What did I say? Wang Xuan regretted. In such a desolate place, under a terrifying atmosphere, he absolutely couldn't speak recklessly.
There was no sound at all. A round of pale moon suddenly appeared in the sky, and the dim ruins were overgrown with weeds, the scene becoming more and more strange.
The woman had disheveled hair, covering her face, floating in the night sky, less than a few feet away from Wang Xuan, her bright red shoes right in front of him.
Wang Xuan's heart was pounding. Was this the residual spiritual energy of a female cultivator? And why did the moon come out? It had nothing to do with brightness, more like a pale face without any color.
He stopped talking. Silence was golden at this critical moment, and he needed to remain unchanged in the face of change.
He operated the ancient Taoist method, guiding the mysterious factor from nothingness, little by little, drifting down among the eerie and terrifying ruins.
The woman in mid-air also became quiet, just hanging there, her white clothes standing out in the night, although she had a slender figure and looked beautiful, her long hair covered her face, making her somewhat like a faceless ghost, silent and eerie.
Wang Xuan waited for a moment, but the woman in the pale moonlight remained silent, motionless, just confronting him like this.
He felt that waiting like this was not a solution. He spoke seriously and sincerely, "I didn't mean to offend. I just accidentally entered this inner world. As a person from a later era, my words and actions may not conform to the etiquette of the pre-Qin period, but it is not because I disrespect it. It's just that times have changed, and people nowadays talk like this. If you feel that there is a need for any formalities, I can make up for it."
However, in the overgrown ruins, it was still silent, and the woman had no reaction.
Wang Xuan felt that he should do something. A breeze blew under his feet, and maybe these residual spiritual energies from the past would dissipate.
He wanted to bypass the woman and leave this ruin.
Under his influence, the debris on the ground and some partially collapsed walls disappeared, but the woman remained suspended.
And she was silent, in the moment he bypassed her, she suddenly appeared in front of him again, her bright red shoes level with his eyebrows.
Wang Xuan realized that something was wrong. A chill ran down his back. There was really a problem with the inner world. This woman was not right.
How did she appear just now? A thunderbolt struck from the sky, dazzling, and then she appeared.
If she was a demon or a ghost, she should be afraid of thunderbolts. What was her situation?
Was it a more concentrated residual spiritual energy? Wang Xuan avoided her and walked towards the ruins, but the woman followed him, always hanging in front of his eyebrows.
Wang Xuan felt a headache. Was he being watched and locked onto? What did she want to do? Thinking carefully, he became fearless again. People had been dead for three thousand years, so what could these residual spiritual energies do?
He didn't believe in ghosts. He walked out of the ruins, focused on practicing the Golden Body Technique, pretending not to see her. The power in his body circulated, and specks of golden light flashed in his eyes.
His spiritual power was strong, and he remained calm and composed. If there were really ghosts, the strong yang energy in his body should be terrifying, after all, he was young and full of vitality, not afraid of ghosts.
Wang Xuan was very calm, practicing the Golden Body Technique. The movements of this physical technique were naturally large, and once he accidentally touched the woman in the red shoes and white clothes.
With a swish, she disappeared and was gone.
Wang Xuan remained calm, without any joy. He followed his own rhythm, not surprised by strange things. It was strange to defeat oneself!
His strength was steadily increasing, standing in the empty time, which was extremely important for the pre-Qin Taoists, as it was the source of their power.
Not to mention the current Wang Xuan, as time passed, his body trembled, and a faint golden color appeared when he practiced the powerful physical technique.
Until he was extremely tired again and stopped, he needed to operate the root method to guide the mysterious factor.
Suddenly, he sensed something abnormal. A cold breeze blew around his neck, and only then did he realize that the woman who had been hanging in front of him had disappeared.
He was too focused on practicing the Golden Body Technique and ignored everything around him. Now, when he turned around in astonishment, he found the woman in a white dress fluttering and her red shoes dazzling right behind him.
"There's wind..." This made his heart tremble. The situation was getting worse. Could the residual spiritual energy of the female cultivator intervene in the inner world?
He turned around, but the woman followed him, always moving with him, always hanging behind him, her red shoes almost touching his shoulders.
A quick look at "pawread.com" will leave you more fulfilled.
This was truly unsettling, almost unbearable for him.
He began to analyze what was happening. In theory, when a person dies, they leave nothing behind.
The female cultivator died three thousand years ago, and if she could come back to life, she wouldn't have waited until now.
"Residual spiritual energy..." he was sure the problem lay here. Was it originally scattered in the inner world, or was it brought in by him recently?!
When he thought of the latter possibility, Wang Xuan became a little frightened. He shattered the Feather Transformation Stone, and the mysterious factor and the residual spiritual energy of the female cultivator rushed in, causing the anomaly?
In theory, it was impossible for a person to come back to life after death, but the inner world was different from the mortal world. It was still incomprehensible even to the ancients, and there was a possibility of anomalies here.
