Until the Seas Dry Up and Rocks Crumble, the Heavens Grow Old and the Earth Wither

"Your sect's Cultivation Method?"

Ji Xueruo frowned. "Didn't the Lotus Sword Venerable only create the Lotus Birth Sword Technique? Although some people have reached the Void Realm by practicing the Xuanxiao Sect's Xuanxiao Cultivation Technique, as far as I know, the Xuanxiao Cultivation Technique is distributed according to cultivation level. You, a mere Spirit Platform Realm, have you thoroughly studied the latter half?"

Every Cultivation Method that has the potential to lead to the Void Glimpse Realm is extremely precious. Even the wealthy and powerful Xuanxiao Sect is reluctant to release it all at once, which shows how valuable it is.

You Su looked embarrassed and whispered, "It's Cultivation Method from that sect in Chuyun City..."

You Su described it with extreme restraint, mentioning how the two had struggled on the brink of life and death several times. At this moment, the sudden appearance of words like "dual cultivation" and "mutual pleasure" was truly out of place. It was as if You Su himself had only come for Miss Ji's body.

Ji Xueruo's aura hardened, and she sneered, "You Su! Is that all you can think about?!"

You Su had no words to express his suffering. He had been in this kind of sect since he was a child, and apart from swordsmanship, his only skill was dual cultivation. It could be said that all the skills and traditions of the Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Mandarin Sword Sect were inseparable from the two words "dual cultivation".

With life and death at stake, You Su disregarded his embarrassment. He straightened his back and explained solemnly:

"Miss Ji, I am not lying to you. The Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Mandarin Sword Sect was once an extremely prosperous sect, hailed as the Number One Sect Under the Divine Mountain, even surpassing many sects on the mountain itself. Later, it gradually declined due to changes in ideology, but you should know that the path of dual cultivation is by no means Evil Dao. I have long been familiar with my sect's Cultivation Method, and I am confident that with my understanding of Cultivation Method, I can definitely help us reach the threshold of the Void Glimpse Realm!"

"You have a high level of understanding of the path of dual cultivation?" Ji Xueruo glared at You Su, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

You Su's lips twitched, feeling the awkwardness of having a new, innocent girlfriend who, just as he was about to connect, would ask him, "Are you very experienced?"

Given the gravity of the matter, You Su decided to confess:

"This is the foundation of our sect's Cultivation Method, so of course I must study it diligently."

"Hmph!" Ji Xueruo said indifferently, "Then you are truly a diligent and eager-to-learn disciple!"

"If you're going to be thick-skinned, you have to be thick-skinned to the end, "You Su nodded and said.

"My master did indeed praise me like that; I didn't expect Miss Ji to notice as well."

"Brazen!"

Ji Xueruo couldn't understand how this blind man could have such an innocent and righteous face, so confidently admitting that he practiced this dual cultivation of lustful arts? Was it something to be proud of?

"Miss Ji, please don't be prejudiced by worldly views. No matter which path you choose, this spirit of diligent study should not be denied." You Su felt as if he were radiating golden light. "With the ability to make small wishes, our dual cultivation will surely be remarkably effective. Therefore, I sincerely invite Miss Ji to join me in exploring the Great Dao."

Men seem to have an innate shrewdness at this point. In order to carry the 'ritual' to the final step, they will try their best to deceive their 'opponent' and even put aside most of the face they usually care about.

Consistent with the principle of yin and yang complementing each other, when one party is reserved and shy during this emotional tug-of-war, the other party has to be shameless and persistent.

You Su's plan had clearly worked. Ji Xueruo's chest heaved, and although her expression was still angry, there was a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

To be honest, although Ji Xueruo is the patriarch of the snake clan, the snake clan's lineage has long been broken. Breaking into the middle stage of the Feather Transformation Realm is already the limit of the snake clan's lineage, so she simply cannot think of a way to make herself stronger to the Half-step Void Glimpse Realm.

This infinite time was nothing but an endless prison for her; she could never defeat Yu Zhen at the end of the cave, and thus could never escape this half-minute.

However, You Su does have the ability to help them defeat the powerful Yu Zhen, but the methods she uses are far too underhanded...

To approach the Void Glimpse Realm from the Spirit Platform Realm through dual cultivation... how many times would that require? Wouldn't that turn everyone into...

Ji Xueruo suppressed the curse that was about to escape her lips. She let out a long sigh and decided to put the matter aside for now.

"You said Yu Zhen transformed into Venerable Shenxi's body, so why did he only wish for the Perfection of the Feather Transformation Realm? Why didn't he dare to wish for the Void Glimpse Realm?"

"He can't reach the Void Glimpse Realm."

