“Hehe! What a day, finally had some fun!” Mu Lin was exhausted, panting heavily.
“Hey! You guys, still got some strength left? How about another round?” Mu Lin approached the group, speaking with a grin. Throughout the fight, he had only dodged without retaliating. Confident in his formation and abilities, he had already figured out their techniques of using spiritual energy during the battle.
“Hehe! You’re done already? No fun, had enough, right? Well then, now it’s my turn to play with you. Watch my lightning ability!” Mu Lin released a surge of electricity from his hands, enveloping the three on the ground.
The three on the ground trembled violently, their hair standing on end, their clothes emitting a burnt smell. Though they desperately wanted to get up, their spiritual energy had been completely drained, leaving them no strength at all. They could only stare in shock at this devil who had moments ago been running from their attacks, barely escaping being defeated—who now seemed so energetic and lively. They couldn’t understand it at all. How frustrating!
Mu Lin zapped them again, finally releasing his pent-up anger. Seeing their pitiful state, he considered setting them on fire, but the smell would probably be unbearable even for him. Another few shocks and these guys would probably meet their maker. He wasn’t about to do anything that would be a losing proposition!
Tonight, if it weren’t for their special abilities, he wouldn’t have endured such humiliation. He gathered the four of them together and deactivated the formation. After hours of fighting, as Mu Lin’s true yuan energy diminished, the formation began to falter, making this place unsafe.
He gathered his remaining yuan energy to prepare for teleportation. By now, the outside was likely heavily guarded, and if he walked out directly, he might be shot. That wouldn’t harm him, but these human bombs might be destroyed. Taking them with him would cost him a significant amount of yuan energy tonight.
Mu Lin reappeared with the four in a bushy area on the outskirts, close to dawn. He used his soul-searching technique again. These people were probably well-known figures in New York’s underworld. If he turned them into his followers, it would be like hanging a sign saying “300 taels of silver here.” He directly extracted their memories, even if it turned them into idiots—it was better than losing his life. Besides, they were already part of the underworld; he had to be prepared to retaliate at any moment. Following such a criminal group, these people probably weren’t much better anyway. After extracting their memories, Mu Lin’s yuan energy was nearly depleted.
As the sky began to brighten, Mu Lin first retrieved a set of clothes from his ring and changed, removing all traces of his disguise. Finally, he took out a talisman for earth teleportation and vanished, reappearing in the room of his clinic.
At this time, Finney and the others had finished their cultivation and were preparing to practice physical exercises. Seeing the formation set by Mu Lin, they knew he had gone out on some business. Because this was their first time in a foreign place, they all waited in Mu Lin’s room.
When Mu Lin suddenly appeared in the room, the three beautiful girls stood up, ready to ask where he had gone the previous night. Although Mu Lin had changed clothes, his face was pale, his hair loosely tied, and he looked somewhat listless—clear signs that something had happened. Finney and the others forgot their questions, each rushing to hug him with concern.
In reality, Mu Lin’s yuan energy was nearly completely drained. First, he had fought fiercely for over an hour inside the formation, depleting his energy. The biggest drain was teleporting several people at once. If not for his specific purpose, he would never have done such a laborious thing.
Now, with his yuan energy greatly depleted, his golden elixir had gradually lost its golden hue, becoming somewhat dull. The internal yin-yang balance formed during his cultivation was also disrupted. Mu Lin was now in a state of excessive yang, radiating a strong masculine aura. Due to the embrace from Finney and the others, his life-force magnetic field unknowingly enveloped the three girls’ life-force fields, while his eyes unconsciously turned toward the three women.
Mu Lin’s eyes now seemed somewhat dull, his gaze dim. Yet in his eyes was a deep understanding and yearning for life, a lingering affection for this world, and a longing for the unknown. Like a magnet, his gaze irresistibly drew the three pairs of beautiful eyes.
In the lives of these three young girls, they had mostly experienced simple and beautiful things. They had never truly contemplated the fragility and hardships of life, let alone experienced the darkness of society. Now, in Mu Lin’s gaze, they perceived his love for life, his care for all beautiful things, his yearning for great power, and his pursuit of the Dao. In an instant, it felt as though they had lived through everything Mu Lin had experienced.
Everything unfolded so naturally. Mu Lin’s innate pursuit of the Dao instinctively drove him to repair his damaged foundation more urgently. Unconsciously, the cultivation technique he practiced emitted a powerful radiance like the sun. And the three girls, like moths drawn to a flame, rushed toward Mu Lin.
First was Finney. When Mu Lin and Finney became one, Finney couldn’t help crying out in pain from his size, tears unconsciously streaming down her cheeks. Mu Lin had already lost control of his actions, moving purely by instinct. Finney’s internal yin energy rapidly restored Mu Lin’s yuan energy, and their combined life-force magnetic field grew even stronger. They opened their hearts and minds completely to each other, merging their consciousnesses.
Finney felt her entire being burning, an uncontrollable excitement spreading throughout her body. The intense emotions made her want to completely merge into him, while inwardly she felt an inexplicable unity with him. It was an intense and boundless feeling. She felt that everything about herself was no longer under her control, rising and falling with his movements. In this storm of love, the outside world raged like a storm, yet within her heart, there was an unexpected peace.
A powerful life-force magnetic field enveloped the room. Silia and Kelly also felt their shared joy. Losing control of their minds, they couldn’t help but step forward, tightly embracing the couple in their dual cultivation, sharing in their blissful sensations.
Mu Lin’s power was hundreds of times stronger than Finney’s. Soon, Finney’s body and mind reached the peak of their dual cultivation. Her virgin yin essence began uncontrollably flowing into Mu Lin. Mu Lin then sent back into Finney the yin essence he had refined with his yang energy. Screaming in ecstasy, Finney had no strength left to move her body. However, her cultivation had advanced significantly through this dual cultivation—equivalent to thirty years of her own practice, matching the progress of Mu Lin’s two stewards.
Yet, Finney’s yin essence alone was far from sufficient to satisfy Mu Lin’s rampant yang energy. Next, Mu Lin engaged in dual cultivation with Silia and Kelly.
After tidying up the limp bodies of the three women, placing them gently on the bed and covering them with blankets, and picking up the scattered clothes on the floor, Mu Lin began to meditate. He first examined his dantian internally. The previously dull elixir had regained its original luster, even slightly larger in size. Checking his power, Mu Lin discovered a significant increase in his cultivation. Previously at the lower stage of early golden elixir, he was now nearly breaking through, his entire body brimming with strength. The first rays of the morning sun fell upon Mu Lin, casting a golden glow over his body. The three women on the bed gazed at him, entranced, their minds relaxing as they gradually drifted into sleep.
