BXBX NOVEL Chapter 317: Just Marry Her
Chapter 317: Just Marry Her
Under Wang Xuan\'s psychic third eye, nothing could hide from him, gentle mysterious forces surrounded her, her new body seeming to pulse with the primal energy of all creation.
"Look not upon what is improper; I saw nothing!" Wang Xuan murmured. Even with his out-of-body third eye active, turning away was pointless.
So, he simply chose not to turn around.
"How is it, is there really a chance for the Sword Immortal to be resurrected?" Qing Mu approached from a distance.
He had seen that lightning-scorched bone with his own eyes and couldn\'t help but be skeptical. Could such an ancient bone truly transform into a living person?
Wang Xuan nodded: "She has been resurrected."
At that moment, he faintly saw the miniaturized female Sword Immortal\'s long eyelashes tremble slightly. Was she about to awaken?
Qing Mu, stunned upon hearing this, whispered, "Compared to the past, what\'s her current state?"
Wang Xuan thought for a moment and replied, "She was quite gaunt before, now she\'s rather full-bodied."
Instantly, he noticed the miniature Sword Immortal beneath the soil, her body translucent and enshrouded in immortal mist, her ears slightly reddening. Had she heard his voice?
Then, the female Sword Immortal silently manipulated immortal materials, covering her body in an enigmatic energy and white mist, and without a change in expression, she turned over.
Unaware of Wang Xuan\'s psychic third eye, she assumed his spiritual perception was strong and was now rapidly concealing her state, not wanting him to discern her exact condition.
Qing Mu, not quite understanding, showed a puzzled expression and asked, "What do you mean? The bone grew flesh and became fat, so you\'re euphemistically saying she\'s full-bodied, and she\'s turned into a little fatty?"
Beneath the ground, the miniaturized Sword Immortal, feeling indignant, let out a sound as a wisp of white mist burst through the soil, heading towards them.
Wang Xuan quickly pulled Qing Mu aside, swiftly avoiding the mist as it dissipated.
"There\'s something happening!" Qing Mu, eager to investigate, moved towards the hole created by the escaping mist to peek inside.
Wang Xuan quickly blocked him and covered the hole, still emitting thin wisps of white mist.
Qing Mu, with a serious expression, grasped the gravity of a mythical figure integrating into the modern world. He solemnly said, "Immortal, have you truly gained a flesh and blood body? Sleeping here is dangerous. There are various wild animals around; if you\'re deep in slumber, and a wolf or wild boar digs you out and drags you away, it would be troublesome."
Wang Xuan was speechless at Qing Mu\'s serious demeanor juxtaposed with his nonsensical concern.
Beneath them, the immortal mist began to stir uneasily.
"Old Qing, are you married?" Wang Xuan inquired.
"It\'s a secret!" Qing Mu refused to reveal.
"You\'ve really been single for forty years by choice!" Wang Xuan then gestured for him to be quiet, suspecting the proud Sword Immortal might want to draw her sword.
"Immortal, have you awakened? I\'ve come to fulfill our agreement ahead of time," Wang Xuan said, looking towards the ground, noticing she had turned to the side.
He added, "Just half a year and you\'ve reborn in an immortal body. In a few more months, you\'ll undoubtedly reach full physical form."
"You... saw me?!" The female Sword Immortal was incredulous. She had used immortal techniques to conceal herself, yet he could still see through to the truth.
Now, as time passed and the Old Covenant loosened, she, like other Immortals, was able to speak and faced fewer restrictions.
"Half a year and you\'ve become a transcendent being, even cultivating the Psychic Third Eye?" A clear and pleasant voice came from underground, speaking rapidly.
Wang Xuan, adamant in his denial, said, "I didn\'t see anything, just instinctively felt that this place was brimming with life. I sensed your return and felt a special closeness."
"You should step back a bit!" The female Sword Immortal was too sensitive. She trusted her intuition that a gaze had fallen on her face.
She found it somewhat incredible. Among the Immortal beings, many possessed divine eyes and magical visions, but very few could achieve a Third Eye that perceives the essence of the world after psychic projection.
