After a moment, Cola withdrew his finger, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice:

“Young lady, apart from some external injuries, you still have sixty years of internal strength in your body. This must have been taught to you by someone, but it has been sealed by a poison called ‘Hidden Dove’.”

Chu Xingyao was shocked. She never expected that she possessed such powerful internal energy, yet it was imprisoned by poison.

She asked anxiously, "Is there a solution?"

"Some of the poisonous blood can be released and purified in the spiritual spring. The internal energy will gradually clear the blocked meridians."

That will solve the problem.

As Kele explained, he poured the spiritual spring water into the wooden bucket, intending to purify Chu Xingyao.

"Alright, Cola, since I have internal energy, go to the storeroom and find me a suitable sword."

After speaking, Chu Xingyao leaped into the wooden tub, then resolutely made a cut on each of her wrists, placing her hands outside the tub and letting the poisoned blood flow out.

The blood was thick and emitted a foul odor, making Chu Xingyao feel slightly uncomfortable.

As the poisonous blood was expelled, Chu Xingyao felt a wave of weariness wash over her, as both her body and mind had been greatly depleted.

Before long, she fell into a deep sleep in the wooden tub. Two hours later, Chu Xingyao woke up, feeling refreshed and as if her whole being had been rejuvenated.

She was surprised to find that her skin had become whiter and more translucent, and even the wound on her wrist had disappeared without a trace.

She could also feel a warm current flowing slowly within her body, which greatly surprised Chu Xingyao.

The robot Cola's voice interrupted her thoughts, revealing a hint of composure: "Congratulations, Miss, you have gained sixty years' worth of internal strength."

Chu Xingyao nodded slightly to the cola, but she couldn't hide her excitement.

In the past of China, at an auction, she defied her family's wishes and bought a martial arts manual called "Treading Snow and Chasing Clouds".

From that moment on, she harbored a deep longing for this secret manual. She yearned to one day be like the heroes in martial arts novels, leaping across rooftops and roaming freely in the martial world.

During her last three years at university, she practiced diligently, meticulously refining every movement and every breath.

She kept the mental techniques and incantations deeply imprinted in her mind. However, she never managed to reach that legendary level.

She knew all too well that this was because she lacked the support of internal energy. But now, everything was different.

She possessed profound internal strength accumulated over sixty years, and suddenly felt the power within her surge like a torrent.

A resolute glint flashed in Chu Xingyao's eyes. She knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and she had to seize it firmly.

"Therefore, I will certainly work even harder and not let this effort go to waste."

"Only by strengthening myself can I lend Jun Jiuxiao a hand and not become a burden to him. Jun Jiuxiao, wait for me. I will protect you in this world."

She adjusted the time scale to 15 times, so that for every day that passed outside, she could practice for 15 days in the space.

She instructed the robot Cola to inform her immediately if anyone visited, so as to ensure that she would not miss any important matters.

Chu Xingyao moved to the open space next to the spiritual spring. The air here was fresh and the environment was quiet, making it an excellent place to practice lightness skills.

She closed her eyes tightly, recalled the mental techniques and mantras of "Chasing Clouds in the Snow," and then slowly began to practice.

She began to regulate her breathing, each breath closely coordinated with her movements. She could feel her internal energy flowing smoothly within her body, and with the rhythm of her breathing, her figure became increasingly light.

After nine breaths, she alternated between left and right postures and continued practicing. As her practice deepened, Chu Xingyao felt as if she could truly walk on snow and chase clouds.

As time went by, Chu Xingyao's lightness skill became more and more exquisite. She could clearly feel that her steps were becoming lighter and lighter, and each jump was higher and farther.

She began to try more complex movements, imitating Jun Jiuxiao's silent movements. Her figure appeared and disappeared in the open space, just like a ghost.

“Miss, your talent is truly extraordinary; it cannot be achieved through mere hard work alone.”

There was a hint of admiration in Cola's voice.

Chu Xingyao's expression remained calm and undisturbed, because she had thoroughly mastered this set of light-body skills from her previous life. Every movement and every breath was like an instinct imprinted deep in her soul.

“Miss, your internal energy is truly unique. It seems to have an extremely high degree of compatibility with your body. This may be the key to your ability to quickly comprehend ‘Treading Snow and Chasing Clouds’.”

After seven days of cultivation within the spatial realm, Chu Xingyao had fully mastered the "Treading Snow and Chasing Clouds" technique, just as she had in her previous life.

“Miss, I have already scanned it with the detector. There are many martial arts manuals in the storeroom, but only this one sword.”

Cola carried a wooden box and walked slowly, talking as he went.

Chu Xingyao lived and ate in the space for the past seven days. In any case, she had stored a lot of food in the space in case she was hungry during the mission. After eating her fill, she practiced diligently.

Seeing Cola enter, Chu Xingyao quickly finished the last hamburger and approached lightly.

Reaching out and gently touching the surface of the wooden box, one can feel the vicissitudes of time and the warmth of the wood.

She carefully opened the wooden box, and a faint woody scent mingled with the cold metallic aroma, filling the air.

Chu Xingyao held her breath and gently lifted the silk cloth, revealing the sword's true form. The sword's blade was half pitch black and deep, like midnight, and half bright and clear, like the full moon.

Her gaze was fixed on the sheet of Xuan paper, the ancient characters written with vigorous and powerful strokes. It read:

"This sword is named 'Reincarnation'. It was created by a reclusive master swordsmith on the night of the full moon. He took meteorite iron from outer space and black stone from the deep sea, and after eighty-one days of tempering, it was finally born amidst thunder and lightning."

There is another sword manual called "Flying Star Sword Technique," which has two ultimate moves: Flying Star Piercing Clouds and Galaxy Pouring Backwards.

[I] Flying Star Piercing Clouds: The sword moves with the speed of a shooting star, possessing immense penetrating power, as if a shooting star were piercing through thick clouds. This sword technique excels at swift and decisive battles, aiming for a single, fatal strike, representing the ultimate expression of concentrating all strength on a single point.

[II] The Milky Way Pours Down: When the sword technique is executed, it is like the Milky Way pouring down, with starlight twinkling endlessly. The sword path is wide, combining offense and defense, and is especially suitable for night combat, taking advantage of the cover of night and stars to appear and disappear unpredictably.

May the next person who is destined to receive it cherish it.
