30. You Need To Do Something

"I... why did I regress?" Huangpu Jing's expression drastically changed.

She had finally reached the peak of the Qi Creation Realm.

She thought that under Chen Xuan's guidance, she would be able to take another step forward, entering the Manifestation Realm, becoming the strongest of her generation among the four major families.

But now, not only had she not progressed, she had regressed.

She could clearly feel the energy within her body rapidly draining from somewhere.

Could it be him?

At this moment, Huangpu Jing wanted to escape, but how could she possibly run from someone as powerful as Chen Xuan?

For a brief moment, she felt as though she saw her deceased great-grandfather beckoning to her!

The fear of death gradually eroded her rationality, consuming her emotions.

[Ding, Huangpu Jing generates fear and despair, emotion value +100]

Fear and despair already? Let me give you some hope!

Chen Xuan stopped using the Yin-Yang Energy Absorption technique and instead began channeling the Blissful Dual Cultivation method.

Huangpu Jing's eyes widened.

To her surprise, her strength was accumulating rapidly again, increasing at a fast pace.

What is going on?

[Ding, Huangpu Jing generates emotions of relief and confusion, emotion value +100]

Chen Xuan said calmly, "What's the panic? This is called slow accumulation, leading to a massive breakthrough."

"I'm sorry, I was reckless," Huangpu Jing quickly apologized.

A slight smile appeared on Chen Xuan's lips.

Then, he resumed using the Yin-Yang Energy Absorption technique, wildly drawing out the energy within Huangpu Jing through a special method.

In an instant, she dropped back to the Heavenly Yuan stage.

Having learned from earlier, Huangpu Jing was no longer panicked.

She accepted it calmly because she believed her strength would return and even improve.

Thus, she let her guard down and began enjoying the rise and fall of her power.

However, she was unaware that this was exactly what Chen Xuan intended.

He wanted her to alternate between hope and despair, until she was utterly crushed.

Chen Xuan took the energy he had absorbed and condensed it into Nirvana Qi using the Yin-Yang technique, pushing himself toward the sixth-level Nirvana stage.

As time passed, Huangpu Jing fell to the Earth Yuan stage.

Before long, the energy within her body had completely disappeared.

At this moment, Huangpu Jing panicked.

But it was too late!

She had become an ordinary person, with not a shred of energy left inside her.

Huangpu Jing, shocked and pale, stammered, "I... why do I have no energy left?"

"Your energy has become mine!" Chen Xuan stood up slowly, feeling a rush of satisfaction from his completed revenge.

Huangpu Jing, unable to believe it, paled even more. Her voice trembled, "What... what did you just say?"

She had trained for so many years, hailed as a genius by her family and the entire Great Yan Dynasty.

Now, not only had she lost her virginity, but all her energy had been stolen as well, leaving her as nothing but a shell.

How could she possibly accept this?

Chen Xuan coldly said, "You're now nothing more than a cripple, unable to cultivate."

"You... you're a demonic cultivator?"

"What nonsense. Killing a person demands repayment in kind. Justice must be served!"

"You're lying! We've never met before, and I've never killed anyone unjustly!"

Huangpu Jing was on the verge of losing her mind.

[Ding, Huangpu Jing generates madness, anger, and confusion, emotion value +150]

Chen Xuan sneered, "Fine, I'll make it clear for you. If you hadn't insisted on inviting Ling Qingzhu to the Great Yan Dynasty, she wouldn't have been defiled, and I wouldn't have been cuckolded! So, it's all your fault!"

"What? You are..."

Before she could finish, Chen Xuan waved his hand, sending out a powerful force that struck her down, killing her instantly.

Seeing this, Lin Ke'er trembled uncontrollably in fear, her eyes filled with a faint blue glow of terror.

[Ding, Lin Ke'er generates fear, emotion value +50]

Chen Xuan felt nothing in response to her fear.

In fact, he even felt a bit excited.

He turned his gaze toward Lin Ke'er, devoid of any sympathy.

"P-Please... spare me! I don't even know Ling Qingzhu."

Terror painted Lin Ke'er's face.

[Ding, Lin Ke'er generates fear and panic, emotion value +100]

Chen Xuan shook his head. "But it was you who brought Lin Dong to the Tianyab Mountains! Besides, I'm fair. Huangpu Jing's energy is already mine; I can't be biased."

"No... no..."

"Hahaha, you're saying no now, but soon you'll be begging me to continue!"

"You—"

…

Before long, that unsettling sound once again filled the area.

An hour later, Chen Xuan's mental energy cultivation had risen to the level of a Five-Seal Symbol Master, nearly matching his energy cultivation!

Looking at Lin Ke'er, who lay limp on the ground, Chen Xuan said, "Honestly, compared to Huangpu Jing, your crimes are lighter. I can't bear to see you die before me."

"0.0" Lin Ke'er, like a walking corpse, slowly turned her head to glance at Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan sighed, stood up, and turned his back to her.

In the next moment, an immense mental force condensed into an arrow, piercing through Lin Ke'er's chest.

"As long as I don't see it, I won't feel bad!" With that, Chen Xuan's figure shot off into the distance like lightning.

…

Meanwhile, in an ancient square, an ancient monument stood, exuding an eternal, unyielding aura.

This was the Monument of Manifestation Arts.

At that moment, ten figures sat cross-legged on the mats in front of the monument—members of the Lin and Huangpu families.

With Mu Shi's help, Lin Langtian had acquired a Manifestation Level martial art, the Eight Desolations Emperor's Hand!

The others only managed to obtain Ninth-tier martial arts at best.

This inflated Lin Langtian's pride.

He suggested, "Since we're already here, shouldn't we aim for the sect's treasure as well?"

"No! The treasure is guarded by a powerful beast. With our numbers, we can't possibly defeat it."

The Huangpu family elder immediately rejected the idea, deeming it too risky.

Lin Fan frowned. "Are you really willing to let that treasure slip through our fingers?"

"Well…"

The Huangpu elder was at a loss for words.

Lin Fan continued, "We have the advantage in numbers. If we work together, we can surely defeat that beast!"

Moved by his impassioned speech, the Huangpu family decided to take a risk and try.

The two families' experts soared into the air and, working together, cracked open the stone square, revealing a rift.

"Roar!"

A blood-red beam of light shot out from the rift, followed by a terrifying roar from ancient times, sending shivers down their spines.

Everyone hesitated.

Should they proceed?

At that moment, a white figure appeared before them.

It was Chen Xuan.

Seeing him, everyone froze in fear.

Chen Xuan glanced at the Lin family members.

"The treasure below... I'll let you have it, but you need to do something for me."
