Chapter 375. Resurrection
It turns out Miss Mu’s perversion exceeded imagination.
She would do anything to humiliate him, creating all sorts of Spirit Robe Abilities.
And it’s a Locking Skill?!
This is the first time Xia Feng has encountered a Spirit Robe Ability specifically targeting a single person.
It’s truly outrageous.
Sure enough, after a while, Xia Feng was attracted by the scent of sweat stains on Miss Mu’s delicate collarbones and moved his Adam’s apple.
As he raised his eyes, he met her condescending, teasing golden eyes.
“Mr. Xia, does it smell good?” she asked softly.
“So-so.”
Xia Feng scoffed and patted her beautiful back. “Miss Mu, let’s get up first. Since we’ve both reached the peak of Fourth-stage, let’s promote to Fifth-stage first. Otherwise, we won’t be able to use the remaining two Tai Chi powers.”
“There’s no need.”
The silver-haired woman shook her head, her round thighs firmly planted, stopping him from getting up. “Mr. Xia, promoting to Fifth-stage is simple. We can promote together like this, no need to separate.”
With that, she casually waved her hand, and a large pile of Fifth-stage spirit materials appeared, and she began preparing the Fifth-stage promotion spirit liquid.
“…”
Xia Feng’s eyes twitched. He was completely defeated. It seemed this witch was determined to trap him, leaving him no chance to escape.
A day had already passed, and he was already somewhat fatigued. He didn’t know if he could last until the Eternal Day Divine Seal was constructed two days later.
Worried internally, Xia Feng had no choice but to take out a large pile of water-attribute Fifth-stage spirit materials from his Nascent Ten Space.
After killing Che Tai Xian and obtaining all his treasures, the spirit materials for promoting to Fifth-stage were completely ready.
Although he didn’t need these things to be promoted, in front of Miss Mu, he still meticulously prepared the spirit liquid.
The spirit liquid was quickly prepared, its color a golden hue in the test tube.
“Let’s begin, Mr. Xia.”
Their eyes met, and they both tilted their heads back and drank it down simultaneously.
Then, Mu Qingtong threw away the test tube and directly leaned down to block Mr. Xia’s lips, embracing his long hair.
Promoting to Fifth-stage wouldn’t take much of her focus, so there was no need to waste time. She could promote while continuing her Yin-Yang Mirror cultivation.
She believed Mr. Xia felt the same.
Although the regular cultivation of the Yin-Yang Mirror had low amplification, it was better than nothing.
Xia Feng was a bit stunned. He didn’t think this was very normal. Who promotes in such a chaotic manner?!
Couldn’t they just close their eyes and meditate to promote properly!
One should know that even promoting from First-stage to Second-stage had many people failing and suffering backlash.
For a super-stage domain like Fourth-stage, promoting to Fifth-stage would require at least four to five days of focused meditation, reconstructing the Spirit Particle Structure and sublimating the Spirit Base under the effect of the promotion liquid. Even then, there was still a 70% chance of failure.
Therefore, Mu Qingtong was being so reckless, and Xia Feng was somewhat worried. If she failed and it backlashed to her Spirit Base, it would be disastrous.
A person’s soul space, from outside to inside, is divided into [Spirit Particle, Spirit Base, Spirit Substance].
Spirit Particles are arranged in order to form the spirit pressure that fills the surface layer of the soul. The middle layer of the soul—the Spirit Base—is used to release and create Spirit Particles.
As for the innermost Spirit Substance, it is the core of the soul, involving the essence of life’s creation, and is the most mysterious.
When a Spirit Master advances in stage, the essence of it is to refine and sublimate the Spirit Base, allowing it to release Spirit Particles faster, possess stronger defensive capabilities to protect the Spirit Substance from harm, and at the same time, make the Spirit Base smaller and contract inwards.
Becoming smaller means that the soul space is limited. When the Spirit Base can be squeezed inwards without damaging the Spirit Substance, becoming smaller, the outer space left for Spirit Particles naturally increases. The Amount of Spirit Particles will thus greatly increase, and the spirit pressure strength will not decrease.
