Chapter 477: Barbara Awakens

Time flew by.

One week after Lu Xun obtained the War Character Technique, the primordial demon nature brought by the Dragon Transformation Demon Body was finally completely neutralized.

But it couldn't be said to be completely neutralized.

From then on, each use of the Dragon Transformation Demon Body still brought a trace of primordial demon nature.

This trace of primordial demon nature, if left unattended, would grow stronger and stronger until it became uncontrollable.

If dealt with early, handling it would be much simpler.

That is to say, if at the time they noticed something was wrong, and Lu Xun had resolved it early, they wouldn't have ended up like now, having harmonized without shame with Fu Yue for over half a month before eliminating it.

"Teacher, I'm fine."

"Are you okay?"

Hearing Lu Xun say there was no problem, Fu Yue couldn't help feeling happy for him.

At the same time, she inexplicably felt a sense of loss.

Over that past half month, Fu Yue's inner feelings actually came to enjoy those days of being together with Lu Xun without shame.

But now such days are coming to an end.

"Mm, thank you for your hard work these days, teacher."

Lu Xun's words caused a hint of shyness to appear again on Fu Yue's lovely face.

"Let's go back."

She changed the subject.

Beautiful times are always fleeting.

Now we must face reality again.

"Mm."

Lu Xun actually also felt somewhat reluctant.

But he also had to go back.

Thus, Lu Xun took out the Heavenly Dao Talisman, preparing to activate it to return.

"Why won't it work?"

At that moment.

Lu Xun discovered, however, that the Heavenly Dao Talisman was unusable.

"Let me try."

Seeing this, Fu Yue attempted it.

"Can't activate..."

The Heavenly Dao Talisman likewise could not be activated.

"What's going on?"

"There's only one possibility: our current position is not within an Ancient Road Node."

Fu Yue's expression turned solemn.

"Not in an Ancient Road Node?"

Lu Xun's heart sank.

He who walks by the river often gets his shoes wet.

The worst-case scenario has occurred.

The Banishment Curse exiled the two of them outside the Ancient Road Node.

Ancient Road Nodes are basically located within nebulae, and only inside them is there a richer concentration of Dark Energy.

As for outside the nebula, although the area is vaster, it is a barren region where Dark Energy is relatively scarce.

"We don't know how far this place is from an Ancient Road Node, Lu Xun; can your secret technique still be used again, or should we try to see if we can get back?"

Fu Yue suggested.

"We can only do this."

Lu Xun prepared to use the Banishment Curse again.

"Absolutely not."

At that moment.

Barbara's voice suddenly echoed in the depths of Lu Xun's heart.

"Barbara, you've finally awakened?"

Lu Xun felt delighted.

Barbara had been asleep for several years; Lu Xun had always worried something might happen to her, and now she has finally awakened.

"Mm! You must never use the Banishment Curse again; the more times it is used on the same person in a short period, the greater the variables, and it could even exile you to the edge of the universe."

Barbara reminded.

"Then what should we do?"

Lu Xun asked.

"I can help you, but my situation is somewhat serious; if I cannot resolve the curse within a year, I will fall into eternal slumber. Lu Xun, can you help me?"

Barbara's voice carried a plea.

"How should we do it?"

Lu Xun asked.

"There are two options: either find a witch, subdue her and have her lift the curse, or find a Star Gate and distance ourselves from this Ancient Road Node."

Barbara said.

Find the witch and subdue her.

Also, find the star gate.

As for the star gate's location, Lu Xun happens to know it.

But this method requires leaving Lan Xing, which Lu Xun ruled out.

So, only one method remains.

Witch!

Deal with the witch!

With Lu Xun's current strength, using the primal ancient blood, he can fight against the Nine Realms.

But being able to fight does not mean he can subdue the witch.

"Perhaps we can make use of the Chi Sha Yao Huang..."

Lu Xun suddenly thought of a method.

The Chi Sha Yao Huang wants to obtain Lu Xun.

The witch wants to obtain Barbara.

If used well, perhaps they can be made to fight each other, and Lu Xun can then reap the benefits.

But this move is very dangerous, easy to backfire.

What if they join forces instead?

So, the key is still to increase one's own strength.

One year's time.

I don't know if it can allow strength to increase again.

On the side of immortal martial magic, wanting to reach Nine Realms combat power is still somewhat difficult.

On the contrary, the monster clan's cultivation might possibly have a new breakthrough.

After the ancient monster reshapes its monster body, it will definitely quickly increase its cultivation.

By then, Lu Xun's combat power will have further growth.

"Barbara, I will definitely help you!"

Lu Xun promised.

"Hmm, I can only believe you now; if we can deal with the witch, when I return to Astra Star and ascend the throne, I will definitely let you be the king's man!"

Barbara likewise promised.

"Alright, time is short; first let her go in, don't see me, I'll take you back."

After saying that, she said.

Barbara did not want Fu Yue to know.

"Okay."

Lu Xun responded.

Then he looked at Fu Yue and said: "Teacher, you first enter my inner mental space; I'll try, see if I can return."

"Hmm!"

Fu Yue nodded.

She re-entered the inner mental space.

After everything was ready, Lu Xun let Barbara out.

At this time, Barbara was still in cat form.

I don't know if her awakening this time is because she is far from the Ancient Road Node.

That spell, although miraculous, if the distance is too great, its effect will still be affected.

After Barbara came out, her cat claws began drawing in the air.

Lu Xun looked and saw that what she drew was actually a hexagram formation.

But it is different from the hexagram formation in the previous demon god reincarnation place.

Hers is another kind.

The hexagram is still a hexagram, but the runes inside are completely different.

"Good thing I left a door on Lan Xing; otherwise it would be troublesome..."

As she drew, Barbara explained.

This kind of hexagram formation of hers also counts as a kind of teleportation formation.

Its principle is very simple.

She left a hexagram formation on Lan Xing.

Only need to draw another one to connect the two.

This thing sounds simple to say, but very few people know how to make it.

Barbara drew for a full half hour, finally completing it.

Then she used her claw to prick her tongue tip, producing a drop of blood that fell onto the hexagram formation.

The hexagram formation thereby lit up.

Soon, it turned into a dark passage.

"Alright, go in, remember the time—you only have one year; if you exceed one year, I'll be completely done for!"

Barbara cautioned Lu Xun.

Perhaps the situation is extremely dire; now she, facing Lu Xun, also has no princess-like arrogance.

"Okay!"

Lu Xun rubbed her little head, then picked up Barbara and slipped into the passage.

When he came out again, he had already arrived at the surface of Lan Xing.

"West?"

This place is not in the east, but in an old church in the west.

The church is located in the wilderness, appearing long abandoned.

No one would have expected that Barbara had hidden the six-pointed star array here.
