Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint-Chapter 529 - 178 Sword Practice by the Pond, Yan’s Nest on the Pasture_6

Chapter 529: Chapter 178 Sword Practice by the Pond, Yan’s Nest on the Pasture_6

"Beneath the Cloud Sea of the Sword Sect," Elder Yan said, "you fell from there to here."

Wang Mu hummed in acknowledgment. So it was beneath the Cloud Sea; no wonder the mist was so dense.

"Your Golden Core Formation had just begun, and your injuries haven’t healed. It’s good for you to recuperate here for a while," Elder Yan said. "You shouldn’t go out for now."

Wang Mu opened his mouth, wanting to ask about the situation in the Illusion Realm... After a moment of thought, he decided against it. After all, there were too many details about Elder Yan in the Illusion Realm. He dared not think about it.

Wang Mu currently found Elder Yan’s state somewhat baffling. When he tried to perceive her with his Divine Sense, he could only sense a void. Since she has already found the Great Dao, even if she hasn’t ascended to the Upper Realm, she must have broken through her previous realm, right? In the entire Nine Provinces, there’s probably no one who could be her match now.

If I have to stay, then so be it. The place is rich in Spiritual Energy anyway, perfect for recuperation.

"Tell me everything, spare no detail," Elder Yan said, walking to the side, her back to Wang Mu. "Let me hear about your experiences during the days I was in seclusion after you left the Sword Sect."

"..." Wang Mu.

Spare no detail? Could I really talk about it?

"Just speak. No need to worry," Elder Yan said.

Wang Mu had no choice but to recount. He explained how, after she had entered seclusion, he encountered Mo Xilan and was subsequently trapped on Seven Emotions Island. Wang Mu narrated these events one by one.

"Hmm..." After listening to him, Elder Yan merely hummed softly.

Wang Mu continued, speaking of his later trip to Ling Province—slaying the dragon, the Changqing Tree, and Little Jiao Huo. He hadn’t wanted to mention it, but seeing Elder Yan’s intent, he had no choice but to speak.

"Three lifetimes’ romantic destiny..." Elder Yan paused, saying no more.

Then came his journey to Sealing God Mountain, casting the pearls, and being trapped in the Sea Prison—these events he described in greater detail. As for the subsequent period of cultivation with Miss You, it was too intimate to elaborate on, so he glossed over it.

"You spent such a long time cultivating with her..." However, Elder Yan seemed to sense something amiss. "And nothing happened between you two?" she asked.

"..." Wang Mu.

"No," Wang Mu vowed.

Elder Yan hummed.

Listening to her tone, it felt somewhat similar to the Illusion Realm...

Wang Mu continued, recounting his subsequent experiences with Mu Hongyuan in the City of Wind and Moon. As for matters concerning Brother Qin, Wang Mu only touched upon them briefly. He couldn’t delve into those. Regarding the year he spent with Mu Hongyuan and his return to the Sword Sect to practice swordsmanship, he figured he probably couldn’t hide that. Luckily, at that time, it was only sword practice.

"When you were practicing swordsmanship with her at Heavenly Sword Peak..." Elder Yan suddenly asked, "did you feel anything?"

"No," Wang Mu shook his head. "She doesn’t understand swordsmanship, so I felt nothing. That sword technique... I only feel something when practicing it with you, Elder Yan."

"..." Elder Yan.

Elder Yan turned around, glanced at him, then turned back again. She walked to the side, summoned the Green-blue Sword, and sat cross-legged on it. She seemed to be meditating.

Wang Mu’s brows twitched. The complexion Elder Yan revealed as she turned was slightly rosy. Her cheeks were exceedingly beautiful, lacking their usual aloof and icy detachment, and possessing a bit more of a woman’s softness that complemented her elegantly cold face... Now, as she sat on the sword, her white dress showed no signs of any Heavenly Tribulation. It subtly contoured her figure, outlining the smooth curves of her buttocks, which the Green-blue Sword pressed into clearly visible indentations. Why did it feel so similar to Heroine Yan in the Illusion Realm, even the details?

"Continue speaking."

