Seeing Mo Lin's pained expression, his life force seemingly draining away, an unprecedented anxiety washed over Yun Yun.
Her delicate brows furrowed, and after a moment of contemplation, she gritted her teeth, seemingly having made a decision.
She flickered to Mo Lin's side, sat down cross-legged, and slowly extended her jade-like hands, gently placing them on Mo Lin's back, which felt like a scorching furnace.
However, the instant her palms touched Mo Lin's skin, something unexpected happened!
Mo Lin, who had been curled up and unconscious, seemed to sense the cool, comfortable touch with a familiar aura coming from behind him, and his body instinctively reacted.
Unconsciously, he twisted his body with extreme difficulty, like a young beast seeking refuge, actively leaning back. His entire back pressed tightly against Yun Yun's embrace, and his head tilted back, weakly resting on Yun Yun's soft and springy chest. His cheek even unconsciously nuzzled against the soft area, letting out a muffled, contented murmur.
"Uh..." Yun Yun froze instantly! Her pretty face flushed "shua" with a sudden redness, like a ripe apple, extending all the way to her earlobes and neck.
She never would have imagined that Mo Lin, while unconscious, would be so... so "clingy"!
This intimate contact far exceeded her acceptable limits.
She instinctively wanted to push him away, but upon touching his scorching skin and feeling his weak, erratic life force, the hand that was about to push him stopped abruptly.
"He... he's just unconscious, this is an unconscious action... saving him is the priority..." Yun Yun desperately told herself, forcefully suppressing the shame and that strange flutter in her heart.
She took a deep breath, trying to ignore the astonishing sensation from her chest and the young man's burning breath, and focused her mind inward.
Her vast and pure wind-attribute Dou Huang Fighting Energy, like a gentle stream, slowly flowed into Mo Lin's meridians, attempting to stabilize his chaotic aura first.
However, the moment her Fighting Energy entered, it was met with strong resistance!
That scorching energy was extremely domineering, and that icy energy was terrifyingly pure. Her wind-attribute Fighting Energy struggled to harmonize, instead showing a tendency to exacerbate the conflict!
"No! His energy attributes are too extreme! My Fighting Energy won't be effective and might even harm him!" Yun Yun hurriedly withdrew her Fighting Energy, her beautiful eyes filled with solemnity and helplessness.
Looking at the young man's pained expression in her arms, she was extremely anxious but powerless.
At this critical moment, Yun Yun's gaze inadvertently swept over Mo Lin's tightly clenched fists due to pain, and the clearly separated yet subtly connected ice and fire energies within his body, as if they were about to merge into a single origin... A bold, almost absurd thought flashed through her mind like lightning!
"Extreme Ice... Extreme Fire? No, this fire isn't extreme, but that ice coldness... That's it! Could the technique he's cultivating be related to Yin Yang harmony?
Is he trying to forcibly merge these two extreme energies and is suffering a backlash?" As a Dou Huang, Yun Yun had extensive knowledge and instantly thought of a possibility.
She recalled Mo Lin's peculiar ice-attribute abilities displayed earlier, and the ice-fire energies within him currently attempting to collide and merge... a risky idea emerged.
"Since external harmonization is impossible, perhaps... I can guide them to coexist internally?" A determined glint flashed in Yun Yun's eyes.
She placed her jade-like hands on Mo Lin's back again, but this time, she no longer injected her own Fighting Energy. Instead, she condensed her powerful spiritual force into threads, carefully probing into Mo Lin's chaotic meridians, acting like the most precise guide, and began to attempt to guide the two violent energies.
Her spiritual force gently wrapped around a tiny stream of scorching energy, guiding it towards another relatively peaceful stream of icy energy.
This process was extremely dangerous; a slight misstep could trigger a more violent explosion.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on Yun Yun's smooth forehead as she concentrated, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.
Miraculously, under her careful guidance, the two energies, which were originally like fire and water, did not explode immediately upon contact, despite still repelling each other. Instead, a strange annihilation and rebirth occurred.
A wisp of incredibly weak, yet vibrant and life-filled, strange energy was born in the gap of annihilation!
This wisp of energy was pure, balanced, and peaceful, as if containing the mysteries of the universe's creation!
"Yin and Yang complement each other, giving birth to all things... This... Is this the legendary..." Yun Yun's heart was churning like a stormy sea; she seemed to have touched the edge of a supreme law.
She suppressed her shock and continued to carefully guide more ice-fire energy into this dangerous "contact."
As wisps of new energy were generated, the violent conflict within Mo Lin's body began to slowly subside.
Although this new energy was weak, it seemed to possess a magical calming and harmonizing effect. Wherever it passed, damaged meridians were nourished and repaired, and the violent energies gradually became docile.
Mo Lin's body temperature began to decrease, his painfully curled-up body slowly relaxed, and his breathing became steady and long. He even became more "comfortable" in her embrace, his cheek unconsciously nuzzling into the softness of her chest for a more comfortable position.
Yun Yun: "..."
The blush on her pretty face had just faded slightly, and now it surged back, accompanied by a helpless wry smile. This guy, even unconscious, didn't forget to take advantage!
But she couldn't afford to dwell on that now, as she had also gained immense benefits from this guiding process.
Although most of the wisps of newly generated Yin Yang energy were integrated into Mo Lin's body, the faint aura that leaked out, when absorbed into her body, actually caused her long-stagnant cultivation bottleneck to show signs of loosening! This was simply unbelievable!
Time quietly slipped away amidst the tense guidance.
After an unknown period, as the sky began to turn pale, the ice-fire energies within Mo Lin finally reached a fragile balance. Most of the violent energy was harmonized and absorbed by the new energy.
His complexion returned to normal, his aura was steady, and even more solid and powerful than before. He had clearly benefited from the disaster, his cultivation having advanced further, directly breaking through to the Peak Five-Star Dou Shi!
Yun Yun slowly withdrew her spiritual force, letting out a long sigh of relief. Her beautiful face showed a hint of fatigue, but more so, an ineffable understanding and shock.
She looked down at the young man sleeping soundly in her arms, even with a faint smile of contentment on his lips, her gaze incredibly complex.
This mysterious young man, how many secrets did he hide within him?
