Chapter 75: Chapter -75 Unity of heaven and man.
Chapter -75.
You know, women with fiery and straightforward personalities often have a knack for strong intuition, while those who are gentle and meticulous tend to be great observers. Ma Xiaotao definitely falls into the first category; she's not one to be overly cautious, but her instincts are sharp as a beast's.
Ma Xiaotao really trusts her gut feelings. Earlier, when her heart started racing out of nowhere, it gave her a bit of an anxious vibe.
That's why, despite feeling tired, she rushed home.
When she got back and saw Chen Feng, she felt a wave of relief wash over her. Watching her sweet husband, she started to think maybe she was overreacting. Perhaps it was just some flirty woman trying to catch his eye while she was away, so she casually asked him about it.
Chen Feng, hearing her question, stayed calm. He was pretty sure he hadn't left any clues behind. The scent had faded away, and his clothes were already gone. Honestly, he didn't want to keep anything from Ma Xiaotao, but he knew that telling her the truth could lead to some serious trouble.
If Ma Xiaotao was just venting, he would have come clean right away. But for the sake of Ling Luocheng's safety, he decided to hold off until he could handle Ma Xiaotao's reaction before being honest.
As he held Ma Xiaotao close, he couldn't help but notice her lovely, slightly sweaty scent filling the air.
Gently stroking her beautiful, damp back, he said, "There's no such thing as indecent women, just female students from the academy."
Ma Xiaotao's ears perked up, "Hmm? Female students?"
Jealousy bubbled up inside her, and she pulled away from Chen Feng's shoulder, breaking free from his embrace.
With her striking red phoenix eyes fixed on him, she asked, "Female students? Is it that blonde, skinny girl named Ning Tian?"
Chen Feng met her gaze without flinching, replying, "I was just chatting with the female students in class, Sister Xiaotao. Are you feeling jealous?"
Ma Xiaotao said, "I'm just worried they'll try to charm you. These women are after your good looks; you can't let them get to you!"
Suddenly, a playful smile spread across Ma Xiaotao's face as she leaned in close to Chen Feng's ear and playfully nibbled on it.
In an instant, Chen Feng felt warmth and a soft, tingling whisper, "Let me check~"
With that, flames danced in Ma Xiaotao's hands, and Chen Feng's clothes disappeared in a flash.
Her delicate face turned a shade of pink as she brushed away the damp red strands of hair clinging to her cheeks from the sweat.
Her vibrant, fiery red lips looked even more stunning.
Chen Feng's deep eyes sparkled as he gently tidied up Ma Xiaotao's messy hair.
After a moment, he sighed, thinking: Ma Xiaotao is truly a handful...
Little did she know, thanks to the Yin-Yang technique, Chen Feng wasn't feeling tired at all; in fact, he felt more energized and was recovering at lightning speed.
Otherwise, even if he was smooth with his words and actions, any real challenge would reveal the truth...
Chen Feng was aware of the boost from his cultivation technique; without it, he wouldn't have felt so confident.
After a thorough check, Ma Xiaotao licked her lips in satisfaction, everything seemed just fine...
With dreamy eyes, she looked at Chen Feng and said, "Chen Feng, let's go cultivate~"
And just like that, everything around Chen Feng went dark...
Time flew by, and the next day arrived.
Chen Feng held Ma Xiaotao's curvy, bouncy figure, her peach-like bottom was simply irresistible. Last night, he had been so caught up in cultivating that he hadn't even noticed the dawn breaking.
Ling Luocheng and Ma Xiaotao were two different kinds of beauties; one was cool and distant, while the other was fiery and passionate. One was charming and delicate, and the other was alluring and enchanting. One was thoughtful and intricate, while the other was bold and direct, and Chen Feng appreciated them both.
And so began a new day, marking the start of a routine for Chen Feng.
During the day, he would be at the Shrek Academy's outer court, and at night, he'd stay in the attic where Ma Xiaotao lived on Sea God Island or in the Blue Flower Sea room at the Weiss Hotel.
When Ma Xiaotao was around, Chen Feng would join her in cultivating on Sea God Island; when she was off on missions, he would sneak over to the Weiss Hotel in Shrek City to cultivate with Ling Luocheng.
Time flew by, and nearly two months passed.
During this time, thanks to Chen Feng's Yin-Yang technique, which made it easier to build affection, along with his high emotional intelligence and compatibility with both Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luocheng, their feelings for him naturally deepened.
In these two months, the Sword Douluo from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School came to Shrek Academy to observe and spar with Chen Feng.
A month ago...
It was just an ordinary evening. Since Ma Xiaotao was on a mission, Chen Feng was heading out of the east gate of Shrek Academy, ready to meet Ling Luocheng in the sea of blue flowers.
As he turned a corner on a quiet street, something unexpected happened.
The yin-yang furnace deep within Chen Feng's soul trembled slightly, sending a warning.
Reacting instinctively, he used the second soul skill of the Breaking Soul Blade to teleport thirty meters away, not daring to pause for a moment. He used double the soul power to teleport again, disappearing from the street and quickly blending into the bustling crowd of Shrek City, using the phantom blade to conceal himself, vanishing in the blink of an eye among the sea of people.
