Chapter 254: The Mysteries of the Soul
“What are you doing? Why did you stop?”
Xiao Wu, with her eyes closed, suddenly asked. Had he lost his stamina? That shouldn’t be. She knew Su Yan’s physical condition better than he did himself.
“I was just thinking about something.”
Su Yan said with a smile, and then his eyes shifted.
“Senior Sister, you also know that I’ve broken through recently and have already reached the Soul Formation stage. Why don’t we try that thing we talked about before?”
“What thing?”
Xiao Wu was a little confused, not knowing what he was talking about.
Seeing that Xiao Wu had forgotten, Su Yan leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words.
“What! You actually want to…”
The more Xiao Wu listened, the redder her face became. Her memory was awakened by Su Yan.
When she had just broken through to the Soul Formation stage, Su Yan had indeed said something to her. That was that if he also broke through, he would do that kind of thing to her.
“You really want to do that? That’s too shameful.”
Xiao Wu said with a flushed face. The two of them had been familiar for so long, and they were very familiar with all sorts of positions and tricks. She hadn’t known what it felt like to be shy for a long time. But Su Yan’s words just now had easily stirred her emotions.
“What’s so surprising about it? Don’t you want to try it? Dual cultivation of the body can increase spiritual power. Maybe doing that will have other effects.”
“Who are you trying to fool?”
Xiao Wu was speechless. The Dao of dual cultivation had been studied for a long time. If there really was such a thing, why hadn’t the books mentioned it? It must be useless!
“How would you know if you don’t try? And aren’t you curious? What would that feel like?”
Su Yan licked his lips and said with a charming expression.
It had to be said, Xiao Wu was moved.
Of course, the reason she was moved was entirely because of the special dual cultivation method, which might have special effects. It was absolutely not because she was curious about that feeling. Absolutely not!
“Alright, I can’t win against you. Let’s give it a try.”
Hearing Xiao Wu’s ease, Su Yan was overjoyed. Although it was not yet dark, he couldn’t wait to press her down onto the bed.
***
Who knows how much time had passed, but Su Yan opened his eyes, refreshed, his face full of pleasant surprise.
“I didn’t expect it to feel like this.”
“Mmm.”
Xiao Wu didn’t speak, her face red. Her body was weak, and she was still immersed in that feeling.
“It’s a little too intense.”
Xiao Wu frowned. After personally experimenting, she roughly understood the difference between the two. Because it was more intimate than the body, the level of sensitivity had also increased several times. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for just one time to make her unable to get up.
And…
“Is it my imagination? I feel that my spirit has increased a little.”
Xiao Wu said with a puzzled expression. Mental strength was a person’s top priority, the derivative energy of the soul.
This special energy would only be slightly enhanced when one broke through a realm or consumed a heavenly material or earthly treasure that nourished the soul.
But she felt that after being intimate with Su Yan, her mental strength seemed to have increased a lot.
“Your mental strength has increased?”
Hearing this, Su Yan was very strange. He had proposed to do this kind of thing with Xiao Wu entirely out of curiosity and a desire for stimulation. He had never thought that there would really be any special benefits.
“Mm, my mental strength has indeed increased a lot.”
After sensing it herself, Xiao Wu nodded with great certainty.
Su Yan was puzzled. Did soul dual cultivation have this kind of benefit? If that was the case, why hadn’t the books mentioned it?
“Perhaps it’s because of your physique?”
Xiao Wu said uncertainly. The reason she was uncertain was because a physique couldn’t affect the soul, which made her a little unsure.
“Since we’re not sure, won’t we know if we do it again?”
Su Yan said with a smile.
At Su Yan’s proposal, Xiao Wu nodded with a red face. Although she was already satisfied, in order to study the great Dao of dual cultivation, she had to try again.
And so, when the two of them opened their eyes again, Xiao Wu said with a strange expression, “I can already see it. Doing this can indeed increase one’s mental strength. But what’s the principle?”
Mental strength was too important. If it could be done just by dual cultivation, it was unreasonable that others wouldn’t know.
The two of them were both puzzled, so they went to ask their Master. When Bai Shuixin heard this question, the usually calm immortal’s lips couldn’t help but twitch.
“You two are really something, to actually do this kind of thing.”
Xiao Wu’s obsession with women was completely seen by Bai Shuixin. Ever since she had married Su Yan a few years ago, her whole person had begun to change.
Sometimes she would run home for no reason and would stay for several days and nights. Bai Shuixin had once told her, but she had never changed. She could only let her be.
Forget it. Young people… it’s only right for them to be obsessed with this kind of thing. After a few years, they will get tired of this kind of thing and focus on pursuing the supreme immortal Dao.
Bai Shuixin had originally thought so. However, Xiao Wu’s words had opened her eyes.
“You’re really going to be the death of me! Not only did you not restrain yourself, but you’ve become even more excessive, playing so much! How am I going to hand over Heavenly Water Peak to you in the future!?”
Seeing her Master get angry, Xiao Wu kept her eyes and nose focused and obediently listened to her scolding.
