Pfft.

The moment he touched the threshold, the blood of the strange beast seemed to have smelled the mellow fragrance emitted by the spirit wine. The boiling from the inside out swept through his entire body again.

However, he was still far from reaching his limit. Shen Ping used the Jade Bone Body to control his blood, bones, and muscles. Then, he gritted his teeth and suddenly sank his strength again.

Instantly, lit was as if his jade bone body was being pulled tightly by countless tiny threads. Waves of surging impact assaulted his face. His entire body could not help but tremble, and the blood of the strange beast burned violently. His skin and meridians instantly turned red. However, what shocked Shen Ping was that he could not retreat even if he wanted to.

Boom.

In this indescribable state, Perfected Qiu’s face quickly turned red, and her eyes were actually dyed with a golden luster. There seemed to be a black shadow flickering in the depths of her pupils.

At the same time, the magic power of the Golden Core on her body surged out uncontrollably. However, just as a trace of it leaked out, a figure covered in light armor appeared in the bedroom.

Pei Huoyu looked surprised. Then, she frowned and waved her hand. Golden patterns floated in her palm and instantly condensed into three golden rings that enveloped Perfected Qiu. Under the golden rings, the Golden Core magic powers on Perfected Qiu’s body was quickly restrained.

“What’s going on?” She looked at the scene in front of her and asked angrily.

“I-I’m not sure either… No, quick, help me suppress the blood of the strange beast!” Shen Ping kept trembling. He said with difficulty while retaining his last bit of consciousness.

Pei Huoyu bit the corner of her lips and slapped his fair palm on Shen Ping’s dantian and lower abdomen. She infused her Golden Core magic powers to suppress the boiling blood of the strange beast in his body.

A few dozen breaths later, the strange beast’s blood subsided. Shen Ping immediately felt the jade bone suddenly relax. He did not dare to delay at all and hurriedly retreated.

At this moment, the black shadow in the depths of Perfected Qiu’s pupils dissipated. Her eyes regained clarity. However, she could no longer suppress the bitterness of cultivation. The bedroom instantly fell silent. Even the breathing stopped. There was only a unique smell quietly spreading.

Four hours later, at the entrance of the small courtyard, Shen Ping, who had finished absorbing and digesting the boiling blood of the strange beast, looked at the valiant figure in front of him and hesitated a few times.

Only when he returned to his small courtyard did he laugh dryly a few times. His tone carried some lingering fear. “Senior Pei, this, it’s all thanks to your help this time. Otherwise, 1 don’t know what would have happened… 1 hope Senior Pei can forgive Perfected Qiu. That was really an accident.”

However, Pei Huoyu’s expression was surprisingly calm. She said that this was her duty and walked into the quiet room.

Seeing this, Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief and thought to himself that Senior Pei’s personality was quite gentle.

In the quiet room, Pei Huoyu sat cross-legged on the mat expressionlessly. She heard the footsteps outside walk away. Her face instantly turned red, and the curves of her light armor kept rising and falling. The usually calm mental state of Golden Core could not calm down for a long time.

Especially the image of that broad figure retreating could not be erased in her mind.

A long while later, after suppressing the waves in her heart, Pei Huoyu gritted her teeth and said, “How ugly!”

In the quiet room of the spirit pool, Shen Ping opened the virtual interface.

[You have dual cultivated with your Dao Companion 30 times. You have obtained wind-element spiritual root aptitude+12. You have obtained Talisman Dao Experience+12.]

[Current Dao Companion’s favorability: 90]

[Duo Cultivation Bonus: 3]

[Unknown Bonus: 30]

[Unknown Additional Effect: Unactivated]

[Immersion Effect: Constitution60, Soul Power+30]

[Constitution: Jade Bone Body (1,410/10,000)]

[Wind Spiritual Root: High-grade (11,680/50,000)]

[Talisman Master: Low-Grade Level Three (190,000/1,200,000)]

He scanned the number of times. A trace of fear appeared on his face. This Spirit Sunflower Body that could transform seven times was really too powerful. Fortunately, Perfected Pei was here. Otherwise, he might have died on it.

However, Shen Ping understood that all of this was mainly because of the blood of the strange beast. If there was no such special blood in his body, Perfected Qiu’s Spirit Sunflower Body would not be so ferocious. After all, the other party had only transformed twice and was far from reaching the unknown realm of the seventh transformation.

