Cultivation Starts from Farming-Chapter 780 - 357: Refining the Dragon Blood Fruit, Unexpected Dragon’s Might (3)
Within the sleeping palace, the fluctuation of Mana and a seductive aura intertwined, permeating every inch of space.
True Monarch Lan Ling lay lazily on Xu Ping’s wide and sturdy chest, like a begonia flower drenched by the rain.
Her normally frost-cold ice-blue beautiful eyes were now half-open, half-closed, shimmering with an indescribable charm and weariness.
Although the Mana of her Mid-Stage Nascent Soul was unusually active, surging like a tide in spring, she no longer had the strength to speak.
The body of the usually awe-inspiring True Monarch at the Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, revered by the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons’ disciples, was now as soft as boneless, every inch of her skin tinged with an alluring pink.
After quite some time, about the duration of half a cup of tea, True Monarch Lan Ling finally regained a bit of strength.
She slightly lifted her delicate head, a hint of resentment flickered in those beautiful eyes, as she glanced at Xu Ping with a mix of complaint and admiration:
"Junior Brother, how did your physique suddenly improve so much?"
To turn the tide in this contest and become the master, she had put in considerable effort, not only finding a marvelous Dual Cultivation Technique but also strengthening her physique by various means.
Seeing victory near, yet ultimately seeing efforts come to naught.
"By chance, obtained some treasures that enhanced my vitality,"
Xu Ping held True Monarch Lan Ling’s soft and delicate body in his arms, grinning with a hint of pride and satisfaction in his smile.
A true man should firmly hold the situation, how could he let anyone seize the dominant position?
His hand gently caressed the smooth, satin-like back of the beauty in his embrace, feeling that delicate sensation.
"However, my enhanced physique has made our Dual Cultivation even more effective, which is also good for Senior Sister."
Xu Ping’s tone carried a touch of teasing, his eyes sparkling with mischievous light.
The Dual Cultivation Technique True Monarch Lan Ling found was quite peculiar, called the "Great Art of Yin-Yang Harmony."
This technique emphasized the intermingling of vitality and Mana, harmonizing Yin and Yang, thereby facilitating the advancement of both parties’ cultivation.
The stronger Xu Ping’s vitality, the more pronounced the effect generated during Dual Cultivation.
The recent union brought considerable benefits to both of them.
"Good thing?"
Upon hearing Xu Ping’s tease, True Monarch Lan Ling couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him, her gaze full of coquettish annoyance and helplessness.
With her physique and cultivation at Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, even she felt weakness in her limbs, showing the intensity of the recent encounter.
However, she had to admit that the effects of this Dual Cultivation indeed were not bad.
If this continues, her cultivation speed would surely see a significant boost.
...
Xu Ping gently held True Monarch Lan Ling’s body as soft and fair as mutton jade, as he usually would start circulating the Mana within him.
Under his guidance, the incomparably pure Wood Element Spiritual Qi transformed into strands of verdant brilliance, softly nourishing the exhausted body of the beauty in his embrace like a spring breeze and rain.
Nourished by this gentle Mana, the red marks on her gradually faded, and her aura became steady once more.
Relief immediately appeared on True Monarch Lan Ling’s face.
She was like a lazy cat, enjoying this unique gentleness in Xu Ping’s arms.
After tenderly spending some more time together, Xu Ping finally left the Blue Water Peak.
In a secret chamber of the underground mansion on Cyan Cloud Peak.
Xu Ping sat cross-legged, palms facing upward, drawing inwards his mind, starting to operate the "Ten Thousand Woods Evergreen Scripture."
Hoo!
Endless Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, as if summoned by something, swarmed from all directions, rushing into Xu Ping’s body.
Upon entering his body, those Spiritual Qi were instantly transformed by the profound Skill of the "Ten Thousand Woods Evergreen Scripture" into the purest Mana, merging into his Dantian.
Who knows how long passed.
Xu Ping slowly finished his cultivation, opening his eyes.
"It’s been almost twenty years since breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, with Mana advancing even further, probably considered an experienced Nascent Soul True Monarch."
Feeling the surging river-like Mana within, the corners of Xu Ping’s mouth revealed a satisfied smile.
Twenty years from first entering Nascent Soul to being a seasoned Nascent Soul cultivator.
This speed among Nascent Soul cultivators isn’t quick but isn’t slow either, it’s average.
Xu Ping knew well that switching cultivation techniques would definitely have some impact on him.
After all, "Ten Thousand Woods Evergreen Scripture" has essential differences from the techniques he previously cultivated, requiring time to adapt and integrate.
But the years of Dual Cultivation with True Monarch Lan Ling compensated greatly for this shortfall.
His vitality grew increasingly formidable, while True Monarch Lan Ling’s cultivation became more profound, the effects produced from their Dual Cultivation mutually enhanced and boosted each other.
If calculating based on this stable cultivation speed, in a few more decades, he should be able to reach the peak of Early-Stage Nascent Soul.
By then, he can consider striking the Mid-Stage Nascent Soul.
However, once he follows his plans to travel clandestinely to the Wind Origin Realm, the cultivation speed might slow significantly.
But he doesn’t mind, for he possesses a longevity that ordinary people can hardly dream of.
So what if it’s slower?
As long as he can move forward steadily, one day he will reach the pinnacle of cultivation.
Once the turbulence of Mana within completely calmed down, Xu Ping began cultivating another Secret Technique— "Thousand Mechanism Skill."
It remains difficult to successfully refine a Fourth Rank Puppet, so first try to enhance his Divine Sense as much as possible.
Once the Divine Sense reaches an adequate level, the success rate of refining a Fourth Rank Puppet will naturally increase significantly.
This can be considered an alternative route of sorts. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
Moreover, after years of diligent cultivation, he is very close to mastering the "Thousand Mechanism Skill."
....
Another year’s cycle of cold and warmth.
On this day.
A sudden burst of powerful Divine Sense waves erupted in the chamber, sweeping out like stormy waves.
The wave carried a heart-palpitating pressure, seemingly capable of directly impacting the depths of one’s Sea of Consciousness.
Xu Ping abruptly opened his eyes, those eyes shimmering with unprecedented divine light, illuminating the entire chamber like two dazzling stars.
