Chapter 197: Damn, I Must Have Missed Something
With Shangguan Qiong’s help, Lin Fengmian’s acupoints were quickly broken open, and he steadily progressed to the next level.
Although the pain was no less intense, he knew that as long as he endured it, he would achieve a perfect Foundation Establishment Realm.
This made him realize the advantages of having a background and a master.
He endured the pain and used the Demon Emperor Technique to guide Shangguan Qiong to help him break through the relevant acupoints and meridians.
Seeing him endure the pain and systematically break through the acupoints, Shangguan Qiong couldn’t help but feel quite satisfied.
Regardless of his innate talent, his control and persistence were commendable. This kid could really make a name for himself.
Soon, Lin Fengmian reached the four meridians and sixty acupoints required for the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment Realm, but he didn’t stop there.
He quickly broke through a fifth meridian, and the number of acupoints reached sixty-nine, yet he still didn’t stop.
Shangguan Qiong was surprised. This kid’s cultivation technique was no ordinary one.
However, as they progressed, she began to admire Lin Fengmian’s endurance. Even with her help, the pain was real.
The further they went, the more it became a test of willpower. Even she had only managed to open seventy-one acupuncture points.
At this point, Lin Fengmian was drenched in sweat and his body was trembling, but he gritted his teeth and continued to break through.
Eventually, Shangguan Qiong became numb, and even she began to sweat profusely.
Lin Fengmian ultimately opened six meridians and seventy-two acupoints, reaching the limit of what he could open before he began compressing the spiritual energy within his body.
Shangguan Qiong looked at the lecherous child in front of her, who was full of bad ideas, in disbelief. She couldn’t believe that he had managed to reach the limit of opening acupoints and meridians.
The cultivation technique was one thing, but this terrifying persistence was another.
Now, she was beginning to worry that this child’s excessively high quality in the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment Realm might affect her plans.
Fortunately, the difference between innate and acquired qualities was indistinguishable to outsiders, otherwise she might have considered eliminating him.
Lin Fengmian quickly gathered his qi into a liquid, a golden light radiating from him as he absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy.
Shangguan Qiong released her hand, her body drenched in sweat, her dress clinging to her.
If Lin Fengmian had opened his eyes, he would have noticed the issue of whether she was wearing anything underneath, given how the dress was clinging to her body.
Shangguan Qiong looked at Lin Fengmian, inhaled the scent of sweat in the air, and felt a strange attraction to him.
Almost involuntarily, she reached out and touched his chest, slowly moving her hand downward.
However, she quickly regained her senses and pulled back her hand as if she had been electrocuted, breathing heavily and looking completely helpless.
Suddenly, she undressed in front of Lin Fengmian, stood naked in front of him, and then jumped into the spirit pool.
Shangguan Qiong continued to wash her body with the spirit spring to calm herself down, feeling deeply frightened.
“Damn it! The lust poison of the Entwined Technique is getting more and more out of control! I’m going to go insane one day!”
Shangguan Yu had transferred all the lust poison to Shangguan Qiong, assuming that she could cleanse it completely, but she never realized that it was already beyond her capability to do so.
At first, with the amount of lust poison being relatively small, Shangguan Qiong could indeed expel it all through special means with Shangguan Yu.
However, as their cultivation realms deepened and time passed, Shangguan Yu’s actions became like scratching through a boot, providing only slight relief, and the more she scratched, the more it itched.
Due to her sister’s infatuation and her own reluctance, she could only endure the pain.
The prolonged repression eventually caused a terrifying amount of lust poison to accumulate in Shangguan Qiong’s body, which she could no longer expel.
She felt like she was going crazy, she wanted to find any man to vent her frustration, even Jun Wuxie wouldn’t bother her.
Shangguan Qiong was shocked by her own thoughts and stopped going out, leaving Shangguan Yu to handle the outside affairs.
Cultivating in seclusion within the Joyful Union Sect and avoiding men was indeed a relief.
But when Lin Fengmian appeared, she was almost unable to control herself. Even his gaze could make her feel an immense sense of pleasure.
Worried about her own impulsiveness, Shangguan Qiong decided to disfigure Lin Fengmian’s face, but it seemed to have little effect.
She still found herself unconsciously flirting in front of him to relieve her inner turmoil.
She felt like she was becoming a pervert who exposed herself, but this was the only way she could find release.
Shangguan Qiong cupped water in her hands to wash her face, the water streamed down and she couldn’t tell if it was water or tears.
This life was truly exhausting both mentally and physically!
Sensing that Lin Fengmian was about to wake up, she sighed, flew out of the water, and put on a new dress.
When Lin Fengmian opened his eyes, the Shangguan Qiong before him had once again become the high and mighty sect master of the Joyful Union Sect.
Lin Fengmian exclaimed happily, “I have reached the Foundation Establishment Realm!”
Although he had experienced the Core Formation Realm with Luo Xue, that was just a trial experience.
The world of a thousand years ago felt like a flower in a mirror or a moon in water to him, and it always exuded an aura of unreality.
Now that his main body had finally reached the realm of Foundation Establishment, taking the second step on the path of cultivation, it held significant meaning for him.
The nine great realms of cultivation: Qi Refining Realm, Foundation Establishing Realm, Core Formation Realm, Nascent Soul Realm, Soul Severing Realm, Unity Realm, Void Realm, Great Ascension Realm, and Tribulation Crossing Realm.
He was no longer at the very bottom, although he wasn’t much better off either.
“Hmm, not bad!” Shangguan Qiong nodded with satisfaction.
“Hey, sect leader, have you changed your clothes?” Lin Fengmian asked in surprise.
“Yes, I just broke out in a sweat and took a bath here.”
Shangguan Qiong smiled and tossed her wet long hair, exuding a womanly charm that made Lin Fengmian swallow hard.
Damn it, it seems like I missed something.
Lin Fengmian shook off his various thoughts, stood up, and said, “Thank you, sect leader, for protecting me during my cultivation. I just broke through and plan to return to my room to consolidate my cultivation for a while.”
Shangguan Qiong frowned and said, “Shouldn’t you actively engage in dual cultivation with the women of Crimson Phoenix Peak to improve your strength?
Lin Fengmian had to find an excuse and said, “Those are just extra benefits. It’s better to cultivate on my own for a solid foundation.”
Shangguan Qiong coldly replied, “Do what you want. As long as you reach the third layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm by the end of the year, I don’t care how you do it.”
“Besides, the person who will teach you will return in half a month. Remember to come out of your seclusion to learn from her. We will also take the opportunity to modify you.”
Lin Fengmian replied with an “Oh”, knowing that their so-called modification meant that they would replicate Jun Wuxie’s wounds one-to-one.
But if the sizes don’t match, would this crazy woman actually cut me shorter?
At this thought, Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but feel a chill in his lower body, a mixture of fear and dread.
Lin Fengmian didn’t dwell on it for long before the irritable Shangguan Qiong dismissed him.
She was afraid that if she stayed with him any longer, she would lose control.
Back at Crimson Phoenix Peak, Xia Yunxi saw that Lin Fengmian had successfully reached the realm of Foundation Establishment and was genuinely happy for him.
Lin Fengmian, who was still burning with desire from their earlier encounter, couldn’t help but feel a surge of passion when he saw Xia Yunxi’s unintentional allure.
He claimed that he needed to consolidate his realm and spent the day in an intimate embrace with Xia Yunxi, achieving his goal of indulging in pleasure during the daytime.
