54: Chapter 54 Oh~ Hoo hoo hoo~ I want you......

The flower was crystalline like jade, and under the sunlight, it seemed as if fresh blood was flowing across its petals.

As soon as it appeared, it radiated a vitality so rich it was almost tangible.

The entire Immortal Cave was instantly filled with a fresh, herbal fragrance.

Chen Yan only took a sniff, and he felt his Physical Body had become significantly more solid!

[Heavenly Treasure Blood Spirit Flower: Absorbs the blood of ancient exotic beasts, gathers Spiritual Qi from the earth's veins and the essence of the sun and moon; it sprouts in five hundred years, matures in five hundred years, and blooms in five hundred years! Consuming it has the effect of reshaping blood and bones and transforming the Physical Body!]

"What a treasure!"

The information fed back by the Xuantian Appraisal Technique made Chen Yan even more pleasantly surprised by this treasure that Lu Lingyun had gifted him!

He excitedly reached out to take the Blood Spirit Flower; it felt warm and smooth in his hand, almost like flesh and blood.

"Thank you, Grandmother!"

He bowed to Lu Lingyun and said, "With this, I will no longer need to worry about my Physical Body collapsing before reaching the Golden Core Realm!"

Lu Lingyun tapped his forehead lightly and scolded him with a smile, "You! You must not be so greedy for progress next time!"

"On the path of Cultivation, regardless of the Realm, it is always important to be steady and grounded!"

"Forcibly raising one's cultivation level abruptly might provide temporary pleasure, but it leaves endless hidden dangers!"

"Do you understand?"

She did not know the miraculous nature of the Cultivation Technique Chen Yan practiced, assuming instead that the hidden dangers were left over from his frantic consumption of Medicinal Pills to forcibly boost his cultivation during the minor competition.

Chen Yan did not explain, responding with a grin, "I know! I will definitely Cultivate honestly from now on!"

Immediately, he impatiently opened his mouth and stuffed the Heavenly Treasure Blood Spirit Flower inside!

"Swish~"

He tapped the center of his brow, and the Purple Sun Fire moved at his will!

It wrapped around the Heavenly Treasure Blood Spirit Flower, slowly refining it!

"Pop~"

It was like a bubble bursting.

Under the Purple Sun Fire, a corner of the Blood Spirit Flower was melted directly.

A rich vitality instantly erupted, flooding the Meridians and flesh of Chen Yan's body!

Following this, a terrifying Qi and blood belonging to an ancient exotic beast emerged from the Blood Spirit Flower.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Thunderous sounds suddenly erupted from within Chen Yan's body.

The power of Qi and blood transformed into an intangible blood-colored Dragon, carrying boundless vitality, constantly coursing through Chen Yan's internal organs, Bloodline, and bones, fusing and strengthening them!

"Ah~~ So comfortable~"

Chen Yan couldn't help but let out a moan.

His body felt as if it had just had an all-encompassing, full-body spa treatment!

His previously tense Physical Body instantly relaxed!

The nine lotus treasure lamp within his Dantian also slowly rotated under the influence of this Qi, blood, and vitality.

The Sword Heart Tempering Method operated on its own.

It helped Chen Yan absorb the Heavenly Treasure Blood Spirit Flower faster and increase the strength of his Physical Body!

"Crackling!"

His bones constantly emitted cracking sounds like firecrackers, and his physique grew along with the strengthening, undergoing a second growth spurt!

His hair grew longer, his limbs grew longer, his body grew longer...

Chen Yan forcibly suppressed the urge to open his pants and check if that had grown longer, accelerating his absorption of the Blood Spirit Flower!

He was already 1.8 meters tall, and his height had actually increased by nearly 10 centimeters!

His body proportions were as perfect as the golden ratio!

The clothes that were fitting a second ago were now clearly a size too small!

Lu Lingyun watched Chen Yan's changes, her eyes burning as if she were looking at a work of art!

If this kid could go act in plays, he would surely be very popular with female cultivators!

Until a short half-hour had passed!

Chen Yan opened his mouth slightly, exhaling the turbid Qi refined from within his body, and only then did he stop his Cultivation and stand up.

"Hum~"

As his Cultivation Technique circulated, his aura flowed naturally.

Foundation Establishment Realm!?

Chen Yan was somewhat puzzled.

How could his cultivation level drop after absorbing the Heavenly Treasure Blood Spirit Flower and improving his Physical Body strength?

"Hehe, no need to worry."

