A rustling sound of clothing echoed through the silent mountain forest as Hong Lian slowly opened her eyes. In her deep gaze, a flicker of warmth quickly faded, returning to calmness.
Two Old Bears lounged at the cave entrance, yawning lazily, appearing disgruntled as if their interest had been dampened.
Animals possess spirit, and magical beasts are even more intelligent, highly attuned to human nature. Their instincts can sense any hostility or murderous intent from humans.
Instinct told the two Old Bears that whether it was the two beasts occupying their cave or the seemingly fierce red-haired creature sitting outside, aside from an initial slightly disrespectful attitude towards them, they had been quite reasonable afterward, not causing any fear for the two elderly bears.
Most importantly, these uninvited guests had no intention of killing bears for their gallbladders; they were kind-hearted humans who came merely for a thrill.
Bear Dad glanced at Mama Bear, his eyes reflecting a sense of melancholy as if saying, "Honey, it seems we won't be raising bear cubs today; let's just consider it a favor for those two beasts."
Mama Bear looked back at Bear Dad with a similarly melancholic expression, softly grunting a few times. Just as she was about to move closer, footsteps suddenly echoed from within the cave. A figure emerged through the sparse underbrush concealing the cave and appeared outside.
The person who appeared was none other than Bu, returning from the "great battle." The slight relaxation on his brow indicated his good mood. Spring Poison had resolved matters and even played the tyrant; although he found this situation quite troublesome now, there was an undeniable sense of relief that came after a man strayed.
"Borrowing your cave for a bit; here are two Intermediate Level 4 Two-Headed Lizard Demon Cores," he said, taking out two Magic Cores obtained from the battle at the mountain peak and tossing them to the two Old Bears. He then silently returned to the cave.
The two Old Bears seemed to understand human speech; they grunted as they picked up the Magic Cores from the ground and reluctantly glanced back at their den before waddling away together.
Inside the cave, the light was dim. Eve hastily dressed and had already begun meditating. Her cheeks were flushed, exuding an intoxicating charm as countless fine energy glimmers swirled around her like a water curtain. This was the Water God Technique in operation.
Bu Qing chuckled softly and moved closer to Eve's side, finding a clean spot on the ground to sit down and also closed his eyes to enter meditation.
At this moment, energy roared within him, and twenty-six acupoints shimmered with an unprecedented bright light. Listening closely to the sound of energy flowing, it resembled the surging waves of a great tide. The energy coursing through his meridians continuously struck against more unactivated acupoints, indicating that he was on the verge of a breakthrough.
The Water God Technique included the Mind Method Secret Manual. This was the first time he had learned the Mind Method Secret Manual, and he was unaware of its rank. Inside his Storage Bracelet lay a copy of the Intermediate Level 4 Sleeping Dragon Heart Sutra, which he intended to study once he reached Intermediate Level 4. However, since he had already learned the Water God Technique, there was no need to waste the Sleeping Dragon Heart Sutra on himself; it could be saved for Reynold and others.
The reason for this decision was that he had gradually begun to sense the power of the Water God Technique. This peculiar method, whose rank was unknown, had already caused energy tides to emerge simply by fully converting energy into water attributes. It surged all the energy within his acupoints into his meridians, leading him to show signs of opening the twenty-seventh acupoint right after just having opened the twenty-sixth.
He wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but during his intimate encounter with Eve earlier, he vaguely felt that the flow of energy within him was extremely rapid. What usually took a minute to complete now took less than two breaths during that activity.
Like water merging with milk, both he and Eve practiced the Water God Technique's Mind Method Secret Manual simultaneously in an unconscious state. At that moment of physical intimacy, they achieved a certain level of spiritual resonance, causing the speed of their Mental Technique cultivation to surge dramatically. The energy within him rose like a flood breaking through a dam.
