Chapter 63: Dark Night Enchantress

  Three days is neither fast nor slow, for ants it's a long time, but for cultivators, it's just ordinary three days, nothing special.

  Feeling the surging energy coursing through his bones, flesh and meridians, Chen Jiu's mouth curled up into a faintly triumphant smile.

  This momentum exudes a hint of ancient aura, which is the legendary Wild Ox Energy. However, this Wild Ox Energy is not the same as that one, and the Wild Ox Energy currently circulating within his body has undergone transformation through the Divine Seed.

  This story starts from the day before, after Chen Jiu had a certain degree of enlightenment about the fierce aura of the wild cow, he casually took a stance and as a result, a wisp of the fierce aura of the wild cow was produced in his body. However, this fierce aura of the wild cow was just born when it was swallowed by that divine seed's overbearing nature.

  Chen Ji was stunned for a moment, what's going on here? Are you kidding me?

  "You've already absorbed enough energy, why bother coming to join in the fun?" Chen Jiuning said to his own divine seed.

  This "Divine Seed" name was casually obtained by Chen, and he didn't know what this thing covered with mysterious symbols and silk threads was, but being able to absorb so much Heavenly Dao's power, it must be extraordinary.

  Chen Jiu had no three souls and seven spirits, because the three souls and seven spirits had all been absorbed by this dull and unremarkable divine seed.

  As the strands of wild cow energy were being refined, the kind of joy that came from devouring it was just about to erupt when Chen Jiu was about to burst out, the divine seed finally changed, and a strand of pure ancient wild cow energy was spat out by the divine seed.

  Feeling this wild and unbridled energy, I can feel the difference between heaven and earth, even a fool would have a choice, let alone Chen Jiu who is not a fool.

  This strand of wild cow's strength not only carries a hint of ancient aura, but also carries a hint of unusual rule aura. Chen Jiu's realm is not high and he can't sense it.

  Feeling the skeleton being constantly nourished, the blood vessels being purified bit by bit, and the meridians becoming more powerful and elastic under the nourishment of that vigorous energy, this is simply a rebirth within Chen Jiu's body, a transformation of his bones and a new beginning.

  "Are you awake?" The old man looked at Chen Jiu quietly.

  Chen nodded: "Thanks for your help, Master."

  The old man didn't show any pretence, but said: "You are the best innate talent I have ever seen, without exception. This wild bull's strength is one of the best body-tempering methods since ancient times. I never thought that you would grasp it thoroughly in just two and a half days. This is absolutely beyond my expectations."

  At this point, the old man's eyes were fixed on Chen Jiu: "You must remember that this fierce cow power cannot be spread outside, no one can, and your future generations will not be allowed."

  Chen Jiubadao: "Yes, I will be a legendary figure in the future, but my son may not be, and my grandson is even more uncertain what he will become. This reckless energy passed down will only bring trouble."

  "It's fine if you understand. It's already late at night now, and this library has never accommodated overnight stays. Your fellow students have all left, so you should leave too."

  "Mr., goodbye, student withdraws."

  "Go on, go on."

  As he watched Chen Jiuyuan's departing figure, the old man's hands slowly dropped, and a strange light flickered in his eyes before he fell back into reminiscence.

  Looking at the starry sky, Chen Jiu lightly stepped out of the Cangshu Pavilion. As soon as he came out, the door of the Cangjing Pavilion automatically closed.

  "This fierce cow's power is an ancient technique, although it can't be compared to the creation of heaven and earth, but it also has some wonderful uses, and the speed of removing impurities in the body has accelerated again."

  As he spoke, Chen Jiuyi slowly walked out along the way he came, shaking his head three times. Although the night was dark, it was still visible to Chen Jiuyi.

  Suddenly, a faint movement shifted Chen Jiu's attention over there. Feeling that slight footsteps, Chen Jiu wondered in his heart: "Why can't you rest peacefully on this dark night and instead run around everywhere?"

  Chen Jiu quickly walked in that direction, perhaps it was Chen Jiu's footsteps that startled the other person. Suddenly, a burst of air-piercing sound entered Chen Jiu's ears, and he subconsciously tilted his head to one side. A black object whizzed past his ear and heavily nailed itself into the building behind him.

  That black shadow saw itself lose its grip and quickly flashed towards a fake mountain in the distance.

