Chapter 1633
How could Gu Ying dare to covet such a forbidden technique that defies the heavens and changes fate? Even though Chen Xuan did not set up a barrier, he suppressed his divine sense and only dared to confirm the movements inside the hall by relying on his perception.
Feeling the stagnation of time and space around him, he was shocked and filled with gratitude for Chen Xuan.
After an unknown amount of time, as the sun began to set and Gu Ying felt his blood and energy stagnate, the spatial and temporal power within the palace finally dissipated.
"Hoo... Reconstructing a remnant soul is indeed a hundred times more dangerous than reconstructing a complete soul." Chen Xuan's voice carried a hint of weariness. "Come in."
Gu Ying's body trembled, and he almost staggered as he rushed into the hall.
In the center of the main hall, a silkworm cocoon about ten feet tall was suspended in mid-air. The cocoon was shimmering with seven-colored light, and a figure could be vaguely seen curled up inside. A familiar aura was emanating from the cocoon.
"It's Junior Sister's aura! It's her... It's her!" Gu Ying rushed to the cocoon, reaching out but not daring to touch it, only able to gently stroke it from a distance, her voice choked with emotion, "I'm not dreaming... Junior Sister, is it really you?"
Looking at his unshaven, dark-rimmed appearance, Chen Xuan couldn't help but recall the time when he rebuilt Jiang Linglong's physical body, feeling just as nervous and expectant. He joked, "If a complete soul can be born in three days, given her condition, she will probably try her best to absorb the treasures and blessings within to complete her soul."
Chen Xuan calculated for a moment before saying, "If nothing unexpected happens, she will emerge from her cocoon in three years."
Seeing Gu Ying's current appearance, he laughed and said, "You plan to meet her looking like this? Be careful she doesn't call you 'uncle'."
Gu Ying finally came to her senses, looked down at her blood-stained, tattered appearance, and especially at the dark circles under her eyes that made her look like a demon. She immediately became flustered and stammered, "I... I..."
"Take her with you." Chen Xuan waved his hand. "For the next three years, you only need to store her in your personal immortal abode or in a magic treasure. The affairs of the sect are entirely up to you."
"Pfft!"
Gu Ying knelt down again, her voice choked with emotion: "Master's kindness is something Gu Ying could never repay, even if she were to be shattered to pieces..."
"Get up." Chen Xuan walked to his side and patted him on the shoulder. "I hope that in the future you can lead the creatures of this world to break free from the exploitation of the extraterrestrial powers and truly live out your own destiny."
As he spoke, Chen Xuan flipped his hand and took out two jade bottles, saying, "The one on the left is the inherited method I obtained by killing over a thousand Void Reversers and one Celestial Immortal. Although it is not organized, it is enough to support the current foundation of the Zhengyi Sect's Daoist scriptures."
Gu Ying took the jade bottle and scanned it with his divine sense. He saw that it was filled with jade slips, all of which were orthodox teachings. He was shocked.
"On the right is ten million catties of Origin Liquid, as well as tens of thousands of Marrow Cleansing Pills, Blood Tempering Pills, and so on," Chen Xuan said calmly. "These are useless to me, and have no value in selling. They can be used as the foundation for the sect's activation."
"Ten million catties of Origin Liquid, tens of thousands of pills?" Gu Ying felt as heavy as a mountain in his hand. Such initial funds for establishing a sect were something that even some mid-sized sects could only dream of!
"It's just a temporary loan," Chen Xuan said with a smile. "The mineral veins in this world are of high quality, and you can repay me with interest in the future."
"Your subordinate obeys!" Gu Ying nodded emphatically, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.
"Your obsession has dissipated, your inner knot has been untied, and your state of mind has been transformed. While she is awakening, you can also try to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm," Chen Xuan instructed. "Do not become addicted to the pleasures of love and forget about cultivation."
"Your subordinate dares not slack off!" Gu Ying said, blushing and bowing his head, a rare occurrence for him.
“The Heavenly Dao Gu God Sect has been destroyed, so it’s time to change your surname.” Chen Xuan pondered for a moment, “The character ‘Gu’ is inauspicious, so how about changing it to ‘Gu’, and just the single character ‘Ying’ in your given name?”
“Gu Ying…” he murmured his new name, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes, “Thank you for bestowing this name upon me, Master!”
"You may decide her name." Chen Xuan tossed down a communication jade talisman and a recording bead. "If the sect faces a crisis, simply crush the jade talisman. When your five mistresses return, give them the recording bead."
He looked out of the hall, his voice growing deeper: "I need to find a spiritual place to cultivate in seclusion and prepare for breaking through to the Void Realm. Unless a sect is destroyed during this time, I must not be disturbed."
"My subordinate understands!"
Chen Xuan nodded and left, his figure transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the horizon, heading to find a place of exceptional beauty and spiritual energy suitable for seclusion.
Inside the hall, Gu Ying held the divine silkworm cocoon in his arms, his fingertips gently tracing its surface, tears silently streaming down his face: "Junior sister, it's me, your senior brother... When you wake up, everything will be alright."
The cocoon seemed to sense something, trembled slightly, and cast a soft halo of light.
