Chapter 33: New Skill—Health Lock

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chen Yueru was over 17 years old and not yet 18 years old. However, both her body and mind were very mature.

Just like at this moment, she said it casually, but when Song Fan heard it, he felt like he had suffered 10,000 critical hits.

He replied, “Look, what are you saying? You’re a girl. You’re beautiful and have a good figure. Can’t you be more reserved when you speak? Be more reserved.”

When Chen Yueru heard this, she covered her face and smiled. “What’s wrong? You’re a chauvinist, yet you’re injured?”

Seeing Song Fan suffer, she was quite proud. She liked the way Song Fan was controlled and helpless.

“I’ll be angered to death by you sooner or later.” Song Fan was helpless.

In the past, he had the absolute initiative. Now, he was in a passive position.

He didn’t like this feeling, but he couldn’t stop Chen Yueru from being skilled.

Later, Chen Yueru did not joke with him. Instead, she said, “The academy will hold a training event at the end of the month. As a student of the medical department, I will go out with the team. At that time, be careful of the Ghost Group’s assassins. I don’t want to come back to collect your corpse.”

She also knew that Song Fan had been targeted by Ghost Group, so she specially reminded him to be careful.

Originally, according to the plan, Song Fan should also participate in the training activities. However, considering his safety, he would not go.

Training was important, but his life was more important. The academy was the safest. There was no need to go out and die.

He also reminded Chen Yueru, “There are many demon beasts outside. Your combat strength is weak, so you have to pay more attention to your safety. When the time comes, I’ll lend Er Ha to you and let it and the little female wolf protect you.”

Speaking of Er Ha and the little female wolf, the two demon beasts had already entered the small forest.

“That silly dog, it’s better for it to stay and protect you.” Chen Yueru shook her head.

At that moment, Song Fan’s chauvinism kicked in. “Shut up, woman. I have the final say in this matter. Don’t bargain with me.”

When Chen Yueru heard this, she was stunned for a moment before she smiled brightly. “I like your occasionally domineering appearance. Alright, I’ll listen to you. When the time comes, let that silly dog go with us.”

“That’s more like it.” Song Fan nodded proudly. It wasn’t easy for him to be tough in front of Chen Yueru, so he felt very proud.

Suddenly, he thought of Zhou Xuan and said, “I wonder if Little Xuan can break through to Silver Five-Star this month. If he can’t, it’ll be very difficult for him to stay. When I was in Yang City, he took good care of me. I really don’t want to be separated from him like this.”

Even if he was doing odd jobs in the Demon Subduing Pagoda, there would be an assessment every month. Especially in the first three months, the assessment was even stricter.

The most important test was still the improvement of one’s cultivation. Only by improving every month could one pass the test.

When Chen Yueru heard this, she said, “A friend in need is a friend indeed. You’ve experienced the beast tide in Yang City together and narrowly escaped death. You should help each other. I think you can buy some pills or something to help him.”

She had heard of Song Fan and Zhou Xuan’s experiences and deeply felt that it was not easy for the two of them to survive the beast tide at that time. She also supported Song Fan to help Zhou Xuan.

“I think so too.” Song Fan nodded.

He was worried that it would be difficult for Zhou Xuan to break through to the Silver Five-Star level. Little did he know that Zhou Xuan had long broken through to the Gold One-Star level, but he had been hiding it.

After a day and night of cultivation, with the Three Worlds Heavenly Technique, Zhou Xuan’s cultivation even broke through again and reached Gold Two-Star.

Such speed of improvement could only be described as godly speed.

As a new day came, he signed-in on an ordinary tree demon and obtained two Dao Fruits.

What was Dao Fruit? It was a spiritual fruit that could shape a Dao Body. It was extremely rare.

At that moment, he exclaimed that it didn’t make sense! However, the more unscientific it was, the more he liked it.

Then, he consumed the first Dao Fruit without hesitation. With the first Dao Fruit, he cultivated his body into a Dao Body and cultivated his current body.

What was a Dao Body? It was a powerful physique that was close to Dao techniques. After cultivating a Dao Body, one could easily comprehend Dao techniques.

The Dao Body was also divided into Acquired Dao Body, Innate Dao Body, Chaos Dao Body, and Primordial Dao Body.

The current body that he had cultivated belonged to the lowest level of Acquired Dao Body. However, compared to an ordinary physique, it was already quite extraordinary.

Moreover, the Acquired Dao Body could evolve continuously after cultivation. It could even evolve into an Innate Dao Body or a Chaos Dao Body.

Creating a Dao Body made it easier to comprehend Dao techniques. The starry sky was so vast that it was said to have 3,600 Dao techniques. Among them were the Laws of the Sword Dao, the Laws of the Thunder Dao, the Laws of Space, the Laws of Time, the Laws of the Heavenly Dao, the Laws of the Great Dao, and so on.

The current Zhou Xuan was still the same Zhou Xuan, but not the same Zhou Xuan.

He had created his current body and cultivated his Dao Body. He had vaguely sensed something that he had not been able to sense before.

This was a very mysterious thing. It was indescribable, but it really existed.

“Those things that I can sense but can’t touch are probably the power of laws,” he muttered in his heart.

Now that he had just formed his Dao Body, there was still a long way to go before he could comprehend the Dao. As the saying went, when the conditions were right, everything would be done.

Therefore, he was not in a hurry to sense those things that he could not touch.

Then, he used the second Dao Fruit and used the Three Worlds Heavenly Technique to successfully create a second body, which was his previous life’s body.

When he formed his second Dao Body, his cultivation level improved from Gold Two-Star to Gold Three-Star.

The second Dao Body, which represented his previous life, had the same cultivation level as his current life. They were both Gold Three-Stars.

His current body was closely connected to his previous life. As long as one of them improved, the other would also improve. Moreover, they could fuse together.

At the same time, they were independent of each other. They could cultivate and comprehend their own Daos.

As long as one of them was not destroyed and the other was destroyed, Zhou Xuan would have no image left.

Unless the two Dao Bodies were destroyed together, he would not die.

The main body was the current body, and it was also the target of Zhou Xuan’s focus.

He looked at his previous incarnation and said, “From now on, you’re both me and not completely me. I’ll develop wretchedly in the Demon Subduing Pagoda. You’ll be Chu Xunhuan and help me roam the martial world.”

As a result, his appearance in his previous life changed. He now looked like Chu Xunhuan, who was thirty years old.

Just like Zhou Xuan, Chu Xunhuan was able to execute all the cultivation techniques that he had learned before, and he possessed the same ability.

The only difference was that the system was with the current body. Only the current body could use the system.

“It’s a pity that I only have two Dao Fruits and I can only create two Dao Bodies. It seems that I can only find a Dao Fruit in the future to create the third Dao Body.”

Although it was a pity, molding two Dao Fruits was equivalent to having two lives. It was already a supreme gain.

Zhou Xuan continued to sign-in while Chu Xunhuan cultivated.

When night fell, Zhou Xuan planned to send Chu Xunhuan out to explore the outside world. Two Dao bodies developing together was a double improvement, and others could only be envious.

He came to room 19 and fought a Gold Three-Star cockroach demon. With his Gold Three-Star cultivation and the Invincible Vajra Body Technique, he tortured the cockroach demon hundreds of times.

However, as with cockroaches, it did not die so easily.

“It’s indeed worthy of its name,” he exclaimed. “It’s as if it can lock blood.”

Then, he touched the cockroach demon and triggered the Unscientific Sign-In System. “Ding! Target discovered. Do you want to sign-in?”

“Sign in.”

“Ding… Sign-in successful. You have received a new skill—Health Lock!”
