Chapter 211: Settling Fu Xue, the Inner Realm Cave Heaven
Xue Yu was killed!!!
When the Blood Demon was killed.
In the distance, a Six Realms demon tribe that flew over at high speed was so shocked its eyes almost popped out.
The Blood Demon's strength was extremely formidable, its trump cards numerous, and its cultivation was at the mid-stage of the Six Realms.
But it was actually killed in an instant!
How could he dare to believe this?
"Retreat!"
Seeing Fu Xue already notice him, this Six Realms demon tribe hesitated not at all and retreated at high speed.
While retreating, it also didn't forget to pass the message to the other two Six Realms demon tribes.
"What, Xue Yu was killed?"
The other two Six Realms demon tribes, upon receiving the news, immediately halted, their eyes full of disbelief.
"Could it be that humans have deployed the Seven Realms?"
These two Six Realms demon tribes, frightened, naturally dared not go over there again.
"Tie Lu, what's going on? I didn't sense the aura of the Seven Realms; how was Xue Yu killed?"
"With Xue Yu's strength, even facing the Seven Realms, there was a chance to escape; how could it be killed?"
Soon, the three Six Realms gathered together.
The other two Six Realms each voiced their doubts.
"The human Six Realms is Fu Xue!"
The Six Realms who personally witnessed Xue Yu being killed spoke in a low voice.
Fu Xue!
These two words made the other two Six Realms' hearts tighten.
Fu Xue had great prestige at the Ancient Road Node.
Especially for these Six Realms or lower demon tribes, her name was too renowned.
Before, a Six Realms demon tribe had died at her hands.
"Even if it's Fu Xue, with Xue Yu's strength, it wouldn't be killed in a single blow!"
"Xue Yu has so many trump cards; how could it be killed so easily?"
The other two Six Realms still thought it unlikely.
"Lu Xun, it's Lu Xun who teamed up with her."
Tie Lu said.
"What? Lu Xun?"
"What qualifications does he have to meddle in the Six Realms battle!"
The two Six Realms believed it even less.
"No, Lu Xun has a method...."
Tie Lu was the second to arrive at the Storm Spirit Realm, having personally experienced the difficulty of Lu Xun's Immobilization Spell.
"Immobilization method? No wonder..."
"If so, we shouldn't linger in this Spirit Realm."
The other two Six Realms then understood.
These three demon Six Realms almost simultaneously had the intention to retreat.
Although they still had three people, while Fu Xue only had one.
However, their combat power and trump cards were inferior to Xue Yu's; if they were once affected by Lu Xun's Immobilization Spell, their outcome might not be much better than Xue Yu's.
"This Lu Xun will sooner or later become a major threat to our clan."
"Report this matter to the Holy Hall and see what the Holy Hall says."
The three demon Six Realms quietly retreated.
"Teacher, these are all his belongings; I give them to you."
On the other side, Lu Xun collected the items that Xue Yu burst out, packed them into a storage bag, and handed them all to Fu Xue.
The Blood Demon, as a noble among the demon tribe, had too many good things on him.
The dark energy carried on his person amounted to over a thousand cubic units.
Upon reaching the Six Realms, the difficulty of obtaining dark energy greatly decreases.
However, the Six Realms' consumption and demand for dark energy are also enormous.
Like Fu Xue's full-power strike that used her trump cards just now, without several dozen cubic units of dark energy, it cannot be replenished at all.
Not mentioning Fu Xue, the chaotic power expended in Lu Xun's recent burst also requires several cubic units of dark energy to replenish.
To some extent, the strong's battle is about money.
If one does not store enough dark energy on their person and cannot replenish consumption, once their strength is exhausted, there is only a dead end.
Lu Xun does not intend to take any of these things.
After all, without Fu Xue, if he wants to go back, he must use the Heavenly Way Talisman; where could he still counter-kill the Blood Demon?
"No need, you keep it."
Fu Xue lowered her gaze slightly, glanced lightly at the items in Lu Xun's hand, did not accept them, but let Lu Xun keep them himself.
"Teacher, this won't do!"
Lu Xun not only did not withdraw his hand, but also pushed the storage bag forward again, his eyes flashing with sincere light.
He curled the corner of his mouth, showing a warm smile: "You came from afar to save me; as a student I am deeply grateful, and how could I feel good about monopolizing the spoils?"
Splash—
Fu Xue's slender fingers lightly flicked open the bag's mouth, after a quick check she took out a few items, then tossed the storage bag back to Lu Xun: "All right, the rest is yours."
Okay.
Lu Xun grinned and caught the bag deftly,
Fu Xue then sat cross-legged, took out Dark Energy and began to regulate her breath; her icy, exquisite profile in the faint light seemed even more otherworldly.
'Teacher,'
Lu Xun stepped closer a few paces, squatted beside Fu Xue, his face full of eager smile:
"If you have nothing else to do next, let's act together; I have a damn powerful ocular divine ability—when I search for things, I find them spot on..."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xue opened her beautiful eyes: "I can take you for a month."
