Chapter Thirty-Four: The Crystal Body
As I spoke with the Ice Empress, my eyes subtly followed Xiu Lan,observing her every movement in secret.
I chuckled softly, my voice carrying a mix of playful teasing and unwavering confidence:
Well then, my dear Green Wife…Once I overcome the Lightning Tribulation, I'll become a spirit beast a hundred thousand years old.
That will be my true victory… and when that happens, you'll officially become my wife.
While I spoke, I carefully watched her reaction — the rhythm of her breathing, the faint tremor in her shoulders, and that flustered,uncertain look in her eyes.
She was clearly affected by the Enhanced Opposite-Sex Affinity Aura that surrounded me.
✨💫 Enhanced Opposite-Sex Affinity Aura 💫✨
A distinctive skill that grants its user a supernatural natural charm,making it effortlessly easy to attract the attention, trust, and affection of the opposite sex.
This ability does not rely on illusion or mental domination — instead, it amplifies the user's personal aura, heightening their presence, body language, and the magnetic charisma that radiates from within.
It emits subtle waves of allure that influence the subconscious mind, making others feel a strange sense of closeness, as though they've known the user for a long time.
Many might assume this ability is similar to the Opposite-Sex Attraction Aura — but that would be a grave mistake.
🔥 Opposite-Sex Attraction Aura 🔥
A completely different kind of skill — it grants the user the power to radiate an enchanting, captivating energy that extends up to a hundred meters.
It awakens the deepest desires of those nearby, amplifying the attraction any woman feels under its influence until it becomes an instinctive pull — one she cannot resist and willingly surrenders to.
However, it does not create emotions out of nothing — it merely awakens and magnifies the buried desires that already exist within her until they reach their peak.
Simply put, the emotions a woman feels under the effect of the Opposite-Sex Attraction Aura are not illusions.
They are her true emotions — emotions she might have buried deep inside, ignored, or deemed unimportant… or perhaps ones that were just fleeting sparks of feeling.
Yet, it is impossible for any woman to exist without a single trace of reaction — even if she has a cold heart, she is still a woman.
It's certain that deep within her lies something — a spark that stirs in response to a man who exudes the essence of true masculinity.
Especially if that man possesses what most women desire: appearance, strength, confidence… or simply that raw masculine presence that ignites something hidden within her.
And that is where the true power of the Opposite-Sex Attraction Aura lies — as long as the spark exists, its influence will work upon her, no matter who she is.
I watched as Xiu Lan grew visibly more relaxed, her movements softer, her gaze drawn toward me — it confirmed that the Enhanced Opposite-Sex Affinity Aura was functioning with astonishing effectiveness.
And it wasn't any different with the Ice Empress.
Despite her cold demeanor and regal bearing, I noticed a subtle shift in her expression.
She was looking at me with quiet intrigue, as if trying to comprehend the transformation that had taken place within me.
Even with her usual composure, I could sense that her body had momentarily eased — subtly affected by the affinity aura that seeped slowly into the depths of her subconscious.
As snowflakes drifted gently around us, I couldn't help but think: If even a woman like the Empress could be swayed this way… then how would an ordinary woman — one without any power or authority — react?
At that moment, I turned to Xiu Lan and smiled.
She smiled back, her tone filled with warmth and playful teasing as she said,My dear, you haven't changed at all… You still look as charming as ever. You still have that natural power to draw women toward you without even trying. Even my sister couldn't resist your captivating charm!"
I laughed lightly, replying in a playful yet confident tone,So you're saying I'm charming by nature? Well, I'm glad I look this good in my wife's eyes. And even happier that you don't seem to mind other women being around me."
But before Xiu Lan could respond, the Ice Empress interrupted us — her voice calm yet edged with a chilling sharpness, carrying a hint of unspoken jealousy buried beneath her icy composure.
The Ice Empress said coldly, her words cutting through the air like frost: I don't believe you can affect me that easily.
I looked at her and smiled calmly without replying.
There was no need for words — everything was already clear in her eyes.
She had felt the effect of the aura, whether she wished to admit it or not.
Xiu Lan… and even the Ice Empress…It seemed that my new power now carried an influence that could no longer be ignored.
After speaking with them and explaining what I had told my mother and Aislin earlier, I smiled faintly and said,Anyway… I have a gift for both of you.
I extended my hand forward, releasing thin threads of shimmering blue energy.
In an instant, I transferred the Crystal Body Technique to the Ice Empress, Xiu Lan, as well as to my mother and Aislin.
Streams of knowledge flowed directly into their minds — every motion, every energy route, every secret embedded within the technique.
When it was done, I spoke to them in a serious tone: Soon, Aislin and I will undergo the Heaven Tribulation.
As for you all, you must use the lightning to purify your bodies through this technique.
According to the Su Family records, anyone who succeeds in refining their body with lightning will gain the Lightning Element itself.
But no one has ever succeeded before… because they never had the right opportunity.
The Crystal BodyThis technique doesn't just grant you the Lightning Element — it also creates a unique physique: the Crystal Body.This technique doesn't just grant you the Lightning Element — it also creates a unique physique: the Crystal Body.
In any case, the quality of the lightning element you obtain depends on the kind of lightning you train with.
That's why it's best to use Heavenly Tribulation Lightning — it's the purest and most powerful of all.
As for me… I'll make it my primary element —Heavenly Tribulation Lightning
Then I lifted my gaze toward them and added,The first stage of this technique is known as Crystal Skin.
A brief silence followed before Xiu Lan spoke up with cheerful spontaneity and a playful laugh,My dear, this technique sounds amazing! Does that mean I'll become shinier and more radiant from now on?
I smiled and replied calmly,It might happen… or it might not.
The first stage hardens the skin like crystal, and in rare cases, it can produce a faint sheen similar to that of real crystal.
The second stage," I continued, "is Crystal Bone — where the bones themselves become denser and stronger.
And finally, the third stage… Complete Crystal Body.
At that point, it's not just the skin or bones — every cell in the body becomes solid and brimming with pure, refined energy, just like genuine crystal.
I looked at all of them, my eyes radiating calmness and certainty.
In any case… this technique is the Su Family's greatest treasure within the Celestial Fate World.
Then I turned to Aislin, speaking to her in a calm yet firm tone,Aislin… let's move away for a bit and begin summoning the Lightning Tribulation.
We distanced ourselves from the others, heading toward an open area far from the Ice Scorpion Clan's members.
The air there was clearer, sharper — the heavy clouds above began to gather, layer upon layer, as though the heavens themselves could sense what we were about to do.
When we reached the perfect spot above the frozen island, our eyes met — a silent exchange of understanding between two souls bound by the same destiny.
I gave her a faint, confident nod and said with a quiet smile,
"Alright, my dear… let's begin!
