Everything in the world consists of a completely inconsistent mixture of Yin and Yang, except for one thing that must maintain all the foundations of life: the Universe. The energy of Yin and Yang produces not only the Universe, but everything.
However, the Yin and Yang that created the Universe no longer exist; it was an extremely primal energy that came and then vanished over time. But what remains of the energy that birthed the Universe is called True Qi. It is the true cultivation of the soul and body—the most sublime and the most powerful. The cultivation of True Qi is nothing more than myths and tales told about the golden ages of cultivation.
But Ni Ni Layan, who ruled all the realms of the Upper World, found no traces of this extremely mysterious type of supernatural power, the power of the beginning of the Universe.
Is it truly real? The general public knew only of "Ordinary Qi," which is a fusion of unequal particles of Yang and Yin.
A cultivator purifies a Qi particle from the traces of the element they do not need; the process expands to include billions of invisible particles, and this process is called cultivation. There are people who can attract Qi particles that carry a larger proportion of their chosen element; this is called spiritual affinity or spiritual talent.
True Qi, as the legends say, was the perfect and flawless fusion of the Yin and Yang elements. If you wanted it to be Yang, it would be; if you wanted it to act as Yin, it would be peerless.
But whoever cultivates this must be qualified. Does this screen display these powers so simply? The display screen before her held only one option; it was as if she had to agree immediately. It glowed like an offer that could not be missed.
So this thing is this man's tool to help me, as he claimed. She wanted to believe he was just joking, but she felt an itch in her hand.
She had lost her cultivation at the Divine Transcendence Stage from her previous life during the reincarnation process. The reincarnation technique said that cultivation could be restored, but she had only recovered her spiritual foundation: her Immortal Heart, her Golden Kidneys, and some of the powerful Yang she possessed. All of this was different from the cultivation power she used to have.
If she possessed this cosmic foundation, spiritual cultivation, lust, or belonging would not matter. With a wheel churning necessarily with the scythes of the forgotten cosmic energy, the eras would be reshaped by her milk-white hands, and logic would be redefined in her favor. She would become extremely dangerous—a weapon.
Her cultivation would become different; her path would become the widest. When she imagined it, she found the path of greatness extending unpredictably.
"You are a System. You seem to me to be nothing more than a follower. Your master will submit under my hand again."
She was thinking of Morse. Surely he was one of her loyal followers in her previous life; he died by those who betrayed her, and now he has returned to make her the absolute Queen again. No problem, she will care for him well from now on.
"Show us what you have here."
{Level One of True Qi Condensation... Complete.}
Ni Ni Layan felt a surge of decadence—energy boiling like a volcano inside her made her Immortal Heart revive as if it had been hit by an electric shock that brought it back to life.
The energy came with a shiver of pleasure—extremely enjoyable. Surely she was a competent lady to create a follower with this efficiency, who could provide her with this energy.
Ni Ni Layan believed that this was the powerful man who saved her in her previous life. But when she thought about it, even that entity who possessed the greatest Yang energy she had ever seen did not have this energy.
Surely her little follower obtained that man's legacy and obtained the System that was able to provide her with this energy. She cannot be blamed, for she now feels that greatness that every great person enjoys when they find that their glory is returning once more.
While Ni Ni Layan was bathing outside, Morse was extremely nervous and felt suspicious when he thought about how to convince or even tell Ni Ni Layan about his plans to take her back with him to the Xuan family estate.
"I must prepare to return."
Instead of sitting here, he decided to return earlier than he had planned a while ago—instead of them announcing his death or disappearance and his inheritance, and even his underwear, being stolen. When he opened the door carrying his clothes in his hand, he found that Ni Ni Layan had cleaned her body of his fluids. He thanked God that she wasn't angry.
But why did he feel that her looks toward him had changed somewhat? He didn't care.
He gave her the Yin pathways, even though he felt he was somewhat deceived and that she hadn't changed. But he felt a cold aura as he passed by her.
Morse headed toward the nearby river, soaked his clothes, and began scrubbing them seriously to remove his fluids. When he found that he was decent enough, he returned to the cave. He found that Ni Ni Layan already had a clothesline.
When he entered the cave, he found her sitting and meditating.
She was extremely focused. But what was most good was that she had finally put on her clothes. Finally, this girl wore clothes instead of walking around naked everywhere. As he had just invented: the first step in the journey of chastity begins with wearing clothes. He didn't have any money, but he decided to sell some things he had to buy outfits for Ni Ni Layan.
Although Ni Ni Layan's appearance in clothes was extremely attractive and could summon the lust of men, he had seen her naked, and therefore, it was as if he felt nothing. Also, this girl made him exhaust himself completely.
In a few minutes, Morse took the drying rack outside the cave and placed it in the open air.
One of the benefits of Ni Ni Layan was that her mere aura and presence alone prevented predators from approaching.
Morse had already reached the second level of Qi Condensation. He had to collect only one point to be able to open the third level of Qi Condensation.
He had to close as the system described to get the points. Morse approached Ni Ni Layan, who was meditating alone inside the cave, and boldly stepped forward and sat near her while the energy was circulating in her body smoothly. He could feel from her both a high Yang energy and an extremely high Yin.
In Ni Ni Layan's mind, she had already decided that she would not engage in the path of lust since she now had a unique path. But when she sensed Morse's Yang, she felt she wanted more of it.
She thought to herself: An unscrupulous follower wants to make me attached to him. Ni Ni Layan already felt that this man had a strange obsession with preventing her from having sex as if he were a preacher.
He even refused sex with her on the grounds of nonsense like "rational lust." She wanted more of this Yang to feed her cultivation path, and she also needed Dual Cultivation points to rise to the second stage.
{Second Stage of True Qi Condensation: 500 points}
It was very expensive, so she needed this man. When she opened her eyes, she found Morse sitting near her, feeling nervous and looking at her with suspicion. When he found that she had opened her eyes, he tried to move away.
"Wait here... you haven't introduced yourself to me yet."
Oh right... she didn't know my name all this time, Morse thought.
"My name is Morse Xuan. You can call me... Mentor."
He had planted the first seeds of his plans, which was to make Ni Ni take him as her teacher. To be the master of a Phoenix—isn't that exciting? But on the other hand, Ni Ni Layan thought as she smiled: Are you saying this as an act? Little follower, I love these games.
"So, Mentor Xuan... what do you think about starting Dual Cultivation?"
Dual cultivation... has this girl not given up her old habits?