Wang Xuan noticed her face turning red. She then retreated nearly ten meters underground, as if hiding from his perceived invasion of her privacy. Was the female Sword Immortal feeling shy?
"Thank you for coming here, but it\'s still a long time early. Summoning me back before the Old Covenant completely dissolves can cause great harm to you," she said softly.
According to their earlier agreement, it was supposed to be three years later, when the curtain of the era was about to fall, that she asked Wang Xuan to come here.
She continued quietly, "My true self, the one in the Great Curtain, is currently fighting for a piece of \'Heavenly Marrow\' to replenish your vital energy."
Wang Xuan nodded. He had come here feeling that the female Sword Immortal was far more trustworthy than beings like Zheng Yuantian or Demon Ancestor Qiyi.
Some supreme immortals and demons in the New World directly wanted to use him as a flesh passage, to be discarded after use, others were just blatantly bloody and cruel.
When he left last time, the female Sword Immortal had even allowed him to scrape some traces of heavenly tribulation from her bones, informing him that it could save his life at a critical moment, despite causing her harm.
"It\'s okay, I\'m not lacking Heavenly Marrow right now. You can contact her; you can return now to seize the initiative!" Wang Xuan suggested.
The Sword Immortal solemnly informed him, "Do you know what Heavenly Marrow is? It can replenish your innate lifeforce, not inferior to divine medicine! Even if your inner landscape is damaged, it gives you a chance to recover your vital energy."
Wang Xuan looked down, while the female Sword Immortal gazed up at him with a face shining brightly in earnest, appearing unwilling for him to suffer a loss. It was as if she saw him as an ignorant child, thinking he didn\'t understand these matters.
"The Sword Immortal, Wang Xuan has harvested divine medicine himself," Qingmu spoke up.
Zheng Wu, who had traveled billions of miles across realms to deliver divine medicine, couldn\'t keep this a secret forever; it was bound to leak out. So Qingmu mentioned it here.
The Sword Immortal, holding her small face, suddenly seemed a bit dazed. Her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and her flawless face briefly froze, looking adorably clueless.
Qingmu knew that Wang Xuan had access to supreme scriptures and extraordinary treasures. He lacked nothing in his cultivation journey, probably only missing a wife, as mentioned by his parents.
Being an ordinary human, Qingmu\'s thoughts could be instantly perceived by transcendent beings. Wang Xuan quickly pushed him aside, sensing Qingmu was on the verge of trouble.
Indeed, the miniature Sword Immortal captured his thoughts, and immediately, a white mist began to emanate from underground.
"Sword Immortal, I know this is your life essence, very important to you. I haven\'t used it; I\'ve brought it back for you," said Wang Xuan, taking out a crystal pendant that held the substance he had scraped from the Sword Immortal\'s true bone.
"You keep it. At a critical moment, it can project my image and block a fatal blow for you," the Sword Immortal said.
"I can\'t use your life essence to protect myself. I can take care of myself and even hunt down quite a few enemies. Hiding behind the Sword Immortal and consuming your vital substance would be too disgraceful, wouldn\'t it?"
The Sword Immortal seemed a bit lost in thought, taking back her own immortal material in response to Wang Xuan\'s urging.
Qingmu watched intently as a pale, delicate hand emerged from the hole in the earth, compelling him to marvel at how the thunder-struck bone indeed gave rise to flesh and blood.
"You definitely cultivated the Spirit Eye!" the miniaturized Sword Immortal said, swiftly withdrawing into the depths of the earth after retrieving the crystal pendant. "I\'m close to cultivating it myself and can clearly see your true nature," she emphasized.
Wang Xuan was astonished. The Spirit Eye wasn\'t something one could simply acquire through high strength; it was exceedingly rare. Yet, the Sword Immortal was nearing its cultivation?
He then realized it made sense. The Sword Immortal\'s strength was evidently formidable; otherwise, she wouldn\'t have dared to attack the red-clothed female demon upon their first encounter.
He knew well the attitude of Immortals when facing entities like Zheng Yuan Tian, Shakyamuni, and the Demon Ancestor – complete submission and trembling fear. A significant portion of the Immortals, including celestial beings from the Zheng family and various demons and demon immortals, were directly dispatched beyond the veil, obediently following orders.
