284: Chapter 284 Yunling's Body Shaping

Houde Peak.

By the Chaos Azure Lotus Pool, in the Jade Lotus Pool area.

The pool water was clear as a mirror, reflecting the sky and clouds. Jade lotuses, flawless and moist, stood gracefully in the water, illuminating the entire pool with a warm glow.

Ling Hao brought Hall Master Di Yunling here.

Hall Master Di Yunling looked at the strange water, confusion in her eyes: "Revered Master, you called me here, is it for..."

Ling Hao pointed to the blooming jade lotuses, speaking concisely.

"This is the Jade Lotus Pool of the Chaos Azure Lotus Pool, specialized for the reshaping of the Physical Body. Go down; I will be your Protector."

"Reshaping... the Physical Body?!"

Hall Master Di Yunling was startled, then overwhelmed by joy.

She bowed deeply, gratefully: "Thank you, Sect Master, for the gift of rebirth!"

As she bowed, the collar of her simple purple-red dress opened slightly. Through the sheer fabric, her delicate collarbone and a hint of alluring cleavage flashed before Ling Hao's eyes.

Ling Hao's gaze tightened, certain. This enchantress was definitely seducing him.

Pity, she was still an energy construct.

"Go down quickly." Ling Hao's tone was calm, without a ripple.

Hall Master Di Yunling, hearing this, did not shy away. In front of Ling Hao, she raised her hands and slowly untied her dress.

The purple-red gauze skirt fell to the ground like flower petals. She moved with lotus steps, entering the pool. The warm water covered her ankles, then her calves...

Ling Hao stood by the bank, watching quietly.

The jade lotus petals in the pool opened slightly, and wisps of jade-colored brilliance gradually submerged Hall Master Di Yunling's body. Where it passed, her Physical Body solidified. The new skin appeared even more translucent and lustrous, as if carved from the finest mutton-fat jade.

Broad lotus leaves gently brushed against her long, straight legs, the smooth surface bringing a cool touch and leaving fine droplets that snaked down her skin.

A jade lotus bud hovered just above her flat abdomen. It bloomed, and the warm brilliance spread, enveloping her slender waist, supple spine, full breasts, and smooth nape.

Every inch of her skin was meticulously "carved" and "tempered" by the divine effect of the Jade Lotus Pool, revealing flawless luster and astonishing elasticity.

The entire process was sacred and... filled with unspeakable, inch-by-inch temptation.

When the brilliance faded, the pool water returned to calm.

Hall Master Di Yunling slowly rose from the water. Her newborn Physical Body was perfect, her skin whiter than snow, glowing with the warm luster of jade. Her figure was exquisite, possessing both the youthful uprightness of a girl and the mature, voluptuous charm of a woman.

Every curve seemed like the proudest masterpiece of heaven and earth, looking breathtaking against the reflection of the Jade Lotus Pool.

She walked ashore and stood before Ling Hao, smiling sweetly, her eyes dancing: "Sect Master, how do you find... this body?"

Ling Hao's gaze was steady, nodding in praise: "Very good."

He stepped forward, reached out, and pulled her warm, fragrant, still-damp body into his embrace. Feeling the astonishing elasticity and smoothness, his voice dropped with a playful tone.

"However, it still needs to be carefully inspected before I can be at ease."

Hall Master Di Yunling felt the heat and strength of the hand on her waist, and the hidden meaning in his words. She did not resist, leaning in closer, tilting her pretty face, and smiling bewitchingly: "If the Sect Master wants to inspect it personally, as a subordinate, I will naturally... cooperate fully."

A breeze blew, causing the lotus leaves by the pool to bend, their flexible stems outlining graceful arcs. The water droplets in the centers of the leaves swayed, as if about to spill over at any moment.

Ling Hao's palm wandered over her smooth spine, feeling the vibrant vitality and suppleness beneath her skin, his tone becoming a bit more serious.

"The Foundation of this reshaped Physical Body is extremely solid, with clear meridians and pure flesh and blood. It will greatly benefit your future Cultivation."

Hall Master Di Yunling trembled slightly, pressing her soft body closer to him, her breath like orchids, with a hint of coquettishness.

"For my future Cultivation... I will need the Sect Master to help guide me."

"Naturally."

Ling Hao agreed, his palm sliding to her slender waist, applying slight pressure, feeling the smoothness, and saying contentedly: "With the reshaping of your body, is the Origin characteristic of your Nine-Bend River Physique still fully preserved?"

A flash of surprise crossed Hall Master Di Yunling's eyes: "How does the Sect Master know about my Physique?"