  Mysteriously being set up by someone, Chen Jiu would not give up. This black shadow staying awake at midnight must have an ulterior motive, and it's a motive that can't be seen by others.

  Chen Jiu had no skill in controlling his breath, nor was he proficient in light body techniques, and could only rely on his own footsteps to clumsily chase after.

  It's okay, maybe that man in black was waiting for Chen Jiu on purpose. After turning around a fake mountain, Chen Jiu finally saw the figure standing under the night sky.

  A black robe, under the night color can't see the face, a huge hood tightly covers its face.

  At this time, the man in black stood on the fake mountain, with his back facing Chen Jiu.

  Chen Jiutian stopped in his tracks, remained silent for a moment before speaking: "Who are you, why are you sneaking around at midnight, what is your intention, and why did you ambush me?"

  "You have a lot of questions, how am I supposed to answer?" The black-clad person's voice was unclear whether it was male or female, and had a slight tremolo like a broken bell.

  "Since it's hard to answer, let's take them one by one then." Chen Jiu took three light steps forward.

  "Haha, actually, a way of not answering is just not answering. Do you think it's meaningful to give an answer to someone who's dead?"

  Chen Jiubai's hands were behind his back: "Indeed, it is meaningless. Do you think you can kill me?"

  "Whether it can be killed or not, just try and you'll know."

  Chen Jiulang coldly smiled: "This is a school, with great Confucian scholars presiding here. As long as there's even the slightest disturbance, do you think you can still get out of here alive?"

  "Oh, you still think you have a chance to make a move now?" the dark figure asked.

  "Actually, when you just discovered me, it was the best time to shock the Academy, unfortunately, you hesitated at that time. Now, don't you feel a little regretful?" The black shadow continued.

  Chen Jiu's right hand was shrouded in a layer of blackness, and under the moonlight, it still looked slightly cold: "We can try."

  After finishing speaking, Chen Jiu didn't give the other party time to react, and directly jumped up, pouncing towards that black shadow.

  "Hah, looking for death? Since you want to seek death, I'll fulfill your wish!" The dark figure let out a cold laugh, his right hand clenched into a fist as he struck towards Chen Jiu with a faint green glow.

  A "poof" sound, Chen Jiu and the black figure retreated simultaneously.

  "Kid, you've got some skills, but if it weren't for this place being so oppressive, I could take you down with one move and turn you into mush."

  Chen Jiubai waved his right hand and sneered: "Don't care if there is a majestic atmosphere here, the pressure of the saints and sages of past dynasties. If you can't bring me down today, you'll be in trouble."

  Feeling the green energy in his hand, Chen Jiu furrowed his brow and said: "What is this energy?"

  The "ignorant" dark shadow sneered and didn't tell Chen Jiu.

  "I'm ignorant, take a look at your own right hand, isn't there a faint black line?" Chen Jiu retorted with a defiant smile.

  "Ah" The black shadow raised its right hand, and on the back of its hand, there was indeed a black line about an inch long. Although it couldn't be seen in the dark, from its tattered black robe, it could be seen that this guy had sensed something was wrong.

  "You actually fell for my plan, but this isn't anything, if you hadn't spoken up, I might have quietly fallen into the trap, unfortunately, you foolishly spoke out, wait for me to force it out." The dark figure finished speaking and began to circulate his energy.

  Chen Jiuhao didn't worry at all, calmly looking at the black shadow. After a while, the black shadow stopped moving, and the black hood slowly rose: "What is this, why is it so troublesome?"

  " Ignorant" Chen Jiu went back.

  "You...," The black-clad figure was almost choked to death by Chen Jiu.

  "See that black line?" Chen Jiu asked faintly.

  "What is this? I saw it."

  From now on, that black line is growing every moment. You still have three hours of life left. Three hours later, the poison will attack your heart, and at that time, it won't be just physical death, but also your soul will be erased in an instant.

  The man in black looked at the black thread in his hand with a suspicious gaze, and suddenly his pupils contracted. The black thread was indeed growing continuously.

  Looking at the black-clad man's knife-drawing action, Chen Jiuyi smiled: "Don't think about cutting off your limbs, this poison is the heel bone poison, even if you cut off your arm, it will still come to your body through the power of fate."
