This is my first time playing the female lead, what's wrong with the tea and snacks?

outside world.

As Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing helped Su Yu escape, the half-saint in black robes seemed to have already locked onto them.

The semi-saints were far stronger than them, and they caught up with the three in less than a dozen breaths.

He looked down at the three of them with a sinister gaze.

"Battle Celestial Body? Azure Cloud Sword Body? And also Sword Heart Clarity and Innate Dao Body?"

"I never expected that three of the most outstanding geniuses would come together. It was truly an effortless coincidence."

Su Yu felt heavy-hearted; this demigod had really come after them.

Ye Xuan stepped forward first, blocking Su Yu's path.

"Why are you going to such great lengths to capture us? What is your purpose?"

Guan Xiu's goal was to capture the three, not to kill them outright; he was relatively patient.

Even their words carried a persuasive meaning.

"Naturally, it is to make you members of my Holy Church. My Holy Church follows the will of Heaven and the will of the evil god to kill dissidents and purify the world. This is the great trend of Heaven and Earth!"

"Young man, are you interested in joining my Holy Cult?"

"I can guarantee you that joining my Holy Church will give you a future a hundred times brighter than joining your four major sects, and will also allow you to better unleash the potential of your Supreme Physique!"

"To eliminate dissidents and purify the world? Who is evil and who is good?"

Ye Xuan's expression was strange. He was unmoved by Guan Xiu's offer of a position, but felt that the guy had mental problems.

"What if we don't want to join you? Will you, this self-proclaimed righteous force, let us go?"

Guan Xiu smiled faintly and said, "If you don't agree, it's because you don't understand the greatness of the evil god. You'll understand when I take you back to repent."

Ye Xuan's expression turned cold. "You really think you can take us all down?"

A hint of disdain flashed in Guan Xiu's eyes. "You're not even Heavenly Venerables, do you really think the three of you combined are a match for me?"

"Surrender now, don't put up any futile resistance. Since you won't agree, I'll have no choice but to arrest you myself."

As he spoke, the aura of a semi-saint erupted from his body like a tidal wave, pressing down on the three of them without any hesitation.

"This scene looks so familiar!"

"Old man, you think you can eat us up? Aren't you afraid of breaking your own teeth?" A ferocious look flashed across Ye Xuan's face.

His golden divine light erupted, condensing into a barrier that forcefully withstood the terrifying pressure.

"Qingyi, you can leave now. We can take care of things here," Ji Ruqing whispered to Su Yu.

Su Yu's expression changed. "No! How could I possibly abandon you all?"

"He's just a half-saint, we can handle him."

"Go back quickly, I will come to find you later."

As he gave his final instructions, Ji Ruqing approached Ye Xuan, sword in hand, and coldly said:

"Let's cooperate for now and settle our scores later."

Ye Xuan nodded, "Don't worry, everything will be fine once we leave the secret realm safely."

"Out of control."

Guan Xiu's expression was sinister. As a half-saint, even if you are the legendary supreme body, you have not even advanced to the Heavenly Venerable level, yet you speak so arrogantly.

A gray vortex surged through the sky, transforming into a dark, oppressive canopy that pressed down on the two of them.

As the attack commenced, an ancient golden "斗" (dou) character and a sharp cyan sword light rose up together.

The aftershocks spread, and Ye Xuan and his companion were forced back a hundred meters by the black curtain, their footsteps leaving a long trail on the ground.

Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing looked extremely solemn. Although they were both geniuses who could fight enemies a whole realm higher, they were indeed somewhat unsatisfactory when facing a half-saint.

Just as the two were considering whether to continue, a sigh, like a clear stream, was heard, and Su Yu, holding a white crane, slowly walked to them.

"Senior Sister (Qingyi)?"

Su Yu's eyes gleamed, "Don't be reckless. A half-saint level expert, the two of you alone are no match for him. The three of us should work together."

"I......"

"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't want anything to happen, join forces."

Su Yu felt wronged. Dealing with Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing's matter was already difficult enough, and then this incident happened after things had finally calmed down for a while.

It's that Sancai Holy Cult again...

The two fell silent, realizing that now was not the time to show off.

"Whether there are two of you or three of you, you cannot change the outcome."

Guan Xiu pursed his lips slightly; having all three together would save him time.

Immediately, the power of the demigod was made no attempt to conceal itself, and it pressed down directly on the three of them.

Su Yu and the other two exerted all their strength and began to fight Guan Xiu with all their might.

But as time went by, the pressure on Su Yu and the other two increased. They were only at the late stage of the Ascending Emperor Realm, and two at the middle stage of the Ascending Emperor Realm, with a Heavenly Venerable Realm in between. No matter how hard they tried, they could never be their match.

However, with their various supernatural abilities, the three were not easily overwhelmed.

However, they were both injured.

"Damn it, I'm still too weak!"

Upon seeing Su Yu injured, Ye Xuan's golden eyes instantly turned bloodshot.

He's too weak! So weak that he can't even protect his own senior sister.

"My disciple, calm down! Your luck is greatly diminished right now. You must not do anything too outrageous, or the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Sensing Ye Xuan's reckless intentions, Elder Wu earnestly tried to persuade him.

If he had unleashed his full potential in the past, Elder Wu wouldn't have said anything, but now he simply couldn't do it.

"Teacher, I..." Ye Xuan hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

"Sigh~ Let's see how things go first. Don't worry, if necessary, I'll risk my old life to protect you."

Ye Xuan's heart skipped a beat; he felt a pang of regret for his recklessness. "Teacher, please don't! There must be another way. At worst..."

Su Yu looked at the disheveled group, her breathing becoming rapid and labored.

He originally wanted Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing's 'grandfather' to take action, but now it seems that the backlash from the Great Dao last time had a great impact on them.

"Is there really no other way?"

"Should we piece together the Yin-Yang Jade?"

[This is unacceptable, host. The Yin-Yang Jade is a divine treasure. Once this information is leaked, even the Great Emperor will come knocking on your door.]

"......"

This is a divine treasure. It's not a cultivation technique, but a genuine treasure with divine power. However, they cannot control this power yet.

[Now that the Chosen Ones' destinies are damaged, their patriarchs, who concealed the heavenly secrets and withstood the backlash of the Great Dao, also suffered some harm. Therefore, now the host can only rely on himself.]

"so?"

[By fusing with the immortal roots and bones, the host will leap several minor realms, experiencing a tremendous increase in strength. With the help of the immortal roots and bones, the host can then defeat this half-saint.]

"Immortal roots and immortal bones?" Su Yu raised an eyebrow. This was the feedback Ye Xuan gave her when he 'returned to the right path'.

"System, what is the relationship between immortal roots, immortal bones, and immortal spiritual energy?"

[It's not related; they're just immortal powers of the same attribute. Immortal spiritual energy is a special external power that only amplifies strength, while immortal roots and bones are exactly what they sound like—they can transform your entire body.]

It will bring about a comprehensive transformation in you, including your comprehension, cultivation speed, and power amplification. The host will acquire immortal roots and bones, and as long as you don't perish along the way, you can become an immortal with a 100% success rate.

[This can be considered an advanced version of the innate Dao body]