Wang Mu could only briefly recount his subsequent experiences with Mu Hongyuan, mainly focusing on his pill solidification during that period.

After listening, Elder Yan simply asked, "So, nothing happened with her either?"

"..."

"I’m merely at the Golden Core realm; getting close to her was hardly possible," Wang Mu said.

Elder Yan hummed and asked no further questions.

Next, he spoke of the Heavenly Pride Tournament and his dealings with Mo Xilan. As for the matter of refining someone into a Human Pill, he thought about it but decided against telling Elder Yan. However, he did elaborate on matters concerning the Ancient Immortal and Piao Miaoxu from his time in the Immortal Mansion.

"Hmm..." Elder Yan mused. "So that’s how it is..."

"So..." Elder Yan looked at Wang Mu. "You intend to help her resurrect later? To continue a romantic destiny from a past life?"

"..." Wang Mu.

"Indeed, this is what you should do," Elder Yan said. "At least help her resurrect..."

Hearing this, Wang Mu was somewhat surprised. What does she mean by ’what I should do’? Could it be that it’s really as I had speculated before...?

"Do you know something?" Wang Mu asked.

"I don’t know," Elder Yan replied.

"What state are you in now?" Wang Mu cautiously glanced at her.

"Why do you ask this?"

"Hmm... just wanted to ask," Wang Mu said. "Will you be leaving this realm?"

"Not for the time being." Elder Yan closed her eyes.

Not ascending... After I severed myself back then, could it be that she didn’t ascend? I’m uncertain of what exactly happened. I’ll ask after getting out...

Since Elder Yan wasn’t leaving, Wang Mu inwardly checked the Love Stronger than Gold Diagram in his Sea of Consciousness. In a sense, this diagram is equivalent to a progression guide... Once lit up, it should theoretically mean almost complete mastery... But that’s how it is in games. In reality... with Elder Yan’s attitude, it’s still hard to say... It seems there’s a slight change regarding me, but not much... It might be an act... but what would an accomplished cultivator like her have to gain from pretending? Perhaps this Divine Skill is ineffective against such a high-level cultivator?

Wang Mu looked around and said, "I’d like to walk around." I don’t feel weak. I should see what’s beneath this Cloud Sea.

Elder Yan remained silent, then followed beside him. "As you wish," she said.

Wang Mu nodded and looked around. Beneath the Cloud Sea were dilapidated mountain cliffs and ruins, and, of course, a patch of farmland. This place was also the source of Yunlai Creek.

"Huh..." Wang Mu suddenly saw a familiar scene.

WHOOSH... The sound of water flowing came from ahead, and a Mysterious Pond appeared in his line of sight.

The pond... Wang Mu was startled. "Why is there a pond here?" he exclaimed in surprise, turning to look back at Elder Yan.

Just then, he noticed Elder Yan’s gaze was somewhat evasive as she looked to the side, her cheeks even more flushed than before...

After a few seconds of silence, Wang Mu vaguely understood something. If it is true...

Wang Mu suddenly activated the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram. Mixed Element Power circulated in his heart, and a mysterious breath was drawn out from Elder Yan... That was the Mixed Element Breath formed by the combination of Yin and Yang. Elder Yan certainly hadn’t cultivated the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram; otherwise, she wouldn’t even have had a chance to undergo the Crossing Tribulation. Normally, one can’t gather Mixed Element Breath in the body. And to do so, one must possess both Yin and Yang Qi. Normally, a cultivator’s body only contains innate Yin Qi and Yang Qi... To gather Yin and Yang Breath in the body to form Mixed Element Energy, one must undertake Dual Cultivation... Mixed Element Breath that can restore the source of one’s Primordial Spirit... 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"Just now..." Wang Mu looked at Elder Yan, paused for a moment, summoned a precious sword, and executed the Mixed Elements Heart Sword. "Elder Yan," he asked, "how is my execution of this sword technique?"

Elder Yan turned slightly, lowered her head, and instinctively grasped the Green-blue Sword, her cheeks flushing as red as clouds...

"Very... average..."

"It still needs... more practice with someone..."
