Dual Cultivator Reborn [System In The Cultivation World] Chapter 1025: Becoming a Cultivator
Previously on Dual Cultivator Reborn [System In The Cultivation World]...
Inside Yohan’s chamber, Ana commenced absorbing Yohan’s yang Qi under his watchful eye. Initially, the process seemed normal, but soon, a peculiar sensation overtook her. Beads of sweat on her skin began to dissipate, transforming into wisps of smoke as if her body were igniting. Her formerly pale complexion flushed a deep crimson. A foreign surge of power coalesced within her Dantian, circulating in a steady rhythm.
She endured a searing, sharp discomfort, feeling as though her very being might shatter. The potent energy around her Dantian threatened to consume everything, leading to a terrifying fear for her life. Her heart pounded erratically, and her breaths grew shallow. Despite her urge to open her eyes and implore Yohan for assistance, an unexpected turn of events occurred just as she was about to speak. The agonizing pain she experienced began to recede from her body.
Her entire form was embraced by a foreign energy, which felt remarkably soothing and tranquil in stark contrast to the wild, untamed Qi that had been raging within her.
"Fear not... merely concentrate on cultivating the yang Qi flowing through you. You are on the cusp of success," Yohan's voice resonated within Ana's mind, urging her to maintain her focus on cultivation. Bolstered by his reassuring words and the comforting warmth enveloping her, she redoubled her efforts to cultivate his yang Qi within her body.
After an interval of thirty minutes, her entire physique shuddered, unleashing a formidable shockwave that rippled through the room before dissipating upon impact with the surrounding barriers. The phenomenon was brief in duration.
Ding!
[Individual Ana has transcended her mortal limitations and attained the initial stage of the Body Awakening realm]
Ding!
[The ancestral seal of your lineage has been successfully imprinted upon the body of individual Ana]
One after another, two notifications sounded within Yohan’s consciousness. The first signaled Ana's successful initiation into the world of cultivation, while the second confirmed the permanent engraving of his family’s seal upon her.
She was now unequivocally a part of his lineage, intrinsically linked to Yohan. A delicate tattoo of a dragon materialized on Ana’s lower back.
"Congratulations, Ana. A most welcoming embrace into the realm of cultivators," Yohan’s voice echoed in Ana’s mind. A thrill coursed through Ana upon hearing his words; she longed to embrace Yohan and express her gratitude for this chance to become a cultivator. She had never possessed any aptitude for cultivation; she was merely an ordinary mortal destined to succumb to the passage of time. However, her transformation into a cultivator now presented the opportunity to defy her predetermined fate—a chance to cultivate and extend her life indefinitely by Yohan's side.
"Our work is far from concluded. A substantial reserve of Yang Qi remains within you, with only about thirty percent having been utilized for your initial breakthrough. This remaining seventy percent must be purged from your system. Until this task is complete, you shall take no respite."
Ana was taken aback by Yohan's stern declaration. Her desire to celebrate her newfound cultivator status with an embrace was met with Yohan's unyielding demeanor, more akin to a strict mentor displeased with a minor accomplishment.
"Later, you may request anything your heart desires as recompense for your efforts. However, our immediate priority is the elimination of the surplus yang qi from your body," Yohan murmured, catching sight of Ana's crestfallen expression, a gentle smile playing on his lips.
"I may ask for anything at all?" she whispered, her voice trembling slightly. Yohan affirmed her inquiry with a nod, assuring her that any request within his capabilities would be readily granted.
With this assurance, Ana wholeheartedly dedicated herself to mastering the intricacies of cultivation. At this precise moment, Yohan was present to lend his unwavering support and impart his knowledge—a rare and invaluable opportunity for her. Aware of his demanding schedule and the multitude of companions he currently had, she recognized that such dedicated attention would likely not be available to her again. With this realization firmly in mind, Ana resumed cultivating the residual yang Qi within her body, guided by Yohan.
As she recommenced her cultivation, Yohan settled behind her, offering support by placing his palms firmly against her back. His hands emanated a brilliant azure energy that flowed into Ana's body. He anticipated that by processing the remaining yang Qi, she would ascend to the intermediate stage of the Body Awakening realm. Yohan marveled at the potency of his divine yang qi; its richness had amplified immensely with his advancement to the Heavenly Soul realm. A single session of dual cultivation with Ana had not only propelled her to the initial level of the Body Awakening realm but also set her on a swift path toward becoming an intermediate-level cultivator within mere hours.
Yohan was filled with elation upon realizing the potent effects of his yang Qi; it far surpassed his wildest imaginings. He was, without a doubt, a formidable presence, an anomaly capable of upsetting the established order of this world. It was no wonder that figures like Elaine and that enigmatic woman manipulating his aunt were intent on him.
For a fleeting moment, a daunting notion surfaced in his mind. What if he were to employ his divine yang Qi to transform every single slave he had liberated thus far? Tens of thousands of women were currently under his protection. If he offered them the opportunity to cultivate, surely no sane individual would refuse. He swallowed hard, contemplating the sheer magnitude of his potential strength and influence—an entire legion of cultivators, bound by his ancestral seal and unwavering loyalty.
"Forget it, what the hell am I even thinking about... it's just like that woman said..." Yohan snapped back to reality, the image of the mysterious woman who had appeared within the Nichole clan's territory, grasping his face between her palms, flashing in his memory.
"As much as I might find this concept appealing, I am not someone who treads that path. I have no desire to become a person consumed by the urge to dominate everything. That is not who I am..." Yohan exhaled deeply, striving to regain control of his surging emotions, which had become erratic following Ana's remarkable progress. In this moment, he felt akin to a creator, forging a potent weapon and unleashing it upon the world.
Should this fact become known, the entire world would undoubtedly converge upon him, seeking to end his life.
*Ding!*
[Individual Ana has broken through the second stage of the body awakening realm]
*Ding!*
[Individual Ana has broken through the third stage of the body awakening realm]
_
[Individual Ana has broken through the fourth stage of the body awakening realm]
_
[Individual Ana has broken through the fifth stage of the body awakening realm]
_
[Individual Ana has broken through the sixth stage of the body awakening realm]
One notification after another chimed in Yohan's consciousness, drawing him from his internal contemplation back to the present. Ana had surpassed all expectations, progressing through numerous minor stages and reaching beyond the mid-stage of the body awakening realm.
"You did it. Truly excellent work, Ana." Yohan rejoiced, knowing she had absorbed every last bit of his yang Qi, leaving nothing untainted.
It was Ana herself who had undertaken the arduous task, largely unaided by him. He felt immense pride in her, recognizing her innate talent and rapid learning capacity, believing she might one day eclipse her contemporaries.
"Thank you for everything, young master... I feel profoundly different, and it's all due to you!" Ana's eyes fluttered open, and she immediately surged into Yohan's embrace, her face alight with excitement.
"I am certain you feel changed, my dear. After all, you are now a cultivator at the mid-level of the body awakening realm," Yohan replied, holding her tenderly. Ana gazed at him with adoration, he returned her gaze with a smile, and in the very next instant, their lips met as they immersed themselves in a world of shared pleasure—commencing another session of their dual cultivation practice.
