Chapter 1788: Chapter 1788: Opposition
A toad wanting to eat swan meat. Dreaming would be faster.
Chen Rushi was also a Sword Cultivator. As the two exchanged moves back and forth, he marveled inwardly at their prowess, truly impressive.
How was the Tan Family so exceptional? If his daughter could have such a partner, the future would surely be stable.
Two major levels higher, if without using immortal power, he indeed might not have a chance of winning.
Gu Ersheng still stood outside Qi Wen’s Array, ensuring that when his beloved girl emerged, she would see him first.
He must persuade her to agree. One could say that he knew Qi Wen best, even more so than her parents. How could such close interaction not lead to affection?
It could truly be said that he’d watched her grow up, and this girl met all his expectations for a young woman. It was as if her growth had been for him.
Even if her parents and siblings objected now, he would certainly find a way to get their approval in the future.
Gu Ersheng stared at the Array obsessively, just waiting for his beloved to come out.
On this side, Chen Rushi and Tan Shaoting were evenly matched, of course without using immortal power.
Chen Rushi felt he hadn’t had such a satisfying match in years.
The couple was about to enter the Array. Chen Rushi hesitated to speak. "Su, shall we have a spar too?"
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "Since the senior has this idea, let’s give it a try."
As a Sword Cultivator, watching their match earlier had indeed been quite insightful.
"Senior, please rest first; we are not in a hurry."
Su Yuanyuan wanted an exhilarating match; being in peak condition would be best.
Chen Rushi was certainly willing, which was ideal.
The couple, being called out, also felt a bit embarrassed to enter the Array again, so they simply sat outside.
Su Yuanyuan was still studying the Ancient Array Map. She had found it in a cultivator’s Storage Ring; it should be from ancient times and had some similarities with natural arrays. It was likely recorded by people from ancient times.
Arrays are very brain-intensive; someone like Su Yuanyuan and Pishi can easily get engrossed at that level of Array Cultivation.
Chen Rushi, having rested, was somewhat hesitant to interrupt, seeing how focused she was on researching the Array.
This time, Su Yuanyuan’s comprehension took a full month. When she awoke from the Array, she was still a bit groggy.
"Yuanyuan, the senior is waiting for you," She wanted to spar with him again, yet he said he was waiting for his wife.
Su Yuanyuan laughed and stood up. "Senior, please."
"Don’t you need to rest for a while?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head.
Neither used their Lifebound Sword, as the destruction would be too great, and the children were still cultivating on the side.
Chen Rushi originally paid special attention to Su Yuanyuan. The two quickly engaged in combat, neither underestimating the other; one could say they gave their all and treated it seriously.
Chen Rushi’s heart was in turmoil. It was truly rare for a female cultivator to reach this level.
The two were also evenly matched. Tan Shaoting was confident in his wife, but now he really couldn’t stand Gu Ersheng.
"Hmph, trying to win the girl’s affection with your acts of pity? What a daydream. Once she comes out, I’ll definitely have a talk with her."
Su Yuanyuan also felt that Chen Rushi was truly impressive, possibly even more talented than Gu Ersheng, considering their significant age difference.
Qi Yan emerged from the Array and walked over to his father’s side.
"Very well done." Tan Shaoting was genuinely proud of his son’s excellence.
"Dad, I’m still not there yet."
"You’ve already done very well." Tan Shaoting hadn’t finished speaking when father and son suddenly appeared outside Qi Xuan’s Array.
"Dad, our whole family is advancing again." Just as Qi Yan spoke, immortal power fluctuations began at Qi Hao’s Array.
Each stood outside an Array; this arrangement was just right. Su Yuanyuan feigned an attack and instantly appeared outside Xiao Ya’s Array. If it were only Qi Hao and Qi Xuan, father and son would have been enough; now there was Xiao Ya.
What about Xiao Rue? Su Yuanyuan smiled as she tossed Immortal Crystals inside, still monitoring the changes in Xiao Rue’s Array.
Chen Rushi was also attentive to the Tan Family’s side, knowing his daughter still needed some time before advancing.
Qi Xuan’s absorption of immortal power slowed, and so did Qi Hao’s. Father and son stopped their actions, having advanced successfully, never even considering the possibility of failure.
Qi Hong came out, saw the scene, and laughed. The siblings of this family were indeed formidable.
Zhu Huai’en and Mu Tian’s activities also began.
Chen Rushi inwardly sighed, wondering what was happening, with everyone advancing?
Two years later, Chen Xue Man began to advance, and the others had already reached the Golden Immortal Level.
No matter the outcome, their strength couldn’t be advanced further.
A group of them sat together, feasting on roasted meat, while several women enjoyed spirit rice porridge. They hadn’t discovered Immortal Rice yet. But even so, they were quite satisfied, not having had a proper meal in a long time.
"Mom, did we bring our utensils? Let’s make a meal; I crave spicy seafood."
"Your craving for flavors," Su Yuanyuan said, but she would still satisfy her daughter.
Surprisingly, Xiao Rue and Xiao Ya had never tasted it before. Qi Hao and Qi Xuan had eaten it only rarely, yet this time everyone was quite satisfied.
Zhu Huai’en and Mu Tian felt the same way. In the end, even Chen Rushi couldn’t resist the temptation.
Half a year later, Chen Xue Man exited seclusion. Now everyone was at the Golden Immortal level.
The group deliberated whether to continue moving forward or to leave.
"It’s rumored that in Broken Soul Mountain, there’s a place where one can cross reincarnation and, after entering, another can conceal from all schemes. I want to go there. I don’t have the fearless spirit to send my soul directly; that’s too dangerous. So I’m planning to go through there."
"Dad, did that Tree Demon mention any fierce beasts?"
"Yes. You could say that in the Immortal World, if you commit a major wrong, you can come here. No one will pursue you here.
The fierce beasts exist because of this. But it’s quite harsh here; I once saw the Tree Demon communicating with the Immortal Plants and witnessed the fierce beasts fighting, especially viciously."
"If you want to explore, wait until we reach the Immortal Monarch level and then return.
Tian Yan and the others should have ascended long ago. Who knows if they found what we left for them?" Mu Tian sighed.
"Okay, then let’s leave and return after becoming Immortal Monarchs to try. At that point, dealing with fierce beasts will be no problem."
Su Yuanyuan was very tempted. She and the long-armed ape were watching, curious to see if Gu Ersheng and Chen Rushi would discover the space.
"Master, even the Four Directions Immortal Emperor wouldn’t be able to detect it."
Su Yuanyuan was relieved. The space held that distasteful Qiong Qi, and it was uncomfortable. Since it could obscure any heavenly secrets, they could take care of Qiong Qi there. Now killing it would pose no problem.
