The Birth of Sword God

Chapter 414 - 355: Capturing the Nascent Soul Lady and Making Her a Subordinate

Chu Huaixu, upon hearing what Wen Shiyu said, immediately thought of the Dao Ancestor.

If in the Profound Yellow Realm, there was someone who could traverse two worlds, journeying to Kunlun Cave Heaven to slay an Immortal Venerable and forcibly taking their Fruit Position back, then it could only be the Dao Ancestor who achieved such a feat!

Moreover, according to the timeline, this event happened a thousand years ago, coinciding exactly with the era of the Dao Ancestor.

The timeline indeed matches.

That’s why he asked Wen Shiyu this question.

At this moment, this female cultivator resembled the women from the "Hypnosis Series," her spirit completely controlled.

Upon hearing Chu Huaixu’s new question, she promptly, albeit with a somewhat blank expression, responded.

"It was a Daoist in a Daoist Robe."

The dead fox, upon hearing this, slightly exhaled, thinking, "It is indeed the Dao Ancestor, huh."

However, after pondering for a moment, he decided to verify once more.

Therefore, he picked up the sword scabbard left by the Dao Ancestor and lifted the "Calming the Storm" to ask:

"Was that person holding this black sword scabbard?"

Upon this question, Wen Shiyu took a careful look at the "Calming the Storm" and unexpectedly shook her head.

"He wasn’t carrying any Magical Treasures."

Upon hearing this, Chu Huaixu couldn’t help but frown slightly.

But then he thought, in fact, what was known as the Daoist Ancestor Sword Scabbard was merely a standard scabbard within the Junzi Temple back then.

It was merely crafted from ordinary Black Wood, not a rare object.

The Dao Ancestor’s lifebound object was not it at all!

It was simply a lifebound object used by Chu Huaixu to throw others off the scent nowadays.

"But come to think of it, if the person was really the Dao Ancestor and he did carry the sword scabbard, when I first entered the Origin Spirit Realm, Wen Shiyu wouldn’t have shown no reaction upon seeing the scabbard."

Upon this thought, he raised the sword scabbard again and pointed at the black bead on it.

"Did that person have such a black bead?"

At this time, Wen Shiyu nodded.

"He indeed had a black bead hanging at his waist."

Listening to this, Chu Huaixu was then able to confirm 100% that everything was done by the Dao Ancestor!

The black bead had no special features in terms of its appearance, not even transparent at all.

It didn’t look any different from ordinary decorative black beads.

Perhaps it was for this reason that Wen Shiyu didn’t initially pay attention to the pendant on the sword scabbard.

At this point, it was indeed a rare opportunity.

Taking advantage, Chu Huaixu asked Wen Shiyu a great many questions.

Basically, whatever came to his mind, he asked.

This provided him with a basic understanding of the powers on the Kunlun Cave Heaven side, and some of the layouts and schemes there.

As time ticked away second by second, there was not much time left until the exit of the Origin Spirit Realm would open.

He now needed to attempt something new.

"Is there any secret technique that allows your Primordial Spirit to recognize me as master?" he asked.

As the entrance and exit of the first four layers of the Origin Spirit Realm were single-person pathways,

this instance could only be entered and exited individually.

He couldn’t capture Wen Shiyu and take her back alive.

But the Primordial Spirit is different.

This was akin to exploiting a bug.

But as a precondition, the opponent must be at my disposal!

"With your current realm, it’s temporarily impossible to achieve that." Wen Shiyu answered honestly, still with a blank expression.

This made Chu Huaixu smile self-deprecatingly.

"Then I guess I’ll have to use the power of the Fruit Position."

He planned to give it a try.

This was not the time to be stingy.

He stimulated the Black Jade Lotus Platform within his Sea of Consciousness; it was indeed almost omnipotent!

Not long after, Chu Huaixu observed an opening of connection between his Divine Sense and Wen Shiyu’s Primordial Spirit!

It seemed that with merely a thought, she would be utterly destroyed.

"It actually worked?" he thought to himself joyfully.

Yes, yes, coming over here was worthwhile, receiving a Nascent Soul True Monarch as my subordinate!

But there is still one more issue.

"The special power of the Black Jade Lotus Platform is only effective in this small world."

"After all, it is a Fruit Position of Kunlun Cave Heaven."

"Once I retreat from here, back to the virtual world within the second layer of the Origin Spirit Realm, whether these effects can be maintained is still unknown."

But no worries, give it a try, then discover!

Chu Huaixu still acted very recklessly; he grabbed Wen Shiyu’s wet collar with one hand and dragged her back.

With a final leap, he jumped back to the second layer of the Origin Spirit Realm.

Upon landing, he couldn’t help but stagger a little.

For a simple reason, the surge of immense power in his body dissipated entirely within a split second.

The tripling effect on his overall combat power reverted to a mere third.

Yes, the once-cherished increase of a third, now could only be described as barely there.

There’s no other way, having experienced the ecstasy of tripling, there was an instant disparity in his heart.

Wen Shiyu, who was initially blank-faced and similar to the "Hypnosis Series," after a brief confusion, her eyes gradually gained clarity!

"Indeed, even such heavy effects will dissipate." Chu Huaixu thought to himself.

