Chapter 75: The Heaven-Chosen Woman, Yushuzhen!
Chapter 75: The Heaven-Chosen Woman, Yushuzhen!
“Hiss!”
With a violent shudder, Yushuzhen exhaled sharply and stepped away from the youth lying motionless on the ground—his energy completely drained.
“Heh… finally did it!”
Feeling the flow of true qi surging through her body, Yushuzhen nearly burst into tears. After enduring endless trials at Happiunion Hall, she had finally broken through to the first stage of Refining Qi cultivation.
Once her momentary emotional turmoil passed, she smoothed her expression. Her previously sultry demeanor dissolved into icy composure, her beautiful eyes now burning with steely resolve. Youth fades easily, beauty fades easily—she refused to accept an aging reflection one day.
“I will cultivate immortality. I will defy death!”
In this moment, her determination to ascend burned brighter than ever. She would climb step by step, no matter what, until she stood at the pinnacle of the Primordial Sacred Sect.
Unbeknownst to her, someone else lingered in the cave.
Beside the drained youth, a faint, translucent figure stood with arms folded behind his back—visible only to those with supernatural sight. He watched her with quiet amusement.
“Heavenly Opportunity Theft—phase one complete.”
“Yu Shuzhen proved quite capable. Her thirst for cultivation was already ingrained; I didn’t even need to nudge her will. All her actions were born of her own heart.”
This was ideal.
Lv Yang had yet to reach Foundation Building cultivation, far from the effortless mastery of a Foundation Building expert. Influencing others too overtly risked exposing his hand.
His gaze shifted inward, studying his own state. His physical body lay dead, trapped in the “die to regenerate” phase of the Supreme Yin Shedding Corpse Liberation True Art. His soul, however, endured via the Yin Spirit Immortal Art he’d refined through past reincarnations—an immortal yin-spirit tethering his essence.
“So this is what ‘rebirth through death’ truly means…”
His corpse now functioned like a cauldron, his three Supreme Divine Abilities serving as ingredients. Flesh as the furnace, abilities as elixirs, and cosmic forces as the refining fire—this process would fuse his powers into the divine status of a [Corpse Liberation Immortal]. Only then would the Supreme Yin Shedding Corpse Liberation True Art be perfected.
“This will take time.”
And not just time—his Karmic Merit itself acted as the fuel for this transformation. By burning his destined fortune, he ignited the alchemical fire within his corpse. It was a gamble with life itself: if the process failed before his Karmic Merit exhausted, he would perish utterly, his soul barred even from human rebirth, doomed to the animal realm.
“No wonder even the Holy Sect abandoned this path.”
The cost eclipsed the reward. The cultivator who first devised this art must have possessed unyielding resolve—betting their entire existence on a single stroke of fate, leaving no room for retreat.
“This is cultivation.”
The great Dao walks alone—forward, never back. One bets everything for a sliver of hope. Succeed, and all is well. Fail… and despair consumes all.
At this thought, Lv Yang’s heart clenched so painfully that tears welled.
Only when he glimpsed the Ten Thousand Lives Scroll beside him did he snap back to reality. Slapping his forehead, he muttered, “Almost forgot—I can reincarnate. Never mind.”
“Losing my physical shell left my spirit vulnerable. My emotions got the better of me.”
Composing himself, he turned his gaze to Yushuzhen.
Though she appeared unchanged outwardly, her essence had already transformed. His Heavenly Opportunity Theft technique had rewritten her into a human-shaped furnace. From now on, no matter how high she ascended, a single thought from Lv Yang could drain her cultivated power, feeding it back to him.
“No rush,” he mused. “Time to pass the Heavenly Opportunity Theft techniques to her… Let her feast on others first. Fatten her up, then harvest.”
His eyes flickered toward the cave entrance, where Liu Xin waited.
At the Holy Sect’s Happiunion Hall, Yushuzhen followed Liu Xin’s footsteps. Her every step radiated seductive grace, yet her face remained coldly aloof—a hypnotic contradiction that drew glances from disciples nearby. Even Liu Xin stole a glance, his eyes darkening with lust before he stifled it.
“Focus on the task.”
“Junior sister Yu,” Liu Xin handed her a scroll, “this is the Primordial Dao Treatise, the formal cultivation technique for Holy Sect disciples. Study it diligently—do not slacken.”
“Thank you, senior brother.”
She bowed deeply, offering Liu Xin a tantalizing view of her cleavage. A faint floral fragrance teased his senses.
He swallowed hard, then suddenly swept her into his arms. Her icy facade cracked, revealing perfectly timed alarm as her soft cries echoed: “Ah! Senior brother, what are you doing? Let go—I’ve sworn off dual cultivation!”
She pushed at his chest—but her delicate hands only kneaded his torso like a massage.
Liu Xin’s lust flared, his laugh a low cackle.
“You misunderstand, junior sister. This isn’t dual cultivation… it’s Dao discussion.”
Ignoring her protests, he carried her into the cave—intent on pleasure before business.
The next day, Liu Xin lay catatonic, his mind numb from indulgence. His guard down, he didn’t notice Yushuzhen rising leisurely from the bed.
Only when his strength failed him entirely did he jolt upright—his body limp, his qi utterly drained.
His eyes locked onto his blackened, rotting member, the stench of decay filling the air.
“You poisoned me!?”
Yushuzhen’s face was stone. “Your plot against me—how could I not retaliate?”
“Fool!” Liu Xin snarled, teeth grinding as he failed to circulate his qi. “How did you see through me!?”
“Your gift of the Primordial Dao Treatise raised suspicion,” she replied coolly. “Disciples promoted from Happiunion Hall usually receive dual cultivation techniques. Why hand me this random treatise? Clearly, your intent was foul.”
“You’d kill me over doubts?”
“Why not?” Her smile sharpened. “A woman’s intuition is her greatest weapon. Even if I erred, what have I lost?”
“Die slowly,” she continued, “You’re a mid-Refining Qi cultivator—your knowledge of powerful techniques is valuable. I’ll study them first… then drain you dry. No sense wasting your life’s work.”
“.Hmph!”
Before her words finished, Liu Xin’s fury boiled over. A jet of blood erupted from his mouth as he collapsed unconscious.
