283: Skills Brought by the Spirit of the Secret Realm

“I’ve already investigated; this is indeed my true body. And… it’s my body from tens of thousands of years ago!

So the question is, my true body was clearly destroyed in that great tribulation, so how did you obtain it? And, you seem to know that this is me! Although the Primordial World isn’t too far from here, it’s definitely not something a Lower Realm Cultivator like you could know about!”

“Sigh, it’s a long story!” Chen Xuan seemed to recall something, then sighed, preparing to say what he had thought of from the beginning.

“Then make it short! I find you to be a very wishy-washy person!” Bi Xiao frowned.

“Actually, I was originally from the Primordial World. Due to some fortuitous encounters in my early years, I inexplicably arrived in this Small World.”

“Although it’s a bit presumptuous, I still have to ask, what kind of fortuitous encounter?”

“It was an altar.”

“An altar?”

“I don’t know what I did at the time; I only know that after I stepped onto the altar, I immediately lost consciousness and fainted. When I opened my eyes again, I had already arrived in this world.

And that altar didn’t disappear; it directly integrated into… my body!”

“Integrated into your body!?!?”

“That’s right. I think this thing should be some kind of treasure. I can’t take it out, but I can tell you its function: it’s for sacrifice!”

“Just tell me everything directly, so I don’t have to keep asking.”

“Uh, no problem!”

“After I obtained this altar, I could vaguely perceive the Luck on others. And this altar needs precisely their Luck. As long as I seize their Luck through special means, I can perform a sacrifice!”

“But what does this have to do with me…?”

“Immortal Sister, wait for me to finish!”

“Each time I sacrificed, the rewards the altar gave me varied. One time, I suddenly acquired a large amount of Luck, and then I sacrificed it all at once. The altar directly summoned you and informed me of your information. That’s how it happened.”

“So that’s how it is…”

“But I really didn’t know that your true self could also sense it and personally rushed over. Otherwise…”

“Otherwise what? Otherwise, you audacious fellow, you would do indescribable things to me?” Bi Xiao said in a cold tone.

“How could I dare, how could I dare? This true body of yours has no cultivation whatsoever and is as dull as a puppet, completely uninteresting. Most importantly, she also wasted a lot of my Luck. If I had known earlier…”

“Shut up! It’s your good fortune that you can summon this maiden! Others can’t even beg for such good fortune, and you still think it’s a waste? I truly gave you the Secret Realm Spirit for nothing!”

Bi Xiao, angered, stepped forward and stomped on Chen Xuan’s foot, making him grimace in pain.

“Cough, cough, Immortal Sister’s lesson is right. Doesn’t this just show how short-sighted I am, only seeing the tiny bit of immediate gain!”

“By the way, speaking of that Secret Realm Spirit, what skill did you gain after absorbing it?”

“Well… I was fortunate enough to obtain a relatively Heaven-Defying skill. This is all thanks to Immortal Sister!” Chen Xuan respectfully bowed to Bi Xiao.

The Immortal Sister was indeed very good to him.

“Alright, alright, seeing you, kid, being so serious feels a bit strange. Tell me, what exactly is the skill?”

“It’s… devouring worlds and controlling worlds! Of course, controlling worlds is limited to my own Small World.”

“Devouring?”

“Actually, it’s the law of conservation of energy. Simply put, I can directly increase the area of my own Small World infinitely by absorbing the matter from a Secret Realm, a Grotto-Heaven, or a Small World, rather than just stacking fixed spaces.”

“So that means…”

“Exactly. If I want to, I can absorb the Cultivation World outside little by little at any time to expand my Small World! However, doing so would require a lot of time, and if discovered, I might get beaten.”

Bi Xiao: “…”

“Everyone else has normal attack methods, so why did yours become so… unique?”

“You mean abstract, right! Actually, I thought so too at first, but then I realized I could also absorb other people’s attacks, and I felt relieved.”

“?!?!!!”

“Immortal Sister, don’t disbelieve me. I, Chen Xuan, never lie! This extremely important trump card, I’ve only told you!

Of course, if I encounter someone of too high a Rank, let alone absorbing their energy, they would kill me in one hit! Similarly, even if my cultivation becomes the same as yours in the future, if I absorb your attack into my Small World, my Small World might directly collapse, unable to withstand it. So, it’s only useful now, and its most fundamental ability is infinite growth!” Chen Xuan explained carefully.

What he didn’t say, though, was that once his Small World grew to the level of the Primordial World, Bi Xiao’s attacks would be insignificant.

As for a stronger Saint? What a joke! The Primordial World couldn’t even withstand a Saint’s attack, so even if his Small World grew into the Primordial World, it would be impossible to absorb a Saint’s attack!

“So that’s how it is. But even so, it’s very powerful. Not everyone can shatter a Small World with one blow; at least… forget it, it’s too early to tell you now; it won’t do you any good!”

Chen Xuan: “…”

Good heavens, you’re also becoming a riddle-teller, aren’t you!

“What skill did that tree give you?”

“Ah? That tree, just forget about it! Forget it, forget it!” Chen Xuan waved his hand, trying to brush it off.

“What, can’t I know what skill it is? You just told me that such an important matter you only told me!”

“Immortal Sister, do you really want to know?”

“It’s not that I really want to know, but the more you don’t say, the more curious I become!”

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan’s face darkened.

Then he waved his hand, directly summoning Lin Rou.

The moment Lin Rou appeared, she first froze for a moment, then saw Chen Xuan, and immediately pounced on him, locking him in an embrace:

“Damn Chen Xuan, you’re not allowed to lock me up with your Peach Tree again! That stupid penguin kept squawking and squawking, and there was also a silly roe deer, constantly asking endless questions. I was so annoyed!”

“Uh, yes, yes, yes, I’ll never take you back again, alright! Come down first, Immortal Sister is still watching! Don’t you care about your Mother of Life image anymore!”

“You still know I’m the Mother of Life?! Do I even have an image with you?!”

As soon as this was mentioned, Lin Rou became even angrier. She didn’t care about any Immortal Sister!

“Uh, how about, Rou’er, you look at where we are?”

“No, don’t call me Rou’er!”

When Lin Rou heard Chen Xuan’s words, she separated from him at lightning speed as if electrocuted, her face flushed red.
