Xu Chong came into the palace again.
The scene was the same as last time. The hall was still incredibly large and empty. I couldn't find my way around. I could only see the palace walls all around and the caisson on the roof of the hall, which was dozens of feet high and round on the outside and square on the inside, with intricate patterns all over it.
The only difference was the wisps of light that seeped in from all directions of the palace.
"These lights feel very familiar... Is it the power of the Pure Yang Body Cleansing Record?"
Xu Chong seemed to be thinking about something.
The so-called Purple Palace Seeding Dao should be the process of using strength to penetrate the entire Purple Palace and merge with it.
As for what changes will happen later, it is still unknown for the time being.
One thing was exactly as expected...the whole process was uneventful, and nothing that looked dangerous occurred.
Easy and unremarkable.
Xu Chong was not in a hurry either, he just waited quietly.
There is no reference point here to concretely perceive the passage of time.
No one knew how long it had been, but the power of the Pure Yang Body Cleansing Record finally permeated the entire palace.
The strength is only about one tenth of the total.
These excess parts gradually formed a huge golden sphere with a diameter of several feet in the air in the hall.
When all the excess energy was gathered, the sphere separated into three golden lights, which fell towards the three directions of the hall.
"Uh...was this a success or a failure?"
Xu Chong was puzzled and walked towards the direction where the force fell.
Not long after, four golden square flakes appeared before his eyes, arranged in a regular four-corner pattern.
The left and right sides are about three meters apart, and the front and back are about ten meters apart.
Pure Yang energy continuously poured into the slice and merged into it.
The flakes gradually thicken and appear to be growing upwards.
"Okay, there's a sequel..."
Xu Chong shook his head.
According to previous understanding, success would be achieved if the strength completely permeates the purple palace.
Now it seems to be much more than that.
There is no way, just keep waiting.
In this way, under Xu Chong's gaze, the thin slices were raised little by little and soon became four square pillars.
When it reaches about one foot high, the force comes out from the pillars, connects together and forms a plane.
Moreover, the newly 'grown' part has begun to show arcs, as if outlining some kind of pattern.
"Why does it look like a coffee table... There are no chairs in this hall, what is the use of a coffee table?"
Xu Chong complained, and then was shocked the next moment.
etc!!
Chair?!
“…Isn’t this just a chair?”
Xu Chong was horrified.
If it really is a chair, then judging by its size... I'm afraid it would only take a giant over ten feet tall to use it?
Okay, let’s leave this aside for now.
There is one more terrible thing.
The remaining strength...is not enough!
Xu Chong raised his head and looked above the hall.
The golden sphere, which was originally several meters in size, was now only as big as a washbasin, and was still shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Oh my god... If this chair can't take shape, does it mean that the cultivation has failed?"
Xu Chong's expression became increasingly uglier.
He clearly remembered what Yuan Shouyi said, that if planting the Dao Purple Palace... fails, then you will die.
If I fail, won’t I be dead?
Xu Chong was a little panicked, but there was nothing he could do and he could only hope that he was wrong.
A while later.
The golden sphere disappeared completely.
Xu Chong's hopes were dashed.
What the golden light condensed was indeed a chair.
But up to now, this chair has only condensed a small part...even the cushion has not "grown" yet.
At this point, Xu Chong calmed down.
"That premonition was correct. The Purple Mansion Seed Path will not cause any danger to me."
"Everything that happened just now is enough to prove this point."
"The current situation is not actually a failure of the cultivation path, but a disruption of the cultivation path... because the energy is not enough."
"It seems that after devouring Xie Changqing's purple palace, my purple palace is much larger than that of a normal person, so the consumption of energy has also increased too much. The ninth level of body cleansing is not enough to support the completion of the seeding."
"The only feasible way now is to leave the Purple Palace and wait until the strength is completely restored before practicing cultivation. This should be repeated many times before the Purple Palace cultivation can be completely completed."
Xu Chong analyzed the causes and consequences and deduced a solution, but his mood did not improve. Instead, he felt even worse.
Because he couldn't find a way out...
The last time I came in, I was attracted by the changes in the land of seeds, and I went out because the changes were completed and my body automatically awakened.
But this time it's completely different.
This time I came in because of a breakthrough in realm, which can be seen as an initiative.
In this case, the breakthrough is not completely completed, and theoretically the physical body cannot awaken itself...
Only through external stimulation.
"External stimulation?"
"My physical body is on the seventh floor of Taiyin Pavilion. When I deliver food and water to you on weekdays, I just leave it at the door. No one will come in to disturb you, and they won't even knock on the door."
"Also, the old lady is stuck on the sixth floor to prevent Nong Yue from sneaking up to meet me..."
“What the hell!!”
"She won't keep me locked up like this for half a year, will she?!"
"The ninth level of body cleansing. You can't survive for half a year without eating or drinking..."
Thinking of this, even if Xu Chong was a cunning man, he couldn't help but start to panic.
Death is not impossible.
but……
You're not even halfway through starting your business and you're starving to death?
…
…
In the blink of an eye, a month and a half passed.
That day, Sun Yourong stayed in her room, looking miserable and confused.
The veil had been removed, revealing the incredibly beautiful face and fatal temptation.
