What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Chapter 124: Heaven And Earth Technique

The following days may have been the happiest time in Chu Ge’s life.

Perhaps it was because he had passed all kinds of “tests” last night with flying colors, and since then, Qiu Wuji’s attitude had completely changed. She no longer looked for excuses to beat him up and instead became virtuous and gentle.

He would rise early to practice martial arts and write, while Qiu Wuji would go out to buy chicken stew.

The fragrant aroma of the chicken soup wafted through the house, even stealing away Chu Ge’s thoughts as he wrote.

As for the routine of serving tea and water, they had grown accustomed to it and even added various new touches. First, it was cutting fruits, and when the juicer they ordered arrived, they eagerly studied how to make juice. With a glass of ice-cold fruit juice placed in front of him on a scorching day, Chu Ge was so touched that he almost wanted to cry.

Even breakfast had become more diverse. The juicer could also grind soy milk, so Qiu Wuji no longer drank the watery soy milk bought from outside but instead ground fresh soy milk from whole soybeans.

Drinking soy milk in the morning, writing with a cup of tea infused with juice, and having chicken soup for meals—Chu Ge truly believed in the wisdom of the saying he had mentioned before: “The quality of life mainly depends on the kind of wife you marry.”

Although she didn’t admit that she was his wife and hadn’t fulfilled the most crucial duty of a wife…

But she was his wife, in Chu Ge’s heart, no matter how you looked at it.

Qiu Wuji didn’t consider herself a wife… but she enjoyed herself while doing it. She found it very interesting. Using modern equipment to do things that could only be done with magical powers, she had always been fascinated by these changes.

Being able to create different things with modern tools made Qiu Wuji very happy.

She even forgot that she was in a complete “housewife” state. The desire to make money that she had before seemed to have disappeared into a corner, as she felt it was meaningless. If she really wanted to make money, it seemed easy for her in the present, but she didn’t seem to have that desire.

Chu Ge’s earnings from writing were enough to support the family, and she was just a small assistant.

Chu Ge himself was not someone who was excessively eager for wealth. In his view, the current income from his online subscriptions, combined with some unexpected windfalls, was already impressive. He had no immediate aspirations for more and had no plans to have Qiu Wuji work to supplement the household expenses.

Both of them seemed to have forgotten what they used to say about “you need to earn money independently to survive”…

Well, being an assistant is also a way of independent survival, isn’t it? Earning his money is considered work, right?

Obviously, being an executive assistant is also tiring!

As an assistant, she even had to endure being flirted with and reluctantly called “sister-in-law.” Isn’t it challenging?

So, on ordinary days, Qiu Wuji would explore new ideas, watch dramas, read books, write hundreds of words for her autobiography, and enjoy the feeling of receiving praise when people say, “The main content is here.” She would smile with eyes resembling crescent moons.

These days were so comfortable.

It was like cultivating immortality.

In the evening, she could even spar with Chu Ge to pass the time… Oh, I mean, practice together, practice together.

Since she didn’t allow him to train with Moon Shadow, then, of course, the pitiful assistant had to make a small sacrifice.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

The two of them swiftly dismantled their moves in the living room. As they exchanged blows, it turned into a tangle of four limbs. Chu Ge exerted a little force and pinned Qiu Wuji against the wall, trying to restrain her.

What’s the point of teaching the folding plum hand and all those delicate grappling techniques? No matter how you twist and turn it, it always ends up like this…

Qiu Wuji leaned against the wall, her chest rising and falling, her hair in disarray, and her gaze defiant.

Chu Ge’s throat made a slight “gulp” sound.

“Bang!” In the next moment, Chu Ge turned into a big character shape, lying flat against the wall.

Qiu Wuji clapped her hands and stepped away. “That’s what you get! Have a clue! If you ever show that lewd gaze again, I’ll stick a durian to the wall next time!”

Chu Ge pounded the wall. “Lin Wuyang, you’ve caused me great harm!”

If Lin Wuyang were here and heard this, he would definitely say, “What the hell does that have to do with me? Even if I were a man, I wouldn’t be able to handle it!”

“Come over here!” Qiu Wuji called out from the doorway of the room.

“Oh.” Chu Ge obediently walked over. “Are we going to practice the spiritual exercises tonight?”

“That’s right.”

With nothing to do these past few days, Qiu Wuji specifically went back to the world of the book and imprinted the “Heaven And Earth Technique” to teach Chu Ge.

As long as it’s not pushed to the limit, it’s quite easy to shuttle back and forth when the soul is vigorous. The cooldown time for fatigue that needs to be recovered is also very short. After a brief rest, it’s possible to shuttle again. This round trip was just like “leaving early and returning late,” similar to going out to play for a day and coming back.

Even if it was just for a day, Chu Ge felt restless. He felt uncomfortable being apart from her for even half a day, and also because he was afraid of facing the hurdle that prevented them from being together every time they parted.

Fortunately, this time everything was calm, nothing happened, and the “Heaven And Earth Technique” smoothly entered his soul.

But Qiu Wuji didn’t mention how to practice it. It was only after they finished a set of folding plum hand exercises that she abruptly brought up this topic.

Chu Ge entered the room feeling puzzled. “Do we need to make a special trip to the room for this?”

