178: Chapter 178: Healing Begins

"Yin-Yang Origin Return Technique"!

As soon as those five large words lit up in his Sea of Consciousness, Chen Shanzhi felt as if he had been struck by lightning, standing there as stiff as a wooden chicken.

He was far too familiar with this thing!

In the original adult game, this was a top-tier Dual Cultivation Technique that could be said to break the game's balance, surpassing the Immortal Rank!

For no other reason than it was the only technique in the entire game that could evolve infinitely.

When first obtained, this technique was nothing more than an extremely pathetic Low Grade Mortal Rank Dual Cultivation Technique.

But as long as the original protagonist continuously practiced Dual Cultivation with the favored daughters of heaven in the game, the Rank of this technique would soar like a rocket, rising rapidly.

After all, it was an adult game world; without a Heaven-Defying Dual Cultivation Technique as a core cheat, how could it live up to the expectations of the readers?

But the problem was, the plot was wrong!

Chen Shanzhi's brow furrowed.

According to the original game's plotline, this "Yin-Yang Origin Return Technique" should clearly have belonged to the original protagonist, Tang Liu.

It was the ultimate cheat he was supposed to obtain after a narrow escape from death in the once-in-a-century opening of the Sihai Academy Secret Realm soon!

Although he had long planned to intercept this technique once the Academy Secret Realm opened...

Now, there wasn't even a shadow of the Academy Secret Realm yet, so how did this technique just pop into his head out of thin air?

Chen Shanzhi stroked his chin, his brain spinning rapidly like gears.

Before he and Ouyang Wanqing fell into that bizarre illusion in Shi Village, his Sea of Consciousness was definitely clean, with no sign of this thing.

Then, as soon as he woke up from the illusion, this technique was quietly lying in his Sea of Consciousness.

Could it be... the entrance to the Secret Realm that Tu Wanshen, the Sect Master of the God-Invoking Sect, created in Shi Village was actually the Sihai Academy Secret Realm?

As soon as this thought occurred to Chen Shanzhi, he immediately shook his head and dismissed it.

That's impossible; the entrance to the Sihai Academy Secret Realm is personally suppressed and sealed by the immortal stele left behind by the First Emperor.

It's an ironclad rule since ancient times: only Profound Gate Realm Martial Artists of the appropriate bone age can enter.

Although Tu Wanshen is incredibly powerful, ranked seventh on the immortal stele heaven rank and a genuine big shot, it's impossible for him to forcibly shatter the rules of the immortal stele to break in...

Wait!

Chen Shanzhi suddenly slapped his thigh as a background prompt from the game flashed through his mind.

The game explicitly mentioned that this opening of the Academy Secret Realm was a once-in-a-century "Full State Unsealing."

It seemed like just one Academy Secret Realm, but in reality, that ancient space contained countless broken, unknown regions.

Usually, these regions were fragmented, and only during this centennial opening would they all gather together!

And that entrance inside the Academy was just a precise fixed point at the very center after all regions had merged.

In other words...

The Secret Realm entrance Tu Wanshen opened in Shi Village was actually one of those fragmented regions currently located at the edge?

Because it wasn't yet time for the formal opening of the Academy Secret Realm, the overall Fusion of the Secret Realm wasn't completely finished.

So that rule of the immortal stele, "only the Profound Gate Realm can enter," hadn't taken effect in that peripheral region yet?

Tu Wanshen used this time difference to exploit a bug, using some wicked method like blood sacrifice to squeeze his way in?

Then the question arises again: why did this technique end up in his head for no reason?

Chen Shanzhi's mouth twitched as he imagined an extremely logical yet shitty scenario.

The initial state of the "Yin-Yang Origin Return Technique" was just a piece of trash at the Low Grade Mortal Rank.

When a heaven Rank big shot like Tu Wanshen got his hands on it, he probably just cursed, "What kind of garbage is this?"

Then, out of some twisted sense of humor, this old Devil Head conveniently struck this Dual Cultivation Technique into the Sea of Consciousness of the heir to the Marquis of Zhenguo, who had been caught in the array's aftermath.

And then he wanted to see the originally opposing sides—

Hiss—

You don't say, with the way those lunatics from the God-Invoking Sect think, they really would do something like this!

But Tu Wanshen failed to account for the fact that the world of the illusion was reshaped into an ordinary farming world without martial arts.

In that illusion, the concept of "Martial Dao" simply didn't exist.

In the illusion, he was just a destitute young master without even the strength to truss a chicken, completely lacking any memory of Cultivation.

This resulted in this Heaven-Defying Dual Cultivation Technique being completely blocked within the illusion.

It wasn't until he was about to use his Divine Soul to enter his Sea of Consciousness just now that he discovered this technique inside!

Having straightened out the cause and effect, Chen Shanzhi gave Tu Wanshen a metaphorical "thumbs up" with his middle finger in his heart.

"Old friend, you've really given me a great gift! I'll accept it with a smile without being polite!"

Pulling back his thoughts, Chen Shanzhi opened his eyes.

Now was not the time to study the cheat. On the bed, there was still a beauty who had stripped completely clean and was burning with shame, waiting for him to save her life.

"Feiyu, concentrate your mind; my True Qi is coming in."

Chen Shanzhi took a deep breath, his tone extremely serious and earnest, without any hint of teasing.

"Mhm..."

Jiang Feiyu closed her eyes tightly, her long eyelashes trembling violently like startled butterflies, and an extremely faint hum escaped her nose.

Chen Shanzhi wasted no more words. He steadily extended his right hand again, pressing it directly against Jiang Feiyu's flat, fair Dantian at her lower abdomen, which didn't have a speck of extra fat.

Upon contact, her skin was delicate and smooth, and due to her nervousness, it even carried a startling heat.

With a thought from Chen Shanzhi, the domineering and masculine True Qi of "Unrivaled Godly Marquis"...

Was instantly transformed by him, like peeling silk from a cocoon, into a trickling stream that gently flowed into Jiang Feiyu's body through his palm.

"Ugh—"

The moment the True Qi entered her body, Jiang Feiyu's body arched sharply, and she let out a sharp intake of breath from the discomfort.

Jiang Feiyu only felt a domineering, scalding heat flow, like a runaway horse, crashing directly into her Meridians that had become cold and stiff due to the erosion of the black Qi.

Two completely different forces met within her body.

The black Qi entrenched deep in her Meridians, like sharks smelling blood, instantly rioted, attempting to counterattack.

But how domineering was Chen Shanzhi's True Qi? Although small in quantity, its quality was of the crushing, most yang and masculine level!

"Ying..."

The intense stimulation of alternating heat and cold made it impossible for Jiang Feiyu to control her voice. Her red lips parted slightly, letting out an extremely charming low moan.

Chen Shanzhi's eyes were focused, without a single stray thought.

He controlled that strand of True Qi like a passing army, extremely forcefully expelling and refining the black Qi clinging to the inner walls of her Meridians.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...

Vaguely, it sounded as if the extremely faint sound of melting snow was ringing out.

As soon as the black Qi touched Chen Shanzhi's True Qi, it immediately began to dissipate rapidly, like raw meat touched by a hot iron.

But this black Qi was extremely cunning; seeing things were going south, it immediately fled in all directions along Jiang Feiyu's Meridians.
