Chapter 255 - 174: The Golden Qi Movement, The Mysterious Woman’s Silhouette!_2
The woman’s face was filled with excitement as she spoke two words.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan was a bit groggy, and his consciousness was foggy.
A few moments passed, and Jiang Yuan appeared utterly shaken.
It was her! he thought.
But who is she? He suddenly found himself utterly confounded.
Jiang Yuan strained to recall, tapping his forehead several times, but the image of the woman in his mind only grew more vague.
It faded to insignificance and then vanished entirely, and with it vanished even her gender.
Her memory had been thoroughly wiped from his mind.
Jiang Yuan’s eyes bulged even wider, horrified to the core.
Setting aside the memory of the woman, he remembered everything else clearly as if it had just happened.
What kind of horrifying entity was she that I can’t even retain a memory of her?
Jiang Yuan fixated on Shu Xiaoxiao as the white rays of spiritual power assimilated into her body.
Although he had forgotten the memory he had just seen, watching these little lights, he had some guesses.
That must have been the true spirit of Shu Xiaoxiao’s past life reincarnated.
And now, she was gathering the true spirit of her former life.
Jiang Yuan was about to awaken her to ask about what was happening.
Suddenly, a gurgling sound emitted and the Spiritual Sea above Shu Xiaoxiao’s head emerged abruptly.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan conjured the power of heaven and earth in an instant.
He obscured the strange event of her Spiritual Sea and quietly awaited the completion of her breakthrough.
After half a moment, her spiritual aura began to wane gradually.
Then she slowly opened her eyes, looking at Jiang Yuan, and smiled.
“Young Master!”
[Name]: Shu Xiaoxiao
[Realm]: Spiritual Sea Realm, Sixth Tier
[Innate Qi Movement]: Sword Immortal reincarnation (gold), Peerless Fairy (gold), Devouring Heaven and Earth (gold), Rising Phoenix (purple), Deep Blessings (blue), Innocence (blue), Excellent Aptitude (blue), Above-average Understanding (green), Body of Wood (green).
[Devouring Heaven and Earth]: A secret technique comprehended from a supreme existence that can reverse fate. It allows one’s physique to evolve continuously, eventually being able to devour all things in the world for their own use.
Seeing the changes on her status panel, Jiang Yuan was even more stunned.
Her current changes are clearly related to the integration of those true spirits.
Thus, Jiang Yuan called out to her.
“Xiaoxiao, come here!”
“Yes, Young Master!”
Shu Xiaoxiao obediently nodded.
She stood up and came to Jiang Yuan’s side and kneel in front of him.
Jiang Yuan stretched out his hand to pat her head, and Shu Xiaoxiao’s expression was identical to before.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan felt somewhat relieved.
If someone unknown reached out to touch her head, no matter how she repressed, she’d surely resist.
“Young Master, what’s wrong?” Shu Xiaoxiao looked at Jiang Yuan’s expression and asked confusedly.
“The secret technique you just used must have come from the memory fragments in your mind!” said Jiang Yuan as he stroked her hair.
“Yes!” Shu Xiaoxiao nodded and then exclaimed with surprise, “Young Master, you’re amazing! You can even see that!”
Then she continued, “I have been having some memory fragments in my mind recently, among which recorded the secret technique just used, and an odd woman.”
“But there is one strange thing, no matter how many times I see her face, I can’t remember what she looks like!”
Jiang Yuan lightly said, “She should be your past life! You shouldn’t use that secret technique anymore. When you utilize this technique, you attract her true spirit!”
“Maybe one day, you will no longer be you!”
Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head slightly, “Young Master, after my experiment just now, there’s not much chance of that happening. I just glanced through her memories and it did not affect me!”
Jiang Yuan frowned slightly, “Even the slightest possibility can become reality!”
Shu Xiaoxiao stubbornly looked at Jiang Yuan, saying in her heart.
Young Master, without using this technique, how can I catch up to you!
Then she spoke again, “Even if I don’t use this technique, I will constantly see her memory fragments.”
“Perhaps one day, after achieving a higher realm in cultivation, a floodgates effect would occur, and her memories will flood in.”
“I may not be able to digest those memories in a short time, and could be influenced by them.”
She stared into Jiang Yuan’s eyes again, “Young Master, don’t worry! It will always be me who is here. I’ll always be your little maid!”
“Right now, as I am slowly digesting these memory fragments, it helps me maintain who I truly am!”
“Since she was my past life, she shouldn’t influence me. I will only be myself, never anyone else!”
Hearing Shu Xiaoxiao speak with such conviction, Jiang Yuan heaved a long sigh.
He was also unsure how to handle this situation; Shu Xiaoxiao’s words were not groundless.
Sometimes, it’s better to let it flow freely than to block it.
He had no idea what would happen when those unparalleled beings reincarnated.
He also lacked experience in such matters, many of the ancient texts he had seen had little to do with true spirits.
Most of the time, he had to rely on his conjectures.
Therefore, Jiang Yuan slowly said, “Alright then! Remember to inform me if anything unusual occurs. I wouldn’t want you to turn into someone else.”
Shu Xiaoxiao suddenly beamed, rubbing her face against Jiang Yuan’s hand.
“Don’t worry, Young Master! That won’t happen! I will always be myself!”
Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, “Remember, don’t take it lightly, if you can gradually consume those memories, don’t rush to achieve it!”
“Yes, Young Master!”
Shu Xiaoxiao obediently nodded, then she stood up and retreated to one side.
“Young Master, I won’t disturb you in your cultivation!”
Jiang Yuan smiled, “Never mind that, you can help me with a test.”
He had gained a lot from his sudden insight over the past three days.
Especially his understanding of space.
In front of his eyes, the layers of space appeared like a thousand-layer cake, he could see layer upon twisted layer of spatial ripples.
He stared at the spatial waves in front of him, and when they overlapped and oscillated, he moved slightly forward.
In an instant.
He moved from one end of the cave to the other.
Seeing this, Shu Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Young Master, is this… the shifting technique?”
Jiang Yuanen calmly said, “Far from it! Right now, I can only make use of the spatial rules. I must use the nodes that space would explode at any moment to perform a temporary teleport.”
“The rumored shifting, even if it’s a small movement, I need to make a further step, mastering the rules of space!”
He shook his head slowly, “This is too difficult! At least it’s hard at my current realm! Now we can only make use of the spatial oscillation for a short teleport, and the consumption is large!”
He quietly felt the changes within his body.
After three days, his transformation had fully completed.
Compared to when he first achieved the Divine Bridge Realm, there was a significant change.
All the spiritual power inside his body had transformed into Dharma-power, each move filled with vast divine power.
His physical body and qi and blood had transformed considerably compared to before.
After the transformation, his divine soul had also become stronger. The physical features of his soul were clearly presenting themselves; after another step, the divine soul would transform into the primordial spirit.
The formation of the primordial spirit was the biggest hurdle for the manifestation of Dharma-nature.
Numerous great cultivators at the Divine Bridge Realm were stopped by this barrier.
Among them was Kong Nian, who reached the peak of the Divine Bridge Realm.
