Chapter 691: Natural Immortal Body

"What a cute little girl."

Yin Qi half-squatted and patted Chenxi's little head.

He then reached out and made a grasping motion in the air, and an Amulet refined from Immortal Jade appeared in his hand.

"Do you like this jade pendant?"

The Amulet was milky white, crystal clear, and radiated a charming halo under the sunlight.

Chenxi's dark eyes lit up, but she still sensibly looked up at Chen Nan.

Seeing Chen Nan nod slightly, she happily accepted it: "I like it, thank you, Brother."

Yin Qi patted Chenxi's little head and smiled slightly: "As long as you like it. Come, let me put it on you. Remember not to take this jade pendant off in the future. This is an Amulet that can block three strikes from an Immortal for you."

"Thank you, Brother."

Chenxi thanked him happily again; she just felt that this big brother was a truly good person.

As for blocking three strikes from an Immortal, she had no concept of what that meant.

"Thank you, Brother Yin."

Chen Nan thanked him joyfully.

Being able to block three strikes from an Immortal, he knew how precious this Amulet was.

Afterward, he said to Chenxi: "Chenxi, you go play in the courtyard by yourself for a while; I have something to discuss with this brother."

"Mm-hmm."

Chenxi nodded sensibly, then turned and went to chase the butterflies in the courtyard.

……

Under the pavilion.

Chen Nan withdrew his gaze and said solemnly: "Brother Yin, I brought Chenxi here, so I believe you have also seen her extraordinary nature."

Yin Qi nodded: "Mm, a Natural Immortal Body, not like us mortals."

Chen Nan took a deep breath and said: "You once said that Yuxin existed on Kunlun Mountain, but I did not encounter Yuxin; instead, I saw Chenxi born from a Flower Petal.

This Flower Petal was rooted in a piece of Supreme Divine Jade, and there were words left by Yuxin on the divine jade.

Chenxi could speak at birth, and she was naturally close to me.

I suspect she is the reincarnation of Yuxin."

Speaking up to this point, his voice became urgent: "Brother Yin, please tell me, what exactly is going on? Is Chenxi really Yuxin? Where is the real Yuxin cub? Why does she exist in both the Immortal World and the human world?"

Yin Qi thought for a moment, and finally said: "Chenxi is Yuxin, but Yuxin is not Chenxi."

Chen Nan was shocked: "What does that mean?"

Yin Qi said: "Chenxi's existence is very marvelous; one could say she is an avatar of Yuxin, a brand-new life nurtured from a wisp of a Soul Seed. Therefore, Chenxi is Yuxin, but Yuxin is not Chenxi."

Chen Nan was dumbfounded and muttered blankly: "Nurtured from a Soul Seed. I knew it, I knew Chenxi was Yuxin. Then where is Yuxin? Where is her true self?"

Yin Qi recalled the original work and said: "If you speak of the true self, it should be in the human Boundary. But the one in the Immortal World also belongs to the true self. As for the one in the West, she is the same as Chenxi; both are brand-new lives nurtured from Soul Seeds."

Chen Nan felt like his head was about to explode.

According to what Yin Qi said, Yuxin's situation was far too complicated.

Two true selves, and two nurtured from Soul Seeds—what kind of situation was this?

Unable to figure it out, he stopped thinking about it and said: "Brother Yin, according to what you said, Yuxin's true self is at Fengdu Mountain. When will I be able to find her?"

Having practiced the Heavenly Mystery Path, Chen Nan also understood the importance of opportunity.

If the opportunity has not arrived, no matter how much one searches, it is of no use.

Just like meeting Chenxi this time; if it were later, Chenxi would have already been born and taken away by the old Demons of Kunlun Mountain; if it were earlier, he would not have stayed outside Hundred Flowers Valley for long and would have missed Chenxi's birth.

Yin Qi shook his head and said: "When the opportunity arrives, you will naturally know. There is no point in me telling you now."

"Alright."

