64: Chapter 64 Playing...played to death?

Chen Shanzhi held his breath and concentrated, transforming his Divine Thought into a massive net.

He cast it over the first shimmering golden ancient character in his Sea of Consciousness.

Upon first contact, as if sensing Chen Shanzhi's intentions...

A massive pressure, originating from the primordial era, surged back toward Chen Shanzhi's Divine Thought like Mount Tai pressing down.

Chen Shanzhi raised an eyebrow.

Interesting, quite fierce!

But he didn't retreat in the slightest, his Divine Thought tightly wrapping around that large golden character.

Cooperating with the extremely pure, cool aura coming from Tang Xiaowu...

He began to slowly wear down and erode the golden character.

With the help of this cool aura, Chen Shanzhi's Divine Thought went to work.

The originally indestructible golden pressure began to gradually melt away like ice and snow.

Only a moment passed.

With a soft 'crack' sound...

In Chen Shanzhi's Sea of Consciousness, the first large golden character shattered with a bang.

Chen Shanzhi felt that after dissolving the pressure on the golden character, his Divine Thought seemed to have strengthened slightly?

However, it was so faint that it felt like an illusion.

The shattered golden character transformed into an extremely bright point of light, plummeting down from the Sea of Consciousness.

Following Chen Shanzhi's Extraordinary Meridians, it shot accurately into a certain meridian aperture within his body!

The moment the point of light entered his body...

Chen Shanzhi's entire body shuddered violently.

He clearly felt that the section of the meridian where the light point attached...

Seemed to widen slightly, and the toughness of the meridian also increased.

Because the True Yuan flowing nearby was like it had been injected with chicken blood.

The speed and intensity of the flow were a full thirty percent faster than usual!

"Holy crap!"

Chen Shanzhi cursed internally, his eyes instantly lighting up with terrifying brightness.

Wasn't this exactly like playing an RPG in his past life?

When you kill a mob and 'EXP +100' immediately pops up over your head as instant feedback?

There were no empty Bottlenecks; as long as he swallowed these characters...

His Divine Thought, Physical Body, and True Yuan would all be instantly strengthened!

Although the increase felt small, the sheer number of golden characters in his mind was overwhelming.

This extreme sensation of 'cheating' instantly ignited the fanaticism deep within Chen Shanzhi's bones.

He was like a starving ghost who had been hungry for weeks and suddenly fell into a Manchu Han Imperial Feast.

His Divine Thought transformed into a giant beast with a gaping maw, hungrily...

Beginning to crazily devour the remaining golden characters in his mind.

One, two, three...

Ten, fifty, a hundred...

As time passed...

The golden light points on the major Meridians within Chen Shanzhi's body grew more numerous and dense, like stars in the night sky.

It was as if a mysterious celestial map of the human body was being lit up.

He could feel that his Physical Body was undergoing a world-shaking qualitative change.

Every heartbeat seemed to contain the terrifying strength of an ancient bull.

But as good as it felt, problems soon arose.

As he devoured more golden characters...

The ancient pressure contained within the subsequent characters became larger and tougher.

It was like the mobs in a game getting higher and higher in level.

The speed at which Chen Shanzhi's Divine Thought devoured them slowed down visibly.

But that wasn't the most critical issue.

What annoyed Chen Shanzhi the most was that the cool aura coming from Tang Xiaowu...

Which was the 'Armor Penetration BUFF' he used to melt the pressure, was gradually failing to keep up!

He was now like a player in an internet cafe in the middle of a high-stakes team fight...

Whose internet speed suddenly dropped to a red 2G signal!

After devouring one golden character, he actually had to wait idly in his Sea of Consciousness for several breaths of time.

Only then would the next wave of cool aura support arrive to break the next character.

How could this be acceptable?

Interrupting someone's leveling is like killing their parents!

Chen Shanzhi instantly grew anxious.

He snapped his eyes open from within his Sea of Consciousness.

In the dim light, he saw Tang Xiaowu biting her red lips, eyes tightly shut, her hands braced against his chest.

That exquisite face was covered in fine beads of sweat, her expression carrying a hint of enchantment.

Chen Shanzhi reached out his large hands in a hurry and grabbed Tang Xiaowu's slender waist!

"Ah!"

Tang Xiaowu didn't have time to react and let out a startled cry.

Immediately after, Chen Shanzhi's hands yanked downward!

Tang Xiaowu's upper body instantly lost balance, her stunning fullness tracing an alluring arc in the air.

She was pulled down directly by Chen Shanzhi, collapsing onto his firm, burning chest!

Her two mounds of incredible softness slammed into Chen Shanzhi’s solid chest, instantly being squeezed out of shape.

But it wasn't over yet!

Chen Shanzhi, lying flat on the bed, suddenly pulled his feet back, planting them firmly on the bedboard.

His knees rose high, pointing straight at the ceiling.

His entire buttocks and hips were instantly suspended slightly off the mattress.

This was a position that required extreme core strength.

"Xiaowu, Cultivation isn't meant to be done the way you're doing it!"

Chen Shanzhi smiled slightly, his hands firmly locking onto Tang Xiaowu's waist and hips.

"Ah..."

Tang Xiaowu's entire body felt as if it had been struck by lightning, her beautiful eyes instantly widening into circles.

She bit her lip hard, her hands desperately clutching the muscles on Chen Shanzhi's shoulders, her nails sinking deep into his skin.

Her expression at this moment was complex to the extreme.

There was the pain of being treated roughly, yet also a pleasure that struck the depths of her Soul.

She desperately suppressed her throat, trying her best not to let out those shameful cries.

