Chapter 269 Stealing the Vermilion Fruit, Chi Tian Ce! (Part 1)
Cultivation knows no time; time flies like an arrow.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Ke had spent a full 110 days in the cultivation space.
During this period, he exhausted the cultivation space monthly card rewarded by the system and completed the "Minor Dao of Derivation", reaching the physical requirements for cultivating the first level of the Heaven-Slaying Divine Art.
Afterwards, he recharged 80000 evil points and exchanged them for 80 days of cultivation time. He completed the first level of "Slaying the Heavens Divine Art," "Refined Through a Thousand Hammers," and also reached the minor completion level of "Immortal Crossing."
He and his divided soul also cultivated other miscellaneous martial arts and supernatural abilities to perfection through their joint efforts.
After finishing his arduous training and refining his personal abilities, Bai Ke, feeling slightly tired, left the training space and returned to the real world.
There was no difference from before I entered the cultivation space; the sky outside the window was still dark and gloomy.
I spent 110 days in the cultivation space, but only about half an hour had passed in real time.
Bai Ke lay on the soft, comfortable bed, clearly feeling the increase in his strength, and couldn't help but call out to the system:
"System, bring up my character panel."
"Ding, your personal panel is as follows:"

Bai Ke carefully browsed his personal panel, and before he knew it, sleepiness came over him. He felt his eyes were swollen and sore, and soon he drifted off to sleep...
The next day, a knock on the door woke Bai Ke up.
"Young Master, it's almost noon, you should go find Miss Xin'er!" Ah Can's voice rang out from outside the door.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ke got up from the bed and casually used a small spell to wash and clean himself.
Pushing open the door, I looked out and saw a clear blue sky, without a single cloud in sight.
Because of its high altitude, Chijie Cliff is shrouded in clouds and surrounded by mountains. In the distance, the highest peak, Tiance Peak, can be faintly seen with the glow of dawn, making it seem like a fairyland.
As a stranger in a foreign land, Bai Ke couldn't help but gaze into the distance, thinking of the bustling traffic of his hometown, and let out a long sigh.
"What's wrong, young master? Did you work too hard yesterday and feel exhausted?" Ah Can teased with a grin.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ke didn't say anything more. He simply used his skillful technique to deliver a sharp rap on the head! The flick of his wrist subtly contained a trace of the power of the Great Dao.
"Ouch! Young Master, why is your strength so much greater than usual? It hurts so much!" Ah Can cried out, rubbing his head in pain.
Bai Ke remained silent, thinking to himself: You always rely on being a body cultivator, unafraid of me hitting you on the head... Now my physical strength is dozens of times stronger than yours, let's see if you'll still pretend!
The combination of "Xiao Yan Dao" and the first level of "Shi Tian Shen Gong" made Bai Ke's physical strength far exceed that of A Can, a body cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage.
It should be noted that Ah Can's current physical strength is enough to withstand a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, while Bai Ke, relying solely on his physical strength, would dare to fight even a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stages!
"You don't need to come with me today. You stay home and look after the house. I'm going to find Xin'er."
After giving his orders, Bai Ke immediately used his Immortal Crossing technique and vanished with a whoosh. Only Ah Can, mouth agape, stared blankly at the lingering afterimage, speechless for a long time.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Ke descended upon Tianxiu Peak like a rainbow, then slowed down and strolled toward the summit.
The female students strolling along the roadside were startled by this astonishing speed. After regaining their senses, they began whispering among themselves:
"My goodness, I thought it was some kind of flying artifact passing by, but it turns out to be Senior Brother!"
"That scared me to death! My senior brother disappeared in the blink of an eye. He was so cool."
"What kind of heaven-defying divine power has Senior Brother cultivated this time? His speed is almost catching up with his Lingyun Ferry."
"The eldest brother looks so cool flying..."
Bai Ke smiled slightly, ignoring the ghostly stares from his junior sisters. He tossed his hair dramatically and walked away, thinking to himself:
Immortal Crossing truly lives up to its reputation as a high-grade Earth-rank divine ability. Even at only a minor level of mastery, it possesses such speed, comparable to teleportation. It was worth all the hard work I put into practicing in the cultivation space.
It seems the "Lightning Speed" mission is done. Today, I'll take Xin'er to Wanbaotang again and try to get my hands on the century-old Vermilion Fruit...
Lost in thought, Bai Ke had unknowingly arrived at Xin'er's residence. He tidied his appearance slightly, stepped forward, knocked on the door, and called out:
"Xin'er, I'm here."
The door creaked open, and Ling Xin'er, dressed in a vibrant green dress, stood gracefully in the doorway, looking every bit like a fairy. She chided in a clear, melodious voice:
"You jerk, why are you taking so long? I'm dying of boredom waiting for you!"
"Hehe, I overslept! I'll take you to a fun place today."
"where?"
Bai Ke smiled, stepped forward and put his arm around Ling Xin'er's slender waist, then cast a spiritual energy barrier around her, teasingly saying in a sarcastic tone, "Little Xin'er, hold on tight, we're about to take off!"
Before Ling Xin'er could react, her vision blurred and she found herself in the sky! The surrounding scenery rushed past her as Bai Ke carried her at an incredible speed.
Before long, the two flew above Wanbaotang. Because of Bai Ke's spiritual energy barrier protecting her, Ling Xin'er felt no discomfort during the flight. She was simply very curious and couldn't help but ask:
"You bad guy, what kind of escape technique did you use? How are you so fast?"
"Hehe, give me a kiss and I'll tell you." Bai Ke shamelessly moved his face closer.
Ling Xin'er pushed Bai Ke's face away with a look of disgust and asked, "What are we doing at Wanbaotang?"
"Let's do something big!" Bai Ke said mysteriously. Then he closed his eyes and recalled the scene of stealing food from Elder Lin's herb garden when he was a child...
After thinking for a while, Bai Ke opened his eyes and fixed his gaze on a medicinal garden in the back mountain of Wanbaotang that was extremely rich in spiritual energy.
"Let's go!" Bai Ke reminded them. Instead of using the Immortal Crossing Divine Power, they concealed their auras and flew towards the herb garden.
In the herb garden, an old man dressed in a plain robe was hunched over, watering and fertilizing the spiritual trees and herbs.
After Bai Ke landed with Ling Xin'er in his arms, he and Ling Xin'er stealthily hid in the dense grass not far from the herb garden.
Seeing Bai Ke looking around the herb garden with a shifty glint in his eyes, Ling Xin'er couldn't help but whisper, "You bad guy, what are we doing in Elder Lin's herb garden?"
Bai Ke smiled, revealing his teeth, and mouthed the gesture:
"Steal! The! Vermilion! Fruit!"
