The distance seemed short, yet the girl walked with delicate steps for quite a while.
Wei Chen stared blankly at the girl and the giant serpent, a strange thought that felt oddly natural emerged in his mind. It seemed as if the girl and the giant serpent were one entity, inseparable from each other.
"How strange," he mused. "One is human and the other is a serpent, yet they give me the impression of being a single being. The aura surrounding the girl is identical to that of the giant serpent, but I can't quite discern what kind of aura it is. It doesn't feel like that of humans or demons."
As Wei Chen pondered, the girl finally reached him.
A radiant smile lit up her face.
The Golden Giant Serpent, dragging its hundred-foot-long body, held its proud head high, looking down at the girl without ever casting a glance at Wei Chen.
The girl raised her hand and pointed at the giant serpent, opening her mouth as if to say something. However, after a few movements of her throat, no sound came out. Confusion filled her eyes as she seemed to ask Wei Chen what this creature was and why it was following her.
Not sensing any hostility from the serpent, Wei Chen relaxed and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Think about it carefully; perhaps it is you."
This strange thought had no clear origin in Wei Chen's mind. Yet he felt certain that the giant serpent was the girl, and the girl was the giant serpent.
"Could it be a hint from the Demon Lotus? This place was created by the Demon Lotus in my previous life; everything within should be under its control."
Upon hearing this, the girl seemed to understand Wei Chen's words. She furrowed her brow slightly and looked up at the enormous serpent's head, which sported some golden whiskers that added to its imposing presence.
A man might have found it appealing, but clearly, the girl did not share Wei Chen's sentiment as she shook her head lightly.
"Her intelligence is increasing; she can understand my words and express herself with simple body language. The last time I saw her, she couldn't do any of this. Will she be able to speak next time I come in?"
Thinking this, Wei Chen smiled and said, "Actually, this snake is quite majestic and beautiful; among serpents, it must be a great beauty."
The girl pouted, clearly displeased with Wei Chen's words. Wei Chen had no choice but to give up and stop considering the issue of the snake.
"Last time she hugged me, my strength skyrocketed. I wonder if it will work again this time?"
Wei Chen stepped forward, standing in front of the girl, and softly asked, "Can I hug you?"
A look of joy suddenly appeared on the girl's face as she opened her arms and leaped into Wei Chen's embrace, tightly wrapping her arms around his waist.
Wei Chen encircled the girl's back with his hands, and a pure and vast Soul Power erupted from her, bringing a gentle coolness that surged into Wei Chen's body.
In just a few breaths, Wei Chen secretly marveled, "I've reached the second level of Spirit Wisdom Realm!"
"Third level of Spirit Wisdom Realm!"
"Fourth level of Spirit Wisdom Realm!"
"Spirit Wisdom Realm Level Five!"
"Ah, sixth level of Spirit Wisdom Realm!"
"Seventh level!"
Wei Chen felt no discomfort in his body; in fact, he didn't even experience the pain that usually accompanied breaking through a bottleneck.
As he reached the seventh level of Spirit Wisdom Realm, the girl gently released her hold. Her face turned pale as she took a few steps back, fatigue evident in her eyes as she quietly watched Wei Chen.
Wei Chen felt a pang in his heart. "She must have exhausted her Soul Power to help me improve my strength, yet she still looks at me so gently..."
He wanted to pull the girl into his embrace, but he hesitated. What if she decided to transfer her Soul Power to him again? Her body must have reached its limit by now.
"I want to hold you, but please don't give me any more Soul Power, okay?"
The girl squinted her eyes, and a charming smile slowly spread across her face, with dimples appearing as she sweetly gazed at Wei Chen. She nestled back into his arms, resting her head against his chest and gently rubbing against him.
Without the continuous flow of Soul Power, Wei Chen was able to hold the girl securely, feeling an immense sense of peace in his heart. In that moment, he had no other thoughts; all his worries and pressures faded away.
After a long while, they parted. The girl looked at Wei Chen with sparkling eyes and pointed towards the gray sky.
As Wei Chen was trying to decipher her meaning, a sudden flash of white light appeared beside him. In the blink of an eye, the girl vanished, and Wei Chen found himself in the courtyard.
"Every time I go in, there's a time limit. I wonder what that girl meant."
Wei Chen hesitated for a moment before soaring upwards rapidly.
At an altitude of ten thousand meters, a figure approached him.
"What are you planning to do?"
"It seems I wasn't mistaken; you really are here."
The person before him could only be Ni Junlin.
Ni Junlin's expression was cold as she said, "Don't disturb me if there's nothing important."
"Of course there's something important. I just entered that space, and there was a Golden Giant Serpent inside. Its aura is exactly the same as that girl’s. What’s going on?"
"How would I know?"
Ni Junlin shot Wei Chen an annoyed glance, her eyes flickering.
"She knows, but she doesn't want to..."
Wei Chen thought to himself, forcing a smile onto his face. "Gorgeous lady, if you don't know, who else can I ask? Please tell me. You wouldn't want me to be preoccupied with that snake, feeling blocked up inside and unable to focus on my training, would you?"
Ni Junlin snorted coldly. "It's none of my business; you can figure it out yourself."
"How can it not be your business? If I can't train well, you'll suffer too, right? If my strength improves, you'll have it easier and won't have to work so hard to protect me."
"You think protecting you is such a hassle? Wei Chen, you should know that it's not that woman who's been helping you; it's me."
"I know, I know. I'm very clear about that."
Wei Chen put on his most flattering expression, gazing eagerly at Ni Junlin.
