Chapter 149 - 36: Holy Woman’s Gratitude, Evolving Sword Technique, Consuming Ginseng Fruit, Second Stage of Core Formation_2
Her body was like a shattered porcelain piece.
A cold blue glow emerged on her skin, her raven bloodline began to roll, and the next moment, a faint golden sword qi was frantically rampaging through her meridians, it seemed that her injuries were not completely healed yet.
“Cough…
Moving her wound, Yin Nanyu couldn’t help but cough.
Her own injuries were still quite serious.
She sighed, changed her clothes, and opened the door.
She found that Zhao Huai had disappeared at some point.
Until there was a “splash” sound from the backyard.
She walked to the backyard gate, peered through the window, and saw Zhao Huai carrying a water bucket, continuously pouring water into a pool.
Steam soon rose from the pool.
Hearing the door being pushed open, Zhao Huai looked back and smiled, “Changed already? I saw that you still have injuries on your body, so I poured some water for you. Taking a hot spring should make you feel better.”
He saw that Yin Nanyu looked haggard, with pale lips and a face showing only fatigue and weakness after their escape and travels.
In Zhao Huai’s view, she would be an important figure under Yan Country in the future, so how could he bear to see her suffer from her injuries?
“Thank you…”
Yin Nanyu’s lips moved, her eyes filled with gratitude.
Zhao Huai’s image in her eyes suddenly grew taller, and an unusual feeling rose from the bottom of her heart.
After all, nobodv had ever treated her so well before.
Sect members treated her with only awe and respect.
People in the world, on the other hand, viewed her with disgust and discrimination.
Yin Nanyu stepped her jade feet adorned with a silver ring into the hot spring pool tentatively. Then, she immersed her entire leg in, followed by the rest of her body.
Her body curled up, the golden sword qi was still piercingly cold, and she couldn’t help but shiver.
In the pool, a rich spiritual qi transformed into an invisible hand, enveloping her body tightly.
It weakened the effect of the golden sword qi and gradually dissipated it.
Her body gradually regained its strength, and her injuries slowly healed under the nourishment of the spiritual spring.
“Feeling better?”
Zhao Huai asked with concern.
Upon hearing this, Yin Nanyu paused, then nodded like a pecking chick: “It’s… it’s fine, as long as I have a safe environment, I can recover.”
“I’ve got a healing pill here; I’ll put it here for you.”
Upon Zhao Huai saying this, a pill appeared in his palm, and he handed it over.
Yin Nanyu took the pill, her red lips moved as if wanting to say something, but she didn’t know what to say.
She was just moved by Zhao Huai’s presence in her heart.
“Thank you, I really don’t know how to repay you.”
As Zhao Huai was about to leave, Yin Nanyu whispered, and this was her heartfelt words.
Zhao Huai turned around, looked at Yin Nanyu, who had a cold temperament and a head of wet silken hair, which exuded charm, and smiled gently: “Just focus on healing your wounds. That’s the best way to repay me.” After saying this, he entered the house, leaving her lying by the pool in a daze.
In fact, Zhao Huai was not wrong.
He felt that having Yin Nanyu by his side would give the Restoration of the Yan an extra chance of success.
He could clearly tell that this woman was very intelligent and would be quite helpful for future development.
As for the issue of loyalty and betrayal, he was not too worried. To him, these concerns were unfounded.
He didn’t even know what realm he would reach by the time Yan Country was truly restored.
All tricks would be in vain in front of absolute power.
Now, they needed to rely more on her for the future restoration of the nation.
General Hu and Old Song were far from enough.
Zhao Huai sat down.
Finally, the surroundings quietened.
He now had time to take stock of this journey’s gains.
He would let others handle the grand plan of the nation’s restoration, while he would only serve as a symbol and a behind-the-scenes promoter, continuing his cultivation.
First and foremost was the top-tier magic called “Ten Thousand Swords Return to Sect.”
Zhao Huai sat in the chair, circulating his magic power.
Spiritual qi from all directions was absorbed and transformed into energy sword shadows, hovering parallel to the ground in mid-air.
The swords hummed, their qi forming an aura, and their sharp light flashed on each sword.
With the increasing volume of absorbed spiritual qi, the number of energy swords grew.
Zhao Huai felt that his True Vigor was almost depleted.
This magic called Ten Thousand Swords Return to Sect, was taught to him by the Eternal Taoist Temple.
However, the power of its use depended on his body’s storage of True Vigor.
At this point, Zhao Huai had not yet reached the level of Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Sect, but rather, he was more like a Thousand Swords Returning to Sect.
With the aid of the two destinies, [Sword Skill Genius] and [Crystal Clear Sword Heart],
The Ten Thousand Swords Return to Sect evolved time and time again and was quickly mastered and understood by him.
At the same time, the upper limits of this magic were unlocked, allowing him to derive other sword moves from it.
Ten Thousand Swords Return to Sect was a Circulation of Qi magic, with qi controlling the sword, and the secret was to split.
Why couldn’t splitting be replaced by concentration?
In this way, wouldn’t the power of ten thousand swords be concentrated at one point?
With this thought, Zhao Huai immediately began evolving the technique in his mind.
The small spirit-being wielding sword moves in his mind, Zhao Huai silently observed.
All of a sudden,
The various sword qi shadows floating around the small spiritual-being’s Circulation of Qi were influenced by Zhao Huai’s thoughts and overlapped completely.
With each sword qi that attached itself to the small spirit-being, its power increased.
Until all the sword qi entered its flesh body. With this move completed,
As the small spirit-being swung its sword,
A loud “boom” echoed!
The sea of consciousness transformed into a light curtain, and the small spirit-being dispersed, which showed the immense power of this sword move..