You Su spoke with great certainty, after all, when he fought with him just now, he had overestimated himself and made a wish to reach the lower realm of the Void Realm. The feeling of power he felt was not real at all, and the backlash it brought almost killed him.

"Hmm." Ji Xueruo nodded. "The Void Glimpse Realm is a true immortal realm, unlike other realms. To break through to the Void Glimpse Realm, one must find their Destiny Item and Comprehending the Dao. The power of will in this illusion is more like an initiation; it can infuse you to the perfection of the Feather Transformation Realm, but it cannot help you forge your own path. Therefore, without a Dao, Yu Zhen can only remain at the point just a hair's breadth away from the Void Glimpse Realm."

Comprehending the Dao at the Void Glimpse Realm is equivalent to the Heavenly Dao acknowledging your existence and bestowing upon you special authority. Therefore, each Void Glimpse Realm cultivator possesses their own unique abilities, such as Venerable Shenxi's wind.

Ji Xueruo's words were almost exactly what You Su had thought, and You Su said confidently:

"He only gained an early advantage; unable to become stronger, he will now face two Half-step Void Glimpse, and he has no chance of winning."

Ji Xueruo spat lightly:

"How dare you! Who said I wanted to cultivate with you?!"

?

You Su looked completely innocent; his statement hadn't even come close to those two words.

So, it's you who has those two words on your mind all the time, isn't it?

But Ji Xueruo's expression of shame and indignation hadn't lasted long before it became incredibly distorted. Her entire face looked as if it had been twisted by an invisible force, and with blood flowing from her seven orifices, she couldn't utter a single syllable!

You Su instantly understood the reason: this was the backlash from the wish to Time Reversal!

Like You Su, who briefly became a cultivator in the lower realm of the Void Realm, once the immense backlash arrives, this illusion will not allow you to make a sound!

Therefore, Yu Zhen could not imitate them at all, because he was alone, and the backlash from Time Reversal would surely kill him.

But You Su and Ji Xueruo are different; they will take turns saving each other until they see the dawn of victory!

"Rewind time to fifteen minutes ago!" You Su roared to the sky.

The two figures visibly retreated rapidly, and the position changed back to You Su kneeling on the ground, with Ji Xueruo lying in his arms.

This time, she slowly opened her eyes, her gaze filled with lingering fear. Her mind hadn't yet forgotten the excruciating pain she had just experienced, and her body was still trembling slightly.

You Su tenderly embraced her head.

"It's okay, it's okay... we won't die."

Ji Xueruo's face was buried in You Su's chest and abdomen. The boy had a faint fragrance, which reminded her of a snow-covered pine tree in winter, somewhat cold, yet unexpectedly upright and reliable.

Being held like this... doesn't feel so bad?

Perhaps it was because Ji Xueruo knew that the only path before her was to learn the dual cultivation Cultivation Method of the You Su Sect; or perhaps it was because, in the face of imminent disaster, the young man's embrace gave her a sense of tenderness...

After all, we'd already done it once, so it was just a matter of doing it a few more times... Besides, this is an illusion, so let's just treat it as a dream... Time flows backwards infinitely here, and once we get out, only a moment might have passed in the real world. So whatever happens here will have absolutely no connection to reality...

Her guard finally lowered a little, and she murmured softly:

"Won't Yu Zhen come over?"

You Su shouted to the sky, "Yu Zhen and the dog are not to appear for a quarter of an hour!"

"Are you crazy! Why are you making such a huge wish again!"

You Su smiled calmly, "You wished to rewind two quarters of an hour, but the backlash appeared after one quarter of an hour. My wish was to rewind one quarter of an hour, which is only half of yours. So if I make another grand wish, the backlash probably won't be any faster than one quarter of an hour."

"You're quite clever... But can your sect's lewd technique really guarantee reaching that level...?"

Her tone wasn't like a question, but rather like she was making a final confirmation.

"Miss Ji, please believe me, otherwise how could my junior sister have broken through from the Channel Opening Realm to the Spirit Platform Realm in just one dual cultivation session?"

You Su used examples and rhetorical questions to prove that his own Cultivation Method were indeed profound and extensive.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his waist; someone was pinching his soft flesh tightly.

"Shut up! Don't mention Lingruo!"

Ji Xueruo glared at You Su with a fierce yet adorable expression, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

She finally overcame all her psychological barriers and decided to give it a try, and this idiot actually brought up her sister's name at a time like this!

Lingruo, don't be afraid, your sister is only trying to save your dao companion...

If he doesn't practice dual cultivation with me, then you'll never see him again...

Besides, this is a dream, it doesn't count...

Ji Xueruo no longer acted like a little girl; she seemed to have transformed back into the proud and powerful snake Empress.