After a moment of silence, Ni Junlin spoke again. "That woman is essentially a snake. When the time comes, the giant serpent will naturally appear. It won't be long before they merge into one, and her strength will recover somewhat. Just like how I am the Seven-Colored Devouring Python."
"So that's how it is... What kind of snake is that? I've never seen anything like it before. In the Soul World, that kind of snake doesn't exist either."
"How do you know it doesn't exist?"
"If it had ever appeared, I would definitely know. During my time at the Cloud Spirit Sect, I read many records of strange beasts, and there was no mention of such a snake."
Wei Chen spent most of his time at the Cloud Spirit Sect in a lowly position. Due to the influence of the Demon Lotus, he couldn't condense his Martial Soul, so he passed the time by reading. He learned quite a bit about the beasts and customs of the Soul World.
Ni Junlin sighed lightly, her brows furrowed with a strange expression. "Just wait and see. There are too many things I don't want to tell you. In short, that snake is not simple. Once it grows up, it will be no weaker than the Seven-Colored Devouring Python. In the Hua Xia World, it could even dominate the beasts. However, you are an anomaly; after your appearance, it has grown rapidly, making all the beasts in Hua Xia bow down."
Wei Chen wanted to ask more questions, but Ni Junlin waved her hand dismissively. "Leave this place. Unless it's an emergency, don't come flying up to find me; I don't want to be seen."
"Alright, take care."
Wei Chen returned to his courtyard and looked at the stone again. He dripped a few more drops of blood onto it, but there was no reaction.
"It seems this thing has a time limit—not just for the time inside but also for entering it; there must be intervals as well. This means I can't use it recklessly unless it's a critical moment."
"Ni Junlin's implication is that this giant snake is even more powerful than the Seven-Colored Devouring Python; she just doesn't want to admit it. Could it possibly be... a dragon?"
Wei Chen's face showed astonishment as he contemplated that possibility, unable to shake off the thought for a long time.
"A dragon—the legendary creature capable of destroying the world!"
"But how could that girl possibly be a dragon?"
"But if she really is a dragon, wouldn't that mean I'd have a formidable woman by my side once she grows up?"
Wei Chen fantasized happily, a smile plastered across his face.
"Young Master, aren't you going to sleep?"
Snow Cicada emerged from her room, having woken up and not seen Wei Chen, so she came out to check.
"Um, you should go back to rest. I'm not used to sleeping; cultivating is like sleeping for me," Wei Chen replied with a cheerful grin.
Snow Cicada nodded obediently and turned to go back. Since Wei Chen wanted to cultivate, she would not disturb him no matter what.
Wei Chen felt the Soul Power that the girl had sent him filling his body, stabilizing after a night of cultivation at Spirit Wisdom Realm Sevenfold. He could clearly sense that after reaching the Spirit Wisdom Realm, his perception had increased many times over. The term Spirit Wisdom Realm emphasized both agility and intelligence.
In this Soul Power Realm, the Silent Extinction Finger was no longer sufficient; it couldn't even break through the protective Soul Power of a Spirit Wisdom Realm Sevenfold expert. Most of the Soul Techniques obtained on Sword Mountain were Fifth-Rank or Sixth-Rank. What Wei Chen needed now was not a Sixth-Rank Soul Skill but a Seventh Rank.
Fortunately, there were two Seventh-Rank Soul Skills available.
One of them was a Sword Technique called Star-Chasing Moon-Slicing Sword. The other was a protective Cultivation Method known as Purple Sun Technique.
For most high-level experts in the Spirit Wisdom Realm, Seventh-Rank Soul Skills were simply unattainable. Even slightly stronger experts could only cultivate low-level Seventh Rank Soul Techniques and could never master them fully.
Both Star-Chasing Moon-Slicing Sword and Purple Sun Technique were mid-level Seventh Rank skills; even initial-stage Surge Realm experts would find them difficult to cultivate, requiring years of hard work.
However, when Wei Chen mentally reviewed those two Soul Techniques in his mind, he grasped them completely without any teacher.
He was not just talented; he was a genius transformed by the Demon Lotus.
"Star-Chasing Moon-Slicing Sword, it doesn't feel that difficult to master. Purple Sun Technique is even more simple, body protection Cultivation Method, no need to practice at all." Wei ChenFollow Purple Sun Technique The exercise route activates the Soul Power and quickly condenses a layer of hard shield under the skin, which is invisible to others. The body protection Soul Power is filled on the body surface, and it cannot be as hard as the shield layer produced by Purple Sun Technique. "Try it." Wei Chen picked up the Jinghong Sword and stabbed the sword into his thigh. A bloody hole appeared, causing severe pain. Wei Chen scolded in shock: "Paralyze, it turns out to be a parallel import! Seventh Rank Intermediate body protection Cultivation Method was broken so easily? I didn't even use much force. "Is it possible that this sword is the problem? Mu Qingyan, this Jinghong Sword is of high quality." Wei Chen found another ordinary long sword and tried it again. Broken without leaving any holes. "It's not that Purple Sun Technique is too watery, but Jinghong Sword is too fierce!" Wei Chen was ecstatic. "Mu Qingyan This sword is of a very high grade. It seems that what he said is true... Na Nizi, in Ancient Spirit Academy, I don’t know how she is doing..." Wei Chen thinks of Mu Qingyan , I can’t help but feel a bit disappointed. After arriving at Ling City, there was no news about Mu Qingyan. At the same time, in Ancient Spirit Academy, Mu Qingyan looked at the red betrothal gifts piled up all over the house and roared: "I won't marry!"
