Ascending to Immortality by Slaying Spirits

Chapter 170: Mutant Human Pill, Lonely Man and Woman

Another ten thousand human merits have been consumed, and twenty-seven years have passed in a single thought.

Lin Le forcibly activated the Yin-Yang Interaction Technique of Heaven and Earth with his life force, and thoroughly understood the technique.

Opening his eyes, Lin Le's eyes gleamed. Although he had wasted ten thousand merits, he had still gained something.

The Burning World Chapter adds a new spell, using thunder and fire as yin and yang, and further using life to create endless cycles; this is—Boundless Heavenly Gang.

Moreover, he thoroughly understood what the "Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Intercourse Technique" was; it was actually a variant of the human elixir method.

In the final stages of cultivation, men and women will unconsciously merge into one, becoming a Yin-Yang elixir.

Lin Le estimated that Xu Lingzi's target was that Great Pill. He didn't know its specific effects, but with the combination of innate Yin and Yang, it should be a good thing enough for him to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

'Tsk, you want to eat me? Don't you even have the teeth?'

A ruthless glint appeared in Lin Le's eyes.

Finally, Lin Le began to review the vine demon's memories, hoping to obtain some information about the Void Spirit.

The vine demon was originally an ornamental plant, but by chance it gained a new life and became intelligent. The memories he retrieved also started from when it gained intelligence.

However, it didn't gain sentience for long before Jinshanzi disappeared and never returned, leaving it alone in the cave, where it was eventually driven mad by the desolation.

Therefore, there is not much useful information.

We need to find a way to get some information out of that person.

The purple figure appeared in Lin Le's mind: Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.

Just as he was about to begin his cultivation, Lin Le suddenly froze, sensing someone appearing in front of his cave.

With a sweep of his divine sense, Lin Le raised an eyebrow. Speak of the devil, and he appears.

Ling Muzhu stood at the entrance of Lin Le Cave, looking at the gate in front of her, wanting to knock but not daring to.

Buzz! The door suddenly opened, startling Ling Muzhu.

This also meant that as soon as Lin Le opened the door, he saw waves raging and surging like the sea.

Lin Le's eyes darted around for a moment. He realized that he had been having trouble controlling his distracting thoughts lately. One factor was that he had just started eating meat, and another was that his Soul-Slaying View had improved rapidly due to killing too many people.

Clearing his mind of distractions, Lin Le looked at Ling Muzhu and asked, "Senior Sister, is there something you need?"

What is it? Ling Muzhu was speechless, staring blankly at Lin Le. No matter how she looked at this face, she couldn't bring herself to dislike it.

Her fingers unconsciously rubbed the hem of her clothes, and finally she said with an awkward smile, "Ah Le, I want to practice the Yin-Yang Intercourse Technique with you."

"Okay." Lin Le nodded without asking why.

Inside a room, the two sat cross-legged on a bed, palms touching, and began to practice their internal energy.

The Yin-Yang Intercourse Technique has five levels. The first level is the simplest, requiring only the palms to touch. The second level is slightly more difficult, requiring the practitioner to use specific postures. The third level requires the practitioner to achieve a state of yin-yang harmony, where each is intertwined with the other. The fourth level is the most difficult, requiring the fusion of spiritual consciousness.

As for the fifth level, it wasn't mentioned much, only that when hearts are in perfect harmony, the fifth level will naturally be achieved, and one can attain the Dao fruit.

Ah, the fruits of enlightenment offered to others.

Their auras merged, and the two began to circulate their energy. However, as soon as they started, Lin Le's expression changed because he felt his magical power pouring into Ling Muzhu's body.

Ling Muzhu's skin immediately turned pink, not from embarrassment, but from the rupture of blood vessels inside her body.

She hadn't expected Lin Le's magical power to surge into her body so violently, which caused her to suffer severe injuries.

Sensing that Ling Muzhu's life force was weakening, Lin Le was at a loss and could only stop the secret technique.

Ling Muzhu collapsed softly, her body falling into Lin Le's arms, having already fainted.

A stench of blood, mixed with her natural fragrance, wafted into Lin Le's nostrils, making him realize that Ling Muzhu's health was not good.

Ignoring the need for propriety between men and women, Lin Le's divine sense also invaded Ling Muzhu's body to check on the situation.

A quick scan with his divine sense revealed that her body had been ravaged by a surge of magical power.

Lin Le quickly used his divine sense to draw the magical power into his body.

He immediately frowned. Logically, this magical power should be his, but now it was rampaging through his body and showed no intention of merging into the mainstream.

The Samadhi True Fire ignited, refining the magical power. Lin Le looked at Ling Muzhu in his arms again.

He sighed, "You got off easy."

The Samadhi True Fire ignited and surged into Ling Muzhu's body, reshaping her form.

When Ling Muzhu slowly woke up, a delicate fragrance wafted into her nose, like the elegance of lotus flowers, or like the intense sunlight.

Ling Muzhu couldn't help but sniff a little more, and then she heard a sound: "Senior sister, you're awake?"

