Chapter 289: Chapter 289: The Return of the Soul Fusion and Divine Lodging Technique, and Su Yingxue’s Strength Surges
Jing University, S-Class dormitory area.
After letting Mu Chen into her dorm, Su Yingxue glanced left and right. Confirming no one had seen them, she immediately shut the door.
“Speak. Who are you? And how do you plan to help me?”
Su Yingxue turned around and spoke coolly, her tone wary.
Mu Chen pulled back his hood, his gaze fixed on Su Yingxue, his voice sinister.
“Who I am isn’t important. What’s important is that, just like you, I want that Gu Yuexi dead!”
“Right?”
Hearing this, Su Yingxue frowned slightly.
’This person is one of Gu Yuexi’s enemies?’
’Although I hate Gu Yuexi, I don’t want her dead.’
Her subconscious warned her that the person before her was dangerous… Just as she was about to ask Mu Chen to leave, he spoke again.
“I have a Secret Technique called the [Soul Fusion and Divine Lodging Technique]. I can transfer my entire life’s accumulation of Mental Power to you, allowing your strength to take a massive leap forward in a short time!”
“Then, it will be a simple matter for you to teach her a lesson!”
Su Yingxue’s heart jolted at his words.
’Transferring one’s entire life’s Mental Power to another? What kind of Secret Technique is this? Even if it’s possible, the user would surely have to pay a terrible price!’
’Just what kind of deep-seated hatred does this man have for Gu Yuexi?’
But she was more concerned with whether this Secret Technique was actually real and effective.
“What are your conditions?”
Su Yingxue hesitated for a moment before speaking coolly. She knew full well there was no such thing as a free lunch.
A savage smile spread across Mu Chen’s face, his eyes filled with venomous hatred.
“My condition… is a single one!”
“After you defeat her, I want you… to cripple her completely!”
“Turn her into a piece of trash who can never cultivate again! I want her to taste what it’s like to fall from the clouds into the mud!”
Hearing this demand, Su Yingxue’s heart sank.
’Crippling someone’s Cultivation… what a vicious thing to do!’
’Though she was proud, she, Su Yingxue, still possessed the moral bottom line of someone from a noble and righteous background. Her first instinct was to refuse.’
But…
Then she thought of the humiliation Gu Yuexi had inflicted on her today. She thought of the posts on the campus forums questioning her title as the “Future Empress.” She thought of how Gu Yuexi’s very existence now posed a grave threat to her leading position at Jing University, and even among the entire younger generation of the Capital City…
The pride and indignation in her heart began to grow like weeds running wild.
As if seeing through her hesitation, Mu Chen whispered in her ear like a devil:
“What are you still hesitating for? Do you want to be pinned under her forever, reduced to her foil?”
“That woman’s appearance has already stolen everything that should have been yours! Your halo, your glory, your title as the ’Future Empress’!”
“This is your only chance! Use absolute power to ruthlessly crush her under your heel and show everyone who the true number one at Jing University is!”
Every word from Mu Chen was like a heavy hammer, pounding relentlessly on Su Yingxue’s most fragile nerves.
Finally, a flicker of struggle passed through Su Yingxue’s eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.
She grit her teeth and said coldly:
“Fine, I agree!”
’A glint flashed in her eyes. She already had her own plan.’
’All I have to do is defeat Gu Yuexi. As for whether or not I cripple her Cultivation, that’ll be my decision to make when the time comes.’
’First, let’s see if this so-called Secret Technique of his is even real!’
…
The two of them entered the dorm’s Cultivation Chamber.
“Let’s begin.” Su Yingxue sat down cross-legged, already prepared.
Mu Chen looked at the proud “Future Empress” before him. For a fleeting moment, he saw her as Gu Yuexi.
An almost imperceptible glint of… lecherous and vengeful desire flashed in his eyes.
He licked his lips and said:
“This Secret Technique requires skin-to-skin contact to achieve the best effect. You… should take off your clothes.”
SLAP!!!
Before his words had even faded, a crisp, loud slap landed squarely on Mu Chen’s face!
Su Yingxue shot to her feet, her beautiful face like ice, her eyes flashing with cold, murderous intent.
