Chapter 26 The Master's Wife Has Arrived

But at that moment, something unexpected happened!

The originally gentle and flowing spiritual energy within Qin Ruoxue's body suddenly became turbulent, and an extremely yin and cold aura erupted from the depths of her dantian!

At the same time, her fair skin glowed with a strange pale blue sheen.

Her body temperature dropped rapidly, and fine ice crystals began to condense in the hot spring water beneath her, centered on her!

"This is... the Northern Dark Ice Soul Body?!" Zhou Tian was shocked.

He had seen records in the sect's ancient books that the Northern Darkness Ice Soul Body was one of the special innate physiques.

Those who possess this body have spiritual power with an inherent cold attribute, making it twice as effective to cultivate ice and water-based techniques.

However, they are prone to outbursts when subjected to intense emotional fluctuations.

Even when facing death, it can easily explode.

Qin Ruoxue had clearly never truly awakened her physical constitution, and it's even possible that the injury to her soul suppressed its manifestation.

At this moment, stimulated by Zhou Tian, ​​it was unexpectedly triggered!

"Cold...so cold..."

Qin Ruoxue was in a daze, her whole body was trembling, and even a thin layer of frost had formed on her skin.

"If it were before, perhaps I wouldn't have been able to do it."

"But now..."

Zhou Tian made a decisive move, fully activating the Dragon Essence and Pure Yang Sword Essence!

The supremely yang and powerful dragon essence and pure yang sword intent surged into Qin Ruoxue's meridians, forcibly guiding the rampaging yin energy.

Ice and fire intertwined, collided, and merged within her.

"what!"

Qin Ruoxue tilted her head back and let out a long moan that was both painful and strangely exhilarating.

In this extreme confrontation and fusion, the pores all over her body suddenly opened—

"laugh!"

It was neither sweat nor ordinary moisture.

A clear, light blue water arrow, imbued with pure spiritual energy, shot out from her lower abdomen, specifically from her dantian.

It shot straight to the top of the cave, hitting the ice dome and splashing out a cloud of spiritual mist!

Then came the second, the third...

Qin Ruoxue seemed to transform into a spring of spiritual energy that had been suppressed for many years.

Under the "clearing" effect of the supreme Yang energy, the excess Yin spiritual energy accumulated in the body, mixed with impurities, surged out in this astonishing way!

With each water arrow she fired, the chill within her body lessened, her spiritual power became purer, and her aura grew stronger!

This was the first time Zhou Tian had encountered such a situation. He was surprised, but he kept his composure and guided the process of releasing his emotions.

He could sense that as the Xuan Yin Qi erupted and the pure Yang power neutralized it, Qin Ruoxue's soul injury was healing at a visible speed, and her cultivation bottleneck was teetering on the brink of collapse.

Inside the cave, spiritual mist filled the air, and the sound of flowing water mingled with Qin Ruoxue's intermittent sobs.

After an unknown amount of time, everything returned to calm.

Qin Ruoxue was in Zhou Tian's arms, her whole body soaked, her long hair sticky and clinging to her flushed cheeks and neck.

The pale blue glow around her had subsided, her body temperature had returned to normal, and she was even more radiant than before.

Most notably, her face, which had been slightly pale from the pain, now had a healthy rosy glow, and although her eyes were tired, they were clear and bright, no longer showing the lingering gloom of the past.

Within her body, the barrier of the mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm had already silently shattered.

The spiritual energy surged like a river, breaking through all obstacles until it finally came to a stop at the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage!

Zhou Tian also benefited greatly from this extremely special dual cultivation.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully become Daoist partners with Qin Ruoxue!]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the special term: Heroic Aura!]

[Heroic Aura: Each of the host's Dao Companions will receive a 10% boost to the host's base combat power (the aura effect is stackable). Currently active Dao Companions: 5, Total Boost: 50%. Note: This boost only applies to Dao Companions recognized by the host.]

[Ding! Host's cultivation has broken through to the Golden Core stage!]

[Ding! Dragon Essence has reached the third stage of growth, gaining a new ability: Dragon's Imperial Guest (Active): The lower the host's lifespan, the higher the damage dealt.]

Golden Elixir!

Within his dantian, the purplish-gold golden pill, wreathed in faint dragon patterns and rosy light, slowly rotated.

With each rotation, it exhales a massive amount of pure spiritual energy, filling its limbs and bones with a sense of power that is completely different from the Foundation Establishment stage!

Zhou Tian felt a surge of joy.

In this world of cultivation, reaching the Golden Core stage is truly considered entering the inner sanctum.

They had a basic grasp of the rules and the foundation for cultivating supernatural powers.

Not to mention the unexpected [Heroic Aura], which is practically the ultimate buff for a harem team!

The more wives he has, the more terrifying the team's combat power bonus becomes. This is simply a divine skill tailor-made for him!

Qin Ruoxue, who was in his arms, slowly came to her senses.

She immediately looked at herself, and when she felt the surging late-stage Foundation Establishment peak spiritual power, as well as the long-lost sense of ease and wholeness in her soul, she was struck dumb as if by lightning.

"My...my cultivation level..."

She murmured to herself, tears welling up again.

But this time, it was no longer humiliation or despair, but an unbelievable surprise and a tremendous shock of surviving a catastrophe.

She raised her head and looked at Zhou Tian, ​​who was so close to her.

This man, this "useless" junior brother she once looked down upon, actually did it.

Not only did it greatly increase his cultivation level, but it also completely activated his Northern Darkness Ice Soul Body!