Ling Muzhu then realized that she was still leaning against someone's chest. She hurriedly got up, straightened her clothes, and said, "Mm."

After calming herself down, Ling Muzhu looked around and asked, "What's going on here?"

"You've fainted." Lin Le recounted the failed dual cultivation incident.

"I see." Ling Muzhu nodded. So it was because Lin Le's cultivation was too strong, while hers was too weak, which made it impossible for her to accept, thus leading to the failure of their dual cultivation.

Ling Muzhu was secretly pleased, which meant that she didn't have to cultivate with Lin Le anymore. After all, they couldn't even take the first step, let alone the next.

"So Master, what should we do next?" Lin Le turned his head and saw that Xu Lingzi was standing next to them watching.

"Master!" Ling Muzhu was also a little flustered, as she was sitting on the same bed as her disciple.

Xu Lingzi nodded slightly: "I had anticipated this situation, but I didn't expect that even the first step hadn't been started."

After saying that, Xu Lingzi said to Lin Le, "Let's suspend dual cultivation until the Transformation Technique is mastered."

"As for Yin Mingzi?" Xu Lingzi glanced at Ling Muzhu, but frowned slightly, because Ling Muzhu's cultivation had actually dropped to the Qi Refining Realm, obviously due to the severe injury he had just suffered.

I just don't know if Lin Le did it on purpose?
Xu Lingzi looked at Lin Le, who had a calm expression, and said, "From now on, you will be in charge of her cultivation. With your skills, you should be able to bring her to the Foundation Establishment Realm soon."

Xu Lingzi's words were full of meaning.

'Tsk, they actually dared to set their sights on me.'

Lin Le clicked his tongue inwardly, but replied respectfully, "Yes."

Unfortunately, reality left him no choice but to accept it.

Inside Lin Le's newly chosen cave dwelling, Lin Le and Ling Muzhu looked at each other awkwardly, because after Xu Lingzi entrusted Ling Muzhu to Lin Le, he asked the two of them to stay together temporarily.

He wasn't afraid of what Lin Le, this young and strong man, might do, or rather, that was exactly what he hoped for.

Lin Le was quite nonchalant: "Senior Sister, what martial arts, Taoist techniques, or soul-refining diagrams have you practiced before?"

Ling Muzhu thought for a moment and shook her head, saying, "I have never practiced martial arts, but I have the Nine Profound Heart Sutra in Taoist arts, as for the Soul Refining Diagram..."

Speaking of the Soul Refining Diagram, Ling Muzhu hesitated slightly: "I have practiced a Soul Refining Diagram called Taiyin Yinxuan Palace." "What level did you reach?" Lin Le asked.

“But you’ve only just reached the realm of the five senses,” Ling Muzhu said.

Lin Le nodded slightly: "That's perfect for building a solid foundation. Senior Sister, let me teach you a set of martial arts techniques first."

"Martial arts?" Ling Muzhu was about to say that it wasn't necessary, but she seemed to think of something and swallowed her words back.

She realized that the more she practiced, the slower her cultivation would progress, which would mean that the time for her to cultivate with Lin Le would be delayed.

Ling Muzhu nodded and said, "Okay."

"This technique is called Taihuang Refining Form." Lin Le pointed his finger and transmitted Taihuang Refining Form into Ling Muzhu's mind.

It's called the Phoenix Refining Form, but it's actually a variant of the original Thirteen Revolutions of the Heavenly Battle.

Lin Le has only been cultivating Taoism for half a year, but in the span of a few years, he has already lived for over a thousand years.

Therefore, his martial arts skills had long since reached their peak, and it was extremely easy for Lin Le to slightly modify the Thirteen Turns of Dou Tian to suit Ling Muzhu.

Lin Le then took out three jade bottles, replaced the three kinds of precious liquids with them, and dripped them into the bottles respectively.

Seeing that Ling Muzhu had come to her senses, Lin Le handed over the three jade bottles: "Senior Sister, these three bottles of precious liquid correspond to the three paths of cultivation: Qi, Essence, and Spirit. Don't use the wrong one."

Ling Muzhu declined, "No need, I still have my own cultivation resources."

As she was saying this, she reached for her storage bag, only to find it empty.

Ling Muzhu's face immediately turned somewhat embarrassed.

"Take it, Senior Sister. This is also a secret medicine needed for martial arts cultivation," Lin Le said with a light laugh.

Looking at the three jade bottles, Ling Muzhu finally accepted them: "Alright, I'll make it up to you after we get out."

"Hmm." Lin Le remained noncommittal.

"Then I'll go cultivate now," Lin Le said. "Senior Sister, you can practice in the guest room."

“Okay.” Ling Muzhu nodded, and then she watched Lin Le enter a quiet room.

Looking down at the jade bottle in his hand, then at the dusty door, a trace of sorrow appeared on his face.

Inside the quiet room, Lin Le breathed heavily, and the Yin-Yang Twin Swords transformed into a star array, enveloping him to prevent the old turtle from discovering the truth.

