Chapter 2662: Chapter 2661: The Way of Man and Woman
In this dark and deep cave, an ancient and mysterious aura quietly pervades, the soul of the Ancient Sovereign Witch slowly manifested from Lin Dong’s Dragon Ring.
Though her figure was ethereal, it exuded an undeniable majesty.
Yun Ruoxian witnessed this, a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, but she quickly recovered her composure, her gaze full of curiosity and reverence for the unknown.
Seeing this, Lin Dong hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and softly introduced to Yun Ruoxian, "Ruoxian, this is the soul of the Senior Sovereign Witch from ancient times. She temporarily resides within my Dragon Ring and possesses formidable divine soul power. On our journey ahead, she will be our most steadfast support."
The Soul of the Sovereign Witch smiled slightly, as if traversing through a thousand years, carrying a hint of warmth.
She nodded gently to Yun Ruoxian, "Hello, little girl, it seems Lin Dong has found another beautiful confidante."
Hearing this, Yun Ruoxian’s cheeks flushed, hastily clasping her hands in greeting, her voice tinged with shyness and respect: "This junior, Yun Ruoxian, greets the senior."
The Soul of the Sovereign Witch’s gaze flowed over Yun Ruoxian, seemingly seeing through her constitution, and she couldn’t help but sigh lightly: "An excellent Innate Furnace Body, such a constitution was extremely rare in ancient times, enough to make countless cultivators covet it."
Upon hearing this, Yun Ruoxian’s complexion slightly changed. She hadn’t anticipated her constitution being so special, nor that it would be discerned by the Ancient Sovereign Witch with just a glance.
Although her heart was stirred, her appearance remained calm, though her shyness deepened further.
"Senior’s insight is indeed sharp, this junior is impressed."
Seeing this, the Soul of the Sovereign Witch showed a hint of amusement in her eyes, then shifted the topic to Lin Dong: "Kid, you should know, having such a partner is a blessing. Perhaps you might consider practicing a dual cultivation technique, which would benefit you both."
Lin Dong, upon hearing this, felt somewhat awkward. He hadn’t expected the Sovereign Witch to suddenly bring up this matter, especially as Yun Ruoxian was not his partner.
He quickly waved his hand, "Senior Sovereign Witch, this... this seems a bit inappropriate. Ruoxian is not my partner; there is nothing between us."
The Sovereign Witch chuckled lightly, giving Lin Dong a meaningful expression, and then continued:
"The dual cultivation technique is not the heretical evil that the world imagines. It is divided into many types; there’s the yin gathering and yang nourishing evil technique, naturally there’s also the complementary and cooperative righteous path. In ancient times, many Great Ability sages practiced complementary methods with their Dao companions, rapidly progressing in cultivation with extraordinary achievements."
With this, the Sovereign Witch specifically explained the dual cultivation technique.
"Among the dual cultivation techniques, the yin gathering technique is probably what you people understand as such. This dual cultivation technique, indeed, may be classified as evil, where one party replenishes themselves using the other party."
"If male, it replenishes yang by gathering yin from females; if female, it replenishes yin by gathering yang from males. This method harms the other party, with severe consequences potentially leading to direct death."
"The Fox Clan is representative of this type; such dual cultivation techniques are not tolerated by the righteous path."
"However, there is another dual cultivation method, a complementary method, which even some ancient Great Ability sages held in high regard. This complementary method involves dual cultivation for male and female mutual complement, enhancing together."
"In ancient times, many sages and Great Abilities practiced this dual cultivation method with their Dao companions, reaping numerous benefits."
By the tone of the Sovereign Witch, she seemed to quite admire this method.
Lin Dong felt somewhat awkward, and Yun Ruoxian even more so, her face blushing red.
And what the Sovereign Witch said next made Yun Ruoxian even more bashful.
The Sovereign Witch’s soul said, "Kid, if you and this Yun Ruoxian cultivate a genuine dual cultivation method, it will tremendously help both of you. Especially you, kid, passing through the bottlenecks of Heavenly Realm Martial Artists will be a piece of cake."
