Chapter 212 Xiao Wu leaves
Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Chen Xuan and Xiao Wu lived in the Xingdou Great Forest. The central area was very quiet and undisturbed, so they lived a peaceful and simple life.
A week passed quickly, and the two of them lived a simple and leisurely life in their own world, away from the hustle and bustle of the world. It was a brief period of isolation from the world.
Chen Xuan moved into Xiao Wu's boudoir and slept in the same bed. However, in all these days, he didn't take a single step and did nothing. He just rested.
In fact, he had tried hard and had been bold, but Xiao Wu's attitude was very tough. Not to mention doing things that negatively distanced her, even kissing was rare.
This period of time can be said to be Chen Xuan's darkest moment. He was with the beautiful woman day and night, but he couldn't do anything. This made him very uncomfortable and he couldn't vent his anger.
Finally, he couldn't take it anymore. If he continued like this, his health would really be in trouble, so he decided to just go into seclusion.
Chen Xuan found a good place, a cave halfway up a mountain, which was very suitable for seclusion and cultivation.
There is a large amount of vitality remaining in his body that has not been refined. With every day that passes, vitality will be lost, and it cannot be wasted any longer.
"Perhaps, I can try to impact the Samsara Eye." Chen Xuan said to himself, a very bold idea popping up in his mind.
The conditions for opening the Rinnegan are very harsh. Yin Release Chakra, Yang Shield Chakra, Hashirama's cells and the Eternal Eye are all indispensable.
Chen Xuan didn't lack much. Apart from the Eternal Eye, he had fused with Hashirama's cells and naturally gained Yang-tun Chakra. When combined with his own Yin-tun Chakra, it might be possible for him to succeed.
The Six Paths Sage was able to open the Rinnegan from the Three Magatama, and his current conditions are not bad. If that is not the best, it should be no problem for him to open the Rinnegan from the Mangekyō, right?
"You can give it a try. There's plenty of time anyway." Chen Xuan made up his mind to refine the vitality in his body first. He should be able to evolve into an immortal body, and then practicing immortal arts would be a piece of cake.
Afterwards, he said something to Xiao Wu, then turned around and went into the cave to start his long-awaited training.
When he drew out the rich life force in his body, the world behind his heart suddenly vibrated, and the plant resonated with it, directly snatching away the initiative over his body.
This plant is very domineering. The nine red agate-like fruits tremble lightly, as if opening a huge mouth of the abyss, pulling in the vitality in Chen Xuan's body and starting to suck it madly.
Speaking of which, this plant was the first one opened from the system gift package. At first, it only had the effect of evolving martial soul and cleansing the essence and marrow, but it had a very high growth potential and took root in his heart.
At that time, it first absorbed the dual cultivation fruit that it and Xiao Wu had eaten, then absorbed the energy of the soul ring, and finally swallowed up the highly toxic substance bestowed by Qian Renxue. Now this strange plant has evolved into the fairy level.
Chen Xuan had long anticipated that this plant would snatch his life force from him, but he didn't care at all. It was all within his expectations.
It is like a converter. A small part of any matter and life force it absorbs will be returned as purer and richer natural energy.
What was strange to Chen Xuan was that the plant absorbed the energy very slowly, much slower than any other time before. He wondered if it had reached saturation or had evolved to the final stage.
Time passed, and seven days went by in a flash.
In the cave, Chen Xuan was still sitting there. So many days had passed, but he still hadn't ended his retreat. It took longer than expected.
In fact, it was not until today that he had completely refined the remaining vitality in his body, and more than half of it was absorbed by the strange object.
Chen Xuan was extremely surprised, and something unexpected happened during this period. All the Hashirama cells flowing in his body were sucked away by the plant. Not even a bit of energy was left. All was drained dry. It was beyond his expectations.
Time passed, and five days went by in a blink of an eye. Beads of sweat appeared on his body, and some bad substances were squeezed out of his flesh and blood, making his body lighter.
Moreover, the plant began to return energy and merge into the flesh, blood, and internal organs. Chen Xuan discovered that the heart was glowing, very dimly, and there was a warm current flowing to the limbs and bones, but very slowly.
Then, he was surprised to find that the purity of the Wood Release he mastered had increased. It was only 30% originally, but now it was slowly increasing.
"This thing can really purify energy." Chen Xuan was surprised. Although he had expected it, he was still shocked. He really didn't expect that even something like Hashirama's cells could be refined.
