Chapter 193: True Profound Realm Peak

Six drops of Dragon God's blood entered Yun Che's body, making him instantly feel as if six balls of fire had simultaneously exploded within him.

Thanks to the existence of the Evil God's Fire Seed, merging with the Phoenix blood had been effortless and without incident for Yun Che. However, the Dragon God's blood had a significantly higher energy density than the Phoenix blood. Furthermore, the Dragon God's power lacked elemental attributes. For Yun Che, merging all six drops of Dragon God's blood would be tens of times more difficult than merging the Phoenix blood.

Yun Che even suspected that the Primordial Azure Dragon sending all six drops of Dragon God's blood into his body at once might also be a form of test.

Yun Che immediately calmed himself and sat down. He focused his entire consciousness on his inner breath, fully activating his profound energy, and began the slow and arduous process of merging with the Dragon God's blood. Feeling the powerful bloodline energy contained within the Dragon God's blood, he began to doubt whether he could merge all six drops within seven days.

The dark world was completely isolated from the outside, ensuring no external disturbances. Yun Che confidently focused all his attention. Chu Yuechan, who was beside him, was enveloped in a faint blue light, protected by the Primordial Azure Dragon's power.

Outside the dark world, in the gloomy cave where Yun Che had encountered the Primordial Azure Dragon, Jasmine slowly appeared. She raised her cold eyes, staring at the azure-blue eye in the sky. "You can actually detect my presence!" she said.

"How could I not recognize the power of the Twelve Star Gods?" the Primordial Azure Dragon's voice gently responded. "You, as one of the Twelve Star Gods, have appeared in this world, and you bear the God Extinguishing Poison. It seems something significant has happened in the Star God Realm."

Jasmine let out a cold snort and said coldly, "Hmph! You are merely a wisp of a remnant soul that will dissipate in a few years. Your duty is to oversee and administer the trials and bestowals of bloodline inheritances. Our Star God Realm's affairs are none of your concern."

The Primordial Azure Dragon was unconcerned by her cold, harsh tone, and continued calmly, "In the Divine World of old, even the gods greatly feared the God Extinguishing Poison. To my surprise, this dreadful God Extinguishing Poison still exists in the world today. It seems someone has found the inheritance left by that 'demon'. And the only thing in the world that can cure this poison is the Sky Poison Pearl. You reside within the Sky Poison Pearl; as long as you do not recklessly use profound energy, the poison will dissipate within three years... However, there is too much resentment and murderous intent in your soul. The God Extinguishing Poison's restriction on your power, and this young man who might have awakened some feelings in you, have caused you to suppress all that resentment and murderous intent. But if one day you are freed from the poison and leave this young man... it is unimaginable how many lives will be lost by your hand."

Jasmine's delicate eyebrows slowly furrowed. Her lovely, youthful face became contorted with a viciousness akin to a demon from hell. "Everyone I intend to kill deserves to die!" she declared. "These damned people span nine star realms, totaling twenty-six billion individuals! As long as I live, they will all die one day!"

The Primordial Azure Dragon fell silent, then let out a long sigh. "You originally possessed the purest and kindest heart. But alas, the resentment and murderous intent that breed and grow within purity are also the purest and most extreme. I can only hope that someone can rescue you from this resentment and murderous intent... Indeed, as a mere remnant soul, I inadvertently know more than I should. The reason I wished to speak with you is simply to know... if that sword has been found yet."

Jasmine clearly knew what "that sword" referred to. She gave a cold laugh. "The gods perished because of that sword, and you, now just a wisp of a remnant soul, are still obsessed with it. I can answer you: that sword, though countless people have desperately searched for it, has never been found by anyone."

"...The reason I asked about that sword isn't because I'm obsessed with it," the Primordial Azure Dragon said. "It's because inside that sword, there is a soul that is extremely important to me."

Jasmine paused, bewildered.

"I don't even know what answer I truly want. Whether it has been found or not, each answer brings me both hope and worry. I hope it is found, yet I also dread it being found..."

Jasmine frowned. "What do you mean by all this? Is there some special secret within that sword?"

"It's not a secret; it's just a lingering attachment that I, even as a wisp of a soul, cannot let go of even in annihilation... Young lady, thank you for being willing to appear and meet me, and for honestly telling me a few things. Your presence has also given me some other thoughts regarding this young man who passed the trial. But rest assured, I will not harm him. I will only give him more blessings and then entrust him with a fraction of my hope..."

His profound energy, suppressed for nearly five months on the Boundless Plain, rapidly broke through like a breaching flood after Yun Che carefully released it. In a single day, he consecutively broke through three levels, directly reaching the seventh level of the True Profound Realm.

After that, as the Dragon God's blood was merged drop by drop, the powerful bloodline energy it contained also allowed Yun Che's profound energy to increase rapidly.

After merging the first drop of Dragon God's blood, Yun Che's profound energy immediately surged to the eighth level of the True Profound Realm. After merging three drops, it rose to the ninth level of the True Profound Realm.

Seven days later, all six drops of Dragon God's blood were fully merged. Yun Che's profound energy had also climbed to the tenth level of the True Profound Realm. One more step, and he would reach the Spirit Profound Realm.

In seven days, progressing from the fourth level to the tenth level of the True Profound Realm, this was undoubtedly a dream-like improvement. Yun Che's strength also grew wildly with this advancement.

On the eighth day, when Yun Che finally opened his eyes, the world within his profound veins had expanded several times. Every drop of blood and every cell in his body surged with incredibly powerful energy. At the same time, he felt that the toughness of his meridians, profound veins, bones, and flesh had far surpassed their previous state. These changes were clearly not from the Great Way of the Buddha, but from the Dragon God's bloodline!

