Hao Ren and Han Lingshi were sitting back-to-back again. Their bodies were covered with gashes and bruises they earned while rushing to their current position. The manifestations of the flas were roaring at them. The next mont, the phantoms dissolved and transford into wisps of pure destructive energy and rushed inside the bodies of the two people.
The couple shivered as a terrible pain courses through their bodies. Han Lingshi was about to scream when she heard Hao Ren's voice as he recited his cultivation sutra. The voice was calm and it shocked her so much that she even forgot her pain. It was not that Hao Ren was invulnerable to pain, but he was tolerating it and focusing on the power that was testing him.
She could sense his body shivering, and also his resolve. She grit her teeth and began to recite the cultivation mantra for her technique as well.
The energy that the couple was trying to refine was so strong that it was freezing and lting the bodies of Han Lingshi and Hao Ren from the inside, respectively.
While Han Lingshi was focused on cultivation and enduring the pain. Hai Ren yelled in his mind, "System! You motherfucking eunuch voiced piece is shit! Seal the flas, my bones are turning to ash."
*Ding: Five minutes later, the spiritual flas will be seal. You will have to endure and use this opportunity to refine your body. Also, for cursing the system, the host recieves one minute penalty.*
Hao Ren coughed up a mouthful of blood. No, it was not entirely the cruelty displayed by the system but also the damage left in his body by the flas. Now that he knew what the system was going to do, he just has to ball up and tolerate the pain.
Hao Ren was also dedicated when it ca to cultivation, so he focused on the wisps of energy that were moving inside his body and then the chant began. After just ten seconds, the couple was focused on cultivation, and the energy from the flas began to move through their bodies.
It did not take for the two of them to enter the higher sync and the energy began to move from one body to the other. The cold and hot energies helped them sustain but at the sa ti it caused them to suffer as well. The sudden drops and rise in the body temperature was making them feel relieved but at the sa ti it was scary as well.
The energy slowly began to move inside the dantian. While Hao Ren had only the Yang Flas inside his body, Han Lingshi was absorbing the cold Yin flas. Their realm was also increasing steadily. The wisps of spiritual energy were being refined into a purer quality as the fla energies accumulated above the spirit whirlpool.
Hao Ren did not care about anything at the mont, because while he was refining the fla energy, a shared of it rushed to his mind and he felt as if soone has put a rotating drill inside his skull. Then a dull thunder echoed throughout his body. This was the impact of his soul sea being tore open.
Now, Hao Ren found himself standing on a barren patch of land and before him a beautiful red bird was flying around. The width of the wings were enough to sha the world's biggest plane, and the beauty of her eyes were sothing that could not be put into words.
Hao Ren took a deep breath and was about to think about what just happened, when the bird in the sky turned to look at him. Hao Ren shivered, the fear that he felt at this mont was sothing that a weaker species felt when looked down upon by a predator who sat higher in the food chain.
The bird let out a shrill chirp and with a flick of her wings she appeared before Hao Ren. Just when the young man thought this phantom was going to obliterate his soul. He heard, *Ding: Refinent process complete, seal initiated.*
The spiritual energy around him began to condense into chains and then it quickly wrapped around the bird. The vermillion bird cried, and the landscape shook. The young man had no idea what was going on. After a few monts, the bird cald down, it realized that the binds around her body were created by soone who was even stronger than her.
The young man took a deep breath and said, "Oh, thank god. Did you finish dealing with Han Lingshi as well?"
*Ding: Host, the manifestation phantom of the Nether Dragon Fla has been sealed inside the soul sea of Mrs. Hao.*
The young man took a deep breath in relief, and then asked, "Can you tell how do I have the access of my soul sea when I am only at the spirit gathering energy?"
*Ding: The energy of the spiritual fire was so strong that it rushed through your main ridian and broke through the barriers of the soul sea. The fla wanted to destroy your soul because it could not deal a blow to your body as it was being nurtured by both elents of spiritual energy.*
Hao Ren understood and then he said, "Well, now that the task has been completed, what is the reward?"
*Ding: Host, you will receive a boxing technique. While your wife will receive a secret technique as well. That will be pushed directly to her mind.*
Hao Ren closed his eyes and then he exited his soul sea. When he opened his eyes in the real life, he found that his clothes had all burned to ashes, and he was butt naked. Just then he sensed a weight against his back, and the familiar softness. He took a deep breath and said, "Lingshi, are you okay?"
Han Lingshi humd gently and then she asked, "What about you?"
The young man replied, "I am fine as well. I have gained access to my soul sea. I think it is the sa with you?"
The lady nodded and after a few minutes of leaning against each other, they seed to have regained a bit of their energy. Hao Ren said, "I want to cultivate a little more to get familiar with this energy. The flas in our body will purify the spiritual energy we absorb, but it will slower the process of advancent."
Han Lingshi thought for a bit and said, "Even if it slows us down, it will give us a stronger and firr foundation."
Hao Ren sighed and replied, "Mom will not let go to the spirit shimr continent if I could not break through to the core formation realm within an year. How will I get back your throne?"
Han Lingshi chuckled and said, "You are not worried about the Han Family issues?"
Hao Ren clicked his tongue and said, "I will handle that when I am at least void shattering realm. Think about it, Old Boy Hao was so strong yet he was forced to run away from his ho. I wonder how strong were the enemies. Just because we are getting stronger, it does not an they are waiting for us to co down and beat them."
Han Lingshi replied, "I understand what you are saying, but if you cannot confront your enemies until you are in the Void Shattering Realm, what is even the point to go to the spirit shimr continent when you are just at core formation realm?"
The young man replied, "It is because we need to face our own tribulations and grow stronger. We will need to form even better connections. That is why we need to get there."
The lady sighed and said, "Why does life have so much struggle? Why can't we just go and live at a farm and grow old?"
Hao Ren chuckled and said, "We can do that, how about it?"
Han Lingshi pushed against him and said, "Cultivate already, why do you talk so much?"
The two people closed their eyes and began to cultivate. Hao Ren was also trying to learn more about the boxing technique that he had just gained, and Han Lingshi was the sa.
...
Outside the cave, Rati was sitting on a rocking chair in the backyard of the house. She was staring at the sky, and just a few seconds ago, the clouds cleared and the stars appeared vividly. Rati was surprised by this, because even though the pollution in the area was almost negligible, she had never seen so many stars gathered in the sky.
She mumbled, "The barrier is gone."
The barrier that was erected by the spiritual flas to conceal their presence was now gone, it ant, Hao Ren and Han Lingshi had finished refining the flas. Just when the sun was about to co up, she saw two people stepping out of the stairwell.
The sunlight broke through the dark of the night and illuminated their figure, and Rati could not help but say, "Couple of Dragon and Phoenix descends, when they soar the world will change."
The two people ca closer to her, and said, "Thank you for giving us this chance, Senior."
