Interrupting Dual Cultivation

When Lin Dong discovered that the owner of this Tomb Mansion had actually advanced to the Nirvana Realm through the dual cultivation of Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation, his expression immediately became extremely interesting. Then, his gaze fell on Ling Qingzhu, who was sitting cross-legged on the Green Lotus in mid-air.

Judging from the small characters, Lin Dong knew that the owner of this Tomb Mansion must have done it on purpose. Who would bother to look at those inconspicuous marks in the corner of the coffin wall? If an ordinary person did not know the secrets and casually refined the Nirvana Heart, the final result would be as the coffin wall said, inevitably resulting in being burned to death.

Even in death, the owner of this Tomb Mansion still managed to cause trouble for those who came after him, which is rather speechless.

Under Lin Dong's gaze, Ling Qingzhu, who was sitting cross-legged on the Green Lotus, still appeared quite calm. The so-called Burning Body Fruit did not appear, which made Lin Dong somewhat doubt the authenticity of the writing on the coffin wall.

"Could these remaining notes also be a trap?" Lin Dong muttered with some disappointment.

"Bang!"

However, just as Lin Dong finished muttering, a sound of surging energy suddenly came from mid-air. He hurriedly looked up and saw that violent energy fluctuations suddenly rose from the Green Lotus, and the source of the fluctuations was Ling Qingzhu's body.

"Really!"

Upon seeing this, Lin Dong's heart skipped a beat.

Within the Green Lotus, Ling Qingzhu's beautiful cheeks. An extremely pure and powerful energy continuously surged forth from her body, causing ripples to spread across the Green Lotus's light barrier.

The Green Lotus shimmered, and waves of fierce energy emanated continuously from Ling Qingzhu's body, indicating that she was currently engaged in a fierce internal struggle.

Lin Dong, watching from below, was secretly astonished to see that Ling Qingzhu could even temporarily suppress the energy of the Nirvana Heart. This woman's strength was truly terrifying.

Although a stalemate ensued, it was only temporary. The Nirvana Heart was the essence of a Nirvana Realm expert's lifelong cultivation. No matter how stunning Ling Qingzhu was, she was still somewhat inferior to him. Therefore, after the confrontation lasted for several minutes, the Green Lotus light screen suddenly shattered, and Ling Qingzhu's body was almost entirely enveloped by a layer of extremely pure Pure Yin Qi.

Normally, this might be a great tonic for Ling Qingzhu, but if you overdo it, it becomes an extremely poisonous substance. If you can't neutralize this Pure Yin Qi, and it accumulates too much in your body, it will turn into Pure Yin Fire, burning your body from the inside out.

"Shameless scoundrel!"

On the Green Lotus, Ling Qingzhu suddenly stood up, her tone icy. Then, she raised her jade hand, and an extremely powerful Yuan Power shot out, transforming into a giant palm that slammed hard onto the Stone Coffin of the Nirvana Realm expert.

"Bang!"

With a deafening roar, the Stone Coffin and the skeleton inside were smashed to pieces by Ling Qingzhu. Seeing this, Lin Dong's lips twitched. This woman was indeed no pushover. She had just taken someone's Nirvana Heart, and the next moment she turned on them and left them with nothing but bones.

Lin Dong cautiously retreated a little distance. This woman was showing signs of going berserk. If he went up to her now, he would probably be slapped to death and wouldn't even have a chance to complain.

Unbeknownst to either of them, faint red light began to flicker within the dust of the shattered Stone Coffin.

After smashing the Stone Coffin with a palm to vent her anger, Ling Qingzhu's delicate body trembled again. She could feel a ball of flame slowly forming inside her body. The flame was not scorching hot, but rather exuded endless coldness and chill. However, under this flame, the powerful Yuan Power in her body began to show signs of stiffness.

Ling Qingzhu flashed rapidly, and after a moment, she suddenly gritted her teeth, turned her gaze, and looked at the only person in the area.

Seeing that Ling Qingzhu's gaze had finally fallen upon him, Lin Dong's face twitched slightly. He slowly took a step back and said with a dry laugh, "Miss Qingzhu, I think it's not advisable to stay here any longer. I'll take my leave now." As soon as he finished speaking, he fled directly towards the Bronze gate.

Seeing Lin Dong running so fast, Ling Qingzhu laughed in exasperation. "Why didn't you leave sooner?"

Lin Dong did not escape as he had hoped. Just as he was about to burst through the Bronze gate, an extremely powerful gust of wind surged from behind, slamming heavily against the Bronze gate and slamming it shut. A sound came from behind him.