Lu Lingyun chuckled, covering her mouth with a round fan to hide her near-drool, her eyes shining brightly: "This is because the strength you gained previously by relying on Medicinal Pills was somewhat hollow!"

"After this tempering, your cultivation has been compressed and solidified!"

"It seems like your Realm has dropped, but in reality, it is far superior to before!"

Chen Yan clenched his fists, feeling the surging power within his body, and realized that what Lu Lingyun said was true.

If one ignored his Realm and looked only at strength, he was more than twice as strong as he was a moment ago!

What the f*ck?

I've heard of things like three thousand layers of Qi Refining, making one invincible in the world!

Could it be that I'm going to have three thousand layers of Foundation Establishment?

Damn!

That won't do!

How can I suppress Mahayana while still in the Foundation Establishment Realm?

Lu Lingyun looked at Chen Yan's sturdy body, laughing coquettishly as she teased, "Good grandson, your current physique is simply perfect!"

"If Grandmother were a thousand years younger, I would definitely pin you down!"

What the f*ck?

The old cow wants to eat tender grass?

Chen Yan shivered in fright, retreated half a step, hugged his chest with both arms, and subconsciously blurted out, "My body and heart belong to Revered Master!"

"Oh~ Ho ho ho!"

Lu Lingyun's eyes instantly lit up, and she looked at Chen Yan with a gossipy expression, "A romance between Revered Master and Disciple! How exciting~"

"I knew your gaze when looking at Qingshuang was ill-intentioned!"

Chen Yan blushed, realized what he had said, and hurriedly tried to defend himself, "No, no! My feelings for Revered Master are sincere!"

Lu Lingyun, however, chuckled "Hehe," saying, "Sincere in wanting to hit on your Revered Master?"

Chen Yan's face turned red, and he stammered, "What do you mean? How can things between a Revered Master and Disciple be called hitting on someone?"

"This is called love!"

The soul of gossip in Lu Lingyun's eyes could no longer be contained.

She suddenly leaned closer, lowered her voice, and said to Chen Yan, "I watched Qingshuang grow up!"

"I know many of her little secrets that no one else knows~"

"Thump thump! Thump thump! Thump thump!"

Chen Yan immediately felt his heart beating a bit fast.

A sense of guilt, like a thief, welled up within him.

But he couldn't suppress the thrill of wanting to know Revered Master's secrets.

He swallowed hard and asked, "What... what do you want to do?"

Lu Lingyun's eyes lit up instantly, scanning Chen Yan's body up and down, and she laughed "Ho ho," saying, "Oh~ Ho ho ho~ I want you..."

"Crack!"

In the main peak's great hall, Leng Qingshuang failed to control her strength for a moment and crushed the teacup in her hand.

Su Wenjian asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Leng Qingshuang tried her best to maintain a cold expression and replied indifferently, "It's nothing..."

Her autumn-water-like eyes shimmered, and she stood up, saying, "I have already learned the intelligence regarding the Demonic Sect. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave!"

Saying this, she didn't wait for Su Wenjian's reply and left the great hall directly.

Su Wenjian watched Leng Qingshuang's retreating figure and was somewhat puzzled, "Why does this girl seem a bit flustered?"

[Detected the host's Rebellious Disciple behavior, rebellious value + 1458!]

[Detected the host's Rebellious Disciple behavior, rebellious value + 1349!]

[Detected the host's Rebellious Disciple behavior, rebellious value + 1059!]

...

By the time Chen Yan left Lu Lingyun's Immortal Cave, it was already evening.

He held his waist, looking like his body had been hollowed out.

That old fujoshi, Lu Lingyun!

She actually took out an image recording stone and made him record several segments of overbearing CEO dialogue that were incredibly shameful.

She even channeled her inner drama queen, dragging Chen Yan to act out several melodramatic scenes of "The Overbearing Sword Venerable Falls in Love with Me, a Rural Woman"!

She even said she wanted to watch them with her sisters and make them die of envy!

Chen Yan didn't know if her old sisters would die, but if this image recording stone were discovered by the Revered Master of Alchemy Peak, who was also Lu Lingyun's husband...

He would probably be dead!

But for the sake of Revered Master's little secrets, Chen Yan gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, disregarded the danger to his life, and tearfully sacrificed himself!

Fortunately, it was all worth it!

Thinking of the secrets Lu Lingyun had told him, Chen Yan couldn't help but grin.

"Revered Master~ Your Disciple has returned!"
