104: Chapter 104 Just formed his core, and now he's going to be severely consolidated?!

After entering the Immortal Cave.

Cao Kun activated all the defensive and soundproofing Formations within the cave.

This setup made it clear he was about to display his Divine Might.

Liu Rumeng's pretty face was flushed red as she stood obediently to the side, waiting.

Those slender, jade-like legs, wrapped in snow-white silk stockings, were pressed together uneasily.

The lace headband atop her head made that charming face look even more lovely.

She appeared both shy and excited.

“Come here.”

Cao Kun walked over to the large white jade Cloud Bed, sat down, and patted the spot beside him.

Liu Rumeng immediately hurried over with small steps and sat down close to Cao Kun.

She could clearly feel the raging Solar Essence emanating from Cao Kun's body.

Just being near him caused the Crimson Flame spiritual power within her to start stirring restlessly.

Cao Kun smiled and flipped his wrist.

A smooth, plump Medicinal Pill appeared in his palm.

The rich medicinal fragrance quickly filled the entire inner chamber.

“This... is this the Hunyuan Golden Pill?!”

Liu Rumeng's beautiful eyes widened as she cried out in surprise.

She recognized it at a glance.

This was the prized treasure of her Revered Master, Meng Yudie—a top-tier Rank Six pill!

It was a supreme treasure capable of significantly boosting the quality of Core Formation and solidifying one's Dao Foundation.

“Open your mouth.”

Cao Kun held the pill to her lips.

“Today, your husband will help you form a Top-grade Golden Core!”

Liu Rumeng stared fixedly at Cao Kun, her eyes suddenly turning red.

The grievances and fears accumulated in her heart for many days completely burst forth at this moment.

Large teardrops rolled down her cheeks.

Ever since she saw Leng Qingyue take the step to form her core before her,

The anxiety in her heart had never stopped.

Especially as Cao Kun's cultivation soared uncontrollably.

In just half a month, he had rushed from Core Formation to Nascent Soul.

That massive sense of disparity made her feel as if she were suffocating.

As a Disciple of the Hehuan Sect, she knew all too well.

The help a low-level Cultivator could provide to a high-level one was negligible.

Once her cultivation failed to keep up, she wouldn't even be able to provide feedback through Dual Cultivation.

She would become nothing more than a useless, pretty vase.

She was afraid her cultivation was too low to keep up with Cao Kun's pace.

She was even more afraid that once she lost her utility, Cao Kun would casually cast her aside.

Because Liu Rumeng realized that she had long since become unable to leave him.

That black ring hadn't just locked her Divine Soul; it had locked her heart.

In order to keep Cao Kun,

Liu Rumeng had even been sneaking into the top floor of the Sect's library during this time.

She looked through ancient texts that she would usually find too shameful to even glance at.

Those were all the signature techniques left behind by generations of Hehuan Sect Seniors.

Liu Rumeng thought that if her cultivation couldn't be raised,

She could at least rely on her skills to make her Revered Master crave her so much that he could never leave her.

But now.

Not only did Cao Kun not look down on her for her low cultivation,

He had even casually given her such a precious pill.

Liu Rumeng was moved to tears.

Cao Kun reached out and patted her perky, rounded rear, laughing softly. “What are you crying for? The pill fell on the floor.”

Liu Rumeng sniffled and quickly picked up the Hunyuan Golden Pill from the ground.

Without a second word, she stuffed it directly into her mouth.

She wanted to progress so badly!

The Golden Pill entered her stomach.

The massive medicinal power immediately transformed into a surging torrent of Spiritual Qi, crashing through her limbs and bones.

An ordinary Cultivator would have had to immediately sit in meditation to regulate their breathing and refine the medicinal power with all their might.

But Liu Rumeng didn't care about refining it at all.

Her eyes were glazed and her delicate body was burning hot.

She flipped over and pinned Cao Kun onto the Cloud Bed.

“Revered Master... I've learned some new things.”

Before she had even finished speaking, Liu Rumeng took the initiative to kiss him.

...

The next seven days.

The sun rose and the moon set.

Inside the Immortal Cave, the spring scenery was boundless.

Cao Kun finally witnessed the crystallization of wisdom from generations of Hehuan Sect Ancestral Masters.

Although Liu Rumeng's techniques were still a bit unrefined, her attitude was extremely diligent; she applied what she learned and even innovated.

At times she was cute and charming.

