104: Chapter 104 Innate Physique, Body of Ten Thousand Poisons
"Kid, seize the opportunity. You might be able to take advantage of this to advance to a Nine-Star Dou Master..." Suddenly, Elder Dan's voice rang out, reminding him in his heart.
When the vortex had swallowed all the energy in his meridians, it did not stop its predatory rotation, maintaining a high-speed spin.
An even more ferocious suction force erupted and radiated from it.
Hun Tiandi did not hesitate in the slightest. He grabbed the jade bottle beside him and drank it down in gulps. The energy of the huitian spirit wine was refined through his meridians.
More and more energy was absorbed and poured into the growing vortex.
With this endless absorption, Hun Tiandi's body and mind became one. He did not know how much time had passed, but when the external energy being absorbed grew weaker and weaker, it finally disappeared completely.
He finally recovered and slowly opened his eyes.
After three days of focused cultivation, he broke through to a Nine-Star Dou Master as expected. This breakthrough had absolutely no obstacles.
"Nine-Star Dou Master!"
It was as smooth as water overflowing from a full cup. He felt excited about the improvement in his strength.
A Nine-Star Dou Master? He had broken through. Hun Tiandi was somewhat surprised. After seven days of torture as an Eight-Star Dou Master, his Dou Qi had actually been tempered by spatial energy.
"Did you succeed in breaking through?" A hoarse voice drifted out from the bamboo house.
Elder Dan's illusory figure drifted out like a ghost.
He looked Hun Tiandi, who was sitting cross-legged, up and down, a look of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.
Hun Tiandi nodded upon hearing this. This breakthrough to Nine-Star Dou Master was purely an accidental gain.
Elder Dan laughed and said, "I originally thought you would be unconscious for at least a month before waking up. I didn't expect that in only seven days, not only have your injuries healed, but you have also turned misfortune into a blessing, breaking through the Eight-Star peak to advance to the rank of Nine-Star Dou Master."
"You must thank the silver-haired young lady outside. She even used several precious healing pills, which is why you woke up so quickly."
"I've actually been unconscious for seven days?" Hun Tiandi said in astonishment, asking urgently.
"Teacher, what happened that day?" As if thinking of something, Hun Tiandi asked.
Upon hearing him speak, a smile appeared on the corner of Elder Dan's mouth. The old man and the young man explained the cause and effect inside the bamboo house.
Hun Tiandi's handsome face flushed a mix of green and red.
"Hahaha!" Elder Dan laughed heartily, as if he had just seen a good show.
Hun Tiandi stood up, took out a green robe, put it on, and slowly walked out of the bamboo house, watching a beautiful figure busy at work.
The woman wore a silver robe that outlined her explosive figure. Her jade-like cheeks held a trace of coldness, revealing an ethereal, iceberg-like temperament.
This rare temperament was like a moonlight fairy, mesmerizing to behold.
A silver-white ribbon was tied around her willow-like waist. Seeing that waist, which could be encircled by a single hand, a glimmer of light flashed in the depths of Hun Tiandi's eyes.
Among the women he knew, Yu Xiao was noble and mysterious, Princess Nian Youyou was charming and tender, Senior Sister Liu Hanbing was cold and stunning, and Han Xue had sexy legs...
Yet the Silver-robed Woman before him likely had the slimmest waist among them all...
The light in Hun Tiandi's eyes vanished in the blink of an eye. Women would only affect the speed at which he drew his sword.
"Many thanks, Miss, for saving my life. Yun Tian will definitely repay you in the future."
Hun Tiandi stepped forward, revealed a gentle smile, and immediately cupped his hands to speak.
"You're awake. How are your injuries?" Upon hearing this, the silver-haired woman turned around, her stunningly beautiful face coming into view, and her ethereal voice echoed in his ears.
"Much better. Thank you for saving my life, Miss!" Hun Tiandi thanked her again.
"What's with all this 'Miss' business? It sounds so distant. My name is Hao Meili..."
A light smile appeared on the silver-haired woman's jade face, a brilliant smile that seemed to make the whole world shine with splendor.
