Eternal Life: I Can Break Through The Limits Of All Methods

Chapter 88: Sword Spirit Intelligence Network

After the inquiry was over, he could finally go home.

Walking on the road, he occasionally switched perspectives to observe the situation in Yanxia Valley and outside the sect.

The search in Yanxia Valley was still ongoing, but ultimately, they found nothing.

There was no way around it. He had burned the bodies of Zhou Junyi and the others himself, and the scene had been cleaned up, leaving no evidence.

Moreover, the most important disciple, Wang Ming, had returned. The Punishment Hall naturally wouldn't conduct any further investigation.

They would only continue to focus on capturing Zhou Junyi, but they would never find him in their lifetime.

He had placed the five perception plants outside the sect on some major traffic routes or mountaintops.

There was also one on the Great Dao within ten miles of Heavenly Origin City. With his current proficiency in germination, he couldn't establish a connection with that perception plant yet, as it was more than forty miles away.

But once his proficiency in germination was sufficient, he would be able to establish a connection with that plant and observe the situation in Heavenly Origin City through it.

There was a lot of information circulating in Heavenly Origin City. Many cultivators liked to gather and discuss the recent events in the cultivation world. He could use this to understand what was happening with the external cultivation forces.

Information was crucial, especially after the start of the Dragon Gate Trial.

In case of any turmoil, it would be good to know where to escape.

In addition, he also sensed a High Grade sword spirit at the Foundation Building Late Stage through telepathy.

"Master... I have been taken... by the Yang family's third young master, Yang Peng, in Heavenly Origin City... He is a sword cultivator at the Foundation Building Late Stage."

Each sword spirit had a unique personality and a soul-like existence.

This sword was completely black, with a straight and slender blade. He named it Mofeng. The sword spirit's personality was like that of a cold and aloof adult man.

Of course, it would still speak when necessary, such as revealing information about its current master. It would tell him everything without reservation.

At this moment, the telepathic connection between him and the sword spirit spanned over two hundred miles, covering a large area, much larger than the range of the germination technique's connection.

He could also obtain some information about Heavenly Origin City through the sword spirit's relay.

As his sword was sold to various places, he could also obtain more information through the sword spirit's relay.

However, some sword spirits had the personality of a babbling child, with weak souls and not very high intelligence.

Unless they could grow further, it would be difficult to obtain any useful information from them.

It was like sending out a group of spies. Some were highly capable, while others were weak.

He still had to analyze and filter the information they brought back, as well as judge its accuracy.

So, although this method allowed for a wider range of information collection, it was far from being as effective as his own perception of plants and trees.

In his mind, he responded to Mofeng, "Alright, understood. That's all for now."

"If there is any important information, continue to relay it."

"Understood... Master..."

Not long after, Chu Ming arrived at the entrance of his own courtyard and pushed open the door.

Xiao Yuying saw Chu Ming entering the house through the window and immediately ran out to greet him.

"Senior Brother!"

She noticed that Chu Ming's clothes had some tears and quickly ran over, worriedly asking, "Senior Brother, what happened?"

Chu Ming waved his hand. "It's nothing. Just a little trouble, but it was nothing serious."

He led his junior sister into the room and sat down, recounting the events that had just happened.

Naturally, he fabricated a version of the story. He couldn't tell his junior sister the truth.

After hearing this, Xiao Yuying hugged Chu Ming and burst into tears. "It's all that Elder Wu's fault, forcing Senior Brother to go out and be suspected."

"That Wang Ming is really not a good person either, abandoning Senior Brother and not caring, luckily Senior Brother is safe and sound."

After living together for over half a year, their affection for each other had grown. Xiao Yuying had already regarded Chu Ming as her everything.

If Chu Ming had died, she really didn't know how she would live on, and she couldn't even find a reason to continue living.

So even though Chu Ming had a narrow escape and returned alive, she still cursed Elder Wu Changqing and Wang Ming.

Chu Ming embraced his junior sister and kissed her forehead, comforting her, "Don't be afraid, Senior Brother wouldn't have gone if he didn't have full confidence. You've seen Senior Brother's strength."

"If there really was any danger, no matter who asked Senior Brother to go, he wouldn't go, let alone abandon you."

"Going out this time is also good, it will improve our combat experience, which will be useful in the future."

"And after this, Elder Wu Changqing won't arrange any more trials, so we can live peacefully for a while."

Xiao Yuying cried in Chu Ming's arms for a while before finally lifting her head.

"Yeah, as long as we don't have to go out again."

"By the way, Senior Brother, I have already broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refining, and both Golden Light Slash and Fire Breathing Art have reached Great Completion."

"Oh?" After sensing it, Chu Ming discovered that his junior sister had indeed broken through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

The Five Elements Art is very difficult to practice. Even with the assistance of the Blissful Room at the Perfection level and her own guidance, it is still quite difficult to enter the fourth level of Qi Refining in a short time.

Moreover, both Golden Light Slash and Fire Breathing Art have reached Great Completion. His junior sister has made such great progress in half a day.

Chu Ming felt very pleased. "Junior sister, you're progressing so quickly."

Xiao Yuying smiled and said, "Today, I carefully recalled Senior Brother's guidance to me before, pondered over it, and practiced diligently."

"I finally made a breakthrough."

"I was thinking that if I could improve my strength a bit more, I wouldn't have to let Senior Brother go out alone into danger."

"When we're together, we can take care of each other, even if we die, we can die together."

Chu Ming smiled and touched her cheek. "Senior Brother understands your intentions, but rest assured, Senior Brother won't die, and I won't let you die."

"It's good that you have the determination to cultivate, but don't always think about sacrificing yourself."

"If there really is danger, we should think about escaping first. If necessary, it's okay to leave Senior Brother behind and run alone."

"Senior Brother has many means to save his own life, you go first, Senior Brother can easily escape."

"If both of us can escape, but you insist on doing the foolish thing of blocking the blade for Senior Brother, wouldn't that be too stupid?"

Xiao Yuying nodded. "I won't do anything foolish, but if it's really necessary, I would rather live and die together with Senior Brother."

"Why always think about life and death matters?" Chu Ming smiled helplessly, but he was still moved.

To find such a good woman as his junior sister, what more could he ask for?

"Alright, let's not talk about these things anymore. Anyway, I won't go out in the future."

"I'll change my clothes, and then we'll go to the market and buy some pills for both of us."

"I've been thinking about learning alchemy recently, so it's a good opportunity to buy some materials."

Xiao Yuying nodded. "Okay, I'll get your clothes, Senior Brother."
