Chapter 553: Chapter 253: Raging Evil Fire
Zi Yuan saw that he didnât even glance at her before heading straight towards the Great Sun Golden Fruit, and she bit her lip, "Chen Xiao, arenât you going to help me up?"
"Chen Xiao?" Chen Xiao paused, "I donât know who youâre talking about!"
Zi Yuan sneered, "Your Disguise Technique is useless to us. We cultivators of the Kunlun Realm remember the opponentâs aura, not just their appearance!"
"The moment you struck just now, I sensed the fluctuation of spiritual power on you and knew it was you. Next time you disguise yourself, remember to change your aura too."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao was momentarily stunned.
Thinking about it, it made sense.
Ever since his strength increased to the Grandmaster Realm, it seemed he had developed an additional ability.
That is, he became more sensitive to the aura of every martial artist. If heâs careful enough, he can indeed notice that everyoneâs aura is slightly different.
"Arenât you going to revert to your original appearance?!" Zi Yuan said coldly, "Sneaking around, what are you up to?"
Chen Xiao thought about it, realizing he couldnât fool her, he had to revert to his original appearance.
"I didnât expect you to be so brave, daring to enter this dangerous Dragon Vein alone!" Zi Yuan teased, "Arenât you afraid of dying?"
Chen Xiao shrugged, "Doesnât all of this now prove that Iâm quite safe?"
"Not only safe, but I also saved your sorry life!"
"You... you have the sorry life!" Zi Yuan gritted her teeth and struggled to get up.
"The Great Sun Golden Fruit is mine." Chen Xiao said.
"Why?"
"Simply because I saved you, and judging by your current state, you might not be my match anyway?" Chen Xiao smirked, "Arenât you afraid Iâll be like Qiu Ren?"
"You are a disciple of the Xuantian Sect!" Zi Yuan gritted her teeth, "Do you dare touch me, the Sect Hierarchâs daughter? Our identities are worlds apart. In front of me, not kneeling and speaking is already a great gift from me to you! Do you still want to keep the Great Sun Golden Fruit all to yourself?"
"Still putting on airs in front of me, there are no others here now. You should speak more politely!" Chen Xiao said calmly, "Otherwise, I wonât mind becoming the son-in-law of the Xuantian Sect Leader, itâs worth more than being a direct disciple!"
He wonât indulge this woman; otherwise, sheâll only become more audacious.
Seeing Chen Xiaoâs aggressive gaze, Zi Yuan bit her lip, her eyes turning red, "Why so fierce? Be careful when you join the Xuantian Sect, Iâll make things difficult for you!"
Chen Xiao ignored her, instead walking up to pick the Great Sun Golden Fruit.
Seeing him pick the Great Sun Golden Fruit, Zi Yuan nearly drooled, "You canât absorb that much Great Sun Golden Fruit yourself, wonât you share a bit with me?"
"I have no merit but I have hard work; all the elders I brought are dead! Besides, pleasing the Sect Hierarchâs daughter will bring great benefits when entering the Xuantian Sect! How can you be so clueless about human relationships?"
"Without me, youâd be dead already." Chen Xiao replied flatly, "If you understood human relationships, you would give me more benefits to repay my life-saving favor."
Zi Yuan was speechless but still very envious of the Great Sun Golden Fruit, finally biting her lip decisively, "How about I trade something with you!"
"What?" Chen Xiao asked.
"An Earth-level top-grade swordsmanship." Zi Yuan blinked her big eyes and said, "This is the highest-level martial technique our Xuantian Sect disciples can practice. If you can cultivate it successfully, your strength will greatly increase!"
Chen Xiao thought about it, it was indeed a good choice.
He saw that there were five Great Sun Golden Fruits, which he couldnât refine all by himself.
What was left would be wasted.
And what heâs most lacking right now is martial skills. Powerful martial skills can greatly amplify a martial artistâs strength!
He said faintly, "Show me the swordsmanship first, Iâll take a look."
Zi Yuan gritted her teeth, "Alright."