Lin Le then took out the captured golden pills, patted them into the embroidered ball, and then piled up the spiritual weapons and magical artifacts to the side for the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Spear to consume.

Lin Le then took out the spirit stone and began to refine the spiritual energy to improve his cultivation.

However, he only used half of it and released the other half, in order to create the illusion that he had used the Transformation Technique.

After estimating his speed, Lin Le walked out of the meditation room after a while. His aura had dropped to the third level of the Golden Core stage. He turned around and sealed the meditation room to prevent the spiritual energy from leaking out.

After he walked out, Lin Le felt a divine sense sweep over him.

Someone in the shadows nodded slightly; he appreciated Lin Le's sensible manner.

In the guest room, as her position changed, Ling Muzhu felt the medicinal power of the precious liquid given to her by Lin Le gradually seeping into her bones, even changing some of the shapes of her bones to make them more suitable for this Taihuang Refining Form.

Ling Muzhu was quite astonished and even shocked by the fact that it could change the physical constitution required for martial arts on its own, because she had never heard of such a precious medicine in the world.

The most common precious medicines are nothing more than directly changing one or more of one's physical attributes, and they cannot possibly be changed to meet the needs of martial arts.

Ling Muzhu was somewhat worried about her wallet, as she felt that each drop of the precious liquid in the jade bottle was probably worth no less than a grade nine pill.

There were two more bottles of similar precious liquid, and they were full.

Although she was a disciple of Master Xu Lingzi, she was practically just a pretty face, and Master Xu Lingzi only gave her the salary of an inner disciple.

As for salaries, they are only enough to cover basic living expenses. For someone like her who is "unworthy of her position," they only make her slightly wealthier than ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Sweat rolled down her brows. Ling Muzhu finished her cultivation and prepared to take a bath. Although she could use a cleansing spell to cleanse her body, bathing was one of the few ways she could enjoy life in recent years, so she had always maintained the habit of bathing.

When Ling Muzhu opened the door, she was taken aback because Lin Le was already sitting in the hall.

She then realized that she was not in her own cave dwelling, but in Lin Le's cave dwelling.

Lin Le, who was drinking tea, looked up and his eyes suddenly went blank.

Ling Muzhu's cloud-like hair, which was originally neatly coiled at the back of her head, now had a few strands that playfully broke free from the hairband's restraint, sticking damply to her slender neck. Her elegant swan-like neck, after being soaked with sweat, gained a touch of oily sheen, making her look extremely alluring.

Her purple dress was already soaked with sweat. The silk fabric was thin and light, and now it clung to her voluptuous and alluring figure like a second skin, outlining her hourglass-shaped curves without reservation.

Lin Le's gaze unconsciously fell on her cherry blossom-pink lips. It was winter, and the temperature was already low, not to mention that she was now on a high mountain where she could see through the clouds, where the temperature was even lower.

With each breath she took, white steam rose from her mouth and nose, complementing the flush on her face from the intense exercise...

Lin Le took a deep breath, turned his head, and felt that even the legendary femme fatale Daji from his previous life was no more than this.

Seeing Lin Le staring straight at her, Ling Muzhu felt a little shy. However, after Lin Le turned away with a look of "disdain," she felt a surge of dissatisfaction and wanted to walk over quickly so that Lin Le could see her clearly.

However, her upbringing prevented her from having this rebellious thought. She said, "I'm going to take a shower," and then turned and walked towards the bathtub.

Whether she genuinely forgot or simply didn't have the habit, Ling Muzhu forgot to activate the silencing array after entering the room containing the bath.

Hearing the rustling sounds around him, Lin Le couldn't help but take another sip of tea to cool down.

Inside the bath, Ling Muzhu lightly touched the water with her foot to make sure the temperature was suitable before slowly sinking into the water.

Feeling the warmth from the hot water, Ling Muzhu let out a soft sigh and a groan: "Mmm~"

Lin Le's hand trembled involuntarily.

Ling Muzhu massaged her body with her hands, and she had to admit that the Phoenix Refining Technique given to her by Lin Le was really suitable for her.

She had only cultivated a few times and had already achieved minor success. With the help of the precious elixir he gave her, she had now developed a thin veil of qi and blood and become a first-level martial artist.

“The sagging problem here has also improved.” Ling Muzhu stood up and gently lifted her exaggerated pectoral muscles.

Previously, because her breasts were too big, the sagging problem was quite serious. However, now that her skin and muscles have been exercised, they have tightened up, resulting in a less noticeable sagging.

But what's the use of improving the problem if nobody uses it anyway?

Ling Muzhu lamented to herself.

Suddenly, she thought of Lin Le, and the taut muscles outlined on Lin Le's collar.

Ling Muzhu suddenly bit her lip slightly. It must feel really good.

Without realizing it, her fingers were pressed against a crevice underwater.

The sound of a kitten's meow rang out, and Lin Le was immediately stunned. He immediately slipped into the quiet room.

Leprechaun!
