White-Robed Chief

‘I finally found it!’

Chu Li let out a sigh of relief. He wanted to have a hearty laugh so badly. This was the most essential step! It was like searching for a needle in a haystack, and he had finally found it!

He was worried that Narrowed World was just a fantasy because the theory had not been passed over to the next generation. Eventually, it was phased out over time but it must have had its own reasons. The theory either never made sense, or no one had ever successfully cultivated it.

Now he saw the black spot. It was the finest of acupuncture points.

After breaking the acupuncture point, Chu Li was able to find the finest of voids. Which meant that he could complete the cultivation of the Narrowed World.

He stood up and passed through the Moonlight Gate into the garden, and turned around.

By drowning out the feeling of happiness he returned to a state of serenity. Then, he walked back into the courtyard and began to meditate again.

Chu Li found the black spot in no time. He gathered his now spouting inner energy to his center and continuously accumulated, squeezed, and purified until it became pulsing with pure energy.

The inner energy rushed out of his energy center and circulated corresponding with the unique heart technique. Every cycle purified his inner energy a little more and after three full cycles, the gushing inner energy formed into a thin thread, much like silk and gently flew into the black spot.

‘Boom!’ Chu Li heard an explosion. Everything around him was shaking.

He activated the Omniscient Mirror to stabilize himself so that he would be awoken from his cultivation.

Chu Li channeled the Infinite Azure Sea. The spiritual force came to him from all directions and circulated along the Infinite Azure Sea which then went into his energy center. After that, the spiritual force continued to circulate along the Narrowed World’s using the Unique Heart technique, turning into a delicate thread and nudged into the black spot again.

Chu Li suddenly understood why people could not successfully cultivate this. Even if one was an innate master, it would be impossible for them to prepare for the process of cultivation again in such a long time, they would be tired and worn out after just one strike. How could they break the acupuncture of the void?

‘Boom!’ Chu Li heard another explosion and everything around him was shaking once more in an attempt to push him out of his meditation.

This did not phase him even a little. Once again, he stabilized his meditation and continued from where he left off.

After some time, it all of a sudden became bright in front of him. Boundless stars entered his eyes followed by the sound of an explosion. It was an endless void in front of him. There were so many stars that even his heart had started to expand and become infinitely huge.

In a daze, Chu Li realized that he had successfully broken the acupuncture of the void. He was stepping into the door of the Narrowed World.

Chu Li opened his eyes as his state of mind shifted. Then immediately disappeared and then reappeared again on the other side of the Moonlight Gate in the garden. It was as though he had broken the restrictions of space itself, reaching places in a split second without any action.

Chu Li had already surpassed speed itself. However, as long as his state of mind continued to move, his body would continue to move too. If his mind could reach it, he would arrive right after. The whole world was now narrowed into an inch wide gap.

It was impossible for Chu Li to hold back the smile on his face. He appeared on the other side as his body flashed. He blinked, moved and appeared once more as he blinked again, it was as though he was a mirage. Chu Li used the Narrowed World as he looked at himself.

Although it was indeed fast, it consumed a lot of Chu Li’s inner energy. Even innate masters could not have handled it for long. Chu Li estimated that normal innate masters could only run for two miles and that would be it.

The further the step, the more of his inner energy it would have consumed. He flashed through the flower garden, and even though it was only a distance of about thirty meters, the amount of inner energy consumed was enough for him to levitate a thousand meters typically.

Chu Li could not control his smile. To everyone else, the Narrowed World was a trump card to be used when they were in extreme danger. Even with the help of the Energy Pill, continuous usage of the Narrowed World was impractical. One could only use it twice at most and would have to figure out how to escape if it did not end up working.

Chu Li had the ability to recuperate using the spiritual force of the lush grasses. He only needed to avoid going to the deserts. Places with lush greenery offered him an endless amount of spiritual force which meant that he would never lack inner energy.

Chu Li raised his head slowly to look at the sky and realized that it was already midnight. The moon in the sky was like a wheel made of ice, slowly spinning, disseminating a silk-like moonlight. It truly was a beautiful night.

He had finally completed the cultivation of the Narrowed World. This was incredibly fortuitous. The Life and Death Scripture and the Omniscient Mirror were indispensable. No wonder even someone like Xiao Yueling could not cultivate it, the Narrowed World was not for humans!

Chu Li suddenly furrowed his brow and looked towards Chen Siyu’s courtyard. He activated the Omniscient Mirror.

Xu Zhichun’s face was flushed a beet red. His fierce eyes were burning bright. He looked as though he was drunk, but not completely intoxicated. His mind was still clear and his chest was puffed up just as if he feared nothing in this world.

He went into Chen Siyu’s courtyard and knocked on the door. Jiang Chunyue Er opened the door and saw Xu Zhichun. She was startled.

“Elder Master Xu?” she exclaimed in surprise.

“Where’s Lady Chen Siyu?” he asked.

“Elder Master Xu, the Lady is currently sleeping.”

“I want to go in and have a look.”

“Elder Master Xu…” Jiang Chunyue Er felt helpless as she looked at him. She stood in front of the door and had no intention of moving to the side.

