My Xiuxian painting style is not right

Chapter 9 The Secret Realm Opens

Chen Yu pointed the smoking muzzle downward and blew on it. Fatty Wang was still trembling beside him, his face pale. He pointed at the body of the man in black on the ground, his voice trembling: "Chen... Chen Yu, you... you killed someone!"

Chen Yu glanced at him and said calmly, "Why are you panicking? He wanted to kill me anyway."

He bent down, fumbled around the man in black, and pulled out a black cloth bag.

The cloth bag contained several bottles of pills, some change, and a black token.

Chen Yu picked up the token and looked at it. There was a word "shadow" engraved on it.

"The token of the Shadow Pavilion." Chen Yu threw the token into his rag bag and collected the pills and silver.

"Let's go, go back."

Fatty Wang was still pale and his calves were still trembling, but he didn't dare say anything and just followed Chen Yu obediently.

On the way back, Fatty Wang remained silent, looking back from time to time, as if he was afraid that the man in black would suddenly come back to life and catch up with him.

Chen Yu looked relaxed, humming an unknown tune, holding the bottle of medicine seized from the man in black in his hand, and looking at it in the sunlight from time to time.

"This pill...isn't it poisonous?" Fatty Wang finally couldn't help but ask.

Chen Yu turned his head and glanced at him: "Why, you want to try it?"

Fatty Wang quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no, I... I dare not."

Chen Yu smiled, opened the bottle, poured out a pill and put it in his mouth.

The pill melted in his mouth, and a warm current instantly flowed through his body. Chen Yu felt comfortable all over, and his internal Qi became active.

"Well, the effect is good." Chen Yu nodded with satisfaction, "This is a good thing, it should be able to help me break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage."

Hearing the words "foundation building stage", Fatty Wang's eyes lit up: "Really?

Then, aren't you going to become a true immortal cultivator?"

Chen Yu smiled but said nothing. He quickened his pace, wanting only to return to the cabin and practice some hard training.

After returning to the cabin, Chen Yu sent Fatty Wang to chop firewood, while he sat cross-legged on the bed and began to refine the medicinal power of the elixir.

While chopping wood, Fatty Wang secretly looked at Chen Yu with envy in his eyes.

The sun was shining brightly outside, shining through the window onto Chen Yu, giving him a golden glow.

Chen Yu closed his eyes and breathed evenly. The true energy in his body flowed through his meridians like a rushing river.

As time went by, the true energy in Chen Yu's body became stronger and stronger, and a cyclone gradually formed in his dantian.

The cyclone spun faster and faster, eventually forming a qi ball the size of an egg.

"Crack!"

With a slight sound, Chen Yu felt something inside his body break.

He knew this was a sign of a breakthrough.

He continued to practice his skills, guiding his true energy to continuously impact the barriers of his meridians.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yu suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes gleaming with brilliance.

"Foundation Building Stage!" Chen Yu clenched his fists, feeling the power filling his body, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He finally broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage!

Chen Yu stood up and stretched his muscles, making crackling sounds.

He felt his body was full of strength, as if he could smash a huge rock with one punch.

He walked to the window, opened it, and took a deep breath of fresh air.

"The Foundation Establishment Stage is just the beginning!" Chen Yu thought to himself, "One day, I will stand at the pinnacle of this world!"

At this time, Fatty Wang finished chopping wood and walked in. Seeing Chen Yu standing by the window, he asked, "Chen Yu, you... you broke through?"

Chen Yu nodded: "Yes, a breakthrough."

Fatty Wang said excitedly, "Great! Congratulations, Chen Yu!"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Thank you for helping me protect the law."

"No, no, it's my duty, it's my duty." Fatty Wang rubbed his hands and laughed.

His eyes rolled and he asked again, "Chen Yu, you are already a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage. Can you teach me some cultivation techniques?"

Chen Yu glanced at Fatty Wang and said, "Want to learn how to cultivate immortality? It's not impossible, but..."

He paused deliberately to whet Fatty Wang's appetite.

"But what?" Fatty Wang asked quickly.

"But you have to do something for me first." Chen Yu said.

"What's the matter?" asked Fatty Wang.

"Go get me something to eat, I'm hungry." Chen Yu said.

Fatty Wang was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said quickly, "Okay, I'll go right away!"

He turned around and ran out of the cabin to prepare food for Chen Yu.

Chen Yu looked at Fatty Wang's departing back, a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Chen Yu sat cross-legged on the bed, feeling the true energy filling his body, his heart filled with joy.

The success of building the foundation means that he has officially entered the ranks of immortal cultivators and has the power to protect himself in this world full of wonders.

He took out a small mirror from his rag bag and looked at himself. He was still thin, pale, and slightly malnourished.

Chen Yu curled his lips. This body was in such bad condition that he had to find a way to improve it.

