65: April is over!
Inside the primal origin space.
Chu Yuan sat cross-legged, rapidly recovering from his injuries with the help of the thrice-enhanced green fruit.
About an hour after leaving Sword Dragon Abyss, he found a cave and retreated into the primal origin space.
His injuries were somewhat severe, and coupled with significant spiritual vortex energy depletion, it was not suitable for him to travel in the wilderness.
“Hoo!”
Chu Yuan felt that most of his injuries had recovered, and he couldn't help but let out a long breath.
Swallowing another thrice-enhanced green fruit, Chu Yuan's expression was thoughtful.
“Ghost King!”
“According to the information in Xing Yunting's words, a fifth-tier Ghostly Creature can be called a Ghost King?”
“Fifth-tier!”
“It seems easy to kill a fourth-tier, but somewhat difficult for a fifth-tier.”
“Especially when the opponent has a killing move, it's even more so.”
As Chu Yuan thought this, his eyes were also thoughtful.
“No!”
“That Ghost King just said he was injured. It should be true, so my actual combat power should be adjusted down a bit!”
Chu Yuan muttered, secretly vowing in his heart that he would never take such risks again.
Time passed, he didn't know how long.
Chu Yuan, having fully recovered to his Peak, stepped out of the primal origin space and headed in the predetermined direction.
He wondered if the Demon Suppression Branch Hall in Cuiyun City had the subsequent Cultivation Technique for the Heavenly Revelation Secret Codex?
But he had to go and see!
...Meanwhile, on the other side.
Xing Yunting was very puzzled.
He had followed the direction towards Cuiyun City, and was almost there, but still saw no sign of Chu Yuan.
He went to the city gate to ask the guards, but the news he received left him somewhat stunned.
Such a person had not arrived at all?!
“Strange!”
“I sensed carefully along the way, where did that kid go?”
“Did he not come to Cuiyun City?”
Xing Yunting's brows furrowed in confusion. Although his speed wasn't fast, it wasn't slow either; catching up to a Spirit Vortex Realm cultivator shouldn't be difficult.
And he had sensed along the way, and that kid's presence wasn't there.
But if he didn't come, where did that kid go?
“He couldn't have... met with an accident, could he?”
Xing Yunting was somewhat puzzled, but could only sigh helplessly.
“I hope that kid has good Luck!”
He shook his head and entered the city.
He also had his own matters to attend to; he couldn't go looking for a stranger, a young man.
Who knew which direction he went?
...Four months passed leisurely.
At this moment, on a cliff.
A disheveled young man in tattered clothes stood against the wind, gazing into the distance.
The young man was tall and well-proportioned, like a straight white poplar, giving off a sense of steadiness.
His facial features were distinct, with smooth lines. Beneath his sword-like brows and star-like eyes, his gaze was deep, occasionally shifting with an intensity that seemed capable of easily captivating one's Soul.
Even though he was in rags at the moment, his face was clean, his hair flew in the wind, and a unique aura emanated from him.
This person was none other than Chu Yuan!
Four months ago, he chose the direction where Xing Yunting appeared, intending to go to Cuiyun City.
However, he didn't expect that he would keep walking through deep mountains and old forests.
Two months later, he realized he was still in the deep mountains, and only then did he become aware.
He must have taken the wrong direction.
After that, he simply made the best of it and continued walking in one direction.
In his opinion, as long as he was still within the Great Xia Dynasty, which city he went to didn't matter?
After four months, with the primal divine crystal helping to conceal him, he had a journey full of surprises but no real danger, and finally saw signs of Human Race habitation again.
Chu Yuan looked at the distant, faintly visible cluster of buildings, a smile appearing on his face.
“Finally, I see signs of Human Race habitation...”
Chu Yuan murmured softly, his eyes showing a hint of fatigue, but more so, a smile.
“Oh, speaking of which, today happens to be my birthday. Looking at this situation, my Luck should be good this year!”
Chu Yuan muttered; strictly speaking, today should be his birthday in this life!
“Now that I've seen signs of Human Race habitation, I'll first make myself a roasted meal to reward myself!”
Chu Yuan took out some firewood and a tinderbox, then lit the firewood.
Afterward, he sat down, took out some Yao Beast meat, and began to roast it.
Then, a sliver of his consciousness entered the primal origin space, his gaze falling upon the light screen.

Four months passed. Because he lacked subsequent Cultivation Techniques, his strength did not improve much.
However, both his Meteor Sword Technique and Saber Technique were further enhanced by him.
The strongest move of the Second-Rate Meteor Sword Technique, "Meteor Slash," although not as powerful as Night Mantis's Ghost Claw, was not much weaker.
The Third-Rate Chaotic Star Saber Technique was not much different in power from the Second-Rate Meteor Sword Technique.
As for the others... his Formation did not Breakthrough!
However, after four months of roasting meat and cooking porridge with Spirit Medicine, the light screen displayed the skill of Culinary Skills Entry, which he enhanced to Major Achievement.
Now, although he still only knew how to roast meat and cook medicinal porridge and meat porridge, what he made were delicious dishes with perfect color, aroma, and taste.
Chu Yuan's thoughts stirred slightly, he dismissed this light screen and looked at another one.

...Over four months, while the source primordial power recovered somewhat, Chu Yuan also used it to slightly improve his own attributes.
Luck was the first priority!
Three months ago, after reaching Earth-Grade 82, it declared insufficient energy.
He tried to enhance his Charm at that time, but unexpectedly it worked, and it increased to 80 in one go before declaring insufficient energy.
Two months ago, he enhanced his Will to 62, then it declared insufficient energy.
When he tried to enhance Charm again, it only enhanced once, increasing to 81.
A month ago, he enhanced his Comprehension Ability to Spirit Rank 80. After insufficient energy, when he tried to enhance Charm again, it still only enhanced once.
But even so, he now looked as handsome as any handsome man on screen.
Chu Yuan dismissed the light screen, that sliver of consciousness returned, and he continued to roast the meat.
He looked into the distance, muttering to himself, “Now, my Luck, Comprehension Ability, Charm, and Will should be sufficient for the time being.”
“In the future, I should accumulate more energy for unforeseen needs!”
As Chu Yuan thought this, his movements were continuous, as he continued to roast the meat in his hand.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind him, startling him.
