79: Chapter 79 Holy crap, top-tier armor! Those legs!

[Ding! Ultimate hidden reward settlement complete!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Beast Tamer exclusive special Magical Artifact: soul-attracting lamp x1!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Beast Tamer exclusive punishment tool: zixiao god-suppressing whip x1!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Heaven Rank top-grade Martial Skill: One Sword Decides Life and Death x1!]

Three dazzling spheres of light floated within the inventory of the System space.

Cao Kun first turned his attention to that simple bronze lamp, which was a deep, eerie green.

soul-attracting lamp.

Seeing these three words, Cao Kun immediately thought of the Grade A warehouse in the Pill Pavilion's basement.

That half-moon-shaped jade pendant that had sucked dry half a warehouse's worth of high-grade Spirit Medicines and Medicinal Pills.

The System had previously prompted him that an extremely weak, bodiless top-grade Jade Beast Soul entity was hidden inside.

Conventional means simply couldn't touch it.

Now, this soul-attracting lamp had appeared at just the right time.

It was definitely a tool the System had custom-made specifically for capturing that mysterious Soul entity.

“Good stuff. Once I have some free time, I'll go and properly deal with that weak, mysterious guest.”

Cao Kun carefully put away the soul-attracting lamp.

He turned his gaze toward the second item.

It was a dark purple long whip, its surface flowing with fine arcs of lightning.

The body of the whip was crafted from the spinal column of some unknown Yao Beast, with each segment fitting together perfectly.

[zixiao god-suppressing whip: A Beast Tamer exclusive punishment tool.

Ignores any of a Jade Beast's protective spiritual power and Realm suppression, acting directly on the Divine Soul and Physical Body to deal true damage.

It is a common method for Beast Tamers to punish disobedient Jade Beasts.]

After reading this introduction,

Cao Kun inwardly cursed this damn System for being so improper.

However, despite the cursing, he really liked this whip flickering with lightning.

In the future, if anyone dares to act up, they'll have to take a lash from me first.

He continued to look down.

The final Jade Slip, emitting a terrifying killing intent, lay quietly in the System space.

[One Sword Decides Life and Death: A Heaven Rank top-grade Martial Skill.

Locks onto a target with extremely pure Sword Intent; once the sword is drawn, life and death are decided.

Combined with the chaos remnant sword's passive Chaos Sword Intent, it significantly increases the probability of instant-killing enemies of the same rank or above.]

Cao Kun took a deep breath.

Just hearing the name of this Martial Skill made it sound incredibly badass.

His strongest offensive move right now was the Ten-Level Collapse; although its power was fierce, it was ultimately geared toward close-quarters combat.

Now that he had the chaos remnant sword, paired with this Heaven Rank top-grade sword technique,

his offensive capabilities were completely perfected.

Looking at this pile of top-grade items, Cao Kun still wanted more.

This thrill of getting rich instantly from opening mystery boxes was simply addictive.

His eyes darted around as he suddenly remembered a box still lying in a corner of the System space.

That was the Golden Mysterious Gift Pack rewarded by the System when Yu Linglong's taming value reached 80.

Following the principle of enjoying the mystery box opening to the fullest, Cao Kun made a mental command.

“System, open that Golden Gift Pack for me too!”

[Ding! Golden Mysterious Gift Pack opening...]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: phantom mysterious nether stockings (Top-grade Magical Artifact-level armor; warm in winter and cool in summer, resistant to water and fire, never snags) x1!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: creamy frost-snow silk stockings (Same as above) x1!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: spirit cat dharma robe (Comes with cat ears formed from Spiritual Qi and an embedded plush tail accessory; natural charm) x1!]

“Good heavens...”

Cao Kun repeatedly praised the System in his heart for being a true kindred spirit.

What kind of 'top-grade Magical Artifact-level armor' is this?!

Who is this thing supposed to protect against?

It's protecting against my nutrient loss, isn't it?!

Although the dharma robes and immortal skirts of the cultivation world were elegant and beautiful, seeing them all the time would eventually lead to aesthetic fatigue.

If Yu Linglong or Leng Qingyue and the others were to put these on...

Just by imagining the scene, Cao Kun felt his blood surging.

Even the Chaos Qi in his Dantian began to stir restlessly.

Immediately after, the final grand prize appeared in the center of the panel.

It was a strange sphere of light emitting an interwoven glow of pink and Chaos colors.

Inside the sphere of light, the phantom of a nine-tailed Heavenly Fox could be seen faintly roaring toward the heavens.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a special Physique: Chaos Heavenly Fox Supreme Physique!]

