372: Chapter 372 Cao Kun's Warm-Hearted Diary!

That ancient Jade Slip, interwoven with black and white, "whooshed" straight into Cao Kun's brow.

Boom!

Cao Kun felt a thunderous roar, like the creation of the world, explode within his Sea of Consciousness.

The next second, his consciousness was forcefully pulled away, arriving above a vast and boundless Universe Star Domain.

In this Star Domain, the glittering stars across the sky were moving along mysterious trajectories.

Under Cao Kun's gaze, they rapidly transformed into countless obscure and profound Dao runes.

Like waterfalls of galaxies, they continuously merged into his Physical Body.

Cao Kun closed his eyes and digested it for a full half-stick of incense worth of time.

Only then did he finally understand the Heaven-Defying nature of the Chaos Yin and Yang Creation Technique.

This Cultivation Technique was simply the ultimate cheat tailored specifically for him, a cheater possessing the Jade Beast Master System!

It could not only perfectly fuse all the special Physiques and talents of his bound Jade Beasts onto himself, but it could also purify the endless Chaos Origin within his body and feed it back to them without any obstruction, filling in their Dao flaws.

In other words, as long as Cao Kun bound enough strong Jade Beasts, his Physical Body, Spiritual Root, and talents would stack infinitely.

Eventually, he would reach a height no one could attain.

At the same time, he could feed them back, achieving true mutual evolution.

Cao Kun opened his eyes, stunned, remaining frozen in place for a long time, unable to snap out of it.

If the billion Chaos Sword Spirits in the Chaos God Emperor's hands back then were all Jade Beasts he had bound...

Wouldn't that mean the God Emperor had stacked a billion top-tier Physiques and talents?

Coupled with the Emperors Law borrowing the power of all living beings...

Just how monstrously strong was that old geezer back then?!

No wonder that old fellow could sweep across the heavens and myriad worlds, rubbing all races into the ground.

This snowball-like combat power stacking method was simply an unreasonable cheat!

After the shock, Cao Kun's eyes became incredibly fervent.

"No matter how awesome the God Emperor was, that is all in the past."

"Now that this invincible foundation has fallen into my hands, surpassing that old geezer is just a matter of time!"

His consciousness exited his Sea of Consciousness and returned to the third level of the Demon Suppressing Tower.

Cao Kun hovered in the Void Realm and opened the System panel.

"Use Jade Beast Slot Expansion Card!"

[Ding! Jade Beast slot expansion successful! Current slots: 15/16!]

Hearing this prompt, Cao Kun let out a long sigh of relief.

"Everything is ready; all that's missing is the Fairy."

Cao Kun, with the posture of a Creator, looked down at the rolling mist of the Mortal World below.

He directly locked onto the coordinates of the illusion realm where Yue Ningshuang was.

"Sect Master Yue, your bitter days are over; Master Cao has come to save you!"

...

Inside the illusion, heavy rain poured down.

The leading thug with a scarred face held a dripping ghost-head blade, pressing forward step by step.

Another thug grinned lewdly:

"Boss, stop wasting words with her."

"Although this woman has become a cripple, her figure is top-notch. Let the brothers have some fun first, then send her on her way!"

"It won't be a wasted life for her!"

Yue Ningshuang sat slumped in the mud, closing her eyes in despair. A clear tear mixed with muddy water slid from the corner of her eye.

Although she had lost all her cultivation and was now just a weak woman who had fallen into the Mortal World, waiting to be slaughtered, the pride in her bones would never allow her to be insulted by this group of ruffians.

Just as she groped for a sharp stone beside her, preparing to end her life,

"Boom!"

A purple-gold thunderbolt tore through the pitch-black night sky, illuminating the entire dead-end alley.

Cao Kun, wearing a black and white yin-yang dharma robe, descended directly into the illusion realm with the posture of a Creator.

He didn't even look at those few thugs, flicking his fingertips lightly.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Several wisps of purple-gold thunder Sword Qi appeared out of thin air.

In an instant, they silently ground those thugs into a sky full of blood mist, merging into the muddy water.

Hearing the commotion, Yue Ningshuang hesitated and opened her eyes.

What came into view was a handsome man who looked like an immortal descended from the heavens.

He held an oil-paper umbrella, blocking the pouring rain, and was looking down at her from above.

Cao Kun bent down slightly and extended a fair, slender hand toward Yue Ningshuang, who was sitting in the mud.

His voice was gentle, like a spring breeze brushing against her face:

"Miss, you have been frightened."

In the most desperate and helpless state of her life, Yue Ningshuang let down all her defenses.

Trembling, she raised her mud-stained hand and cautiously placed it in Cao Kun's palm.

The moment they made contact, a warm current surged from Cao Kun's palm into her limbs and bones, dispelling all the cold and fear.

"Thank you, Benefactor..." Yue Ningshuang's voice choked with sobs.

Cao Kun pulled her up, took her into his arms, and patted her back lightly:

"Don't be afraid, with me here, no one can hurt you again."

...

In the following time within the illusion, Cao Kun carried out the persona of a peerless good man to the end.

He took Yue Ningshuang to find a secluded bamboo forest with beautiful mountains and clear waters to live in.

Every day, he personally started the fire and cooked, brewing healing soup for her.

At night, he guarded her bedside, using gentle Qi to help her mend her broken Meridians.

If she casually mentioned wanting to eat osmanthus cake from the east of the city, Cao Kun would run out in the heavy rain to buy it, tucking it into his chest to keep it warm.

When Yue Ningshuang's body had recovered a little, Cao Kun would take her hand and visit those enemies who had framed and bullied her one by one, killing them all cleanly and efficiently right in front of her.

This meticulous care and absolute sense of security were simply like poison to a woman who had lost her memory and fallen to the bottom of the valley.

In just a few months, Yue Ningshuang's dependence on Cao Kun grew day by day.

She could no longer hide the deep love in her eyes.

On this day, the sun was just right.

Cao Kun was lying on a rocking chair in the bamboo courtyard, leisurely sunbathing, calculating that it was time to close the net.

Suddenly, Yue Ningshuang walked out of the house.

She was wearing coarse hemp clothes, yet could not hide her proud figure and stunningly beautiful face.

However, at this moment, she was holding a tattered cowhide notebook in her hand, with a bit of confusion in her cold purple eyes.

"Benefactor."

Yue Ningshuang walked to Cao Kun's side and handed the notebook over.

The moment Cao Kun's relaxed gaze inadvertently fell upon the notebook, he "sprang" up from the rocking chair.

Damn it!

That low-quality cowhide paper that couldn't be more familiar, that black quill pen.

Isn't this the "Wish-Granting Diary" given by the System?!

How could it appear here?!

"Benefactor, I found this under your pillow while I was cleaning the bed just now."

Yue Ningshuang pointed to the opened first page, where a line of large, sweeping characters left by Cao Kun was glaringly written.

[In a moment, I will make Yue Ningshuang oh-ho-ho!]

Looking at those large characters, Cao Kun felt awful, his scalp tingling.

He greeted the System's ancestors eighteen generations back in his mind.

"System! Damn you! Not only does your crappy prop have a delay, but it also randomly intrudes into the Mortal World illusion, right?!"

"I now seriously suspect that me opening the expansion card was because of my own good luck and has nothing to do with your crappy prop!"

"Come out and explain yourself!!!"

The System played dead and gave no response.
