NOVPUBFor this exceptionally handsome little disciple, Huo Jingtong had paid little attention to him since the end of the competition.
After all, his cultivation base was too low, and his aptitude was nothing extraordinary.
Little did she expect that this very disciple she had overlooked had already quietly broken through to the Golden Core Realm!
How long had he been cultivating?
Not even three full years!
Such talent...
"Follow me!" Huo Jingtong’s eyes gleamed with a strange light as she pulled Li Qing into the room.
"Vessel of Pure Yin?" After a careful examination, Huo Jingtong was shocked once again.
When she originally took him as her disciple, because she still somewhat scorned the fact that he had transformed from male to female, she hadn’t checked very carefully. She had only given him a cursory scan with her divine sense.
She had never thought that a male body could also be a Vessel of Pure Yin!
"Master, is my cultivation speed a bit off?"
"Too fast..."
"So fast that it’s starting to scare me." Just then, Li Qing, who had been observant, spoke up at the right time.
Huo Jingtong’s expression grew serious.
She examined Li Qing’s progress in the Moonlight Transformation Technique once again.
After confirming that nothing had gone wrong, she suppressed the joy in her heart and reassured, "Don’t worry, there’s nothing wrong. The cultivation speed of a true prodigy is indeed unimaginable to ordinary people."
"Fast is good, the faster the better," Huo Jingtong murmured softly.
"By the way, have you revealed your progress in cultivation to anyone else?" After a while, Huo Jingtong came to her senses and quickly asked.
"No. Apart from Master, I have not dared to mention it to anyone else. My senior sisters have also been busy with their cultivations, so they do not know that I have reached the Golden Core Realm," Li Qing confessed honestly.
"Very good. Remember, from now on, do not easily reveal your cultivation base in front of others," Huo Jingtong instructed earnestly.
Li Qing nodded again and again.
From that night on, Li Qing moved to live in the other courtyard next to Huo Jingtong.
Under the personal guidance of Huo Jingtong.
Li Qing, in whom Huo Jingtong had placed all her hopes, was treated vastly differently from before.
Spirit Stones and elixirs were plentiful, and various technique scriptures were provided as much as possible.
Even when he came to her with questions, Huo Jingtong would stop her own cultivation to explain and clear his doubts attentively.
No matter the time of day or night.
In this way, Huo Jingtong’s thoughts were almost completely invested in Li Qing over six months.
However, what made Huo Jingtong somewhat anxious was that during this period, Li Qing’s cultivation base indeed improved.
But compared to a true prodigy, to the speed he had previously shown, it was far too slow.
"Perhaps I’ve put too much pressure on him."
After a thorough check-up of Li Qing’s body and finding no clear reason, Huo Jingtong could only think this.
So she specially granted Li Qing’s request for leave to relax.
Three days later, when Li Qing returned, his essence, spirit, and vitality all seemed somewhat different.
And his cultivation progress had surged dramatically in an instant.
The final stage Golden Core was not far off.
This gave Huo Jingtong some peace of mind.
But before long, Li Qing’s cultivation speed began to slow down at an almost perceptible rate.
Li Qing once again requested to go out and relax.
Huo Jingtong outwardly agreed, but inwardly, doubt had already arisen.
She secretly followed Li Qing.
Unexpectedly, she witnessed a scene that made her blush and her heart race.
In the room, Li Qing was entangled with a female disciple from her own sect named Han Haiyan, and Sima Jing, huddled together.
The joys of love filled the space, with passion in every corner.
They even uttered nonsensical, wanton words that made Huo Jingtong unable to bear it any longer, ready to burst in and stop such indecent behavior.
But in the end, Huo Jingtong restrained herself.
After all, as absurd as it may have been, it was consensual, and they were not violating any sect rules.
Huo Jingtong’s face kept changing colors, but ultimately she did not interrupt Li Qing’s pleasure and left with a swish of her sleeves.
Li Qing, sensing Huo Jingtong’s receding presence outside the room, revealed an almost imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth.
His movements became even more vigorous.
Three days later, when he returned to Huo Jingtong.
