Chapter Fifty-Three: Cultivation in the Fallen God Valley (Part One)

After everyone had left, only Yun Chuluo Bai and Yun Chuxue remained in place. Yun Chuluo Bai looked at Yun Chuxue with a smile, his eyes filled with longing.

"Xiaoxue, you're finally back. I've been looking for you for ten years. During these ten years, you've been missing without a trace. But how did you become Yu Shi's wife?" Yun Chuluo Bai asked with a tone of apology, smiling gently.

"Sorry for worrying you, Second Brother. I discovered some things that I wanted to deal with. As for how I became Yu Shi's wife, I'll tell you when we have time." Yun Chuxue replied with warmth and apology.

Yun Chuluo Bai noticed a change in Yun Chuxue's eyes when she mentioned "Yu Shi" but didn't inquire further.

"Xiaoxue, what are your plans now?" Yun Chuluo Bai asked.

"I plan to cultivate in the Fallen God Valley for a while. I hope you can tell Big Brother that I'm fine. I'll visit him when I have the time." Yun Chuxue answered.

"Alright, as long as you're safe. I've already arranged for the experts from the Yun Chuluo Palace to be at the mouth of the Fallen God Valley to assist you when you come out." Yun Chuluo Bai assured her.

Yun Chuxue chuckled helplessly, "Second Brother, who on this continent can kill me with my current strength?"

"Hahaha, don't flatter yourself," Yun Chuluo Bai laughed heartily, "I'll take my leave now."

"Alright."

After Yun Chuluo Bai left, Mo Qian's disdainful voice sounded from Su Xueer's spiritual sea, "Hmph, just you?"

Ignoring her, Su Xueer walked straight into the Fallen God Valley.

During the journey, Su Xueer asked, "I think you're behind this restriction."

"Smart. It was me. And that Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd, it's not something from your continent. Its power, I estimate, can only be fully unleashed when you surpass the Spiritual God realm." Mo Qian replied.

"What? Surpass the Spiritual God realm?" Su Xueer was astonished. "Once there was a person who practiced in the pinnacle of the Spiritual God realm for a hundred years and still couldn't surpass it. How is that possible?"

"That person was foolish. Don't disappoint me. I don't believe that even with the awakening of eight spiritual bodies, you can't surpass the Spiritual God realm." Mo Qian said indifferently.

Su Xueer waved her hand nonchalantly, "Let's talk about it later. Right now, I need to consolidate my swordsmanship..."

"Forget it," Mo Qian interrupted Su Xueer, "With your lackluster state of mind, why not study the Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd techniques instead?"

"Oh? Tell me about it." Su Xueer was intrigued.

"The Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd has five moves: Clear Water Lifting, Moon Song Dancing in the Sky, Blood Breaking Rampage, Heaven's Condemnation, and Devouring." Mo Qian instructed.

"What's Devouring?" Su Xueer asked, puzzled.

"Devouring means swallowing spiritual weapons above the divine level. You must find the Four Gods Artifacts and use the Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd to devour them. This way, the halberd can evolve." Mo Qian instructed.

Su Xueer contemplated for a moment, "Alright, if they don't give them to me, I'll just take them." Su Xueer looked smug, but Mo Qian looked down upon her.

As Su Xueer ventured deeper into the Fallen God Valley, she encountered a group of spirit beasts attacking. There were over a hundred of them, and Su Xueer had to exert a lot of effort to deal with them all.

Breathing heavily, Su Xueer asked, "Mo Qian, what's going on? I feel like my strength is still at the Spiritual Emperor realm."

"Although I lifted the restrictions on you, in the past, falling in realms was to save your life. This time, forcibly entering the Spiritual Saint realm has caused your current physical quality to fall short of the standard of the Spiritual Saint realm. So, now you need to consolidate your strength." Mo Qian explained.

"How long will it take?" Su Xueer asked with some concern.

"Five years, just five years. Kill all the spirit beasts in the Fallen God Valley. Don't leave a single one." Mo Qian replied.

Su Xueer widened her eyes in disbelief, "Mo Qian, are you crazy? Why do you want me to kill them?"

Mo Qian snorted, "Look at the spirit beasts in front of you, staring at you with hostile eyes. They may not be at fault, but not being at fault is the biggest fault. The Fallen God Valley is full of grievances, and these spirit beasts were hunted down by humans and forced to hide in this valley. Their minds have changed, consumed by evil thoughts. If, in another hundred years, there will be spirit beasts in the Fallen God Valley with nearly ten thousand years of cultivation, they will definitely break out and wreak havoc on the world. If you don't kill them, I will forcibly take over your body and slaughter them all."

