Yafei's Variant Bloodline
🕑 Added 2023-08-09 11:14:13 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 146 ---
"Fei?"
"Where are you? Fei Darling?"
Baek Ain's voice echoed throughout a dense forest of tall willow trees with countless blue leaves. It was a bizarre place to see as the tree sizes weren't normal, but this was a Cultivation World.
Even if an elephant casually flew past Baek Ain, he wouldn't find it weird anymore.
As Baek Ain delved deep into the forest, he frowned slightly because this place was too quiet. The Nine Serene Mountain Range is the home of Magical Beasts, which means something like this shouldn't happen.
Baek Ain stopped and suddenly face-palmed himself. "Tsk, I'm such a fool. I've been running in a circle because of the illusion array."
Due to his casualness and confidence, Baek Ain barely used his sharp sense of the surroundings and only used his eyes. And to be fair, the side effect of his 1st Stigmata is becoming more annoying as time passes.
Superbia's perks provoked Baek Ain's pride to increase by several folds, making him a fool. "Why would I need to be wary? Nothing in this area could injure him." This line is deeply ingrained because of the Stigmata.
It was such a massive headache, but Baek Ain suppressed it one way or another. At least the extreme power boost compensates for it.
Baek Ain closed his eyes and grabbed the nearest willow tree, plucking its leaves. "Release." He said, breaking the illusion.
Kacha!
The surrounding area cracked like a broken mirror and crumbled quickly, revealing two quiet and giant willow trees encircled by a blue lake.
Between the tree was a comfortable-looking hammock made with silver threads. A golden-haired beauty sleeps quietly on it, snoring lightly and looking very cute.
Baek Ain smiled, noticing Yafei was cultivating her mental energy in the dream world. It's an unorthodox way to train, but evidently effective and aligned very well with her overall talents.
He jumped to Yafei's side, pinching her little nose gently.
"Hmm?" Yafei furrowed her brows and awoke from her meditation.
She opened her eyes slowly, revealing those beautiful blue gems.
She pouted her cherry-colored lips and complained, "I was about to break through, you know?"
Baek Ain laughed and replied, "My bad."
"I couldn't resist this cute sleeping beauty in the hammock."
Yafei scoffed at his flirting technique. Of course, she felt happy inside when Baek Ain did this.
"So, why are you searching for me? Even my array couldn't stop you."
Baek Ain wanted to tell her the array wasn't strong but decided not to because he didn't want to annoy her.
"Well, I want to improve your body." Baek Ain shook his head and sat on the hammock.
Yafei tilted her head in confusion and returned, "My body? Like the other serials who cultivated their bodies into Sage Physique?"
Baek Ain nodded confirmingly, "Yep, like that."
"I was thinking of parting some of my Ashen-Eyed Behemoth's Bloodline to you."
"But I'm here to speak about the method."
"I can pass over my Blood Essence directly, but your body might not endure its sheer raw power and explode. Unlike Cai Lin, you don't stay acclimated to it for over a year." He sighed helplessly.
Even he doesn't believe how fortunate Cai Lin was to obtain a variation of his Ashen-Eyed Behemoth's Bloodline.
Yafei pondered and asked, "Is there any other way? I know one can pass over a bloodline through Dual Cultivation."
"Yes, but I lacked the technique." Baek Ain kissed her cheek.
Yafei giggled and responded, "There is a book in Fan Gu's research chamber. Since he researched Genes, he also thought about breeding specific bloodlines to increase one's growth and promote inborn talents for cultivation."
"And yes, some are failures, and some are successes like the Serials."
"Here is the book." She handed him a brown-leather book.
Baek Ain took the book and flipped it to the first page, which gave him an early explanation of human nature. It doesn't take long for Baek Ain to read the whole journal, thanks to his excellent Parallel Thinking and Eidetic Memory.
To his surprise, Fan Gu created a Dual Cultivation Technique to transfer one's blood essence to another. His thinking is quite literally, "Why blood essence transfer must be painful? Let's make it good." And he succeeded with flying colors.
Baek Ain doesn't know whether he must laugh or cry at Fan Gu's brilliant absurdity.
At least Fan Gu was always a man of culture.
[Ding! You have learned "Yin-Yang Synthesizing Sutra." version 3]
"You learned this too, right?" Baek Ain closed the book.
