Immersed in Union

The Sunflower is an extremely rare Plant-type Soul Beast, possessing both light and life attributes, and grows by absorbing sunlight and purifying power.

Its petals can release healing light, and the orbs of light in its flower head can launch powerful purifying attacks, making it extremely effective against evil, poison, and dark creatures.

"An 80,000-year-old Sunflower." Tang San's gaze fell on the giant flower, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. "Lingling, this Soul Beast's attributes are very compatible with yours."

As soon as the words were spoken, the Sunflower's flower head suddenly began to spin, and dozens of golden light blades were released from the sphere of light, shooting towards the two of them.

Tang San twirled the Blue Silver Overlord Spear in his hand, and pointed the tip out, knocking away the light blades one by one.

The golden blade of light struck the mountain wall, exploding into golden sparks and scorching fine cracks into the rock surface.

"Lingling, you stay behind." Tang San charged forward towards the blade of light. "I'll suppress it; you find an opportunity to deliver the final blow."

The Sunflower's attacks grew increasingly fierce, its flower head spinning wildly, and golden light blades rained down like a storm, mixed with light containing purifying power, attempting to penetrate Tang San's defenses.

Those rays of light would be a deadly threat to ordinary Soul Masters, but for Soul Master like Tang San, who possesses extreme vitality, the power of purification could not cause much harm.

Tang San touched the ground with the tip of the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, poured his Soul Power into it, the earth cracked, and countless Blue Silver vines broke through the soil, surging towards the Sunflower like a tide, wrapping around its stem layer by layer.

The Sunflower trembled violently, and golden light exploded through the gaps in the vines, burning the innermost vines to ashes. But Tang San's vines were endless; as one layer was burned, a new one would take its place.

The golden light blades began to thin, and the flower disc's rotation slowed down.

The Sunflowers ' resistance grew weaker and weaker, and their golden light gradually faded.

Finally, the flower head stopped spinning, like an ordinary flower that had finally calmed down.

"Lingling, take it off!" Tang San reminded her.

Ye Lingling stepped forward and gently picked the Sunflower.

The Sunflower petals trembled slightly, curling and closing from the edges until they transformed into a black Soul Ring that slowly rose from the petals.

Ye Lingling sat down cross-legged and began to guide her Soul Rings and absorb energy.

Three hours later, Ye Lingling opened her eyes.

Seven Soul Rings rose from beneath her feet: two yellow, two purple, and three black.

With her previous training, her Soul Power broke through to level 74, and her Soul Skills remained focused on healing and recovery.

To their even greater surprise, Sunflower not only contributed Soul Ring, but also left behind a high-quality left leg Soul Bone.

The Soul Bone was pale gold in color, with a warm halo flowing across its surface, like a piece of solidified sunlight.

Ye Lingling placed the Soul Bone against her left leg, closed her eyes, and began to absorb it.

The energy of that Soul Bone was gentle and pure, perfectly matching the life energy within her body, and the absorption process was exceptionally smooth.

His Soul Power increased by another level, reaching level seventy-five.

The Soul Bone Skill is "Solar Radiance Foot".

Once activated, the left leg emits the glow of Sunflower, increasing movement speed by 100%.

It also inflicts continuous damage on evil, poisonous, and dark creatures within its range. The effect is doubled in bright sunlight.

After absorbing the Soul Bone, the two continued forward.

The further they went, the more intense the life force became. The life energy in the air surged in from all directions like warm waves, enveloping their bodies.

With each breath, I felt my body being strengthened by some force, and fatigue and pain slowly dissipated in this intoxicating sense of comfort.

Tang San and Ye Lingling both stopped unconsciously, breathing greedily.

They looked at each other, both seeing in each other's eyes the desire to merge.

That wasn't lust, but a more primal, instinctive desire.

Two individuals carrying immense life energy resonated most intensely within an extremely high concentration of life energy field.

Tang San and Ye Lingling gradually lost their minds in this desire.

They embraced, kissed, took off their clothes, and began to merge completely.

That feeling is indescribable.

It was as if the souls of two people had become one river at that moment, indistinguishable from one another.

Their life force slowly flows into each other's bodies through special parts, and the two energies circulate back and forth between their bodies, forming a perfect, never-ending closed loop.

The plants in the valley seemed to sense this fusion as well.

The flowers bloomed even more brilliantly, and the leaves swayed gently in the breeze, as if singing for the union of these two lives.

The emotions that could be released without limit completely immersed the two of them, making it impossible for them to extricate themselves.

One day, two days, five days, ten days.

They embraced each other in the valley, feeling each other's warmth and heartbeat, forgetting the passage of time, forgetting everything outside, and even forgetting that they were undergoing Divine Examination.

Two months later.

Tang San's consciousness gradually drifted into a state of confusion.

This feeling is so comfortable, so comfortable that I don't want to wake up.

But a faint voice inside him kept reminding him that something was wrong.

The voice grew clearer and more resolute.

The images of Qian Renxue, Shui Bing'er, Dugu Yan, and Xiao Wu began to appear in Tang San's mind. They were waiting for him to return, and he could not give up like this.

Tang San's consciousness jolted, and he gradually stepped out of that intoxicating comfort zone, slowly regaining his senses.

He shook his head vigorously and immediately understood that this was the most dangerous part of the Paradise Road.

The pure and pristine vitality of Paradise Road makes it easy to become deeply immersed in it, greedily absorbing everything without realizing it.

The overflowing vitality can further stimulate the desire to reproduce, making people indulge in that extreme sense of comfort.

Ultimately, they were consumed by this comfort, completely lost their reason, and became nourishment for the Paradise Road.

If Tang San hadn't woken up in time, he and Ye Lingling might have remained here forever, becoming part of this valley.

Tang San suppressed the strong urge to continue their union and forcefully pushed away Ye Lingling, who was clinging to him and had lost her mind.

Ye Lingling's eyes were unfocused, as if veiled by a hazy mist.

Her lips were slightly parted, uttering soft, indistinct murmurs, her hands still instinctively trying to grab Tang San.

Tang San quickly dressed, then picked up the naked Ye Lingling.

He suppressed the impulse and activated his Blue Silver Domain at full power, enveloping himself and Ye Lingling in a layer of blue-gold light.

That light can block some of the penetration of external life energy, preventing them from being gently devoured and affected.

Then he quickly walked towards the outer perimeter.

With each step he took, it felt as if an invisible hand was tugging at his clothes, trying to pull him back to that comfortable, warm place.

But Tang San did not stop.

He carried Ye Lingling step by step through the valley, toward the ever-approaching open sky.

After walking for about an hour, the road ahead suddenly opened up.

At the end of the valley is a huge gap, beyond which lies a wider and brighter sky.

Right in the center of this patch of light, the most powerful obstacle appeared.

That turned out to be the huge ancient tree they had saved in the previous stage.