Ling Hao pressed slightly harder, causing Hall Master Di Yunling to let out a soft cry, her waist involuntarily softening, and she embedded herself almost entirely in his arms.

"That's simple. Did you not know I possess a Magic Treasure specifically for exploration? Whether it is the concealment of spiritual mountains and fairy valleys, or the various characteristics of the human body, nothing can escape me."

"The water-vein aura within you, deep and winding like a Nine-Bend path, is something I can detect with just a little investigation."

Hall Master Di Yunling nodded in agreement: "The Sect Master's Magic Treasure... is indeed formidable."

Ling Hao looked up at the sun high in the sky, paused, and praised sincerely: "After the reshaping, your Nine-Bend River Physique should be even purer. The external Spiritual Qi will constantly undergo eighteen refinements, turning into pure spiritual liquid. Because of this, your Cultivation speed will far exceed those of the same rank. You are truly blessed by heaven."

Hall Master Di Yunling's cheeks gradually flushed red: "Thank you for the praise, Sect Master."

The wind picked up, and the lotus leaves across the entire Jade Lotus Pool swayed, the green waves rippling and the water shimmering, as if the entire pool was gently rising and falling.

Time passed, and the afterglow of the sunset dyed the horizon red, stretching the shadows of the two by the Jade Lotus Pool and plating them in a warm, ambiguous golden edge.

The pool water reflected the sunset, the lotus shadows, and the silhouettes of the two, gorgeous and hazy.

An unknown water bird was startled into flight, its wings grazing the water, splashing droplets that happened to land on a blooming jade lotus.

Crystalline droplets scattered, wetting the petals, and one or two landed on Hall Master Di Yunling's smooth calves by the pool, bringing a hint of coolness.

"Ah!"

Startled by the coolness, Hall Master Di Yunling let out a short, light cry, and collapsed softly into Ling Hao's arms.

Ling Hao held her steadily, looking down at her languid appearance, and asked a rhetorical question: "Stood for too long, are your legs weak?"

Hall Master Di Yunling buried her face in his chest, as if she had exhausted all her strength.

"Perhaps... the newborn body is not quite used to it yet..."

Ling Hao looked at the woman in his arms, her eyes dancing with charm, and straightened her body, his tone steady.

"Then go back, rest well, and adapt slowly."

Hall Master Di Yunling softly said "Mm," a sound so soft it could drip water. She raised her shimmering eyes, looked deeply at Ling Hao, her eyes filled with an intensity of longing that could not be melted away.

She turned, her delicate hand waving, and a brand new, elegant dress instantly covered her jade body. She bowed to Ling Hao again.

"Yunling takes her leave."

With that, she swayed away, dancing off into the sunset.

Ling Hao watched the slender figure blend into the sunset and gradually blur. Recalling the ultimate sensation in his palm just now and the feeling of the warm, fragrant jade in his arms, he smacked his lips, a long-lingering smile curling his lips.

"Nine-Bend River Physique, not bad! Very not bad!"

He muttered to himself, thoroughly satisfied. Just as he was about to turn and leave, remembering that today's "Sect daily routine" had not yet been done.

"Revered Master! Revered Master! I finally found you!"

A crisp voice approached from afar. Xia Yingying lifted her light water-green skirt and landed before Ling Hao.

She panted slightly, her almond eyes full of excitement.

"Revered Master! Yingying... Yingying feels the time has come, it seems... it seems I am about to undergo the Soul Transformation Tribulation!"

Ling Hao looked at his young disciple and immediately said: "Since that is the case, there is no time to lose. Revered Master will take you to the Tribulation Platform..."

Before he could finish, Xia Yingying suddenly reached out her small hand and grabbed Ling Hao's sleeve tightly. She tilted her little face up, her almond eyes shining shockingly bright, filled with a bold light.

"Revered Master, Yingying... Yingying doesn't want to go to the Tribulation Platform yet..."

?

Ling Hao was slightly stunned, not reacting for a moment: "What do you want?"

Xia Yingying looked directly into Ling Hao's eyes and stammered:

"It's just... Yingying wants that kind of... uncontrollable... feeling of Breakthrough... like flying..."

Breakthrough feeling, like flying? Isn't this...

Ling Hao was torn between laughter and tears. She was about to have a Breakthrough, and she still wanted this? This girl... really was...

Ling Hao's heart was a mix of emotions.

In the past, it could be considered that others incited her, but now...

Sigh, his little disciple Yingying, who only knew how to play the zither and whose heart was pure... was gone forever.
