People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

Her bones seemed to be growing taller quietly, her body growing evenly, and the lines of her cheeks, which were originally a little immature, became soft and delicate, shedding the youthful immaturity and excessive innocence and liveliness that belonged to a girl.

Instead, there is a gradually emerging heroic spirit of a young girl, and an indescribable, hazy and alluring charm, like a budding flower that is about to slowly unfold its most gorgeous petals.

When Zi Yan's body shape changed to a certain extent, the remarkable growth finally stopped and no longer continued.

Xiao Ling understood in her heart that this was probably because the medicinal effect of the transformation grass she took when she was young had completely dissipated.

The Zi Yan that appeared before him at this moment had a face and figure that perfectly matched what she should look like at her age. She had shed the childishness that was forcibly maintained by the elixir, revealing the appearance she should have at this stage.

However, outward stillness does not mean inner silence.

On the contrary, the changes in Zi Yan's body are currently in full swing, with no signs of stopping.

The pure purple and gold energies, like a bursting dam tide, continuously poured into her body without stopping for a moment.

When the energy in the body gathered to a critical point, the phantoms of the Taixu Ancient Dragon and the Ancient Sky Phoenix hovering around Zi Yan once again let out deafening roars and cries.

This time, it was no longer the previous confrontation in momentum, but was filled with the desire for catharsis and integration after the power reached its peak.

Amidst the roars and cries, two shadowy figures flashed, and like two streams of light, they instantly sank into Zi Yan's body, as if returning to their origin.

At the moment the shadow disappeared, Zi Yan's hair, which had been hanging quietly, suddenly fluttered as if it had come to life.

The tremendous energy in her body could no longer be completely contained, and it burst out like a volcanic eruption.

This powerful energy fluctuation not only made her hair dance wildly, but also caused the surrounding space to tremble slightly, as if it would be torn apart by this force in the next moment.

As this energy flooded her body like a broken dam, Zi Yan felt an indescribable discomfort. Her petite body felt as if it were filled with invisible power, and every cell in her body was crying out.

Her body reacted slightly. First, her hands and arms began to tremble uncontrollably, and then her long, straight legs began to sway back and forth.

And her face, which originally looked a little strange due to the infusion of energy, also twitched slightly, as if she was enduring some kind of severe impact.

At this critical moment, the eyes that had been tightly closed, and the eyelids that were like sleeping amethysts, slowly opened.

First, a gap appeared, and then two dazzling amethysts were completely revealed before his eyes.

Zi Yan was still a little dazed after waking up from a deep sleep. It was difficult for her to make out the situation around her, and her thoughts were still confused.

However, when she saw Xiao Ling staring at her with worry not far away, she couldn't help but feel relieved at the sight of that familiar face.

Subconsciously, she slowly raised her right hand and reached towards Xiao Ling. She opened and closed her lips and said in a somewhat weak voice, "Xiao Ling, I feel uncomfortable..."

Seeing this, Xiao Ling's heart tightened and he moved almost immediately. With a flash of his body, he teleported in front of Zi Yan.

He held Zi Yan's waist firmly with one hand, and gently stroked her cheek with the other hand with great tenderness.

Xiao Ling lowered his head, his eyes naturally meeting Zi Yan's. His voice was filled with a barely perceptible urgency: "Zi Yan, what's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable? How can I help you?"

However, Zi Yan did not respond. The next moment, she raised her head slightly, and her soft lips, with a hint of warmth, actually took the initiative to press against Xiao Ling's lips.

Chapter 636 Energy Transmission

Xiao Ling was caught off guard by this sudden change. Zi Yan's sudden initiative made him a little stunned for a moment, even slightly stunned.

He stopped almost subconsciously, and Zi Yan's face at the moment was clearly reflected in his deep eyes.

Almost immediately, he opened his eyes wide and fixed his gaze on Zi Yan's face.

He saw that her eyes, which were usually as clear as amethyst, were half-open and half-closed, but now they were covered with a thin, hazy mist, as if she had just woken up from a beautiful dream and was still a little confused and unreal.

Her cheeks were stained with two abnormal blushes, like the most beautiful peach blossoms in winter, with a slight glow of heat.

At the same time, Xiao Ling also keenly sensed that an unimaginable powerful energy, like boiling lava, was rampaging in Zi Yan's fragile body, almost tearing her delicate body apart.

This force was vast and wild, as if it would burst Zi Yan's body, but she miraculously maintained a perfect limit so that this violent energy would not really hurt herself.

However, this was by no means a comfortable experience. From her dazed look and flushed cheeks, it could be seen that bearing such a powerful impact must have been painful and unspeakable for her.

Although this energy was surging in Zi Yan's body, the violent aura inevitably escaped, causing Xiao Ling, who was closest to her, to feel a palpitation.

