Having a Child

"We're only in a cooperative relationship! We can't be considered partners!"

Finally Medusa broke the silence with a slight purse of her rosy lips.

Even partners can only become partners after the cooperation ends. Medusa is indeed an extremely cold-blooded person, ruthless and killing people like chickens, but once she cares about someone, she will be loyal to them until death.

She admitted that she was moved. This young man was not only handsome, but also a righteous and trustworthy gentleman who kept his promises. He had also made such amazing achievements in cultivation and alchemy. More importantly, he had helped her evolve and also helped the Snake-People Tribe.

Therefore, she wanted to repay the favor. Only in this way would she not owe him anything, and would she not be seen as repaying a debt of gratitude by offering herself to him.

Because she wanted a relationship free from self-interest, not one entangled in financial matters, which might lead him to mistakenly believe she was a vain woman.

She is a noble and proud queen, not one of those lowly prostitutes.

'Ha! Stubborn woman!'

Lin Qing also noticed that while the rest of this alluring and aloof snake woman's body was soft, her mouth was hard.

She's already considered him a friend, yet she's still so arrogant.

"I now possess two souls within one body, do you have a way to resolve this?"

"If it were a normal dual-soul body, a Tier 6 Spirit-Merging Pill would suffice. However, your evolution has encountered a slight mishap; the Heaven-Swallowing Python's soul has been strengthened by the Lightning Tribulation. Therefore, there are currently three solutions. The first is to have a child, making the Seven-Colored Sky-Devouring Python the child's companion spirit beast. The second is to extract one of the souls, but it must be Heaven Realm Soul, otherwise it will damage the soul. However, I am currently at the Spirit Realm Perfection, so I cannot do this at the moment. You also cannot afford to hire a powerhouse whose soul has reached the Heaven Realm, because Heaven Realm Soul are basically Dou Sheng or Tier 9 Alchemist. The third is to accept a dual-soul body."

Lin Qing told Medusa everything he knew, and the choice was entirely up to her.

"So, the only solution is to have a child? Impossible, I have no plans to become a mother right now!"

Hearing Lin Qing's method, Medusa was also a bit overwhelmed. Having a child requires mating with a man, and even if it were with the man in front of her, it would be too early for her. He hadn't even married her yet, so it was impossible for her to have a child with him.

"Then forget it. Let's wait a few more years until I break through to the Heaven Realm!"

Anyway, there's more than one way, and he prefers to extract her soul and then use the Revolving Wheel Pill to recreate a body for her.

When the agreed-upon time expires, it's up to her whether she stays or leaves, as long as Xiaocai stays.

Although Medusa was alluring, elegant, and noble, with a perfect figure, he still preferred Xiaocai because Xiaocai was a blank canvas, and he could mold her into whatever shape he wanted.

Upon hearing this, Medusa ignored Lin Qing and a powerful light burst forth from her body. Queen Medusa's body slowly shrank, eventually transforming into Seven-Colored Little Snake, and her original black robe instantly fell to the ground.

As soon as the Heaven-Swallowing Python appeared, it flicked its tail and came right in front of Lin Qing.

Lin Qing gently stroked Xiaocai's little head and said earnestly:

"Keep an eye on my surroundings! Don't let anyone disturb me!"

Xiaocai nodded her little head slightly and hissed in response, indicating that she understood.

After giving his instructions, Lin Qing began to study the Mountain-Opening Seal.

Unlike the Heaven-Burning Seal, which relies entirely on hand Dou Qi to condense, the Mountain-Opening Seal requires opening three specific meridians.

However, let's use the Ancestral Stone to deduce it first! Presumably, we should be able to deduce the original High Earth Grade to the Quasi-Heaven Grade in the future!

By casting aside his emotions, Lin Qing's mind gradually calmed down, and after a moment, he entered the spiritual space within the Ancestral Stone.

In the dark mental space, Lin Qing's figure reappeared, and with his appearance, several beams of light also appeared, which were the afterimages left behind by him when he used the Ancestral Stone to deduce Dou Technique several times before.

However, this time he didn't focus his gaze on those figures, but instead stared intently at the last slowly appearing light and shadow.

Finally, amidst a ripple, the light and shadow took shape.

As Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief, he also thought to himself:

'It seems I need to find an opportunity to repair the Ancestral Stone and awaken Yan as soon as possible! That way, I can leave these matters to him!'

He hadn't repaired the Ancestral Stone Spirit before because he had enough Ancestral Stone and not enough time.

Now, with more and more things to deduce, it is obvious that deduce using the Ancestral Stone without the Ancestral Stone Spirit is somewhat slow.

As the light and shadow took shape, one meridian after another appeared, finally forming a somewhat complex hand seal.

"It seems that the power is increased and the consumption of Dou Qi is reduced by opening up two more meridians, and the hand seals have also been simplified!"

After observing the projection of light and shadow, Lin Qing quickly focused his mind and arrived near the meridians that needed to be opened!

"Damn, what's going on? These five meridians are actually open! There's no need to open them at all."

Lin Qing was a little confused!

'System, what's going on?'

He had only asked casually, as the system rarely answered his questions, but this time the system unusually offered an explanation!

[This is related to the host's constitution! The possessor of the Sacred Body has all eight extraordinary meridians and hundreds of acupoints, and thousands of meridians are open!]

'So that's how it is! That's an advantage; it saves me some time! I remember Xiao Yan spent a month just to clear three paths, and I don't know how long it will take me to clear these five!'

After pondering for a while, Lin Qing began to practice his Dou Technique by following the hand seals.

Lin Qing smiled slightly, forming a rather strange hand seal in front of him with his right hand. He pushed the hand seal forward, but without any Dou Qi to activate it, it was just a show. However, he knew that it wouldn't be long before the power emitted by this hand seal would shock even him.

"Mountain-Opening Seal!"

With a low shout, a strong light surged from Lin Qing's palm, and as the light appeared, his palm suddenly pushed forward.

However, the moment the hand moved, the intense light vanished like a fleeting flower, and the handprint that was swung out only stirred up a slight gust of wind.

"Puff!"

A small crater appeared in the ground in front of Lin Qing.

Looking at the crater in the ground, Lin Qing shook his head helplessly and plopped down on the boulder.

He was panting heavily; the energy required to activate the Mountain-Opening Seal was simply too great, so much so that even he couldn't use it continuously.

The difficulty of cultivating this Dou Technique was far greater than he had imagined. To unleash the full power of the Mountain-Opening Seal, the circulation of Dou Qi within his body and the formation of the hand seal had to be completed in the same instant.

Otherwise, as just now, the energy will dissipate rapidly due to poor coordination as soon as it appears, eventually causing its power to drop to a pitiful level.

"Again!"

Lin Qing adjusted his breathing, stood up, and began forming hand seals again.

Cultivating this kind of hand seal Dou Technique is nothing more than a matter of time to hone one's skills and then finding that perfect moment.
