The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 865 Hidden Effects

However, she believed that Meng Hai and others would agree, and the vast majority of female quasi-immortal emperors who had already embarked on their own paths and did not yet have a Daoist partner would agree.

The five Immortal Emperors, including Meng Hai, were all men, and none of them cultivated the Dao of Heartlessness; they all had wives and concubines to varying degrees.

Let them select some suitable female Immortal Kings from among those who do not have a Daoist partner, have a certain hope of breaking through to Quasi-Immortal Emperor, and are willing to do so, and engage in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with them to help them break through to Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

It would not cause any loss to Meng Hai and his side, but would also enhance their strength. In fact, it would be a pleasant surprise for some of them, and the possibility of them refusing would be extremely low.

On the contrary, female quasi-immortal emperors who have already forged their own paths may be unwilling.

They cultivated from weaklings to quasi-immortal emperors, encountering countless geniuses and outstanding individuals along the way, including those of the same or even stronger level. Yet, none of them were moved by their talents, and they remained alone. Naturally, they had their reasons; they would not easily fall for any man, nor would they casually give away their virginity.

However, for cultivators, breaking through to a higher realm is always the deepest temptation. They can cultivate to become Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and even break through to Quasi-Immortal Emperors by forging their own path. Naturally, they have no shortage of aspirations for the Dao.

They have been stuck at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm for a long time. In order to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm, they have tried countless methods and endured countless hardships, but they have been unable to break through.

There are definitely many among them who would do anything to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm.

Let alone the fact that they only need to cultivate Yin and Yang with Li Daoming and suffer little loss other than losing their virginity, even if they were asked to slaughter all their relatives and friends and throw themselves into darkness... as long as they can maintain their individuality and break through to the Immortal Emperor level, many of them would probably be willing.

As for the remaining ones who are not solely focused on the Dao and willing to pay any price to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm? They are basically all concerned for the well-being of all living beings and willing to pay any price to annihilate the strange and dark races.

If they knew that practicing Yin-Yang dual cultivation with Li Daoming would greatly increase their chances of breaking through to the Immortal Emperor realm, thus significantly enhancing their side's power and allowing them to accumulate enough strength to confront or even annihilate the strange dark race, they would most likely not refuse.

Of course, the immense hope of breaking through to the Immortal Emperor realm is also a great temptation for them.

……

Luo Tianxian fell into deep thought, but at this moment, she naturally did not realize that all of this had a premise, which was that Li Daoming's statement that the strange dark race had ten sacrificial ancestors was true.

She seemed to have forgotten this premise, and seemed to have no doubt about the truthfulness of Li Daoming's words, and had instinctively believed him.

At this moment, seeing Luo Tianxian lost in thought, Li Daoming sensed through the unseen connection that she seemed to have gained more confidence, but he could not know what she was thinking.

Naturally, he was unaware that Luo Tianxian actually intended to use his Yin-Yang dual cultivation method to break the deadlock and accumulate enough power to resist or even destroy the strange dark race.

Little did he know that, after some time, Luo Tianxian would prepare a tremendous surprise for him.

After a moment's hesitation, Li Daoming decided to reveal part of his and the Wuji Holy Court's strength to put her at ease.

As for why only part of it was revealed, it wasn't because Li Daoming didn't trust Luo Tianxian and wanted to hide it from her.

In fact, after Luo Tianxian and he engaged in Yin-Yang dual cultivation, he regarded her as one of his own, as someone he could trust. Although Luo Tianxian's cultivation level was high, she was still a woman after all, and she cared a great deal about her chastity. The fact that he had such an intimate relationship with her meant that, regardless of their previous relationship, he would definitely leave the deepest impression on her.

Moreover, he practiced Yin-Yang dual cultivation with Luo Tianxian, using the Yin-Yang dual cultivation method he created.

The Yin-Yang dual cultivation method he pioneered, besides its many beneficial uses for both practitioners, actually has a hidden effect:

That is, a woman who has practiced Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him will instinctively reject intimate contact with other men, and will be influenced by a strange phenomenon, letting down her guard against him, falling in love with him imperceptibly, and trusting him from the bottom of her heart.

The more times you engage in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with him, the deeper your initial feelings for him, and the better your relationship with him... the easier it will be for you to become completely devoted to him.

Of course, this strange influence is not a conversion, and it will not change the temperament of a living being. Although they may fall in love with him and trust him from the bottom of their hearts, their temperament, principles, likes and dislikes will not be changed.

If he does something that they find unacceptable or that violates their principles, they might just turn against him and cut ties with him completely.

The efficacy of the Yin-Yang dual cultivation method was not originally present; rather, it was something he deliberately modified later.

The reason he altered the Yin-Yang dual cultivation method in this way was to avoid being cuckolded and to maintain harmony in his own backyard.

He had eight Daoist partners and tens of thousands of concubines. He was confident that his Daoist partners would never betray him, but he was not so confident about his concubines.

Not all of his concubines were devoted to him; they were not all willing to become his concubines to serve him because they liked or admired him.

A significant number of them were willing to become his concubines to serve him, in order to climb to a higher realm, for the sake of their families and sects, for... various other reasons.

After they become his concubines, they serve him along with others. If he is not busy with other things, he will engage in Yin-Yang dual cultivation with them once or twice every ten thousand years. However, if he is busy with other things, he may not see them for tens of thousands of years.

Moreover, aside from a few who were favored and paid attention to by him, such as Si Qi, Jian Yi, Zi Wei, Ji Zi Yue, Yan Ru Yu, Zi Xia, Huo Lin Er, the Golden Heavenly Maiden, and the Dragon Girl...

He would spend more time and energy on them, occasionally accompanying them to travel the Boundless Imperial Realm and letting them experience new things...

But with the vast majority of his other concubines, he had only one thing with them: Yin-Yang dual cultivation.

Although he will not restrict their freedom and confine them to the ninth heaven of the Boundless Emperor Realm, waiting for his favor, as long as they do not violate any principles, they can participate in the affairs of the Boundless Holy Court and do whatever they want.

However, a very small number of them are somewhat tired of their lives, and some even yearn for the kind of love that is mutual, supportive, and deeply moving.

Although he has loved ones such as the Ruthless Empress, Ye Yixian, Ye Yunxian, Ye Liuxian, Xia Qinghuang, Jiang Qianxi, Kong Lin, and Xin Hua, he does not include them in his love for her; he cannot give them the love they desire.

But he wouldn't indulge them, much less generously say he'd set them free to pursue their love. He wasn't that generous, nor was he willing to put himself in that position.
