155: An unexpected meeting with Yue Xiyan...

Although Yue Xiyan had not yet awakened, the blush on her jade-like face was gradually fading, and her subconscious mind, deep in slumber, could still hear him speaking.

Li Shengyuan shifted Yue Xiyan's delicate body, helping her sit up with her back to him.

He then stabilized Yue Xiyan's body to help her regulate it, preventing any adverse reactions after she absorbed the God-Demon Origin.

After all, it was his first time having someone else absorb the God-Demon Origin, and he didn't know what changes it would bring.

'System, integrate a wisp of God-Demon Origin into Sister Yan's body.'

Ding!

"The person being integrated is currently physically weak and is absorbing it for the first time. They need to slowly adapt to the power of the God-Demon Origin, so the integration time will be longer. Please wait patiently."

"Integration progress: 1%..."

Upon receiving the system's prompt, Li Shengyuan breathed a slight sigh of relief. Since it said this, integrating the Origin would certainly not be a problem.

However, he still focused intently on sensing the changes in Yue Xiyan's body, just in case.

Gradually, an energy very familiar to Li Shengyuan spread within Yue Xiyan's body; it was precisely the power of the God-Demon Origin.

Yue Xiyan's brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of pain appeared on her face, but thankfully, there were no other adverse reactions.

Li Shengyuan could even sense a special connection forming between him and Yue Xiyan; the God-Demon Origin resonated!

This connection was even more intimate than when cultivating the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique!

Logically speaking, the God-Demon Origin was similar to the power of Yin and Yang. If he used the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique, he wondered if it would produce an even better effect.

Li Shengyuan's heart stirred. Seeing that Yue Xiyan had no adverse reactions, he began to circulate the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique!

Li Shengyuan held his breath, waiting...

Not long after, the God-Demon power within Yue Xiyan's body was indeed drawn and stirred!

Li Shengyuan's spirits immediately lifted, and he began to calm his mind and cultivate by circulating the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique.

The power of the God-Demon Origin within both their bodies began to circulate through them.

The system indicated that the refinement progress had significantly accelerated!

Moreover, after passing through Li Shengyuan's body and then flowing into Yue Xiyan, the God-Demon Origin became much gentler...

Li Shengyuan felt that Yue Xiyan's lost Yang God Origin and vital essence were being rapidly replenished.

Although the God-Demon Origin was integrated into Yue Xiyan's body, even Li Shengyuan's own physical body and divine soul were strengthened!

He didn't know what effects this cultivation would have on him and Yue Xiyan, but if it was effective, that was all that mattered!

In fact, this cultivation effect was no less potent than dual cultivation!

Ten days later, the first wisp of God-Demon Origin was completely assimilated by both of them.

Yue Xiyan now looked much healthier. Although she had not yet awakened, she now seemed to be cultivating deeply.

The first stage ended, and Li Shengyuan let out a long breath.

His own Consumption had also been completely replenished during these ten days of cultivation.

Furthermore, his cultivation had advanced significantly, the refinement of his Undying Golden Body had reached a new level, and his Yin God was no longer far from transforming into a Yang God.

He hadn't expected that with the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique, a single portion of God-Demon Origin could actually have the effect of nearly splitting into two!

This effect was truly astonishing!

Looking at Yue Xiyan's healthy complexion in his arms, Li Shengyuan revealed a relieved smile.

The most miraculous thing was that Li Shengyuan felt a wonderful connection had formed between him and Yue Xiyan.

Even without circulating the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique, he could sense their connection.

Gazing at Yue Xiyan's sleeping face in his arms, Li Shengyuan, as if by some strange impulse, gently stroked her.

At this moment, he felt a very strong attraction to Yue Xiyan!

Then he softly said, "Sister Yan, your injuries, and the lost Yang God Origin and vital essence are almost fully replenished..."

"But I want to take this opportunity to continue cultivating with you, to elevate our cultivation to a higher level!"

"Perhaps you even have a chance to break through to the Second Rank by doing this!"

As he spoke, Li Shengyuan's breathing quickened. Having witnessed the Demon Venerable, a Second Rank cultivator who only experienced six heavenly tribulations, Li Shengyuan also yearned for this power immensely!

If Yue Xiyan could break through to the Second Rank first, it would also be a good choice, and the Northern Realm would surely be safe.

Li Shengyuan continued, "Sister Yan, you've already experienced it. The second time won't be as painful as the first, and the time will be significantly shortened."

"Sister Yan, I'm coming again..."

Although Yue Xiyan did not awaken to give him a reply, Li Shengyuan felt a subtle fluctuation from his spiritual connection with Yue Xiyan.

It was as if Yue Xiyan was replying to him, "Shengyuan, go ahead, I'm ready!"

Li Shengyuan took a deep breath, 'System, integrate the second wisp of God-Demon Origin into Sister Yan's body!'

Ding!

"God-Demon Origin is integrating..."

The familiar power once again spread from within Yue Xiyan's body, and Li Shengyuan immediately began to circulate the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique.

With the experience from the first time, Li Shengyuan was much more familiar with the process this time...

Moreover, he felt that the connection between him and Yue Xiyan became even closer. When circulating the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique, he could even know what the other person was thinking!

After an unknown period, Li Shengyuan, who had been focused on circulating the Yin-Yang Origin Stream Technique, suddenly felt himself arrive in a peculiar space.

Here, the cold air was dense, and it was filled with misty vapor everywhere. He was also stepping on shallow water, all of which seemed like a paradise on earth!

"Where is this? Where did it take me in a blink of an eye? Is this still the Far North?"

Li Shengyuan was filled with doubt. He remembered that he wasn't cultivating with Yue Xiyan, refining the God-Demon Origin?

How did he inexplicably appear here?

But the next moment, Li Shengyuan felt a strange connection with this mysterious space.

Following this connection, Li Shengyuan walked on the shallow water, curiously observing his surroundings.

After parting a layer of mist, Li Shengyuan felt the connection become clearly visible.

The next instant, Li Shengyuan's expression greatly changed. He saw Yue Xiyan, dressed in white like snow, seemingly merged with this world, sitting cross-legged on the water in front of him, appearing to be cultivating!

"This..."

Li Shengyuan was stunned for a moment, then his eyes suddenly widened, and a guess formed in his mind.

"If this isn't an illusion... then I am currently in Sister Yan's Sea of Consciousness!"

For a moment, Li Shengyuan's mind was stirred, unable to calm down for a long time. How was it that while cultivating, he suddenly came to Sister Yan's Sea of Consciousness?

He walked up to Yue Xiyan, staring at her blankly, not making a sound to disturb her.

Just like that, Li Shengyuan didn't know how much time had passed.

Being so close, the connection between them became even more intimate. Looking at Yue Xiyan's exquisite face, Li Shengyuan reached out his hand again, wanting to touch her.

However, just as his hand touched Yue Xiyan's cheek, before he could even feel it, Yue Xiyan's tightly closed eyes trembled slightly, and then her clear, cold eyes opened, meeting Li Shengyuan's gaze.

Li Shengyuan's hand also froze...

Gradually, a hint of surprise, confusion, and bewilderment appeared in Yue Xiyan's eyes, as if she hadn't expected him to be there.

Immediately after, her eyes filled with tenderness, and she actually tilted her head slightly, pressing her face against his palm, and smiled gently at Li Shengyuan, softly saying:

"Shengyuan? How did you appear in my Sea of Consciousness?"