'Take him for a month?'
Lu Xun realized that Fu Xue, in her role as teacher, was sacrificing her own time to bring him along.
"Well, Teacher, I want to cooperate with you; if you don't trust me, just take me along for a month first, and we'll split whatever we gain evenly—how about that?"
Lu Xun came up with a compromise.
'One month isn't enough.'
This time he wasn't just hoping to obtain some higher-grade spiritual items and opportunities through Fu Xue.
He also wanted to raise Fu Xue's favorability.
Only then would there be hope of binding Fu Xue.
Fu Xue gazed at him silently, her eyes seeming able to see into one's heart.
After a long while, she gave a slight nod:
'Yes.'
Having said that, Fu Xue closed her eyes again to regulate her breath, and said no more.
'Alright.'
'Is she eating ten-thousand-year-old ice?'
'Truly aloof.'
No matter what, Fu Xue's side is settled.
Seeing her close her eyes again to recover, Lu Xun stopped disturbing her and instead sat aside, likewise beginning to recover.
With Lu Xun's recovery speed, not long after, his consumption was fully replenished.
"My divine ability should be one of a kind, right?"
After making up for the consumption, Lu Xun closed his eyes and began inner observation.
Inside his body there is a small space.
This space exists within the body, yet does not belong to any particular part of the body.
It is not an ordinary space.
Rather, it is a divine ability awakened after Murong Wan opened the secret apertures of the five viscera and six bowels.
In Murong Wan's case, it is merely an ordinary inner-view space, equivalent to expanding the capacity of the five viscera and six bowels.
After being returned fiftyfold to Lu Xun, however, it became an inner-view cave-heaven.
This is an inner-body world.
Or, a microcosmos.
Unlike storage spaces and the like, the inner-view cave-heaven is a small world whose laws are entirely set by Lu Xun.
The five viscera correspond to the five phases, the six bowels to the six ways, and everything inside is up to Lu Xun.
If the inner-view cave-heaven grows strong, Lu Xun can even drag enemies into it and suppress them using its laws.
Of course, this move is rather dangerous, for if the inner-view shatters, the five viscera and six bowels may shatter as well, causing at least severe injury if not death.
For now, the inner-view cave-heaven naturally cannot yet do that.
His martial cultivation is ultimately only at the third realm, and the inner-view cave-heaven is still akin to a seed just sprouted.
But as Lu Xun's martial cultivation rises, the inner-view cave-heaven will become ever more formidable, possibly evolving into a complete small world.
Besides the inner-view cave-heaven, when opening the secret apertures of the five viscera and six bowels, Lu Xun also awakened another divine ability.
Five Viscera Divine Sovereigns.
Heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney each conceal a deity; once awakened, they are marvelously endless.
Here the term 'god' naturally does not refer to deities above the Tenth Realm, but rather to something like spirituality.
For example, the heart aperture is the Red Heart Divine Sovereign, belonging to fire, possessing the ability of blazing heart fury.
That is, burning the heart's essence blood to explode combat power, but overuse will exhaust the heart's vessels.
There is also an ability called Blood-Forged Divine Weapon, which turns blood into weapons to attack yin and evil things.
Likewise, the liver aperture awakens the Azure Wood Divine Sovereign, endowing the liver with 'vital vital energy,' enabling severed limbs to be reattached, organs to regenerate, and even allowing him to heal others.
The lung aperture is the White Metal Divine Sovereign, capable of exhaling swords; with each inhale and exhale, the lung-metal qi condenses into invisible sword qi that can kill a person a hundred paces away.
This divine ability, at the third realm, is actually not very strong.
This lack of strength is only relative to Lu Xun's current power.
In the third realm itself, it is naturally a very powerful divine ability.
Only with increasing strength will this divine ability's might truly manifest.
Martial cultivators, after the Six Realms, can still contend with Immortal Cultivators who can overturn seas and pluck stars with a raise of hand; the role of these martial divine abilities should not be underestimated.
'The passage is open.'
One day later, the passage of the Rainbow Bridge opened.
That day, Fu Xue sat cross-legged recovering, and she hardly spoke with Lu Xun.
Lu Xun noticed that this time Fu Xue was somewhat different from before; she had become colder.
This might be related to her practicing some cultivation technique, or seeking a breakthrough.
Fu Xue... is at the peak of the Six Realms, only one step away from the Seventh Realm.
Seeing the passage appear, Fu Xue flicked her sleeves and rose; her plain white robes fluttered in the breeze.
Her gaze clear and cold, she looked toward the passage, stepped aside half a step, and said lightly:
"Let's go."
This was to let Lu Xun go first.
"Okay, teacher."
Lu Xun led the way into the passage.
After Lu Xun's figure had completely vanished into the passage, Fu Xue then lightly moved her lotus steps and gracefully entered the passage.
As the last ripple faded, the Spirit Realm returned to silence, as if no one had ever come.
