158: Section 158

When facing the Corpse Qi in the corpse cave, you actively absorbed it, causing Nangong Liuli to develop a subtle emotion towards you.

Since her father's death, she had never felt such meticulous care from anyone.

During the process of snatching the Binding Immortal Rope from Dream Hongshang, you were afflicted by Dream Hongshang's Peach Blossom Colored Cloud Miasma.

Nangong Liuli's fractured state of mind began to breed a Heart Demon.

You did not take advantage of the situation to possess Nangong Liuli, which caused her to develop a hint of goodwill towards you.

However, due to her pursuit of a perfect Dao Heart, this hint of goodwill was quickly extinguished and transformed into annoyance towards you.

She believed that if it weren't for you, she would never have experienced such an emotion.

After resolving her own needs, Nangong Liuli eagerly departed, wishing never to see you again in this lifetime.

You felt a sense of loss at Nangong Liuli's departure, not understanding why she treated you this way, not even wanting to say another word to you.

Dream Hongshang, who was secretly observing from the side, saw your deep affection and felt both admiration and anger.

Because she had never encountered a man like you, she envied and was jealous of Nangong Liuli; she hated that heartless man.

For some reason, she developed the idea of taking you as her servant.

Thus, Dream Hongshang, who had originally intended to leave directly, revealed herself and abducted you back to Peach Mountain.

You were angry at Dream Hongshang's actions, yet helpless.

When she was afflicted by Dan fire attacking her heart, and you rescued her, Dream Hongshang developed an inexplicable affection for you.

But at this moment, she believed she still liked her Senior Brother, so she suppressed this inexplicable emotion.

She thought this feeling was merely gratitude for you saving her.

In order to escape as soon as possible, you began to pursue Dream Hongshang.

Your actions and demeanor caused that hint of affection Dream Hongshang had for you to grow day by day, until your image even appeared in her dreams.

Just as she was having dreams related to you, you broke into Dream Hongshang's boudoir and attacked her.

Your crude words completely shattered her mental defenses.

Her heart was utterly broken by your confrontation.

In the following time, you began to care for Dream Hongshang.

It was this care of yours that slowly but surely filled Dream Hongshang's heart with your image.

A month later, you completely occupied Dream Hongshang's heart, leaving no room for anyone else.

But because of the failure of her previous relationship, Dream Hongshang made you swear a solemn oath. The moment you made the vow, the Thunder God and Mother of Lightning indicated they received it and struck you with lightning.

You and Dream Hongshang spent an incredibly happy time together, and your importance in Dream Hongshang's heart continued to grow.

In order to find a Magical Artifact for the 500-year tribulation in the future, you and Dream Hongshang left for Cuiyun Mountain.

At Cuiyun Mountain, you met Nangong Liuli again.

Upon seeing you, Nangong Liuli's Heart Demon grew stronger again, and she inwardly cried out, 'Fated enemy!'

She didn't understand why her Destiny with you was so profound.

Facing your approach, her only thought was to avoid you.

To avoid you, she immediately fled Cuiyun Mountain.

Although you felt a sense of loss, due to Dream Hongshang's presence, you did not experience the same sadness as before.

To secure a more important place in your heart, Dream Hongshang actively went out to find her Senior Brother, attempting to reclaim the Sect Head's seal from him.

You rushed to rescue Dream Hongshang, and you obtained Dream Hongshang's Senior Brother's Treasure Trove.

To restore Dream Hongshang's Origin Qi, you went to Danxia Mountain and caught a Ginseng Baby.

Nangong Liuli appeared again at this moment, and the instant she saw you, her Heart Demon almost became uncontrollable.

She didn't understand why, despite having the Seven Yin Absolute Body, her reaction to you, a male, was so strong.

During the struggle for control of the Ginseng Baby, your cold attitude towards her caused her Heart Demon to almost spiral out of control.

She didn't know why you were like a completely different person compared to when you first met.

While feeling wronged, Nangong Liuli also developed a hint of hatred and love for you.

The Ginseng Baby, while you were arguing with the Mount Emei disciples, secretly cut off its topknot and escaped the moment its guardian beast appeared.

What you didn't know was that the crane was later killed by Nangong Liuli's Master, and the Ginseng Baby was also taken back to Mount Emei.

From then on, the Ginseng Baby would forever provide Alchemy blood for Mount Emei.

After returning, Dream Hongshang used the Ginseng Treasure Whiskers you obtained to refine a Ginseng Nine-Aperture Pill, successfully restoring her own Origin Qi.

While you were traveling in Tianzhu Mountain, you unexpectedly encountered the emergence of Nangong Liuli's father's Immortal Cave, and Nangong Liuli was also drawn there by the Qi mechanism.

Upon seeing you, Nangong Liuli's Heart Demon fully erupted, directly taking over her consciousness.

To save her, you and Dream Hongshang knocked her unconscious and brought her back to Peach Mountain.

After waking up on Peach Mountain, Nangong Liuli's mind reverted to her childhood, and her mature consciousness, unwilling to face you, refused to take control of her body.

With Nangong Liuli in a childlike state of mind, you unconsciously treated her like a daughter and built many recreational facilities for her.

When Mount Emei came to demand her return, her mature consciousness once tried to regain control but chose to feign death because she couldn't bear to leave you and Dream Hongshang.

After you possessed Nangong Liuli, the Yin Qi of her Seven Yin Absolute Body erupted, instantly strengthening her Heart Demon by more than ten thousand times, and you and Dream Hongshang both perished.

After your Transmigration, you lived for fifteen years, enduring a life of being a 'licking dog,' but through various Destinies, you actually succeeded, so it wasn't a loss.

Evaluation: Licking dog, licking dog, you can have everything.

...

Calculating rewards, please do not leave...

You have obtained the 'Nine Bulls and Two Tigers' talent.

Nine Bulls and Two Tigers conflicts with the 'Ox-Like Strength' talent. Do you wish to fuse them?

Seeing that Fusion was possible, Su Mo immediately chose to fuse.

He had already tasted the sweetness of the Fusion between Solar True Fire and Haoran Righteousness last time, so naturally, he wouldn't miss it again.

...

You have chosen talent Fusion.

Nine Bulls and Two Tigers and Ox-Like Strength talents are fusing...

Congratulations, you have obtained the fused talent 'Strength of Ten Bulls and Two Tigers!'

Strength of Ten Bulls and Two Tigers: Your Physique is greatly enhanced, possessing strength equivalent to the combined total of ten strong bulls and two fierce tigers.

...

As the talent Fusion succeeded, Su Mo immediately felt a surging, powerful force coursing through his body.

It continuously strengthened every cell and every muscle fiber within him.

This feeling...

It was exhilarating.

Su Mo felt himself being strengthened.

Although his body shape hadn't changed, his actual strength was more than ten times greater than before.

He genuinely possessed the Strength of Ten Bulls and Two Tigers!

Immediately after, Su Mo started a new simulation.

This time, his identity was the son of a County Magistrate in the Great Tang Dynasty, and his talent was the green 'Bewitching Hearts.'

Although the start was good.

It was the best start he'd had in a while.

But after having just experienced one simulation, Su Mo no longer had the desire to continue watching, so he chose to idle.

After idling.

Su Mo prepared to go out.

He picked up Xu Miaoyin, feeling as light as a baby.

After his strength increased, the sensation of weight had changed drastically for him.

He gently placed her down, covered her with the quilt, and during this time, Su Mo was extremely careful, fearing he might accidentally hurt the beauty if he didn't control his strength properly.

He got dressed and went out into the courtyard.

To adapt to this 'new body,' he needed to perfectly control his physical strength, otherwise, there was a high chance he could injure others.

Seeing Su Mo come out, Yu Luoniang excitedly spun a few times on her web.

"Sir, can I come in now?"

Su Mo nodded softly.

"Yu Niang, don't mind me for now."

"I've had a Breakthrough in my cultivation and need to re-adapt to this strength."

After speaking, Su Mo began practicing his punches in the courtyard.

Each exertion of force created bursts of air explosions.

This gave Su Mo a clear understanding of the Strength of Ten Bulls and Two Tigers.

He thought that even Li Yuanba and Luo Shixin from the Sui and Tang Dynasties' stories might not have been this strong.

After his Physique was enhanced, Su Mo's stamina was extremely strong; he continued to practice until dawn without any fatigue.

Even his breathing showed no change.

Yu Luoniang finally realized that her Sir's Physique had indeed increased many times over.

This made her full of anticipation for the future.

"Sir, your stamina is so strong now!"

"Someone like Fei Lingxue, I feel like you could handle ten of her at once now!"

"This slave is truly looking forward to it."

Yu Luoniang's every other word was about this, making Su Mo wonder if she was addicted to watching.

"Alright, alright."

"All day long, that's all you watch."

"I'm going to cook."

With that, Su Mo went to the kitchen.

Yu Luoniang pouted.

Really, you're allowed to do it, but I'm not allowed to watch, huh...

Thinking of her Sir's current monstrous Physique, Yu Luoniang was filled with anticipation.

She really wanted to see that girl Fei Lingxue begging for mercy.

In the kitchen.

Because he couldn't control his strength, Su Mo accidentally cut through a chopping block with the kitchen knife.

This made him feel a little pained.

A good chopping block cost one tael of silver.

Although he had gotten over two thousand taels from Fei Lingxue, he couldn't just waste it like this.

After making breakfast.

After leaving food for Xu Miaoyin, Su Mo carried the lunchbox and walked out of the restaurant.

He was now going to deliver breakfast to Fei Lingxue.

Seeing this, Yu Luoniang immediately jumped onto Su Mo, then shrank and climbed behind his ear.
