After her senior sister was reborn, she actually became a powerful and arrogant protagonist?!

Sword Lake Blessed Land.

Chu Luobai opened his eyes, his gaze deep and intense. The spiritual energy around him flowed, and the powerful pressure emanating from his every move was far more terrifying than before.

"No wonder all cultivators are vying for these rare and precious materials."

"This one spiritual fruit alone has benefited me so much."

With the blessing of the Xuan Shui Long Yuan Fruit, Chu Luo Bai's meridians and spiritual sea expanded considerably.

The spiritual energy that can be stored in his body is far greater than that of cultivators at the same level.

In battles between cultivators of the same realm, the contest boils down to whose spiritual energy is more abundant.

Now, Chu Luobai is relying on the spiritual power within his body, plus the compressed spiritual liquid in his spiritual sea...

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he's invincible within the same realm.

"Gourd, can't you force another one to grow?"

Chu Luobai looked at the gourd playing with Yunyin under the tree and asked.

This spirit tree is very popular, and even the Cloud Village moved its nest under it.

"Master, this spirit tree needs so much spiritual energy! I've already used up all my reserve spiritual energy for it!"

The gourd pouted in protest.

"If we want to induce birth again, we must replenish the blessed land with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

"At that time, the blessed land will need to be lowered to the earth to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but this method will attract strange phenomena from heaven and earth and will easily expose the location of the blessed land."

Strange celestial phenomena...

If it attracts some reclusive old monster, then we'll be in trouble.

After weighing the options in his mind for a moment, Chu Luobai gave up the idea of ​​stimulating the Xuan Shui Long Yuan Fruit to grow again.

"Thank you for your hard work, Calabash. I need to go to the back mountain to find that mermaid."

"Ouch."

Upon hearing the word "mermaid," Yunyin let out a long, disdainful howl.

Hulu hesitated for a moment. She also disliked the merman, but for the sake of that spiritual spring...

"Master, I want to go too!"

Seeing the gourd's expression of heroic sacrifice, Chu Luobai couldn't help but laugh.

"Even in a blessed land, you can sense the aura of the spiritual spring. If you don't like that mermaid, there's no need to force yourself."

The gourd shook its little head seriously.

"My spiritual senses are much weaker when I stay in this blessed land. I've finally found a clue to the spiritual spring, so I absolutely can't let it slip away!"

Recalling how long the Sword Immortal had been searching, Chu Luobai understood and no longer tried to dissuade him.

Outside the bamboo house, all was quiet.

Jiang Yuzhe, who was originally guarding outside, has also disappeared.

It was late at night, and there weren't many disciples walking around outside.

Chu Luobai simply flew on his sword, heading directly towards the back mountain.

A sword light flashed across the sky, startling Qiu Lin, who was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff absorbing the radiance of the sun and moon.

"Senior sister, have you emerged from seclusion?"

"That direction is... the back mountain?"

What is my senior sister doing on the back mountain at this time?

After pondering for a moment, Qiu Lin resumed his cultivation.

Anyway, my senior sister would never do anything immoral or harmful.

....................................

Qingyun Sword Sect, back mountain.

Outside the cold pool, Lancang bathed in moonlight, striving to absorb the spiritual energy in the air.

Although this is the back mountain, it is still within the territory of the Qingyun Sword Sect, and the spiritual energy here can be described as abundant.

"I should have advanced to the Dao Integration stage by now, damn Chu Luobai."

As spiritual energy entered his body, waves of intense pain surged through the half of his destroyed spiritual sea.

Lancang curled up, unable to hold back his curses.

After Chu Luobai destroyed half of his spiritual sea, his cultivation level plummeted.

Currently, he can only be considered to be in the early stage of Spirit Refinement.

If a real fight breaks out, even against a cultivator who has fully mastered the Spirit Sea Realm, it's not certain that they could win.

"Damn it."

"Who should we say deserves to die?"

A clear, pleasant voice, like soft moonlight, emanated from above him.

But for some reason, it gave him a cold sweat.

He subconsciously looked up, and there was that pretty face that had plunged him into endless nightmares, right above him.

He was so frightened that he instinctively shrank back into the water.

"What's wrong, Lancang? Are you mermaids so ill-mannered? Don't you even know how to greet your master?"

Chu Luobai stood on the shore, the night wind blowing through her sleeves.

Under the moonlight, it was as if a banished immortal had descended to earth.

But to Lan Cang, this scene was more like the arrival of a demon, as if he would be completely wiped out if he said anything that displeased her.

After spending so many days in the icy pool, Lancang still couldn't figure it out.

How exactly did Chu Luobai discover her, and how did she offend him?

Why did he have to torture himself like this?

He obviously didn't do anything.

If it had been any later, I might have been able to form a pact with Mu Yurou...

Such a pure and kind woman is truly worthy of being his contract partner.

But back to reality, Lancang pursed his lips, swayed his fish tail, and subconsciously moved towards the center of the cold pool.

"What are you doing here?"

Chu Luobai raised an eyebrow; this Lancang was indeed a tough nut to crack.

They crushed half of his spiritual sea, yet they still dare to speak to him like that?

"It seems you still don't understand your own identity."

Chu Luobai's lips curled slightly. Lan Cang subconsciously sensed something was wrong. Just as he was about to dive into the water, he found his body stiff and unable to move.

Then, he forcefully plunged his entire body into the water with a powerful surge of spiritual energy.

In an instant, the icy water enveloped him completely.

Merfolk can breathe underwater thanks to the cheeks behind their ears.

Now his body is no longer under his control; he can't even use his cheeks.

For the first time since birth, Lancang has experienced the feeling of drowning.

A feeling of suffocation washed over him, and the fear of death, accompanied by waves of dizziness, swept through his brain.

Just when Lancang thought he was going to die in this icy pool, the restrictions on his body loosened.

He regained control of his body, and the mermaid instinctively swam towards the surface of the water.

It wasn't until it surfaced that it began to breathe heavily.

Chu Luobai stepped forward slowly, squatted down, and used her slender, white fingers to lift Lancang's chin.

His face was slightly pale from suffocation, his lips were tightly pursed, and tears of resentment mingled with the blue tears in his eyes.

Disheveled, and somewhat broken.

The arrogant merman who stood behind Mu Yurou back then.

How could such a miserable day have come?

"Well, do you now recognize your place?"

Lan Cang could sense the suppressed anger in Chu Luobai's words. His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and at this moment he dared not look directly into the other's eyes.

"I understand, Master."

Upon hearing the words "master" tinged with deep resentment, Chu Luobai sneered inwardly, quickly withdrew his right hand, and casually cast a purification spell.

"Tell me, what did Mu Yurou say to you?"