At other times, she was as pitiable as a delicate flower.

Her temperament was ever-changing, yet she always managed to hit Cao Kun's pleasure points precisely.

Her Crimson Flame Spiritual Body erupted completely during the Dual Cultivation, perfectly blending with the vast Chaos Qi within Cao Kun's body.

The massive medicinal power of that Rank Six Hunyuan Golden Pill had also completely integrated into Liu Rumeng's Dantian and Qi Sea.

“Bang!”

As another Peak moment of spiritual power blending arrived,

Liu Rumeng's high ponytail came undone.

Her long black hair cascaded over her snow-white shoulders like a waterfall.

The surrounding Spiritual Qi converged frantically toward her.

“Rumble!”

The previously clear sky changed in the blink of an eye.

Dark thunderclouds gathered out of thin air, blotting out the sun.

Inside the Main Peak's Great Hall.

Qin Canglan was sitting in the main seat, receiving Elders from various Sects who had come to offer congratulations with a smile.

Feeling this familiar heavenly pressure,

Below, the Elder from the Shenhuo Valley stood up abruptly, looking outside the hall with a suspicious and uncertain gaze.

“Such pure Fire-attribute spiritual power!”

“Looking at the power of this Lightning Tribulation, the quality of the Golden Core your Disciple is forming is definitely in the Top-grade rank!”

The Tianjian Sect Elder was also full of envy, standing up and cupping his hands toward Qin Canglan.

“Congratulations, Sect Master Qin! The Hehuan Sect's Luck is flourishing, adding another Top-grade Golden Core Cultivator!”

It wasn't just the big shots who were shocked;

The low-level Disciples were absolutely buzzing.

“Someone else is making a Breakthrough?!”

“That direction... it's Baihua Peak!”

“Could it be Senior Sister Liu Rumeng? She's about to form her core too!”

Discussions broke out one after another.

Everyone watched the terrifying Lightning Tribulation that was about to fall with bated breath.

However.

When the first thick bolt of lightning struck, everyone felt relieved.

They saw Cao Kun with one arm around Liu Rumeng's slender waist, leaping into mid-air.

The grayish-black Chaos Qi transformed into a massive light shield, firmly protecting the two of them within.

The violent Lightning Tribulation struck the shield without even causing a ripple.

It was directly swallowed and exhausted by the grayish-black spiritual power.

It was converted into pure nourishment and fed back into Liu Rumeng's body.

...

Half a day passed.

The Lightning Tribulation dissipated.

Above Baihua Peak, a vast expanse of fiery red clouds drifted, stretching for hundreds of miles!

This was a heavenly phenomenon triggered by the Major Achievement of the Crimson Flame Spiritual Body.

It made the entire Hehuan Sect look like a dreamlike fantasy.

At this point, everyone in the Hehuan Sect was completely stunned.

They looked at each other, all murmuring in their hearts:

Grand Elder Cao is practically a living immortal!

When others undergo tribulation, it's a life-or-death struggle where they'd give anything to survive.

But for him, he can just casually mass-produce Top-grade Golden Cores!

Among the crowd, the eyes of the beautiful female Disciples turned red.

The flames of jealousy burned fiercely in their hearts.

“Senior Sister Liu is so lucky! She didn't even have to face the Lightning Tribulation herself; she basically formed her core while lying down!”

“Waaaah, why didn't I get to know the Grand Elder sooner!”

“If the Grand Elder would just spare me a glance, I'd be willing to work for him like a slave!”

Ignoring the commotion outside,

Cao Kun carried Liu Rumeng back into the Immortal Cave.

After successfully forming her core, Liu Rumeng had undergone a cleansing of her marrow and tendons, and her temperament had changed significantly.

Her already charming face now possessed an added touch of mature charm.

In particular, her voluptuous figure had undergone a second development, becoming even more full and upright.

She opened her beautiful eyes, which were filled with an inseparable spring-like longing.

Because she had just formed her core, the Crimson Flame spiritual power within her was in its most active state.

Without waiting for Cao Kun to react,

Liu Rumeng had already taken the initiative to press against him.

She wrapped her arms around Cao Kun's neck, her breath smelling like orchids.

“Revered Master...”

“Quickly help me... consolidate my cultivation!”

The Restriction on the Immortal Cave was quietly activated once again.

It completely shielded the waves of soft moans that invited imagination.

Liu Rumeng
