The Carefree Immortal, Episode 9: What is Love? Chapter 5: The Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint

Xiao Xuan was embarrassed and inexplicably disappointed.

E'yan's face grew increasingly red, and she didn't dare turn around for a long time.

Xiao Xuan panicked and quickly tried to make conversation: "By the way, what was that thing that stabbed you earlier? It could even turn invisible!"

"It was one of those sword generals we saw in the secret passage earlier,"

the girl replied, regaining some composure.

"But how can they turn invisible?"

Xiao Xuan asked疑惑地.

"Do you remember the ghost spiders we encountered when you accompanied me to Ten Thousand Spider Ridge last time?"

E'yan countered .

"I remember,"

Xiao Xuan said.

"Then you must remember those ghost spiders were invisible, right? My clan elders once extracted a mysterious material from those ghost spiders and applied it to some mechanisms, giving them the ability to turn invisible. Those sword generals that attacked us must have been one of them,"

E'yan said.

"Invisible mechanisms, that's terrifying!"

Xiao Xuan murmured.

"Unfortunately, ghost spiders are difficult to capture and difficult to refine, so the extracted material can only be used by a very small number of mechanism guards,"

E'yan said calmly.

Another silence fell. E'yan looked around nervously, while Xiao Xuan frantically searched for a topic of conversation. His gaze suddenly fell on the small knife at the girl's waist, and he said, "E'yan, I didn't know you were so powerful. Slaying those demons is like cutting radishes."

E'yan patted the knife and said, "It's not me who's powerful, it's this."

"It's really strange. It looks unremarkable, yet it has such power,"

Xiao Xuan said.

"Actually, it's quite beautiful."

E'yan drew the Wood-Cutting Token from its sheath, held it up in front of the boy, and continued, "Look closely. Although its appearance is simple, it exudes an incredibly lively aura."

"Hmm, the color is slowly changing... Be careful when you cut,"

Xiao Xuan warned, recalling how it had cleaved the tree spirit several feet away in two with a single swing, and he felt a chill run down his spine at the knife's power.

E'yan fiddled with the knife, then suddenly swung it at him, pressing the Wood-Cutting Token against his neck.

Xiao Xuan was startled, his entire body stiffening like a stone.

The girl giggled, gently rubbing and scraping his neck with the small knife: "It's a pity you don't have a beard, otherwise I'd use this to shave you."

How could it be alright? Xiao Xuan was utterly puzzled, and asked blankly, "Why is it not sharp?"

"Actually, it's not sharp at all; it's not even good for shaving,"

E'yan laughed.

"Then how did you manage to kill so many tree demons just now?"

Xiao Xuan asked, "Does it require the addition of true energy or spiritual power to unleash its power?"

"Using it does require a little spiritual power, but that's not the key,"

E'yan paused and said, "Do you know why it's called the Wood-Splitting Token? Because 'all woods of heaven and earth, upon encountering it, will dissolve.' That is to say, it has unparalleled power against all wood-type objects, but apart from that, against other types of objects, its sharpness is not even comparable to an ordinary knife."

"I see."

Xiao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, touched his neck, and indeed, there was no injury.

"That's why it ranks third on the Wood-type Spirit Items list in the *Zhou Tian Zhu Ling Ranking*, but ninth on the Swords list, and even thirty-first on the overall Weapon Ranking,"

E'yan explained.

Xiao Xuan exclaimed, "That's amazing! My master's Dream-Entering Sword is a top-tier weapon in the sect, capable of cutting iron like mud and flying through the air, striking fear into the hearts of countless demons. But I heard from my second senior sister that it only ranks 157th on the Swords list, and doesn't even crack the top 500 on the overall Weapon Ranking."

"The *Zhou Tian Zhu Ling Ranking* isn't absolutely accurate, and some parts are even wildly wrong, but it still has some reference value,"

E'yan said.

"A fine sword! A truly fine sword!"

Xiao Xuan stared at the small knife in the girl's hand, swallowing hard.

"Trying to be greedy again, huh?"

E'yan glared at him playfully.

