Both time-traveled characters ended up as villainous henchmen.

Chapter 137 Testing Heaven and Earth

After briefly comforting Qin Weiyu, Xie Yushan told Qin Weiyu to go to the alchemy room to cultivate on her own, while she stayed behind to talk to He Nian alone.

Xie Yushan looked at He Nian's calm face and didn't know what to say for a moment.

He Nian had learned about the Thunder Dragon Primordial Body when she first joined the Hidden Moon Sect. At the time, she thought it was just a spiritual body that was more suitable for dual cultivation, but she never expected it to have such heaven-defying effects.

Could it be that the Nascent Soul elders within the sect already know?

But if they already knew, how could they possibly still act this way within the sect without any regard for the consequences?

Even though she didn't pay much attention to sect affairs outside Tianqiong Peak, Xie Yushan knew that the sect's higher-ups encouraged He Nian to actively seek out a cultivation partner.

If they truly knew that the Thunder Dragon Essence Body possessed such effects, how could they have allowed He Nian, a child who had only recently embarked on the path of cultivation, to act so willfully?

Wouldn't that harm He Nian?

After much deliberation, Xie Yushan decided to personally take He Nian to find the Nascent Soul Ancestor of the sect, who was also He Nian's nominal Nascent Soul Master.

Unexpectedly, just as Xie Yushan arrived at He Nian's side, preparing to use her golden core magic to carry him away from the cave,

The moment her Golden Core power came into contact with the Foundation Establishment power emanating from He Nian's surroundings, the two merged together without any hindrance.

This is different from other Golden Core cultivators using their magical power to suppress the magical power of Foundation Establishment cultivators; it is a more harmonious and natural fusion.

Furthermore, this fused magical power naturally blended into Xie Yushan's original Golden Core magical power flow.

The two are perfectly harmonious and there is no barrier between them at all.

Even after He Nian's scattered Foundation Establishment power entered, her own main cultivation technique, "Heavenly Star Lotus Illumination Technique," started to operate spontaneously. At the same time, an unprecedented feeling of smoothness and comfort emanated from the golden core in her lower abdomen and instantly spread throughout her entire body.

In an instant, Xie Yushan was completely immersed in the spontaneous operation of this cultivation technique. The spiritual energy gathered around her by the spirit-gathering array rapidly converged on her. She hardly needed to consciously breathe and refine it; all this spiritual energy of heaven and earth transformed into strands of pure magic power, which merged into her flawed golden core.

Xie Yushan felt as if she had entered a great opportunity that was almost like an epiphany, and her body was no longer bound by anything around her.

She seemed to transform into a celestial lotus spirit, immersed in the celestial energy of countless stars, gradually breaking free from the hardships and shackles accumulated over the previous three hundred years of her life, and soaring towards the endless sea of ​​stars.

When she came to her senses from this special state of enlightenment, she was surprised to find that she had reached out and grabbed He Nian, and the two were now incredibly close.

Moreover, because the cultivation technique was operating on its own, the water vapor in the waters surrounding the pavilion was also attracted by her, wetting her lotus-patterned long dress and revealing her inner clothing, showing off her proud figure.

Xie Yushan immediately exclaimed in surprise, quickly shaking off He Nian's hand that was gripping her shoulder, and at the same time using magic to dry the moisture on her clothes.

As soon as she removed her hand from He Nian's shoulder, He Nian collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness.

Only then did Xie Yushan suddenly realize that He Nian's magical energy was almost depleted.

At this moment, she no longer cared about concealing her exposed body, nor did she dare to use her magic to touch He Nian. She could only bend down and gently pick up He Nian, then quickly run towards the room where He Nian was resting.

Even though her body had some excessively intimate contact with He Nian during the process, she didn't care at the moment.

Xie Yushan was very clear about what He Nian meant to the current Hidden Moon Sect, especially given the powerful effect of his Thunder Dragon Body.

If she were to unintentionally damage her foundation and spiritual essence today, she would be doomed.

At that time, not only her, but also Qin Weiyu, and even the Xie clan, which she no longer had much blood relation with, would be uprooted by the enraged Nascent Soul Ancestor!

At this moment, He Nian, who was lying "unconscious" in Xie Yushan's full body, had only one thought flash through her mind.

Plans are in place!

Afterwards, Xie Yushan took He Nian back to her residence. After activating the room's array, she quickly took out her treasured tonifying and nourishing medicine and began to personally heal the "unconscious" He Nian.

Xie Yushan was so busy throughout the whole process that she didn't even have time to say a word to Qin Weiyu.

In the end, Qin Weiyu left the cave alone after seeing that her master and He Nian had not appeared.

Xie Yushan's treatment of He Nian, after costing her a significant portion of her savings, finally brought He Nian back from a coma.

However, He Nian's "state" was still somewhat different from when she first entered her cave.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion from the Nascent Soul Ancestor and other Golden Core Elders, which could cost her her life, Xie Yushan made a bold decision: to leave He Nian in her cave and personally care for her until she fully recovered.

However, ordinary healing methods are not very effective for treating Lei Xiaolong Yuan Ti, a special dual cultivation body.

After consulting numerous ancient texts, Xie Yushan finally made up her mind to use the dual cultivation method to heal He Nian's injuries.

Of course, the dual cultivation method here is not the kind that involves true openness and the union of yin and yang, but rather a less explicit way to indirectly heal one's thoughts.

The rest of the story is quite simple. Through daily treatment and healing, He Nian gradually opened Xie Yushan's heart, which had been closed for many years, and resolved her long-standing inner conflict.

Xie Yushan also came into contact with He Nian's Thunder Dragon Primordial Body aura during this process, and by the time she realized it, she was already deeply immersed in it.

They were so engrossed in it that they couldn't extricate themselves.

He Nian also successfully experienced all of Xie Yushan's cultivation insights since embarking on the path of immortality.

After successfully capturing Xie Yushan, He Nian temporarily stopped experimenting on expanding his special dual cultivation method and instead entered a period of stable cultivation.

Having experienced the realm of a Golden Core cultivator ahead of time, He Nian gained a deeper understanding of his own Thunder Dragon Essence Body and the rules of heaven and earth in the mortal world.

And gradually, he had an even bolder idea.

Since his Thunder Dragon Essence Body can share the talent of his cultivation partner during the Yin-Yang fusion process of dual cultivation, and exert his own influence on the other party through dual cultivation.

Then why can't the object of this "dual cultivation" be this very world?

The process by which cultivators inhale and exhale the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is a natural process of exchanging and merging power with heaven and earth.

If we view cultivators and the world through the lens of the Yin-Yang imagery in the dual cultivation method, and combine it with the Thunder Dragon Primordial Body that carries the essential power of the Black Mist Space, wouldn't it be possible to create an extremely powerful, supreme true skill that points directly to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth?

There has never been a Dao Ancestor in the path of dual cultivation, so why can't it be He Nian?

He Nian became more and more excited as he thought about it, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. Soon he began to collect various cultivation manuals and secret books from the Hidden Moon Sect, as well as books that explained the laws of heaven and earth, and began his path of creating his own methods.

Finally, before the Blood Forbidden Land opened, He Nian also completed the creation of his supreme dual cultivation technique.

Its name is "Haotian Daojing"!
