Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao-Chapter 1397 - 137: Life Unification

"Actually, I also know that this Eternal Spirit is so adorable. My sisters are very fond of her too, but she’s not grown up yet."

Lin Xuefei blushed, speaking shyly yet without hesitation.

"I know you like to look, why not hold her, kiss her, all is fine with me, I’m quite happy in my heart."

Lin Xuefei muttered softly again.

Hearing this, Zhou Yan did not hesitate, immediately going over and reaching out to embrace it.

An indescribable strange feeling emerged, this feeling, astonishingly, was like dual cultivation of the Spirit, very peculiar.

Moreover, embracing this Eternal Spirit, Zhou Yan felt a great harmony with Lin Xuefei.

This harmony was a harmony of the Tao, yet an indescribable sensation. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

But Zhou Yan, holding this childlike Eternal Spirit, had no complex thoughts, rather, it was a unique kind of protection.

This protection was no different from the love he had for Yanyan when she was young, even vaguely surpassing it.

Zhou Yan knew, this was because of his very close relationship with Lin Xuefei, though this Eternal Spirit was a little girl, this intimacy was something only Daoist couples have.

When Zhou Yan embraced this Eternal Spirit, he indeed kissed her rosy cheeks and those beautiful eyes, then, subconsciously, Zhou Yan released his own Eternal Spirit.

It was a young boy, about three years old in size, though this Eternal Spirit was less than a year old, the size of a three-year-old was obviously due to the unique enhancement of the Sea of Suffering Realm.

Zhou Yan tried using his Eternal Spirit to hold the little girl, just like a pair of golden boy and girl.

And as the Eternal Spirits touched, a terrifying power, like extreme magic, nearly caused Zhou Yan to lose himself.

"What’s going on?"

Zhou Yan, as if struck by lightning, instantly let go of Lin Xuefei’s Eternal Spirit, a silent fear gripping his heart.

It seemed he had inadvertently touched on a forbidden domain.

Of course, this was related to the king’s legacy of the King Realm.

Using the Emperor’s Blood and Mark, Zhou Yan unleashed the Backtracking Method, conducting a solemn derivation for the first time.

As Zhou Yan combined the king’s will, the derivation was interrupted just at its inception.

Yet, with Zhou Yan’s strong wisdom, he still captured a trace.

Then, looking at Lin Xuefei still trapped in an abyss, Zhou Yan felt a pang of alarm.

"Xuefei, come on, let’s initiate the inheritance and obtain it early to avoid any accidents.

Also, I’m somewhat worried, fearing the Cangshan domain might act against our Ziwei Sect during this time because of Loh Jixu’s death."

Bringing a trace of Thunder Seal Power, Zhou Yan gently resonated through Lin Xuefei’s Soul Body, allowing her to awaken from the dazed state instantly.

Awakening, Lin Xuefei manifested extreme shyness.

"Mm, mm, I, I will, I will."

Lin Xuefei spoke, her cheeks turning bright red, not daring to meet Zhou Yan’s gaze.

Zhou Yan vaguely sensed, from Lin Xuefei’s body, a unique fragrance emanated, carrying the distinct breath of soul power, this breath even with hints of purple soul energy in a smoky form.

His gaze like a torch, Zhou Yan, previously somewhat certain about something, was now more convinced.

And this gaze of Zhou Yan threw Lin Xuefei’s young heart into turmoil.

Her heart pounded, frantically, unable to look at Zhou Yan.

The coyness, unease, and inexplicable sense of gain and loss became somewhat complicated.

She was willing to give everything to Zhou Yan, but at this moment, she felt exceedingly mortified, some inexplicable fear and anxiety arose.

She believed she was ready for everything, ready to sacrifice her purity for Zhou Yan at any moment, but truly at this juncture, the state of mind in chaos deprived her of any courage to make such a decision.

Thus, she found herself completely at a loss.

However, Zhou Yan had no such intentions, having observed and confirmed—on Lin Xuefei’s body, just like his own, lay the king’s legacy.

Even though the characteristics of this king’s will were unknown.

But it was indeed the king’s will.

If both have the king’s will, their Soul Bodies were irrelevant, yet if top-notch Eternal Spirits were to engage in dual cultivation, once impregnated, could it give birth to a heartless, surpassing kingly being?

Is this possible, or impossible?

Beyond kingly is heartless.

Otherwise, one cannot attain the ultimate realm of the king.

Since it’s heartless, the dual cultivation of Eternal Spirits cannot exist.