[Item Description: A top-tier Physique nurtured at the dawn of time. (Note: This Physique follows a specific advancement path and is restricted for use on Jade Beast No. 1, 'Yu Linglong'.)]

[Effect 1: Rebirth. Completely reshapes the target's skeletal structure and Meridians, eliminating all hidden injuries and Impurities left behind from past cultivation.]

[Effect 2: Cultivation Amplification. The target's speed in absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is increased tenfold, and their comprehension of charm and illusion-type Cultivation Techniques reaches the top level.]

[Effect 3: Supreme Feedback. During Dual Cultivation, the target can refine their own spiritual power to the limit and provide a perfect feedback to the host without any loss; the feedback effect depends on the target's Realm.]

Seeing the detailed description of this Physique, Cao Kun was amazed.

Calling it a rebirth was an understatement; this was equivalent to giving Yu Linglong a direct factory reset!

Although Yu Linglong's original talent was decent, it could only be considered first-rate in the entire Qingzhou, not top-tier.

But now, with this Chaos Heavenly Fox Supreme Physique,

it would not only improve her cultivation speed and combat ability, but the most crucial part was the third effect.

It pushed the spiritual power feedback effect during Dual Cultivation to the absolute limit.

Cao Kun felt like his Golden Core was already becoming impatient.

Without a second word, he directly extracted that purple-gold sphere of light from the System space.

The pink-and-white interwoven sphere of light floated in Cao Kun's palm, emitting an intoxicating, exotic fragrance.

Cao Kun looked at Yu Linglong in his arms and gave a light chuckle.

“Open your mouth.”

Yu Linglong was now completely obedient to Cao Kun.

She didn't ask what it was at all; without even a hint of hesitation or thought, she obediently tilted her head back and slightly opened her luscious red lips.

With a flick of his wrist, Cao Kun placed the sphere of light into Yu Linglong's mouth.

The sphere of light melted the moment it entered her mouth.

Before Yu Linglong could even react, she felt a majestic power explode within her entire body!

“Mmph!”

Yu Linglong let out a muffled groan, her body suddenly tensing up.

This power was extremely overbearing, washing through Yu Linglong's Meridians like a tidal wave.

Those subtle hidden injuries she had accumulated from being stuck at the Golden Core Late Stage Peak for decades due to rushing for success,

were all smoothed over in the face of this power.

A layer of fine black Impurities seeped out from the pores of her fair skin.

But in the next second,

those foul-smelling Impurities were burned clean by the purple-gold flames rising from the surface of her body.

Her originally set skeletal structure emitted fine 'crackling' sounds as it was reshaped by this power.

Yu Linglong could clearly feel it.

The spiritual power within her body was undergoing a world-shaking qualitative change.

Her already pure Golden Core Stage spiritual power was now being forcibly compressed and refined.

What she found even more incredible was

that her Divine Soul had actually resonated with some kind of Great Dao between heaven and earth.

If she wanted to now, she wouldn't even need that grade 6 barrier-breaking pill.

She could immediately draw down the Lightning Tribulation and condense a Nascent Soul on the spot!

Half an incense stick's time passed.

The purple-gold flames on Yu Linglong's body gradually died out.

Cao Kun sized up the newly transformed Yu Linglong.

Her features hadn't changed much; she still had that same face that could bring ruin to countries and people.

However, her entire being exuded a completely different temperament.

The original Yu Linglong was beautiful, to be sure.

But that charm of hers ultimately still carried a hint of the Hehuan Sect's typical, cliché worldly air.

But now, it had turned into a naturally formed, seductive allure.

Her skin, after being baptized by the purple-gold flames, was also more supple and translucent than before.

Even if she was just quietly slumped in Cao Kun's arms right now without any provocative movements,

the naturally emanating aura of enchantment was enough to make any weak-willed Cultivator's Dao Heart collapse on the spot.

Cao Kun's Adam's apple bobbed up and down involuntarily.

He felt his Blazing Sun Spiritual Root start to stir restlessly.

He really couldn't hold back anymore.

The current Yu Linglong was simply a perfect work of art.

It was time to enjoy the exclusive benefits belonging to the master.

Fuck the artwork!

Cao Kun reached out.

He pulled out the phantom mysterious nether stockings he had just opened from the System space.

Pointing at her pair of long, slender, fair, top-grade legs, he said,

“Come, Linglong.”

“Put this on first and let me see the effect.”

Yu Linglong was stunned for a moment.

