Although Gong Chenying did not understand what Li Yan meant, she still probed her dantian with her divine sense as he had said. This investigation left her somewhat stunned.
Gong Chenying was shocked to find that her magical power had actually improved again. And she had a feeling that she seemed to have some indescribable feeling about the fire-system power.
She had been diligently cultivating the "Red Lotus Incinerating Fire Scripture" in recent years, hoping to welcome the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation through continuous improvement in her comprehension. But she had only improved her magical power, and had not had any further enlightenment about the fire-system power for a long time.
In fact, she had also noticed that her magical power was a little abnormal in her dream. But after the impact of the peaks and valleys last night, Gong Chenying could no longer distinguish what kind of abnormality it was. Her whole person was in a dream-like state.
"This... what's going on?"
After withdrawing her divine sense, Gong Chenying looked at Li Yan in a daze. For a moment, Li Yan's eyes also flashed with light. He could see that Gong Chenying was genuinely bewildered.
Gradually, Li Yan found that Gong Chenying's expression had changed, and a blush slowly appeared on her face again. And when she looked at him, her gaze also became somewhat shy and annoyed.
'Stable app that has been running for many years, comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact. It's used by old bookworms.'
analyzing quickly in his heart, corresponding what Gong Chenying had said with the situation in his own body. Gradually, he had some conjectures.
"Heaven and earth were originally chaos, then divided into yin and yang, the two primary forces, the three talents, the four symbols, the five elements, the six harmonies, the seven stars, the eight trigrams, and the nine palaces. These then formed the most profound rules of heaven and earth."
"And the magical arts we cultivate are often one or more branches of them. Repulsion and fusion are both possible. But unfortunately, my cultivation is too low, and I still cannot understand these things."
"So, as for the three talents spirit root that master mentioned, I also did not feel anything special about it..."
After thinking about Li Yan's words, Gong Chenying also gave her own conjectures and views.
A strange light suddenly flashed in Li Yan's eyes, and then he looked at Gong Chenying.
"That is to say, we don't need dual cultivation techniques to improve our cultivation. We can just try again and we'll know..."
When Gong Chenying heard this, the blush that had just disappeared a moment ago immediately rose from her neck again.
"You..."
Amidst Li Yan's laughter, he scooped up Gong Chenying. Those two rounded, long legs, even when held by a man of Li Yan's stature, still dragged on the ground.
"No... no, it's... it's still daytime... mmmph..."
Before Gong Chenying could finish her words, her ruby lips were invaded by a fiery tongue. She could only make muffled sounds. Then, her eyes slowly lost focus and fell into a state of confusion.
Her tongue, which had been a little clumsy last night, had now become nimble and was responding.
In fact, her body was still a little sore and uncomfortable. But for someone with Gong Chenying's stubborn personality, she was unwilling to say it out loud. So after an hour, she became the one on top...
Five days later, Li Yan and Gong Chenying simultaneously announced that they were entering seclusion. This made many people feel a little strange about this newlywed Daoist couple.
After Li Yan and Gong Chenying had relations for the second time, they immediately checked their own bodies and felt that their guess might have been a bit off. The theory of the three talents and five elements had not brought them any new strange changes.
With Gong Chenying's face as red as a pink peach, the two discussed for a while and felt that it was probably only the first time, because Gong Chenying was still a virgin of extreme yin at that time, that some strange effects had appeared.
Otherwise, there was no explanation for why both of them had a different feeling towards the three systems of power after the first time, and this had not happened again in their subsequent lovemaking.
In the following days, Li Yan and Gong Chenying were immersed in the joy of their new marriage, so they temporarily put this matter aside.
But five days later, Li Yan was the first to discover that the inexplicable feeling he had towards the three systems of power was gradually fading. After asking Gong Chenying, he received the same answer.
The two of them immediately knew that they might be about to miss an opportunity. That unknown insight would disappear and would not be retained for long.
So, they immediately chose to enter seclusion at the same time to capture and comprehend that hard-won inexplicable feeling.
Regarding the two's sudden decision, although Gong Shanhe and the others felt it was a bit sudden.
But cultivators were always sensing the will of heaven. It was hard to say when they would choose to enter seclusion. This was not something to be too surprised about.
But no one had expected that the two of them would be in seclusion for year after year. The figures of the two of them never appeared before the Tianli Clan members again.
The "Qing A Wang" Manor also gradually became less of a topic of conversation among the clan members as the two remained in seclusion. The matter of Li Yan and Gong Chenying was mentioned less and less.
Seven years later, in the backyard of the "Qing A Wang" Manor, in a secret room within the towering mountain, strong fluctuations of magical power suddenly came out.
