System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Roar--

Surrounded by six people and driven to the brink of exhaustion, Zhan Xin experienced firsthand the despair that penetrated to her very bones. Left with no other choice, she gritted her teeth and used the life-saving teleportation talisman her master had given her before she descended the mountain.

In an instant, space and time distorted and shifted, and Zhanxin's figure vanished. However, when she reappeared, before she could even breathe a sigh of relief and savor the terrible despair, she found that the demonic energy around her was even more concentrated.

Moreover, the commotion here, along with the aura emanating from her, has attracted the scattered demons and humans, who bared their fangs and claws and charged madly towards her.

This scene, once witnessed, caused even the proud and arrogant Zhan Xin to feel a wave of despair. She gazed at these people, originally descendants of ancient ancestors, now transformed into demonic monsters, her eyes gradually dimming.

Previously, in order to experience the danger of death firsthand, Zhan Xin endured the siege of six people from Qingyuexuan for several breaths before finally using a talisman to escape at the last moment. But now, her Purple Mansion Lake has dried up, and not a single trace of spiritual energy can be squeezed out.

Although she still had some pills in her storage magic treasure, the process of consuming pills and converting their spiritual energy into her own takes time. But right now, with over a dozen demonic beings almost within reach, she didn't even have that much time.

"I never imagined that I, Zhan Xin, would die here?" Zhan Xin possessed a stunningly beautiful face and a figure that inspired endless fantasies. However, all these qualities that had once made her so proud instantly lost all meaning in the face of these ferocious and terrifying demons.

“From the moment I entered the sect, my master warned me countless times that I must not have any fantasies about the opposite sex before my strength reaches the Nascent Soul Realm…” Zhan Xin’s lips curled into a bitter smile as he murmured, “Master, what you don’t know is that the more you say this, the more curious I become. So I have been working hard to cultivate, hoping to become a Nascent Soul Daoist.”

"It's a pity that I haven't been able to avenge the extermination of my clan, and I've never been able to personally try to modify the Taiqing Jue Earth Scroll, as it's a forbidden technique of the sect."

Roar--

In the brief instant that Zhan Xin muttered to herself, the demons rushing in from all directions had already reached her. The demons were radiating a soaring demonic aura, and Zhan Xin, having exhausted her spiritual energy, could hardly use the demon-repelling talisman of the God-Slaying Guard, as the demonic aura invaded her body without any hindrance.

An uncontrollable surge of madness and murderous intent threatened to devour the reason that had pierced the heart.

However, just as her consciousness began to fade and she was on the verge of death, she vaguely saw a figure in black with white hair, moving around her like a ghost. Then, she felt a lightness in her body, as if she had been lifted up. However, before she could see who it was, she completely lost consciousness.

"Goodness, thank goodness you arrived in time, otherwise you would have become one of the demons."

Chen Xuan had extensive experience dealing with demons; with just a stone knife in hand, he could easily sweep them away. He had just picked up Zhan Xin when he noticed that the woman had already been corrupted by demonic energy, her eyes flickering between reason and madness.

"Fortunately, the infection didn't last long."

The commotion from the battle quickly attracted even more demons and humans. Chen Xuan dared not be careless in the slightest; clutching Zhanxin, he soared into the sky and sped towards the abyss at the entrance of a distant mine.

After releasing his divine sense, Chen Xuan quickly reunited with Wang Kaixuan. Seeing that Chen Xuan had indeed returned with Zhanxin, Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but laugh and tease, "Junior brother, what good fortune! I never expected to meet such a beauty on my first trip down the mountain. It is said that..." As a local native, Wang Kaixuan actually revealed a shameful past of the Heavenly Taiqing Palace from hundreds of years ago.