Everyone knew Chen Feng, the favored son of heaven, wielding a Breaking Soul Blade and effortlessly defeating his peers. But what they didn't know was that, compared to his strength, his ability to save his own skin was even stronger!
At that moment, in the secluded street, an old man dressed in a pristine white robe stood. His hair and beard were white, with long silver hair neatly combed back. He was two meters tall, with an ancient appearance and a face as delicate as a baby's, radiating a detached aura. It seemed nothing around him was worthy of his attention; he simply stood there quietly.
Most remarkably, his skin was extremely fair, gleaming like jade. A halo of light flowed beneath his skin, and with every movement, it was as if he merged with the world around him, smooth and harmonious. The fusion of spiritual power and soul power was seamless, as if they were one.
Moreover, just by standing there, he gave off an impression that the surrounding world was under his control, evoking an irresistible feeling that could be summed up with the phrase: "All things in heaven and earth, only I am supreme."
This was the realm of unity between heaven and man, a state only achievable by those who could reach this level, giving them a chance to break through the threshold of Super Douluo at level ninety-five. Otherwise, no matter how talented they were, their achievements would be limited.
Upon entering this realm, not only would vitality consumption significantly decrease, but the connection with the elemental forces of heaven and earth would also greatly increase. In both cultivation and recovery, they would surpass soul masters of the same level. Plus, they could better conceal themselves.
The old man had reached the peak of the unity between heaven and man, having immersed himself in this state for a long time, gaining unique insights into this realm.
That is, with one's own power, to master the power of heaven and earth. In the realm of unity between heaven and man, no matter how powerful one is, it's merely a merger with heaven and earth, while the old man sought to master, transforming the power of heaven and earth into something of his own. Although he hadn't reached this ultimate state, he was far beyond the realm of unity between heaven and man.
At this moment, the old man was examining his right hand, his weathered black eyes filled with disbelief.
With his strength, capturing a young man with a soul power of just over thirty levels had actually failed?
Although he hadn't used his martial soul or even his soul power, merely making a casual grab, his realm and terrifying physique should have easily allowed him to defeat soul emperors and even soul saints.
However, the old man couldn't comprehend how he had failed to catch a young man at the soul respect level?!!
He couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder, and after some thought, he murmured, "No, it was before I made my move that this kid sensed me and preemptively used a spatial soul skill to escape... How did this kid discover me? With his realm, he should be far from being able to perceive my presence.
And was the final blending into the crowd an illusion-type? Or a transformation-type soul skill? Interesting, truly interesting, hahahaha!! Zhi Yuan really found me an interesting child, hahahaha!"
The old man laughed heartily, then his figure vanished without a trace...
This old man was the guardian Douluo of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Sword Douluo, with the martial soul Seven Killing Sword, now merely one hundred and twenty years old (Xuan Lao is over two hundred years old, so one hundred and twenty is still quite young), with a soul power level of ninety-seven.
With the right opportunities, it is not impossible for him to break through to level ninety-nine in the future, becoming a Limit Douluo, dominating the Douluo Continent. (Reaching Limit Douluo requires great opportunities; condensing dual soul cores has high requirements, not just high realms.)
At this moment, Chen Feng, hidden in the crowd, was sweating coldly on his back.
Chen Feng naturally did not know who had made the move, nor did he know whether the other party had malicious intent.
Chen Feng knew that just now was definitely the most dangerous moment he had encountered, and the realm of the person who made a move was far beyond his imagination.
Chen Feng thought to himself, "A Title Douluo, or even a Super Douluo level powerhouse, this is really frightening. Fortunately, this is in Shrek City; otherwise, if the opponent launched a wide-range attack, I would definitely be exposed."
Chen Feng did not dare to linger and quickly flew back to Shrek Academy. As for the secret meeting, that could wait. With such a powerful figure having designs on him, Chen Feng had no thoughts of going to a rendezvous.
At this moment, the duo lying flat in Chen Feng's Sea of Spirit, the Ice Emperor and the Dream Ice Silkworm, finally realized that Chen Feng had encountered danger.
The Dream Ice Silkworm jumped up and down in the Sea of Spirit, shouting, "Which jerk dared to make a move on Chen Feng just now? Don't let me find out who it is; otherwise, I will... I will..."
The Ice Emperor, with her two large pincers, slapped the Dream Ice Silkworm aside. The Ice Emperor was also shaken; she had already bound herself to Chen Feng, and if something happened to him, she would be in trouble too.
The Ice Emperor's expression was heavy as she said solemnly, "Stop shouting. The person who just attacked Chen Feng is definitely stronger than Shrek Academy's Dean Yan Shaozhe. Even at my peak, I might not be able to match that person."
The Dream Ice Silkworm became serious, "Ahem, although I can't deal with him, I might be able to starve him to death."
Ice Emperor: →_→
At this moment, the Ice Emperor thought that it was truly impressive and hard to believe that Chen Feng could escape from such a powerful figure.
