Chapter 166


    “Xiao Chen, why have you been staring at your martial aunt all this time? What are you looking at?” Zhan Qiuyun’s elegant voice rang out.


    Yang Chen immediately snapped back to his senses.


    “Nothing, nothing at all! It’s just that Martial Aunt’s eyes are very big and beautiful, and your nephew couldn’t help but take an extra look! I’ve been impolite; please forgive me, Martial Aunt!”


    “Hehe, it’s fine!” Zhan Qiuyun chuckled lightly, seemingly unconcerned.


    Although she was veiled, making it hard to see her true face, just that smile, combined with those autumn-like* eyes, carried infinite beauty.


    [*Autumn-like eyes The term “autumn eyes” in Chinese literature symbolizes gentle, clear, and beautiful eyes, often used to depict a woman’s grace.]


    Seeing the two exchanging pleasantries, Zhan Lingshuang on the side grew a bit impatient: “Second sister, have you finished preparing the spatial formation altar that connects Ice and Snow City and Xuantian Sect yet? I need to return to Xuantian Sect immediately to take care of some matters! If these matters aren’t settled, I won’t go with you to Heavenly Dao Holy Land!”


    “Don’t worry, I’ve already completed the spatial formation altar!” As she spoke, Zhan Qiuyun waved her jade-like hand, and a jade altar appeared, engraved with numerous formation patterns that flowed with spatial ripples.


    Strands of moon-white light surrounded it, forming a light gate in the center of the altar, seemingly able to connect two realms.


    “Spatial formation altar?” Yang Chen’s pupils slightly contracted.


    Earlier, in the secret realm of the City Lord’s Mansion, the stone stele had also been a method of connecting Ice and Snow City with a small realm. However, that stele was left behind by the Ice Phoenix tens of thousands of years ago.


    That Ice Phoenix was able to open up a small realm on its own, its strength was surely terrifying beyond measure. But this moon-robed beautiful woman was also capable of creating a spatial formation altar. Her strength must also be extraordinary.


    Seeing the surprise in Yang Chen’s eyes, Zhan Qiuyun softly explained: “Xiao Chen, your martial aunt has cultivated in the Dao of Space for over a thousand years. Creating a spatial formation altar and spanning thousands of miles across realms is nothing more than a flick of the wrist. If you want to learn, Martial Aunt can teach you! Since your master reached the Nascent Soul Realm, she has been cultivating in the Northern Spiritual Realm. This time, when she returns, the family has already prepared all kinds of heavenly treasures to help her rapidly improve her cultivation! So once your master returns, she will be focused on her cultivation. During that time, you can cultivate under your martial aunt’s guidance!”


    At the same time, where their hands met, two streams of true qi, one gold and one white, intertwined.


    “Such high-quality qi. It seems this boy has indeed awakened an extraordinary physique! Even if it isn’t a Pure Yang Sacred Physique, it’s not far off! Such a body of extreme yang can help me transform my Dark Moon Physique into a Bright Moon Sacred Physique! At that time, not only will I be able to correct the defects of my physique, but I’ll also break through the bottleneck of the Soul Transformation Realm!”


    Various thoughts flickered through Zhan Qiuyun’s mind ...


    Through this brief exchange of qi, she had completely confirmed that Yang Chen possessed an extreme yang physique no less than the Pure Yang Sacred Physique. It could help her Dark Moon Physique overcome its deficiencies.


    “Martial Aunt, what’s happening to our hands?” Yang Chen looked confused.


    Zhan Qiuyun smiled and said: “Xiao Chen, the extreme yang qi within you has become entangled with the dark moon qi inside me! This is a good thing! Listen to your martial aunt, in less than half an hour, your true qi will grow significantly, equivalent to several months of hard cultivation!”


    The defect of Zhan Qiuyun’s Dark Moon Physique was the extreme cold of her primordial qi. This was an innate defect, a characteristic of her physique. Because of this, her cultivation had advanced rapidly, reaching the peak of the Soul Transformation Realm in less than two thousand years.


    However, this came with the downside of her Dark Moon Physique’s primordial cold severely limiting her ability to break through. The last time she faced a tribulation, it had been a near-death experience. If she forced a breakthrough again, she would undoubtedly perish under the heavenly tribulation. Only by transforming her Dark Moon Physique into the Bright Moon Sacred Physique and correcting this defect could she survive the tribulation.


    And transforming it required the qi of an extreme yang physique, at least of the Pure Yang Sacred Physique level, to neutralize the primordial cold within her Dark Moon Physique.


    Yang Chen’s cultivation was in the Soul Transformation Realm. Neutralizing the primordial qi of a peak Soul Transformation Realm cultivator like Zhan Qiuyun naturally brought him immense benefits.


    After just half an hour, his true qi had grown substantially, indeed equating to several months of cultivation.


    But at that moment, the system’s voice rang out in Yang Chen’s mind:


    [Ding, after half an hour of primordial qi entanglement with Zhan Qiuyun through skin contact, the host has plundered Xiao Dong’s Providence Luck by 1000 points, and gained 1000 VPs!]