Seeing the other party’s unfriendly expression, Li Qing didn’t say anything further and immediately kneeled on the spot.
"Disciple knows their mistake!"
Huo Jingtong snorted coldly, "What mistake do you believe you have committed?"
"Disciple should not have lost their sense of reason momentarily and done those absurd things with the sisters. But..." Li Qing said pitifully.
"But what?" Huo Jingtong glared fiercely at Li Qing.
"But every time after those things were done, I felt my cultivation speed accelerating even faster. Not wanting to disappoint Master’s expectations, I just..." Guilt filled Li Qing’s face.
Listening to Li Qing’s words, Huo Jingtong’s heart skipped a beat.
After checking, she found that Li Qing was not lying.
The Vessel of Pure Yin energy within Li Qing’s body had become purer. When applied to cultivation, it meant that a month later, Li Qing successfully broke through to the Final Stage Golden Core.
"This cultivation speed..."
Huo Jingtong was once again shocked and filled with doubts.
"Could it be that doing that thing is indeed beneficial to cultivation?"
Huo Jingtong, knowing nothing of this, couldn’t help feeling puzzled.
After quietly perusing some ancient texts, Huo Jingtong came to an understanding.
It must be because of Li Qing’s extremely special body constitution!
Regardless of her intentions, Huo Jingtong had no reason to stop Li Qing’s actions.
Therefore, regarding the disturbances Li Qing caused on Lui Yue Peak, she chose to turn a blind eye.
"As long as he can maintain this cultivation speed..."
"No need to wait a hundred years. It will soon be a great surprise for everyone in the sect."
Huo Jingtong was lost in the fantasy of the Moonlight lineage rising to prominence. 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝔲𝔟.𝔠𝖔𝖒
After several tests, Li Qing, who had confirmed that Huo Jingtong had tacitly approved of his actions, finally stopped holding back.
Li Qing showed his true colors to the fellow female cultivators of Lui Yue Peak.
Li Qing was already extremely popular among these female disciples.
Now that he had become Huo Jingtong’s favored one, as long as he did not go too far, almost everything on Lui Yue Peak could be decided by his word alone.
With the help of cultivators like Sima Jing who had already fallen into Li Qing’s clutches, he hardly had to make any effort to coax these female cultivators into bed with half-truths.
Thus, Li Qing harvested the Yin energy of numerous female cultivators at a frighteningly extreme pace.
And the benefits that came with it were extremely evident.
Three months after his breakthrough to the Final Stage Golden Core, with the help of this unimaginably pure and vast Yin energy,
Li Qing successfully formed his Nascent Soul and stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm.
This speed of cultivation could no longer be simply described as fast.
Even Huo Jingtong, who had witnessed Li Qing’s cultivation process from the beginning, couldn’t help but feel a sense of fear.
She seemed to understand the sense of bewilderment that Li Qing had when he came to her in the middle of the night.
Just when she began to waver, wondering whether to continue allowing Li Qing to act so recklessly,
She received an order from the sect mandating her assistance in investigating the widespread Law Transmission incidents sprouting like sparks within the sect’s domain.
Out of necessity, she briefly warned Li Qing with a few words and then hurriedly left the sect, hoping to complete the task and return as soon as possible.
But what she could not imagine was that without her presence,
There was virtually no one left on Lui Yue Peak who could restrain Li Qing.
And Li Qing no longer concealed his actions, openly harming the remaining female cultivators.
Perhaps, it is not accurate to simply use the word "harming."
In reality, not only did these female cultivators not resist,
The vast majority of them enjoyed it.
Physiological and psychological factors aside, the key point was that these female cultivators on Lui Yue Peak found that after their pleasurable encounters with Li Qing, their cultivation base improved faster than before.
At first, the infrequent encounters made this hard to notice.
But as time passed, the disparity gradually became apparent.
Who could refuse something that brings pleasure and is also beneficial to cultivation?
And so, in just half a month’s time,
Lui Yue Peak had completely fallen.
There was no longer any female cultivator who could escape Li Qing’s grasp.
When Huo Jingtong returned, what she faced was this situation.
Huo Jingtong’s complexion was extremely unsightly.
