Peerless War God

He was already tired from dealing with so many things. Since he had returned home, there was no need to be so tired anymore. He should be more relaxed.    

"Mm, healing my injuries is more important."    

Chen Xiao took a deep breath and pushed open the secret room in the depths of the Transfer Spirit Immortal Mansion.    

This was the place where he had been cultivating in seclusion. It was also the place where he had left his Black Spirit Doppelganger after he had left. In case anything unexpected happened, it was better to prepare for the worst.    

In that situation, if the Black Spirit Doppelganger had not appeared, the consequences would have been unpredictable.    

"Creak."    

He gently pushed open the door to the secret room. What entered his eyes was a giant that was ten feet tall. It was sitting quietly on the ground like a bronze statue, silently waiting for him.    

In an instant, their gazes converged in midair, and they smiled silently.    

"You're back." The Black Spirit Doppelganger looked at Chen Xiao and finally spoke.    

Chen Xiao opened his mouth wide and grinned. He nodded and said, "Mm."    

The Black Spirit Doppelganger did not say anything more. Instead, he stood up. In the next moment, his figure began to shrink and turned into a ray of light that entered Chen Xiao's Divine Hall's soul sea. He sat down again. This was the place he should have been.    

"Now I feel much better. Even the injuries on my body have eased up a little."    

Seeing this, Chen Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.    

He sat down on the praying mat and took out a few bottles of pills. He placed them in front of him and pointed with his right hand. Immediately, one of the bottles emitted a faint cold air and a dense medicinal fragrance. It flew into his mouth one by one.    

"Start refining and healing."    

His mana gathered in his dantian. It flashed and wrapped around the pills, extracting the medicinal strength bit by bit.    

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.    

The door of the secret chamber in the Immortal Mansion was tightly closed, and there was no sign of it opening. Although Yue Yao and the other girls outside the secret chamber were a little worried, they could still sense Chen Xiao's presence at any time. Thus, they relaxed and focused on their own cultivation.    

Inside the secret chamber.    

"Collect."    

Chen Xiao's eyes focused. The last trace of medicinal strength completely melted in his dantian and connected to his entire body.    

Immediately after, a mouthful of black blood was spat onto the ground. It was black and sticky, and his face immediately turned pale. It quickly turned red and rosy, and his complexion recovered. It was even stronger than before.    

"Hu ~" Chen Xiao let out a long sigh of relief, "I've spent more than half a year, and my injuries have mostly recovered. My efforts have not been in vain."    

The injuries on his body had recovered faster than he had imagined. This was an unexpected surprise.    

"Heh, it's all because of me. Without my support, how could you recover so quickly?"    

In his soul sea, Xilo laid on the ground and said in boredom.    

Chen Xiao chuckled and said, "Yes, yes, I know. You helped me, so I remember it."    

"That's good. Remember to get more dust crystals when you have the chance. This thing tastes pretty good."    

Xilo held a golden crystal in his hand. It was something like a gold ingot. He took it in one bite, like he was eating a fruit. Chen Xiao was dumbfounded.    

He knew that when he got the dust crystals from the Sand Clan, he had obtained a few mountain-sized dust crystal mines. Now, Xilo had eaten all of them.    

However, when he thought about how Xilo's strength had increased a lot after devouring the dust crystals, he did not have any complaints.    

"Alright." Chen Xiao nodded.    

"En, then I'll continue to sleep."    

After saying that, Xilo ignored Chen Xiao and returned to the depths of his soul sea.    

Chen Xiao laughed and shook his head. Then, he took out the nameless soul sword technique and held it in his hand. He studied it carefully, and his heart was filled with emotion.    

"I never thought that after so many twists and turns, this thing would still fall into my hands."    

Although there was Ao Bai's interference at the Green Cloud Summit, he almost missed this treasure. However, the final result was still good.    

The experts of the Dragon Palace were too conceited. They wanted to control him, but in the end, he was still killed by him and even took the nameless soul sword technique.    

Not only did he have this treasure, but he also had the Holy Blood Pill. He had already given the Holy Blood Pill to Lil' Dragon and used it well.    

"Right now, it is suitable for me to cultivate the Soul Sword Technique."    

Chen Xiao's divine sense penetrated into the strange beast skin. With a boom, it was as if the power of creation had been unleashed. His divine sense was completely sucked in and entered another space.    

In this strange space, countless rays of light and runes flowed, forming incomparably complicated flowing pictures, sketching out the boundless power of the world. It was as if the entire world had changed at this moment, gaining new comprehension.    

"This is the power of heaven and earth, the rules of the circulation of the Heavenly Dao, and the cultivation method of the soul?"    

Chen Xiao was shocked. He raised his head and looked up at this strange space that was like a starry sky.    

At this moment, the endless starlight shattered and condensed into form. Gradually, a terrifying ancient rune formed in the sky. This rune had a great demonic power as it crazily tore at the power of space, as if it wanted to swallow Chen Xiao whole.    

"Not good, my divine sense is being consumed. This …"    

Seeing this, he was shocked.    

In the blink of an eye, more than 90% of his divine sense was sucked out and poured into the ancient rune in the sky.    

"Hiss ~"    

He took a deep breath and felt his head aching as he smiled bitterly.    

"What a terrifying suction force. It actually sucked away all of my divine sense. It's too terrifying."    

Fortunately, he still managed to hold on in the end and didn't fall.    

As Chen Xiao channeled his Spiritual Sense into the talisman, the talisman was completely excited. It flashed with a dazzling light, and in the next moment, it turned into a sea of talisman scripts that pounced towards Chen Xiao. It crazily channeled the knowledge and power into his soul.    

"Boom!"    

Like a mud bull entering the sea, the boundless soul sword cultivation method was imprinted into Chen Xiao's mind, and he could not get rid of it.    

During the entire process, the beast skin that was originally quietly lying in his hands also quietly turned into black ashes, completely destroying it.    

Just like that, after an unknown period of time, Chen Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and muttered, "Shadow Soul Sword."    

"Shadow Soul Sword."    

The technique recorded in this strange beast skin was called Shadow Soul Sword. Haha, it really was right. This thing was very useful to him.    

"Haha, what a good Shadow Soul Sword. It was worth the risk of me taking it."    

In the secret room, Chen Xiao laughed out loud, feeling very relieved. His efforts were not in vain, and he did not make enemies with the Dragon Palace for nothing. It was worth it.    

"Eh?"    

Suddenly, he realized that the beast skin in his hands had completely turned into ashes.    

He was stunned for a moment and felt a little regretful. He said, "It actually turned into ashes. What a pity."
