Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds-Chapter 758 - 384, Lady Hua’s Defection_2

Su Lian Immortal's tone became gentler.

"Was it five days ago, or… today…" Xu Xing's brows slightly furrowed as he asked.

He had been in the Jade Void Minor World for five days. If Lady Hua had been redeemed before then, it would not be an easy task for him to find her again with his means. Of course, he was not unprepared for this eventuality, but it would inevitably be more troublesome to search for her again.

"It was five days ago," Su Lian Immortal said faintly.

"Thank you, Immortal." Upon hearing this response, Xu Xing nodded, cupped his fists in a bow, and then quickly walked away.

When I left Sea Monkey Island, I caught a glimpse of Lady Hua and obtained this drop of Essence Blood from her to sense her whereabouts.

I hope she hasn't gone far.

On an island outside Jade Void Island, Xu Xing stood on a reef at the shore and took out a jade bottle from his Storage Bag.

This time, the deal to redeem Lady Hua was deliberately orchestrated by him as a transaction between them. Once he redeemed Lady Hua, she must return the blueprint of the "Falling Soul Bell" as remuneration. Of course, the so-called "Falling Soul Bell" blueprint was merely a smokescreen he released, intentionally luring Lady Hua to take the bait. His real goal was the Spatial Channel between the Purple Yin Realm and the Chiming World.

A moment later, Xu Xing used the same method he had employed to find Shentu Yuan to set up a sensing array method on the shore, using the drop of Essence Blood to remotely sense Lady Hua's whereabouts.

"Immortal Jade Island?" Xu Xing took out the sea map, compared it to the direction the Essence Blood indicated, and roughly made a judgment.

Daring to deceive me, but fortunately, I was prepared... Xu Xing's brows raised slightly.

Immortal Jade Island was about a hundred and eight thousand miles from the meeting place he and Lady Hua had agreed upon, basically one in the south and the other in the north. If he went to Sumeru Island, he would very likely lose his last chance to find Lady Hua. However, luckily, he had been wary of Lady Hua from the beginning and did not readily believe her words.

「Several hours later.」

Xu Xing arrived at Immortal Jade Island, which was tens of thousands of miles away. He stopped outside the island and continued to use the sensing array method to perceive Lady Hua's exact location. The position of Lady Hua sensed by the array method from tens of thousands of miles away was too vague.

It's here... Xu Xing's eyes flickered a few times. With a wave of his sleeve, he retrieved the array banner and instantly arrived at a nameless island a dozen miles away.

Array techniques have been set up...

Showing off in front of the real master. Xu Xing sneered, took out the array disk he carried with him, and began to dismantle the several sets of array techniques established on the island.

From these sets of array techniques, he could see that Lady Hua was deliberately hiding from him. However, Lady Hua was not Shentu Yuan; she was just a mere Nascent Soul Cultivator and could hardly predict what methods a Primordial Spirit Cultivator would employ.

Realm suppression is deadly!

At the same time, in the cave beneath the nameless island.

Someone touched the array technique? In the cultivation room, the seated Lady Hua first looked surprised, then her expression changed slightly. Through the array technique, she could see who was forcibly breaking the Island Protection Formation.

Chang Kun managed to track me all the way here with just a drop of Essence Blood... I underestimated him. Lady Hua's face darkened.

After being ransomed by Wen Renlan, she had been fleeing day and night for these past few days, trying to escape Xu Xing's sensing range. Logically, a tracking secret technique should not work from tens of thousands of miles away.

Could it be a tracking array technique? A rank five tracking array technique? Lady Hua thought of this possibility and bitterly regretted not using Blood Escape to flee. Using Blood Escape would greatly weaken her, but it would be better than being found by Xu Xing.

Chang Kun is too powerful for me to defeat. All he wants is the method to refine the Falling Soul Bell, so I'll just give it to him... Clinging to this sliver of hope, Lady Hua took out the jade slip for refining the Falling Soul Bell from her Storage Bag and hurried to the ground level.

"Fellow Daoist Chang, Fellow Daoist Chang, please don't forcibly break the array technique any longer..." Lady Hua revealed her true body on the small island and transmitted her voice to Xu Xing, who was floating in the air. "I didn't go to Sumeru Island. I encountered a powerful enemy on the way and had no choice but to rest here temporarily to hide from them." Lady Hua casually made up an excuse.

"Hiding from a powerful enemy?" Xu Xing's eyes flashed a few times. "Fellow Daoist Hua, your excuses are plentiful. If it weren't for my modest means, I might have never seen you again," he said sarcastically.