The Primordial Azure Dragon's power had no attribute. Its body and power could be summarized with the word "formidable." The integration of the divine dragon bloodline undoubtedly made Yun Che's body and power incredibly formidable, at least far surpassing the human realm.

Although he hadn't broken through to the Spirit Profound Realm, the power surging through his body made Yun Che believe that, currently, he wouldn't flinch even against a profound practitioner in the late Spirit Profound Realm. Ling Jie, who had given him a significant setback half a year ago, he was confident he could now take down with one hand... Of course, this was only applicable to Ling Jie from half a year ago. As his own strength had greatly leaped, that monstrous Ling Jie might also have experienced a significant improvement during this time.

Chu Yuechan had been by his side the entire time. As he opened his eyes, the blue energy protecting Chu Yuechan gradually faded away. He quickly moved to embrace Chu Yuechan's upper body, rapidly channeling profound energy into her, and asked worriedly, "Little Fairy, are you alright?"

"I'm fine," Chu Yuechan replied softly. "You've actually broken through to... the tenth level of the True Profound Realm!"

Although she had lost all her profound energy, her ability to discern profound energy intensity remained. Based on the intensity of Yun Che's profound energy aura, she immediately recognized that he had clearly reached the peak of the True Profound Realm.

"Mhm!" Yun Che nodded with a smile. "Don't worry. I've already merged all six drops of Dragon God's blood. The Primordial Azure Dragon said that with this, I'll be able to completely restore you, and you might even achieve a breakthrough to the King Profound Realm."

He looked up and asked loudly, "Primordial Azure Dragon, I've completed the bloodline fusion. You should tell me how I can restore the Little Fairy."

"It's very simple." The azure-blue eye opened in the sky, and the Primordial Azure Dragon's voice followed. "Although only six drops of Dragon God's blood have integrated into your bloodline, in terms of the 'Dragon' system, your bloodline's strength far surpasses that of an ordinary true dragon. Her meridians are completely severed, and her profound veins are shattered. It's easy for her to survive, but extremely difficult to restore her original strength. The only way to fully restore her and allow her to achieve a breakthrough is through your Virgin Dragon Yang. Virgin Dragon Yang is something you possess only once in your life and has extremely miraculous abilities. You are a virgin, and she is a virgin. When your Yin and Yang combine, your Virgin Dragon Yang will be completely absorbed by her virgin Yin essence, repairing all internal and external injuries. She will also gain a certain amount of Dragon God's bloodline, and her newly formed profound veins, rebuilt after destruction, will have a high probability of directly breaking through their bottleneck and reaching a higher realm."

As the Primordial Azure Dragon finished its explanation, Yun Che's expectant expression instantly turned to one of stupor. He instinctively glanced at Chu Yuechan, only to find her face flushed crimson, her eyes flashing with deep indignation. He stammered, "Primordial Azure Dragon, you mean... you mean..."

"Heh heh, what I've explained is clear enough," the Primordial Azure Dragon said. "This is also why I only told you after you finished merging with the Dragon God's blood. To restore her profound energy, this is the only way. How to proceed is your choice... After it's done, you can summon me anytime."

After the Primordial Azure Dragon finished speaking, the azure-blue eye slowly vanished, and its aura completely dispersed without a trace.

In the dark world, only Yun Che and Chu Yuechan remained. In the extreme silence, they could both hear each other's pounding heartbeats.

Yun Che took a deep breath, and his mind quickly calmed. He knew very well that Chu Yuechan would absolutely not initiate this, nor would she even accept it. Therefore, he had to take the initiative, and he would have to bear all the blame and consequences afterward.

Yun Che picked Chu Yuechan up again, holding her against him. "Little Fairy, you heard the method the Primordial Azure Dragon mentioned just now, right?"

"No..." Chu Yuechan's emotions surged violently. "Even if I die, I absolutely won't..."

"I know," Yun Che said calmly. "Women of your Ice Cloud Immortal Palace live a life of purity, both body and soul as pure as ice and snow. Even in death, they would never willingly allow their bodies to be defiled. But we've been together for so long, especially these past five months, constantly embracing and cuddling. Ask your heart, do you truly hate me holding you like this? If the only person to take your virginity in this life were me, would it truly be so... unacceptable?"

Chu Yuechan's gaze froze, then became misty. Before long, she began to struggle violently again.

"I understand that the sect's prohibitions passed down for generations in your Ice Cloud Immortal Palace, and the decades of deeply ingrained beliefs, make it impossible for you to overcome this mental hurdle... Then, I will help you get through it. You've done nothing wrong, nor have you violated any sect prohibitions; everything is because of me. If, after today, you are willing to be a true woman, I will be responsible for you my entire life. If you choose to leave, I will never bother you. Although I don't know what you will choose, I am certain that you will never willingly remain a cripple for the rest of your life."

After speaking, Yun Che gently set Chu Yuechan down on the ground. He slowly reached out and pulled open the front of her clothes, revealing a large expanse of her snow-white skin.

"No... don't..." Chu Yuechan's eyes trembled with shock. She raised her right arm with all her strength and grabbed his wrist. "If... if you dare do this to me... I will... I will... kill you..."

Yun Che clasped her hand in return. He leaned down and forcefully kissed her lips, silencing her words.

Chu Yuechan's beautiful eyes widened, and she let out muffled sobs. But as her incomparably beautiful upper body was fully exposed beneath Yun Che, her sobs grew weaker and weaker...
