Chapter 435: The Taiyin Divine Body's Explosive Power Surge! (Part 1)
2024-10-01
"Ah?!"
Xu Wei Yi was stunned.
"Super... Super-strength aphrodisiac?"
"Yes," A Wu Jie communicated through divine sense, "According to my analysis, that person has some demonic tendencies. He suppressed his 'Evil Flame' as he progressed, eventually becoming an Eleventh Tribulation Scatter Immortal."
"This Evil Flame is his ultimate counterattack before death, using all his understanding of the Evil Flame throughout his life."
"And its power..."
"To be honest."
"I doubt anyone can cure it."
"Even if she doesn't care and is willing to let a man help, this Evil Flame burns too intensely. It affects not only the physical body but also the divine soul."
"Even if countless men could extinguish the fire in her body..."
"But the fire of her divine soul would still consume her soul, leaving nothing behind, and in the end, only an empty shell without a divine soul would remain."
"Moreover..."
"It's just a withered and broken shell in the eyes of ordinary people."
"In other words, it's almost hopeless."
"Unless someone can simultaneously remove the poison from her divine soul."
"But that's nearly impossible."
Xu Wei Yi was left speechless by these words.
She had considered many possibilities.
But she never imagined that the Evil Flame would be something like this.
And it was so vicious!
What should she do? She couldn't just ignore it, could she?
But when it came to saving someone, she had no idea how to proceed. She was well aware that Star Mother Gu always kept her distance from such matters. Asking her to get involved with so many people would be worse than death! Moreover, even if the physical poison was solved...
She would still die.
"Is there really no solution?"
"Is there a glimmer of hope in soul transference?"
She couldn't accept it.
"Soul transference is useless," Lin Zi Xiao said with a bitter smile, "The divine soul is also invaded by the Evil Flame... Soul transference, I can't just abandon the divine soul, can I?"
"So..."
"!"
At that moment, the still-unconscious Star Mother Gu began to tremble and convulse.
Her condition worsened by the moment.
"Oh no, this is bad!"
Xu Wei Yi's expression turned grim.
If she could, she would rather die in Star Mother Gu's place.
She had lived until now and bore that name for this very moment.
But...
She couldn't take her place now! She could only anxiously search for a solution, but nothing seemed to work.
In desperation, she tried everything, frantically forcing various antidotes, meditation techniques, and healing elixirs into Star Mother Gu's mouth.
Unfortunately, nothing seemed to work.
This left her mind in disarray.
Lin Zi Xiao and Ji Chu Tong were at a loss, feeling helpless.
Inside the Flame Mountain, at the edge of the Inner World, Lin Fan watched this scene through the Sky Gazing Mirror, his mouth twitching uncontrollably.
"I..."
"Unbelievable!"
"I never thought it would be this thing!"
"But that's not right!"
"Is this really pushing me towards the path of a Dragon King?"
"No way?!"
"This is ridiculous?!"
He was speechless.
This 'plot' was too damn dramatic! Only those 'Dragon Kings' in female-oriented novels would encounter such situations, collecting women wherever they went, all of them being the cherished daughters of great families or princesses of nations.
Typically, the Dragon King, in his arrogance, would solve a calamity threatening their loved ones or their entire faction, all while they cried and begged for his help.
Then, the beauty would wholeheartedly devote herself to him.
Moreover, in almost every Dragon King novel, there would be at least one beauty affected by an aphrodisiac, conveniently appearing by the Dragon King's side, and then...
You can imagine what happens next.
Aside from this, there was another common plot where the female lead would be affected by an aphrodisiac.
But it wasn't the return of the Dragon King.
Instead, it was usually a 'rich and powerful male lead' showing off.
Perhaps the male lead, or both the male and female leads, would be affected by the aphrodisiac, leading to a separation. The female lead would run away with child, and they would part ways for several years. Then, with the child's assistance, the rich male lead would chase after the female lead, enduring humiliation and becoming a love-struck fool...