"About that... I couldn't learn the technique because his writing looks like children scribbling." Yafei replied with embarrassment. "I only understand some words and phrases."
Baek Ain laughed, "His writing does look like scribbles."
"Even the Doctor's handwriting is better than his."
If Fan Gu knew these two badly commented about his handwriting, he'd have returned and scolded them.
Baek Ain casually recited the technique and taught Yafei, watching her comprehend it quickly. The Yin-Yang Synthesizing Sutra wasn't a hard technique to learn, more so for Baek Ain and Yafei.
After five minutes, Yafei has fully learned it.
She blushed because the content of this technique was extremely suggestive.
"Done?" Baek Ain hugged her from behind.
Yafei blushed, "Mm."
"Let's start then."
...
...
Two hours later, Yafei is panting hard on the grassy land. She felt her body burning like tomorrow, feeling Baek Ain's essence climb from her nether region to her abdomen.
"Can you feel it?" Baek Ain asked while cooling her down with a cup of iced water.
Yafei drank the ice water and lied blatantly, "Just a little more."
Baek Ain raised his brows and laughed, "Sure, just a little more."
The sounds of animals in heat echoed throughout the willow forest for over three hours. Yafei is lying down on the grassy land, completely exhausted.
Her fair complexion has become slightly rosy, completely covered in sweats. She looked tired, but a satisfied smile never left her beautiful face.
Throb!
Yafei suddenly felt a throbbing sensation in her heart and clutched hard, trembling like a fever affecting her.
Baek Ain comes to her side, soothing her body.
"Breath in, breath out." He instructed her while massaging her back with Nirvana's Touch. The discomfort soon turned into a faint pleasure.
Yafei entered a lotus position as she observed her body mentally, probing every inch of flesh and blood. She realized her blood had become slightly thicker and carried more energy than usual.
She breathed in, feeling the newfound sensation in her heart.
Familiarizing herself with this sensation, Yafei fell into a trance and didn't realize two days passed. When Yafei awakened from meditation, she felt energized and could brute force everything before her.
[Name: Yafei]
[Race: Variant Hybrid]
[Age: 22]
[Cultivation: 2-Star Dou Venerate]
[Innate Talent: Business Genius(+), Diamond-Tempered Behemoth(+)]
[Parasite: Luan(Blue Diamond Phoenix's Variant)]
[Description: A noble young lady who followed her dream man]
Baek Ain checked her innate talents and chuckled, "Haha, as expected of her."
[Business Genius: Thanks to her upbringing, Yafei was forced to judge everything and cultivated a talent to view one's worth. After more than two decades, her observation technique has reached a genius level]
[Diamond-Tempered Behemoth: A talent birthed by a variant of Divine Beast. Diamond-Tempered Behemoth is a rare variant of Metal-Devouring Behemoth, having an innate ability to spot treasure and become stronger by devouring it]
[Diamond Tempered Behemoth's Ability: Diamond's Edge, Diamond Beast, Diamond Incarnation, Treasure Hunt, Treasure Devouring]
Baek Ain thought of something and suddenly threw a beautiful-looking crystal from his inventory at Yafei.
Yafei knew what Baek Ain implied and caught the crystal, bringing it to her mouth. The crystal quickly turned into a liquid and traveled into her throat, strengthening her overall base stats.
Her skin seemingly gained a diamond-like luster.
"This is..." Yafei waved her hand, creating some silver threads, and noticed they also possessed the same quality as diamond.
No, calling it silver threads is no longer suitable.
It should be called Diamond Threads from now on.
Yafei was excited as she hugged Baek Ain tightly, making the latter smile wryly because her physical strength increased drastically. Fortunately, Baek Ain is a tough guy.
"Did you regret following me?" Baek Ain suddenly asked.
Yafei narrowed her eyes, "Why such a question so suddenly?"
"To answer you, I'd never regret following you."
"Even though I left my family's business, living with you is making me a million times happier."
"Hai Bodong is going to be sad if he heard your words, you know?" Baek Ain teased her.
Yafei pursed her lips and placed her hands on her hips, "Hmph, let's see if he can bully me now. I'm not as powerless as I used to be!"
Baek Ain kissed her lips and said, "My little Fei Fei is entering her rebelling phase."
"I like it."
