Chapter 540: Chapter 540: Senior Sister, You Are Proficient in Dual Cultivation, So I Must Ask for a Lesson

A Divine Sky Grotto Heaven Embryo!

This was nothing like the newly-formed, fragile "embryonic buds" of other Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

The moment Xu Yunfan’s "seed" appeared, a heavy, desolate, and terrifying pressure—like a Celestial Fall, the earth collapsing, a calamity of eons descending—brutally crushed down on Liuu Yunhua.

This was not a physical weight, but a force from a higher plane, a pressure born from a Dao Foundation that defied all conventions.

Space within a foot of Xu Yunfan twisted violently, collapsing inward. The ambient Primordial Qi in the air was instantly drained, forming an absolute vacuum that sealed the area.

The tyrannical, destructive will of the Thunderbolt blended perfectly with this nascent restrictive force, creating an invisible shackle.

Liuu Yunhua felt as if she wasn’t facing a Cultivator of the same level, but an Ancient Divine Mountain, brimming with endless Thunderbolt, that was collapsing right on top of her.

The air around her became like amber forged from Ten Thousand Years Profound Ice.

Liuu Yunhua was horrified. The Magical Power she had been rapidly circulating, preparing to either flee or counterattack, slammed into an indestructible dam. It instantly became sluggish, even showing faint signs of collapsing and causing a backlash.

Her prized Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment Magical Power, before the pure aura of Law radiating from his Grotto Heaven Embryo, was as fragile as a candle in a gale. It was completely suppressed within her body, making it incredibly difficult to mobilize even a single trace.

’A Grotto Heaven?! No! How could a Middle Stage cultivator possibly have a Grotto Heaven Embryo of this caliber?! And one so condensed and vast?!’

Liuu Yunhua screamed silently in her heart. Her beautiful face twisted instantly, turning deathly pale from the absolute terror and suffocating pressure.

To be fair, she had toiled to reach Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment and begin forming her Grotto Heaven Embryo. Even after two lifetimes, she had barely managed to grasp the basics.

And now you were telling her that this was a Grotto Heaven Embryo condensed by a Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

It wasn’t as if she were inexperienced.

The Grotto Heaven Embryos condensed by many Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Daoist Masters probably couldn’t compare to Xu Yunfan’s.

This was a Grotto Heaven Embryo on par with a Foundation Establishment Perfection, at the Great Daoist Master Level!

She wanted to shout a question, but her throat could only manage a weak, "GHK... GHK..." sound.

She tried to activate a life-saving Magical Treasure or Secret Technique, but her Divine Sense felt frozen. Her connection to her Magical Artifacts and Magical Power was brutally severed by a higher-order force.

She could even feel her Hundred Desires Magical Power, painstakingly cultivated over many years, letting out an overwhelmed wail under the aura of this Grotto Heaven Embryo woven from Thunderbolt and Profound Vault. It was rapidly melting away like snow.

True Yang Overcomes Extreme Yin; this was the law of heaven.

’Run!’

’I have to run!’

This was the only thought left in Liuu Yunhua’s mind.

A desperate will to survive erupted in her eyes. She frantically pushed her Divine Thought, trying to forcefully burn her Essence Blood to execute a Blood Escape Secret Technique.

To her despair, however, no matter how desperately she tried to muster her strength, she couldn’t move a single shred of the Magical Power in her body.

"Trying to run? Too late."

Xu Yunfan’s voice, cold and devoid of emotion, seemed to descend from the nine heavens, yet also echoed directly in the depths of her Divine Soul.

There are gaps even between those in the Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment.

Sometimes, the gap between two people is greater than the gap between a person and a pig.

He extended a hand, splayed his five fingers, and pressed down on Liuu Yunhua from a distance.

To avoid attracting attention, this palm strike came with no special light effects, no earth-shattering roar.

Throughout the entire suppression, not a single excess trace of Magical Power aura was revealed, demonstrating the terrifying degree of Xu Yunfan’s fine control over his Magic and Magical Power.

