128: My nascent soul is a baby girl!?
After a full 20 days of tempering, Su Yang's Physical Body had completely transformed.
It was still the same body, but every cell from the inside out was no longer ordinary.
After tempering, his skin emitted a peculiar luster, like jade and steel.
At this moment, this skin could not be broken by a full-strength sword strike from even a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, and this was without any defense.
His Physical Body, needless to say, after tempering, every cell was perfectly integrated with his True Qi, ready to unleash the strongest power at any time, capable of easily overpowering Golden Core Stage Cultivators with just his Physical Body!
This was truly a Physical Body.
Su Yang eagerly looked inward at his Dantian.
He was delighted to find that the Golden Core in his Dantian was gone, replaced by a cute little girl of about two years old, sitting cross-legged in his Dantian, seemingly cultivating to consolidate her mind.
Her body possessed a boundless power beyond comprehension.
This power was so strong that Su Yang even felt he could easily crush 100 Golden Core Cultivators as if they were ants!
"This is my Nascent Soul! Damn it, after going through countless hardships, I finally completed the formation of my Nascent Soul! So strong!"
Su Yang laughed heartily.
However,
As he laughed, Su Yang's expression suddenly stiffened.
"Wait, why is my Nascent Soul a little girl???"
His excited expression instantly vanished.
What the hell was going on???
Didn't everyone say that a Nascent Soul was a miniature version of oneself??? He wasn't a girl when he was little!!!
How did he form a female Nascent Soul?!
Holy crap!!!
A million alpacas stampeded through Su Yang's mind, and a hundred thousand crows flew indifferently over his head.
Looking at the female Nascent Soul sitting cross-legged in his Dantian, Su Yang felt completely numb.
After a moment of calm.
Su Yang moved closer and observed her carefully.
She was very small, just a little girl of about two years old, very fair and cute.
Her appearance looked somewhat like... The more Su Yang looked, the deeper his frown became; the more he looked at her, the more he felt she resembled the woman who had entered his body from the divine sword.
What astonished Su Yang even more was that this female Nascent Soul he had condensed actually had her own consciousness!!!
Normally, a Nascent Soul formed would integrate with the Cultivator's own Divine Sense, an extension of their self-power and will, completely under their control.
But Su Yang found that this female Nascent Soul he had condensed was not like that.
He could feel that although there was a peculiar connection between him and her, she clearly had her own Divine Sense and will; she was like an existence completely independent of him.
"Did that woman from the divine sword possess me?!"
A terrifying thought flashed through Su Yang's mind.
But Su Yang immediately dismissed this possibility.
If he had truly been possessed, he wouldn't be able to so clearly realize that he had been possessed now.
More importantly, this female Nascent Soul was indeed formed by him through the method of forming a Nascent Soul, and some of his Divine Sense remained within her.
Therefore, there was an indescribable connection between them, and through this unique connection, Su Yang could feel that there was no trace of danger from this female Nascent Soul; instead, she exuded a friendly Aura.
"Hey, little one, who exactly are you?"
"Hey, hey, hey, can you wake up???"
Su Yang called out to her.
But the female Nascent Soul seemed to have just formed and was still trying to stabilize herself, so she did not respond to Su Yang's call.
"Damn it, what exactly is going on..."
Su Yang muttered.
The current situation was beyond his comprehension.
Seeing that she wouldn't wake up anytime soon, Su Yang simply withdrew his Divine Sense.
Slowly opening his eyes.
The first thing Su Yang saw was Bai Lingxi in front of him.
Due to the state they were both in, Bai Lingxi also sensed that Su Yang had finished and likewise opened her eyes to look.
Their gazes met in the water.
Su Yang held her and slowly ascended from the Heavenly Extreme Cold Spring into the air.
"Splash~~~"
Breaking out of the water.
The Spiritual Qi in the Heavenly Extreme Cold Spring had been completely absorbed by Su Yang in just these 50 days; the originally thick, viscous liquid had completely turned into clear water.
"You're finally finished..."
Bai Lingxi let out a great sigh of relief.
She had originally thought he would complete his Breakthrough in at most ten days to half a month, but she hadn't expected Su Yang's Breakthrough period to be so long.
A full fifty days; if it weren't for her Peak Late Spirit Transformation Stage physical constitution, she would have long since collapsed from exhaustion.
"It's over..."
Su Yang nodded.
"I have also kept my promise and helped you Breakthrough."
Bai Lingxi was about to get up, leaning on Su Yang's shoulder, when Su Yang's eyebrows twitched.
"Wait a moment, there's one last crucial step that hasn't been completed..."
"What?"
Bai Lingxi had just asked when she immediately, clearly, and truly felt what Su Yang was referring to.
Su Yang, having unlocked his Innate Fire Spirit Kidney, after a full fifty days of Breakthrough, was radiating intense heat, unstoppable.
Bai Lingxi didn't even have a chance to cry out before she collapsed into Su Yang's arms.
She had endured for a full fifty days.
At this moment, she finally couldn't hold on any longer.
Su Yang looked at Bai Lingxi, feeling a bit emotional.
A fifty-day Breakthrough period was truly terrifying, and Bai Lingxi could actually persist for him for so long; it was truly difficult for her.
Even though she was a member of the Demonic Path, since she had gone to such lengths, he would definitely help her Breakthrough after they returned.
Su Yang thought to himself.
After a long while.
Bai Lingxi regained consciousness.
Her face flushed like a peach blossom, she wanted to say something, but in the end, she just moved her lips and said nothing.
At this moment, the look in Bai Lingxi's eyes as she gazed at Su Yang contained some emotions she hadn't shown before; within the tenderness, there was even a faint sense of belonging.
"There's nothing else, is there...?"
Bai Lingxi asked softly.
She didn't know why, but when she spoke, she really wanted to pinch his face and tug his ears.
This guy, he was truly too much!
Seeing her display such a girlish expression, Su Yang smiled and nodded.
She still looked as pure as ever; in fact, after soaking in the Heavenly Extreme Cold Spring, a place of Innate extreme yin and cold, for a full fifty days, her Aura had become even more sacred.
Bai Lingxi did not avoid his gaze; although being looked at by him at this moment gave her a feeling of her Dao Heart fluttering, she still pretended to be very calm on the surface.
Bai Lingxi said, "You truly are a monster. You've just Broken Through to the Nascent Soul Stage, yet you give people the feeling that you're already preparing to enter the Soul Transformation Stage. The Profound Heaven Dao Sect really got lucky to have you as a Disciple."
Hearing this, Su Yang just gave a bitter smile, then curiously asked, "Sect Master Bai, let me ask you a question. Do you think it's possible for a Nascent Soul to be different from oneself when forming it?"
Bai Lingxi was stunned for a moment, not understanding the purpose of his question.
She replied with great certainty, "A Nascent Soul is a Cultivator's own power breaking down and then being rebuilt, meaning breaking the Golden Core to establish the Nascent Soul. It is also an additional extension of the Cultivator's Divine Sense and will. Everything is produced by self-power and self-will, so the Nascent Soul is naturally a part of oneself. It is absolutely impossible to condense a Nascent Soul that is different from oneself. What do you mean by asking this question? Is there something wrong with your Nascent Soul?"
Su Yang: ...It seems his Nascent Soul really did have a problem!
But of course, he couldn't admit this problem in front of Bai Lingxi.
He shrugged, feigning indifference, and said, "I just asked casually. You sit and rest for a bit, adjust your state. I have successfully Broken Through, so it's time for us to leave the Yellow Springs Desert and go back!"
"Mm..."
Bai Lingxi nodded and simply leaned on Su Yang to rest...
