9: C9 Meeting(1)

C9 Meeting(1)

Chu Kuangsheng retracted his gaze and turned his head to look. Coincidentally, he saw Chu Liuer leaning against the door with a pale face.

"Brother, your strength?" Chu Liuer hesitated for a moment and asked in disbelief.

"I have been taken care of by elder sister for so many years. I need some strength to protect elder sister." Chu Kuangsheng smiled faintly and said.

Seeing that he did not have any intention to say more, Chu Liuer did not continue to ask. She only smiled gently and said with relief, "My Kuangsheng... has really grown up."

Chu Kuangsheng smiled slightly and gave a few instructions before leaving the courtyard and heading out of the Chu family.

Now, he needed to find some perseverance to raise his strength to the Spirit Pattern Stage Rank Six.

If not, given Chu Qing's insidious character, he might really kill him in the gambling match one month later.

"Young master is really amazing!" Although Yun'er's expression wasn't very good, when he thought of the scene just now, he was still incomparably delighted.

Chu Liuer rubbed her head and gave a light smile, her expression was filled with gratification.

Although she did not know why this younger brother of hers suddenly possessed such strength. But it was still something to be happy about.

"My brother should be the best." She looked at Chu Kuangsheng's back as he left and Nan Nan muttered to herself.

...

"He should be around here." In a mountain forest in the outer region of Stone Sun Town, Chu Kuangsheng looked up and said.

In the past, when he was hunting fierce beasts in this mountain forest, he had encountered that spiritual herb. However, the herb was still in its infancy at that time. Even if he plucked it, it would be useless.

However, a few years had passed. If that spiritual herb was still there, it should be of use.

Chu Kuangsheng's figure dashed and searched for the location of the spiritual herb in his memory. Along the way, he encountered some fierce beasts as he had expected.

However, these ferocious beasts that had been extremely troublesome to deal with in his eyes could be easily dealt with at this moment. Hence, he did not waste any time.

"As expected."

In a wetland by the lake, Chu Kuangsheng found a spiritual herb flickering with a purple light among the numerous plants. Immediately, he ran over with a joyful expression on his face.

When he got closer, he discovered that this purple spiritual herb was much thicker than a few years ago. The aura it emitted was also much purer.

This herb was called the Purple Spiritual Herb. It contained a mysterious energy that could increase the speed of a Spirit Pattern Stage cultivator's breakthrough.

However, there was something strange about this herb. Without ten years of age, it wouldn't have any effect at all. Moreover, it was extremely fragile. Generally speaking, even if there were a hundred stalks of Purple Spirit Grass, it would be very difficult for one to grow for ten years.

Therefore, this thing was extremely precious to Spirit Pattern Stage cultivators.

"This Purple Spirit Grass should be around seven years old." Chu Kuangsheng revealed an excited expression. If someone else encountered a Purple Spirit Grass that was less than ten years old, they would probably choose to give it up.

However, he was different. With the help of the Purple Soil in the ancient tree's space, he could cultivate it into a Purple Spirit Grass that was comparable to ten years old in the shortest amount of time.

Just as Chu Kuangsheng was about to pluck the Purple Spirit Grass, his eyes suddenly flashed. His gaze passed the wetland in front of him and looked towards the lake not far away.

There seemed to be a corpse floating there. Judging from its body, it seemed to be a woman.

Chu Kuangsheng frowned. Out of curiosity, he still walked over.

"This woman doesn't seem to be dead?" He looked at the center of the lake. He could vaguely feel that the woman was still breathing.

Chu Kuangsheng scanned his surroundings. He hesitated for a moment before smiling helplessly.

"Consider yourself lucky!"1

He muttered to himself, then jumped into the lake and swam towards the woman. After struggling for a while, he finally rescued the woman from the lake and carried her to a cave nearby.

"What a beautiful woman." Chu Kuangsheng looked at the woman in front of him and couldn't help but exclaim.

"She seems to have been poisoned."

Chu Kuangsheng glanced at the girl's purple and black lips, then at the girl's lower abdomen.

About an inch above the girl's navel, there was a purple-black wound, and a pungent smell came from it.

"The snake venom of the black-scaled snake!"

Chu Kuangsheng said with a shocked expression. In his previous life, his skill in alchemy was superb, and he was unrivalled under the heavens. Therefore, he was also very familiar with these poisonous snakes.

Once this kind of snake venom was infected, even a Nine Cauldron Stage expert's life would be in danger.

Those above the Spirit Pattern Stage would need to undergo the baptism of the Divine Sacrifice. They would need to refine the Realm Tower and become a Tower Transforming Stage expert.

Those above the Tower Transforming Stage were Pulse Opening Stage, and those above that were powerful Nine Cauldron Stage.

Such a powerful warrior was considered one of the top combat strength even in a powerful force like the Four Spirit Academy, and had the qualification to seal the border and split the earth.

"I'm afraid this girl's background isn't simple." Chu Kuangsheng's eyes sparkled. His current strength was too weak. If he was dragged into the conflict between Nine Cauldron Stage experts, he wouldn't even know how he would die.

Thinking of this, he had already decided to leave.

However, right at this moment, the girl slowly opened her eyes. When she saw him, she immediately revealed a vigilant look. She moved her body backwards and leaned against the mountain wall.
