201: Unprecedented Characteristics

“Hmm? Someone’s here?”

Chen Xuan suddenly sensed that a group of people was approaching his courtyard.

“This kid is quite cautious; he’s set up so many Formations in his courtyard!” Dai Dabai grumbled from outside the courtyard.

“It’s only right for Brother Chen to be cautious, but the object of his caution shouldn’t be us!” Tang Sirui explained.

He seemed to be excusing Chen Xuan, but his words were full of provocation.

“Hmph, he’s just a… Genius from the Lower Realm, what do we have to gain from him, that he’d guard against us! Don’t you agree, Zhu Zhu!” Zhai Ningning said indignantly.

‘Hmph, you want a lot from Brother Chen Xuan, but it’s best this way. Without you beautiful women flaunting yourselves in front of him, I’m the happiest!’

“Not at all, he’s probably in Cultivation. It’s just that this Cultivation period is quite important, which is why he set up the Formations,” Zhu Zhu explained.

“Mm, that should be it. After all, it’s the Cultivation Technique I personally gave him, so it’s natural for him to value it!” Jade Master said proudly.

“But Chen Xuan is truly a Genius. I had just given him the Cultivation Technique, and he immediately caused such a big commotion. He must have already summoned his own Immortal Soul, but I’m not sure what kind of Immortal Soul it is, to cause such a big commotion!”

Jade Master was still amazed, while a hint of jealousy flashed in Tang Sirui’s eyes. (For reasons everyone understands, let’s give him a nickname.)

“It should be some kind of special Immortal Soul. Chen Xuan has always been very mysterious. I think it’s better if we don’t disturb him!” Tang Sirui suggested.

“Hmph, he’s just someone from the Lower Realm. So many of us came, and he didn’t even come out to greet us. He truly doesn’t understand manners!” Influenced by Tang Sirui, Ma Ji said with some displeasure.

“Alright, Chen Xuan is our companion after all. He’s in Cultivation, so let’s not disturb him!” Zhu Zhu frowned.

“Hmph, Zhu Zhu, why are you siding with him so much? You’re the most formidable among us sisters, how can you associate with this guy!” Zhai Ningning mumbled.

Upon hearing this, Dai Dabai felt a little more comfortable in his heart. After all, Zhu Zhu was excusing Chen Xuan, who was ‘one of their own,’ so she was clearly still on his side. As long as he performed well, he might still win the beauty’s heart!

As for her falling for Chen Xuan? Don’t be ridiculous. How could a noble Young Miss look down on someone from the Lower Realm?

“Alright, alright, everyone stop bickering!” Jade Master spoke up to stop them, “Now is not the time for us to discuss these matters. Let’s quickly go in and see Chen Xuan’s current situation!”

“Right, Jade Master is right, let’s go in and see Chen Xuan’s current situation!” Dai Dabai echoed.

The group walked into Chen Xuan’s courtyard and were somewhat surprised to see the dense Formations in the yard.

“This Chen Xuan is truly not simple. These Formations are so exquisitely arranged; one look tells you they were set by a Great Master!” Jade Master couldn’t help but praise.

“Indeed, these Formations look very profound; they’re not something an ordinary person could arrange!” Dai Dabai also echoed.

“Hmph, they’re just minor tricks, what’s there to praise! Once my Seven-Star Pagoda is out, it’ll definitely be a piece of cake!” Zhai Ningning said dismissively.

“Ningning, don’t talk nonsense. Chen Xuan’s Formations are all very exquisite. Without enough strength and skill, it would be impossible to arrange them! If it’s against an enemy, and you rely on brute force, the enemy would already be prepared!” Zhu Zhu said seriously.

Zhai Ningning glanced at Zhu Zhu and said nothing more.

Then, everyone arrived at the door of Chen Xuan’s room, and just as they were about to knock, the door opened by itself.

Chen Xuan walked out of the room, saw the group, and smiled, “Apologies for making everyone wait. I just finished Cultivating, and when I heard your voices, I hurried out to greet you!”

