“Hu!”
Sitting opposite to each other, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili exhaled deeply.
After two hours, they finally dissolved the essence-locking note in their bodies.
They had had a brief fight with Qingfeng Hermit, but their combined force was no match for the latter.
This time, Qingfeng Hermit locked more than dozens of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators’ strengths from two heavens away, which showed that her power was probably unrivaled.
The Lu sisters were now at the Core Formation Realm which was equivalent Zhen-level, but they would return to their peak after some cultivation.
“Hehe… Your skin is so smooth, Sister!”
“Your waist is getting slimmer each day!”
They smiled at each other cheerfully and stood up before flying out of the cave abode hand in hand. They went to the entrance of Hao Ren’s cave to check on him.
Hao Ren’s cave abode was quiet, and colorful lights would flash occasional, showing that Hao Ren was still cultivating.
Wondering about Hao Ren’s situation, they lingered at the entrance, looking into the cave with concern.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Three hundun sword energy flew out of the cave abode while Hao Ren came out stepping on two sword energies.
One must break before building!
After the exhaustion of his nature essence, Hao Ren had used the small cloud rain array in his cave abode for lightning cultivation, complete cleansing his meridians.
At some risks, he had unlocked another five openings and gained a slight improvement in his realm!
“Gongzi!” When Hao Ren came out, Lu sisters went up to him immediately.
Seeing that they had recovered their vibrant and pink complexions, Hao Ren smiled with relief, knowing they had dissolved the notes. “How are Yujia and others doing?”
“We haven’t checked on them yet!” Lu Linlin answered.
Hao Ren was their priority. Also, according to their observation, Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi had only suffered from physical injuries; there weren’t any several internal injuries.
“I’m afraid Gongzi must dissolve Sister Su’s note,” Lu Lili said.
“Oh?” Hao Ren looked at them in bafflement.
He thought that the note from Eighth Heaven had a time restriction just like Xie Yujia’s and would disappear after a while. However, Lu Lili seemed to mean that it needed a special way to dissolve it.
“Gongzi, you’ll know when you see it.” Lu Linlin went up and took up his arm.
With a smile, Lu Lili took up the other arm.
Hao Ren was dragged into Xie Yujia’s cave abode by them.
Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi had changed into clean clothes, and their wounds had all healed.
Sitting on the stone bed, Su Han was cultivating with all her force. Sweat dampened her silk white blouse, showing the shape of her undergarments beneath.
“Hao Ren…” Seeing Hao Ren, Xie Yujia called out in a low voice.
“How is it?” Hao Ren asked.
“Can’t dissolve it temporarily.” Xie Yujia shook her head and said.
Walking to Su Han’s side, Hao Ren saw that she was trying to fight the note in her body with tightly shut eyes.
Having spent four hours on it, Su Han still couldn’t dissolve the note.
With their injuries healed, Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi had stayed with Su Han in the cave abode while she cultivated with all her force.
“How to dissolve it?” Hao Ren turned to ask Lu sisters.
He knew Su Han’s personality and her passion for cultivation. If she couldn’t recover her previous realm, she would collapse.
If anyone could help her recover her realm, she would do anything for that person.
“It’s simple. Gongzi, you need to guide the five-elemental nature essence and merge with Sister Su’s mind. Then, the note will be dissolved. I did it with my sister,” Lu Linlin answered.
“Merge in mind… How can Su Han and I merge minds? Can you two do it?” Hao Ren asked them.
“Our cultivation method is different from the dragon cultivators’ and will probably achieve the opposite result if we force it, making the lock tighter than before,” Lu Lili answered cautiously.
“Don’t waste time! Do it!” Su Han yelled with her eyes closed.
“We’ll go out, so we won’t disturb your cultivation.” Xie Yujia pulled Zhao Yanzi with her, walking toward the entrance.
She felt weird to leave Hao Ren and Su Han alone in the cave. However, she felt guilty since Su Han was injured by Old Grandma when she tried to rescue them.
Zhao Yanzi looked back at Hao Ren and Su Han while she walked to the entrance, feeling heavy in heart.
