Dual Cultivation God Returns

Chapter 129 Balance

Shen Min lay on Wu Long, as his heartbeat was like music to her ears, his embrace becoming her fortress from all the worries of the world. She still felt him inside her, which also brought her happiness.

She finally understood why Wu Long chose this carriage, despite it being quite a lot more expensive, out of all carriages that were in that town, looking inside each one of them. The seat in this carriage was well cushioned, and soft to the touch so when he pressed her against it she did not feel any discomfort.

Right before they started he also placed a formation using multiple talismans, one that isolated the sounds from leaking, shielded the inside from cold air seeping in, and also absorbed any inertia force coming from the inside of the carriage so their movements would not shake the carriage and possibly turn it over as it was quite small.

After some time Wu Long pulled his dragon out and took Shen Min in his embrace as he turned and they half-laid half-sat on the seat using its full length after cleaning themselves up a bit. As he cleaned up the inside of the carriage using a talisman and an absorbing bottle, he also slightly vented the air, taking out a warm blanket and covering them so that the cold would not create any discomfort for them.

Wu Long was exhausted as he just spent a great deal of his stamina and Spiritual Qi on a massive offense against a whole sect, put a tremendous mental strain on himself operating a large and powerful formation, and then had to deal with the aftermath. He also fully had all of his mortal needs, so he had to alleviate hunger with fasting pills, and sleep deprivation with an energy replenishment pill. And after such an intense cultivation session his reserves of endurance were starting to run low.

No matter how much knowledge and experience he had, his cultivation was still at the Qi Condensation Realm, and even if he physically tempered his body beyond what people in his realm could dream of with his miraculous techniques, such intense consumption of his resources was not sustainable for a long time yet.

So as he embraced Shen Min, they slowly went to sleep, lulled by the shaking of the carriage and each other's warmth.

As the carriage was speeding away there was a plain-looking woman standing in the town they left not long ago, looking into the distance. She soon stepped and disappeared, and then could be seen on a mountain not far from where the carriage sped off just moments before. There was a playful smile on her face, but then it disappeared as her eyebrows met in a frown.

Suddenly, a handsome man in pure white luxurious robes appeared with a step forward as if he just walked out of thin air not far from the woman.

"Xun Yawen, don't you think your mischief went a little too far?"

He said to the woman, as she turned around to face him.

"Mischief?"

"Don't play dumb, do you think I would not have noticed how much karmic luck flow you have redirected to this tiny fractured world? I wouldn't be surprised if the number of geniuses and people with rare physiques born in the Seven Boundless Worlds in the last hundred years reduced by half, while only slightly increasing here, don't you know how inefficient a forced karmic flow is? Not to mention that if you did not balance it out in time it would have been a catastrophe."

He said to her while she laughed.

"I am not exactly hiding it, Bai Shishan. Plus I did balance it out, after all, it just took some time. What is it to you anyway? And why are you here?"

"Ha! It certainly does not concern me, I am just worrying that you would land into trouble. As for why I am here, I came to propose to you as I do every hundred thousand years of course"

The woman called Xun Yawen rolled her eyes.

"Again? Are you not tired yet?"

"Tired? Haha, dream on, I will not stop until I make you my woman! I am not as easily bored as you"

"Whatever, the reply is still no"

"Haa~ Sooner or later you will understand that there is no man that is worthy of you more than me"

Xun Yawen looked at him with a deadpan expression, not bothering with an answer.

"Wen'er..."

But as soon as he tried to intimately call her, a light film covered the surroundings, isolating the plane the two stood on, her eyes flashed pure gold and her appearance gradually changed to that of an unworldly beauty, her plain white clothes accentuating her grace and making her look like a goddess untainted by the world. Her hair turned pitch black and her golden eyes were now exuding a bone-chilling cold. A subtle pressure, that nothing in this world was enduring since she was not releasing it upon it but that was potent enough to instantly and completely disintegrate the entire continent if she did, shrouded the man, and he shuddered as he took a step back.

He gulped and raised his hands to both sides trying to calm her down, but her gaze was still cold. He then sighed and took a step disappearing just as silently as he appeared.

"Haa~ seriously, what a pain. If not for his sister and family, I would not even bother with holding back"

Xun Yawen only audibly lamented and shook her head, her appearance turning to that of an old woman as the film covering the surroundings disappeared right at the moment her appearance changed. There was a sour expression on her face, but she soon turned to a distance, and a playful smile returned to her lips, as she threw away any thoughts of what happened before.

When Wu Long and Shen Min woke up it was already close to noon of the next day, and as they clothed themselves, they both felt a familiar to him and new to her bond between them. Wu Long felt great strength coursing through him as his Yang Qi now received the blessing of her Revolving Qi Realm practitioner's Extreme Yin Qi.

But what he did not expect was that he felt close to a limit of what his Yang Qi was able to support. He now understood another truth about the Dual Extremes Infinite Union Art. It was that the bond was not strictly proportional, as it gave just enough blessing of his Yang Qi that his partners' Yin Qi could endure, but it could potentially put more blessing of his partner's Yin Qi than his Yang Qi could handle. As the technique was the same for a man and a woman, it was quite possible that the one who had many partners would have to endure more. So his Yang would have to be on par with their collective Yin. In other words, he had to be enough of a man to handle multiple women, otherwise, he would have no right to have so many women. This actually was in line with Wu Long's character so he was not discouraged, but even eager.

The reason he hit his limit now after forming a bond with only three of his women, Ye Ling, Luo Mingyu, and Shen Min was that all of them were higher in cultivation than him, and two of them had Extreme Yin Qi. Plus he did not focus much on improving his Yang Qi recently, even though it did naturally improve with his cultivation base. The last time he cultivated the Golden Yang Dragon Body was before setting out from the sect, and though it was incredibly potent, it was not omnipotent. Just the fact that he could handle two Extreme Yin Physique blessings both above him in the cultivation realm was already a miracle.

But since he did not plan to not create a bond with his other women including Hua Ziyan, Feng Yi, and possibly Sui Luxiao, and the ones who he already had a bond with would only improve their cultivation and Yin Qi, he had to increase his efforts in cultivating the Golden Yang Dragon Body. What he required for that was Yang attribute medicine. He had just inherited quite a lot of them so he was not that worried but the problem was that there were not any really good ones, only what he considered somewhat acceptable medicines were kept for the day the best disciples or elders could buy them with their contribution points, while what he considered decent, which were believed to be the best ones here, were used as soon as they were acquired.

But he was now very rich, and he was traveling on a journey, so there inevitably would be opportunities on the way.

For now, he decided to use what he had and started consuming the medicines and cultivating Golden Yang Dragon Body while they were on the way. Thus, when they reached the capital, he already felt more comfortable with the balance of Yin and Yang in the bonds with his women again.
