My Nascent Soul Ran Away Again

Chapter 3: Cheng Hongtan and Cheng Lingzhu

"It's been a long time since I've thrown someone like this."

Lu Xuan looked in the direction where the elder flew off.

The latter would probably have to fly for a while more.

He hoped that it wouldn't hit the cultivators who were riding their swords.

Xiaoshui City's array could teleport far away, and he was already close to the agreed location.

Not far away was a large river. The current was rapid and surging.

Lu Xuan threw out a spirit ship and lay on it as it floated down the river.

After drifting for over a hundred kilometers, he arrived near a small town. It was located at the border of the Heavenly Water Temple and was also where they had agreed to meet.

"Not too early, not too late. The time is just right."

Lu Xuan calculated the time and stood guard on the road that they had to take to enter the town.

Shortly, a small white dot flew over from the horizon and quickly landed. It was a female cultivator.

"Pfft-"

With a sudden brake, the sword tip tore through the air and the flying sword stopped in front of Lu Xuan.

This female priestess wore a Daoist robe and had a voluptuous figure. She had a pair of delicate boots and jumped down before the flying sword could stop.

The first thing she said when she saw Lu Xuan was...

"Why is he only a Golden Core cultivator?"

The female priestess in front of him was only seventeen or eighteen years old. While she was still young, her clothes were a little small and her bosom was bulging.

At this moment, she was scrutinizing Lu Xuan.

"No bare feet."

Lu Xuan's dark eyes darkened. The Golden Core expert had caught the main point in detail.

"Ahem, I mean, I'm not an ordinary Golden Core cultivator. I'm in the peak Golden Core stage."

Lu Xuan blinked and looked away.

"Exceptional Golden Core stage is still a Golden Core stage. One of the grandmasters of the Heavenly Water Temple is already in the Nascent Soul stage, but after entering that dead city, he hasn't come out yet."

The female Taoist priestess was extremely beautiful. When she mentioned this matter, she frowned slightly.

"The Heavenly Water Temple?" Lu Xuan noticed the other party's description.

"I am the current Wayfarer of the Dushi Sword House, Cheng Lingzhu," she said. She placed one hand behind her back and a jade token appeared in her other hand. She showed it to Lu Xuan.

"Hiss-"

Lu Xuan gasped.

Immediately, he was filled with respect.

Dushi Sword House was one of the top immortal sects in the Archean Eon World. It was also the oldest and most mysterious immortal sect in the Archean Eon World.

No one knew where the immortal sect was. There was a rumor in the cultivation world that unless the Dushi Sword House was willing to take the initiative to show itself, even a True Immortal would not be able to find its headquarters.

The world did not know much about the Dushi Sword House. They only knew that the disciples in the house were all women.

The successor of the next temple master was known as the Human World Wayfarer. In human terms, she was a saintess.

However, Lu Xuan knew something different.

Although it was called a Sword House, the cultivators of the Dushi Sword House were not cultivators in the common sense.

The disciples of this immortal sect acted abnormally and never avoided calamity. They would participate in major events, wade in muddy waters, and push through danger. It could be said that trouble would happen wherever they went.

There was naturally a reason why such a sect that caused trouble everywhere did not make enemies from all sides and was instead respected.

Disciples of the Dushi Sword House were very good at fighting.

When Lu Xuan traveled the world of martial arts, he had once taken a saintess of the Dushi Sword House as his teacher.

The other party's name was Cheng Hongtan.

This happened more than 8,000 years ago.

At that time, his 'personal master' and Dao Evolution Sect's sect leader had just ascended.

Back then, Lu Xuan had only cultivated for a hundred years and was quite weak.

However, in order to find the real method of forming the Nascent Soul, he chose to go down the mountain and wander around. Then, he met the saintess of the Dushi Sword House.

As for the reason why he wanted to be her disciple...

It was neither because the saintess of that generation was peerless and beautiful, nor was it because Fairy Cheng's legs were long, her waist thin, and her feet exquisite and small. It wasn't even because she wore white silk and he felt very comfortable when he hugged her to sleep...