“Are you looking to die?”
“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Get rid of those filthy thoughts. You’re not worthy.”
She looked down at Mu Chen, his cheek now red and swollen, her tone dripping with undisguised contempt and warning.
Mu Chen clutched his face, his eyes instantly welling with endless humiliation and resentment.
’Fine! Fine, you Su Yingxue!’
’Even you dare to treat me like this!’
He roared madly in his heart, but for the sake of his grand plan for revenge, he could only force down his rage and squeeze out a smile uglier than a grimace.
“Yes… I was being presumptuous, Su. Let’s begin.”
Su Yingxue snorted coldly and sat back down.
Mu Chen took a deep breath and began to activate the Soul Fusion and Divine Lodging Technique.
The next moment, a vast and pure stream of Mental Power began to pour endlessly into Su Yingxue’s body!
Inside the Cultivation Chamber, Su Yingxue’s aura began to climb wildly at a visible rate…
…
「Meanwhile.」
Inside Gu Yuexi’s dorm.
As Chu Sheng drained the last of the Realm Power from the Void Stone, the faintly glowing rock lost all its fluctuations, becoming a pure, transparent Crystal Stone that resembled a glass marble.
Chu Sheng looked at the stone before him, quite curious.
’The Realm it contained is gone, but its special function of storing “Realm Power” is still there.’
’Based on this alone, this Void Stone is probably priceless.’
’I’ll hold onto it for now. It might come in handy later.’
Chu Sheng casually tossed it into his Lifebound Space, then took out a Jade Bottle containing Emperor Level Demon Beast Essence Blood!
’This is good stuff too. Time to keep absorbing!’
Chu Sheng was also quite curious. After his seventh complete evolution, his physique should have improved considerably, meaning the amount of Qi Blood he could digest at once ought to have increased significantly.
’Plus, the God-devouring Needle got an upgrade.’
’I wonder how much I can absorb in one go.’
As Chu Sheng inserted his proboscis into the Essence Blood, a torrential wave of Qi Blood Energy instantly began pouring madly into his body through the God-devouring Needle!
This drop of Emperor Realm Essence Blood was truly worthy of coming from an Emperor Realm Powerhouse. It contained far more potent Qi Blood Energy than all the King-level Essence Blood he had previously absorbed!
[DING! Host has absorbed 10,000 Qi Blood. Now digesting. You will gain 500 Evolution Points after digestion!]
[Current Qi Blood Value: 120,900]
[DING! Detected a small amount of Wood Realm. Now absorbing!]
[DING! Absorbed 1,000 Wood Realm Comprehension. Your Wood Realm Comprehension has increased from 3,800 to 4,800. Current Wood Realm Comprehension: Great Success 4,800/5,000]
’Whoa, I absorbed 10,000 in one go!’
Chu Sheng felt bloated all over, startling even himself!
’Looks like the biggest upgrade from the last evolution was definitely the God-devouring Needle. Both its absorption efficiency and capacity have seen a qualitative leap!’
Of course,
being able to absorb 10,000 Qi Blood was also thanks to the Emperor Realm Essence Blood itself.
’This single drop of Emperor Realm Essence Blood probably contains ten, or even dozens of times, the Qi Blood Power of King-level Essence Blood!’
’The Realm Power it contained was much greater, too!’
’Now, my Wood Realm, Earth Realm, and Water Realm are all just a little bit away from reaching the Perfection Realm! Great Perfection isn’t far off, either!’
’Sweet!’
Chu Sheng let out a contented burp, ready to call it a day and go to sleep.
Just then, with a flicker of his Divine Thought, he once again scanned the two Storage Rings he had plundered earlier.
Huh?
He suddenly noticed what looked like an inconspicuous little gadget tucked away in the corner of one of the rings.
’I was so focused on finding things to absorb before that I forgot about this.’
With a thought, he took the item out.
He took it out and saw it was an exquisitely crafted Bronze Medal, engraved with five brightly shining stars.
’What’s this?’
’It seems to be from the Military Department’s ring, right?’
Chu Sheng toyed with it for a moment. After confirming he couldn’t absorb anything from it, he lost interest and casually tossed it into his Lifebound Space.