"Our previous agreement still stands. After we leave, we will never see each other again! All of this is to thwart the conspiracy at Jade Ring Pool!"

You Su looked up blankly, feeling somewhat lost.

After everything that followed, could he really remain unfazed and keep his promise not to see her again?

He nodded slowly. "Okay."

Seeing You Su's dejected expression, Ji Xueruo felt a sudden tightness in her heart. She quickly shook her head, trying to suppress the inappropriate feelings that had arisen within her.

She straightened up, gently loosened the ribbon binding her hair, and her dark hair slid down like water, falling onto You Su's face.

Along with it came a robe exuding the delicate fragrance of a young girl.

Ji Xueruo turned her head shyly, gently biting her red lips, her hands nervously clasped together in front of her abdomen.

Teach me...

Ji Xueruo slowly opened her eyes.

The first attempt at dual cultivation did not go smoothly; a quarter of an hour seemed too short for this Blood Qi young man.

As the quarter-hour mark was about to end, You Su still hadn't succeeded in injecting his 'Snake Venom' into Ji Xueruo's body.

Ji Xueruo somewhat ashamed and indignant. Although her body no longer felt any abnormality, she still felt that if they hadn't completed the dual cultivation, wouldn't it have been a waste of a quarter of an hour of his pleasure...?

"Are you trying to show off how great you are?"

Ji Xueruo was blunt. She had read in books that many men used the length of time they lasted to demonstrate their abilities, but judging solely by time was extremely superficial.

"Um..." You Su said helplessly, "Miss Ji, I hope you understand that for dual cultivation to achieve the best results, both parties need to be fully committed. As long as they are in harmony, a quarter of an hour is perfectly normal. At this time, I will not deliberately control myself, and Miss Ji, please do not resist your own reactions."

"So you mean it's my fault for being useless and preventing you from getting out?" Ji Xueruo gritted her teeth in hatred. What difference was there between You Su's words and saying that she had no allure whatsoever?!

"I absolutely did not mean that! Miss Ji, follow the Mnemonic, relax, don't resist, but don't be like a block of wood either... Let's try again..."

"Oh!"

You Su and Ji Xueruo are getting along very well.

Time would rewind to fifteen minutes earlier, but You Su's bodies would remember the feeling after the enhancement.

You Su and Ji Xueruo made a wish together—to raise their cultivation level back to the state they had reached when they finished their dual cultivation. This level of progress was absolutely permissible in this illusionary realm.

In other words, the power of wishes in this illusion is a pool of water, and the person making the wish is a bowl. How much water the bowl can hold depends on its size, and the size of the bowl depends on the wisher's perception of power.

Yu Zhen said, this path to becoming stronger requires taking it one step at a time.

A small bowl can't hold too much water, and it can't suddenly become a big bowl. Through continuous dual cultivation, You Su gradually improved their understanding of cultivation and their bodies, and their bowls gradually grew bigger, so they could hold more and more water.

By repeating this process, they eventually reach the state they desire.

"Miss Ji... you really are very talented." You Su said, panting heavily.

"I'm the Demon Race's undisputed prodigy! Naturally... um... I'm good at everything! Go easy on me..."

Ji Xueruo supported You Su's waist, as if to help him save energy.

"Why? Why isn't it working? I've tried so many times..."

Ji Xueruo somewhat lost in thought. They had strived through so many reincarnations, so why had their cultivation suddenly stagnated?

You Su silently shook his head. "I don't know the reason either."

"You!" Ji Xueruo angrily punched You Su. "If your Cultivation Method wasn't working, why did you lie to me? What are you really up to?!"

You Su was speechless when asked. After realizing that they had made no progress, they tried many more times without success, which made the originally confident You Su begin to doubt the mystery of the Joyous Union Technique.

After all, the Void Glimpse Realm of cultivating the Joyous Union Technique dates back to a very, very long time ago. Heaven, earth, and humanity are all changing, and perhaps this Cultivation Method is no longer suitable for the present era.

"This is my fault... I will apologize to Miss Ji, but the most urgent thing is to find another good solution." You Su said with deep remorse.

"What other good ideas do you have?!"

Ji Xueruo acted like a naive young girl who had been deceived, wishing she could tear You Su to pieces.

You Su was stunned for a moment, then secretly shook his head. How could someone of his status possibly possess two Cultivation Method that could reach the Void Glimpse Realm?

"Meeting you was truly a trial for me Ji Xueruo."

Looking at You Su's handsome profile, Ji Xueruo's anger gradually subsided.

She sighed softly, then her expression suddenly hardened. She pushed You Su to the ground, straddled him, and gripped his lower back tightly, pressing her fingertips against his chest.

