Chapter 647: Chapter 647: You Truly Make Your Master Proud!
Upon hearing Qianxun’s words, Huo Tianzun’s gaze deepened, and then he looked at Qianxun and said, "You also participated in the making of this Defensive Clothing, didn’t you? Did you use a lot of Spiritual Energy?" Otherwise, her face wouldn’t be so pale.
He cursed himself for being too busy these days to ask her what she had been up to.
Otherwise, he would never have allowed her to deplete her Spiritual Energy so recklessly.
Seeing Huo Tianzun’s profound gaze, Qianxun immediately responded with a relaxed expression, "It wasn’t much, and besides, it’s not like before, when Spiritual Energy could only be replenished with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. My popularity points are constantly being converted into Spiritual Energy for me, I’m not lacking in the slightest bit of Spiritual Energy, you don’t have to worry about me."
Although Qianxun said this, Huo Tianzun knew that things were not as simple as she made them out to be.
"Not allowed to do this ever again!" Huo Tianzun didn’t pursue the matter further but just held Qianxun in his arms and said.
"I know, I’m really fine. With the release of ’Painted Skin,’ I’ve harvested a large number of fans! I’m not worried about Spiritual Energy at all now!" Qianxun said with a beaming smile.
Although Jade Glaze was something left behind by that scoundrel Mo Tianji, it was still very useful to her now.
Even if Huo Tianci found out her true identity later on, she wouldn’t return the Jade Glaze to him.
...
Meanwhile, at White Cloud Temple.
After learning about the fire in his room, Huo Tianci rushed back immediately.
Fortunately, the fire was extinguished on time, and he had also set up fireproof Arrays around the painting, so many of his notes were burned, but the most important things were still intact.
But Huo Tianci did not believe that this fire was an accident.
However, no matter how much he investigated, he couldn’t find the slightest clue. The young Taoist who was supposed to be on night watch next door did indeed go off to slack and left many flammable yellow papers near the incense, so Huo Tianci could only treat it as an accident.
Inside the Scripture Pavilion.
Huo Tianci was currently browsing through some of the ancient texts of the temple.
In his mind, Mo Tianji was saying, "It’s this very book, you still refuse to believe, but see for yourself. If you continue down the path of cultivation you are on now, by the last step, you will suffer from deviant flames and be paralyzed, unable to move. Then, it will be the perfect time for Taoist Qingyang to seize your body!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Tianci closed the book he held and said in a cold voice, "No need to say more!"
Right now, he thoroughly detested the Mo Tianji hiding inside him!
But the other party was fused with his soul, so he was not even considered an external invader; therefore, he was unable to drive him out!
...
Shortly afterwards, Huo Tianci returned the book in his hand to the shelf and picked up another book before leaving.
Just after he stepped out, he happened to encounter Taoist Qingyang. Seeing him holding a book of magic techniques, Taoist Qingyang immediately asked, "Tianci, how is your cultivation going recently?"
Hearing this, Huo Tianci’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he replied with his usual indifferent demeanor, "Hmm, I’ve already reached the Second Level, and I should be able to break through to the Third Level soon."
At these words, Taoist Qingyang’s eyes flashed with excitement, and he exclaimed, "Wonderful, wonderful! My disciple, you indeed have extraordinary talent, you are the pride of your master! Keep it up, and if there’s anything you don’t understand, just come ask me, understand?"
He just had to wait until Huo Tianci reached the Third Level, and then he could start the Body Seizing process!
By that time, he would be able to abandon this old and decrepit body and gain a new one that was fresh and with exceptional qualifications, living another two hundred years!
