speed was clearly much faster than before!

"You can't escape!"

She adjusted her state of mind, the flush on her face gradually fading, and her eyes regained their depth and composure. She began to deduce in her mind using secret techniques.

"Just who are you? A saint from the lower realm, how could you possess the Dark Curse? Moreover, you can actually control it, preventing yourself from being corroded by it..."

During the deduction process, Ling Qingyu's state of mind remained difficult to completely calm.

This was too unbelievable, overturning her understanding.

Before coming to this world, if someone had told her that there was someone in the Saint Realm who could do these things, she would have scoffed and dismissed it as a fantasy.

...

Lan Lan carried Jun Wuxie, running wildly at super-godly speed. On top of that, Jun Wuxie also activated a Swiftness Talisman. The combination of the two speeds was incredibly fast.

This was also the reason why Ling Qingyu lost them.

She simply couldn't imagine that Yi Jianfeng and several divine beasts of the ancient clan had already died at Jun Wuxie's hands, and he had obtained the Swiftness Talismans from them.

Now, Jun Wuxie had more than a dozen Swiftness Talismans in his possession.

He didn't even think about how far he had run or how many areas of power he had crossed.

It wasn't until the energy of a Swiftness Talisman was exhausted and Lan Lan was exhausted that they stopped in a mountain forest composed of strange peaks.

The peaks here were strangely shaped, looking like a stone forest from afar, filled with the power of domains.

Lan Lan collapsed on the ground, absorbing a large amount of stored energy to recover after stopping.

Jun Wuxie carefully examined the surrounding environment to determine if there were any dangers lurking.

"That woman Ling Qingyu shouldn't be able to find this place in a short time, right? We've run at least hundreds of thousands of miles. This area is full of domains, and the domains here are particularly dense, which should buy me a lot of time..."

Could he buy half a day?

He thought he should be able to.

He couldn't delay any longer. He had to fuse the Heart of Chaos immediately!

He released his Primordial Avatar to be on guard outside.

Then, he communicated with the Everlasting Divine Palace, contacting Vermilion Bird: "Aunt You, I'm ready. Let's switch hearts now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman wearing a Vermilion Bird feather robe appeared before him.

Although he had seen Vermilion Bird's human form before, he was still deeply amazed at this moment.

She was noble, mature, and peerless, belonging to the kind of mature and intellectual beauty, with a hint of majesty, like an empress.

"The world outside is still beautiful..."

Vermilion Bird looked at the mountains and rivers, the green hills and clear waters, the clouds rolling and spreading, and a little emotion and sigh appeared on her beautiful face.

Jun Wuxie was stunned by her expression and said, "Aunt You, you are a Great Emperor realm expert. If you like the environment outside, you can come out and see it often. It shouldn't be like this, right?"

"If I come out often, the existence in the tower will definitely cause trouble. Now that the princess has temporarily left, my responsibility is even greater."

"When will you and Qingxue be able to leave the Town-Universe Tower? Are you going to guard it forever?"

"The princess and I must have one person constantly guarding the Town-Universe Tower. The princess's situation is relatively special. Her life soul is closely connected to the Town-Universe Tower, so she cannot leave for a long time, otherwise it will be detrimental to her recovery and will also affect the suppression effect of the Town-Universe Tower."

"If I collect all the divine gold in the future and completely repair the Town-Universe Tower, will Qingxue still not be able to leave?"

"Yes, at least she can't leave for a long time, unless your realm reaches a certain stage where you can fuse half of the Nine Heavens' essence blood. At that time, the princess will be able to leave without any worries and won't have to stay in the tower all the time."

Jun Wuxie: ...

Fuse half of the Nine Heavens' essence blood?

When will that happen?

"Your current situation is very dangerous. The princess discussed with me when she left that one person needs to be by your side to prevent you from being sensed by certain existences and erased. When the princess returns, I will come out and guard you."

"What?" Jun Wuxie was stunned for a moment and said, "Aunt You, are you saying that you want to come out and guard me? What do you mean, do you mean leaving the Town-Universe Tower for a long time to protect me?"

"Yes, Aunt You will follow you then. Wherever you go, Aunt You will be there."

Jun Wuxie was completely stunned. Aunt You was a Great Emperor realm expert. Wouldn't that mean he could walk unhindered in the heavens?