Even a veteran Foundation Establishment Daoist Master like Liuu Yunhua found it inconceivable. Under Xu Yunfan’s control, she felt like a bug trapped in amber.

There was no escape.

The crazed light in her eyes froze instantly. The Essence Blood she had just begun to surge through her body was slapped back by an invisible wall, its power sealed tightly within, unable to detonate.

Xu Yunfan’s palm press seemed casual, but it was an extension of his entire Grotto Heaven Embryo’s will, carrying the crushing force of a whole world.

THUD!

The endlessly charming Liuu Yunhua, the Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment Daoist Master of Hundred Desires Peak who intended to use others for her cultivation, had no room to struggle. As if all her bones had been removed, or as if she had been brutally slammed to the ground by an invisible force, her knees buckled, and she fell straight to the ground, kneeling.

Her knees smashed into the hard rock and soil with a dull thud.

The Magical Power in her body was completely locked down; her meridians felt as if they were filled with lead.

The immense pressure of the Grotto Heaven made it impossible for her to even lift a finger. She could only remain kneeling, her face as pale as gold leaf, her eyes vacant and filled with immense, uncomprehending terror.

The seductive charm she took so much pride in was utterly crushed.

In front of her, the immobilized Pu Yu’s face was also a mask of endless terror. Xu Yunfan’s palm strike hadn’t avoided her, and though she wasn’t the main target, just being grazed by its power made her clearly feel the helpless fear of an ant facing a natural disaster.

Xu Yunfan slowly retracted his hand. A faint trace of the vibration from activating his Grotto Heaven Embryo still lingered on his fingertips.

The natural, open smile on his face was long gone, replaced by a profound calm and a barely perceptible trace of coldness.

Though he appeared this way on the surface, Xu Yunfan inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.

’Thank goodness the flex was a success.’

Generally, once Foundation Establishment Cultivators condense a Grotto Heaven Embryo, they treat it as their most precious treasure. Fearing outside interference, they dare not reveal the slightest hint of it, at most activating the Grotto Heaven to empower themselves.

After all, if the Grotto Heaven were damaged in the slightest, the cost to repair it would be unimaginably high.

Who would be like Xu Yunfan, who, relying on the fact that his Attribute Panel had refined his Grotto Heaven Embryo to be even harder than Divine Iron, would just toss it out to crush people?

If anyone else saw this, they would definitely curse Xu Yunfan for his reckless waste of a priceless treasure.

He walked over to the kneeling Liuu Yunhua and looked down at her.

However, Xu Yunfan was also well aware that this method was best used for crushing those weaker than him. If he encountered an expert on his own level, it was better to keep the Grotto Heaven Embryo tucked away.

Liuu Yunhua struggled to raise her head, wanting to get a clear look at this Grotto Heaven that completely defied her understanding. But the terrifying pressure prevented her from mustering even the strength to look up. She could only humiliatingly feel that cold gaze land on her back, a gaze that unabashedly, gradually moved downwards.

Her neck, her chest, her lower body...

Just as Liuu Yunhua was about to force a seductive smile, Xu Yunfan slowly began to speak.

"Now."

Xu Yunfan spoke calmly. His voice wasn’t loud, but it clearly reached the ears of both Liuu Yunhua and Liuu Hanyan.

"We can have a nice, calm chat.

We can talk about this Sunken Star Ancient Sword, talk about the story behind it, and talk about..."

He paused for a moment, a hint of mockery creeping into his tone.

"...the so-called ’opportunity’ you wanted to get from me. Senior Sister, it seems our roles as Human Cauldrons are about to be swapped."

Xu Yunfan’s tone shifted as his gaze fell back on Liuu Yunhua, a hint of a smile in his eyes.

"Senior Sister, you’re an expert in the great Dao of Dual Cultivation. As it happens, I, your Junior Brother, also have some humble insights into how to strip and purify the mark of a Human Cauldron. Why don’t we take this opportunity to have a deep and frank exchange?"