Qiu Wuji was very cautious. “The spiritual practice is not to be taken lightly. One slight misstep can turn you into a lunatic. The soul tempering technique you practiced in the previous few months showed some results. Your soul is stable enough to try it… but you need to be fully prepared. I didn’t rush back to get the manual before because I felt like something was missing when you were practicing it at that time…”

Chu Ge: “…”

Is that so? Why do I feel like you just came over because you couldn’t be bothered to go back before? You only thought of going home because you had nothing to do these past few days…

Qiu Wuji continued, “Now that you’ve mastered all the skills and have no weaknesses, the previous exercise has put your physical functions in a peak state, ready for any unexpected situations. What you need to do next is to calm your soul. Your own bedroom naturally helps with the tranquility of your soul. Sit on the bed, and I’ll act as your guardian.”

Seeing her seriousness, Chu Ge didn’t dare to let his thoughts wander to any other meanings of “sit on the bed.” He sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed with utmost sincerity, focusing his mind.

He felt a slight pain in his forehead, which was caused by Qiu Wuji taking out that grain of sand and pressing it directly on his forehead, almost embedding it.

Instantly, he felt a strange power spreading from his forehead, rushing towards his soul.

He had never felt the real existence of the “Soul Sea” before, but now he seemed to have a faint sense of it… Amidst the vastness, he seemed to see a large expanse of thin mist, like steam on the sea. It seemed to be the manifestation of his own spiritual power.

The peculiar radiation contained in this grain of sand was not a type of treasure that provided energy or assisted in enhancing spiritual power. Instead, it seemed to have the significance of allowing people to observe the spiritual Sea of Consciousness. No wonder the Wang family used it to cultivate superpowers, Zhang Qiren wanted to snatch it, and even the country attached importance to it… This special value was even greater than directly providing energy.

But for Qiu Wuji, this little thing was nothing out of the ordinary. She was the true treasure.

Qiu Wuji’s voice echoed in the Sea of Consciousness, “The Heaven And Earth Technique doesn’t have a specific cultivation route. The spiritual world has its own principles. As a beginner, you don’t need to consider affecting others’ spiritual matters. Begin with self-visualization.”

“Visualization?” Chu Ge felt like he was transmitting this thought.

Qiu Wuji wasn’t surprised that his thought wave could be conveyed—indeed, with his level of spiritual power, he could have done that long ago.

She simply explained, “Yes, it’s visualization. For example, you imagine a sword or a knife. Initially, they are intangible and have no effect. But at some point, when you feel they have solidified and can be controlled and projected outward, that becomes a form of psychic harm, extremely difficult to defend against. This is just an example. The Heaven And Earth Technique is not in that direction. Understand the essence of it and visualize according to its principles.”

The Heaven And Earth Technique is not just a form of psychic hallucination. It drags the opponent into the spiritual world, ranging from peering into their soul and acquiring knowledge to controlling their mind and transcending their soul, or even plunging them into the cycles of past lives and present existence, trapping their soul forever. The levels gradually progress from martial arts to immortal cultivation.

Visualization… Visualize according to the direction of the Heaven And Earth Technique, the spiritual world… What could it be?

Chu Ge had a specific purpose when choosing this skill.

Of course, visualizing the world in books, what else could it be?

But the world in books was too vast… There needed to be a specific reference point to provide a clear target for beginners.

So…

Lock onto Qiu Wuji.

In Chu Ge’s Sea of Consciousness, the figure of Qiu Wuji gradually emerged.

Qiu Wuji, who was acting as the guardian, had a somewhat strange expression… It seemed she was somewhat delighted but also a little embarrassed.

You’re visualizing for cultivation… What do you want me to do? Are you going to shout for Qiu-Qiu to save you when you can’t defeat someone?

However, as he continued to watch, her expression gradually changed.

The Qiu Wuji in Chu Ge’s Sea of Consciousness began to shrink… No, not shrink, but rather, it became distant, creating an illusion of a stretched perspective.

From a distant aerial view, overlooking the mountains amidst the clouds, on the peak of the main summit, beside the swordsmithing platform. The real Qiu Wuji held the Azure Sword in her hand, repeatedly refining and tempering it.

The sword tip cut through her jade-like hand, and blue blood flowed, forming hidden patterns on the blade. The blood shimmered and gradually disappeared within the tempering of the ethereal flames.

Ripples spread, autumn water connected to the endless sky.

“Azure blood condenses into clear waves, the Chu (Heavenly/Boundless) sky is vast, and Autumn Water knows no bounds.” Qiu Wuji gazed at the moonlight, whispering softly, “Tomorrow midnight, on the fifteenth of the seventh month… The time has come. In this Night of a Hundred Ghosts, they shall be vanquished.”

Chu Ge silently watched the bloodstains in her hand.

In her world, her true self and her existence in this world were like two templates, two completely different people. No one understood better than herself the countless struggles and dangers she had faced.

He had once joked whether she could consider this a combination of work and leisure.

Perhaps it was indeed true… In Qiu Wuji’s heart, what she truly liked was the tranquility and serenity of this place, as that was what cultivation was all about.

That’s why she would increasingly grow fond of this place and less willing to leave. It was an inevitable outcome.

In a sense, the constant fighting and competition were not the path to immortality, at least not the path that Chu Ge envisioned, nor the one Qiu Wuji held in her heart.

“It’s almost over.” Chu Ge transmitted his thoughts in a low voice. “The next part of the story won’t tire you out like this. How about drinking some flower nectar, eating some cotton candy clouds, going on a sea voyage, and exploring the world? Would you like that?”

Qiu Wuji’s true self seemed to sense something and smiled faintly.

The Qiu Wuji beside him also revealed a sweet smile.

Deep down, she was still amazed… His Heaven And Earth Technique, his spiritual world, they truly existed there.