"No, no!"

Xiao Xuan hurriedly waved his hands, "Not at all! Absolutely not! How about I swear?"

The girl rolled her eyes at him, sheathed her knife, rubbed her wound, and suddenly said, "Alright, since you don't want to stay here, let's get to work."

"Work? What kind of work?"

Xiao Xuan asked in surprise.

"Seal off the Tai Bi Yin Meridian."

E Yan looked at the large well that was constantly spewing out soft green light.

"Ah! That's the Tai Bi Yin Meridian?"

Xiao Xuan suddenly realized.

E Yan nodded.

"No wonder there are so many demons guarding this place. It seems the Seven Deadly Demons have found this place after all."

Xiao Xuan said.

"Let's go over there, be careful, I wonder what other remnants of evil might remain."

E Yan said.

"Wait, I'll go and do it. You're injured, don't move around."

Xiao Xuan said.

"Do you know how to seal it?"

E Yan asked with a smile.

"I'll go and take a look, I'll naturally find a way."

Xiao Xuan said.

“I’ll go. One talisman will do the trick,”

Eyan said. “Don’t worry, my injury is healed.”

“No, don’t push yourself. Such a serious injury won’t heal so quickly!”

Xiao Xuan objected.

“Come with me.”

Eyan turned and walked towards the pool.

Xiao Xuan was puzzled but quickly followed.

Eyan reached the pool, knelt on one knee, and with her back to him, half-undressed. She then began to loosen the bandages on her wounds.

“Why are you taking them off? Be careful of your wounds!”

Xiao Xuan said anxiously, but seeing that the girl’s clothes had fallen quite low, he dared not approach rashly.

The girl did not answer, but instead leaned down on her left shoulder and scooped up water with her hands, as if washing her wounds.

“Nonsense! How can you wash your wounds with water like that?”

Xiao Xuan exclaimed in alarm.

“Alright, alright, I’m coming.”

The girl said coquettishly, suddenly stood up, and turned to walk back, clutching her half-undressed clothes with both hands.

Xiao Xuan was suddenly dumbfounded. The wound on E Yan's left shoulder had completely disappeared, leaving her skin as smooth as jade and as pure as snow, with a few glistening water droplets still clinging to it, reflecting a dreamlike glow.

"Look, am I healed?"

E'yan gracefully twirled around, showing the boy her back, which was indeed perfectly intact, without a single flaw.

"How could this be? Where did your injury go?"

Xiao Xuan asked blankly.

"It's healed,"

E'yan said, a hint of pride in her voice.

"How is that possible, in such a short time..."

Xiao Xuan found it hard to believe.

"It's right here, and you still don't believe me?"

the girl said coquettishly, suddenly thrusting out her chest, "Let me let you feel it!"

As she thrust, she inadvertently slipped her clothes down slightly, revealing more of her body. Although only about half of her left breast was exposed, its fullness could already be roughly estimated from the smooth, swollen upper part.

Xiao Xu's blood rushed to his head, his mouth suddenly went dry, and he exclaimed inwardly, "Unbelievable! Unbelievable! How can someone so young and slender have such a full chest?"

Seeing his dazed expression, E'yan suddenly realized something, her face flushing crimson

. She immediately pulled her clothes up to her neck, covering her chest completely, then turned away and quickly put her clothes back on. Xiao Xuan's face was red, his breath catching in his throat.

"Let's go,"

the girl called sweetly, heading straight for the giant well.

"What happened? How did the wound on your shoulder suddenly disappear?"

Xiao Xuan followed behind, his curiosity piqued to the extreme.

"Alright, I'll tell you the secret,"

E'yan said. "Whether it's a gift from heaven or not, we Spirit Bamboo Clan people are born with a special ability: we can heal ourselves quickly from injuries, usually several times faster than ordinary people."

"I see, no wonder..."

Xiao Xuan said in realization.

“I haven’t finished yet,”

Eyan continued, “In every generation of our Spirit Bamboo Clan, there will always be one lucky individual who is born with a unique spiritual root. The possessor of this spiritual root has an even more astonishing self-healing ability, and the speed of self-healing is several times, or even dozens of times, faster than that of other Spirit Bamboo Clan members.”