At this time, Fatty Wang came in with a bowl of steaming wild vegetable porridge and handed it to Chen Yu like a treasure: "Chen Yu, try it, I made this wild vegetable porridge especially for you, it's delicious!"

Chen Yu took the wild vegetable porridge, smelled it, and a faint fragrance came to his nose.

He took a sip and found it tasted really good, much better than the porridge made by Fatty Wang before.

"Not bad, there has been progress." Chen Yu nodded and praised.

After hearing this, Fatty Wang's face lit up with a smile that was sweeter than honey: "Hehe, as long as you like it, as long as you like it."

While drinking porridge, Chen Yu asked, "Fatty Wang, do you know the ancient secret realm?"

Fatty Wang scratched his head. "Ancient secret realm? I've heard of it. I heard there are many treasures and powerful monsters in it. It's very dangerous."

Chen Yu put down the bowl and said, "I heard that only cultivators above the Foundation Establishment stage can enter the ancient secret realm, and they need a special token."

Fatty Wang's eyes lit up: "Chen Yu, you... you don't want to go to the ancient secret realm, do you?"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Why, are you scared?"

Fatty Wang quickly waved his hands: "No... I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid!

I’m just a little worried…”

Chen Yu patted Fatty Wang on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I'm here, what are you afraid of?"

Fatty Wang chuckled: "That's right, with you here, Chen Yu, I'm not afraid of anything!"

Chen Yu stood up, walked to the window, looked at the mountains in the distance, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "Ancient Secret Realm, I must go and see it!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?" Chen Yu asked.

"It's me, Lin Qingxue." A cold voice came from outside the door.

Chen Yu opened the door and saw Lin Qingxue standing outside the door in white clothes, looking graceful and elegant.

"Fairy Lin, why are you here?" Chen Yu asked.

Lin Qingxue glanced at Chen Yu, then at Fatty Wang in the room, and said, "I have something to tell you."

Chen Yu glanced at Fatty Wang and said, "Fatty Wang, please go out for a while."

Fatty Wang walked out tactfully and closed the door.

"Fairy Lin, is there anything wrong?" Chen Yu asked.

Lin Qingxue walked up to Chen Yu and said, "I heard that you have broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage."

Chen Yu nodded: "It was just luck."

Lin Qingxue took out a jade pendant from her waist and handed it to Chen Yu: "This is a token for entering the ancient secret realm. Take it."

Chen Yu took the jade pendant, which felt warm and radiated a faint spiritual aura.

He glanced at Lin Qingxue and asked, "Fairy Lin, why are you helping me?"

Lin Qingxue did not directly answer Chen Yu's question, but said: "You have a secret, a big secret."

Chen Yu was shocked. Lin Qingxue actually knew his identity as a time traveler?

Lin Qingxue continued, "Your secret is related to the fate of the entire cultivation world."

Chen Yu was silent. He didn't know how much Lin Qingxue knew, nor did he know what her purpose was.

Lin Qingxue looked at Chen Yu and said, "The ancient secret realm may be able to unlock the secrets of you."

Chen Yu took a deep breath and said, "I understand. Thank you, Fairy Lin."

Lin Qingxue nodded, turned and left the cabin.

Chen Yu watched Lin Qingxue's departing figure and fell into deep thought. Lin Qingxue's words made him feel uneasy.

What is the secret of him?

He clenched the jade pendant in his hand and thought to himself, "I must go to the ancient secret realm!"

The next morning, Chen Yu and Fatty Wang packed their bags and prepared to head to the ancient secret realm.

Before they left, Liu Ruyan suddenly appeared at the door of the cabin.

She was dressed in red, looking charming and attractive, holding a red folding fan in her hand, gently waving it.

"Chen Yu, I heard that you are going to the ancient secret realm, so take me with you." Liu Ruyan said with a smile.

Chen Yu looked at Liu Ruyan, feeling a little hesitant. He didn't know what Liu Ruyan's purpose was, nor did he know if she would pose a threat to them.

Liu Ruyan seemed to see Chen Yu's concerns and said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you.

I just want to go to the ancient secret realm and see if I can find some treasures there."

Chen Yu thought about it and finally agreed to Liu Ruyan's request.

The three of them left the cabin together and headed towards the ancient secret realm.

On the way, Liu Ruyan suddenly said to Chen Yu: "Chen Yu, do you know?

I’m not actually human.”

Chen Yu was stunned, looked at Liu Ruyan, and asked, "You are not human?

Then you are…”

Liu Ruyan smiled slightly and said, "I am from the demon clan."

Chen Yu was shocked. He didn't expect that Liu Ruyan was a demon.

Liu Ruyan continued, "My family has guarded the ancient secret realm for generations, and I know many of its secrets."

Chen Yu looked at Liu Ruyan, a glint in his eyes. He knew that Liu Ruyan's appearance might help him unravel the secrets of his body.
