A month of unimpeded dual cultivation passed. Our cultivation progress increased by 7%. The huge cultivation boost provided by the essences inside my Chaos Furnace provided a lot of help.
The nature of ten elements yin-yang in this regard is unparalleled.
Hum-!
Crackle-!
The fmes inside the cubic furnace calmed down. Once the pill chambers were opened, twelve bright green pills presented themselves in my eyes.
I immediately looked at its degree of completeness.
{Completion: 96%}
90% and above ensures there are zero "erysipes" (i.e., pill poison). These are the ‘useless’ part of medicinal pills and have to be discharged regurly. High grade spirit roots reject them from the get-go.
Kiana appeared beside me.
“It’s done.”
She nodded before taking out the soul tablet. It is kept in the sole pace room that we did not “use”. Being a pervert has its own time and pce.
Sou-!
The tablet reached my hand. The moment I touched it, I felt the presence of three dormant souls.
Seeing the two Xuanyuans’ injuries on the verge of being healed, I chose to let them out first.
A pair of green and red pills floated out of my palm. Their souls flew out of the tablet according to my control. Using the supernatural power, the Dao of Yin-Yang, my hands managed to touch their ‘souls’. It is the same power I used to interact with Veliona’s soul during her body reconstruction.
On one end, I dissolved the power of the spiritual pills. On the other, I transmitted them towards the two sleeping souls.
Hum-!
A burst of white light swept through the surroundings. Moments ter, two naked physical bodies, made with flesh and blood, floated mid-air.
“No peeking!”
“Yeah…”
I left the two Xuanyuans to be clothed by Kiana. When I looked at them again, they were clothed in an oversized bck and white shirt. Their ft figures did not require the necessary underwear.
“I figured you won’t peek anyways. The girls from Shenzhou are all like that.” Kiana said proudly.
I don’t know whether to ugh or feel sad about the Shenzhou trio. They became the object of Kiana's stray bullets.
“That’s sexual harassment, you know? The w does not discriminate between sexes.”
“What w?” She asked teasingly.
“My w.”
“...”
Kiana will be punished tonight.
As if sensing my thoughts, her teasing look faltered. She tilted her head away from my sight.
“Sirin’s situation is more serious than these two. I froze her with my Herrscher Authority back then... just like your dragon.”
Back then, Kiana brought me to check on Bel's condition. I had no other options than to freeze her too. Dealing with her injuries will have to wait until we return.
“I will take care of the formation then pass it to you. Make sure to act when something bad happens.”
“Got it.”
Kiana is familiar with this operation. This was her role during the essence conversion eight months ago. I have a lot of fourth grade job specializations which include formations. But, my spiritual qi is in limited supply.
Using [Bde Mantra], [Daluo Sword Art]’s Dao of Sword, and [Sword Light Refraction] is a huge consumption.
Fortunately, I did not have to do these steps now.
Thirty-six blue dots emerged out of my palm. It formed the shape of a consteltion before emerging as thirty-six small fgs.
Simir to the Innate Talisman, these Thirty-six Heavenly Phase Fgs are the special weapon of formation masters. They carry on this special formation, enabling them to set up formations in an instant. It can be done so with or without resources, though their strengths vary. It can also be superimposed on existing formations, allowing them to be exerted far beyond their limits.
Thirty-six fgs shot up in the sky before they took on the nodes of the entire mountain formation. The combination of one low fifth grade and a dozen fourth grade formations raised its upper limits to middle fifth grade.
With the Thirty-Six Heavenly Phase Fgs, it can be temporarily raised to the te fifth grade.
Buzz-!
Click-!
The phenomena within the formation began to be distorted according to my will. The entire formation’s power served to raise one of my supernatural powers, the Dao of Yin-Yang, to the level of [Dharma Laws].
Endless power surged upon my body, only to be stripped away the next second. The ice [Dharma Laws] preserving Sirin’s soul broke down. Instantly, the pair of spiritual pills had their medicinal power dissolved by the Dao of Yin-Yang. Then, it is passed onto Sirin’s colpsing soul.
Seeing the soul repairing the pill's insufficient output, I poured out two more. It worked this time.
The [Dharma Laws] belonging to my Dao of Yin-Yang guaranteed her soul’s complete recovery.
Three seconds ter, the surge of power ended. My entire body felt hollowed out.
“Ugh…”
I gnced at the golden blood spilled out of my mouth and disregarded it.
Kiana acted faster than I thought. Her spiritual consciousness is already connected to the mountain formation.
The two of us watched until Sirin’s physical body reconstruction was complete. It is as if she never got her body destroyed in the first pce.
That is the issue we got from testing out Veliona’s body reconstruction ability. It would be fine for normal humans, but for those aspiring to become cultivators, there are “fws” within the body reconstructed through quantum entanglement and Natural Stigma ability. Their ability to cultivate will be greatly hindered.
These fws are not present with the fourth grade body reconstruction pills. After all, the pills induce the soul to recreate its most perfect physical body match. Quantum entanglement, on the other hand, forms a body without the soul’s involvement, resulting in those fws from appearing.
Just then, a sudden urge appeared in my mind.
I want to divine Sirin’s future.
While Kiana was busy dressing Sirin up, three ancient coins with a square-shaped hole in the middle appeared in my palm.
My Hexagram Spirit became active, and so did my supernatural power on the Dao of Causality.
The world turned into nothing but pure darkness. Stars dotted up the sky, revealing a faint hint of mysticism from within.
I threw the three ching coins into the air. As I caught them, my surroundings rippled. The stars above intensified their glows.
The moment I saw the three coins, their appearance shifted continuously. It was two heads and a tail, then two tails and a head. These changes continued until a complete hexagram was made, a full six sets of coins. Their sum total ended up as thirty-seven.
Its reading showed that one should be prudent in their actions, for it could push the recipient towards the good or bad path.
A corresponding image appeared in my sight.
Sirin is wearing her magical girl battlesuit as she sits on top of a familiar bed. Our distance is too close to each other.
I stared bnkly as she initiated a deep kiss.
I…
This is our future?
