Yue Qingzhu asked: "Did you find anything? Where is this place?"
Wu Chen shook his head and said, "It's not clear yet. This forest is quite large and there are many monsters in it."
Yue Qingzhu frowned. It seemed that the place they were teleported to this time was a bit far. Originally, she had controlled it very well. However, just when they were about to come out of the Taiyi Realm, Zhenren Wuji suddenly attacked them. Although the attack was intercepted by Zhenren Tianxing, its aftermath still had an impact on them, causing them to be caught in the space storm and teleported to an unknown place.
Wu Chen looked up at the sky. It was already dark and it was not suitable to travel any further. It would be better to rest here for a night first.
"Now, it's getting late. Let's rest here for the night and talk about it tomorrow morning. What do you think?"
Yue Qingzhu said: "I don't have any opinion, I'll listen to you."
Wu Chen looked at her again. She looked a little disheveled, with dust on her clothes. He said, "Just now I noticed that there is a stream about a hundred meters ahead. It's quite clear. Why don't you go there to wash yourself and change into clean clothes?"
"One hundred meters? OK, I'll go right away."
Yue Qingzhu didn't say anything. It is a girl's nature to love beauty and they all want to be clean.
"Go ahead. If anything happens, call me and I'll be there right away."
After walking through the jungle for about a hundred meters, Yue Qingzhu saw a stream. It seemed that this stream was the mountain stream that Wu Chen had mentioned.
After looking around and finding a relatively secluded place, Yue Qingzhu went down into the water and washed his body.
She had several sets of clothes in her storage ring, so she wasn't worried about that.
Half an hour later, Yue Qingzhu came out of the water, having changed into clean clothes, and returned to where she and Wu Chen had been before.
At this moment, Wu Chen had already lit the bonfire and was regulating his breathing with his eyes closed. When he sensed her return, he immediately opened his eyes.
"You're back?"
Wu Chen was relieved to see Yue Qingzhu return safely. Yue Qingzhu had been gone for more than half an hour, and he was indeed quite worried.
"Um."
Yue Qingzhu walked over slowly and sat down opposite Wu Chen. The firelight shot up into the sky, bringing warmth and dispelling the chill of the night.
“I wonder if there will be a moon tonight?”
Yue Qingzhu raised her head slightly and looked at the sky. The sky was dark without a single starlight. It seemed that the moon would hardly come out tonight.
"Why are you asking about the moon?" Wu Chen couldn't help but ask.
Yue Qingzhu replied: "I am a moon spirit body, I can absorb the essence of moonlight. With the moonlight, my injuries and strength will recover much faster."
"So that's how it is."
Wu Chen understood. He originally thought that Yue Qingzhu was just like Shun Yan, liking rain and moon, being quiet and doing nothing. However, he never thought that it was because Yue Qingzhu herself was a moon spirit body.
Indeed, the Moon Spirit Body is a special physique that can absorb the essence of the moonlight in the sky. For this physique, the moonlight has special benefits for them, which can speed up their practice, as well as the recovery of injuries and strength.
"Don't worry, I'm here. Even without moonlight, you will recover your strength soon."
Yue Qingzhu naturally knew that Wu Chen was an excellent doctor. Once, in the ancient mysterious battlefield space of their Tianxuan Holy Land, she was burned by the flames of the Hell Lotus and was almost dying. It was Wu Chen who cured her. Moreover, Wu Chen once won the championship of the Alchemist Conference, which was enough to prove his strength.
"By the way, Wu Chen, there is a question I have always wanted to ask you?"
"What?"
Yue Qingzhu asked, "How did you practice to make such rapid progress?"
She still remembered that two years ago, on the thousandth birthday of her master Linglong Xianzun, when Wu Chen first came to their Tianxuan Holy Land, his cultivation was only at the seventh level of the Zhenwu Realm. Later, he obtained the power of the Hell Lotus and was able to break through to the Xingji Realm. Now, he has broken through to the seventh level of the Xingji Realm, defeated Dugu Wudi, and won the championship of the Immortal Holy Land Exchange Conference. All these things seemed incredible to her, but Wu Chen really did it.
Wu Chen said: "It's a fortuitous encounter."
"An unexpected encounter?"
Yue Qingzhu frowned, feeling somewhat surprised by the result.
"Otherwise, how fast do you think we can improve by practicing hard to reach our level?"
Wu Chen rolled his eyes at her and said calmly.
Yue Qingzhu paused. Indeed, their current realm was already quite high, so the speed of cultivation had naturally slowed down. Even for someone with a special physique like her, the darling of heaven and earth, the speed had become much slower. It was not uncommon for a small realm to be stuck for several months.
In this situation, adventure becomes particularly important, which is why the sect encourages them to go out and practice. It is definitely not okay to always stay in the sect.
"You are really lucky."
Yue Qingzhu couldn't help but admire, everyone wanted to have an adventure, but not everyone could get it. Wu Chen could have so many adventures, which made people envious and jealous.
"Good luck?" Wu Chen sneered. His luck had never been good.
"What are you laughing at, aren't you?"
Wu Chen said: "You don't know, I had to fight hard almost every time I had an adventure. Take the one you know about, for example. You must also know why I was able to break through the Star Realm. The Hell Lotus is not so easy to refine. Even I was almost swallowed up by it."
Yue Qingzhu was shocked. Of course she knew how terrifying the Hell Lotus was. Even a strong man like Xuan Mo was attacked by the Hell Lotus and eventually died in the ancient mysterious battlefield space.
"You also know about that time in the Eastern Wasteland. I was thrown into a different dimension by the July Demon Lord. I spent a lot of effort to get out of the different dimension safely. If I could choose again, I would rather not go through all that, because if there is even the slightest mistake, I will be reduced to ashes and never be reborn."
Thinking back to what he had been through, Wu Chen felt a lingering fear. He really didn't know how he had managed to get through it.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Yue Qingzhu was a little unconvinced.
Wu Chen said: "This is definitely not an exaggeration. My experience was extremely dangerous and far exceeded your imagination."