“Several times, or even dozens of times, faster than that of other Spirit Bamboo Clan members?”

Xiao Xuan exclaimed in surprise, “That’s too bizarre…”

“And the only one among this generation of Spirit Bamboo Clan members happens to be me,”

Eyan said with a hint of pride.

Xiao Xuan’s mouth dropped open, increasingly feeling that the girl in front of him held too many magical secrets, making him eager to explore and understand them.

In the blink of an eye, the two had reached the giant well. Eyan stopped, took out a yellow talisman from the small pouch at her waist, and held it between her fingers.

Xiao Xuan leaped onto the well curb, his body bathed in the emerald light surging from the well. He instantly felt refreshed and cleansed, exclaiming, "So comfortable!"

E'yan said, "The nineteen spiritual veins of this realm each possess miraculous effects. The Tai Bi spiritual vein represents vitality, possessing the power of growth, restoration, and reproduction. If you are a wood-type being or practice wood-based techniques, cultivating here will be of immense benefit." "

In that case, this place is most suitable for my second senior sister,"

Xiao Xuan said, looking down into the well. He saw a dense, surging emerald light and asked, "How deep is this well?"

"I don't know, but I've heard from my elders that it leads to a magical secret realm. Would you like to go down and take a look?"

E'yan smiled.

"I don't have the leisure for that,"

Xiao Xuan immediately replied.

"Then hurry down, I'm going to seal it off,"

E'yan said.

Xiao Xuan quickly jumped down from the well curb and saw the girl with a talisman tucked into her chest, chanting incantations.

After a rather lengthy silent chant, E Yan loosened her two delicate fingers that were holding the talisman. A plume of yellow smoke shot upwards, reaching a great height in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, with a loud crack, a massive boulder, several meters in size, appeared in mid-air and crashed down towards the well with the force of a thunderbolt.

"Wow! What a powerful earth-escape talisman! If Xiao Wan were here, she'd be thrilled,"

Xiao Xuan sighed sadly.

The boulder struck the well, but then a sudden change occurred. A gray shadow flashed out, and something burst from the well. With a deafening roar, the boulder shattered into pieces as if exploding. The gray shadow then flew in all directions, suddenly expanding in the air like a nightmare into hundreds of giant dragons and pythons, baring their fangs and claws, lunging straight at the two.

"Thousand-Armed Demon!"

E'yan cried out, her hand reaching for her waist, pulling out the Wood-Untying Token and slashing it forward. Several enormous gray shadows were instantly severed at the waist, but suddenly her body tightened; a massive object had wrapped around her waist from behind, twisting it with immense force, almost causing her to faint. At the same time, her hand holding the knife was slammed down, and the Wood-Untying Token was snatched away.

"No!"

E'yan's expression changed drastically. With a fierce shout, a dazzling golden flame erupted from her body, blasting the massive object tightly bound to her waist into pieces that flew in all directions. She gathered her true energy and chased after the Wood-Untying Token, but dozens of dragon-like, python-like creatures appeared out of nowhere, surrounding her.

Meanwhile, Xiao Xuan was also attacked, but his situation was much better than E'yan's. He was only attacked by several massive creatures. Xiao Xuan didn't have time to use his whip and could only dodge and weave as he fled.

Several colossal creatures, seemingly with eyes, relentlessly pursued him. Xiao Xuan finally unleashed his Eight-Clawed Fiery Dragon Whip, letting out a roar, striking the closest creature and setting it ablaze. However, the creature continued its frenzied attack, the flames nearly striking him.

Xiao Xuan darted aside, his heart pounding with alarm, when suddenly E'yan shouted, "It's going that way! Stop it!"

He hurriedly asked, "Stop what?"

"The Wood-Unraveling Token!"

