Chapter 134: Chapter 133: Murong Wudie

 

“According to the records, Murong Wudie was a low-level Ashura. Unlike other races, the Ashura race has their distinct traits. The males are plain and weaker and the females are exceedingly beautiful and stronger.

“Regardless, their cultivation talent is non-existent but they get stronger with war and battles. Ancestor Murong Wudie only became well-known after the better half of his life.

“From then he created one surprise after another. He became a cultivator. Although his cultivation speed was slow, his strength still left everyone awed.

“There were some particularities though. This is something I read from our Matriarch’s note, Murong Wudie seemed to do many things he didn’t want to.

“Such as how Ashura never cared about anything other than war and battle, he wasn’t any different. Yet, he mastered many cultivation professions. Sometimes saved someone unknown and did things that totally made no sense.

“But he never walked away from his true path. In his life what he advocated mostly was strength and war.”

Shen blankly listened to Xing Yu’s description but he felt stumped at the first sentence.

Murong Wudie was an Ashura? He became more confused. At first, he thought the Absolute Strengthening Technique was made by Murong Wudie but as Xing Yu continued on he didn’t find it feasible.

For the better half of Murong Wudie’s life, he didn’t even touch cultivation techniques. And if someone said one enlightenment was enough to remove the racial disadvantage and make an average Ashura talented in cultivation, then he might as well slave himself to gain another enlightenment.

Besides, the odd behaviors of Murong Wudie left him perplexed. As an avid fantasy reader he instantly thought of something.

It’s almost... It’s almost like system missions...

Indeed, one enlightenment could never give him such a big change. But if he had a system that could give him compensation for completing missions that might be an entirely different thing!

Still, this was just one of his conjectures but enough to turn Shen’s stomach green with envy. A system... as a golden finger he could think of nothing better than a system!

Noticing Tian Shen’s expression Xing Yu paused. Only when Shen turned to her did she continue.

“Since you got some ideas I’ll continue with the Dual Cultivation Technique. Ashura race doesn’t rely on cultivation so they don’t have the concept of companion either. It’s just an interpretation from our side but Absolute Duo Technique was most likely created only for the practitioner’s benefit. But as it was based on the Spirit Palace’s cultivation technique it still provides some minimum benefits to the other party. As long as your partner’s strength is greater your cultivation will soar at breakneck speed.

“However, later we found out it’s not really compatible with females, making it almost impossible for our race. Although it gives the least amount of benefits to your companions I don’t see anything bad about it.”

Provide the least amount of benefits to my partners? I think it was anything but small. Well, it's true my strength is above everyone other than Yu Ruyan. Hmm, still, I won’t go as far as to say the benefits are minimal. What I like most is that I don’t have to focus on it and it automatically circulates, wait, that’s not the problem here!! Shen let his thoughts wander but soon got control of it.

“That, I don’t have any problem with but I think it extracted something from Ruyan’s body.” Tian Shen was ready to expose Yu Ruyan’s Divine Body. He had to understand what was happening.

“Extract something? I don’t recall anything related. What exactly is it?” Even Xing Yu looked confused.

“If I could figure it out I wouldn’t have been so troubled. Though I think I know its origin...” Shen described the green aura in his spirit sea.

Xing Yu frowned and maintained silence for several minutes, “Why Lady Ruyan only? What about your other women?”

“I have thought of two possible reasons.

“First, Ruyan was my first. Maybe it was related to my vital yang and her vital yin. But her vital Yin has no relation to this, I think. As for the second, it’s related to her Divine Body.” Shen waited for her to question about Divine Body and explain what he knew, which was basically nothing. He only knew they were Divine Bodies and nothing else. 

“Huh? Lady Ruyan only has empty Divine Jade Vessel. Her Jade Essence is empty...?” Xing Yu came to an abrupt thought and suddenly went wide-eyed. “Her Jade Essence was completely extracted!”

Shen had color drained out of his face. Whatever Jade Essence and Divine Vessel meant, he confirmed that something was indeed forced out of Yu Ruyan and it obviously didn’t sound common or good.

Xing Yu looked thoughtful for a moment before parting her soft lips, “This reminds me of a rumor I heard. The Amorous Dream Spirit Palace Master declared war against Ancestor Murong Wudie for creating a wicked technique based on their commonly spread Spirit Palace Technique.

“Though it was only a rumor, it left an impression on me since Amorous Dream Spirit Palace never participated in any war or disputes among mortals or cultivators. Now it looks like it truly happened.”

“Err... you have mentioned it before but what is this Amorous Dream Spirit Palace?”

“The Amorous Dream Spirit Palace is... was, one of the oldest and peculiar forces of the Twelve Continental Alliance. They maintained a single inheritance system and there could only be one master in the Spirit Palace without any Prime Disciple. Everyone else is to be the Dao Companion of the Palace Master. They have three types of duo cultivation techniques one of them being Spring Spirit Palace, the second being Dream Spirit Palace as for the last one only the Palace Master knows but from the two names, it could be said that the core technique’s name is Amorous Dream Spirit Palace.” Xing Yu felt exceptionally talkative as she went to details even without Shen’s inquiry.