Unfortunately, she was the only one in the room, and no one could appreciate this thrilling experience.
On the table in front of her was a bronze document.
There are a few lines of words engraved on it, which roughly mean that two good friends made a simple contract for their future children. If they are both boys or girls, they will become sworn brothers. If one is a boy and the other is a girl, they will get married.
Below these lines of words, there are two names that were obviously newly engraved later.
One is Sun Yourong.
The other one is Xu Chong.
Not only that, there was also a small bloody handprint above each of the two names.
The handprint on the two words "Xu Chong" should be slightly larger.
Sun Yourong smiled bitterly, "If I hadn't lied to him that we were cousins, but told him the truth, he..."
Before she could finish her words, Sun Yourong covered her face and shook her head vigorously.
"He is my aunt's husband now, my uncle-in-law, I can't think about this anymore..."
"Besides, he and my aunt are really a good match."
"…They are like a match made in heaven. What I should do is to bless them."
Sun Yourong covered her face and lay on the table tremblingly.
Perhaps it was love that hurt her. Ever since Xu Chong was captured by Zhong Dao, she had not been able to eat or sleep for the past two months, which had exhausted her energy. She actually fell asleep exhaustedly on the table.
It was not until late at night that Sun Yourong woke up.
"You actually fell asleep..."
Sun Yourong smiled self-deprecatingly, wiped the moisture from her face, and then looked at the bronze document.
This bronze book is a Taoist artifact, named Tongxinqi.
As long as you carve two people's names on it and then smear their blood on the other person's name, you can sense the other person's mood and emotions based on your own blood.
Why did she fall so deeply in love with Xu Chong after only meeting him twice?
Because she often secretly used the Heart Contract to feel Xu Chong.
…from a very young age.
Xu Chong was initially cheerful, optimistic, and righteous, but later he became painful, entangled, and struggled.
There was also the despair of hanging oneself from the beam.
Sun Yourong understood it all.
Later, she became a Taoist, and for fear of losing it, she left the Heart-to-Heart Contract on the Hua family's ship, which greatly reduced the frequency of its use.
At this time, Sun Yourong was more curious about Xu Chong.
She didn't understand why a person could be so miserable and conflicted while being optimistic and just?
She wanted to meet Xu Chong in person and see what kind of person he was, but unfortunately she never had the chance.
It was not until her mother received a letter from Xu Youan and found something was wrong in the letter that she made the trip to Canglong County.
During that meeting, Sun Yourong was a little disappointed with Xu Chong.
Disappointed that Xu Chong only cared about his own beliefs and had no sadness at all about Xu Youan's death.
At that time, she even planned to throw the heart-to-heart contract into the sea as soon as she returned to the ship, so as to completely sever her connection with Xu Chong.
But unexpectedly, he was forced back to Canglong again by the sudden appearance of Fu Yuanlong.
That was the second time they met.
This time , all the impressions Sun Yourong had formed of Xu Chong were overturned.
He dared to take the initiative to find ways to save himself even though he was far weaker than Fu Yuanlong.
Be cautious, bold and responsible.
At this point, Sun Yourong's feelings towards Xu Chong began to become complicated, and she regained her curiosity.
In less than two years, whenever she had time, she would return to the ship, secretly take out the heart-to-heart contract, and feel Xu Chong's feelings.
Once, twice, three times, ten times...
The act of 'spying' on Xu Chong gradually became her habit.
Even she herself didn't know that she was actually thinking about Xu Chong.
Until the song "Gift to You, Flowers" appeared.
Unfortunately, the way things turned out did not allow her any choice.
In this way, Xu Chong became Hua Nong Yue's fiancé and her uncle-in-law.
"Uncle-in-law..."
Sun Yourong murmured, and her eyes suddenly became determined as she looked at the bronze book.
"For the last time..."
"Please let me feel your feelings one last time."
"After this time, this Taoist weapon will sink into the deep sea and never see the light of day again."
Just like that, Sun Yourong reached out and touched the two words "Xu Chong" that were stained with her own blood.
Swish!
In just a moment of contact, Sun Yourong suddenly withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted.
Horrified!
At this moment, Xu Chong was in great fear!
How is this possible? !
Not to mention that the tower ship is a Taoist weapon, it is extremely difficult to find.
Even if someone found the building ship, with the old lady in the Dharma Realm there, no one could hurt Xu Chong!
Why are you so scared?!
Logically speaking, Xu Chong should be in seclusion practicing now.
And only a month and a half had passed.
"An illusion! It must be an illusion!"
Sun Yourong managed to calm herself down and reached out to touch him again.
This time, she did not withdraw her hand.
But her expression suddenly turned ugly.
Because this time, she not only felt fear from the heart-to-heart contract...
There is also a hint of despair!
How could there be despair?!
You know, she has sensed Xu Chong countless times through the Heart Contract, and the only time she felt despair was later confirmed to be suicide by hanging...
Although the current despair does not have the same sense of loss of heart as before, it is the only one that appears after all.
Xu Chong is in danger!
Sun Yourong stood up suddenly and rushed out of the door like a madman.
She didn't know why Xu Chong was in danger, nor did she know where the danger came from on the ship.
But she knew Xu Chong was in danger, and that was enough.