E'yan cried, her beautiful face a mixture of anger and reproach. With a flick of her wrist, countless secret talismans flashed out with incredible speed and magic, exploding around her in bursts of flame and light—some crimson like fire, some blazing like lightning, some crystalline like ice, some colorful like butterflies—a dazzling spectacle of vibrant hues.

Xiao Xuan looked up and saw a colossal creature carrying the Wood-Unraveling Token flying past. He quickly leaped after it, but several more colossal creatures immediately joined the attack, blocking his path.

"Help me get it back!"

E'yan cried out again, her voice shrill.

Xiao Xuan's heart skipped a beat. He turned to look and saw the girl's eyes filled with anxiety and hope. Knowing the gravity of the situation, he immediately focused intently on the stolen Jiemu Token and used all his strength to weave through the hordes of demons blocking his way with lightning speed. E'yan

unleashed a barrage of talismans, various lights and phenomena exploding and flashing around her like a storm, but the demons surrounding her were endless. One wave was destroyed, only to be replaced by another, surging in from all directions like a tidal wave, powerfully squeezing and contracting towards the center.

The surrounding space dwindled, and E'yan felt a burning pain on her skin. She had been burned by the fire and electricity of her talismans, but she still gritted her teeth and fought back. However, the enemy was clearly stronger. The light grew brighter and brighter, but the range narrowed. Then, a soft moan escaped her lips, and the light finally vanished completely.

E'yan felt as if her body was shattered, bound by countless giant chains, unable to move an inch. Just then, she desperately spotted Xiao Xuan among the countless monstrous creatures crisscrossing the air. He was not far away, also bound by several monsters, his eyes closed, his fate unknown.

"Ah Xuan..."

E'yan called weakly.

Xiao Xuan's face twitched, and he opened his eyes.

"How are you?"

E'yan asked.

"Damn it! What kind of monster is this?"

Xiao Xuan cursed angrily, though he was struggling to breathe.

"It must be that demon! He... he was hiding here!"

E'yan gritted her teeth.

"E'yan, I couldn't get the knife, I don't know how I got caught..."

Xiao Xuan said apologetically.

E'yan's eyes suddenly filled with tears, and she choked out, "Brother Ah Xuan, I'm sorry."

"What are you saying? It's... I came here of my own accord,"

Xiao Xuan quickly said.

"I thought the demon wasn't in the valley... I thought everything was foolproof this time... so... so..."

E'yan trembled, tears streaming down her face.

"It's alright, it's alright... I'll think of something else."

Xiao Xuan felt incredibly distressed, his mind racing.

Suddenly, a series of sinister laughs rang out, a deep, resonant voice seemingly echoing from the depths of hell: "What other way... The Wood-Unraveling Token is in my hands... what other way do you have..."

Then, the demons began to writhe and swell, and a large plume of azure mist rose before them, within which a gigantic gray shadow was faintly visible. The gray shadow suddenly expanded rapidly, bursting through the surrounding azure mist, revealing its true form.

Xiao Xuan stared intently, and saw a demon resembling a giant tree, its body mottled, its crown seemingly endless, and three enormous humanoid heads sprouting from its trunk. All the demons before seemed to have extended from its body, like its hundreds of arms.

"What kind of evil creature is this?"

Xiao Xuan was both angry and astonished.

"I am an ancient divine tree, the ancestor of all trees, born in the Kunlun Treasure Realm. I have endured countless tribulations and have now transcended the mortal realm to become a saint, known as the Thousand-Wood Primordial Saint and the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint. All gods and demons in the heavens respect and fear me. How could I be some lowly evil creature?"

one of the giant tree's heads said arrogantly.

"You despicable and shameless demon, you have devoured countless innocent spirit trees and sacred woods, yet you still have the nerve to call yourself a divine tree!"

E'yan cursed angrily.

"Creation and life, the strong survive and the weak perish, this is the will of fate, not my fault."

another head of the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint said, its voice completely different from the first: "Little child, you are a descendant of the Spirit Bamboo Ancestor, aren't you? Hehe, the Spirit Bamboo lineage is truly delicious. It seems my cultivation will increase considerably."

Xiao Xuan felt a chill run down his spine and shouted, "You... what are you going to do?"

