I Stayed At Home For A Century, When I Emerged I Was Invincible

Chapter 149: Xiang Xing, Crimson Bones

Under the blessing of the Sagemaster’s Halo, Su Xian’er and the others were all immersed in a state of comprehension.

It was not difficult to grasp the basics of array formations.

After the explanation was finished, everyone achieved their own level of mastery.

Chu Xuan passed the complete Heaven-reaching Sword technique to Ding Yue. He had originally wanted to wait until Ding Yue broke through to the Heaven realm before teaching him the full technique, but with Ding Yue’s recent achievements in Sword Dao comprehension allowed him to do this in advance.

It was the same for Wang Luo.

Su Xian’er and Ding Yue returned to the pocket dimension and tried to set up their own array formations.

Wang Luo stayed behind.

He had gained some new insights into how to use the array formations to help refine pills, and even how to refine array formations into pills, transforming pills into weapons that could kill enemies.

Chu Xuan was rather appreciative of his ideas and took the time to explain more about the use of array formations and restrictions.

Wang Luo then went back into the pocket dimension to comprehend Chu Xuan’s teachings.

“Pingfan, have you gained any insights?”

Chu Xuan looked at Chu Pingfan and asked.

Chu Pingfan’s talent was unique. Although he looked dull and stupid, he was not a stupid person.

How could a person with the talent to cultivate the Extreme Dao be stupid?

“I gained some insights. The saber rises and falls. The saber is my array, the array is my saber, and everything is my saber!”

Chu Pingfan nodded his head.

“Is there anything you don’t understand?”

Chu Xuan rubbed his head.

“A little.”

“Talk to me about it.”

After Chu Xuan clarified some of Chu Pingfan’s doubts, the latter returned to the universe space to ponder his insights.

“You have been a shut-in for ten years and three days. You have been rewarded with a box of heavenly mystery pills.”

Heavenly mystery pills were Heaven realm cultivation pills. The system was generous, and had given him an entire box of the stuff.

After his body underwent the transformation and turned into the Indestructible Chaos Body, Chu Xuan’s consumption of the heavenly mystery pills increased. His new consumption rate was no longer calculated by the number of pills, but by the number of bottles.

Su Xian’er and the other two were in the pocket dimension and universe space, comprehending arrays and restrictions. They each had their own understanding of how to use them in battle.

Wang Luo was refining special pills. Not only did he use spirit herbs as materials, but he also used various materials to engrave arrays into the pills.

His medicinal pill was an array formation.

Ding Yue used the Heaven-reaching Sword technique as the foundation to create his sword array formation.

Su Xian’er also used her own insights to create her own applications of array formations.

Chu Xuan was very happy. As expected of his maidservant and disciples. Their talent had indeed left him speechless, but they could not have achieved this without his own guidance.

The Sagemaster’s Halo naturally played a great role.

Chu Pingfan had been practicing his saber all this time. When he pulled his saber out, it seemed as if there was a large array attached to it. Although it was not perfect, it was a good start and a foundation for future attainments.

Attaching the array to the saber was only one of the offensive means that Chu Pingfan possessed. His true strength still lay in the Extreme Dao killing techniques he had mastered.

It was not an easy thing to fuse array formations with Extreme Dao killing techniques. At the very least, the current Chu Pingfan was not capable of doing so.

Another three months passed.

Chu Xuan’s strength continued to increase. He would soon reach the third level of the Heaven realm.

Outside Chu County, a figure was lying on a desolate mountain.

The clothes on his body were tattered and torn. His entire body was charred black, emitting a scorched smell.

His hair was actually emitting white smoke.

Xiang Xing opened his eyes and examined the condition of his body. He could not help but let out a sigh.

It was happening again.

Every time it happened, it felt worse than death.

This time, he was exploring the ruins of some ancient sect with someone. Unexpectedly, he was ambushed and almost died. Then, his strange illness also flared up. He thought he was dead for sure.

He only remembered that, at the last moment, he used his treasured armor to block the fatal blow and accidentally activated an unknown ancient array formation in the ancient ruin. He then lost consciousness.

He struggled to sit up.

There were heavy injuries on his body, and his flesh was almost charred black. His mind and spiritual will had also suffered considerable injuries.

He wanted to take out medicinal pills to treat his injuries, but discovered that he had lost his storage bag somehow somewhere.

All that he had left was a small hammer that he had been nurturing in his dantian.

This was an artifact that he had personally forged. A hammer was what suited him best when it came to refining weapons.

However, without pills, how could he treat the injuries he had?

If he did not treat it, his cultivation foundation would be damaged, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

He looked around and discovered that he was on a small hill.

“Eh?”

Xiang Xing was startled. Why was the spiritual energy here so thin?

Where exactly was he?

He struggled to stand up, which worsened his injuries. At the same time, his bones suddenly emitted a scorching aura that was like fire.

Xiang Xing’s expression changed. Could it be that the strange illness was about to flare up again?

Given his current condition, if the strange illness flared up now, he would definitely not be able to endure it.

No!

He could not just sit here and wait for death.

Clenching his teeth, he staggered to his feet. The scorching heat from his bones became even stronger, as if they were being burned by fire.

“Ah!”

He could not help but let out a miserable cry!

A piece of the charred flesh on his finger had peeled off, revealing his finger bones. Xiang Xing discovered that his finger bones were actually crimson red.

It was as if there was a flame burning inside!

“What exactly is going on?”

Xiang Xing understood that the strange illness he had contracted was related to the crimson state of his bones. However, he did not know what kind of strange disease this was.

He racked his head and searched his memories for knowledge from the ancient records, but still could not find the answer.

The Xiang family was not some minor family. It had a long history and was very powerful. There was even a Heaven realm expert in the family.

It was also an aristocratic family that specialized in refining artifacts.

He was an illegitimate son and, when he became of age, his talent was tested by the family’s elders.

They did not know what his strange illness was either, but rumors about it spread among the family, with many calling it ominous. As a result, he had always been discriminated against.

He had been ostracized and despised by his peers; he was called the Xiang family’s monster for as long as he could remember.

Xiang Xing looked at the crimson finger bones and squatted down with his hands on his head. He recalled the ostracism and disdain he had been subjected to since he was young. He had suffered all kinds of humiliation, and was not liked by the family’s elders either.

He had not received any cultivation resources from the family. Everything he had was earned by him personally. Even among all the illegitimate children in the family, he was ranked at the bottom.

The healing pills he had with him were gone. All he had left was a small hammer that he had refined himself. It was unable to solve his urgent problem.

Even walking had become a problem.

Xiang Xing realized sadly that he might not be able to survive this calamity. He would die in this unknown place.

From today onward, the Xiang family’s monster would be gone forever.

Xiang Xing could not help but cry.

Since he was young, he had always been stubborn. He had never admitted defeat and never shed tears.

This time, he cried. It was as if he wanted to vent all his despair, all his unwillingness, grief and anger before he died.

As he cried bitterly, some of the charred flesh on his body continued to peel off, revealing the crimson bones underneath.

They glowed like red-hot iron and emitted a scorching aura.

His fleshly body seemed to be melting under the scorching aura emitted by his bones. The intense pain caused him to almost lose consciousness.

“This time, I’m really going to die!”

If he had not suffered such a serious injury, and if he still had the precious healing medicine, Xiang Xing would not have lost all hope. He would have been confident in his ability to survive this calamity.

However, he had been left with nothing. There was no one around to help him in this desolate place. He could not even move his feet.

Xiang Xing tapped his bare bones. The bones that were exposed let out a crisp sound. The grass and trees that touched the bones were instantly burned up.