Or, the female lead would run away with the child, but the male lead, under the influence of the aphrodisiac, wouldn't know what she looked like. A scheming woman would impersonate her, leading to a love-hate relationship with the real female lead. Eventually, when the male lead discovered the truth, tears would fall from his eyes. This would be followed by a female-oriented plot where the wife is temporarily humiliated, and the male lead chases her to the funeral pyre.
But there was a problem.
This was a typical female-oriented novel plot! His was a male-oriented novel...
"Damn it!" Lin Fan suddenly widened his eyes, realizing something.
While he was indeed in a male-oriented novel, Star Mother Gu didn't necessarily have to follow the same path.
If she were to follow a female-oriented novel's path, and she needed a 'male lead' to cure her...
Could that male lead be him?
"That's still not right."
"How can I be the male lead in a female-oriented novel?"
"It can't be that my appearance changes the course of events and future developments, making me the replacement male lead in this female-oriented novel, right?"
"This is crazy!"
"This kind of situation..."
"Is very troublesome."
Save her?
He naturally wanted to save her.
But if it were indeed the plot he was thinking of, there was a high probability of a child! And she would run away with the child!
This would be a real mess.
But not saving her didn't feel right either.
After all, she had helped him, and she had assisted the Moon Embracing Sect numerous times.
He couldn't just let her die.
"Damn it."
"I'll take the risk; I can't let her die now. Besides, I might be able to remove the poison without entering her body."
He thought of Love's Horse Chicken.
It could make someone die of pleasure, and it should still be effective in eliminating the Evil Flame, right?
Without further ado!
Within the Sky Gazing Mirror's field of view, people had already arrived due to the previous battle's disturbance and entered within a million li range.
Lin Fan clenched his teeth, "Wu Jie Jie, send a message to Xu Wei Yi, saying I have a way."
"..."
"Okay."
Wu Jie Jie smiled, "Actually, you two make a good match."
Lin Fan: "???"
...
Wu Jie Jie was very 'efficient'.
Xu Wei Yi soon received the message, but for a moment, he was caught in a dilemma.
After much consideration, he sighed, "Perhaps Lin Fan has a way, I'll be back soon."
Holding Gu Xinglian, she re-entered Flame Mountain, and with the guidance of the Sky Gazing Mirror, she quickly found Lin Fan and handed Gu Xinglian over to him, then said, "I don't know if what I'm doing is right or wrong."
"She's always been indifferent to men, avoiding them like snakes and scorpions."
"If you truly save her, perhaps after she recovers, not only will she not thank us, but she might even come to hate us."
"But..."
"I can't just turn a blind eye and do nothing."
"So..."
"I'm leaving it to you, whether to save her or not, it's up to you."
"I'll go out first and deal with the others."
Xu Wei Yi sighed helplessly and turned to leave.
Only Lin Fan was left, staring at Gu Xinglian in his arms, silently sighing.
He knew this situation all too well. Isn't this how the plot goes when the Empress consumes an aphrodisiac? After the deed, it's always the woman who takes the initiative, only to later kill the man, followed by a series of love-hate struggles, gradually changing her mind, softening her heart, and eventually...
Gu Xinglian wasn't the Empress, but as the master of the Ten Thousand Flowers Holy Land, her status was countless times higher than that of a mortal Empress.
In other words...
Hey!
It's just like that.
"Fortunately, I have Love's Horse Chicken."
"Perhaps, I can find another way, without all this trouble."
Lin Fan held her and began to retreat.
He had originally planned to create a diversion, making noise in one place while quietly slipping away, creating a time difference.
Unfortunately, plans often fall short.
Now, the time difference couldn't be created.
Being able to avoid a blockade was already a great joy.
And now...
Let's save the person first.
He walked back the way he came, heading towards the direction of the demon, and at the same time, seeing Gu Xinglian's condition deteriorating, he immediately began preparations.
Using his Immortal power, he lifted Gu Xinglian, and at the same time, he raised both hands, concentrating on gathering Love's Horse Chicken.
