Chapter 25 Seven Days of Pain

Breaking the Nascent Soul.

Lu Ye successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage and immediately returned to Bai Lan Peak of the Great Dao Sect, entering seclusion.

He seemed to be fine.

But in reality...

Lu Ye grinned, the pain was excruciating yet strangely satisfying.

However, under normal circumstances, the sensory amplification brought by the Primordial Morning Mist was not as intense as the pain Lu Ye had endured from the Chaos Venom.

It was bearable.

He wouldn't die.

Lu Ye sat cross-legged alone, his muscles trembling and contorting.

Chu Ling sat at Lu Ye's door, guarding him, though it was essentially useless.

Yue Hongling woke up.

At first, she was disoriented, then with a start, she immediately sat up from the bed.

"Master, how is my senior brother?" Yue Hongling asked urgently.

Bai Qiulan's voice was gentle, "Hong Ling, don't worry too much, he's fine now."

"Has it been seven days?"

"Only a little over a day has passed, not seven days yet."

"That can't be right!"

Yue Hongling's face turned pale.

"The Primordial Morning Mist lasts for at least seven days before it dissipates, meaning the sensory amplification will persist for a full seven days."

Sun Ruowei quietly stepped back, straining her ears to listen.

"It lasts for seven days. It's true that he experienced pain when he shattered his Golden Core to form the Nascent Soul, but now that he has successfully broken through, there should be no pain. What's the problem with it lasting seven days?" Bai Qiulan asked, puzzled.

"The Primordial Morning Mist is extremely potent. Even if there is no actual pain, the area where it exists can still feel intense pain. A single breath feels like molten lava pouring down your throat, a single cultivation session feels like being pierced by thousands of needles, and a gentle breeze feels like having your skin peeled off."

"Master, think about it, there are only a few poisons in the world that can affect senior brother. How could it be so simple?"

Bai Qiulan fell silent.

Indeed, there were very few things that could affect Lu Ye, who was at the Celestial Lord realm.

"But your senior brother really seems calm and composed," Bai Qiulan said.

Yue Hongling frowned deeply.

Why was this the case?

"Master, does my senior brother often endure pain?" Yue Hongling asked.

"How could that be? He's so strong, who could possibly cause him pain?"

Bai Qiulan's first thought was that it was impossible.

Lu Ye had been invincible throughout his life, battling heaven and earth, with countless geniuses and strongmen kneeling at his feet.

Even the most intense battles would not bring Lu Ye to the point of extreme pain.

"Why on earth can he endure it then?" Yue Hongling said, somewhat distraught.

"Isn't this a good thing? Since he can endure such pain, it's a good thing!"

At the very least, it wasn't Yue Hongling who killed Lu Ye.

She now saw clearly that Yue Hongling had probably long been deeply in love with Lu Ye.

Before her rebirth, she had been obsessed with Feng Wuxie, but after her rebirth, she hardly mentioned Feng Wuxie at all, her heart and eyes filled only with Lu Ye.

Bai Qiulan didn't dare to imagine how much pain Yue Hongling would be in if Lu Ye really died because of her.

"Is senior brother really okay?"

"He's really okay!"

Yue Hongling hurriedly stood up, "No, I need to go and guard senior brother!"

Yue Hongling ran to Lu Ye's door, and Chu Ling glanced up, then Yue Hongling sat down beside Chu Ling.

Chu Ling???

"I'll guard senior brother with you."

Chu Ling...

Bai Qiulan looked at these two silly girls and couldn't help but shake her head helplessly.

It's over, Yue Hongling is done for.

Sun Ruowei's eyes gleamed as she stared at the back of Bai Qiulan's head. What had she just heard?

There are only a few poisons that can affect Lu Ye?

Lu Ye is so strong, who could bring him pain?

Wait, isn't Lu Ye just at the InfantBreaking Realm? From what you two are saying, Lu Ye is at least at the Unity Dao Realm?

What is going on?

Bai Qiulan felt the intense gaze on the back of her head and couldn't help but rub her temples.

Her figure instantly disappeared.

"Hey, don't run!"

Sun Ruowei's figure also vanished.

Clearly, she couldn't catch up with Bai Qiulan.

Bai Qiulan circled around, shook off Sun Ruowei, and arrived at a certain location.

She didn't even have a strong consciousness and somehow ended up at the place where Lu Ye usually liked to cultivate.

The green mountains were like ink, and the trees were lush.

Bai Qiulan didn't mind sitting on the ground, her white long dress blooming.

She quietly gazed at this world.

In her mind, Yue Hongling's question kept echoing.

"Master, does my senior brother often endure pain?"

Her answer was impossible.

But...

Now Bai Qiulan suddenly realized.

Lu Ye had indeed endured pain. Before he obtained the "Taiyin Transformation Sutra," Lu Ye could only help her transfer the pain through the art of yin and yang.

To whom was the pain transferred?

Obviously.

Sometimes, when Lu Ye couldn't bear the pain, he would become extremely violent, and she couldn't handle it at all.

She was both resistant, heartbroken, and moved.

During that time, Lu Ye

had indeed endured a lot of pain because he would always take away the Chaos Venom, so she really didn't know what kind of pain the Chaos Venom could inflict.

Could it be...

No, if it was truly painful, why would Lu Ye keep coming back for more?

He always came to her voluntarily.

It couldn't be because of the Chaos Venom.

The more Bai Qiulan thought about it, the more anxious she became. She decided to stop thinking and forced herself to calm down, feeling the mountain breeze, and began to cultivate.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Not only did Lu Ye withstand the Primordial Morning Mist, but his Nascent Soul now bore a trace of mist.

Yes, he had refined the Primordial Morning Mist into his Nascent Soul. Although the amount was small, one could imagine what it would do to an opponent.

Good, he had gained an additional method in the early stages.

In the later stages, he could go to the Primordial Mist Heaven and directly absorb it, gaining another method.

Without personally experiencing it, Lu Ye really didn't know the Primordial Morning Mist was so effective.

He lightly made a small cut on his arm, and the pain nearly caused his soul to collapse.

After seven days, he felt as if he had been reborn.

He glanced at his Nascent Soul.

It was a tiny version of himself, so vivid and lifelike, and considering its size, it was evident that this was a Sacred Infant.

A Sacred Giant Infant!

Cultivating and cultivating, he had already reached the InfantBreaking Realm. If he continued, he could leave Yue Hongling and Chu Ling behind, and they would no longer be on the same level. He wanted to see if they would despair.

Speaking of which, Lu Ye had cultivated to this level in one go without any real trials.

The key was, there was nothing to trial!

He lacked neither mental state nor the Great Dao. As for treasures, as long as they were unclaimed, he could rush over in the morning and return with them by the afternoon.

He could even help the original owner improve their formation.

What trials could there be in such a situation?

Suddenly, Lu Ye felt a slight tremor.

He was stunned, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his face.

Respected Master, has your Chaos Venom started to appear again?

It's true that the "Taiyin Transformation Scripture" can dissolve the Chaos Venom, but the dissolved Chaos Taiyin needs a place to be released.

Otherwise, if it stays in your body, dissolving here and condensing there, what effect would it have?
