The other high-ranking members of the Fallen Immortal Organization, although feeling hopeless about their chances of cultivating the Seventh Layer of the Nine Transformations of Life and Death Technique, couldn't help but smile at the news.
For a moment, both sides were filled with joy!
By the way, I came here hoping to meet your leader. I wonder if he has come out of seclusion this time?
I'm afraid that will be disappointing for Young Master Chen; the leader is still in closed-door cultivation. Before he entered, he mentioned that this session was very important and might take quite some time, so we don't know when he will emerge.
However, as soon as he does come out, we will definitely inform Young Master Chen right away!
Alright!
Although it was a bit regrettable not to meet the leader of the Fallen Immortal Organization, with the direction for breaking through to the Seventh Layer of the Nine Transformations of Life and Death Technique and the Life and Death Stone in hand, he believed he would soon be able to condense his sixth acupoint and break through to the Seventh Layer.
Then I shall take my leave, Zhu Shouling.
Sure, Young Master Chen, let me see you off.
The other high-ranking members of the Fallen Immortal Organization didn’t speak but followed Zhu Anning closely behind, escorting Chen Moxuan to the exit of their base.
After returning to Fu Bo's home, Chen Moxuan happened to see Wu Yinuo outside her room and quickly asked:
Is something wrong?
No, no, nothing at all.
Wu Yinuo felt a bit embarrassed upon being caught by Chen Moxuan and stammered her words.
Chen Moxuan couldn't help but laugh at her adorable expression.
If there’s something on your mind, you can just tell me. We’ve fought side by side as comrades; is there anything you’re afraid to say to me?
Wu Yinuo felt even more embarrassed by Chen Moxuan's words; her cheeks flushed bright red as she lowered her head slightly.
She whispered,
Really, it’s nothing. I just wanted to come out for a walk and somehow ended up at your door.
The truth was that she hadn’t seen Chen Moxuan for several days and simply wanted to check on him to see how he was doing; there were no complicated thoughts behind it.
Hmm. Then let’s go grab a meal together. It’ll be a nice way to relax after being in seclusion for a few days.
Sure!
Hearing Chen Moxuan invite her to dinner made Wu Yinuo very happy. The awkwardness she felt inside eased considerably.
Let’s go then; we’ll head to the street.
Although Chen Moxuan wanted to condense his sixth acupoint for the Nine Transformations of Life and Death Technique as soon as possible, he didn’t mind taking a little extra time for this outing.
The two of them walked down the street, chatting as they went.
“How’s the refining going in the Underworld Realm? Is it progressing smoothly?”
“I’ve managed to refine about seventy percent so far, but the last thirty percent seems to be much more difficult. The progress isn’t great,” Wu Yinuo replied, a hint of frustration in her tone.
“Don’t worry. Both treasures and Divine Weapons are like that; the later stages are always harder and require time to refine. Just keep at it,” Chen Moxuan reassured her.
“Alright.”
“Is there anything you want to eat?”
“I’m not sure what I want. Since we’re out together, you can choose whatever you like,” Wu Yinuo tossed the decision back to Chen Moxuan.
Fortunately, Chen Moxuan was someone who could make decisions easily.
“Okay, then I’ll take care of it!”
He guessed that although Wu Yinuo was the Heartless Valley Master, she probably didn’t eat out much, especially at street stalls. So this time, he chose a street vendor instead of taking her to a fancy restaurant like Mo Wen Jiu Lou.
The stall looked simple, but it was quite popular. The ingredients displayed by the owner were fresh and clean, and such stalls usually had good flavors and reputations.
Chen Moxuan found a small table for himself and Wu Yinuo and ordered several signature dishes from the vendor.
After a while, the owner brought out all the dishes, which indeed looked delicious and fragrant.
“Here, give it a try! How does it taste?”
Wu Yinuo took a tentative bite and found the flavor genuinely delightful. The two of them happily dug into their meal.
Cultivation wasn’t about being heartless; it was about maintaining one’s humanity. What made someone human was their inherent nature. Although everyone’s nature varied—some good, some bad—it was these complex traits that shaped each person’s unique character, making everyone one of a kind.
Wu Yinuo was enjoying herself not just because the food was tasty.
It was mainly because Chen Moxuan was there to share the meal with her.
Once they finished eating, Wu Yinuo's earlier frustration over the difficulties she faced in refining the You Ming Jing vanished in an instant. Chen Moxuan looked at the smile on her face and couldn't help but smile back.
After their meal, the two didn't rush back to Fu Bo's house; instead, they strolled around the streets. Of course, they had disguised themselves before going out to avoid being easily recognized.
This was one of the troubles that came with Chen Moxuan's status as a prominent figure in Heartless Valley. If he didn't take precautions before stepping outside, he would undoubtedly be recognized immediately, drawing unwanted attention.
Once Wu Yinuo had her fill of fun, Chen Moxuan took her back to Fu Bo's house. After entering his room, he reviewed his training experiences with the Nine Transformations of Life and Death Technique at the Sixth Layer once more.
Confirming that he had mastered everything, he took out a piece of Life and Death Stone and held it in his palm to absorb its energy. He had acquired six pieces of Life and Death Stone from Ming Hai, which he believed would be sufficient for him to break through to the Seventh Layer of the Nine Transformations of Life and Death Technique.
As he held the Life and Death Stone, Chen Moxuan felt that his training was different this time. The moment he began to operate the Nine Transformations of Life and Death Technique, he sensed a stream of extremely pure energy, merging life and death, entering his body.
Instantly, his understanding of the Life and Death Path became much clearer. It was as if he had been nearsighted before, seeing distant objects only vaguely; now it felt like he had finally put on a pair of glasses that allowed him to see everything clearly.
This clarity accelerated his comprehension of the Life and Death Path significantly. What is life? What is death? What distinguishes life from death? How does life transform into death? How does death transform into life? And how do they coexist?
Chen Moxuan had some answers to these questions while others remained elusive. Yet, he knew that all the answers could be found within the Life and Death Path.
He entered a wondrous state where countless pieces of knowledge about the Life and Death Path collided, sublimated, and refined in his mind, allowing him to grasp what he sought to understand.
Chen Moxuan became immersed in this Dao of acquiring knowledge. His understanding of the Life and Death Path advanced at an astonishing speed.
