The next morning, Su Chen was half asleep when he suddenly heard Kong Miaoyin's voice.
"Three months later, the ancient miracle will open at the Eastern Fence Border and Northern Sea Crossing. If you have made your decision, come to the Peacock Sea two days earlier."
Su Chen sat up in shock, thinking that Kong Miaoyin had come. However, he didn't see her at all.
"Don't look, I am still in the Peacock Sea."
Kong Miaoyin's voice came again.
Su Chen swallowed his saliva and was amazed. The Peacock Sea was millions of miles away from the Northern Xuan Continent. Kong Miaoyin was actually able to accurately find him from such a distance. She was even able to transmit her voice to him. This ability was too powerful.
The Sea of Reincarnation Realm was indeed fascinating!
"Okay, Miaoyin, I will be there as promised."
"Brat, what did you call me!" Kong Miaoyin said with slight anger.
"Miaoyin, Little Miaomiao, Little Yinyin, I will call you whatever I want. Come and hit me!" Su Chen said shamelessly.
"Buzz …"
A strange buzzing sound rang in Su Chen's ears. He couldn't help but shiver for a moment before he couldn't hear Kong Miaoyin's voice anymore.
Haha, she is angry!
In the entire Eastern Fence Sea Region, he was probably the only one who dared to tease Kong Miaoyin like this.
After calming himself down, Su Chen muttered, "There are still three months. I have to hurry up and cultivate."
Su Chen had just broken through the Initial Nine Tribulations not long ago. Although it was unrealistic to break through the Final Nine Tribulations in three months, as long as he focused on cultivation, his strength would more or less increase.
After getting up and putting on his clothes, Su Chen found Mu Xiangxue, who was planting flowers, and asked, "Do you have any powerful cultivation techniques?"
"Didn't you empty the Bear Origin Continent's Scripture Pavilion?"
"They are all trash. They are not worthy for me to cultivate."
Mu Xiangxue blushed with shame. She thought for a moment and said, "I do have a cultivation technique passed down in my family, but it requires the Saintly Hundred-Flower Physique to cultivate. Master, you can't learn it."
"No problem. Teach it to me first."
Su Chen never cared about the limitations of his physique and bloodline.
Mu Xiangxue put down the plants in her hands and returned to the bamboo house with Su Chen. She sat down and said, "My family's cultivation method is called 'Withering'. It's been passed down from generation to generation. It's said that our Mu family once had a Saint, but I don't know if it's true. However, this' Withering Secret Art 'is indeed very powerful. It's to the point that the cultivators in our family don't dare to cultivate it."
Withering?
The name sounded a little strange.
"If the flower withers, isn't that a dead end?"
Mu Xiangxue nodded. "That's right. This technique requires one to burn their life force in order to use it. If one doesn't use it properly, it's very easy to bring about one's own destruction. You can't use it too often. The more you use it, the faster you'll die."
A cultivation technique that could only be used by burning one's life force?
That was indeed not something that ordinary people would dare to cultivate.
However, this cultivation technique might be suitable for Su Chen. After all, he has the Soul Devour skill. He can devour other people's souls to replenish his life force. The price of burning one's life force is very severe for ordinary people. However, as long as he can find a suitable replenishment, he can occasionally use it.
"I want to learn it. Teach it to me." Su Chen said firmly.
"I can. However, master, you can't blame me if there's any problem. The best use of this cultivation technique is to save one's life."
After saying that, Mu Xiangxue took out a scroll made of gold leaf and handed it to Su Chen.
"I'll give it to you. I'm the only one left in our family. There's no need for this cultivation technique to be passed down."
"Good girl!"
Su Chen hugged Mu Xiangxue's small waist. He leaned forward and kissed her. Then, he returned to his room to study the scroll.
After looking at it for four hours, he finally activated the skill.
"Emperor rank. It's actually an Emperor rank skill!"
The second Emperor rank skill was in his hands!
Su Chen carefully looked at the Withering skill's introduction.
Withering had a total of five layers. It required three million skill points to reach the max level. After activating Withering at the max level, it would burn a hundred years of life force every minute, increasing one's strength by a large amount.
Spirit power, strength, speed, and various elemental resistances would all increase by ten times!
"Good skill!"
Su Chen was overjoyed.
Last time when he fought with Meng Wuliang, Su Chen was clear on his biggest weakness.
Although his battle strength was very strong, the most fatal point was that he lacked a true life saving method.
Powerful cultivators would often leave behind one or two trump cards. For example, Meng Wuliang's Wild Dragon Sword Talisman.
At the crucial moment, these trump cards would be the key to victory.
However, with this technique, Withering, when Su Chen encountered an enemy of equal strength, he could burn his life force to obtain a temporary increase in strength.
Increasing one's strength by ten times in one minute was enough to change many things.
Moreover, Withering was a life saving skill that others couldn't use unless they were absolutely dead. However, for Su Chen who had the Soul Devouring Technique, as long as he had enough life force, he could even use it as a normal skill.
A powerful life saving killing move as a normal skill was terrifying just thinking about it.
Looking at the remaining three million skill points, Su Chen didn't say anything and waved his hand to max out Withering.
"Let's give it a try … Forget it. One minute is a hundred years of life. I can't afford to waste it now."
In the blink of an eye, three months passed.
In these three months, Su Chen almost never left the Supreme Wu Courtyard. He spent most of his time cultivating, constantly tempering the spirit power in his Knowledge Sea, tempering his physique, nourishing his Divine Sense, and strengthening his soul.
In order to maintain his condition, Su Chen didn't even touch Mu Xiangxue and Liu Yue.
Restraint and patience were also a kind of cultivation.
After three months of secluded cultivation, Su Chen was finally going to embark on his journey again.
After bidding farewell to everyone, Su Chen unfolded the Wind Lightning Fire Wings and flew directly to the Peacock Sea.
One day later, Su Chen arrived at the Peacock Sea's Thousand Fiend City. As soon as he arrived at the city gate, he saw a beautiful woman looking around.
"Little Brother Chen!"
Kong Lingxuan saw Su Chen and jumped up in joy, ignoring the gazes of others.
Su Chen hugged Kong Lingxuan and spun her around, saying, "One day apart feels like three years. Sister Xuan, I miss you very much."
"Don't talk, kiss me!"
Kong Lingxuan said.
Su Chen blushed with shame. There were so many people coming and going at the city gate. Sister Xuan, you're playing too big!
However, how could Su Chen neglect a beautiful woman's request? The two immediately kissed in front of everyone's eyes.
"Cough cough …"
Kong Miaoyin suddenly appeared beside the two.
Kong Lingxuan was startled and quickly took two steps back. She tidied her dress and said, "Mother."
Kong Lingxuan nodded slightly and said to Su Chen, "Let's go. The Primordial Godly Ruin will open tomorrow. We must hurry. Little Xuan, stay at home quietly and wait for news."
"Yes, Mother."