"Qingzhu wishes to borrow some of your Yang Qi. If it resolves this predicament, she will surely reward you handsomely."

"That's not a good idea. My master instructed me that I must not lose my virginity before I reach the Nirvana Realm!" Lin Dong turned around and said with a dry laugh.

Inside Lin Dong's body, Little Marten's lips twitched upon hearing this. "What are you thinking, kid?" he quickly warned.

"Lin Dong, be careful. This woman probably wants to forcibly extract your Yang Qi. If she does, it will definitely damage your foundation, and the aftereffects will be extremely serious."

"If obtained through normal yin-yang methods, both parties would benefit greatly. However, this woman is clearly very aloof; even young talents like Lin Langtian are beneath her notice. Naturally, she would never use that method on you. So don't dream that she'll hand over her virginity to you. Run!"

As expected, upon hearing Lin Dong's words, Ling Qingzhu smiled faintly and said...

"Please rest assured, young master, sexual intercourse is not required to extract a person's Yang Qi. Qingzhu has other methods."

Hearing this, Lin Dong felt a chill run down his spine and said without hesitation, "Miss Qingzhu, you should go find someone else. It's really not appropriate for me to go. There's Lin Langtian and the others outside."

"You!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Qingzhu's eyes immediately turned angry; Lin Dong's words were far too sharp.

"Young Master Lin Dong, Qingzhu said that no matter how much you lose, I will compensate you many times over." Although she was angry, Ling Qingzhu was clearly very well-mannered. Even at this moment, she still took a light breath and tried to make her tone as gentle as possible.

"No interest, goodbye!" Lin Dong waved his hand, and the door opened.

However, suddenly a force emerged, and the door that had just been opened suddenly slammed shut, blocking his way.

"Well, if you run away, that's not what I want."

"Who is it!" Ling Qingzhu became alert upon seeing this scene.

However, just as Ling Qingzhu finished speaking, a slightly mocking voice suddenly rang out in the empty Stone Hall, startling Lin Dong and Ling Qingzhu. They quickly turned their gazes over and saw a few red lights floating up above the broken stones of the Stone Coffin. In the end, the lights transformed into a phantom figure that smiled at Lin Dong.

The light and shadow appeared illusory, clearly not a physical entity. This figure looked to be around thirty years old, appearing extremely young, with a radiant face and a refined demeanor.

"Who are you?!"

Who I am is not important; what matters is that I want to help others achieve their goals.

The refined man smiled slightly, then pointed his hand in the air, and the Nirvana Heart that Ling Qingzhu had absorbed into her body exploded completely. Extremely cold Pure Yin Qi surged out like a tide, freezing all the Yuan Power in Ling Qingzhu's body in an instant.

As Ling Qingzhu's internal Yuan Power was frozen, a feeling of weakness immediately welled up from within her body. At this moment, the Green Lotus beneath her feet burst forth with brilliant light, desperately trying to dissolve the pure Yin energy within Ling Qingzhu's body.

Sensing the changes within her body, Ling Qingzhu finally felt a surge of fear.

"Oh? You do possess such a treasure. It seems your background is quite powerful. However, it's of no use to a dead man like me."

Seeing the Green Lotus begin to glow and actually resist the spread of Pure Yin Qi, the refined man was somewhat surprised. He then smiled, pointed his finger in the air again, and a beam of light shot out, completely enveloping the Green Lotus and separating it from Ling Qingzhu.

"Buzz!"

Green Lotus struggled frantically, shooting out streaks of azure light, but she still couldn't escape the refined man's blockade. Then, in the next moment, a flash of light appeared, and Green Lotus and Ling Qingzhu suddenly disappeared.

The Tomb Owner suddenly realized that the person he was going to help had disappeared. He stood there stunned, then looked at Lin Dong, only to find that he was also nowhere to be seen. After a moment, he helplessly vanished.

On the mountain peak outside the ancient tomb, a Seven-Colored Radiance appeared, and two figures appeared in the spot: a disheveled young man and a graceful woman whose condition seemed a bit off.

Ling Qingzhu's bare, snow-white skin was unusually flushed, and her originally clear eyes, in their struggle, were gradually filled with an erotic mist.

"Shameless scoundrel!"

Reason was gradually fading. Ling Qingzhu was completely unaware of the changes in her environment. Her delicate body trembled continuously, but the sound of gritting her teeth could still be heard in a low voice.