The more she speaks the more confused I get. Although I was ready for it, it really isn’t a good feeling... Shen thought ruefully. He also had a gut feeling for a while. He took out the Spring Spirit Palace portrait and handed it to Xing Yu, “Is this the Spring Spirit Palace you are talking about?”

Xing Yu gave a casual glance when her countenance froze. She wanted to ask if the Amorous Dream Spirit Palace was still active but she clearly remembered his last question. He didn’t know about the palace itself but had the technique.

She won’t flare up because of the not-so-ambiguous portraits, right? Shen cautiously read her expression. If he noticed even a tiny bit of anger then he would run out of the mortal realm. Fight back? Such thought failed to cross his head. But he also found it hard for her to get angry.

Thankfully, he only saw puzzlement in her eyes.

“I found it after killing a nasty Xiantian cultivator. It might be one of a kind. Also there’s no Amorous Dream Spirit Palace in the Nine Continents.” Shen graciously explained.

Xing Yu nodded. She shot a casual glance at the last page before leaving it on the table.

“This is indeed the Spring Spirit Palace but incomplete. At our time, Spring Spirit Palace was wide-spread and popular duo technique. Our race, more specifically, the core members of our household cultivated the Dream Spirit Palace. It’s only handed down to some families. As for the highest grade, only the members of the palace knew such a thing.” Xing Yu shifted her attention to the table again, “It must have been sealed inside some artifact and some lucky fellow chanced upon on it.”

Yes, they must have used it as a ‘material’ before they even realized the true worth of this thing. Shen added when he realized they were going off the topic. While the history of the Amorous Dream Spirit Palace sounded interesting, in many ways, Shen needed to get rid of the Absolute Duo Technique. “Right, is there any way to break off the technique? It circulates automatically when I do that, and you know what that is, and I don’t want another Divine Essence (?) in me.

“No, can I even return Ruyan’s Divine Essence?

“What is this Divine Essence?”

Even without Xing Yu’s reply Shen could guess that this Divine Essence probably meant the main source of Divine Body. Without it, having a Divine Vessel meant the same as not having one.

Xing Yu fell silent for a minute before she spoke, “I... don’t know. Such a thing never happened and Divine Bodies aren’t exactly common. That reminds me, is the knowledge about the Divine Bodies common now and their number is also high?”

Going off-topic again... Shen complained inwardly but he was patient. The time he used to interpret Absolute Duo Technique wasn’t low. Along with his constant meditation he gained some positive change in his temperament. “Neither. Only a few know about Divine Bodies and their number is as low as they could be, I think.”

Xing Yu didn’t bother asking how he knew and Shen also asked a question of his own.

“What do you mean by Divine Vessel and Jade Essence?”

“Ah, so you don’t know about them. Right, what do you know about Divine Bodies?”

“Just that they are Divine Body and related to opening Heavenly Meridians.”

“Heavenly Meridians...” Xing Yu picked her brows at his words, “Now you won’t say you have Heavenly Meridians, right?”

“Right. I have Heavenly Meridians, only one opened though.”

“...” Xing Yu sighed in exasperation. “Is it a Fragmented one? Or Transcendent?”

“Umm... aren’t we getting out of topic...?”

Xing Yu didn’t say anything and kept eyeing but she definitely looked more lively and interested.

“I think a normal one? I don’t know about Fragmented or Transcendent Heavenly Meridians.”

Xing Yu stood up from her chair and tugged Shen’s sleeve.

Shen followed her while asking,“What?”

Just outside the golden Pavilion Xing Yu pushed Shen down. Quite literally.

Bewildered, Shen asked in amusement, “Wh-what are you doing? Only my wives can push me down!”

“I am considered half your wife. Just let me check your meridians.” Xing Yu didn’t even pause at Shen’s shamelessness. She even got rid of his upper garment with unfamiliarity, yet at an adequate speed.

With Shen’s upper garment removed, he frowned at Xing Yu’s touch to his skin. He felt his excess vitality slowly leaving his body. Not that he minded since he had plenty amassed due to not being able to touch a woman for a week. Especially with Immortal Realm’s time, it was massive.

Without looking at his expression Xing Yu said, “Just deal with it. I can only minimize it this much.”

Shen wanted to say that she could absorb plenty but he changed his mind, “I remember that Lust Race can only absorb Yang through intimate action. I mean we need to at least kiss, but I see you can do it without such a thing and from what I can see, you can’t even control it either.”

Xing Yu tersely acknowledged but didn’t deliberate further.

Her two white palms covered his cheeks as she said with a soft voice, “Look at my eyes.”

And for a moment Shen saw a transparent color tinted with pink.