"I will devour this last true vein of the Spirit Bamboo, making it an immortal and eternal part of my world."

the third head of the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint said menacingly.

Xiao Xuan, his face pale, shouted angrily, "Such wickedness, aren't you afraid of being condemned by heaven and earth one day!"

The three heads of the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint laughed loudly. The leftmost head said, "Countless eons ago, I reached the Taiyi Daluo realm. After that, I devoured thousands of spiritual trees and exotic woods, and have long been immortal and indestructible. Then I found this Taibi Wonderland, and I bathe in the spiritual veins every day. Now, even Kunlun Yuanshi and the Western Buddha can't do anything to me!"

"Keep bragging! You're just a withered old tree spirit. You've lived for so long and still don't know the immensity of heaven and earth! You fought with us two children for most of the day. Let alone Buddha, even if a Bodhisattva came, she could wipe you out with a single finger!"

Xiao Xuan mocked, hoping to provoke his enemy and perhaps change the situation.

To everyone's surprise, the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint remained calm and composed. His middle head said, "Originally, I had one remaining concern..."

He carefully used his demonic arm to present the unsheathed Wood-Splitting Token to the three heads, laughing, "That's right, it's this Wood-Splitting Token, forged by who knows who. Its mysteries have always puzzled me, and it's always been the most worrisome thing that has troubled me the most. Perhaps, only this small knife in the world can threaten my eternal existence... Haha, I didn't expect you to deliver it to my doorstep today!"

E'yan's eyes blazed with fury, her teeth grinding together in rage.

Xiao Xuan, however, suddenly paused, as if realizing something.

"Alright, now let me become even stronger..."

The Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint's several demonic arms writhed and moved, bringing the tightly bound E'yan before the three giant heads.

E'yan trembled violently, her eyes tightly shut.

Xiao Xuan also closed his eyes, his face unusually calm.

"Do not be afraid, this is your best destiny. You will merge with me, becoming an eternal part of my indestructible world."

The voice of the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint echoed in the air. The demon head in the center slowly opened its mouth, revealing a bottomless maw filled with azure energy.

"No! I don't want to! Kill me! Kill me!"

E'yan screamed in despair, her delicate body struggling desperately, but all in vain.

Not far away, Xiao Xuan suddenly opened his eyes and softly called out, "My dear Shui'er."

Suddenly, a circle of brilliant light burst forth, and the several huge demonic arms binding him instantly and inexplicably broke off. Xiao Xuan glanced at the Jie Mu Ling hanging above, and with a thought, the light shot out like a shooting star or rainbow, instantly circling around the Jie Mu Ling and severing the demonic arms binding it.

"Come back!"

Xiao Xuan shouted, a spark flying towards E'yan, briefly intersecting with the lightning-fast phantom. He then swiftly swung the newly appeared wooden token, severing all the demonic arms binding E'yan.

The Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint, as if waking from a dream, roared, and the hundreds of demonic arms that had been suspended in mid-air began to dance wildly, raining down on the two from all directions like a storm.

E'yan, having escaped death, was overjoyed, but her composure and reflexes were exceptional. After only a moment of stunned silence, she shouted to Xiao Xuan, "Attack its head with the token!"

Flames reappeared on her body, blasting away the loosened, severed demonic arms.

Xiao Xuan, holding the token, rushed towards the three heads of the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint, his dazzling phantoms protecting him. In a flash, he severed seven or eight of the massive demonic arms that had attacked him.

E'yan flew over, a flash of purple light at her fingertips, and four bright purple orbs appeared around her body, swirling and orbiting. With each swing of her arm, one orb shot out, whistling as it struck the approaching demonic arm of Xiao Xuan.

Previously, the two were only a few feet away from the three demonic heads, but in the blink of an eye, they were upon them. Xiao Xuan roared and swung his blade, a deafening howl suddenly rang out, and a long crack appeared on the central giant head of the Thousand-Armed Yuan Sheng. Large plumes of smoke-like azure energy shot out from the crack, then, to the astonishment of the two demonic heads on either side, they slid apart, the detached half of the head, along with large foliage, falling downwards.

