Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL]-Chapter 42: Choice

The next day, Zhen Yuan retreated in the training room while Shen Xu retreated in the alchemy room.

First, Shen Xu put away all the unnecessary paraphernalia in the room.

When the room was as empty as it could be, he sat on a putuan and took a deep breath.

"I am finally going to do it." He muttered with a smile in his eyes.

For others, abolishing their cultivation was a devastating thing.

However, for Shen Xu, abolishing his cultivation was the beginning of a new journey.

In more ways than one, abolishing his cultivation was a rebirth.

After all, his current cultivation was the hard work of the original Shen Xu.

The hard work and experience belonged to the original owner.

Because of this, Shen Xu always felt a sense of unreality concerning his cultivation.

Now that he was about to start a new journey, he couldn’t help but be excited.

’I can’t make any mistakes.’ Shen Xu thought and closed his eyes.

After adjusting his breath, he began to study the Chaos flame cultivation technique.

Three days later, the double smiled with a confident look in his eyes.

"I understand everything." He said and took a deep breath.

With a thought, his spiritual consciousness entered his dantian.

’Since I am at the twelfth level of the qi refining realm, there are twelve layers of qi in my dantian.’ He thought as he looked at his qi.

Generally, when a cultivator abolished his cultivation, his qi would escape into his surroundings.

However, Shen Xu didn’t want this to happen.

After he read the Chaos Flame technique, he had an idea he wanted to try.

If the idea worked, the abolished qi would not escape.

Instead, it would be used to nourish his body and meridians.

"I hope it works." Shen Xu muttered and directly dispersed his twelfth layer of qi.

Less than a breath later, his cultivation rapidly dropped from the peak of the twelfth level to the peak of the eleventh.

At the same time, Shen Xu gathered the dispersed qi and forced it into his meridians.

Unfortunately, he planned well but didn’t expect the pain.

As soon as the qi was forced into the meridians, the meridians groaned in strain.

In the blink of an eye, cracks appeared on the meridian walls and cold sweat dampened the double’s clothes.

’Not good.’ Shen Xu thought and hurriedly swallowed a healing pill.

Fortunately, the pill was a top-grade healing pill and quickly healed the cracked meridians.

Seeing this, Shen Xu sighed in relief and forcibly suppressed his lingering fear.

’If the meridians are accidentally broken, the healing pill will be useless. I have to be more careful.’ He thought.

In this way, Shen Xu methodically abolished his cultivation.

Although the process was painful, the results were evident.

By the time he abolished all his cultivation, his meridians were five times wider and their walls were thicker and more elastic.

At the same time, his body became a little stronger and the size of his dantian tripled.

"The pain was worth it." Shen Xu said and subconsciously burst into laughter.

In the book, one of the reasons Xiao Weimin was invincible in the same cultivation realm was because of his meridians and dantian.

Since he had the rare five elements physique, Xiao Weimin had abnormally wide meridians and dantian.

As a result, at the same level, he had more qi than his opponents.

Because of this, he could exert more force and fight longer.

"I wonder how my meridians and dantian compare to the protagonist..." Shen Xu wondered.

However, he didn’t dwell on the matter.

Instead, he adjusted his breath and prepared to operate the chaos flame cultivation technique.

However, as he was adjusting his breath, Shen Xu suddenly entered a dream state.

In the dream state, he was in a grey world.

The world was a persistent grey but for some reason, Shen Xu was not afraid.

"Abolishing your cultivation and cultivating again is a form of rebirth." A voice suddenly reverberated in the grey world.

’I seem to have thought this before.’ Shen Xu remembered and continued to look around.

From the voice, Shen Xu surmised the speaker was a wise old man.

However, no matter how he looked, he saw no one.

"Senior..." Shen Xu called but no one answered.

"Only at this time can the Taoist contract be broken. If you agree to break the contract, I will untangle your fate from that of the child of luck." The voice continued.

Hearing the words, Shen Xu was shocked.

If the voice had appeared when he first met Zhen Yuan, Shen Xu would have agreed without a second thought.

However, now, his heart was unwilling.

Even though the reward was tempting, Shen Xu couldn’t be happy.

In his heart, he felt the trade was unequal.

Unexpectedly, he felt being free from Xiao Weimin was not worth losing Zhen Yuan.

Thinking this, Shen Xu laughed and a nostalgic look appeared in his eyes.

’Do I already like him so much?’ He wondered.

However, the fact that he wondered meant that he already did.

"I want to see him." He muttered.

"What’s your answer?" The voice asked and quickly continued.

"Your fate and that of the ****** of the *** are parallel. If you insist on keeping the Taoist contract, your future path will be filled with trials and tribulations."

"What?" Shen Xu asked and frowned in confusion.

For some reason, he couldn’t hear some of the words spoken by the mysterious person.

’Censorship?’ He thought and chuckled in amusement.

He didn’t expect to suddenly encounter such a strange thing.

However, Shen Xu was not flustered.

Since he had already chosen Zhen Yuan, he didn’t care about the other’s identity.

When the time came, they would deal with everything together.

"What is your choice?" The voice asked and Shen Xu smiled.

"You should already know my choice." He said.

At the same time, Zhen Yuan was suddenly startled and subconsciously opened his eyes.

Before he could react, a golden light enveloped his body and didn’t disappear until an hour later.
