Chapter 80 Dual Cultivation? Sleeping in Each Other's Arms!
Above the pitch-black night sky, the silver moon hangs high, its pale light draping the earth in a thin veil of silver, making it look exceptionally mysterious.
Tang Chuan slowly pushed open the door, looking slightly tired and covered in dust.
He had just stepped into the house when a light, somewhat hurried footstep sounded.
Are you alright?
Xiao Ruier came forward, a hint of worry in her eyes, her gaze sweeping over Tang Chuan as if to check if he was injured.
Tang Chuan shook his head slightly and said, "I'm fine."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruier did not give up. Her tone was serious as she pressed on, "Who is that person? I feel... he seems to be very strong."
"Just an old friend."
A complex light flashed in his eyes, and after a moment of silence, Tang Chuan spoke softly.
"An old friend?!" Xiao Ruier repeated in a low voice, her brows furrowed slightly. She glanced at Tang Chuan as if she understood but didn't ask any further questions.
Then, she gently helped Tang Chuan sit down and carefully leaned against him.
"I never expected that our martial souls could actually fuse together, and even unleash a martial soul fusion skill." Xiao Ruier said softly, her tone filled with surprise and admiration.
"I remember that to perform a Soul Fusion Skill, the compatibility between the Soul Masters' Souls must be high enough. But we've only known each other for a short time... I never expected that a dragon and grass... could actually fuse." Tang Chuan's expression faltered slightly, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes, and he smiled.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruier snorted and glared at him irritably.
"What's wrong with dragons and grass fusing? Who says these two martial souls can't be compatible? Maybe our martial souls can fuse for other reasons."
"Another reason?" Tang Chuan paused for a moment, looking at Xiao Ruier's earnest and stubborn expression, when suddenly his mind jolted as if he remembered something. He thought to himself:
"Could it be because we swapped some of our memories?"
"Or was it influenced by the Eye of Fate?"
Time always flies when you're lost in thought.
Suddenly, Xiao Ruier yawned deeply, rubbed her eyes, and said wearily, "I'm a little sleepy... I'm going back to my room to sleep."
She had just turned around when Tang Chuan suddenly raised his hand and blocked her way.
"Wait a moment." Tang Chuan's tone was not heavy, but it carried a hint of seriousness.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruier stopped and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
After a moment's hesitation, Tang Chuan looked into Xiao Ruier's eyes and slowly said:
"Although our martial souls can fuse, we were clearly not skilled enough when using it before. Martial soul fusion skills are indeed powerful, but if not controlled properly, they can backfire. Do you think... we should take some time to practice?"
"Now?" Xiao Ruier tilted her head and looked at Tang Chuan, blinking with a puzzled expression. "How can we practice in the room? There's no one to fight with."
Tang Chuan coughed slightly awkwardly, then said seriously:
"That's not what I meant. I was thinking... we could try meditating together, holding hands, feeling the flow of each other's soul power, and see if we can merge more smoothly."
"What you said does seem to make some sense." Xiao Ruier paused slightly, stared at Tang Chuan for a few seconds, and then suddenly chuckled, her tone a mix of reproach and amusement.
"I'll give it a try. But if it doesn't work, I'm really going to sleep."
A few minutes later, the lights inside the room slowly went out, leaving only the moonlight streaming through the gauze curtains, casting a soft glow on the room and adding a touch of tranquility and mystery to the night.
The two of them tacitly came to the bed and sat down cross-legged facing each other.
The blankets sank slightly, and the two people, who were so close together, could almost feel each other's breath mingling.
Taking a deep breath, Tang Chuan slowly extended his palm.
Xiao Ruier glanced at him and placed her hand on his without hesitation.
Their palms touched, their fingertips trembling slightly.
The soul power seemed to fluctuate slightly at this moment.
"Let's begin," Tang Chuan said in a low voice, glancing at Xiao Ruier.
After they finished speaking, they each closed their eyes and entered a meditative state.
The room was completely silent, with only the sound of their breathing and the gentle breeze outside the window.
As time passed, a strange energy converged in their palms, flowing slowly, merging and colliding along their meridians like a gentle stream.
At the same time, faint golden and blue light could be seen on the two of them.
When the two were training together, their soul power increased rapidly. Simply put, their individual rate of increase was equivalent to the sum of their usual training rates.
In other words, if Tang Chuan cultivates for one hour, his soul power increases by one unit; if Xiao Ruier cultivates for one hour, her soul power increases by one and a half units.
So now, when they cultivate together, the two kinds of soul power are mixed and enhanced.
Not only did it increase the speed of soul power circulation, but after an hour, their soul power also increased by 2.6.
As a result, Tang Chuan's cultivation speed more than doubled, and Xiao Ruier's speed also nearly doubled.
Undoubtedly, Tang Chuan benefited more.
Because Xiao Ruier's cultivation speed is faster than his, but if the gap between their cultivation levels narrows in the future, then the benefits of cultivating together will be similar.
Soul power flowed slowly between their palms, and the intermingling fluctuations acted like an invisible pull, drawing their auras and heartbeats closer little by little.
At first, it was just fingertips touching, but gradually it turned into knees touching and shoulders leaning together.
After an unknown amount of time, that tidal wave of attraction continued.
The two subconsciously succumbed to this comfort and slowly moved closer, eventually snuggling together.
As their soul power was continuously consumed and merged, a final wave of exhaustion washed over them, and the two embraced each other before falling into a deep sleep.
Nothing more was said that night, and dawn gradually broke...
At this moment, on the streets of Soto, the night had not yet faded, and a cool morning breeze swept through the quiet streets, gently stirring up the fallen leaves on the ground.
The master and Flander stood on a secluded street corner, surrounded by deathly silence.
"Xiao Gang, have you found the whereabouts of those two Fallen Ones either?" Flander wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the solemn-looking master beside him, and asked in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, the master shook his head and said, "No. Last night, I took Xiaosan and searched almost the entire western district of Soto City, but we didn't find any clues."
Flander paused for a moment, seemingly choosing his words carefully, then said with a flicker in his eyes, "By the way, I discovered something strange last night when I was tracking these two Fallen Ones."
"What is it?" Upon hearing this, the master turned to look at him, puzzled.
Flander lowered his voice, a serious expression appearing on his face, and said solemnly, "I received news that not long ago, something happened at the Spirit Hall branch in Soto City."
"The bishop of the Spirit Hall branch in Soto City, as well as all the spirit masters stationed there, are all dead. Their deaths were extremely gruesome; they were all reduced to minced meat."
"It looked like it was shattered by some kind of powerful weapon spirit."