Vermilion Bird saw through his thoughts and couldn't help but smile and say, "Young Master, I'm following you only to prevent you from being sensed by certain existences. I won't interfere with other things. If you encounter difficulties, you still have to solve them yourself. I won't take action, and no one else can see me except you."

"Okay..."

Jun Wuxie knew that he was indeed thinking too much. The kind of psychology he had just had was just a conditioned reflex.

If he really relied on Vermilion Bird's divine power, what would be the difference between him and a flower in a greenhouse? Growing up smoothly all the way, without hardships, how could he become a true supreme powerhouse in the future?

"But I don't understand, why does Aunt You say that I will be sensed by certain existences?"

"Because you have cultivated the Taiji Star Sea and fused the Dark Energy, and these energies are related to the Dark Curse. We must guard against any possibility and cannot allow any accidents. We will watch your battles with your contemporaries, your life and death, as we go. It all depends on your own abilities. We have expectations in our hearts for whether you can reach the height we expect, but if you are erased by those existences, then even the only glimmer of hope will be cut off..."

"Isn't it as exaggerated as you said? For those existences, a small cultivator like me is not even as good as an ant. Would they pay attention to me?"

Vermilion Bird shook her head and said, "Master was able to notice you in the long river of future time. Wouldn't other existences notice you too?"

...

Jun Wuxie didn't know how to refute. He knew that the Master Vermilion Bird was talking about should be the owner of the Town-Universe Tower, most likely Ye Qingxue's relative, who should be a supreme powerhouse-level existence.

"Is the one Aunt You mentioned Qingxue's father?"

Vermilion Bird nodded and said, "Yes, he was the strongest human in the heavens back then, and I am the Emperor of the Vermilion Bird clan. Our clans all respected him as Master because we admired him very much. He led our clans to fight for a glimmer of hope for the heavens."

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but be curious: "What kind of person was he?"

Vermilion Bird heard this and thought for a while and said, "For the princess, he was a strict and unqualified father; for the common people, he was the belief in their hearts; for me, he was a strong person worthy of respect and trust; for you, he was the person who changed your life."

"Is he... still alive?"

Vermilion Bird shook her head and sighed: "Perhaps he is, perhaps he is not..."

Jun Wuxie didn't continue the topic. After a moment of silence, he said, "Come on, I'm ready!"

Zhuque nodded, her delicate hand opening to reveal a heart, the very Heart of Chaos.

With a stroke of her finger, she cut a huge gash across Jun Wuxie's chest, golden blood spurting out.

Jun Wuxie felt a sharp pain and his face twitched involuntarily. He quickly sealed the blood flow by touching several points near the wound.

"Bear with it."

Zhuque said. When he nodded, she reached out and sucked his own beating divine heart out of his chest.

At that instant, the pain was indescribable.

Jun Wuxie clenched his fists, his face twisted in agony, sweat pouring down like rain.

A large amount of blood sprayed from his chest cavity. He felt his vision darken, and the strength in his body seemed to vanish instantly, his consciousness blurring.

Below the Saint Realm, losing one's heart was equivalent to losing one's power, being unable to use the blood energy within the body, especially for those who cultivated the physical body.

At that moment, Zhuque swiftly replaced it with the Heart of Chaos, releasing life essence with gentle power to repair the wound and help him stabilize his fading soul.

Jun Wuxie vaguely felt a heart beating slowly in his chest, different from his previous one, causing the Chaos Bloodline and Chaos Origin Bone within his body to resonate.

However, his physical body and the heart did not seem to be completely integrated, and were currently in the process of adapting.

This process proceeded slowly.

One hour, two hours...

His consciousness gradually recovered as the heart and physical body continued to adapt, the degree of integration increasing.

Each beat of the heart sent vigorous blood flowing through his body, greatly increasing the speed of his blood energy circulation.

This powerful heart was even more compatible with his physical body than Yue Yao's divine heart!

When the heart and physical body were perfectly integrated, mysterious runes emerged from within the heart, evolving into mysterious characters that merged into his bloodline.

At that moment, a large amount of information flooded into his sea of consciousness.

"Chaos Bloodline Cultivation Insights and Supreme Inheritance?"

His spirits lifted. The information included not only cultivation insights, but also bloodline inheritance divine abilities, and they were divine abilities he had never awakened!