“Perhaps I can only withstand it when my physique is strengthened again!”

Although the change this time was because of the Jade Bone Body, if not for the effect of the Jade Bone Body, he would not have tried it. In the end, it was the Jade Bone Body that allowed him to withstand the burning state of the strange beast’s blood. If his physique had not transformed, his bones and tendons would definitely have cracked.

He suppressed this thought. He continued to look down. His gaze landed on the immersion status column, and he could not help but reveal a hint of surprise.

In the past, it was relatively difficult to reach an immersive state by having sex with his wife and concubines. Only after his wife transformed into a luxurious purple crown could he obtain an additional immersive effect every time. As for dual cultivation with Yu Yan, it could only be achieved with the help of the Jade Spirit Ginseng Ointment.

Even the Snow Ganoderma Pill was not enough.

But now?

In just a few dozen breaths, there was actually an immersion effect every time. Clearly, it was because of Perfected Qiu’s special physique. Not only did the effect increase his physique, but it also increased his soul power.

Although he did not know the use of this soul power now, it was most likely related to the soul. Resources to increase the soul were very rare even in the treasure vault of the True Treasure Pavilion, and every one of them was extremely expensive. Thinking of the changes brought about by the previous transformation of his physique, he vaguely looked forward to this soul power.

He continued reading.

After so many days and nights of cultivation, the wind-element mutant spiritual root had long broken through to the high-grade. However, the aptitude of the spiritual root was the same as the experience of a Talisman Master. Every time it increased, the harvest shrank greatly and became slow.

His divine sense seeped into his body. He already had the five spiritual roots of metal, wood, fire, earth, and wind in his body. Moreover, he could vaguely see the two pseudo spiritual roots of water and lightning gradually becoming clearer, as if they were not far from metamorphosis.

There were eight known spiritual root aptitudes in the cultivation world.

Once Shen Ping created a lightning and water spiritual root from nothing, he would have seven spiritual root aptitudes. This kind of situation was rare in the world.

Dozens of days passed.

After the Jin Kingdom’s Acacia Faction cleaned up the remnants of the Danxia Sect in Qingyang City, they greatly increased the rent of the alleys in the city that day. Even the small courtyards rented by the middle and late-stage Foundation Establishment realm like Huiquan Alley were no exception. This action immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of a large number of cultivators.

Many shop owners joined forces to accompany Elder Peng of the True Treasure Pavilion. Deacon Xia personally went to the Acacia Faction’s encampment to negotiate, but to no avail. This made many Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators who were paying attention to this matter sense that something was wrong.

The Acacia Faction’s attitude this time was a little too unyielding. It was fine if they did not give any face to the other shops, but it was really strange that they even rejected the True Treasure Pavilion.

When Elder Peng came to visit, he mentioned this matter, “Guest Elder Shen, the Acacia Faction’s actions are actually mainly for the sake of demonic sects like the Luosha Demonic Valley and the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. They have already secretly formed an alliance. The Acacia Faction is the Demon Sect to begin with. If they don’t do it, they will definitely be rejected by the other demonic sects. Moreover, the righteous path won’t accept them, so they can only do this.”

Shen Ping came to a realization and could not help but say, “Elder Peng, in that case, won’t there be any further chaos in Qingyang City?”

However, Elder Peng shook his head and said, “Although the Acacia Faction won’t wantonly kill cultivators like the other demonic sects when they control Qingyang City, now that the Danxia Sect has already called for other similar sects to jointly suppress the Luosha Demonic Valley and other sects, the twelve countries will definitely form an opposing faction. It’s even possible that the Wei Kingdom will become a battlefield for cultivators from the righteous and demonic paths.

“Qingyang City resides in it. It’s hard to predict. I came here today mainly to ask if Guest Elder Shen has any other arrangements.”

Shen Ping asked in confusion, “Elder Peng, what do you mean?”

Elder Peng smiled and explained, “It’s like this. I still have some connections in the Northern Rock Marsh Region. If you don’t have any arrangements, you can go to the Northern Rock Marsh Region to cultivate for a few years first. When the situation in the Wei Kingdom stabilizes, you can consider other things..”