With her centuries of experience, she actually couldn't tell what material this Magical Artifact was made of.

There were no formation patterns on it at all, and it looked like it would tear at the slightest pull.

However, since it was her master's command, she naturally wouldn't refuse.

In fact, a hint of anticipation even rose in her heart.

Anything her master brought out surely had a special use.

“Master... how do I use this Magical Artifact?” Yu Linglong bit her lower lip and looked at Cao Kun with eyes like silk.

“So silly, that's not how you wear it.”

Cao Kun simply decided to guide her personally.

“Leg straight... right, slowly pull it up.”

That strange artifact turned into a faint, black shadow, slowly extending along with her movements.

As a faint light flowed, the artifact's unique hazy texture made her long legs appear even more flawless.

Her shapely, well-proportioned calves.

Finally, it climbed all the way up.

It amplified the charm brought by the Chaos Heavenly Fox Supreme Physique by more than tenfold.

“Does Master like it?”

Yu Linglong lightly lifted her purple skirt and elegantly crossed her long, jade-like legs.

She showed off this special artifact to Cao Kun with a charming posture.

The silky fabric made an extremely faint rustling sound as she moved slightly.

To Cao Kun's ears, this sound was practically a bugle call to charge.

Damn it!

Who could resist these legs?

Cao Kun rubbed his hands together, grabbed Yu Linglong's wrist, and pulled her into his arms.

“Ah—”

Yu Linglong let out a soft cry and instinctively hooked her arms around Cao Kun's neck.

Their eyes met, and sparks flew.

Cao Kun was just about to properly check the quality.

And while he was at it, test just how powerful the combat feedback effect of this newly minted Chaos Heavenly Fox Supreme Physique really was.

“Buzz, buzz, buzz—!”

The Sound-Transmitting Jade Talisman hanging at his waist suddenly began to vibrate.

Cao Kun's movements stiffened.

He looked down with a face full of annoyance.

Yu Linglong also looked resentful.

She had finally waited for her master's anger to subside and was prepared to perform well to make up for all the grievances she suffered last night.

She didn't know which blind fool had to come and ruin the mood at a time like this.

Cao Kun suppressed his restless Blazing Sun Spiritual Root.

He snatched the sound-transmitting talisman from his waist and injected spiritual power to connect it.

From the other end of the talisman, Nangong Wan's voice immediately came through.

“Husband...”

Nangong Wan's voice was very soft, kept low as if she were afraid of being overheard.

“Peak Master Meng Yudie of Baihua Peak... has come to our Pill Pavilion.”

“She says she has urgent business with you and must see you immediately.”

“Judging by her demeanor, it seems quite urgent. Husband, what do you think...”

When Cao Kun heard the name Meng Yudie, his originally irritable mood calmed down.

It had been exactly three days since he had tricked Meng Yudie into buying that Chongwu Spirit Ring in Liu Rumeng's Immortal Cave!

Today was precisely the day he had agreed to the transaction with Meng Yudie!

“Old vixen, she's quite punctual.”

Cao Kun snorted coldly in his heart.

The image of Meng Yudie's plump and seductive figure surfaced in his mind.

Along with her habit of always trying to test him with a high-and-mighty attitude.

Actively sticking your neck into the noose—you chose this yourself.

I'll show you how I'll deal with you today!

“Tell her I'll be there right away.”

Cao Kun cut off the sound-transmitting talisman.

He looked at the enchantingly posed Yu Linglong, a wicked fire flashing in his eyes.

“Keep that artifact on your legs, don't take it off.”

“When I get back, I'll properly check just how powerful this Physique of yours is.”

Although Yu Linglong was ten thousand times reluctant in her heart, she also knew that her master's official business could not be delayed.

Especially upon hearing the name of that vixen, Meng Yudie.

The alarm bells in her heart instantly went to full volume.

“Master, go attend to your business.”

Yu Linglong obediently straightened Cao Kun's lapels.

“That old vixen—Master, you absolutely must not let her take advantage of you.”

Cao Kun chuckled and lowered his head to plant a hard kiss on Yu Linglong's luscious red lips.

He didn't let go until she was breathless.

“Don't worry.”

“After today, she'll have to be just like you.”

“And obediently call me master.”

With that, Cao Kun turned and strode out of the inner chamber.

Leaving Yu Linglong standing there, watching his tall and straight back, her heart pounding like a drum.

Master's methods and shrewdness are truly becoming more and more unfathomable.

And increasingly irresistible as well.

Yu Linglong