Saying this, the Sovereign Witch’s eyes roamed between Yun Ruoxian and Lin Dong, seemingly assessing their compatibility, then spoke with profound implication:
"If you two can find a suitable dual cultivation method, you will surely complement each other and surpass the Heavenly Realm bottleneck soon."
Upon hearing this, Yun Ruoxian’s cheeks turned as red as the evening sky, and she sneaked a glance at Lin Dong.
Seeing Lin Dong also looking embarrassed, he quickly opened his mouth to change the topic.
He gently exhaled a breath, smoothing the delicate ripple in his mind regarding the "dual cultivation" topic, and turned his attention to a more pressing issue.
His gaze was bright, directly meeting the ethereal yet majestic figure of the Sovereign Witch, sincerely asking: "Senior Sovereign Witch, since you previously mentioned seeming to know something about this place, could you reveal a little to us? After all, understanding where we are is crucial for our actions ahead."
Hearing this, the Sovereign Witch’s eyes, those seemingly able to pierce through time and space, slightly squinted, as if recalling something, or weighing the degree of information to reveal.
After a moment, she gently shook her head, her voice carrying a hint of helplessness and caution: "Lin Dong, I naturally understand your thoughts. However, the secrets of this place are of no small matter. Though I have discerned some things, I dare not easily conclude."
"Right now, I cannot be one hundred percent certain that this is the place I think it might be. Therefore, to avoid misleading you, and for your own safety, I feel it best to wait for the right opportunity before detailing the true origin of this space."
Saying this, the Soul of the Sovereign Witch seemed to become more substantial, her eyes presumably capable of seeing into hearts.
She paused, seemingly observing Lin Dong’s reaction, then continued: "You need not worry excessively; as long as we act cautiously, we will naturally find answers. Moreover, sometimes the unknown is also a challenge and an opportunity. It can stimulate your potential, allowing you to grow continually through adversity."
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong understood the Sovereign Witch’s concerns and effort.
He nodded in agreement: "The words of Senior Sovereign Witch are indeed reasonable."
Lin Dong then, wisely, did not continue probing, but instead turned to retrieve a series of precious items from the Dragon Ring Space.
First, he handed Yun Ruoxian a divine talisman that shimmered with a faint glow and explained: "Ruoxian, this is the ’Life-Saving Talisman’ which automatically activates without inner Qi. Should you face danger, it will automatically conjure strong protective Qi, ensuring your safety. In this unknown space, having an extra assurance is always good."
Upon receiving the talisman, Yun Ruoxian’s eyes were filled with gratitude and delight. She gently nodded, storing the precious gift close to her.
Next, Lin Dong took out a series of Dan medicines, including divine healing medicines and vitality restoration energy pills. He carefully explained:
"These Dan medicines, though unable to directly increase our inner Qi, play a crucial role when injured or physically fatigued. As for those like the Deadwood Dan, they are useless here, as they cannot generate inner Qi."
Finishing his explanation, Lin Dong also produced a large number of herbs. These herbs, vivid in color and fragrant, were evidently extremely precious.
He gazed into the distance, filled with gratitude: "These herbs, I plan to give to the clan chief and tribesmen who took us in when we were most helpless. This favor we must not forget."
Hearing this, Yun Ruoxian nodded in agreement.
She found herself increasingly admiring and cherishing Lin Dong.
Whether it was his martial talent, martial strength, conduct, or character, she was profoundly impressed by him.
"Truly a mythical figure of ten thousand years, someone like him, should he ascend to the pinnacle of the Martial Arts World, it would be a blessing for the entire Martial Arts World and the history of martial arts," Yun Ruoxian mused internally as she gazed at Lin Dong.
Her face suddenly flushed red, recalling the Sovereign Witch’s earlier words about ’dual cultivation.’
She realized she did not seem to oppose what had just been said.
If she could truly become Dao companions with Lin Dong, mutually dual cultivating, yin and yang complementing, it might not be such a bad thing.