He subconsciously reached out, wanting to hug her tighter, but he saw that the energy around her was like a wild horse out of control, overflowing and rushing, and the space seemed to be slightly distorted because of it.

Her body also seemed a little unstable and shaky as the energy in her body surged, as if she was about to be swallowed by this force in the next moment.

Xiao Ling's expression became somewhat stiff due to the violent energy he felt, and his breathing became somewhat rapid. He could clearly feel how this energy should not be underestimated for Zi Yan now.

At this moment, Xiao Ling keenly realized that a small part of the powerful energy that seemed to him to be about to tear Zi Yan apart actually turned into a trickle along with their tightly pressed lips and quietly seeped into his body.

The feeling was subtle and strange, like an invisible bridge quietly built between the two of them.

The energy entering his body was completely different from the violent energy he had felt before.

It was an indescribable purity, like the clearest mountain spring.

It is not at all aggressive. Instead, it is like a close friend who understands his needs best. It flows naturally to his limbs and bones, bringing waves of indescribable comfort wherever it passes, as if even the deepest part of his bones is gently soaked and washed by this warm current.

Xiao Ling's Dou Qi, which had been a little sluggish due to consumption, was nourished by this pure energy and recovered and circulated at an astonishing speed, like a dead tree coming back to life, becoming full and active again.

Not only that, he could even clearly feel that his physique seemed to be quietly undergoing some subtle changes at this moment, as if it was gently wrapped and reinforced by a layer of invisible gauze, becoming tougher and undergoing a special transformation.

What surprised him even more was that the Qingtian Hualong Jue technique running in his body seemed to be attracted and catalyzed by this energy, and was further improved.

He could clearly feel that his own cultivation and physical condition had been substantially strengthened and improved at this moment.

This sudden change made Xiao Ling a little stunned. He had never expected that Zi Yan's seemingly confused and proactive kiss would bring such an incredible effect.

While Xiao Ling was concentrating on feeling the earth-shaking changes in his body, he also did not forget to use his keen perception to carefully investigate Zi Yan's condition.

He discovered that as the pure energy in his body surged, some synchronized changes seemed to be taking place in Zi Yan's body.

Part of the energy that had been running rampant in her body, causing her unbearable pain, seemed to have found an outlet and quietly shifted as their lips touched each other.

Sure enough, he was pleasantly surprised to see that Zi Yan's blush, which had originally appeared somewhat sickly due to the energy impact, seemed to have actually eased at this moment, and the layer of misty fog had also faded a little.

Her tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and her body, which had seemed a little unstable due to the energy riot, now became much more stable. Even her breathing seemed to become more even, and she was obviously feeling much more comfortable.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling instantly understood.

He realized that Zi Yan's sudden initiative was not a confused act without reason, but that she was instinctively, or perhaps under some guidance, sending him a signal for help amid the severe pain and discomfort brought about by the energy shock.

Zi Yan wanted to use his body to share some of the unbearable tremendous energy in her body, so as to relieve the pain that was almost tearing her apart.

After all, such vast and wild energy was all accumulated in her body. Even though she was of the royal bloodline of the Taixu Ancient Dragon, she could not avoid feeling unbearable discomfort.

Now, after transferring some of her energy to him, Zi Yan naturally felt much more relaxed and comfortable.

Xiao Ling nodded secretly, then suddenly realized something. Come to think of it, the source of this energy must be extraordinary.

The birth of a single Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit requires the absorption and fusion of the entire body essence of a ninth-order Taixu Ancient Dragon and a ninth-order Ancient Sky Phoenix before it can be conceived and formed.

The energy contained in the fruit born in this way is naturally so huge that it is unimaginable.

What's more, the pure energy of the ninth-order Heavenly Demon Phoenix magic core that he refined on this trip was finally injected into Zi Yan's body, and further merged with the energy of the Taixu Ancient Dragon and the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix.

In this way, the energy contained in this fruit is no longer a simple superposition, but the product of the deep fusion of three top energy sources, and its power and complexity are doubled.

No wonder Zi Yan was under such tremendous pressure and even had to ask him for help in such a strange way.

Xiao Ling thought to himself that with the addition of the ninth-rank Heavenly Demon Phoenix Demon Core, the situation was very different.

Even if Zi Yan transferred some of that vast energy to him, in terms of her cultivation improvement alone, the gains she would gain this time would definitely far exceed the effects on the original timeline.

Not to mention, the existence of this ninth-order magic core is like a key catalyst, which can effectively harmonize and guide the two mixed energies of the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit that are a fusion of the Taixu Ancient Dragon and the Ancient Sky Phoenix.

In this way, Zi Yan's efficiency and effect in absorbing the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit will naturally reach a more ideal and perfect state.