Soon, a colorful light ball, almost as large as Gu Xinglian herself, was lifted by Lin Fan and slowly descended under his control, eventually enveloping Gu Xinglian.
"!!!"
Even in her unconscious state, Gu Xinglian's reaction was intense.
She shivered uncontrollably.
Her expression became indescribable.
If not for Lin Fan's strong willpower, he would have given in to his urges much earlier.
But even so, he carefully controlled himself, averting his gaze and not looking too much.
A moment later.
"Ah?!"
Accompanied by a cry, Gu Xinglian woke up.
The first thing she did was curl up, tightly hugging her chest.
"You?"
"Me?"
"..."
Lin Fan turned around, and at a glance, he couldn't help but shiver.
This...
It was quite stimulating.
Gu Xinglian, drenched in sweat, was indeed quite stimulating.
"You???"
Gu Xinglian's voice was weak, and her face was still frighteningly red, "You... shivered on my body?"
"?"
"No."
Lin Fan quickly clarified, "Just now, a sudden gust of wind blew, and I shivered, that's all."
"I..."
"I don't believe you."
She struggled to speak, and just as she had barely managed to regain her senses, her intense dizziness and the uncontrollable fire within her.
Normally, she would have scoffed at such feelings.
But at this moment, looking at Lin Fan so close by, she suddenly wanted to try.
And this desire was especially strong.
In the end, her body seemed to act on its own, and she suddenly reached out and hugged Lin Fan's neck, their eyes met, and she murmured, "Help me..."
Lin Fan: "!!!"
Damn!
So, even my all-out Love's Horse Chicken can't handle this 'evil flame'?
He frowned.
If even Love's Horse Chicken can't handle it, then even if I'm willing to sacrifice, it's still impossible!
"She's almost recovered."
Suddenly, Wu Jie Jie's voice echoed in Lin Fan's mind, "The evil flame within her soul has been completely removed, but the fire in her body is hard to extinguish."
"Your Love's Horse Chicken is indeed impressive, but it can't fill the emptiness she has already been cleansed of the evil flame within her soul, but the fire in her body is hard to extinguish."
"So..."
"You still need to save her."
Lin Fan: "Ah, this? (o.o) ..."
Let's be reasonable.
He really didn't have that intention now.
Taking advantage of someone's vulnerability is something he wouldn't do.
If it were the normal Gu Xinglian, hugging him and inviting him, he wouldn't hesitate for a moment, and he would immediately take action, as he had said before, he wasn't the type to sit idly by.
But in this state...
"I can't take it anymore."
"Help me!"
Before Lin Fan could make a decision, Gu Xinglian took the initiative, turning the tables.
Lin Fan: "..."
He remained silent.
In the end, he sighed softly.
He passively endured.
...
Several days later.
Gu Xinglian was neatly dressed, her face cold.
"You're still not wearing clothes?"
Lin Fan: "..."
"Oh."
He sighed again and quickly got dressed, saying softly, "This matter..."
Before he could finish, Gu Xinglian interrupted him, "This has nothing to do with you!"
"You're just the antidote to my poison!"
"I owe you a favor, and I'll repay it when the opportunity arises."
"But between you and me, that's all there is to it. Don't overthink it, and don't even think that I, the Holy Mother, have any feelings for you!"
Lin Fan nodded. "That's good too."
"After all, many things, once mixed with too much complexity, become extraordinarily complex."
He heaved a sigh of relief.
There was also a hint of relief.
But Gu Xinglian, with her back to Lin Fan, was somewhat displeased.
She had said that as a girl's modesty and as a Holy Mother's face.
Moreover, how many more cycles had she lived than him? She was only one generation younger than the founding ancestor of the Embracing Moon Sect!
She couldn't say that after that, she had feelings for him, and that she had to insist on being with him, right?
So...
What's the point of making a statement? And what's with his relieved and happy attitude?
Why are you so happy as if it has nothing to do with you?
"I'm leaving!"