But Tang Xiaowu felt that her soft, delicate body...

Was currently like a lonely little boat caught in a tempestuous sea.

The wind howled, and the waves were monstrous!

How could a small wooden boat withstand such violent surges from the ocean?

"Mmm... ugh..."

Finally, the first extremely faint groan escaped uncontrollably from the depths of Tang Xiaowu's nose.

Like a flood that had breached a dam, once it started, it could no longer be stopped.

Then came the second, the third...

In the end, she completely gave up resistance, arching her snow-white neck, her red lips slightly parted...

As the saying goes, family affairs, state affairs, world affairs—all are of concern.

The sound of wind, the sound of rain, the sound of reading—all enter the ear.

And at the moment Tang Xiaowu completely let go of her body and mind...

Chen Shanzhi clearly felt it!

A frigid, cool aura, several times larger than before, surged frantically from Tang Xiaowu's body into Chen Shanzhi's Dantian!

"Here it comes!"

Chen Shanzhi was ecstatic.

Sure enough, Mr. Lu Xun was right.

A woman's potential is like water in a sponge; as long as you're willing to squeeze hard, there will always be some!

With the support of this massive 'Armor Penetration BUFF'...

He no longer had any reservations. While maintaining his pace, he once again sank his mind into his Sea of Consciousness.

He began to frantically devour the remaining golden characters like a whirlwind sweeping away clouds.

Two hundred... three hundred... five hundred...

On the Meridians within Chen Shanzhi's body, the golden light points were so dense they almost formed a brilliant galaxy.

He didn't know how much time had passed.

Just as Chen Shanzhi was immersed in this dual process of frantic 'EXP farming'...

Suddenly, there was a 'boom'!

An extremely pure, cool aura, ten times larger than before...

Erupted without warning from Tang Xiaowu's body like a volcanic eruption!

Then it rushed into Chen Shanzhi's body!

This aura was so massive that it even caused Chen Shanzhi's tough Meridians to feel a hint of swelling pain.

"Holy crap, why is there so much?"

Chen Shanzhi was momentarily stunned with surprise.

But he was currently at a critical juncture in devouring the golden characters and had no time to think deeply.

"Whatever, I'll take it all!"

Chen Shanzhi immediately mobilized this massive aura, transforming it into an indestructible sharp sword.

He slashed it fiercely toward the large remaining section of golden characters in his Sea of Consciousness!

It was like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood!

This massive aura directly helped Chen Shanzhi break through the pressure of several hundred golden characters in one go!

It wasn't until a full half of the dense golden characters in the Sea of Consciousness had been devoured...

That Chen Shanzhi suddenly stopped.

He suddenly discovered a very serious problem.

Since that massive cool aura had surged in earlier...

There was no longer the slightest bit of cool aura being transmitted from Tang Xiaowu's side.

Chen Shanzhi immediately stopped his physical movements.

He opened his eyes and looked down with some confusion at Tang Xiaowu, who was lying on top of him.

With one look, Chen Shanzhi was startled.

The beauty before him, whose face was originally pure and exquisite, was now so red it was almost purple, as if blood would drip out at any moment.

Her large, watery eyes had actually completely lost focus.

Her eyes were rolled back, showing only the whites.

Her crimson lips were slightly open, and crystal-clear saliva flowed uncontrollably from the corner of her mouth.

And her delicate body was twitching as if she were being electrocuted.

"This... how did she get broken after just this long?"

Chen Shanzhi rubbed his nose and muttered with some confusion.

The Physique of the Saintess of the Witch Clan shouldn't be this poor, right?

She has the foundation of the Twelve Mysterious Apertures, after all. This is her combat strength?

With a hint of bewilderment, Chen Shanzhi instinctively turned his head to look at the closed window of the bedroom.

That look was enough to make Chen Shanzhi freeze in place.

On the wooden lattice window covered with expensive screens, threads of light were already filtering through.

The sky was actually starting to turn white!

"Holy crap?"

Chen Shanzhi's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

It's dawn?

I've been busy from yesterday evening all the way until early this morning?

The two of them had been at it for an entire night?

Chen Shanzhi clenched his fist in disbelief, sensing his current physical state.

Not only was there not the slightest bit of exhaustion from the all-night battle...

But he felt refreshed, his internal Qi and blood like an awakened dragon.

He was so full of energy he could practically kill an elephant with one punch!

"Could it be..."

Chen Shanzhi immediately realized: "Is it because I absorbed those golden characters?"

Chen Shanzhi squeezed his fist, feeling the terrifying power at his fingertips that could seemingly crush the very air.

This red-tier Body Refining Cultivation Technique was indeed perverted!

However... this was hard on Xiaowu.

No wonder this girl had completely surrendered.

An entire night of bombardment—even a mature woman would be broken by that.

Chen Shanzhi reached out a hand and pulled over the scattered silk quilt from the inner side of the bed.

With a flick of his wrist, he covered both their bodies with the quilt, hiding the room full of intimacy.

Then, Chen Shanzhi's right hand gently rested on Tang Xiaowu's smooth, delicate, yet sweat-soaked white back.

Following that, an extremely gentle True Yuan began to surge slightly from his palm.

Following the curve of Tang Xiaowu's spine, he stroked her up and down with extreme tenderness.

Bit by bit, he nourished her exhausted body.

Although Tang Xiaowu's consciousness had scattered, her body felt this warmth.

She instinctively let out a soft moan, like a kitten seeking protection.

Curling her body, she snuggled into Chen Shanzhi's embrace and fell into a deep sleep.
