**Chapter Sixty-Seven: Mine’s Really Big, You Have to Bear With It**
With spiritual energy circulating around, it needed Mu Jixue’s guidance throughout the process. The moment their energies touched, a wave of peculiar sensations rippled through Mu Jixue’s body.
She didn’t want to make a sound, but Yun Zhonghe’s spiritual energy was so powerful and grandiose that it felt like a potent boost, making her salivate, leading to her instinctively craving to be absorbed.
At that moment, both of them faintly sensed their internal cultivation methods resonating with one another.
This subtle feeling made Yun Zhonghe feel a bit strange.
But honestly, his Golden Yang Technique and Mu Jixue’s Ice Heart Technique did indeed have a very compatible quality.
The Golden Yang Technique could absorb the power of primordial yin, boosting its primordial yang while also nurturing the primordial yin.
The Ice Heart Technique could absorb primordial yin and evolve it into extreme yin, making it the best choice for a primordial yang furnace.
When these two techniques clashed, who knew what kind of sparks they would ignite?
Like the poles of a magnet, once they touched, they would fervently attract each other.
However, Yun Zhonghe knew his limits; checking his buddy’s meridian paths was one thing, but actually engaging in dual cultivation? Who would have wicked thoughts about their own big son?
“Brother, you smell incredible!” This kind of joke was just playful banter. Who would take it seriously, right?
Yun Zhonghe restrained his thoughts.
As their spiritual energies exchanged, it felt as if Mu Jixue had grabbed hold of his clone, leading him on a tour of her meridian pathways.
From the palm to the arm, then to the torso and lower limbs…
Under Mu Jixue’s guidance, Yun Zhonghe explored her activated meridians; these were the pathways for the Ice Heart Technique and the route for her spiritual energy flow — the foundation of a cultivator.
Meanwhile, Lin Zhongyu was monitoring with the Golden Emperor Sacred Eyes, ensuring Yun Zhonghe didn’t stray off course or enter the wrong path.
But as she watched her two most important people dive deeper into this exploration, she felt like an outsider, her emotions a complicated mess.
“Brother Yun, at the next fork, you need to enter the Sky Cave, then follow the Yin Meridian Path into the Earth Courtyard…”
Feeling complex emotions aside, Lin Zhongyu did her supervisory job with utmost seriousness.
“Uuuh…”
Mu Jixue couldn’t help but bite her flushed lips.
Yun Zhonghe’s spiritual energy flowing through her body felt like invisible hands were caressing her, which was just plain weird.
Especially when Yun Zhonghe’s energy flowed through her lower abdomen — it felt like those intangible hands were wanting to go deeper, and the sensation almost made Mu Jixue jump up.
If it weren’t for the fact that Yun Zhonghe was genuinely following the designated paths, she might’ve thought he was sneaking around doing naughty things.
“d*mn it, d*mn it, d*mn it! I’ll never do this with him again!”
Mu Jixue was fuming.
About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Yun Zhonghe’s exploration finally concluded.
The flow of spiritual energy completed its round and returned to his palm, which he then retracted as he ended his meditation, slowly opening his eyes. Indeed, he saw Mu Jixue collapsed on the bed, glistening with fragrant sweat.
Her snow-white skin was tinged with a rosy hue, and her tender face seemed more enticing, like a blooming flower, with silvery hair spilling across the bed, sparkling like a treasure.
She looked utterly exhausted.
“Mu Girl, what’s wrong?” Yun Zhonghe asked, bewildered.
“You dare ask? You let in so much of your spiritual energy; do you want to break me?” Mu Jixue shot him a glare, sounding irked.
Yun Zhonghe held his head, not realizing his spiritual energy output had caused her trouble.
“Sorry! That was the least amount of power I could output!”
There was no other way; Yun Zhonghe’s spiritual energy was indeed astonishing. Plus, being accustomed to compressing his energy for storage, even his minimal output was far more excessive than others.
Yellow hair is quite a handful; Huang Aotian, you need to bear with it!
Fortunately, Mu Jixue wasn’t ordinary either; her narrow meridians managed to swallow Yun Zhonghe’s spiritual energy.
Who would have imagined this petite body could be so accommodating?
“Sorry; as compensation, let me give you some dan pills.”
Yun Zhonghe felt he should make amends, especially since such a chance to offer medicine was too good to miss.
Suddenly, Yun Zhonghe felt he was becoming more skilled, effortlessly seizing the opportunity to boost Huang Aotian’s cultivation.
Mu Jixue: “…”
This yellow-haired guy always thinks about giving me cultivation dan pills?
Even someone as oblivious as Mu Jixue couldn’t help but feel a tinge of doubt.
After all, who goes out on a mission without restorative items but carries tons of cultivation pills?
But Yun Zhonghe wouldn’t harm her by giving her cultivation dan pills, so Mu Jixue forced down her confusion, snatching the entire bottle of Foundation Establishment Pills from Yun Zhonghe’s hands.
No matter how you slice it, this was a Foundation Establishment Pill, capable of significantly shortening her time in the Foundation Establishment Stage, allowing her to transit to the Golden Core Stage sooner.
Her master, Master Youyue, had mentioned that the Ice Heart Technique needed at least the Golden Core Stage to maximize its performance, and her cultivation speed could reach another level.
As long as she cultivates fast enough, this yellow-haired guy wouldn’t keep up with her progress, and then she could leave him behind, no longer needing to team up with him.
After all, they weren’t on the same cultivation level, and whether it was for missions or other matters, they wouldn’t gel well. This way, Mu Jixue could justifiably drag Lin Zhongyu away from Yun Zhonghe.
Mu Jixue felt she had outsmarted herself, proudly basking in her own cleverness.
“Alright, I’ve met your request, and now I’ll take Xiao Yu and head back to rest.”
After wrapping everything up, Mu Jixue climbed off the bed, adjusted her clothes, and prepared to leave Yun Zhonghe’s room with the silent Lin Zhongyu.
Staying any longer felt like there would be something even more crucial that Yun Zhonghe might consume.
“Mhm, you two stay safe. If anything happens, remember to send me a signal with your spiritual energy; I’ll rush over immediately.”
Mu Jixue: “…”
Looking at Yun Zhonghe’s nonchalant demeanor, he didn’t seem excited at all despite the spiritual energy exchange they just had. Mu Jixue felt inexplicably displeased.
But considering that Yun Zhonghe was relatively honest, she didn’t mind being a bit gentler.
After all, her cultivation would soon leave this yellow-haired guy behind.
“Here, take this.”
With that thought, Mu Jixue pulled out a piece of talisman paper from her sleeve and handed it to Yun Zhonghe.
She explained, “This is a teleportation talisman my master left for me. I have a matching one, which allows for mutual location. As long as you activate this talisman, it can teleport you here, and vice versa.”
Yun Zhonghe’s eyes lit up.
This was a fantastic item — a piece of advanced talisman paper related to spatial laws, quite valuable!
Having this talisman meant he could instantly keep his big son safe!