Gu Xinglian took a step forward. "Take care of yourself."
"I'll find Master Uncle and the others, and according to the original plan, I'll try to distract the others for you to leave."
"But..."
"Whether it succeeds or not, I can't be sure."
After saying this, she was about to leave.
But she hadn't gone far before she stopped in her tracks and said softly, "Regardless, life is the most important."
"Remember to stay alive."
"..."
...
Gu Xinglian left.
Lin Fan sighed.
To be fair, these past few days, he had been passive the whole time.
But his hands still retained the unique body scent of Gu Xinglian, and he even felt a hint of warmth lingering on his fingertips.
But...
This wasn't what he had expected.
"It's also quite absurd."
"Fucking crooked dragon king plot."
"This Gu Xinglian... she was probably supposed to be one of the crooked dragon king's harem, but why did it come true for me? Where do I look like a crooked dragon king?"
"And that old guy, no wonder his hair is all red, and all his skill effects are red. So he's 'refined from evil flame'."
"So many 'coincidences', it's really stretching it."
He vented his frustration.
After that, Wu Jie went back online and prepared to leave.
But suddenly, she paused.
"Your cultivation...?"
"I didn't notice it before."
"Although my realm hasn't changed, my immortal energy has been purified to such an extent."
"The quantity hasn't changed, but the quality... has increased by at least more than one-fold, right?"
"And it's still slowly increasing?"
"This..."
He wasn't a novice.
With all the novels he had read, he had some guesses.
"Could it be yin-yang harmony?"
"But even though I've had so many sessions with Ji Chu Tong, and I can feel the boost from twin cultivation, it shouldn't be such a huge boost, right?"
"Even if Gu Xinglian is stronger, and is truly an apex, it shouldn't provide such a big help."
"Otherwise, wouldn't those who twin cultivate be invincible?"
Lin Fan was still puzzled when Wu Jie spoke up, "Are you confused?"
"Yes."
He honestly expressed his confusion, but Wu Jie just laughed. "You, the younger generation, got a bargain and still want to play coy."
"Do you know that Gu Xinglian has a Yin Essence Body?"
"Yin Essence Body?"
"That's right. It's the Yin Essence Body, which is above the Pure Yin Holy Body."
"But this physique is extraordinary, and using it as a crucible will bring unimaginable benefits. To avoid trouble, Gu Xinglian's master sealed her physique from a young age, preventing others from sensing it."
"But it's only that others can't sense it. She's still a Yin Essence Body."
"When you combined with her, you received the first boost from the Yin Essence Body. How could you not gain a significant boost?"
"But I'm quite curious."
Wu Jie spoke with a hint of surprise, "Your cultivation is already at the apex, and with such a boost, you should be uncontrollable, and you should immediately attract heavenly tribulation to ascend."
"Even if you can't ascend in the Multiverse Abyss, your cultivation should directly advance to the next level, becoming a True Immortal. Then, when you return to the Immortal Martial Continent, you should immediately face tribulation. Depending on the outcome, you might die, your magical treasures might disperse, or you might ascend..."
"But your immortal energy has only increased by more than one-fold?"
Lin Fan estimated, "It should be more than one-fold, and this change is still ongoing. I estimate that by the end, it should be more than two-fold."
"..."
Wu Jie said, "Then there's only one possibility."
"What possibility?"
"Your strength surpasses our imagination!"
"..."
This sudden 'harvest' left him a bit dazed.
Upon further thought, perhaps the biggest gain from entering the Multiverse Abyss until now, apart from the World Heart, was Gu Xinglian's Yin Essence Body.
Although the immortal energy purification wasn't a one-to-one conversion to combat power, Lin Fan estimated that once he fully absorbed this yin essence, his combat power would increase by at least one or two-fold.
Compared to other rare treasures, this 'harvest' was very direct and extraordinary.
But at the same time, it was also the most unexpected.
"But fortunately, she didn't act like the female lead in those melodramatic dramas who, after being saved by others, would cling to life and even kill the savior.