Besides this, the link between his Divine Sense and the opponent’s Primordial Spirit was significantly weakened.

Chu Huaixu could no longer destroy her Primordial Spirit with a mere thought.

Nonetheless, the shackle still existed, albeit much weaker.

Regarding this, he wasn’t particularly concerned.

When it comes to dealing with the Primordial Spirit, he doesn’t need to rely on the Black Jade Lotus Platform to provide an exploit.

Don’t forget, above the lotus platform, there floats a [Heart Sword]!

He only needs this master-servant shackle to still exist.

Once the Heart Sword emerges, it can still destroy the soul!

After Wen Shiyu was fully awakened, endless terror immediately appeared on her face.

"You... what have you done to me!"

The female cultivator, looking like a drenched chicken, couldn’t help but shout.

She could sense the existence of the master-servant contract.

However, compared to a conventional master-servant contract, it seemed... very weak?

Chu Huaixu glanced at her lightly, and directly grabbed her neck with one hand, lifting the severely injured Wen Shiyu up.

He raised his left hand and forcibly gouged the piece of Profound Yellow Origin Fragment from her forehead.

Amidst Wen Shiyu’s suppressed screams, he smiled and said,

"Much obliged."

How could he not feel embarrassed? Each time he came, the drop rate was doubled, and he could take two Origin Fragments back in one go.

As for who would use these two fragments, they still had to go back and discuss.

Privately, he definitely wanted to give them to Big Ice Cube (Shuangjiang) and Xiaoxu (Ziqing).

After all, they were his family.

He also valued the other elders of the Daoist Sect highly in his heart, but, to be honest with himself, they definitely ranked behind those two.

However, for the public or from the bigger picture, that’s another matter.

Or rather, based on the current situation, Han Shuangjiang and Xu Ziqing were not in urgent need of it.

If the Daoist Sect could gain one or even two Ninth Realm powerhouses, it would surely be a great thing for the current situation.

Moreover, the Master would soon enter the Fourth Layer of the Origin Spirit Realm.

According to the normal plot, she seemed to die there.

But if she refined the Profound Yellow Origin Fragment and had an extra strand of the Power of Origin in her body, that would be vastly different!

Chu Huaixu was currently of a lower Realm and couldn’t activate it.

But as long as the cultivation was above the Fifth Realm, the boost it brought was simply too great.

Simply put, it could make you unrivaled at the initial stage of the Fifth Realm!

Moreover, Shen Man was already known as the strongest at the Seventh Realm; it would be even more terrifying.

"But now is not the time to think about these things," Chu Huaixu thought to himself.

This matter is not urgent; it can be slowly considered and discussed back home.

According to the rules, the disposal rights belong to Chu Huaixu.

The leadership of the Daoist Sect really handled this aspect very well.

Chu Huaixu admired them greatly for this.

Honestly speaking, he felt that not many people in the world could achieve this.

After all, this was hailed as the first Supreme Treasure of the Profound Yellow Realm! The key to opening the door to the Ninth Realm!

After doing all this, Chu Huaixu planned to execute Wen Shiyu on the spot.

It was time to kill her.

But he wouldn’t let Wen Shiyu die too gruesomely.

It’s not that he suddenly felt compassion.

It’s purely because of the secret technique "Outer Body Incarnation".

Just as he was about to commit the act, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind like an electric current!

The Dead Fox suddenly realized that he had been overlooking something.

"No!"

"There’s one more thing that’s not right!"

He suddenly remembered the Black Moon Sect.

He remembered the task he had previously triggered - The Lost Fruit Position!

If his Black Jade Lotus Platform was indeed the Fruit Position the Black Moon Sect Leader was searching for, the Fruit Position indicated in this hidden task, then, logically... the task should have been completed!

However, the task was not triggered.

Even when he deliberately approached Zhong Ming afterwards, this task was not activated.

He thought for a moment and quickly connected some of his previous confusions.

The task was triggered initially because of the lingering aura of a Fruit Position on him.

This aura likely lingered because he frequently interacted with Zhong Ming and continually used Nan Liujing to treat him, meaning that the power of Chu Huaixu’s Nan Liujing was always moving around Zhong Ming.

Of course, there might be other reasons.

After all, it seemed that others who interacted with Zhong Ming did not acquire the aura of the Fruit Position.

But precisely because of this, he successfully triggered the task when encountering followers of the Black Moon Sect.

But why did it only trigger the task but not unlock it?

With a thought, Chu Huaixu considered a terrifying possibility.

"Who said there’s only one Fruit Position in the Profound Yellow Realm?!"

If the system wasn’t faulty, then it’s very likely that the Fruit Position referred to in this task was another one!

In this case, everything made sense.

No wonder many previous matters couldn’t be explained.

He had been stuck in a dead-end line of thinking.

Previously, he racked his brains but couldn’t understand why he had the aura of a Fruit Position on him.

Moreover, subsequently, he didn’t encounter another Fruit Position to unlock the task.

It turns out this Fruit Position wasn’t that Fruit Position!

The answer to all the mysteries was this simple.

With this thought, Chu Huaixu immediately looked coldly at Wen Shiyu, gripping her neck, and asked aloud,

"Is there more than one Fruit Position in the Profound Yellow Realm?"
