The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

"I've just checked, and this is indeed my true form. And... it's my body from tens of thousands of years ago!"

"Then here's the question: my true form was clearly destroyed in that great calamity, so how did you obtain it? And you seem to know that this is me! The primordial world isn't too far from here, but it's definitely not something a lower-realm cultivator like you could possibly understand!"

"Ah, it's a long story!" Chen Xuan seemed to recall something, then sighed and prepared to tell what he had planned from the beginning.

"Then let's get straight to the point! I've noticed that you're incredibly slow at getting things done!" Bixiao frowned.

"Actually, I was originally a person from the primordial era. Due to some strange encounters in my early years, I inexplicably came to this small world."

"Although it may be presumptuous, I still have to ask, what kind of extraordinary encounter did you have?"

It is an altar.

"altar?"

"I don't know what I did at the time. I only know that after I walked onto the altar, I lost consciousness and fainted. When I opened my eyes again, I was already in this world."

But the altar didn't disappear; instead, it merged directly into...my body!

"Integrated into the body!???"

"That's right, I think this thing must be some kind of treasure. I can't tell you exactly what it is, but I can tell you its purpose: sacrifice!"

"Just tell me the whole story, so I don't have to keep asking."

"Uh, no problem!"

"After I obtained this altar, I could vaguely see the source of other people's fortune. And this altar needs their fortune. As long as I plunder their fortune through special means, I can make a sacrifice!"

"But what does this have to do with me...?"

"Fairy sister, please wait until I finish speaking!"

“Each time I make a sacrifice, the altar gives me different rewards. Once, I suddenly gained a lot of luck, and I sacrificed it all at once. The altar then summoned you and told me your information. That’s all there is to it.”

"So that's it..."

"But I truly didn't know that you, in your true form, could sense it and even came here personally, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what? Otherwise you, this lecherous bastard, would do something unspeakable to me?" Bixiao said in a cool tone.

"How dare I? Your true form has no cultivation whatsoever, and it's as dull as a wooden puppet, utterly uninteresting. Most importantly, it wasted a huge amount of my luck. If only I had known earlier..."

"Shut up! It's your good fortune that you can summon me. Others would kill for such a blessing, and you think it's a waste? I really gave you that spirit of the secret realm for nothing!"

Enraged, Bi Xiao stepped forward and stomped hard on Chen Xuan's foot, making him wince in pain.

"Ahem, Fairy Sister is right. Doesn't this just make me look short-sighted, only able to see the tiny bit of immediate benefit?"

"By the way, speaking of that spirit of the secret realm, what skills did you gain after absorbing it?"

"Well... I was fortunate enough to acquire a rather extraordinary skill, all thanks to the fairy sister!" Chen Xuan respectfully bowed to Bixiao.

The fairy sister has indeed been very kind to me.

"Alright, alright, you're acting all serious, which seems a bit odd. So, tell me, what skill is it?"

"It's about... devouring and manipulating worlds! Of course, manipulating worlds is limited to my own little world."

"Swallow?"

"It's actually the law of conservation of energy. Simply put, I can directly absorb the matter in a secret realm, a cave, or a small world to infinitely increase the area of ​​my own small world, instead of accumulating in a fixed space."

"That means..."

"That's right. As long as I want, I can absorb the cultivation world outside little by little to expand my small world! However, doing so would take a lot of time, and if I get discovered, I might get beaten up."

Bixiao: "......"

"Everyone else uses normal attack methods, so why does yours become so...unusual?"

"You mean abstract, right? Actually, I thought so at first, but after I found that I could also absorb other people's attacks, I felt relieved."

"??!!!"

"Fairy sister, don't disbelieve me, I, Chen Xuan, never lie! This extremely important trump card is something I'm only telling you!"

"Of course, if I encounter someone of a higher level, let alone absorbing their energy, they would just kill me instantly! Similarly, even if I reach the same cultivation level as you in the future and absorb your attack into my small world, my small world might collapse under the strain. So it only has some use now; its most fundamental ability is to grow infinitely stronger!" Chen Xuan explained carefully.

However, what he didn't say was that once his small world grew to the level of the Primordial World, Bixiao's attacks would be insignificant.

As for even stronger saints? What a joke! Even the Primordial World couldn't withstand a saint's attack. Even if his small world grew into the Primordial World, it still wouldn't be able to absorb a saint's attack!

"I see. But that's still quite impressive. Not everyone can shatter a small world with a single blow. At least... never mind, it's too early to tell you now. It won't do you any good!"

Chen Xuan: "......"

Good grief, you've become a riddle person too!

What skills did that tree give you?

"Huh? Forget about that tree! Never mind!" Chen Xuan waved his hand, trying to brush it off.

"What? You think I can't even tell you what kind of skill it is? You just told me that you only told me about something so important!"

"Fairy sister, do you really want to know?"

"It's not that I really want to know, but the less you tell me, the more curious I become!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan's face darkened.

Then he waved his hand and summoned Lin Rou.

The moment Lin Rou emerged, she paused for a moment, then saw Chen Xuan and immediately pounced on him, grabbing him tightly.

"Damn Chen Xuan, you're not allowed to lock me up with your peach tree again! That stupid penguin keeps chirping 'qbi qbi,' and that silly roe deer keeps asking me all sorts of questions. I'm so annoyed!"

"Uh, yes, yes, I promise I'll never take you back again, is that alright? Get down now, the fairy sister is watching! What about your image as the Mother of Life?!"

"You still remember I am the Mother of Life?! Do I even have any image left in your eyes?!"

Mentioning this made Lin Rou even angrier; she didn't care about any fairy sister!

"Um, Rou'er, why don't you take a look at where we are?"

"No, you're not allowed to call me Rou'er!"

Upon hearing Chen Xuan's words, Lin Rou reacted as if she had been electrocuted, separating from him at lightning speed, her face flushed red.