It was because the Dao Evolution Sect's ancestor had left behind a letter that recorded that the Dushi Sword House's immortal scripture that was part of its inheritance had great achievements in the Nascent Soul stage.

The Dao Evolution Sect's cultivation scripture was called the True Dao Evolution Technique. It was compiled by the founder after he had gathered the strengths of each sect.

This cultivation manual was all-encompassing. It was the strongest immortal scripture in the entire Archean Eon World.

His body-tempering cultivation technique was the first true scripture of the Buddha Reincarnation Sect. His Qi Refining stage was obtained from the first Dao Canon of the Dao Sect. His Golden Core cultivation technique was also a fusion of the Quintessence of the Archean Eon World's number one Inner Pill Immortal Sect and number one Outer Pill Immortal Sect...

Only the Nascent Soul manual was compiled by the founder himself.

The reason was very simple. When the ancestor stole the Immortal Sutra, he did not beat the saintess of the Dushi Sword House.

The Dao Evolution Sect was a thief.

The so-called Dao Evolution Sect was actually...the Pirate Sect.

The Dao Evolution Sect's Ancestral Master rose from the ashes and became a Perfected Immortal as a mortal. He relied on his ability to act like a newbie.

In that era, all the great immortal sects were strictly guarded against their own cultivation of immortal scriptures.

The Founding Master had worshiped dozens of ancient sects and secretly learned the immortal scriptures and true techniques of each sect. He was ordered to be killed by the Righteous Dao, the Devil Dao, and hundreds of immortal sects.

Such treatment had never been seen before.

Lu Xuan flipped through the Dao Evolution Sect's records and sighed at how ruthless his ancestor was.

The rules for entering a sect were strict. One had to check their soul to see if they were spies.

Back then, in order to secretly learn from him, the Ancestral Master stored every technique he learned in his secret treasure. At the same time, he risked his life to cleanse and reconstruct his soul, cutting off his previous experiences.

Not to mention outsiders, even he himself did not know that he had stolen a master before.

The first step to lying to others was to lie to yourself.

Using this method to repeatedly clear dungeons, the danger they experienced was naturally more than ten times that of ordinary people.

However, the ancestor had great luck. Not only did he not die, but he even forcefully established the Dao Evolution Sect, suppressing the various immortal sects until they could not raise their heads. Later on, he even ascended to become an immortal, and no one in the world dared to underestimate him.

Only the saintess of the Dushi Sword House who had beaten him up before he attained Dao was still thinking about this matter before he ascended.

When Lu Xuan flipped through the patriarch's handwritten letter, he thought to himself that if the founding patriarch was half as handsome as him and thought of a way to seduce the saintess, perhaps his grand-disciple would not have to worry about forming the Nascent Soul now.

The Daoist scriptures of the Dushi Sword House were not open to outsiders. Only the true disciples of the sect could cultivate, but they did not open their doors to accept disciples like other immortal sects.

Lu Xuan was very motivated back then.

In order to seek the method to form the Nascent Soul, he had to imitate his ancestors. It was not unacceptable for him to suffer a little and acknowledge another master.

He was greedy for the other party's True Immortal cultivation technique. He was honest.

The saintess of the World-Crossing Sword School never accepted disciples outside.

However, Lu Xuan still became Cheng Hongtan's disciple as a man.

One could imagine the difficulties, twists and turns, and coincidences in this.

However, what happened later was beyond his expectations.

The motivated Lu Xuan had indeed taken advantage of him, but the consequences of taking advantage of him were not right.

The saintess of the Dushi Sword House had feelings for him. Her master became his wife, and her disciple became his husband. As time passed, her filial piety changed...

The process could be written into a novel of a million words.

As for why it was only a million words.

First, the female lead was not long.

The second was...In the end, the two of them broke up.

It wasn't a betrayal, nor was it about their stand.

