Chapter 512: Chapter 237 "Jin’an, Don’t Breathe..."_4
Does this young Emperor Shitian really think he can kill her with three ways?
Lu Jin’an looked at the Buddha Beads in his hand and wondered, where did Fan Zhouxing get such Vast Righteous Qi?
And he even cultivated the Daoist Skill of the East Slope Confucian Academy?
Xiao Yinruo remained composed, her fingers clutching the ’Still Water Runs Deep’ a bit tighter: "Afraid?"
"Afraid?" Emperor Kongwu nodded slightly: "Indeed, a bit..."
"Then why don’t you make a move?" Xiao Yinruo calmly countered: "Are you waiting for something?"
Without waiting for Emperor Kongwu to respond, Xiao Yinruo was already pulling Lu Jin’an with a step forward, her Spiritual Power surging around her once more.
The snake on Emperor Kongwu’s shoulder was reviving. Though its exact purpose was unclear, it’s best not to linger and find out.
She walked gently in mid-air, her ink-black long hair smooth and silky as satin, swaying gently at her waist, her Sword Intent soaring to the sky.
Lu Jin’an turned to look at her, Xiao Yinruo’s side profile elegant and serene, and she tightened her grip on his hand a little more.
"Aunt Ruo," Lu Jin’an smiled: "Earlier you feared I might cut off an arm myself, now you want to sever my arm?"
Xiao Yinruo remained silent. Lu Jin’an continued: "Although living is better than losing an arm, and even with Great Success in Body Refinement it can regenerate, still..."
He abruptly changed his tone: "There are other ways too."
Xiao Yinruo walked slowly, and since this kid really had a way to find Emperor Kongwu previously, she patiently asked: "Tell me."
"They all want yang energy, so the Dao Palace Nine Stars, they’ll really like it, right?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yinruo simply smiled noncommittally: "If you could connect to the Dao Palace Nine Stars, why wait until now?"
"It’s a trump card..."
"Then use it." Xiao Yinruo continued walking: "Telling me this is just a waste of time."
Lu Jin’an looked towards Emperor Kongwu: "Why do you want my yang energy?"
Emperor Kongwu’s lips curled into a benevolent smile: "Yin-Yang balance, since you practice Body Cultivation, you should understand this reasoning."
Lu Jin’an of course understood that while Body Refining cultivated Extreme Yang Gang Power within the body, this Gang Power wasn’t purely yang energy.
All things carry Yin and embrace Yang, harmony is achieved through the fusion of their Qi, and Yin-Yang complementation is closest to the state of the Dao Palace Nine Stars.
Information about the Dragon Clan Altar flashed through Lu Jin’an’s mind, undoubtedly, the Fallen Dragon was a product born from death.
In this respect, it bore similarities to the Corpse Dragon and the corpse monk in his Yinming Space.
While Immortals aspire to Transcendence, they also deeply desire eternal life.
Eternal life, means more possibilities.
Thus, Emperor Kongwu was unwilling to pass away as fate decreed and attempted to gain a new life through the method of the Dragon Clan Altar.
Although this method required massive sacrifices akin to the Wuji Demon Sect before, eternal life was tempting enough to abandon some humanity.
Pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, lust...everyone harbors these thoughts.
These thoughts can’t be said to be wrong, but they must be controlled within a limit.
But Emperor Kongwu’s longing for eternal life exceeded her bounds, turning all of Fuyin City into her nourishment, even many monks, including those who passed here in nirvana, were ’picked’ by her.
Yet, the Buddhist Sect didn’t dare to make a big fuss.
Because the fall of the Wuji Demon Sect remains fresh in memory, and because the Wandao Sect looms over them like a mountainous burden they can’t surpass.
So Sumeru Mountain has always been cautious and discreet...
Lu Jin’an contemplated and continued: "I’m only in the Tribulation Crossing Realm, even if my vitality is more vigorous than other cultivators, it’s not enough for you both to share."
Emperor Kongwu smiled lightly: "I have the Esoteric Sect’s Union Skill here."
Lu Jin’an looked at the female dragon: "Can you?"
The female dragon twisted her somewhat stiff neck, her gaze scornful, as if to say ’are you underestimating the Dragon Clan?’
"Young friend." Emperor Kongwu spoke slowly: "It’s useless."
"I know." Lu Jin’an said: "I just wanted to ask if you want more yang energy."
"Want!" the female dragon immediately replied.
Emperor Kongwu smiled slightly: "The Dao Palace Nine Stars?"
Her voice paused, seemingly tinged with seductive intent: "Nine stars are too many, too dense...can’t bear it~"
Xiao Yinruo blocked in front of Lu Jin’an with a step, the Forget Love Dao Domain in front of her rippled silently.
A trace of killing intent flashed in her eyes.
Emperor Kongwu chuckled: "Are you his Daoist couple?"
"You’re filthy." Xiao Yinruo said expressionlessly: "Disgusting."
Emperor Kongwu squinted, the snake on her shoulder now agile enough to flick its tongue, her tone playful: "If I judge correctly, you’re still a virgin, yet he’s not...
Don’t you think he’s dirty?"
Under the Forget Love Dao Domain, Xiao Yinruo held her sword horizontally in front of her, the water-like Dao Domain reflecting her breathtaking beauty, her expression chilly: "It’s none of your business."
"So..." Emperor Kongwu sighed softly: "Everyone has their set of rules for themselves, a different set for others."
Lu Jin’an immediately retorted: "I’m not like you, who are indiscriminate, dead or alive, old or young, without concern, whether or not they’re poisoned, how dark you’ve become."
Xiao Yinruo frowned slightly, not quite understanding, but sensing that what he was saying wasn’t anything pleasant.
For Emperor Kongwu’s brows darkened.
"Look, look." Lu Jin’an immediately said: "Feel uncomfortable hearing the truth? You..."
Emperor Kongwu interrupted him: "So, if you don’t have more yang energy, I’ll take care of you properly later."
At this moment, Lu Jin’an smiled faintly: "Heavenly Testing Technique."
In front of her, Xiao Yinruo suddenly realized, the Heavenly Testing Technique could let cultivators borrow Heavenly Might to enhance themselves. Since the Heavenly Testing Technique could successfully be activated here, then the Dao Palace Nine Stars indeed has a chance.