Lady Hua gave an awkward smile. "Fellow Daoist Chang is now a Primordial Spirit Sage Monarch, while my cultivation is shallow..." She sobbed a few times.

"Where is the method to refine the Falling Soul Bell?" Xu Xing snorted coldly, interrupting Lady Hua's performance, and asked in a stern voice.

"Here it is." Upon hearing Xu Xing's words, Lady Hua felt a wave of relief. She took out a prepared jade slip from her sleeve and used her Magic Power to send it past the outside of the array technique.

However, something unexpected happened. As soon as the jade slip left the array technique, Xu Xing, like a phantom, took advantage of this gap and directly entered the Island Protection Formation.

This scene startled Lady Hua.

"I already have the method to refine the Falling Soul Bell." Xu Xing looked down at Lady Hua before him, smiling slightly. "What's the deal with the Spatial Channel in the Broken Dragon Platform?"

He waved his sleeve robe, and his hand shot out, grabbing Lady Hua's snow-white neck, imprisoning her cultivation, and slowly lifting her.

"The rumors on Demon Island say that you killed Elder Jiu Ling. It's said that the most poisonous heart belongs to a woman. Lady Hua, open your Sea of Consciousness and let me search your soul once. If this is false, I'll let you go and keep my word," Xu Xing said, his expression indifferent.

Although his relationship with Elder Jiu Ling was not close, they were considered good friends. If Lady Hua had killed Elder Jiu Ling, and he had the strength to avenge him, he would not shirk the responsibility.

Previously, when Lady Hua was in Yunu Pavilion, although merely a servant, she was under Yunu Pavilion's protection, making it difficult for him to act. But today was different. Lady Hua had left Yunu Pavilion and become a freelance cultivator with no backing.

"Fellow Daoist Chang, I am willing to have a prohibition planted in my Sea of Consciousness and be your slave..."

"Just please don't search my soul." Upon hearing the words "Soul Searching," Lady Hua was immediately scared witless, her pretty face pale and bloodless.

She never expected that Xu Xing had "rescued" her not for the method of refining the Falling Soul Bell, but for the Spatial Channel between the two realms and to avenge Elder Jiu Ling. Who could have thought that a cultivator who had already ascended to the Upper Realm would still be fixated on the Spatial Channel leading from the Lower Realm to the Upper Realm? It was simply unreasonable.

As for Elder Jiu Ling... Lady Hua also couldn't have guessed that the friendship between Xu Xing and Elder Jiu Ling ran so deep. Hundreds of years had passed. Moreover, she had known Elder Jiu Ling for much longer than Xu Xing had.

It seems Fellow Daoist Hua admits that she killed Fellow Daoist Jiu Ling... Xu Xing shook his head.

"At that time, Elder Jiu Ling was about to die! I didn't kill him; I just didn't save him..." Lady Hua defended herself. The Broken Dragon Platform in the Louhai Secret Realm was a dangerous place. It was already difficult for her to ensure her own survival, let alone have the chance to look after Elder Jiu Ling.

"Right or wrong, I'll know after searching your soul. With my Primordial Spirit attainments, I can do it without harming your Sea of Consciousness." Xu Xing sealed Lady Hua's seven orifices, no longer listening to her defense. Then, he placed his fingers close to Lady Hua's brow and used the "Soul Searching Technique."

The Soul Searching Technique was a cruel punishment for cultivators. Those subjected to Soul Searching often suffered a shattered Sea of Consciousness, injured their Divine Soul, and became imbeciles.

However, Xu Xing was now a cultivator at the fifth Tribulation of the Primordial Spirit. His Magic Power, now capable of Generating, entered Lady Hua's Sea of Consciousness, minimizing the damage from the Soul Searching.

As expected, it's almost the same as what I guessed. A moment later, within Lady Hua's memories, Xu Xing found the scene of her harming Elder Jiu Ling. The truth was almost the same as what Lady Hua had just said, but there were some minor differences in the process.

Back then, Elder Jiu Ling and Lady Hua had teamed up to explore the Louhai Secret Realm, searching for opportunities and treasures. But as more and more Nascent Soul Cultivators poured into the Louhai Secret Realm, its resources became scarce. So, the two set their sights on the only undeveloped dangerous area—the Broken Dragon Platform.

Working together and using secret techniques, they evaded the pursuit of the Dragon Resentment and successfully entered the interior of the Broken Dragon Platform. Inside the Broken Dragon Platform, Lady Hua and Elder Jiu Ling discovered a Spatial Channel leading to the Chiming World.