Xu Zhichun looked serious.

“I have something important to share with Lady Chen Siyu, get off!” he said coldly.

“Elder Master Xu, it’s already late. Can’t you just talk to her tomorrow?” Jiang Chunyue Er asked while shaking her head.

“Lady Chen Siyu hasn’t been sleeping well these days. It’s quite rare that she’s sleeping now,” she added.

“Who do you think you are to dare to stop me?” Xu Zhichun squinted his eyes at her. His gaze was burning bright, like two swords that pierced right into Jiang Chunyue Er’s eyes.

Jiang Chunyue Er bit her lower lip and her small delicate face turned pale, but she was still determined not to move aside.

Xu Zhichun took a large step to the front. His large frame formed huge vigor. Jiang Chunyue Er had bit her lips to the point where it had begun to bleed, but she still stood firm.

“Jiang Chunyue Er, let Elder Master Xu come in!” Chen Siyu’s voice came ringing from the main hall.

” Lady…” Jiang Chunyue Er tilted her head.

“Get out of the way!” Chen Siyu said.

“Very well.” Jiang Chunyue Er felt helpless and stepped aside.

Xu Zhichun broke into a smile. “Little kid, try to be like your Lady and understand your own duties!”

He entered into the main hall walking in large strides. He sat to the opposite of Chen Siyu and took in a whiff of Chen Siyu’s delicate fragrance. Xu Zhichun’s heart pounded and his urge to push her down to the floor got even stronger. He wanted to pull off her skin just as a wolf would do the same to a sheep.

Chen Siyu glared coldly at him.

“It’s late at night, may I know why father in law has visited me?” she asked.

“Hehe” Xu Zhichun looked at her white jade face. His eyes were on fire.

Chen Siyu felt worthless to him, with Xu Zhichun using his greedy gaze on her. She was coldly glaring at him.

Xu Zhichun suddenly burst out into laughter.

“Chen Siyu! Why do you need to force yourself to live like this? Dead people can’t come back to life, and Xu Qu Aoyunpeng is dead! You need to work out something else for yourself!”

“I do not need any of your concern!” Chen Siyu replied coldly.

“Just let me keep watch beside his coffin for three years and I’ll leave by myself!” she added.

“You want to leave this place?” asked Xu Zhichun with furrowed brows.

Chen Siyu remained silent.

Xu Zhichun expression soured. “Have I not treated you well?” he asked.

Chen Siyu kept her mouth shut.

Xu Zhichun stood up in a flash and asked in a loud voice, “Why do you want to leave!?”

“You know about this very well, father in law!” Chen Siyu stared indifferently at him.

“I don’t want to be judged and humiliated by the public. I just want to have a nice and good sleep. Perhaps you could have a little more self-respect!”

“Self-respect? Self-respect? Hahaha!” Xu Zhichun laughed wildly as he looked up at the sky. He suddenly made a move and attempted to pull Chen Siyu closer to his body.

However, Chen Siyu was already prepared. She jumped onto the chair and flipped her body over to dodge it.

Xu Zhichun laughed cruelly. Using his body movement technique, he moved to Chen Siyu’s back and reached out his arms in an attempt to hug and kiss her.

Chen Siyu drew a short sword from her robe and attacked Xu Zhichun.

Nevertheless, Xu Zhichun’s had an amazing mastery of the martial arts. He could still dodge it even though he was intoxicated.

Both of his eyes were glowing red with anger. He felt malevolent.

“Chen Siyu, you’ll never defeat me. Don’t even think that you can escape. Be my woman!”

He reached out his right hand and grabbed Chen Siyu’s wrists and touched her chest with his other hand.

Chen Siyu shifted the short sword she had in her left hand to her right. She pointed the blade right at Xu Zhichun’s neck.

“How dare you!” he bellowed.

Xu Zhichun grabbed her other hand, staring at her so strongly that it felt as if daggers were going right through her.

“You’d rather die than be my woman!?” he asked.

“Yes!” Chen Siyu scoffed.

“Good!”

Xu Zhichun bit his tongue and said his words clearly.

“You want to die? In your dreams! I’ll strike your acupuncture points and play with you till I’m bored!”

Chen Siyu bit her lower lip and glared at him.

Xu Zhichun shook both of his hands and Chen Siyu suddenly lost all her strength. A surge of inner energy rushed into her body. She could not muster any strength, and she felt her heart getting heavier.

‘Boom!’, a loud noise rang around the area. Chu Li appeared from the sky and landed behind Xu Zhichun. He used his palm to hit Xu Zhichun’s back, the impact created a sharp noise.

“You…you…” Xu Zhichun turned slowly and stared at Chu Li in disbelief.

Chu Li glared coldly at him. There was no point in taking pity on such a beast of a man.

Chen Siyu’s fragrant and soft body was trembling as she fell down.

Chu Li reached out his hand to grab her and channeled some of his inner energy to her.

The warmth of the spiritual force circulated around her body. It neutralized Xu Zhichun’s inner energy and unraveled the acupuncture. She felt as if she was soaking in the hot springs and was surrounded by warmth and comfort.