“It’s fine, we didn’t wait long!” Dai Dabai smiled, “How is it, Chen Xuan, have you summoned your Immortal Soul?”

“Mm, I just successfully summoned it!” Chen Xuan nodded and smiled.

“That’s truly wonderful!” Dai Dabai said happily, “What is your Immortal Soul? I can already feel your power, quickly let us see!”

“Yes, I thought you would need quite some time to summon it. I didn’t expect you to cause such a big commotion before we even started practicing!” Jade Master said with a smile.

It’s good to have a Genius; he likes Geniuses the most.

“Yes, Chen Xuan, what exactly is your Immortal Soul? Why did it cause such a big commotion?” Tang Sirui asked curiously.

Chen Xuan gave a slightly awkward laugh, “Uh, I’m sorry, my Immortal Soul is a Peach Tree!”

“A Peach Tree?!” Jade Master said in surprise, then looked somewhat disappointed.

“A Peach Tree!!” The members of the Monster Group also repeated, some with relaxed expressions, others with disdain.

Indeed, this is not a world that judges by appearance.

“Plant-type, tree-category, immobile… It should be a support-type Immortal Soul! Summon it for me to see!”

“Alright!”

As soon as Chen Xuan finished speaking, he immediately summoned his Peach Tree.

“Wow, is this your… Chen Xuan’s Immortal Soul? It’s so beautiful!” Zhu Zhu couldn’t help but exclaim.

The others also nodded in agreement.

“Indeed, this Peach Tree is truly beautiful!” Dai Dabai also couldn’t help but praise, “Chen Xuan, this Peach Tree should have some special ability, right?! Just like my White Tiger, it naturally grants me immense strength!”

Chen Xuan nodded, “Yes, my Peach Tree can emit a captivating fragrance that makes people enter a state of peace and joy.”

…

…

“Uh, this ability is quite practical!” Tang Sirui mocked, “If on the battlefield, your Peach Tree could play a certain auxiliary role, making enemies relax their vigilance!”

“You can’t say that. What if it makes people more peaceful and undisturbed by external things?” Yan Xi also said with a smile.

Chen Xuan heard this, smiled, and did not say more.

He merely simplified the description of this function. The fragrance of his Immortal Soul had an extremely terrifying effect; it could temporarily dissipate all of a person’s hostility, simply put, a 'forgiveness hat' – put it on, and you’d forgive the other party.

However, this function had a fatal flaw: it was ineffective on women and would slightly boost their Cultivation, which was the Cauldron physique at work.

“Chen Xuan, your Peach Tree Immortal Soul is indeed quite good. Although it’s plant-type, it has some special abilities, and it can indeed play a very good auxiliary role!” Although Jade Master was somewhat disappointed, he still praised him, thinking that Chen Xuan was already a support.

“Yes, Chen Xuan, you really struck gold this time!” Dai Dabai said with a smile, “I thought your Immortal Soul would be some powerful offensive Immortal Soul, but I didn’t expect it to be such a beautiful Peach Tree!”

Dai Dabai also gave a forced compliment, though the Peach Tree was genuinely beautiful.

“How about, everyone tries my fragrance? See if it can help everyone calm down and Cultivate faster and more conveniently!” Chen Xuan suddenly suggested.

“Good, good, good! Let me try!” Ma Ji was the first to be impatient. He walked under the Peach Tree and took a sniff.

“How does it feel?” Yan Xi asked.

“Mm, it feels pretty good. I feel terrifyingly calm right now.” Ma Ji was expressionless, without any emotion.

“The effect is so good, I’ll try!” Yan Xi also pulled Tang Sirui and quickly walked over.

Even Jade Master and Dai Dabai were very curious about this and came over to take a sniff.

By this point, all the males present, except Chen Xuan, had fallen under its effect.

“Do you ladies want to try?” Chen Xuan looked at the three women and said with a chuckle.
