Chapter 8 All Meridians Open
Half an hour later, A He slowly woke up—the heart-wrenching pain had vanished without a trace, replaced by an unprecedented sense of lightness and transparency.
As soon as she looked up, she met Lin Yue's gaze. Looking down, her clothes were completely soaked with sweat, clinging tightly to her body and outlining her budding yet alluring curves.
Seeing her wake up, Lin Yue had to shift his gaze away from A He's body. This little girl looked immature, but her figure was incredibly provocative; even he couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart.
"Hus... Husband..." A He naturally noticed the heat in Lin Yue's gaze and was instantly overwhelmed with shame.
Lin Yue composed himself and took out a Spirit Testing Stone covered in runes: "Come, place your hand on it and concentrate."
A He did as she was told, pressing her palm against the Spirit Testing Stone. The moment she concentrated, a sudden change occurred!
The Spirit Testing Stone abruptly erupted with a brilliant radiance! A vibrant green light full of vitality soared into the sky, illuminating the dim cultivation room like a dream, and a rich aura of life spread out!
"This... this is?!" A He stared at the miraculous scene, dumbfounded and completely bewildered.
Lin Yue, however, was ecstatic in his heart! Azure Vine Mysterious Water Spiritual Root!
The Azure Vine Mysterious Water Spiritual Root was an extremely rare Spiritual Root with a natural affinity for life. Most who possessed it were skilled at nurturing spiritual plants and could Cultivate all kinds of rare Spirit Medicine!
More importantly, a Cultivator with this Spiritual Root was extremely sensitive to Spiritual Qi, essentially a walking Spiritual Vein detector and a human Spirit Medicine catalyst!
Lin Yue didn't explain much, just looked into A He's bewildered eyes, his tone becoming more certain: "Your Spiritual Root has manifested. From today on, you can enter the Dao and Cultivate."
"Enter the Dao... Cultivate?" A He's voice was like a willow leaf trembling in the wind, shaking with disbelief.
This was once a dream far beyond her reach—after her parents died, she had been discarded by the Guo Family like a piece of trash because she lacked a Spiritual Root. How could she have ever dared to dream of the path to the Nine Heavens, where Immortal Masters breathed in Spiritual Qi and soared through the sky?
"It is naturally true." Lin Yue took out the Everspring Art Jade Slip, which glowed with a faint green light, and placed it in her palm. "This Cultivation Technique is gentle and most suitable for building your Foundation. From now on, you will retreat and Cultivate here."
Lin Yue carefully explained the breathing methods of the Everspring Art to A He. To his surprise, A He's Comprehension Ability far exceeded his expectations; after hearing it just once, she nodded and said, "I think I understand." During her first attempt at Qi Induction, a faint wisp of white Qi condensed at her fingertips. Within half a day, that white Qi flowed through her Meridians into her Dantian, directly completing the Qi Induction!
This scene left Lin Yue stunned—back then, when he performed Qi Induction, he had put in an immense amount of effort.
"Ding—" [Partner A He's Favorability +10, current Favorability is 45 points!]
[System Prompt: Host has successfully activated A He's rare Spiritual Root and provided instruction. Rewards issued:]
[Option 1: Cultivation directly Breakthrough to the seventh level of Qi Refining!]
[Option 2: Obtain the "Hundred Meridians Unblocked" Physique (Initial Stage)!]
Lin Yue's gaze lingered on the two options.
The temptation of the seventh level of Qi Refining was right before his eyes.
But his gaze fell on the description of Option 2—the prototype of an Ancient Divine Physique, capable of reshaping the host's Physical Body and life Origin:
[Lifespan Extension and Foundation Strengthening: Cleanses the aging shell, replenishes original vitality, extends Lifespan by twenty years; appearance and Physique will slowly return to prime levels.]
"Ancient Divine Physique!" Lin Yue's breathing suddenly became rapid.
The seventh level of Qi Refining was a "temporary thrill," but "Hundred Meridians Unblocked" brought a Foundation reshaping and infinite future potential!
More importantly, it directly solved his most fatal weakness—his nearing end of Lifespan and physical decay.
The changes to his Physique would be hidden within, undetectable by anyone, allowing him to play the pig to eat the tiger and gain valuable time to grow.
"I choose Option 2!"
Following his decision, an unprecedented warm current exploded from deep within his Dantian. It wasn't a simple infusion of power, but a cleansing and Rebirth originating from his life's Origin.
The most obvious change was in his skin—the originally dull skin, like old tree bark and covered in age spots, became tight and smooth at a visible rate. Although he didn't instantly become young again, the aura of decay from being at death's door vanished, replaced by a healthy glow.
At the roots of his frost-white hair at the temples, a hint of black actually began to emerge.
He felt his body become lighter and stronger than ever before, as if a thousand-pound burden had been lifted; every cell was cheering.
More importantly, the lingering shadow of death that heralded his end was forcibly dispersed by a surging aura of life—he knew that the additional twenty years of Lifespan had truly been added to his life.
However, Lin Yue soon encountered a small problem—the Physique enhancement not only improved his strength but also awakened his latent male instincts.
Looking at the youthful and vibrant A He before him, his gaze became more burning and aggressive, like a newly awakened beast eyeing its prey.
Soon, a certain part of his body reacted again—it was incredibly hard!
Just then, A He also looked over. She felt as if her husband had completely changed into a different person, no longer showing any signs of old age, replaced instead by the heat and vitality of a vigorous man.
Soon, she also noticed a certain part of Lin Yue's body; the bulge was too obvious.
"So big, so long, so thick! If..."
In an instant, her face couldn't help but turn burning red, and something seemed to be stirring in her heart.
She was only young, not completely ignorant.
Experienced this night, she seemed to have become much more "sensible"...
Only the sound of their gradually heavy breathing remained in the Stone Chamber. The surging hot masculine aura from Lin Yue and the youthful feminine aura from A He intertwined, making the air thick and sticky.
"Husband..." A He's face was flushed, her eyes lowered, not daring to look at Lin Yue at all, but her fingertips quietly gripped the corner of her clothes.
Clearly, she could feel the heat in Lin Yue's gaze and the burning aura emanating from his body, which seemed to stir and sprout something within her own body...
She was both afraid and a little expectant...
"This charming little loli, I'll have to take her down sooner or later!"
Looking at the pitiable yet seemingly inviting A He, Lin Yue couldn't help but lose some of his self-control.
But A He's favorability hadn't reached 90 yet; if he forced an intimacy, he would never be able to trigger the System's rewards again.
Finally, after a struggle with himself, Lin Yue suppressed the heat in his body: "Although your talent is good, Cultivation must be done step by step, little by little."
"Yes, husband." A He nodded, her face red.
"Alright, Cultivate with peace of mind. I'm going out to take a look." Lin Yue didn't dare stay here for a moment longer; if he lost control, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
Additionally, there were two other women outside who needed his comfort and handling.