If one wants to master Wood Release 100%, one must possess the body of a sage. Simply melting Hashirama's cells will not yield more than 50% of the result at best.
Now it seems that as long as one achieves the body of a sage, one can master the Wood Release technique 100% and obtain chakra comparable to that of the Ten-Tails, which is inexhaustible.
Fusion takes a long time. Chen Xuan had misjudged it before. He estimated that it would not be completed so quickly. It would take at least one or two months, or at most half a year. He simply told Xiao Wu. He walked out of the cave and returned to the cozy cabin. He said, "I may have to practice for a long time in the future. Do you have any plans?"
If Xiao Wu has something to do, he can put his retreat aside for now and accompany her to finish important things first.
"It's been more than half a month. My daughter must be very lonely with Zhuqing. I want to go see Qiu'er." Xiao Wu said, missing her daughter Chen Qiu'er very much.
Before returning to the Xingdou Great Forest, she entrusted Qiu'er to Zhu Zhuqing's care. It has been a month now.
"Okay, I also want to see our child. I'll accompany you tomorrow. We can talk about cultivation later." Chen Xuan spoke. He also wanted to see what his precious daughter looked like and how much she looked like him.
However, Xiao Wu shook her head and said, "Chen Xuan, you don't have to worry about me. Just take care of your own things first."
"What are you talking about? Cultivation is not as important as you and your daughter." Chen Xuan was indeed worried about her going alone, and was concerned that she would encounter danger on the way.
Xiao Wu shook her head and said softly, "You really don't have to worry about me. I'm very powerful now. Da Ming and Er Ming are here to protect you. No one can disturb you. It's very suitable for you to cultivate your soul power."
Chen Xuan thought for a moment and decided that in terms of safety, the central area of the Star Dou Great Forest was the best place and very suitable for him to retreat for a long time.
However, he only has a wife like this who has not yet married him, and he is really worried about her.
"Okay, you really don't have to worry about me. I'm strong now and don't need your protection anymore!" Xiao Wu said as Chen Xuan waved his fist to show his strength.
"Oh, that's amazing! It looks like you won't need my protection anymore. I can only protect other people." Chen Xuan said in an exaggerated manner.
"You dare!" Xiao Wu glared at him, raised her pink fist, hit his chest, and said viciously: "From now on, you can only protect me and my daughter, do you hear me!"
"I don't want to talk to you anymore. I have to pack my things now and go to the Xingluo Empire soon. You just stay in the Xingdou Great Forest and don't go anywhere!"
Xiao Wu was very domineering. She pressed Chen Xuan's shoulders and sat down, pretending to be stern and warning him not to follow her.
"Okay, take the two kunai I carved with you. If you encounter danger, break one of them and I will sense it immediately." Chen Xuan took out two silver kunai and told her to keep them with her and not lose them.
Given Xiao Wu's lively personality, he was really afraid that the other party would not care and just leave it somewhere.
"I know. I'm a child again. If you don't come to see me in a month, I will bring Qiu'er back to see you." Xiao Wu stretched out her jade hand and gently touched his forehead.
This time, Chen Xuan grabbed the fair and slender wrist. It was alright last time, but do you still want to tease him now? No way!
"You hurt me!" Xiao Wu was unhappy and frowned slightly.
Chen Xuan let go and said, "If you dare to tease me again, I will fight back. This will be a good opportunity to create a brother for my daughter."
"I don't want a son. If you want to have one, you can do it yourself. Besides, Qiu'er definitely doesn't want a younger brother." Xiao Wu snorted and stuck out her tongue at Chen Xuan.
"It's getting late. I have to leave now." She had already packed her luggage and put it all into the soul guide storage device.
Chen Xuan accompanied her for a while, and stopped after walking a few miles. He said, "Be careful, don't make me worry."
Xiao Wu blushed slightly and said coquettishly, "Okay, I get it. You have to behave yourself at home. When the time comes, I will bring Qiu'er back to see you."
Chen Xuan's forehead was covered with black lines. This was really the opposite of Tian Gang. However, he didn't care too much and watched Xiao Wu leave until she disappeared at the end of the forest.
"It's time for me to go back and continue my retreat." He walked back and took out a green animal bag from his arms. The bag was about the same size as a brocade bag and contained dozens of magical herbs.
This item was snatched from Tang San five years ago, and was given to Xiao Wu for safekeeping after his death.
