Chapter 332 Ancient Soul Refining (**)
Xuefeng didn't know how long he had been out, but he regained his focus while being pulled onto the rocky shore by Katherine. He still held onto Xinyu, who seemed to be doing much better than he was. Her body shone in his arms, almost burning to the touch as if undergoing the transformation of her Bloodline.
"You okay?" Katherine asked, seeing his eyes wide open. "You had me worried for a moment."
"I'm fine," Xuefeng reassured her, his gaze shifting to Xinyu. "I was just enjoying myself too much and accidentally poured a bit too much Bloodline Essence into her. I didn't think it would weaken me this much."
"Xinyu doesn't seem to mind. I can sense her Bloodline growing rapidly," Katherine replied, her eyebrows arching as she placed her hand on Xinyu's stomach. "It's actually much stronger than mine already. She should be able to activate her dragon form freely."
Just as she spoke, Xinyu's body shone with light, and golden scales began forming on her skin. Starting from the center of her chest, they formed a firm, yet delicate layer around her breast before spreading to other parts of her body. Katherine seemed proud of the golden scales her daughter had inherited from her, but then something changed.
"Black?"
Katherine's eyes widened in surprise as the color of Xinyu's scales changed, with the golden hue turning black. Instead of being the primary color, the gold was overpowered by the black, and her scales became even more magnificent. Each scale had a black interior with a golden border, giving her the aura of royalty. Even Xuefeng was amazed by the brilliant combination, his hands roaming her body in satisfaction.
"I guess it all worked out," Xuefeng muttered with a sigh of relief, his eyes closing as he rested on the warm stones. "I really need to create a larger batch before we try again. Being in this weakened state is not fun."
Katherine seemed devastated by the news, collapsing at his feet with a groan. "You can't leave me like this for hours... My craving for you won't go away until I'm satisfied."
"I never said I'm leaving," Xuefeng said with a smile, sitting up with Xinyu in his arms. "My Bloodline needs to recover if we want to continue refining, but until then, we can train normally. Even though I'm quite powerful for my Cultivation rank, I am still far from reaching the peak. All of you should have already surpassed me by now."
All of his wives had the best possible talent when it came to cultivation, so he didn't have much of an advantage anymore. With the three days he spent in the Dragon Realm, they had thirty days of constant training to make up for.
"I'm fine with that," Katherine nodded eagerly while caressing his inner thighs. "Let's cultivate plenty then. I will free my schedule for you."
Xuefeng chuckled and glanced down at Xinyu, who had already finished her transformation. She was so beautiful he wanted to brush her wet hair, which had now turned into a mix of black and blond after absorbing his Dragon Bloodline. She seemed to enjoy his gentle touch as she reached to hold his hand and whispered with a blissful smile, "I loved it..."
He didn't hesitate to free one of his hands and pull out three jade pills from Ling's world, each a product of Lisa's genius in the Dragon Realm. She called them Soul Tempering pills, and that was all he needed to know. His wives had full trust in him, and they both swallowed the pills without exchanging a single word.
"Ahh!!"
Saying the effects were incredible would be an understatement. A warm, tingling sensation spread throughout their bodies before attacking their souls with a sudden pulse, as if a thousand minuscule electric currents were washing over them. Their eyes closed involuntarily, each of them lost in their own world of sensation.
'Second level!' Ling tracked Xuefeng's progress in real time, sending him updates each time he broke through the milestones.
'Third level!'
'Fourth level!'
Xuefeng could feel his whole existence burning from the sudden advancement. He considered stopping after an hour had passed, a sentiment shared by the ladies.
"I'm burning all over... I can't..." Xinyu complained, her pained voice sounding as if she was close to giving up. Compared to Katherine, she wasn't directly connected with Xuefeng, which lessened the effects their pleasure had on pain.
"What kind of pill is this...?" Katherine questioned while trying her best to hold back her groans. "I have advanced two levels already... My Soul needs a break..."
The once chaotic swirl of energies above them now formed into a magnificent cyclone of colors, each hue representing the various elements. This cyclone acted as a funnel, channeling even more energy into their souls, further magnifying the effects of Lisa's pill.
What felt like hours passed in mere minutes, and their surroundings began to change. The rocks they were on started to glow from the excess Qi flowing into its structure, and the nearby plants grew at an accelerated rate, slowly turning the vicinity into an Eden.
'Fifth level!!!'
Xuefeng was forced to release Xinyu as he heard another report, his teeth gritting to hold back the pain. He momentarily cut off the connection with the Qi in the air, and it exploded into the sky, dispersing in all directions. That move eased his Soul for the last advancement just before the effects of Lisa's pill ran out.
The trio simultaneously opened their eyes, each of them breathing loudly as they looked at one another. They made sure everyone was alright before collapsing on each other, too tired to continue enjoying like nothing happened.
"Lisa truly is a genius..."
