Chapter 186: The Warm Fragrance After Awakening, and... the "Miracle" Casually Mentioned

As the first ray of morning sunlight pierced through the gloom of the Northern Territory, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes.

"Mmm... my waist is a bit sore."

Jiang Chen muttered as he sat up, and before he could even stretch, he felt a few warm bodies in his arms stir.

Iliya's nine large golden tails slid smoothly across his waist; the little fox was bleary-eyed, her pair of irresistibly cute fox ears twitched, and she leaned over to plant a wet kiss on his face.

"Master, good morning."

"Brother Jiang Chen, are you awake?" Mu Qingxue also opened her eyes, her originally cold and aloof eyes now overflowing with thick, inseparable moisture.

Due to the nourishment of the Pure Yang Qi last night, the Cold Poison in her Supreme Yin Sacred Body had been suppressed to the extreme, and her fair, jade-like skin was tinged with a faint pink, making her look like a ripe peach, tempting one to pick it.

Su Qingyue was even more direct; after the Awakening of her Heavenly Phoenix Bloodline, her energy was unbelievably vigorous.

She wrapped her arms around his neck, her breath as sweet as orchids:

"Master, that Dragon last night... was so mighty. When can you let me experience that kind of... 'impact' as well?"

As she spoke, she intentionally or unintentionally moved her... waist.

Jiang Chen almost couldn't catch his breath.

This kind of Shura field wasn't just a sore waist; it was literally life-threatening!

"Get off, get off, stop messing around, this War God needs to go out and take a look." Jiang Chen patted Su Qingyue's perky backside with a righteous look, but inside, he was frantically complaining: System, can you add an abstinence buff to this "myriad heavens formless bed"? If I keep sleeping like this, I'm afraid I'll die here before my Realm even increases.

After Jiang Chen finally managed to crawl out of the encirclement of several enchantresses and walked out of the tent fully dressed, he was stunned by the scene before him.

He saw two rows of people kneeling neatly outside the tent.

All of them were dressed in plain robes with ancient swords, and everyone was as motionless as a stone statue in the wind and snow.

The leader, Elder Han Jue, had his white hair covered in frost, and his aura was weak, but his eyes were shining, clearly having kept watch here all night.

"War God Jiang... you have finally awakened!"

When Elder Han Jue saw Jiang Chen come out, his expression was even more excited than seeing his own father.

Jiang Chen was a bit confused.

He rubbed his messy hair, yawned, and looked at the other person with dazed eyes:

"Old man, who are you? Early in the morning, are you here doing cosplay as a stone statue?"

Elder Han Jue looked ashamed and kowtowed heavily: "This Junior is Han Jue of the Snow Mountain Sword Sect. Last night, I wanted to observe the War God's vision but was unfortunately overwhelmed by the War God's Divine Might. Fortunately, I received the War God's 'divine hand' guidance. This Junior is tearfully grateful and specifically waited here to await your orders!"

Jiang Chen: "..."

What the hell is a divine hand, I just thought you were noisy and wanted you to shut up.

Jiang Chen scratched his butt, originally wanting to tell them to get lost, but when he saw the ancient sword on Elder Han Jue's back, the System's scanning interface automatically popped up.

【System Prompt: Detected defective Sword Intent 'Avalanche', with seventeen vulnerabilities. Core vulnerability: The sword technique is too extreme, the Qi channels are obstructed, and every move causes self-damage of eight hundred.】

Jiang Chen muttered casually: "I say, old man, your sword technique is really trash. A perfectly good 'Avalanche' set, you had to turn it into 'urinary incontinence'. If you could connect your Qi channels between the 'Tianshu' and 'Juque' Acupoints, you wouldn't be stuck without entering the War God Realm by now."

The whole scene was dead silent. You could hear a pin drop.

Elder Han Jue's expression froze instantly.

He looked as if he had been struck by lightning, standing there stiffly.

"Tianshu... Juque..."

He kept muttering these two Acupoints in his mouth.

These were taboos of the Snow Mountain Sword Sect for three thousand years! Because previous Ancestral Masters believed that the Qi channels there could not be connected, they could only unleash Sword Intent by sacrificing their lifespan.

"Connect... could it be..."

Elder Han Jue subconsciously circulated his internal energy according to the route Jiang Chen had casually mentioned.

"Crack!"

It was as if some Bottleneck in his body had been instantly shattered.

A terrifying Sword Intent shot straight into the clouds, and his originally stagnant Realm actually loosened at this moment!

Boom—!

The accumulated clouds in the sky were actually cut open by this streak of Sword Intent!

Elder Han Jue laughed wildly, then tears streamed down his face, and he kowtowed nine times to Jiang Chen, making a thunderous sound.

"War God Jiang! You are truly a heavenly being!"

"With one glance, you saw through our sect's three-thousand-year-old puzzle! This one sentence is worth more than ten thousand gold? This is the grace of rebirth!"

The surrounding Snow Mountain Sword Sect Disciples were completely crazy; the look in their eyes when they looked at Jiang Chen was no longer fear, but fanatical faith!

Even a few female Disciples, looking at Jiang Chen's handsome face that appeared slightly lazy and decadent from just waking up, felt their legs going weak.

Jiang Chen was completely helpless.

I really... was just complaining casually!

What is wrong with this world?

No one believes the truth, but when I talk nonsense, you actually upgrade on the spot?

"Alright, alright, since you've realized it, hurry up and leave, don't be an eyesore here, this War God needs to eat breakfast." Jiang Chen waved his hand, looking disgusted.

"Yes! Yes! This Junior will roll away right now! Rolling away!"

Elder Han Jue had no trace of an Elder's demeanor at this moment; he spoke obsequiously like a lackey: "However, War God Jiang, the 'Fox Ancestor ruins' deep in the Northern Territory are about to open. If you have any orders, the entire Snow Mountain Sword Sect is willing to clear the path for the War God, even if the whole sect dies in battle, we will never frown!"

Jiang Chen waved his hand impatiently, but thought to himself: Fox Ancestor ruins? Sounds like a good place to sleep.

【System: Snow Mountain Sword Sect favorability has reached 'Unwavering until Death'.】

【Because the host's casual guidance caused the combat power System to collapse, rewarded with a pair of 'Chaos Sleep Eye Mask' (Divine Sense reinforcement version).】

Jiang Chen looked at the eye mask with a small purple cat embroidered on it in his hand, then looked at the group of Sword Cultivators in the distance who were thanking him profusely and wishing they could give him all their family assets, and sighed deeply.

"Sigh, this damn, nowhere-to-place charm and talent."

He turned around and crawled back into the tent with his three beautiful wives and soft, fragrant warmth.

"Wives, that old man was too noisy just now, shall we take a nap?"

Iliya's fox tail immediately wrapped around him.

"Master... this time, shall we change positions while we sleep?"

The cold wind of the Northern Territory was still biting, but inside Jiang Chen's tent, it was a scene of vitality and Yin and Yang harmony.

And the news of the entire Snow Mountain Sword Sect submitting spread instantly throughout the Northern Territory along with the bone-chilling wind.

The name of the generation's "Sleep God" officially resounded throughout the polar region.