“Place your palms and knees against hers. You need to push out the note from the Shenting Acupoint,” Lu Linlin reminded Hao Ren before pulling Lu Lili out and putting up any array formation at the entrance.
Seeing them going out and forming an array formation at the cave entrance, Hao Ren felt nervous.
“Excuse me.”
Hao Ren sat down cross-legged, facing Su Han.
“Ok…” Su Han answered in a low voice.
With his knees pressing against hers, Hao Ren shot out the sword energies using Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll from his knees.
After she dropped to the Core Formation Realm, Su Han’s realm was the same as Hao Ren’s. With her eyes closed, she sensed Hao Ren’s nature essence with her greatest efforts.
Watching Su Han at such close range, Hao Ren could clearly see the exquisite curves beneath her sweat-dampened silk blouse and her beautiful face.
Putting away his distracted thoughts, Hao Ren picked up Su Han’s soft hands and clasped her fingers with his.
Su Han’s teeth bit on her lips lightly before getting serious again.
Ten weak sword energies shot out from Hao Ren’s ten fingers into Su Han’s smooth wrists before her meridians accepted them.
Su Han’s meridians were slim and clean like transparent pipes, which was the result of her purifying process while she cultivated to Qian-level.
Hao Ren’s sword energies traveled through Su Han’s meridians which covered her body as if he was feeling each inch of her skin.
Sword energies contained Hao Ren’s spiritual senses which were like his eyes.
Su Han raised her shoulders slightly with some alert and discomfort, feeling as if she was going through a machine, and her body beneath her clothes was visible to the outside
“Don’t let your sword energies run around randomly,” Su Han reminded him.
Although cultivators were supposed not to mind these things, Hao Ren was after all a male.
Hao Ren didn’t want to explore Su Han’s curves on purpose, but Su Han’s cultivation technique was different from his own, and so were the routes of some fine meridians.
Like a small array formation, the essence-locking note entered the meridians and spread to all the corners, locking some meridians and blocking the movements of nature essence, and thus reducing her realm.
Sensing Hao Ren’s sword energies, Su Han felt her belly turn warm and her chest tingle.
Alarmed, she knocked away Hao Ren’s sword energies.
“If you dare to look again, I’ll kill you!” Su Han opened her beautiful eyes and stared at Hao Ren coldly.
Hao Ren felt wronged since he had not sneaked glances around. Instead, he had just swept through swiftly despite his occasional amazement at her beautiful curves.
He didn’t know that Su Han had an especially sensitive body, and Hao Ren’s sweepings were felt by her strongly.
“Again!” Knowing it was no use to explain, Hao Ren shot the sword energies into Su Han’s body through her knees and fingers again
Su Han’s heart suddenly raced, which was obvious to Hao Ren whose sword energies were traveling through her body.
“Merge your mind with mine…” Hao Ren told her.
“Who’s going to merge minds with you!” Su Han closed her eyes and curled her lips, but she finally entered the quiet cultivation state.
It was hard for cultivators to allow another’s spiritual senses to enter their bodies, especially for Su Han who liked to cultivate in solitude.
“There is a thread of metal elements.” Hao Ren found a point at Su Han’s right elbow.
“Got it.” Su Han marked it with her nature essence.
“Another a thread of wood elements.” Hao Ren found another lock at her neck.
“Ok.” Su Han marked it, and Hao Ren left a small sword energy at the place as well.
“Here… Another one,” Hao Ren said hesitantly.
This point was on the side of Su Han’s right chest. Too embarrassed to say the specific position, Hao Ren stopped the sword energy at the spot so that she could feel it.
“Ok,” Su Han answered coldly.
These points were pieces of the note that exploded in the body, and they interacted with each other, forming an array formation covering all the meridians.
Half an hour later, Hao Ren had checked Su Han’s entire body and found 36 note pieces made up of five different elements.
It was easy to shatter something, but it was challenging to fit these pieces back to its original form.
Hao Ren pinched lightly on Su Han’s slightly sweaty palms.
“Careful!”
The 36 sword energies of different elemental attributes shot into Su Han’s body at the same time.
Su Han’s metal-elemental and water-elemental nature essence in her meridians gave way at the same time.