"Don't act like a coward! If you're at your wit's end, then go all the way down this path! Try again!"

The reason for this long period of stagnation was simply the culmination of accumulated experience before advancing from the Lingtai stage to the Ningshui stage...

Ji Xueruo opened her eyes, she habitually began to take off her black dress.

"Let's take a break..."

You Su called out to her, and she leaned against the stone wall like a helpless child.

Ji Xueruo sat cross-legged not far from him, neither distant nor intimate.

She raised an eyebrow slightly. "Are all men so easily bored?"

You Su sighed, once again marveling at the racial gifts of the snake race.

Snakes are inherently lustful...

It wasn't that he was tired of this endlessly addictive experience, but rather that he was beginning to feel his limits. Forcing himself to continue would only lower the quality of their dual cultivation.

At first, he felt he was a giant ship, while Ji Xueruo was just a small stream. But as his cultivation increased, she became a whirlpool in the center of the sea, and the once-giant ship now seemed like a tiny boat...

The benefits of increased cultivation level for men and women in this matter will vary greatly as their cultivation level increases, due to the differences in their physical structures.

In order to keep up with Ji Xueruo's pace and avoid surrendering too quickly, You Su decided to use the most suitable divine skill given to him by the Book Mountain Pavilion - <Sun Yang Sword Nurturing Art>.

Ji Xueruo hugged her bent knees, rested her head on them, and looked at You Su's face with great interest as she meditated.

She was now close to the Feather Transformation Realm, and she could see at a glance that You Su's Mystic Qi was faintly gathering downwards. As a seasoned warrior, she naturally understood what kind of battle preparations You Su was making.

"That's not enough?"

You Su's lips twitched, and she said defiantly:

"Don't be so hasty. Try not to beg for mercy later."

"I really hope your abilities are as great as your boasting."

Ji Xueruo saw that You Su's livid face was quite pleased, and he was rhythmically tapping his feet. However, seeing You Su's hard work, she also felt a warm breeze in her heart.

"Hey, how much longer do we need to build up our momentum?"

"It might take a few more times, Miss Ji, are you impatient?"

"Hmph, I don't have a fetish for being pricked with needles."

Ji Xueruo pinched her chin, closed her eyes, and reveled in the pleasure of mocking You Su. She knew very well that ridiculing men in this area would be a devastating blow to them.

But when she opened her eyes again, her pupils instantly constricted to the size of beans!

A dim light filled the dark cave, and the shadow of a huge creature vaguely obscured half of her face...

"W-What are you going to do?!"

Ji Xueruo used her hands to support herself as she slowly backed away.

"Hmph! My swordsmanship is now mastered; I will slay any dragon that dares to challenge me! Miss Ji, please accept my sword strike!"

You Su placed his hands on his waist, thrust his hips forward, and brandished his sword, resembling a hermit who had mastered divine skills emerging from the mountains.

Ji Xueruo buried her head in You Su's neck, You Su's hands caressed her naked, beautiful back.

"How many more times do you think we need to do it?" Ji Xueruo blinked.

"Miss Ji is getting tired of this?"

In truth, the word "boredom" was completely irrelevant, as the two of them didn't spend all their time on dual cultivation. No matter how good it was, it would become dull and tedious if it were the only thing in your life. So the two of them would often take a break and chat to relieve boredom. Ji Xueruo knowledgeable, You Su had a rich imagination, so their conversations were always interesting and never boring.

"I told you not to call me Miss Ji anymore..." Ji Xueruo gently punched You Su's chest.

"What's her name?" You Su's lips curled into a smile. "Is she called the Clan Chief? Or the Serpent Clan Empress?"

Ji Lingruo, far away at the port preparing for the ferry, felt as if she had been deliberately forgotten by some people...

Ji Xueruo punched him harder in embarrassment and anger, "Don't push your luck! Just call me Xue Ruo..."

"Okay." You Su affectionately ruffled Ji Xueruo's hair at the back. "What if it takes a very long time? Will Xue Ruo get annoyed?"

Ji Xueruo her head in her loose hair and replied in a voice barely audible:

"How long? Until the Seas Dry Up and Rocks Crumble and the rocks crumble, until the heavens and earth grow old? You shouldn't be asking me that; you should be asking whether the illusion of Tibet can last until that day..."

The girl's appearance remained unchanged through countless reincarnations, yet she felt she had already spent a hundred years with this boy. To her proud self, these words were nothing short of a naked declaration of love.

You Su hugged her even tighter, as if trying to melt her into his own body...

I haven't created the Full Subscription Group yet. I'll create it after I finish writing the extra chapters, so please be patient. You can also join the regular group first!
