After a feast, Wei Lan went to her room in a light daze with an expression of contentnt. anwhile, Hua Ziyan and Shen Min sat before Wu Long, with Ye Ling and Luo Mingyu sitting not far to the side to discuss their gains from the hunt and what they experienced. They expressed their new understandings and discussed it together.
"At the mont you released your Sword Qi... I could feel where it would strike even before it left your sword. It was a wondrous feeling, like intuition"
"Yes, I did too, but strangely, I could even instinctively feel Ziyan's attack as well, albeit not as accurately as yours"
Hua Ziyan said after so period of discussions and Shen Min nodded with a pondering expression.
"Hmm, I felt your movents in the mont as well. I am just not sure why there was no such feeling during the training sessions before..."
Wu Long said with a pondering expression.
"It seems the bond is helpful not only in invigorating our Yin or Yang Qi, making us stronger overall, but as it gets stronger it is even sohow creating an instinctive connection beyond feeling each other's presence at a certain distance...but we have to figure out the conditions that trigger it. It should not be only combat since a technique should not have its own consciousness to differentiate whether it is real combat or training"
Luo Mingyu said with an introspective look as everyone nodded in agreent. They all felt the bonds tying them to Wu Long strengthen as they cultivated with him. Their Yin and Yang Qi were now almost constantly interacting, and the miraculous feeling they got while fighting this ti was what allowed for such seamless teamwork despite it being their first ti working together like this.
Luo Mingyu was happy to feel her bond strengthen, as well as happy that Wu Long relied on her to teach others, as it gave her reassurance in regard to her deepest insecurities about her physique's natural attraction to n. He also constantly showed her that he liked her, not because of her physique, but simply showing her love and care.
Shen Min was soothed not only by Wu Long's care and attention but also by how warm the atmosphere was. She never had close ties to her family, so having a harmonious new family felt incredible. She only knew them a little at first, but her inherent trust in Wu Long caused her to trust the other won he chose, thus opening up to them. And they reciprocated with kindness and care.
Hua Ziyan was able to take an initial step toward realizing her own worth and being able to more confidently stay beside Wu Long. She also understood that whether she could fight or not, bring him benefits or not, she would still be his woman. This transformation could not completely happen now, but the most crucial first step was taken, and thus her ntal realm had greatly expanded.
Wu Long looked at the won he was increasingly falling in love with deeper and deeper the more ti he spent with them, who reciprocated by deepening their feelings as well, and a feeling of happiness enveloped his heart as well, as the blissful feeling of connection was far more exhilarating than he ever thought.
Ye Ling looked at that expression and a delight spread warmth in her heart. Even when she managed to salvage a part of his soul and heart in the past she was unable to see this sight she longed to see. Nothing in the world is as precious to her as seeing the happiness of the most dear people, and nothing can bring as much sorrow as not being able to see it.
Five people, each with their own new gains, and so common ones for all of them sat for so ti in a harmonious atmosphere as they discussed so more changes, then gradually leaving serious thes and switching to less important topics, simply talking and laughing. Finally, after so ti, Wu Long stood up as he needed to process so more tangible gains from the hunt, which was the Neidan.
"Looks like I need to up my efforts since I can feel with the strengthening of our bonds that my Yang Qi should be able to hold on for so more ti, but if I do not constantly improve it I will have so trouble"
Wu Long chuckled. Since they were cultivating with the Dual Extres Infinite Union Art for a little more than a couple of weeks he felt that the bonds progressed at unprecedented speed, thus strengthening them all, but also putting more pressure on his Yang Qi.
He did not wait long and prepared to refine the Neidan he harvested from the Blazing Spine Serpent. Although low-level, it was an 8th-tier demonic beast, which was comparable to a Core Reformation Realm practitioner, almost the pinnacle of this fractured world. Consuming an unprocessed demonic core or Neidan in itself was sothing unthinkable for most people, but doing it with such a potent Neidan at only Qi Condensation Realm was pure suicide for the overwhelming majority of people.
And even with Chaos Refining Body Tempering Art, as well as the Golden Yang Dragon Body Wu Long had to be extrely careful, as well as vigilant. Ye Ling as well as the others were on full alert since Wu Long would be extrely vulnerable at the mont of this cultivation session.
He could instantly join the battle when he detected any anomaly, as the technique he usually used that allowed him to interrupt cultivation at any mont, the Battle Cultivation Scripture, was able to keep the progress, and lock the energy source the practitioner was using to cultivate in the body without loss, whether that was dicine, Yin Qi of the partner, or just Spiritual Qi in the surroundings that was gathered.
But during cultivation itself, before he noticed anything, there was no avoiding focusing most of his consciousness on the process when dealing with such a tyrannical energy.
Once he cald down his mind and adjusted his body, he started running his cultivation techniques and ingested the Neidan. Scorching heat spread from his stomach and soon his skin turned entirely red, a wave of heat then spread around him, and the stone garden he chose to cultivate started looking hazy since the air and the stones below were being heated to high temperatures. The stones beneath him then started exuding steam, as so of the minerals within started burning away, and the closest ones to him began to change color.
He sat in the lotus position for three days straight, the stone garden turning into scorched land as the stones all were black like coal, and the area directly around him resembled lava as the stones were bright red and shone with the light of heat.
Formless ripples spread from him as thin glowing lines, akin to lava, were coursing under his skin throughout.
Ye Ling, Hua Ziyan, Luo Mingyu, and Shen Min all felt through their bond as his Yang Qi was continuously strengthened. He used most of the energy he received for the improvent of his Yang Qi and Yang Root and sent the residual energy that was not of Yang attribute but of the demonic beast's cultivation strength to temper his body.
Once he completed the refinent of the Neidan, his eyes flashed open as a wave of Spiritual Qi sent the heat away from him in all directions. His clothes got incinerated in the process, and he left any valuables with Ye Ling, so he was completely naked at the mont, but there was no one in the sect anyway and he was never shy about his body. Due to the rapid improvent of his Yang Root and Yang Qi, his dragon now stood up, as hard as steel and with slightly bulging veins. Once the four won, who ca closer as soon as they felt him complete his goal, saw him, their throats got dry and they all audibly gulped since they were knew what was coming next. He already explained to them, that after he was done with the Neidan, he would not be able to calm down for so ti, and one or two of them would not be able to alleviate his lust since their stamina would run out faster with him being in this state.
"Ladies, I have kept you waiting"
Wu Long said to them, and they blushed, but there was eagerness and anticipation in their eyes. They all went inside the mansion this garden was attached to, which was the mansion of the forr sect leader. As they entered the master bedroom with a big bed, the four beauties started to take off their clothes, letting them freely fall to the floor, showing Wu Long their gorgeous and enchanting naked bodies, prompting the already-standing sword to twitch.
Hua Ziyan looked at that, and being the first to get rid of every single strap of fabric on her, ca toward Wu Long with a glint in her eyes as Luo Mingyu and Shen Min instantly locked their eyes on her movents, preparing to learn.
