After the initial surprise, Lu Chen furrowed his brow, suspecting that this system might not really have originated from his Divine Soul.
He and Bai Qingqing even had a child together and had been husband and wife for quite so ti, yet marrying her again allowed him to receive a system reward.
However, to think Bai Qingqing still seed like it was her first ti—could it be that Bai Qingqing also reincarnated?
Sothing seed off; the Ancestor of the Strange is immortal, so how could reincarnation be possible?
That discussion could wait; now was not the ti. Since he received a system technique, it was imperative to quickly test the usefulness of this system cultivation technique.
Lu Chen hurriedly opened the "Spirit Evil Body Refining Skill."
["Spirit Evil Body Refining Skill": Host’s exclusive cultivation technique, Spirit Realm Technique, allows the absorption of spiritual evil into the body, refining the Physical Body, with a dual cultivation effect multiplied a thousandfold.]
The cultivation technique levels in this world are akin to personal realms, but higher levels don’t always equate to better techniques.
The higher the level of the cultivation technique, the harder it is to practice. The alignnt of cultivation technique levels with personal realms aims to prevent practitioners from going insane by recklessly chasing after High Tier techniques.
Inducing spiritual evil into the body is risky in itself, and if one practices cultivation techniques haphazardly, the likelihood of going insane is quite high.
Generally speaking, Mortal Realm Spiritual Martial Artists can only practice Mortal Realm Techniques, Human Realm Spiritual Martial Artists can only practice Human Realm Techniques, and Spirit Realm Spirit Warriors can only practice Spirit Realm Techniques.
Of course, there are exceptional talents capable of cultivating High Tier techniques across realms, and so spiritual martial artists can break through to the next realm through High Tier cultivation thods during the late period of their current realm.
For Lu Chen, a regular person, to practice a Spirit Realm Technique is like asking a kindergarten child to do calculus.
Fortunately, though, the "Spirit Evil Body Refining Skill" is Lu Chen’s exclusive technique. Lu Chen didn’t believe he couldn’t learn it, and since it even ntioned dual cultivation, it must an that mastering this technique is similar to his past experiences in the Burial Furnace.
With this in mind, Lu Chen imdiately clicked to learn, and in the next mont, the contents of the "Spirit Evil Body Refining Skill" entered his mind. Suddenly, Lu Chen felt so gas-like substance entering his body through his pores. These gases were quite volatile, destroying his vitality as soon as they entered his body.
Lu Chen gritted his teeth; engaging in dual cultivation at a ti like this—was that a joke? His whole body was in agonizing pain; how could he even think of dual cultivation?
This exclusive cultivation technique was turning out to be a trap. Lu Chen pondered on who devised this reward, and vowed that upon gaining more strength, he would capture the mastermind behind this technique and interrogate them on their thoughts when creating it.
While Lu Chen was enduring the pain, Bai Qingqing sensed sothing was wrong with him. She could tell that the spiritual evil in the room was entering Lu Chen’s body.
Ordinary spiritual evil generally wouldn’t actively enter a person’s body unless one actively absorbed it, but Lu Chen was just an ordinary person. How could he absorb spiritual evil?
Worried, Bai Qingqing quickly pushed Lu Chen, who was leaning on her body, trying to turn him over to check on his condition.
However, as soon as her jade hands touched Lu Chen’s shoulders, he suddenly sat up, clasped her hands in his, and pinned them beside her silky hair.
Lu Chen looked down at her, gritting his teeth against the pain and said, "Don’t move!"
Seeing the grim expression on Lu Chen’s face, Bai Qingqing was stunned again and imdiately asked, "What’s the matter? I shall have the subordinates..."
Before Bai Qingqing finished speaking, Lu Chen interrupted her, saying, "What... subordinates? You’ve already married , you’re my Side Concubine now."
Bai Qingqing was startled once more, and spoke, "I..."
Bai Qingqing was again cut off by Lu Chen, who said, "Don’t speak, let quietly focus first."
Seeing that Lu Chen insisted, Bai Qingqing had no choice but to stay silent, all the while observing Lu Chen’s body closely, trying to figure out how an ordinary individual could suddenly absorb spiritual evil.
For ordinary people, spiritual evil is lethal and not beneficial at all.
Ten seconds passed quickly, and after adjusting his breathing, Lu Chen found that his body was much improved.
Just then, Lu Chen seed to understand sothing: the thousandfold increase in cultivation speed during dual cultivation might an distracting oneself during the process to alleviate the pain caused by embodying spiritual evil.
Thinking along these lines, Lu Chen, without hesitation, bent down again and sealed Bai Qingqing’s lips with his own.
Bai Qingqing was sowhat bewildered by Lu Chen’s actions. How could he think of doing such a thing when he was just in excruciating pain?
Soon, Lu Chen realized that distraction indeed seed feasible through dual cultivation. Even while he was engaged with Bai Qingqing, the "Spirit Evil Body Refining Skill" continued its operation, and the spiritual evil from the Zhen Nan Prince Manor kept flowing into Lu Chen’s body ceaselessly.
Furthermore, Lu Chen noticed that after his body was refined by the spiritual evil, his stamina remarkably improved; he was barely alive monts before, yet now he was brimming with vigor.
It appeared that this particular activity could dispel the pain caused by embodying spiritual evil.
By now, Bai Qingqing also noticed Lu Chen’s anomaly. Visibly, Lu Chen’s body beca sturdier, evidently spurred by spiritual evil refining. However, she couldn’t comprehend how Lu Chen, having passed the age for embodying spiritual evil, could still do so.
Moreover, Lu Chen could multi-task while refining his body with spiritual evil, absorbing it at a trendous speed. Even she dared not absorb spiritual evil so recklessly.
Refining spiritual evil in the body is a lengthy process, and absorbing too quickly might backfire, leading to a decline in cultivation state or, worse, instant death.
Bai Qingqing initially wanted to persuade Lu Chen to stop, but with Lu Chen continuously pinning her down and sealing her mouth, she found it impossible to dissuade him.
She considered forcibly pushing Lu Chen away since she was at the mid-stage Human Realm, while Lu Chen had just started embodying spiritual evil as a regular person.
But doing so might disrupt Lu Chen’s Body Refining pace, causing him to go insane, so she resigned herself to watching.
After an unspecified duration, a surge of energy burst from Lu Chen’s body, emitting a deep blue glow.
Witnessing this, Bai Qingqing was utterly baffled.
Was this a breakthrough?
How could this be!
Lu Chen had just started embodying spiritual evil, yet not even two hours later, he had advanced from being an ordinary person to a Mortal Realm Spiritual Martial Artist?
Typically, it takes years for one to breakthrough from the first embodint of spiritual evil to the Mortal Realm. Of course, this mainly occurs when they are children, to see if they can withstand the corrosive nature of spiritual evil.
Regardless, absorbing a large amount of spiritual evil for the first ti usually causes significant damage to a person’s body. It was remarkable that Lu Chen wasn’t overwheld by the spiritual evil, and even more astonishing that he achieved a breakthrough.