Su Xueer pursed her lips and looked at the "innocent" spirit beasts in the distance, making up her mind. "Kill, as you wish," she said.

Mo Qian nodded in satisfaction. "Using the four moves of the Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd will help you master these powerful spiritual techniques much better than your previous passive approach," she said, her tone carrying a hint of disdain but speaking the truth.

Su Xueer took off her hood and cloak, then began indiscriminately slaughtering, wielding the Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd among the group of spirit beasts, turning everything in her path into blood.

She slaughtered the Silver Moon Wolf pack, which numbered in the thousands. Due to Mo Qian's suppression, their highest strength could only reach the pinnacle of the Spiritual Emperor realm for humans.

The wolf king wounded Su Xueer's back, staining it with blood, but she glared at the wolf king, leaped into the air, and swung the Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd.

"Moon Song Dancing in the Sky."

The area around the wolf pack was instantly shrouded in silver light, and a strike mixed within the light ended the wolf king's life without warning.

Afterwards, Su Xueer leaped into the middle of the wolf pack and with a single sweep, ended the lives of dozens of Silver Moon Wolves.

"Blood Breaking Rampage."

Su Xueer's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and after a moment, only a few wolves remained.

After eliminating the remaining Silver Moon Wolves, when she wanted to sit down and rest, she heard the roar of bears.

Following the sound, she saw a densely packed group of obese Stone Bears surrounding her.

The leader of the Stone Bears was the largest in size. It roared, and the surrounding Stone Bears began to attack Su Xueer.

As the bear group approached within ten steps of Su Xueer, she leaped into the air, holding the Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd with its blade pointing skyward, and shouted:

"Heaven's Condemnation."

Immediately, dark clouds filled the sky, and thunderous sounds erupted. Countless lightning bolts burst from the clouds and struck the ground. In an instant, hundreds of Stone Bears were killed.

The leader of the Stone Bears' pupils contracted in surprise. It roared loudly, and the surrounding Stone Bears took a step back. Su Xueer, with an arrogant expression, disdainfully said, "Just you?"

Just as the Stone Bear leader launched its attack, Su Xueer activated "Clear Water Lifting," already healing most of her injuries.

The Stone Bear leader rushed forward, swiping its claws at Su Xueer. She looked at the Stone Bear leader with contempt, lifted the Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd, and thrust it toward the bear.

The Stone Bear leader roared in pain, and Su Xueer withdrew the halberd, swung it at the bear's neck, and it fell to the ground.

Seeing their leader's death, the bear group did not flee but instead charged madly toward Su Xueer.

After a moment, the group of Stone Bears had been completely wiped out.

The ground was now dyed red with blood. Su Xueer panted heavily as she walked toward the nearby lake, disregarding the pain from her wounds, and leaped into the water.

After a quick wash, she emerged from the lake, her body soaked, revealing her slender waist and delicate features.

At that moment, a group of spirit masters, seeing Su Xueer emerge from the lake, couldn't help but swallow nervously.

One of them licked his lips and said to the leader, "Captain, should I go and capture her to serve you?"

The captain snapped out of his daze and replied, pretending to be serious, "Yes, go ahead."

"Alright, I'll go right away."

Su Xueer was still drying herself off and discussing with Mo Qian about digging a hole to change her clothes when she heard the harassing voice.

The henchman shouted loudly, "Hey, our captain finds your figure appealing and wants you to serve him for the night."

"What if I refuse?" Su Xueer sneered at the man and turned to leave.

Seeing Su Xueer ignoring him, the man charged at her with his sword drawn. "You have some nerve. If you won't yield to soft words, then you'll yield to force... Ah~"

Su Xueer pierced the man's abdomen with the Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd and kicked him next to the captain.

The captain angrily said, "Bold of you! How dare you hurt my man? Do you know who I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Su Xueer had already appeared next to him. "Speak, which faction are you from?"

"Shi... Shi Huo Sect."

Su Xueer snorted coldly. "Shi Huo Sect, I'll remember that."

The captain suddenly began to tremble because he recognized the weapon. "Qíng... Qíng Yuè Breaking Sky Halberd. Are you Su Xueer?"

"Correct. Now, you may die."

Before he could respond, Su Xueer began a merciless slaughter.

"No, please... Ah~"

"Ah~"

"..."

In no time, the members of the Shi Huo Sect were dealt with.