Suddenly, she sensed an extremely strong masculine Aura surging into her nostrils. Instinctively, she stretched out a slender, lotus-root-like arm and suddenly wrapped it around his neck. Her delicate, boneless body clung to him like a water snake, and a faint fragrance wafted out.

The ethereal fairy, who was originally untouched by worldly affairs, now possessed seductive eyes and transformed into a bewitching enchantress. She leaned against the newcomer's chest, panting softly, but beneath the thin veil, a barely audible voice could still be heard.

"Lin Dong, if you dare to touch me, I will kill you afterwards."

"What does your killing of Lin Dong have to do with me..."

Unexpectedly, another man's voice responded to him. As the voice rang out, Ling Qingzhu felt a surge of Yang Qi rapidly flowing into her body. She felt the Dry Heat all over her body vanish, and she instantly regained some calm.

The comforting sensation of the Yang Qi flowing into her made her unable to resist collapsing into that person's arms.

"If you're awake, you'd better get up! Otherwise, my apprentice will be unhappy."

As he spoke, Mu Lingshan stepped forward and helped Ling Qingzhu, who was gradually regaining consciousness, slowly pulling her out of the man's embrace.

At this moment, Ling Qingzhu finally saw the appearance of the newcomer. His handsome appearance was the most beautiful she had ever seen. His flowing long hair and white robe removed the eerie aura that came with excessive handsomeness and gave him a scholarly air. However, the demeanor he inadvertently revealed indicated that the newcomer was not a simple person, which made Ling Qingzhu slightly stunned.

Then, she said respectfully, "Ling Qingzhu the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace thanks you for saving me, Senior."

The one being thanked was Xiao Ming. He nodded and smiled, then said, "No need to thank me. I saved you for a reason, but we'll talk about that later. You should take care of your health first."

"Thank you, senior." Ling Qingzhu did not refuse upon hearing this, though her legs were slightly weak and she was indeed not in a good position to speak.

Seeing Ling Qingzhu begin to regulate her breathing, Xiao Ming also looked at Lin Dong, only to be met with an ice sculpture.

"Ying Huanhuan, what have you done?!" Xiao Ming couldn't help but shout.

Beside the ice sculpture, Ying Huanhuan stood with her hands behind her back, kicked Lin Dong's ice sculpture, and said nonchalantly:

"Didn't Master tell me to use Cold Ice Qi to dispel his Desire Fire? Can't this be done? If not this way, am I supposed to do what you did and hug and cuddle?"

"Um, it can be undoed, but didn't you use a bit too much force? Don't accidentally freeze him and cause him any harm. If Qing Tan finds out, she'll fight you to the death." Xiao Ming rubbed his forehead. It seemed that this Rebellious Disciple had become increasingly disobedient since breaking through to the Reincarnation Realm, and had even started to tease him.

Xiao Ming waved his hand, releasing Lin Dong from the ice sculpture. At this moment, the latter trembled all over and looked around.

Stop looking, it's behind you.

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong paused, then slowly turned his head to see the four people clearly. His expression was quite complex.

"Xiao... Xiao... Ah!... Uncle Xiao! What are you doing here... Where's Qing... Tan..."

Lin Dong looked at the four figures in front of him, or more accurately, at Xiao Ming, who didn't seem to be much older than him, and exclaimed in disbelief.

'This kid, is he frozen solid?'

After a moment of helpless thought, Xiao Ming waved his hand again, and Lin Dong felt a warmth spread through his body, and his shivering stopped.

"So strong!"

This move shocked Lin Dong, but considering that Xiao Ming was able to snatch him from the Tomb Mansion's owner, Lin Dong felt that Xiao Ming's strength was to be expected.

"Wait, who was it that made me feel cold just now? It doesn't seem to be Uncle Xiao!" Lin Dong's eyes darted around, and he looked at Ying Huanhuan next to him. She glared at him, and he felt a suffocating sensation. He was so frightened that he immediately ran a few steps to Xiao Ming's side.

"Long time no see, Uncle Xiao! What are you doing here?"

Wiping away his cold sweat, Lin Dong chuckled dryly and asked, inwardly cursing.

Holy crap! Where did this terrifyingly powerful woman come from? Just being stared at by her makes me feel suffocated. Was she the one who froze me just now? Is she trying to kill me? No, I have to stay next to Uncle Xiao. For Qing Tan's sake, he shouldn't let anything happen to me.

"Ying Huanhuan, stop fooling around."

"Master, I was just teasing him. It's his fault for taking advantage of me by calling you 'big brother' before," Ying Huanhuan replied with a grin.

This is a combined 4000-word chapter, finally making up for the one I owed.
