Upon hearing the instruction to circulate spiritual energy throughout her entire body, the Divine Dragon Empress immediately blushed.
Circulating spiritual energy through one’s whole body was akin to laying all of one’s secrets bare.
If anyone else had said such words to her, she wouldn’t have merely refused; she would have likely slapped them with enough force to send them straight to their demise.
Even though Ye Wushuang was intimately familiar with her, his words still painted her face with a deep shade of crimson.
After all, back when they had swapped bodies, she couldn’t perceive what Ye Wushuang might have done to her form. The saying goes, “out of sight, out of mind.” Since she couldn’t see it, there was naturally no reason for bashfulness.
But now, her consciousness remained within her own body. In such a state, allowing Ye Wushuang’s spiritual energy to wander through her entire being was virtually equivalent to willingly opening her body and heart to him.
If she hadn’t clearly sensed that Ye Wushuang was genuinely sincere in wanting to help her increase her power, utterly devoid of any impure thoughts, the Divine Dragon Empress might not have been able to let go even now.
However, even if she managed to let go, it didn’t mean the Divine Dragon Empress was without any reaction.
Especially when Ye Wushuang’s spiritual energy began to course through her body. The Divine Dragon Empress’s form underwent swift changes.
It started with her face flushing red, then her neck, followed by the skin beneath her neck and around her collar. By the time Ye Wushuang’s spiritual energy had traveled halfway, her entire body was flushed a deep red.
Like a prawn boiled to perfection, her body also involuntarily curved slightly.
This was entirely a natural, reflexive reaction born of her shyness, a reaction Ye Wushuang understood well.
After all, at this moment, Ye Wushuang also felt somewhat warm, his own face growing hot.
However, the sheer magnitude of the Divine Dragon Empress’s reaction was something Ye Wushuang hadn’t anticipated at all.
Because of this, Ye Wushuang asked with concern:
“Your Majesty, are you alright??”
“No… no, I’m fine!!”
“Shall we continue then?”
“Continue… let’s continue!!”
Though shy, the Divine Dragon Empress knew she couldn’t halt her cultivation because of her own bashfulness.
Moreover, traces of Ye Wushuang had already imprinted themselves upon her body and heart.
So, despite her scarlet cheeks, she felt she could persevere.
Hearing her words, Ye Wushuang felt reassured.
The next moment, his spiritual energy began moving even faster.
Before, he had been cautious, testing whether the Empress’s body was the same one he had been familiar with.
Now, sensing no difference from the form he knew, he naturally let loose.
This easing of restraint allowed his spiritual energy to quickly permeate every part of the Divine Dragon Empress’s body.
He gained a complete and thorough understanding of the internal state of her form.
This intimate knowledge made the Empress’s face redder than rouge.
By now, she was struggling to sit upright. If she hadn’t already been seated, her legs would likely have gone weak, causing her to collapse to the ground.
The sensation of spiritual energy suffusing her entire being was simply too extraordinary.
Especially when that energy reached her most private areas, it left her mind utterly blank, unsure of what she was even thinking.
This unique feeling was something even a strong-willed woman like the Divine Dragon Empress couldn’t withstand.
Fortunately, the process of Ye Wushuang’s spiritual energy filling her body concluded swiftly.
Fortunately, Ye Wushuang’s instruction was about to begin, allowing the Divine Dragon Empress to secretly heave a sigh of relief.
“Alright, next comes the instruction on the Immortal Heavenly Art!”
“This teaching is critically important. Once you truly master the Immortal Heavenly Art to its peak, leaving behind a few drops of your True Blood, you can genuinely achieve rebirth from a single drop of blood and attain immortality!”
“Therefore, you must memorize every step I teach you next, without the slightest deviation!”
“Okay, okay!”
Hearing that the formal instruction was about to start, the Divine Dragon Empress forced her spirits to rally once more.
Subsequently, she focused within her body, attentively sensing the circulation of Ye Wushuang’s spiritual energy.
The flow of Ye Wushuang’s spiritual energy was extremely slow, slow enough for the Divine Dragon Empress to easily commit to memory.
Even so, she watched with utmost seriousness.
She knew this concerned not only her power but also her very future.
Thus, their cultivation session soon found its rhythm.
First the first layer, then the second, the third…
In merely half a day, Ye Wushuang had conveyed the circulation method for the eighth layer of the Immortal Heavenly Art to the Divine Dragon Empress.
Then, Ye Wushuang began demonstrating the ninth-layer technique.
He himself knew this ninth layer, but due to his own realm, he hadn’t yet fully entered the ninth layer of the Immortal Heavenly Art, nor completed its corresponding nirvana.
Therefore, Ye Wushuang proactively offered a reminder.
“This ninth layer of the Immortal Heavenly Art is exceptionally crucial. Practicing it will trigger a nirvana!”
“This nirvana is vitally important for you. Not only can it greatly enhance the vitality of your body, allowing you to retain a few drops of your True Blood for future rebirth, but it also offers an opportunity to advance your Ninefold Heavenly Art further through the nirvana process.”
“The two arts complement each other. Once you undergo the ninth-layer nirvana, you will be a genuine powerhouse at the Supreme Realm. Therefore, during this ninth-layer nirvana, you must be extraordinarily cautious, without a single misstep!!”
The ninth-layer nirvana wasn’t just about nirvana; it was the key to entering the Supreme Realm.
During this process, the Divine Dragon Empress would face not only the tribulation of nirvana but also the potential tribulation of ascending to the Supreme Realm.
For the one undergoing the tribulation, this was undoubtedly perilous.
A single misstep could mean losing everything. Hence, Ye Wushuang hoped the Divine Dragon Empress would treat it with utmost seriousness.
The Divine Dragon Empress understood perfectly well, grasping its importance. Thus, with a solemn expression, she nodded and said:
“Rest assured, I will cultivate with the utmost care!!”
“Good. Then, let’s proceed with the cultivation of the Ninefold Heavenly Art now!!”
“Alright!!”
Originally, simultaneously cultivating two heavenly arts would have been immensely difficult.
Even someone as formidable as the Divine Dragon Empress wouldn’t willingly attempt to cultivate two heavenly arts at once. With her talent, achieving that would be exceedingly hard.
But now, with Ye Wushuang’s guidance, the situation was completely different.
With his guidance, everything became simpler.
Even cultivating two heavenly arts simultaneously wasn’t as daunting for the Divine Dragon Empress anymore.
Given a little more time, she was sure to master these two arts swiftly.
Of course, this cultivation process continued to paint the Divine Dragon Empress’s cheeks with a blush.