Neither of them did anything wrong, but in the end...

Well, Lu Xuan didn't really want to reminisce about this.

He had only experienced this once in his life.

The beginning wasn't bad, the middle was beautiful, and the ending was terrible.

In the end, she returned to the Secret Realm of the Dushi Sword House. Lu Xuan never saw her again.

At that time, Cheng Hongtan had already entered the Crossing Calamity Stage.

Lu Xuan thought that she must have ascended.

Coincidentally, the person he knew and the saintess of the Dushi Sword House in front of him...

Both shared the surname "Cheng".

Because of this, the memories that Lu Xuan had put aside for a long time gradually surfaced in his mind.

This experience allowed Lu Xuan to learn the inheritance of the Dushi Sword House, and then learn more about this immortal sect.

For example, the Dushi Sword House only had two types of cultivation methods. One was a killing technique, and the other was a killing technique disguised as a defensive technique.

Lu Xuanxin thought to himself, 'What is this about killing to prove dao?'

Therefore, the name of the Dushi Sword House was only related to the sect by the word "sword".

However, at this moment, Lu Xuan was still puzzled.

In his impression, the cultivators of the Dushi Sword House only left the mountain when they achieved the Mahayana stage.

Why was this saintess in front of him experiencing the mortal world when she was only in the Golden Core stage?

"I thought the Dao Evolution Sect would at least send a Soul Formation cultivator over."

Cheng Lingzhu shook her head and interrupted Lu Xuan's thoughts.

However, this was understandable.

The Dao Evolution Sect's talents were dwindling. After so many years, there was not even a single Mahayana stage cultivator.

Cheng Lingzhu sighed in her heart and felt sorry for the Dao Evolution Sect.

The Dao Evolution Sect Leader, Qing Yangzi, was a Void Refining Stage cultivator. While this stage was not considered weak, compared to back then...it was not worth mentioning.

In the Archean Eon World's cultivation system, above the Void Refining stage was Body Integration, and above that was the Mahayana stage.

The Mahayana stage was also called the Transcendence stage. It was a special state for Mahayana stage cultivators.

At the peak of the Dao Evolution Sect, there were several transcending stage cultivators in the sect, and they were only a step away from becoming True Immortals.

Lu Xuan was speechless.

For some reason, the junior sister in front of him clearly looked a few years younger than the 21-year-old him.

However, when she spoke, she gave off the feeling that she was an old woman with a lot of experience.

Lu Xuan sighed.

As expected, it was popular in the cultivation world to be young and mature at the same time.

The saintess was young and wise, just like an old mother.

There weren't many young people like him who were true to their appearance.

"Your talent is impressive. It's a waste for you to stay in the Dao Evolution Sect. I can write you a recommendation letter..." Cheng Lingzhu pondered for a moment.

Lu Xuan thought to himself, 'What is this about persuading me to betray the sect and lead a revolution?'

He rejected the other party on the spot.

Cheng Lingzhu didn't insist. She tossed out her flying vessel and prepared to leave.

After boarding the flying vessel, she turned around and found that Lu Xuan had also followed her.

"I haven't completed the mission the Dao Evolution Sect gave me, so I can't just go back like this."

Lu Xuan was reasonable.

In fact, he was worried that the other party would die in that dead city.

Since she was the saintess of the Dushi Sword House, she was also, in a way, one of his generation of grand-disciples.

The dead city was strange. If she dared to enter the dungeon alone, she must have a trump card.

However, Lu Xuan felt that as an elder, since he had met a descendant, he should take care of her.

Cheng Lingzhu tacitly agreed with him, and the two of them boarded the flying magic vessel together. They set a direction and flew toward the dead city.

Both man and woman sat on the flying vessel.

Lu Xuan stood at the bow of the ship, facing the wind. His white robes fluttered in the wind, looking rather carefree.

Behind him, Cheng Lingzhu looked at Lu Xuan's back and frowned.

It was clearly the first time they had met, so why did the other party seem so familiar?