“Why is Master so angry? I don’t feel it’s anything.”
Su Yan sent a voice transmission in his heart.
“How would I know? Maybe she’s jealous.”
Thinking that her Master had been single for so many years and had never had a man, Xiao Wu guessed that this might be the reason.
Bai Shuixin didn’t know what her disciple was thinking in her heart. If she knew, she would definitely spank him hard. She said coldly, “You two restrain yourselves in the future. Don’t do this anymore.”
Anger was one thing, but as a master, she also had to teach her disciples.
Xiao Wu finally understood why soul dual cultivation could increase one’s mental strength, but no one did it.
“On the one hand, it’s because there are very few male cultivators with high cultivation. On the other hand, it’s because this kind of thing is harmful to the male side. That’s why the immortal sects have no records of it. Only some evil sects have it.”
In this world, women were the heavens. Most men did not have the skill to cultivate. Even if they could occasionally cultivate, they could not cultivate to a high realm.
Because there were few male cultivators with high cultivation, naturally, not many people mentioned this matter.
“I see.”
Xiao Wu finally understood. Mortals and even low-level male cultivators couldn’t soul dual-cultivate. The men who could soul cultivate were pitifully few. And it would also…
Wait, wait, wait!
“Master, you said that doing this is harmful to the male side. What do you mean by that?”
Su Yan also looked at her curiously.
Bai Shuixin said, “The principle of physical dual cultivation is to communicate the yin and yang qi in the bodies of both men and women. Through the harmony of yin and yang, and by refining the man’s essence, the goal of increasing strength is achieved.”
“The damage to the male cultivator from this method can be compensated for by supplementing nutrition. But the soul is different.”
“If you’re careful, you can find that a small part of your soul energy has entered her body and has been completely absorbed by her, which is equivalent to exchanging mental strength for mental strength. And it’s very difficult to supplement.”
Hearing this, Su Yan was shocked. There was such a thing? Had his mental strength decreased? Why didn’t he feel it?
“This is probably because you’re too weak, or your soul energy is abundant. If you try a few more times, a problem will arise.”
Su Yan was lost in thought.
Xiao Wu was a little flustered. Although she wanted to increase her strength to protect her junior brother, she didn’t want to do something that would harm him to help herself!
“Let’s not do it in the future.”
Xiao Wu said with a serious expression.
Hearing this, Su Yan was very regretful. Such a novel thing… he had wanted to try it a few more times. But since it was harmful to him, then there was no other way.
After bidding farewell to Bai Shuixin, Xiao Wu began to observe her own situation. Since her mental strength had increased because she had absorbed Su Yan’s soul energy, could she return it to him? This way, he would return to normal.
“Return it to me? What are you thinking?”
The corner of Su Yan’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch. He had been squeezed out of his essence. It had already entered her soul. It was impossible to take it out. And even if she could, he didn’t want it.
“You can just keep that thing.”
Although it was a part of him, no one would want to retrieve it from a woman’s body. Just thinking about it was perverted.
“You’re being too willful.”
Xiao Wu said irritably.
Su Yan didn’t listen at all. Anyway, he didn’t want to retrieve that thing. It was just a little loss of mental strength. He had given it, so he had given it. Why take it back?
And not only could he not get over it psychologically, but Su Yan also had a little selfishness of his own.
“Your body is mine, and there’s a part of me in your soul.”
“What a strange possessiveness.”
Xiao Wu rolled her eyes at him.
Su Yan giggled and held her slender waist tightly.
***
Because of the drawbacks of soul dual cultivation, Xiao Wu decided to forbid this kind of thing. But Su Yan had a different opinion.
“There are very few treasures that can nourish the soul, but they’re not non-existent. If you look carefully, you can still find them. This is not a difficult matter.”
Su Yan found that the mental strength he gained through soul dual cultivation was about twice what he had consumed. That is to say, he had paid one point of mental strength, but Xiao Wu could get two points.
If there were enough spiritual treasures, using this method to dual-cultivate would definitely be a profitable business.
“In that case, I’m the only one who’s getting the benefits. Why are you so enthusiastic?”
Xiao Wu was puzzled. Su Yan had always complained before that although it was the labor of both of them, she was the only one who got the benefits. He had been nagging for a long time, which had left a deep impression on Xiao Wu.
“What’s yours is mine. Your person is mine. Of course, I’m concerned.”
Su Yan said with a grin. He would never say that he was a little obsessed with that feeling and found it very exciting, to slowly fill her soul and completely pollute her body and mind.
“You’re just saying that.”
Xiao Wu said with a red face but did not refute at all.
And so, in addition to cultivating, Xiao Wu began to consciously collect treasures in this area. She had spent a lot of spirit stones, but it was worth it.
“My mental strength has increased again.”
Xiao Wu said with pleasant surprise.
Because Su Yan was nourished by treasures, he had not suffered any loss at all. Through several deep and intimate encounters with Xiao Wu, her mental strength had increased a lot.