The effect of this tempering of his physique and the further awakening and improvement of his own bloodline will undoubtedly far exceed what could be achieved in the original timeline.

As some of the violent energy entered Xiao Ling's body through that strange way, the pain in Zi Yan's body that was almost tearing her apart seemed to be temporarily relieved. The blush on her face gradually faded, and the frown between her brows also relaxed a little.

Feeling the sudden decrease in internal pressure, Zi Yan seemed to have used up her last bit of strength, and she took the initiative to leave Xiao Ling's lips with a slight tremor.

She breathed slightly, and her eyes, which had been closed, slowly opened.

Although her eyes were still a little hazy, as if she had not yet fully recovered from the exhausting action and the energy fluctuations still remaining in her body, she was undoubtedly much clearer and more awake than before.

Seeing this, Xiao Ling immediately reached out and carefully supported the frail Zi Yan, letting her lean against his chest. He lowered his head with some concern, staring intently into her eyes, which had just regained some clarity, and asked softly, "Zi Yan, how are you now? Are you feeling better?"

Zi Yan felt a little embarrassed by Xiao Ling's direct gaze, and her cheeks flushed slightly. She nodded slightly in a daze and made a soft response: "Hmm..."

After a pause, she continued:

"I feel much better now. Before... the energy in my body was too violent, and it felt... too uncomfortable. If it weren't for you... I wouldn't want to go through that kind of pain again. Even if my cultivation level will improve significantly later, I still don't want to suffer that much."

As she spoke, a faint smile appeared on Zi Yan's face. She raised her hand slightly, with a faint but clear warmth, and gently placed it on Xiao Ling's face.

Her voice was soft, with a hint of dependence and gratitude:

"Also, Xiao Ling, you must have put a lot of thought into solving my problem. It must have been very dangerous, right? I don't want you to work in vain... Consider that energy you just gave me as a reward. You must accept it well, and don't think you're taking advantage of me... This is what I want, and it's what you deserve."

Hearing Zi Yan's frank and slightly playful words, and looking into her clear eyes that were filled with a hint of dependence, Xiao Ling felt his heart warm, his tense nerves relaxed, and a gentle smile involuntarily appeared at the corners of his mouth.

He shook his head helplessly, his tone tinged with fondness as he whispered, "You're such a silly girl. The energy has been very helpful to you, and it's the key to your advancement. Besides, how can one cultivate without experiencing hardships? How can one not endure some suffering? How come your temper hasn't changed even now?"

After a slight pause, Xiao Ling spoke again, his eyes becoming serious: "But I accept your kindness. Don't worry, I will make good use of the energy you gave me."

"According to my estimation, the energy you just passed on to me may not allow me to ascend directly to the Dou Sheng level, but it should be more than enough to reach the Semi-Saint level."

Seeing that Xiao Ling didn't care too much about this matter, Zi Yan's heart was completely put down and she breathed a sigh of relief.

She had originally been worried that Xiao Ling would feel guilty, or even blame himself, for absorbing her energy, but now it seemed that she was completely overthinking it.

Come to think of it, with the close relationship between the two of them, they wouldn't be afraid even when it comes to life and death, so why would they bother about the ownership of such a small amount of energy?

Seeing Xiao Ling thinking seriously, Zi Yan's feeling of uneasiness and fragility caused by the energy backlash disappeared, replaced by her usual playfulness and a little cunning.

She even raised her eyebrows inadvertently and said in a joking tone:

"Of course! I have to take care of you, too. I have to make you keep up with me, right? If you don't improve your cultivation quickly, by the time I've absorbed all this energy and my cultivation has greatly increased, I'm afraid you won't be my opponent with just a flick of my finger. I'll teach you a lesson then."

As she spoke, she winked mischievously, as if she had already foreseen that in the future she would be much more powerful than Xiao Ling and would easily defeat Xiao Ling.

After being playfully teased by Zi Yan, Xiao Ling, who had seemed a little solemn because of what had just happened, looked much more relaxed, with a helpless yet doting smile on his lips.

He followed Zi Yan's words and agreed half seriously and half jokingly: "Yes, yes, you are right."

He deliberately prolonged his tone and continued, "When you have made great progress in your cultivation and become a powerful figure, please do not forget me. By then, I will have to cling to you tightly and take advantage of you, otherwise I will never be able to keep up with you."

Hearing Xiao Ling's joking words, Zi Yan's already bright eyes sparkled with joy, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up, becoming even more playful than before.

Although Zi Yan has now transformed into an adult woman with a slim figure and a unique heroic temperament, her lively and agile, even somewhat childish personality has not changed at all.

However, this side of him would naturally only be revealed without reservation in front of the closest people like Xiao Ling.

After some chatting and laughing, Xiao Ling's expression became serious again. He looked at Zi Yan, changed the subject, and said solemnly:
