152: Help Chi Rong cultivate

At the very moment that incredibly solid Primal Yang Power flooded into her Dantian, she felt her entire body suddenly become light! It was as if a thousand-pound burden had been lifted, or as if she were soaking in a warm spiritual spring; from her Divine Soul to her Physical Body, she felt an indescribable sense of transparency and comfort.

That Primal Yang Power, gentle as water yet solid and pure, slowly flowed and saturated her Meridians.

Everywhere it passed, it brought a strange numbness and warmth.

This power seemed to possess a life of its own, carrying vibrant vitality as it gently yet firmly nourished and repaired the tiny hidden injuries left in her Meridians by a damaged Spiritual Root or past cultivation. Simultaneously, it quietly widened and strengthened her Meridians, making them tougher and broader, capable of containing even more majestic spiritual power!

What shook Chi Rong's mind even more were the changes within her Dantian!

The influx of Primal Yang Power was like a blazing star cast into a calm deep pool, instantly blending perfectly with her own spiritual power! Her spiritual power, which had been somewhat flighty and restless due to impacting the Bottleneck, began to become more condensed and pure at a speed visible to the naked eye under the harmonization and nourishment of this supremely Yang and pure power! Her Dantian Qi Sea seemed to transform into a furnace; under the catalysis of the Primal Yang Power, her own spiritual power was repeatedly tempered and refined, its density increasing sharply, shimmering with an even more brilliant and solid light!

The growth of her cultivation was clearly perceptible!

Chi Rong could clearly 'internally view' the spiritual power 'vortex' in her Dantian, which represented the Peak of the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage, rotating and compressing at high speed under the push and tempering of the Primal Yang Power! With every rotation, it absorbed and refined the dense Spiritual Qi around it while compressing its own spiritual power to be even more solid!

At the center of the vortex, a core of extremely pure spiritual power shimmering with a liquid luster was slowly condensing and growing! This was precisely the sign that spiritual power was beginning to transform into a higher-level 'liquefied' state, a key step in breaking through to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage!

Her cultivation Bottleneck, which had been stagnant for a long time, finally began to loosen violently under the combined internal and external forces—especially the nourishment of Lu Yang's pure and majestic Primordial Yang Origin! That invisible barrier, under the gentle washing and overbearing impact of the continuous pure energy, saw cracks spread rapidly like a spiderweb!

Feeling the vigorous vitality, the rapidly condensing spiritual power, and the violently loosening Bottleneck within Chi Rong's body, a gratified curve hooked the corner of Lu Yang's mouth.

He no longer hesitated; with a movement of his mind, he pushed his own Primordial Yang Origin to the limit!

Boom!

An even more majestic and pure torrent of Primordial Yang, like the waters of a celestial river bursting a dam, flooded into Chi Rong's body with an irresistible momentum, accurately and violently impacting that crack-filled barrier!

Inside the Quiet Chamber, the stardust glimmer still flowed, and the milky-white spiritual mist lingered. Time passed quietly in the self-forgetful cultivation, and in the blink of an eye, two hours had already gone by!

During this time, the profound power of the Dragon Phoenix Yin-Yang Art cycled repeatedly, endless and self-sustaining.

Lu Yang was like a tireless perpetual motion machine! His expression was as usual, his breath steady and long, and his eyes as sharp as a newly unsheathed precious sword.

He actually performed eight full cycles of deep Dual Cultivation with Chi Rong in one go, going all out every time to transfer the pure and vast Primal Yang Power into Chi Rong's body without reservation, yet he himself showed no sign of spiritual power depletion or mental fatigue!

That bottomless Primordial Yang Origin and formidable recovery ability caused waves of shock to rise in Chi Rong's heart once again as she sensed it all.

And now, all the effort finally met its most bountiful reward!

"Buzz—!"

A clear, high-pitched hum, like the striking of a jade chime, rang out from deep within Chi Rong's Dantian! An aura far stronger, more condensed, and more harmonious than before, like a dormant volcano suddenly erupting, burst forth from her body! The spiritual mist in the Quiet Chamber was stirred by this aura, forming small vortexes.

Chi Rong snapped her eyes open, a sharp light shooting from her pupils like stars piercing the night sky! An unprecedented sense of powerful strength filled her entire body; as her spiritual power circulated, it was smooth and natural, without the slightest bit of stagnation!

Peak Foundation Establishment! She had finally successfully broken through the Bottleneck that had troubled her for so long, stepping into the Realm of Peak Late Foundation Establishment Stage in one fell swoop!

But the surprise went far beyond this!

When she internally viewed her Dantian, the joy in her heart almost overflowed! Within the Dantian Qi Sea, the original vortex had disappeared, replaced by a liquid spiritual power core that was smaller yet condensed to the limit, like the purest mercury, slowly circulating and emitting heart-palpitating energy fluctuations.

If all of this were absorbed, the Foundation of her new Realm would be incredibly stable!

What shocked her even more was that around this liquid spiritual power core, a large amount of pure Primal Yang Power that had not yet been fully refined and absorbed was actually lingering and settling! This Primordial Yang appeared as a faint gold, like molten warm gold, gathering together to form a small pond of Primordial Yang that radiated majestic vitality!

She could clearly feel the vast energy contained within—this was almost equivalent to a massive extra Opportunity Lu Yang had gifted her!

If she could fully absorb and refine this Primal Yang Power and integrate it into her liquid spiritual power core, her cultivation would not only stabilize at Peak Foundation Establishment, but she could even take a solid step toward the Golden Core Great Dao, saving at least ten years of hard work!

"Whew..." Chi Rong let out a long, satisfied breath of turbid air, which even contained traces of pure spiritual power light. She slowly withdrew her palms from Lu Yang's, feeling the surging, unprecedented power within her body. She could no longer suppress the heartfelt, brilliant ecstasy on her face, like the morning glow! From her brows to the corners of her eyes, she was brimming with the excitement of the Breakthrough and infinite longing for the future.

"Congratulations, Senior Sister. Your long accumulation has finally paid off, and you have reached Peak Foundation Establishment!" Lu Yang spoke at the right moment, his voice carrying sincere congratulations while also hiding a hint of satisfaction with his own results. Looking at the unmistakable bright smile on Chi Rong's face and the pond-like accumulation of his own Primal Yang Power within her, he was also filled with a sense of accomplishment.

Chi Rong looked up, her gaze toward Lu Yang filled with complex and difficult-to-describe emotions—gratitude, shock, joy, and an indescribable sense of closeness. She opened her mouth, and her thousand words eventually turned into a trembling, sincere sentence: "Junior Brother Lu... this kindness... this Senior Sister will never forget it!" She could even feel that the sliver of spiritual power condensed at her fingertips carried an unprecedented sense of solidity and power, as if a gentle flick could pierce through gold and stone!