"Hao Meili? This name is too domineering. Even if you are beautiful, you can't..." Upon hearing this, Hun Tiandi's expression froze as he complained wildly in his heart.
Rumble... Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from his stomach as a sense of hunger washed over him. Embarrassed, he looked up at Hao Meili, meeting her pair of lively, beautiful eyes.
"Hungry?" Hao Meili smiled sweetly, swaying her willow-like waist as she walked toward a bamboo house.
At this moment, Hun Tiandi looked around. This valley was filled with rich energy, making it a great place for cultivation.
He took a deep breath, and the rushing energy made his spirit feel refreshed.
"I discovered this place by accident. It is almost completely cut off from the outside world and is very secluded..." Hao Meili's voice sounded from behind. She was carrying a bamboo basket and looked somewhat smug as she observed Hun Tiandi's surprised expression.
"Very good, a great place for quiet cultivation."
He did not hesitate to praise it. In the valley, mushrooms of various colors grew, and there was even a well-tended herb garden planted with all sorts of precious medicinal herbs.
A rich fragrance permeated the air; taking a single breath caused the Dou Qi in his body to circulate a fraction faster.
"Wait a moment. Try my cooking; you definitely won't be disappointed!" Hao Meili said softly, carrying the bamboo basket as she walked toward the mushrooms.
"No problem!" Hun Tiandi agreed without hesitation; such a beautiful woman should have decent culinary skills.
He came to an open space, flipped his hand to take out the abi sword, closed his eyes slightly, then suddenly opened them and swung the long sword. Sharp sword light filled the air, resembling the crashing waves of a blue sea.
Blue sword Qi burst forth, weaving into a blue rainbow beside him. He used the Ten Thousand Sword Art with ease.
The sword Qi shrouded his body for three zhang, airtight and impenetrable. Each move and stance felt natural and seamless.
The realm of Sword Qi Rainbow was followed by the Dao Heart Sword Intent. Hun Tiandi still had no clue about grasping Sword Intent.
Sword Light, Sword Qi, Sword Glow, Sword Gang—the next step was the most crucial Sword Intent. Only by comprehending Sword Intent could the Ten Thousand Sword Art be considered to have entered the inner sanctum.
"Time to eat!" About half an hour later, Hao Meili's sweet voice rang out.
"Coming!" Hun Tiandi put away his long sword and walked toward the table in front of the bamboo house.
On the bamboo table were four dishes and a soup. The delicate side dishes and the colorful mushroom soup were all made with the freshest ingredients from the valley.
"Try the Five-Colored Mushroom Soup!" Hao Meili enthusiastically ladled out a bowl, her slender fingers handing it to Hun Tiandi.
"Slurp..." Hun Tiandi took it and couldn't wait to take a sip. The delicious mushroom soup made him feel happy.
He began to drink it in large gulps.
Watching him drink the soup in big gulps, a smile appeared on the corner of Hao Meili's mouth, and she began to eat as well.
"I'm so full!" Half an hour later, Hun Tiandi leaned back on a bamboo chair, feeling satiated. Since being trapped in the Minghai Forbidden Land, he hadn't had a proper meal.
After experiencing the terror of the space wormhole and a brush with death, his state of mind had changed. It was good to enjoy the present.
Seven days later, Hun Tiandi learned from Hao Meili that their current location was the southernmost part of the Northern Region of Central State, very close to the Central Region.
Upon learning that he was still in Central State, he breathed a sigh of relief and ate all the food prepared by Hao Meili.
Hao Meili's cold attitude became increasingly gentle, and she smiled more often.
On this day, after Hun Tiandi finished his cultivation, he looked around the valley but did not find Hao Meili's beautiful figure.
Usually at this time, Hao Meili would be picking ingredients and starting to prepare lunch. Why was it so quiet today?
A trace of doubt flashed in his heart. Elder Dan's voice rang out from the purple ring: "The bamboo house, wisps of black-purple gas are churning and permeating..."
"Hmm?" Hun Tiandi's eyes narrowed as he slowly approached the bamboo house. Through the crack in the door, sure enough, wisps of black-purple gas were flowing.