For dual cultivation of Eternal Spirits to be completed, genuine feeling is necessary.

Unlike a Soul Body, if the true feeling is absent, forced dual cultivation would not invoke emotion.

No emotion means no state of Yin Yang unity will emerge.

So, when Zhou Yan’s Eternal Spirit clashed with Lin Xuefei’s Eternal Spirit, an extreme sensation erupted momentarily, it was deeply frightening.

Before the outcome is determined, this matter must be approached with utmost caution, not allowing any degree of negligence.

Zhou Yan realized this point, but Lin Xuefei didn’t, thus she thought Zhou Yan had some intentions, when in fact Zhou Yan simply interrupted Lin Xuefei’s thoughts through the inheritance, while also stabilizing her unsettled state.

Sure enough, upon mention of the Ziwei Sect’s danger, did Lin Xuefei truly awaken, her heart calm from the earlier disturbance.

Even though her heart harbored inexplicable feelings of loss and regret for what hadn’t occurred, having experienced that dual cultivation-like scene, she entirely regarded herself as belonging to Zhou Yan.

After all, the momentary harmony of the Eternal Spirits exceeded equivalents.

And once a young girl and a young man shared such a sensation, how could there be any other thoughts?

After such thoughts, seeing Zhou Yan staring at her with some concern, Lin Xuefei, not knowing the reason, assumed Zhou Yan was worried she was upset or angry. She, very shyly yet tenderly, said, "Zhou Yan, I’m really, really okay. Not angry at all. We’ve already been like that, I’m yours now, please don’t abandon me in the future, alright?"

Lin Xuefei spoke, her big, watery eyes looking at Zhou Yan with an infinitely hopeful gaze, imbued with affection.

"Mm, I certainly won’t abandon you, but you also need to be good, you must strive to comprehend this important inheritance for you, understand?"

Zhou Yan said softly.

This inadvertently discovered secret was a colossal secret.

Zhou Yan didn’t know whether it was good or bad for Lin Xuefei.

But regardless of the circumstances, this matter was significant.

Moreover, this secret must not be allowed for any other life to know, otherwise, if other Eternal Life Beings became aware of this inheritance, they’d stop at nothing to seize it.

"Zhou Yan, you’re so good, don’t worry, I will, I will certainly be obedient!"

"For my whole life, I’ve always been the most obedient. In the future, staying by your side, I will definitely achieve that."

Lin Xuefei said with great certainty.

"Mm, I believe you. Now, promise me one thing—the first thing—in the future, before anyone, don’t ever let your Eternal Spirit be exposed, you understand? Better yet, try not to show your Eternal Spirit to anyone."

Zhou Yan said solemnly.

Hearing this, Lin Xuefei’s gaze became exceptionally bright, looking at Zhou Yan, nodding very obediently, "Rest assured, Zhou Yan, since I’m yours, naturally I will only show to you alone, no one else, not even the Master."

Lin Xuefei spoke, then added another sentence quietly at the end.

Zhou Yan was taken aback, seeing Lin Xuefei misunderstanding this as his ’possessiveness’ being too strong, therefore not letting her show her Eternal Spirit to anyone, thus he opened his mouth but didn’t bother explaining.

Lin Xuefei’s understanding was left as it was.

Zhou Yan thought.

Afterwards, Zhou Yan initiated the Nine-layered Array, then Lin Xuefei, very obediently, began absorbing purple energy, then directly entered into sudden enlightenment cultivation.

Zhou Yan guarded Lin Xuefei, silently watching her transform her Soul Body with the utmost speed, his previously held speculation becoming even more certain.

Lin Xuefei, indeed, held the secret of the king’s legacy.

She was like Zhou Yan, with a secret akin to possessing a Thunder Seal.

No wonder, no wonder Lin Xuefei for so many years had no admiration for any Eternal Life Being but fell in love at first sight with him.

No wonder Lin Xuefei had such an intense attraction to him, Zhou Yan.

It turns out that their essence was the same.

Zhou Yan realizing this couldn’t help but recall Loh Jixu’s determination concerning Lin Xuefei, instantly, his expression turned grim.

This time, Zhou Yan re-entered Loh Jixu’s memory, then begun seriously analyzing Loh Jixu’s feelings for Lin Xuefei.

Previously, Zhou Yan didn’t find it important and had ignored it after analysis.

But now knowing Lin Xuefei’s uniqueness, Zhou Yan naturally wouldn’t be complacent, repeatedly focusing on Loh Jixu’s situation.
