Wang Mu felt very unrestrained at that moment. It was as if the little demon locked within his heart had been unleashed. The sensation was subtle. Wang Mu realized that he might have been influenced by something. Or was it such a rare opportunity that he simply couldn't miss it?

"Of course, I am here to help you resolve the Emotion Poison," Wang Mu said indifferently.

He had just deployed the Four Seasons Yin Yang Palm. By absorbing its power through a form of external Dual Cultivation, and simultaneously activating the slight power of the Yin Yuan Fruit, he had stabilized Heroine Yan's condition. At the same time, the Four Seasons Yin Yang Palm also encompassed the temporal changes of Yin Yang. It produced various powerful Yin Yang principles that Wang Mu, with his current strength, could normally withstand. Furthermore, Wang Mu had also cultivated the Four Seasons Yin Yang Palm and the Yin Yang Harmony Diagram. These were of the same origin as Mu Hongyuan's techniques. When absorbed into his body, the four different types of resulting energies didn't have much destructive impact, but...

Wang Mu slowly walked towards Mu Hongyuan, who now lacked any strength whatsoever.

"That... wait a minute..." Mu Hongyuan's complexion changed slightly as she smiled seductively. "Helping me is naturally a good thing... but... could we change the location?"

As she spoke, Mu Hongyuan bit her lip and threw Wang Mu a moist and enticing look.

Wang Mu smiled. It seemed he knew what Mu Hongyuan was thinking.

You saw Heroine Yan's disgrace, do you think you can escape? Today, you've finally fallen into my hands! Especially you, demoness. You're always trying to bully Heroine Yan. This time, I must leave a deep impression on you!

"No need," Wang Mu mimicked the demoness's slight squint. "Such a nice place, it'd be such a waste to change it."

Mu Hongyuan's heart skipped a beat. She knew this vile man was definitely going to do something awful to her, probably just like what had happened to Heroine Yan.

That Heroine Yan was only beaten... If the Emotion Poison in me loses control, it's really hard to say what will happen to me...

"Are you... are you not afraid that Heroine Yan will kill you afterward?" Mu Hongyuan forced a smile. "Brother Mu, listen to me. Let's change locations; whatever you want, I'll agree."

Change the location, and when I recover some strength, I will certainly teach you a lesson, you bad thing...

"That won't be necessary," Wang Mu said.

For some reason, Mu Hongyuan's aura was inexplicably alluring to him. It was as if his caged self had suddenly seen a key, and that key was on Mu Hongyuan.

...Could it be the Wuji Treasure Book... A realization dawned on Wang Mu.

For days, he had been contemplating this Demon Skill. However, his Taoist Heart prevented him from cultivating it directly, so he could only rely on external forces...

I can use this chance to directly provoke the Emotion Poison in Mu Hongyuan and absorb it into my body... By utilizing the power of the Emotion Poison, I can begin cultivating the Wuji Treasure Book... Despite some risks, this indeed presents an opportunity.

Wang Mu walked to Mu Hongyuan.

"Wait... wait!" Mu Hongyuan panicked a bit.

Wang Mu didn't listen. Just as he had with Heroine Yan, he immediately flipped Mu Hongyuan over.

"Dongfang Mu, you just wait..." Mu Hongyuan gritted her teeth. "Taking advantage of someone's misfortune..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Mu activated the Power of Primordial Wood, producing an arch of lush green vines. He gazed up at the sky. This archway resembled a sliver of a crescent moon in the distant sky, its arc astonishing.

At this moment, Wang Mu hadn't employed the Four Seasons Yin Yang Palm but rather the Mixed Element Mysterious Star Technique, solidifying Mystic Water and Star Flame within his palm. It was similar to the past when he had massaged Mu Hongyuan. Only now, the massage had turned into slaps. He did this to use their combined Mixed Element Power, triggering her Emotion Poison and drawing it into his own body.

Gazing at the mingling water and fire in his palm, Wang Mu narrowed his eyes. Then, using his hand with the impact of a foot, SLAP! He struck down on the crescent-moon-like arch.

This posture was somewhat more difficult than the one he'd used on Heroine Yan. However, because of the Emotion Poison, the greater the difficulty, the easier it was to draw it out.

Nearby, Heroine Yan seemed to have regained her senses. With her head still buried, she turned it slightly, glancing over from the corner of her eye. She looked startled, and her face burned as if on fire. Her eyes, a mixture of cold, angry, and embarrassed, glared at Wang Mu.

The crisp slapping sounds continued, growing louder than before...

Mu Hongyuan was not as silent and enduring as her.

"Dongfang Mu... don't be smug... when you fall into my hands..."

"I will definitely imprison you! Lock you in the Refining Emotion Cave!!"

"I... I..."

Her fragmented voice continued to drift over. However, after a moment:

"Brother Mu, what you're doing won't help me resolve the Emotion Poison," Mu Hongyuan suddenly said softly. "The Emotion Poison requires the Mixed Element Power of both parties to circulate. Like this, you're only provoking it... What exactly are you trying to do?"

"That's exactly what I'm trying to do, provoke the Emotion Poison," Wang Mu said.

Circulating the Mixed Element Power of both parties to neutralize the Emotion Poison was the method used in their previous external Dual Cultivation. But that was too slow, and given Mu Hongyuan's current state, it clearly wouldn't work. In the past, Mu Hongyuan had suppressed this Emotion Poison well; even if she occasionally struggled, external Dual Cultivation could keep it somewhat in check. But now, after her overly intense battle with Heroine Yan, she could no longer control it. Trying to neutralize the Emotion Poison slowly would be too late.

Wang Mu wanted to absorb the Emotion Poison. However, absorbing an Ascension Expert's Emotion Poison by conventional means was impossible.

So, what Wang Mu was deploying now was the Extreme Bliss Leisurely Map. Indeed, it was a secret technique from the Joyful Union Sect, a one-way method derived from the downward revision of the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram.