She thought, anyway, this guy will eventually join her Xuantian Sect. As a direct disciple, he will also access this swordsmanship. So giving him an early look now doesnât matter, and she can still exchange it for the Great Sun Golden Fruit...
Sheâs truly a genius!
Most importantly, the swordsmanship she offered was indeed Earth-level top-grade swordsmanship.
But the cultivation difficulty was extremely high!
She cultivated for over a year and merely managed to reach great success in it.
As for Chen Xiao, estimating that even if he cultivated for one or two years, it would be difficult to reach the threshold of small success.
Then, she took out a scroll from a Qiankun Bag.
"This is the swordsmanship Iâm talking about, the Flying Swallow Thirteen Swords!"
Chen Xiao took the scroll and flipped through it, quickly getting captivated.
This swordsmanship is indeed intricate and mysterious, not ordinary.
The woman didnât deceive him.
"I want two Great Sun Golden Fruits." Zi Yuan said, "Thatâs my condition!"
"Alright." Chen Xiao nodded.
He directly took out two Great Sun Golden Fruits.
Zi Yuan happily accepted the Great Sun Golden Fruits, unable to hide her delight.
These are real treasures!
Even at her realm, after refining these Great Sun Golden Fruits, her cultivation can significantly increase.
Meanwhile, Chen Xiao began to sit cross-legged, took out one Great Sun Golden Fruit, and bit into it, feeling its warmth spread through every corner of his body.
Soon, his body surged with heat.
"Such strong medicinal effect!"
He deeply inhaled and started to slowly refine the energy in the Great Sun Golden Fruit.
However, he quickly discovered that in addition to the surging spiritual power within the Great Sun Golden Fruit, there was also a peculiar yang energy threatening to burst him.
The Tianyang Jue could barely suppress this feeling, yet it persisted, causing his face to flush crimson.
On the other side, Zi Yuan also began to sit cross-legged, and started to eat the Great Sun Golden Fruit.
A moment later, her delicate face turned rosy, even her exhaled breath carried a slight heat.
This medicinal power is so strong!
She was overjoyed and took three bites to swallow an entire Great Sun Golden Fruit.
But soon, she found something was amiss.
The energy contained within the Great Sun Golden Fruit carried an aggressive yang energy, and her cultivation technique couldnât expel this yang energy quickly.
Soon, this raging yang energy began running rampant within her, rapidly accumulating.
"Hooâ" She deeply exhaled, feeling a restless heat build up, even her fair skin tinted with a faint blush...
The Great Sun Golden Fruit, is its efficacy so intense?
Meanwhile, Chen Xiao, under the aid of Tianyang Jue, quickly refined one whole Great Sun Golden Fruit. Although he felt uncomfortable, he was much better off compared to Zi Yuan.
At least, the Tianyang Jue he practiced naturally complemented the Great Sun Golden Fruit.
However, he still felt residual yang energy within his body, continuously flowing to his lower abdomen.
"Little buddy, donât embarrass me now!"
Chen Xiao cleared his mind, bit by bit suppressing the rising heat, then resolutely bit down on another Great Sun Golden Fruit.
He wanted to consume three Great Sun Golden Fruits in one go, breaking through to the mid Transcendent Realm, thereby significantly boosting his combat power!
He lost track of time...
Within Chen Xiaoâs body, a muffled sound echoed.
"Boomâ"
Breakthrough!
Mid Transcendent Realm!!
His eyes couldnât conceal his delight.
But soon, his expression turned odd.
While refining three Great Sun Golden Fruits, the residual yang energy within his body started running wild, even his exhaled breath turned scorching hot, edging towards uncontrollability.
"It seems I need to expel this strange energy from my body."
He took out silver needles to detoxify himself.
But suddenly, a high-temperature warm little hand reached into his chest.
Chen Xiao was taken aback, realizing that Zi Yuan had somehow appeared in front of him, her delicate face flushed as if drunk, shockingly red.
Zi Yuanâs fiery breath sprayed onto Chen Xiao, her eyes a dreamy daze, her body glowed in an alluring blush...