Moving with the precision of a surgeon, Hao Ren shot 36 sword energies onto the 36 note pieces.
Hum!
A light rose from Su Han’s chest while the note that was reformed form the pieces was forced to her Shenting Acupoint by Hao Ren’s sword energies!
The Shenting Acupoint was the acupoint for releasing energy, and legendary people had a third eye in this spot. After forcing the note to this spot, Hao Ren’s sword energies didn’t have the extra strength to force it out.
Su Han didn’t dare to move since her metal elemental and water elemental nature essences were incompatible to the note, and it would explode again if she touched it.
Taking Su Han’s hands in his, Hao Ren forced the note to stay put. Without thinking, he lowered his head slightly and kissed Su Han’s forehead.
It was cold. Fine and soft hair fluttered slightly.
With 36 critical acupoints hit by Hao Ren’s sword energies, Su Han’s body turned to jelly and couldn’t summon a thread of nature essence, falling into Hao Ren arms softly.
Hao Ren immediately reached out and held her soft shoulders.
Su Han’s face leaned against his neck while fine hair covered her long eyelashes, looking like a little bird leaning on its master.
Su Han’s full chest pressed on Hao Ren’s chest; it was quite soft and bouncy.
Hao Ren pressed his lips onto her forehead and sucked out the essence-locking note!
Pu!
Hao Ren spat out the note which landed on the stone wall and dissolved instantly.
“Hu…” Hao Ren exhaled in relaxation.
He looked down on Su Han who had a red mark on her forehead. Hunching her shoulders slightly, she had her head buried in Hao Ren’s chest, and her back formed a beautiful curve.
Hao Ren pushed at her lightly, and she leaned against the stone wall.
She was damp all over, revealing her exquisite curves.
Hao Ren pulled her slim hands and put his arms around her slender waist.
While Hao Ren took the opportunity to devour her beautiful body with his eyes, thinking if she had lost consciousness, Su Han released her top-tier Qian-level strength all of a sudden!
Bang! Hao Ren was exploded out of the cave like a rock!
Guarding outside the cave abode, the Lu sisters reacted quickly. They flew up swiftly and pulled Hao Ren to the ground by holding his shoulders.
“How did it go?” Xie Yujia hurried over and asked him.
“I think… it went well,” Hao Ren answered as he touched his forehead
There was a red palm print on his forehead. Indeed, he had been tempted when he looked at Su Han who looked like a sleeping beauty since no man could keep calm in that situation.
With the White Jade Sword in her hand, Su Han appeared at the entrance of the cave abode, and her expression was the typical cold one. She snorted lightly, “I have things to do. I’m heading back!”
However, Hao Ren clearly remembered that Su Han had blushed with embarrassment when she knocked him away!
Swoosh! Su Han flew away stepping on the longsword.
Her magnificent presence showed that she had recovered her realm!
“Sister Su flies so fast. The new sword is of high quality…” Zhao Yanzi looked into the distance and said.
“Hehe, Gongzi…” Lu sisters held Hao Ren’s arms and teased, “We haven’t recovered our realms yet. You need to help us, too, Gongzi!”
Looking at them helplessly, Hao Ren flicked his fingers on their foreheads and thought back on that tempting scene, wondering if that was the legendary dual-cultivation.
“It seems that Sister Su Han’s note has been dissolved.” Watching Su Han disappear in the distance swiftly, Xie Yujia puffed her cheek and said, “It must be dissolved little by little. I made an essence-unlocking note, but it was useless.”
“Essence-unlocking note?!” The Lu sisters looked at Xie Yujia in surprise.
“Yeah.” Xie Yujia nodded. “I tried it on Sister Su Han.”
The Lu sisters rolled their eyes and called out in admiration, “Big Zhumu!”
“What?” Xie Yujia looked at them in surprise.
“It takes a Core Formation Realm cultivator to dissolve the note for a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. If Gongzi used the note, it would have been dissolved immediately!” Lu sisters looked at each other.
If they had known that Xie Yujia could make essence-unlocking notes, they wouldn’t have spent four hours dissolving the note. Instead, they would have dissolved it in one second!
“The Big Zhumu is silly in a cute way!” they thought.