Xiao Xuan's spirits soared. He raised the Wood-Splitting Token high and cleaved it down at the giant head on the left side of the Thousand-Armed Yuan Sheng. Another earth-shattering scream rang out, and the second demon head was instantly split in two. A large plume of azure energy erupted from it, shooting towards the top, which was dozens of feet high, like a fountain of molten lava.

The last remaining demon head was terrified. With a fierce howl, hundreds of demonic arms around it rushed towards it like venomous pythons and angry dragons. Only the nearest dozen or so arrived in time, but they were all sliced off by the phantom in a dreamlike manner. At that moment, E Yan, who had arrived shortly after, raised her hands, and four purple orbs of light that were swirling around her body flew forward, instantly blasting a corner off the remaining demon head. Unexpectedly, the demon head only tilted slightly, and the damaged part miraculously and rapidly regenerated, becoming whole again in an instant.

Xiao Xuan was horrified and was about to swing his precious blade again when he heard E Yan shout, "Give me the knife!"

He quickly handed over the Wood-Splitting Token.

E'yan took it, gritting her teeth, and said, "Die!"

With a swift movement, she unleashed a torrent of power, cleaving through the last demonic head of the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint, slicing down its massive trunk, which was tens of feet high, all

the way to its base. With a long howl, the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint's enormous body trembled violently. Its base remained in the giant well, but its trunk suddenly split open to the left and right, crashing and slamming against the walls on either side. The hundreds of demonic arms in the air struggled madly for a moment before beginning to fall one by one.

Suddenly, Xiao Xuan saw a bright green object fly out from the Thousand-Armed Primordial Saint's remains, disappearing into the rising blue mist at an incredible speed. A thought struck him, and he quickly lashed out with his whip, catching it.

The ball of emerald light immediately leaped up and struggled desperately in all directions, as if trying to escape. However, the Flaming Dragon Whip contained the marrow of the eight legs of the Eight-Clawed Flaming Dragon, which was most adept at capturing and binding. How could it escape?

Xiao Xuan pulled Bi Liang close, his heart pounding. "Dragons have pearls, phoenixes have elixirs, and the five elemental spirits often possess spiritual cores. This thing is most likely the spiritual core of the Thousand-Armed Demon! I used the spiritual core of the Skeleton Stone Spirit to create the incredibly powerful Phantom. With this, I wonder what wondrous things I can create? Heh, the Thousand-Armed Demon's cultivation is far superior to the Skeleton Stone Spirit's, so his spiritual core must be even better!"

He became more and more excited as he thought about it, but fearing for E Yan's safety, he dared not examine it closely. He quickly put Bi Liang into his Ruyi Pouch and flew down from the sky, landing beside the girl who was frozen in front of the Thousand-Armed Yuan Sheng's giant body. Seeing her eyes glazed over, her hands still clutching the precious token, her pale body trembling, he exclaimed, "What's wrong?"

The wooden token suddenly fell to the ground, and E Yan burst into tears, throwing herself into his arms.

"It's alright, it's alright, we've defeated this demon!"

Xiao Xuan quickly comforted her, hugging the girl and gently patting her back.

"I've avenged them! I've avenged my grandfather, my father, my mother, and all my clansmen!"

E'yan sobbed.

"Yes, yes, they can rest in peace now,"

Xiao Xuan said softly, stroking her hair. Only then did he realize the heavy burden the girl in his arms had carried.

E'yan lifted her head from his chest, her tears mingling with a smile.

Xiao Xuan smiled too, overjoyed at the girl's happy face.

"Brother Xuan..."

E'yan gazed at him intently and said softly, "Thank you."

Xiao Xuan wanted to say something polite, but seeing the girl now, as beautiful as a pear blossom after the rain, he was stunned.

"Brother Xuan,"

E'yan called shyly, but her eyes never wavered, bravely meeting the man's gaze, her eyes filled with deep affection.

Xiao Xuan's heart pounded.