Once a Spirit Master loses their Spirit Base, it is equivalent to losing their cultivation foundation in the immortal cultivation world, with their dantian destroyed and meridians broken.
Countless Spirit Masters in this world have lost their Spirit Bases, mostly due to promotion failure. The higher the stage, the greater the risk of promotion failure causing backlash to the Spirit Base, leading to collapse. Because of this, Xia Feng was now trembling with fear.
He frowned, embracing Miss Mu’s slender, soft waist like a water snake. Feeling her deep kiss and rhythm, his heart beat faster and faster, his nerves twitching with tension.
Luckily, he was ultimately overthinking. Was Mu Shen someone who could be measured by common sense? Dual-tasking like this was not difficult for her.
Xia Feng placed his hand on the curve of her back, closed his eyes, and felt it. The synchronization ability had no delay at all. Her Spirit Base was like a pulsating heart, slowly shrinking under the effect of the promotion spirit liquid, while madly releasing Spirit Particles.
It was like the spray from a garden fountain, Spirit Particles splashing out in all directions, rapidly filling the remaining space in her soul space.
Not a single gap was left, fitting perfectly.
[Your Spirit Particles inside have been compressed to their limit, your Spirit Pressure state has been greatly amplified!]
[Mu Qingtong has completed her promotion, your Spirit Base has been sublimated—]
[Your Amount of Spirit Particles has received a massive increase—]
[Your Strength, Agility, and Spirit have received a large increase—]
Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong both froze, their breaths catching. They opened their eyes, their black pupils and golden eyes meeting.
!
[Your Spirit Pressure level has successfully advanced to ‘Fifth-stage’! Copy Slot +1]
[Current Copy Slots: 6 (5+1)]
Just as Xia Feng was immersing himself in the joy of the increased copy slot, a jade finger gracefully slid down from his Adam’s apple to his jaw, hooking it upwards.
Mu Qingtong smiled faintly and said softly, “Under the influence of pheromones, you could still promote so quickly. Mr. Xia is quite capable.”
“No, you’re the one who’s amazing,” Xia Feng glanced at her and said, clicking his tongue, speaking a great truth.
Mu Qingtong readily accepted Mr. Xia’s praise and looked back at the clock on the living room wall.
3 AM.
More than a day had passed, and under the blessing of the Fate Stone’s ‘infinite stamina,’ she showed no signs of fatigue.
However, Mr. Xia’s complexion seemed a bit unwell.
Even with the blessing of the Fate Stone’s rule power, it seemed to consume some kind of energy within Mr. Xia that could affect his life. According to the concepts in some ancient books, this energy should be ‘Yang energy.’
While contemplating, the silver-haired woman, with her serpentine waist, readjusted her sitting posture and suddenly asked Mr. Xia, “Mr. Xia, you still have your Vermilion Bird Demonic Armor, right?”
“…”
Xia Feng had also naturally noticed the problem with himself, which made him a little alarmed, his thoughts racing.
With a poker face, he shook his head helplessly. “No, it’s gone. There are only six Spirit Artifact slots in total. The Vermilion Bird Demonic Armor doesn’t increase much combat power, so I naturally replaced it.”
“A lie,” the scarlet-haired maid, sitting on a chair beside them, said emotionlessly, her back straight, her voice faint.
“…”
Mu Qingtong pondered, her cool and aloof beautiful eyes slowly curving, sly like crescent moons, and she said coldly, “It’s good that you still have it.”
Xia Feng: “!!!”
Mu Qingtong could see that Mr. Xia had previously resisted for fear of angering Gong Changyi, but now he was resisting this out of instinctive fear.
And the more Mr. Xia resisted something…
The more she liked it!
“Mr. Xia, I remember that after the Vermilion Bird Demonic Armor resurrects, it has a 30-minute period where its attributes are doubled, similar to advancing. After the doubling ends, it will enter a few seconds of paralysis, and there will be a 30-minute cooldown period.
So, you only need to wait 30 minutes to use this Resurrection ability again, right?”
“…”