Then, what followed was a unique phenomenon between heaven and earth. Dark clouds churned in the sky, and in an instant, it was already filled with lightning and thunder, instantly covering a radius of several hundred li of the Tianli Clan.
The Fourth Elder, who was on duty in the Heavenly Dawn Hall, just swept his divine sense lightly and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation!"
After his divine sense swept over, he was shocked to find that the center of the heavenly tribulation was the back mountain of the "Qing A Wang" Manor. A graceful figure had already flown to the top of the mountain.
"It's A Ying!"
He instantly knew who was forming their Nascent Soul. Without the slightest hesitation, he quickly sent out a series of voice transmissions to notify everyone who was in seclusion.
In the end, even the First Elder came out of seclusion. Although the First Elder's injuries had not fully recovered in these years, he had already recovered seventy to eighty percent. It was no problem for him to use eighty percent of his combat power.
Gong Shanhe even rushed directly into the sky, his expression a mixture of surprise and joy...
One day later, Gong Chenying of the Tianli Clan had successfully formed her Nascent Soul. With the help of that uncertain feeling from her wedding, she had finally broken through her state of mind and welcomed the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation. And after a bitter struggle, she had successfully passed the tribulation, covered in scars.
It was also fortunate that when she and Li Yan had entered seclusion, they had considered that they might affect each other and had chosen to enter seclusion separately. And she had also chosen to undergo the tribulation on the mountain top. Otherwise, it would have definitely affected Li Yan's seclusion.
After successfully forming her Nascent Soul, Gong Chenying only made a brief appearance. First, she confirmed that the seclusion place where Li Yan was located was not affected, and only then did she feel relieved.
Then she met with Gong Shanhe and the First Elder and the others, said a few simple words, and then hurriedly entered seclusion again to stabilize her realm.
This made Gong Shanhe, the Third Elder, and the others feel both emotional and surprised, and they also sighed to themselves. After reaching the Nascent Soul realm, their cultivation and advancement had become extremely difficult.
For decades, or even hundreds of years, although they had been cultivating diligently, they were still stuck at a small realm and unable to move. This made them think of themselves, and they wondered when they could break through again...
Four years later, when Gong Chenying came out of seclusion again, her realm had already stabilized. And her combat power, under Gong Shanhe's personal testing, could already contend with a Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
At this time, Gong Chenying's combat power was even a little stronger than the Fifth and Sixth Elders. This should be related to the "Red Lotus Incinerating Fire Scripture" of the "Red Whisk Temple" that she had learned.
After this cultivation method was combined with the "Qiongqi Purgatory Art," Gong Chenying finally revealed her brilliance. After cultivating two top-tier cultivation methods, the powerful side of dual dharma-body cultivation was finally revealed.
And Gong Chenying's "Qiongqi Purgatory Art" had also broken through to the initial stage of the sixth level.
After coming out of seclusion, Gong Chenying found that besides Li Yan who was still in seclusion, her master Hong Yin had not come out either. Hong Yin had successfully performed the body seizure four months after that seclusion.
After she succeeded in the body seizure, she had temporarily come out of seclusion, but saw that Gong Chenying had entered seclusion again. She also immediately chose to continue her seclusion.
She had only met with the Third Elder briefly, gave a few instructions, and did not meet anyone else.
But later, when the First Elder asked about Hong Yin's body seizure situation, the Third Elder's expression was a bit strange as she replied that everything was fine with Hong Yin.
But in her mind, a picture emerged. Hong Yin's cold voice, and that appearance, she really felt a little strange...
In a secret room, Li Yan was sitting cross-legged. At this time, on the surface of his body, streaks of silver light were constantly flashing. And from within his body, a rumbling sound could be heard. It was the sound of a dragon's roar and a tiger's howl produced when the yin and yang of the magical power in his body converged.
Time rewinded. In this seclusion, he had been trying hard to capture that indescribable feeling. Time for a cultivator was like a fleeting moment, gone in a flash.
It was unknown how long had passed, maybe a year, maybe several years. Li Yan was still unable to accurately capture that indescribable feeling.
But the wood, earth, and fire system spiritual power in his body still continued to circulate with the five elements of the True Scripture of Gui Water. Although these three types of attribute spiritual power still maintained a certain activity, they also gradually tended towards a state of five elements balance.
Li Yan, in his cultivation, subconsciously sensed the occurrence of this phenomenon. So he woke up at that time.
He briefly sensed that Gong Chenying's aura was still there, still in another secret room. Then he did not probe carefully and once again sent his divine sense into his own body.
In the several years of seclusion, in capturing and comprehending that seemingly non-existent feeling, Li Yan was not without gains.
He found that as his five elements tended towards balance, his comprehension of the water and metal systems had both improved, but it was not the kind of enlightenment. His comprehension of the fire system, however, felt average.
