Chapter 6871 Raising a Helper

“Long Chen... you can help me break through? Really?” Xin Yu asked, disbelief written all over her face.

“I’ll be honest with you. Back in the nine heavens, I worked at a well-known academy, so you could say I was a teacher. While I’m not the strongest, I know a lot about cultivation techniques, magical arts, and divine abilities,” Long Chen replied.

After a brief pause, he continued, “If you trust me and don’t mind me seeing your Spirit Heart Sect’s secrets, show me your cultivation method. With my experience and some tools, like medicinal pills, I think I can help you reach the next realm.”

If anyone else had said this, Xin Yu would have slapped them for trying to trick her. Who would actually believe something like that?

Letting someone see your secret cultivation technique was a huge taboo, almost like betraying your master. Even as the divine daughter, Xin Yu couldn’t risk the consequences.

But for some reason, Long Chen had a charm that made her want to trust him completely.

Most importantly, she had seen it happen with Yan Li. In just three days, a nameless, broken person had completely changed and could now destroy an entire sect. If she hadn’t seen it herself, she wouldn’t have believed it.

Now that Long Chen said such a thing, Xin Yu couldn’t help but feel tempted.

“You can really help me break through? What do you want in return? Don’t tell me you want my body?” Xin Yu asked, her eyes widening.

While she didn’t question Long Chen’s ability, she did question his motives.

Rolling his eyes, Long Chen replied, “Don’t talk nonsense. I’m being serious. If I don’t help you advance, you can’t help me.”

“Ha, so I can get the reward before doing any work? Alright, then I’ll transmit the Spirit Heart Sect’s cultivation technique to you!” Xin Yu said excitedly.

She trusted Long Chen mostly because she was confident in herself. As the Spirit Heart Sect’s divine daughter, she was good at sensing other people’s feelings.

Although she had not done a close inspection of Long Chen, her instincts told her that he was far too proud to trick her like this.

People always paid the reward after the work was done, but Long Chen would give her the reward and then go to ask her for help. It was practically a blessing.

“Don’t transmit it to me. That will take too long. Just circulate your spirit heart energy and don’t block my senses,” instructed Long Chen.

“Then I’ll go handle my own affairs for now,” Chi Yutong said, wisely standing to leave.

However, Long Chen stopped her.

He said, “Yutong, wait over there for a moment. I should be done with this quickly. I have something to discuss with you as well.”

Chi Yutong obediently sat back down on the side. Meanwhile, Xin Yu was quite impatient and immediately formed hand seals.

A streak of light appeared.

Her essence rune flashed on her forehead, and countless translucent runes swirled around her.

It seemed as if she had merged with this world. Even though she was clearly here, sensing her presence was impossible.

These runes also surrounded Long Chen, highlighting that they did not reject him. Long Chen then performed one-handed seals.

Violet light gradually emanated from his body, blending with Xin Yu’s runes. Soon, the runes were all covered with this violet glow, giving them a more divine appearance.

“This aura...”

Chi Yutong covered her mouth in shock.

This violet qi... why does it resemble that legendary aura so much? Was Long Chen part of that legendary race?

“Try to break through,” Long Chen instructed.

Once Long Chen’s violet qi engulfed Xin Yu’s core runes, Xin Yu circulated her spirit heart power, and Long Chen immediately grasped its principles.

While Xin Yu understood she couldn’t break through, she followed Long Chen’s guidance and pushed for the breakthrough. A series of brilliant flashes appeared but quickly ceased.

Xin Yu grimaced in frustration and had no choice but to stop.

She had just made a breakthrough, so how could she continue to advance? If someone trained to lift a hundred pounds, how could they suddenly lift a thousand pounds? It seemed impossible. Yet, Long Chen asked her to demonstrate how she would do it. How would she overcome this bottleneck? What changes would happen at this moment?

Her effort to break through was like a small cat attempting to jump onto a thirty-meter platform. The cat leaped with all its might, but ended up in the same spot afterward, which was quite embarrassing.

“Aiya, this is so tiring!”

Xin Yu leaned back, sweating. This was too much. A normal person definitely wouldn’t do something like this.

Seeing Long Chen lost in thought, she asked, “Long Chen, how was it?”

Chi Yutong quickly pulled her back, telling her not to disturb Long Chen. This girl was too impatient.

After a while, Long Chen said, “Your Spirit Heart Sect’s cultivation technique is incomplete.”

Xin Yu nodded eagerly. “Yes, you’re correct! Many of the sect’s experts died during the primal chaos war, resulting in no one possessing the complete technique. Eventually, everyone used their own version to reconstruct it, but some parts were lost.”

Xin Yu was now hanging onto every word Long Chen spoke. Although Long Chen had never been to the Spirit Heart Sect, he was aware of their secret highest realm of sensing the spirit and heart of the heavens. He even identified a flaw in their main cultivation technique simply from her showing it to him.

Now, Xin Yu's look at Long Chen had changed. Her gaze was less teasing and showed new respect. At least, she had become a more obedient student.

Long Chen said, “The missing portion is small, and the overall direction has not changed. There are three ways to fix it. Remember this...”

Long Chen gave Xin Yu three paths that he found theoretically possible based on his understanding. However, only one of these paths was correct, so she would have to test them herself. If she were lucky, she would succeed on her first try.

If she were unlucky, it would take three times before she succeeded.

Xin Yu was trembling with excitement. If it really was possible to repair this incomplete technique, this achievement would become a legendary moment in the Spirit Heart Sect’s history. It could strengthen the entire sect and provide a huge boost for future generations of the Spirit Heart Sect.

“I’m going to return to the sect and go into seclusion right now!” Xin Yu exclaimed.

“Don’t rush. Let me finish first. Once you find the right path and improve your technique, you need to cleanse your heart and soul. In other words, rebuild your foundation. Then, correct your essence rune. If you leave now, you won’t finish in less than half a year. I can’t wait that long,” Long Chen said.

Long Chen waved his hand, and multicolored divine light shone brightly. When the sacred Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree appeared, both Chi Yutong and Xin Yu froze in shock.