The female demon seemed invincible, no less powerful than Shakyamuni or the Demon Ancestor. Yet, the Sword Immortal, born one or two thousand years later, dared to wield her sword against her, indicating her confidence.
Being a rising star, she wasn\'t currently a match for the female demon but likely possessed astonishing potential and a strong will.
"Sword Immortal, you can contact your counterpart beyond the veil. It\'s okay if there\'s no heavenly marrow. I really have a way to guide her out and merge with you," Wang Xuan urged again.
The situation was extremely complex, with various demons, immortals, and spirits emerging everywhere. It wasn\'t an exaggeration to say they were ubiquitous, with chance encounters even in city streets.
The Sword Immortal, aside from being slightly haughty, didn\'t seem dangerous, and guiding her out as a guardian figure appeared to be an excellent choice. At critical moments, she could intimidate those creatures potentially breaking through the limits!
"However, this will be hard on your body; it\'s too much of a loss for you," the miniaturized Sword Immortal said naively.
Qingmu, always with a wandering mind, signaled Wang Xuan with his eyes: Raising her from a young age, knowing her inside out, everything seems perfect – marry her!
The mini-sized Sword Immortal, capturing his thoughts, instantly wrapped Qingmu in a cloud of white mist and flung him into a thicket of vines several meters away, leaving him wincing in pain.
"Let\'s wait a bit longer; I\'m still growing. It wouldn\'t be good to merge with her just yet," she spoke softly.
Then, she warned Wang Xuan to be cautious lately. A formidable figure from beyond the veil had acquired the Feathering Banner and was currently in an invincible state, with no one daring to confront him. Crucially, this figure, possessing a supreme treasure, could open the veil and step out directly, making everyone apprehensive and fearful.
If he completely refined the Feathering Banner and commanded the immortals, towering over the demons, few would dare to disobey.
"This serious?" Wang Xuan frowned. He had heard about it in the New World, but he hadn\'t realized that a supreme treasure in the hands of a paramount expert could have such a significant impact.
"In the veil, some powerhouses are contemplating their final options. That person\'s old enemies are secretly conspiring, joining forces, fearing annihilation by him."
......
Wang Xuan, after receiving a wealth of information from the Sword Immortal, couldn\'t help but grow more solemn. If that person entered the current world, they might be able to unify all the resources of the immortal path. All immortals and demons would likely heed his commands.
Wang Xuan pondered, realizing he possessed a treasure himself. If the situation deteriorated irreversibly, he could summon an unparalleled powerhouse, arming them to confront that formidable being and turn the tide.
"Don\'t force me; let\'s each mind our own business. Otherwise, it will be a fight to the death. Even if you sit high in the heavens, I\'ll bring you down!" He thought determinedly.
Given a choice, he wouldn\'t opt for this route. Instead, he planned to explore the new path he had discovered, traverse the realm of nothingness, and find the land of truth. Once he advanced to the pinnacle of this new cultivation system, with the life-nourishing furnace in hand, he would be well-prepared to face the decaying mythological beings.
Equipping himself with a supreme treasure was the most reliable option.
"By the way, what\'s the origin of the Red-dressed Demoness?" Wang Xuan inquired, concerned about her disappearance and wanting to fully understand her background to prevent a sneak attack.
"I know she has a figure in this world. Are you thinking of hunting her down?" The Sword Immortal\'s face showed a trace of surprise, instantly alert and shifting from her previous dazed demeanor.
......
At that moment, a vast curtain appeared in the sky over New World, grand and magnificent, encompassing the entire firmament. It was much more extensive than any other curtain that had previously manifested in the area.
A figure, radiating the aura of chaos, emerged, holding an ancient banner and standing aloft in the sky. Flanking him were two unparalleled powerhouses, and in the distance, a dense throng of Immortals and Demon Immortals followed him.
This scene was astonishing, resembling the descent of a celestial court to the mortal realm.
"The Old World still holds some expectations for me, things that have yet to emerge," the man with the ancient banner commented.
