Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1768 - 897: Innate Fetal Body

This ancient Secret Technique of returning to the Innate Fetal Body, although he had never witnessed it in his past life, he had heard about it. It is said to involve the supreme mystery of Life Origin, something that only ancient families with extremely deep foundations can perform. The depth of the Tantai Family’s foundation is indeed unfathomable.

He carefully recalled all the gains from the Canglong Secret Collection. Although there were many rare treasures, none were specially used for stabilizing the soul and promoting the perfect fusion of body and soul.

Such Treasures are rare in the world to begin with.

Just as he was pondering, the door of the Quiet Room was gently pushed open, and a small fiery-red figure walked in. It was none other than Tantai Xuefei, who had left and returned.

She still looked like a seven or eight-year-old girl, but her face lacked the previous laziness and casualness, instead adding a bit of seriousness.

She walked up to Gu Sheng, raised her small face, and asked directly.

"Gu Sheng, among the things you brought out from the Canglong Secret Collection, is there anything... that can help me?"

Her posture was very humble. She did not directly demand or offer to purchase as she would in a business discussion but instead used the word "help," with her eyes carrying a trace of barely noticeable expectancy.

Gu Sheng looked at her, shook his head frankly, and spoke calmly.

"Sorry, Lady Xuefei. I have carefully checked all the gains, and there is nothing among them that can stabilize the Soul Source or promote the fusion of the spirit and body."

Upon hearing this, Tantai Xuefei’s eyes flickered with a trace of obvious disappointment, and her chubby little face fell, as she muttered in a low voice.

"Really nothing, huh... That’s right, such rare treasures that have miraculous effects on the Soul origin are pathetically scarce. If Venerable Azure Dragon himself had it, he probably wouldn’t have saved it till now."

Gu Sheng calmly observed Tantai Xuefei’s reaction, but in his heart, he was quickly weighing the options.

He indeed did not find anything that could directly help her, but in his past life as a Dan Emperor, he had some Elixir Recipes or solutions in mind. However, these methods either required rarer main medicines or were extremely dangerous processes.

He was considering whether it was worth his effort to find or even refine such Elixir Pills to win over this incredibly talented, well-backgrounded genius of the Tantai Family.

Tantai Xuefei seemed to understand that she couldn’t force it. She took a deep breath, suppressed her disappointment, and waved at Gu Sheng.

"Forget it, if there’s none, there’s none. I won’t disturb you anymore."

After saying this, she hesitated no longer and turned to leave the Quiet Room, her fiery-red figure appearing somewhat desolate.

After Tantai Xuefei left, with a wave of his hand, Gu Sheng intertwined pure True Qi and condensed spiritual power, setting up a barrier in the Quiet Room to isolate any external probing.

He then took out the specially crafted Magical Treasure Crystal Stone that Tantai Xueli had given him in private before he left Great Wilderness City.

He activated a trace of True Qi into it, and the Crystal Stone immediately radiated a soft white light. The light rippled like water waves, enveloping Gu Sheng. Moments later, a clear figure was projected before him from the white light.

The owner of the figure was evidently disguised, with ordinary features and simple attire. But those eyes, clear and cold as a cold pool, and the uniquely crisp aura surrounding them, made Gu Sheng recognize her at once as Tantai Xueli.

"Xueli."

Gu Sheng got straight to the point and asked directly.

"What is your relationship with Tantai Xuefei of Fallen Moon City?"

The virtual image of Tantai Xueli projected from the Crystal Stone nodded slightly, and her voice came through, carrying her distinct coldness but sounding quite affirming.

"The relationship is good. Although Xuefei is my little uncle’s daughter, she grew up with me and Sister Bingtang, with a deep bond. In the Tantai Family, with its strict power inheritance, the relationships among peers are generally harmonious, and there’s little internal strife."

Gu Sheng nodded and continued to ask.

"Regarding her matters, if I know something, can I inform you? Or, should it be kept secret from her?"

Tantai Xueli’s virtual image was silent for a moment, as if pondering her words, before she slowly spoke.

"Xuefei is naturally trustworthy.

But Qingyun..."

Her tone became extraordinarily serious.

"If what you know involves her reincarnation secrets or significant matters that might invite trouble, to avoid you being drawn into unnecessary turmoil and falling into danger...

My advice is, it’s best not to get involved lightly, nor to offer assistance. I hope more than anyone that Xuefei can quickly regain her strength and return to her former glory, but I never want to see you putting yourself at risk for helping her.

There are boundaries that we can’t touch for now."

Her response clearly expressed the stance—trusting Tantai Xuefei, but more concerned about Gu Sheng’s safety.

The information revealed within made Gu Sheng have a deeper understanding of the possible complex situations within the Tantai Family and the risks hidden behind the ’Spiritual Embryo Reformation’ Secret Technique.

The balance in his heart about whether to help Tantai Xuefei seemed to have gained new considerations.

After communicating with Tantai Xueli through the Crystal Stone, Tantai Xueli on the other side actively cut off the True Qi supply, and the cold phantom projected wavered slightly, then dissipated into the air.

Gu Sheng waved away the barrier he had set up and, after a brief contemplation, used the method of transmitting his soul’s voice to invite Tantai Xuefei, who had just left not long ago, to meet in a more secluded and disturbance-free side hall.

Shortly after, the door of the side hall was pushed open, and Tantai Xuefei, still rubbing her somewhat sleepy eyes, walked in unsteadily, muttering to herself.
