Ah Chun: Ascending The Heavens 232 Coming Clean

Morning light peered through the bedroom window. Ah Chun opened her sleepy eyes and slowly removed her self from Li Chen Bao's grasp. "This girl has got a strong grip when shes sleeping. Anyway, I need to practice my swordplay." Ah Chun stretched her body she had been hugged all night by Li Chen Bao so she felt a little stiff. She picked up Xiao Feng who was sleeping in her own little bed, placed Xiao Feng on to her head, and walked out to the front yard.

Out in the front yard, the sound of a sword hum could be heard as Ah Chun slashed the air. She was taking this time to get fully used to her new body and powers. Although she had many battles with demonic beasts on the way back to Dust Village she did not have a chance to understand the full capacity of her new powers. 

Elder Dan who was already up was watching from afar as Ah Chun practiced her swordplay. She was actually quite surprised to see how refined Ah Chun's movements were. When she planted both hands on the ground she would seamlessly pa.s.s the sword to her tail allowing her tail to strike out while she used the small body of hers to dodge any incoming attack. Attack and defense were all ingrained into Ah Chun's swordplay. She looked like a sword master! 

Elder Dan was very curious about where Ah Chun learned such techniques. She took out a sword from her interspatial ring and charged towards Ah Chun. She made sure to release a bit of killing intent to test Ah Chun's reflexes. She instantly appeared near Ah Chun and swung her sword down. But to her surprise when the sword got near Ah Chun she was like a leaf on the wind and as if floating dodge the attack with ease. Then before she knew it a tail slapped her in the back and Ah Chun's sword as at her neck! 

"Master if you come at me with no intention of actually taking my life. You are nothing more than my prey." Ah Chun said as she removed her sword from Elder Dan's neck.

"Chun'er tell me the truth… Who are you?" Elder Dan asked. Ah Chun's reaction was too good for a seven year old kid. Her reactions were precise and agile and her movement technique earlier was not something that can be practiced in just a few years.

Ah Chun smiled. She saw no harm in telling the truth. It would be up to Elder Dan to take it as truth or not."Let's just say I am on my third life right now. And I have over ten thousand years of experience.  It just seems this world lets me use my experience a lot easier than my old world. Since in my old world, dancing lotus can only be used by cultivating a certain cultivation method. It's good to see that I can use it without issues here..." 

"I see… I have heard of such things before and about some in ancient text. Can I ask how you died last?" Elder Dan put her sword away and sat down on a nearby rock.

Ah Chun smiled and sat down on the ground. "To be honest I am not fully sure. Xiao Feng knows about it more than I do." Ah Chun pointed to the sleeping fire phoenix on her head. "From what I understand I tricked into trying to refine a crystal palace that has a locked secret plane within. These planes are out of the influence of the heavens and earth and can not be invaded by our realms. The creators set down a rule that any invader needs to become guardians of said crystal palace and must protect it. Each crystal palace also has someone protecting it and it seemed that that person had taken pity on me and instead of just killing me outright and enslaving me to become a crystal palace protector they sent my soul into, the me, of this world. So you can say I am me but not me at the same time. I am not sure how it works but this world is so similar to my old world all the way down to its people. But at the same time, it is not. So when I say my goal is to reach the height no human has ever reached before, I mean I will become a creator to get back to my own world." 

Elder Dan felt like her head was spinning. She did not know such a realm existed! But now she felt incompetent as a master! How was she supposed to be a master of someone who has lived three times as long as she has!? 

Ah Chun could sense Elder Dan's instability and sighed. "Master… Although I will not need much help on many things. This world's cultivation system is different from my old one. So I will be needing Masters guidance in the future." Ah Chun stood up and gave a bow to Elder Dan.

"That does make me feel a little better to know. At least I can still be of use. I want to ask, with your skills you could have easily dealt with that inner sect disciple why did you not do so?" Elder Dan asked.

"Mainly because he is of higher cultivation. Once he exerts his spiritual power I would be done for. The only reason I was able to win the little spar earlier was that you did not use any spiritual power to weigh me down. You only used killing intent and only a little bit at that. When you add spiritual power into the mix I would be pushed to the floor and made to kneel without even being able to resist. " Ah Chun stated matter of factly.

"I see then if any troubles arise within the sect come see me I will handle it. But if you can do so without involving me that would be better." Elder Dan felt a bit happier now. She could really be of use to her disciple until she was strong enough to take care of herself.

"I will do as master says then."