"Whether you were originally here or brought in by me, what do you want and what are your demands? Can you make it clear to me instead of just following me like this?" Wang Xuan turned his back to her, not turning around again. He really wanted to figure out what this residual spiritual energy wanted to do.
He didn't have any romantic thoughts. If he had any thoughts like "A woman in her thirties is like a golden brick, a woman in her thirties is like a fairy," and if the residual spiritual energy of the female cultivator did indeed have serious problems, he would probably be killed immediately!Unfortunately, the woman remained silently behind him, creating a chilling scene. Her hair was disheveled, she wore a white dress and red shoes, and her face was hidden, making her look like a hanged ghost under the pale moonlight.
After several attempts to communicate with her, Wang Xuan gave up. If something was going to happen, so be it. He didn't care anymore.
In the Inner World, mysterious substances fell. When Wang Xuan's spirit regained its vitality, he began to practice the Golden Body Technique again, regardless of the woman floating behind him.
Years passed like this. Wang Xuan felt as if he had been there for seven or eight years, and he had advanced the fourth level of the Golden Body Technique to the late stage!
His strength had truly improved significantly from the late stage of the third level to the late stage of the fourth level. Occasionally, a golden glow would flash in the depths of his eyes.
"An ordinary dagger might not even be able to pierce my flesh," Wang Xuan's cold heart warmed up. Every time he entered the Inner World, his strength would greatly increase. To him, this place was mysterious and unknown, filled with hope and powerful forces. The falling mysterious substances could potentially change the declining state of the old techniques.
In the pre-Qin period, the old techniques were particularly brilliant. Powerful practitioners could confront forces at the transformation level. There were also various myths and legends in the early days of Taoism.
As time passed, there were not many people who still followed the path of the old techniques in this era. It was extremely difficult to even produce a master, let alone a Transcendent.
Soon, the Inner World began to shake and became unstable. Wang Xuan knew that his time was up, and he was about to leave this desolate place.
The two transformation stones allowed him to stay here for seven or eight years, which was of incredible value.
Wang Xuan spoke solemnly, "I'm leaving. If my strength allows, I will try to protect your physical body after I leave, and I will try not to let them mess around!"
He was about to leave, and he hoped that this woman wouldn't cause any trouble, allowing him to leave smoothly.
Of course, he wasn't just saying this casually. He sincerely believed that if his old techniques were successful in the future and he could intervene in the experiments under the Greater Khingan Range, he would definitely help. He truly felt that the female practitioner was pitiful.
Boom!
In the world, a dazzling thunderbolt streaked across the sky. The pale moon in the sky fell and appeared directly behind the woman, turning into a blood moon, making her appear even more eerie.
As the thunderbolts intertwined, the woman in front of the blood moon raised her head. Her long hair fluttered, revealing her true face. She was indeed a female practitioner. Her skin was as white as snow and crystal clear, and her beautiful face was almost unreal, like a banished immortal. She was flawless.
She was dressed in a white dress and red shoes, floating in front of the blood moon. She had a unique aura that was somewhere between an immortal and a demon, leaving a deep impression on Wang Xuan.
A woman who had been dead for three thousand years was looking at Wang Xuan in the Inner World. In the end, he didn't know if it was his illusion, or if it was the distortion and blurring of the light and shadow before the Inner World disappeared, but he seemed to see the woman smiling.
She was close to being an immortal and a demon, with an unparalleled style and an incredibly unique aura. While Wang Xuan found her stunningly beautiful, he also felt a chill run down his spine, as he found her eerie.
The next moment, he completely left the Inner World. He suddenly opened his eyes, and for a moment, it seemed as if two faint golden lights had flashed across the room.
Wang Xuan got up, the golden glow in the depths of his eyes faded. He could feel his own strength in reality. His physical technique had indeed advanced to the late stage of the fourth level of the Golden Body Technique.
He took a dagger and swiped it across his arm. It was quickly repelled, leaving only a faint bloodstain. His powerful vitality surged, and the blood quickly disappeared.
The fourth level of the Golden Body Technique not only greatly improved the toughness of his flesh and blood, but also made his spiritual power more vigorous and powerful. In addition, it made his body's recovery ability even more astonishing. His physical condition had improved overall.
As for his attack power, he didn't even need to think about it. It was far superior to before!
Wang Xuan smiled. There was no reason not to be happy with such an achievement. He felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, and his mind and body were clear and joyful.
What's more, because of the two transformation stones, he had found a feasible path. The slow-acting old techniques might be able to shine again on him.
"Are the legends of great monks transforming into rainbows in some thousand-year-old temples equivalent to transformation?"
"In some famous Taoist mountains and their ancestral temples, there are always legends of immortals transforming and flying. If nothing goes wrong, they should have left behind some treasures."
Wang Xuan believed that wherever a transformation explosion had occurred, there would most likely be transformation stones left behind.
So, that night, he went to sleep with a satisfied smile. When he woke up at dawn, he was still smiling. However, he soon had to quickly get dressed and wash up, because Little Wang had to go to work today. He had only taken one day off, and if he didn't leave soon, he would be late.
