Da Xuan Martial Saint-Chapter 697 - 394: The World Has Its Ups and Downs_2
Hearing Hua Nongying's response, Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh and said, "The Hehuan Sect is far from the strongest among the sects in the world, but if you talk about the heritage and the way of survival, there are few sects that can match yours."
As he spoke,
Chen Mu looked down at Hua Nongying and Hua Nongyue, only to see the sisters still looking at him with clear eyes.
"It's just curiosity, I have no grudges against the Hehuan Sect, and will not oppose Hehuan, let alone force you to your deaths. Haha, in the end, I still fell into your Hehuan Sect's scheme."
Chen Mu said this with a light smile.
Hearing this, Hua Nongying finally smiled joyfully and said, "Who dares to trick you, sir? If you were not willing in your heart, who in this world could force you?"
Smack.
A crisp sound was heard, and Hua Nongying couldn't help making a 'hmm' sound, her cheeks flushing red.
"Being too clever is not always a good thing."
Chen Mu looked at Hua Nongying leisurely, then put her down, and slowly stood up, stretching his body.
At this, Hua Nongying and Hua Nongyue immediately walked over with graceful steps, one on the left and one on the right, gently saying, "We will serve sir during your bath and change of clothes."
Chen Mu did not refuse, moving towards the large wooden bathtub in the inner room.
He was never one to indulge in asceticism. His nature was to enjoy life without coveting it, experiencing both hardships and pleasures freely. He used to be wary of the Hehuan Sect's tactics and kept his distance, but now there was clearly no such apprehension anymore, and he could handle everything with equanimity.
...
On the spacious bed.
Hua Nongying and Hua Nongyue were both neatly dressed, sitting cross-legged, each holding hands, their energies connected, refining their Inner Breath Yuan Gang.
Their other hands were not idle though, each holding one of Chen Mu's hands, forming a circle in a trinity formation. Only this time, what emerged from Chen Mu was not the evolving Power of Yin Yang, but the complete Qiankun Power, guiding and controlling the Power of Yin Yang within the two women, causing it to intertwine and coalesce.
Who knows how much time had passed.
The Power of Yin Yang within Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying gradually settled.
Originally, Hua Nongying's cultivation and Artistic Conception were slightly inferior to Hua Nongyue's, especially in the past at the Five Viscera Realm. She was a whole level beneath Hua Nongyue. However, after reaching the Six Viscera Realm, Hua Nongyue had stayed at the perfection of the Six Viscera Realm, while Hua Nongying, through regular Dual Cultivation with her sister, had slowly caught up.
This time, through Chen Mu's guidance and refinement, coupled with the secret technique of Yin Yang unity, her cultivation of physique was essentially no different from Hua Nongyue, only slightly lacking in Artistic Conception perception, but even that gap was extremely small now.
This was quite a case of earlier cultivation influencing later cultivation. However, only Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying, sisters with such a unique physique, could achieve this. Others, even Chen Mu and Xu Hongyu, though able to enhance Xu Hongyu's Body Tempering Cultivation through Dual Cultivation, could not assist her in perceiving the Artistic Conception, unable to merge souls and cultivate with Xu Hongyu.
"The way of Heaven cycles, where there is fullness, there is lack; where there is lack, there is fullness."
Chen Mu slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping over Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying, and he spoke with a slight sense of admiration, "Even now, you probably have a forty to fifty percent chance of breaking through the Mysterious Pass, and in the future, entering the Grandmaster Realm will be much easier. Such talents are truly blessed by Heaven."
For ordinary people, if they wanted to challenge the Mysterious Pass after fully understanding the Yin Yang Artistic Conception, the difficulty would be second only to the Qiankun Path. Although in today's world, there are a few who enter into the Grandmaster Realm through the Power of Yin Yang every hundred years, they are definitely not many.
But Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying had found a clever way.
The sisters cultivated with the secret technique, connected in mind, equivalent to practicing the complete Yin Yang Artistic Conception. However, when not using the secret technique, they were two different people, each able to break through the Mysterious Pass in the future, with the difficulty reduced by more than half.
Of course, examples like theirs are probably one in a billion, not so much strange as it is fate. Those who were not meant to survive, yet survived, naturally saw the storm pass and new life emerge after tribulations.