Chen Nan nodded and had to suppress the urgency in his heart, saying: "By the way, Brother Yin, the commotion caused in Jin this time was not small. Although they haven't made any moves on the surface, they have secretly sent people to hunt me down. For Chenxi's safety, I hope to place her here in your courtyard." Yin Qi nodded and said: "Fine. Actually, I once had a little sister like this too. Looking at Chenxi is like looking at her. If she stays here, she can keep me company on ordinary days."

"Is that so!"

A sharp light flashed in Chen Nan's eyes.

He knew Yin Qi's background; where would he have a sister?

That is to say, Yin Qi was indeed a supreme powerhouse who had awakened memories of a past life; this way, everything made sense.

"Ah, little Dragon."

Chenxi's exclamation drew the gazes of Yin Qi and Chen Nan, and they saw the baby dragon wiggling its chubby body, flying nimbly into the courtyard, and then quickly flying to Chenxi's side.

Chenxi giggled and climbed onto the baby dragon's back.

The baby dragon turned its head to look at Chen Nan and Yin Qi, chirping "yiya yiya," seemingly calling to the two of them, and then slipped into Yin Qi's Alchemy Room with practiced ease, leaving Chen Nan dumbfounded.

He suddenly thought, could those Pills the baby dragon had been stealing have come from here?

Yin Qi chuckled: "This little dragon is truly bold. It only stole my Pills last month, and now it actually dares to come again, and even walks swaggeringly into the Alchemy Room right in front of me."

Please... add... to your bookmarks at 6... 9... shu....!

Chen Nan had black lines all over his head, and he smiled awkwardly: "This baby dragon is a bit confused; Brother Yin, please don't hold it against him."

Yin Qi said: "If I held it against him, he wouldn't have been able to leave that night. However, I see he is already on the verge of a breakthrough; I fear it won't be long before he evolves."

"Evolves!"

Chen Nan exclaimed: "The baby dragon is currently a Fifth-order Holy Dragon; if it evolves again, wouldn't it be a Sixth-order Divine Dragon?"

"Mm."

Yin Qi nodded.

At this moment, the baby dragon came back out carrying Chenxi, its eyes full of confusion.

There were Pills before, so why were they gone now?

"Cough, cough!"

Chen Nan beckoned, and only after the baby Dragon flew outside the hall did he say, "Baby Dragon, this is Yin Qi, the owner of this courtyard. You cannot act so recklessly in the future."

"Yiya, yiya!"

The baby Dragon's eyes lit up brightly. It stared with its large, pitch-black eyes, acting cute, and held its hands out in a cupped gesture, as if begging for a Pill.

Seeing this, Chen Nan could not help but cover his face.

This baby Dragon was truly impolite; it started begging for a Pill right away.

"Hehe, you certainly know how to curry favor. Seeing that you are on the verge of a breakthrough, I will gift you this one."

As Yin Qi spoke, he tossed a sky-blue Pill to the baby Dragon.

Under the sunlight, it looked like a crystal ball, its entire body wreathed in enchanting, rosy light.

Swish!

The baby Dragon flicked its tongue, rolled the Sixth-order Pill into its mouth, and swallowed it in one gulp, revealing a blissful dragon-style smile. Soon after, its eyes widened, and it hurriedly lay on the ground, twisting its body to let Chenxi down.

Chenxi was also very sensible and hurriedly lay down.

Afterwards, the baby Dragon turned and flew away, lying down under the eaves of the main hall. A horny layer grew frantically over its body, like a silkworm cocoon, wrapping itself layer by layer inside.

"It's evolving already?"

Chen Nan was shocked; it seemed a Sixth-order Pill was truly formidable.

Yin Qi nodded and said, "Originally, with its foundation, it would have taken at least a month to complete the transformation. Now, with the help of that Sixth-order Pill just now, it will be finished in three days at most."

"Good, that's great."

Chen Nan was overjoyed and happy for the baby Dragon as well.

Chenxi also understood what was happening, and a pure smile appeared on her face.

"By the way, there is one more thing."

Chen Nan suddenly turned solemn and said in a deep voice, "On my way back to Shenfeng Academy, I accidentally discovered a Death Forbidden Land. Inside, the Demon Qi was like a tide, and there were piles of bones..." (End of chapter)