Hua Nongying slowly opened her eyes.
As the energy within her body gradually stabilized, she looked at Chen Mu with a playful gaze and said with a chuckle, "My lord, such praise, my sister and I truly do not deserve. Even if my sister and I's talents could merge into one, we would still fall short compared to you."
"There's no need to compare yourself to me."
Chen Mu shook his head slightly. In this world, there was no one whose talents could compare to his, not in the past and likely not in the future either. In his view, the exceptionally unique talents of Hua Nongying and Hua Nongyue were, apart from a few top geniuses of this era, unparalleled, and they might even reach the Blood Exchange realm together in the future.
"Very well."
"Yin Yang evolves Qiankun, Qiankun encompasses Yin Yang. Now that you both have a deeper understanding of the paths of Yin Yang and Qiankun, you should continue your Cultivation step by step steadily. The Mysterious Pass will not be difficult for you to break through. I hope you can step into the Marrow Cleansing Realm soon. By then, if the sisters join forces, you will carry some weight in this world too."
Chen Mu slowly withdrew his hand and said to them.
These past few days, he aided Hua Nongying and Hua Nongyue in their Cultivation. Although their Cultivation levels were slightly low, still in the Six Viscera Realm, they practiced the path of Yin Yang, and with their special physiques and interesting secret techniques, he also gained some insights. However, it was almost time for him to head to Dragon Wood Island.
"Yes."
Hua Nongyue responded softly.
Hua Nongying then blinked at Chen Mu, her voice sultry, "My sister and I's significance in this world, only you are completely clear about, my lord."
Thump.
Chen Mu flicked Hua Nongying's forehead, making her yelp, "Cultivate diligently."
Once, he and Hua Nongying, Hua Nongyue were together as the young generation's geniuses, but now their Cultivation strengths were completely lagging behind him. Even if they wanted to work for him, there was not much they could do. Chen Mu indeed hoped that they would step into the Marrow Cleansing Realm soon.
By that time, although it would still be impossible to keep up with his Cultivation pace, the sisters would truly have some strength in this chaotic world, enough to traverse it with authority, unlike grandmasters like Helian Cheng who would be no match for them.
After his speech.
Chen Mu did not say more, his figure quietly flashed, and he disappeared within the room, leaving no trace of movement at the doors or windows.
On the bed, only Hua Nongying and Hua Nongyue remained. The sisters gazed where Chen Mu had vanished, and after a while, they turned back to each other. Hua Nongyue caught a glimpse of Hua Nongying's cheek, reflecting like a mirror, and gently pinched it, saying, "This time you finally got your wish."
The sisters understood each other well. Hua Nongying naturally did not fall for it and lightly chuckled, "Sister also desired it, but I'm not quite sure when sister took an interest, perhaps during our ascent of the Yunni Sky Steps?"

"Perhaps."
Hua Nongyue softly replied, turning her head to look back at the spot where Chen Mu had sat, saying, "This lord's journey to Xunmu Cave Heaven seems like a casual opportunity, but if it's the turn of heavenly mandate, great opportunities will surely come with great dangers."
Hua Nongying was momentarily taken aback, then said, "Why didn't you remind him when the lord was here, sister?"
Hua Nongyue turned her head toward the window and said softly, "What we know, how could the lord not know? And what the lord knows, we do not. By now, there's nothing much we can help him with. We just hope that the lord can overcome all obstacles, face all trials, and eventually take that step forward. It's just unclear how long that will take..."
Hua Nongying also briefly fell silent. The transition from Marrow Cleansing to Blood Exchange was extremely difficult; the stronger the path, the harder it was. Even though Chen Mu's talents were unmatched, it was hard to say how long it would take to overcome that step. And until then, this world would always be fraught with dangers for Chen Mu.
Their hearts were fully invested in Chen Mu, to flourish or to flounder together. If Chen Mu could ascend smoothly, then their faith in him would also benefit. However, if Chen Mu faced severe trials and misfortunes, their spirits would also be profoundly affected.
It was uncertain how much their joint evolution of Yin Yang had actually aided Chen Mu's insights into Cultivation.
