Junior sister, I really need to control you

Beneath the crown, was my junior sister's face.

To be precise, she was a junior sister who looked to be over twenty years old. Her eyebrows and eyes had fully matured, and she was incredibly beautiful, but her eyes were always closed.

But then Li Yinsheng shook his head again.

Although my junior sister is also a pretty girl, she is incomparable to the face in front of me.

Although her eyebrows, eyes, and facial features are exactly the same as her junior sister's, in subtle ways, she possesses a beauty and majesty that her junior sister cannot match.

Li Yinsheng could say without hesitation that this was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life.

In her presence, everyone—whether it be her martial uncle, Miss Shangguan, or Chi Ling—would pale in comparison.

He absolutely refused to believe that his junior sister would grow up to be like that.

Even after the crown was lifted, the Empress showed no sign of waking up, remaining as perfect as a jade statue.

Li Yinsheng frowned slightly, about to put his finger down, when he saw the Empress's eyelashes seem to tremble slightly, as if she was about to open them.

But Li Yinsheng didn't have time to see her open her eyes. With a slight tremor of her eyelashes, everything around her suddenly collapsed, all the palace lanterns went out at the same time, and he was plunged into darkness.

Before he lost consciousness, he only heard a woman's soft sigh.

The emotions contained in that soft sigh were so complex that he couldn't discern its meaning, only sensing a desolate atmosphere.

After that sigh, Li Yinsheng suddenly felt as if he had regained the ability to speak. He almost subconsciously shouted out the question he most wanted to ask.

"Who are you?!!!"

Mu Xiaoyu, nestled in Li Yinsheng's arms, moved her chin and whispered in his ear as if in a dream, "Senior brother...it's me, Xiaoyu...your voice is so loud..."

Blinking, Li Yinsheng came to his senses.

He has already left that strange palace and is still communicating with his junior sister in spirit.

Was that just a hallucination? Impossible... No hallucination could be so real, and how could a True Immortal with the title of Imperial Edict create a hallucination out of thin air?

The moment the thought arose in his mind, a surge of information, like a mighty river, appeared out of nowhere in his consciousness.

The amount of information was so vast that even Li Yinsheng's consciousness couldn't help but fluctuate a few times.

Mu Xiaoyu, whose consciousness was closely intertwined with his, was immediately affected and trembled a few times in his arms.

"Senior brother, don't use your divine sense, I feel... so strange..." Mu Xiaoyu's soul murmured in her senior brother's arms.

Li Yinsheng's consciousness stabilized, and he began to sort through the information that was emerging in his mind.

After a long while, a glimmer of clarity flashed in his eyes.

This enormous amount of information turned out to be a cultivation technique specifically for cultivating the soul.

Moreover, it is an ancient cultivation method.

Logically speaking, the ancient methods of cultivation are much cruder than the methods of cultivation today; they only differ in their underlying principles.

However, the ancient cultivation method he obtained far surpassed all the modern methods he had ever seen in terms of detail and sophistication.

Even the Heavenly Yang Transformation Crow Technique given to him by Chi Ling, and the Dao Sheng Technique that he deduced the second Dharma Form from the Grotto Heaven, pale in comparison to this ancient method.

The Secret of the Illusory God.

In a sense, this ancient method is somewhat similar to the Heart Seal Sutra that he once practiced.

There are no fancy or miraculous effects; it simply strengthens the soul.

The difference lies in the fact that the Heart Seal Sutra has no miraculous effects because it is too ordinary.

After Li Yinsheng strengthened his soul with the help of the moon dew, the Heart Seal Sutra was quickly perfected, and then he forgot about it.

In the face of moonlight and dew, the Heart Seal Sutra itself becomes dispensable.

The reason why the Void God Technique has no fancy effects is because its cultivation and strengthening of the soul has reached an unbelievable level.

The complexity of this technique was unlike anything he had ever seen in his life, yet it had no levels or realms, only a single sentence recorded within it—

Emptiness means being unrestrained.

In short, the person who left behind this technique believed that the Void God Technique could be cultivated indefinitely without any upper limit.

Li Yinsheng did not believe that there were truly limitless martial arts techniques in the world, but if such a claim existed, its upper limit must have been unimaginably high.

He was completely unable to judge the upper limit of this illusory god technique based on his current knowledge, but it was certainly far beyond the level of ghost immortals or human immortals.

Holding his junior sister in his arms, even as waves of that wondrous feeling of being connected to her soul surged through him, Li Yinsheng couldn't help but drift off into thought.

Where did this ancient technique, the "Illusory Spirit Technique," come from? And why is it in my junior sister's soul?

And what is that ancient palace? And who is the empress inside that looks so much like my junior sister?

"Senior brother?" Mu Xiaoyu's soul clung tightly to Li Yinsheng, somewhat displeased. "Are you daydreaming?"

In a state of spiritual communion, she could sense Li Yinsheng's emotions and also convey her own emotions to him without reservation.

“Junior sister, our current state should be what is known as spiritual communion,” Li Yinsheng said, holding her in his arms.

Now he understood why Miss Shangguan had said that spiritual communion was a more intimate thing than dual cultivation.

During their spiritual communion, his and his junior sister's thoughts intertwined, almost becoming one, as if they had completely merged.

For the physical body, even close contact is limited; even in a tight embrace, at most the two people's faces are touching.

However, the entanglement between souls will not be missed in the slightest.

However, based on his own experience, spiritual communion and dual cultivation should be different; the two are quite different.

Putting everything else aside, spiritual communication cannot improve one's cultivation level; it can only strengthen the soul.

"Spiritual communion?" Mu Xiaoyu snuggled closer to Li Yinsheng and hummed softly, "The feeling of spiritual communion is so strange, but I like spiritual communion with my senior brother..."

“Now that we have this opportunity, I will teach you a technique for cultivating your soul,” Li Yinsheng said.

"Shall we start cultivating now?" Mu Xiaoyu was a little resistant, not wanting to let go of Li Yinsheng. "How about we study tomorrow? Senior brother, please hold me a little longer. I still want to have a spiritual connection with you..."

“There’s no need to stop. I’ll use this spiritual connection to teach you this technique. Just follow along with me,” Li Yinsheng said.

This can be considered a wonderful aspect of spiritual communion.

The Void God Technique itself is not a cultivation method that relies on spiritual communication, but it can be taught through this method.

However, there are no restrictions on its cultivation. It is possible to cultivate during spiritual communion, but there are no additional benefits compared to normal self-cultivation.

"Then come on, senior brother, teach me." Mu Xiaoyu's soul entwined around Li Yinsheng even more tightly.

……

In a secluded, quiet room.

Sang Ruo stood beside Li Yinsheng and Mu Xiaoyu, a look of worry on her face.

However, the worry on her face was mainly because of Mu Xiaoyu.

She and Li Yinsheng were bound by fate, so if anything happened to Li Yinsheng, she would naturally be able to sense it.

At this moment, in her perception, Li Yinsheng was perfectly fine, and his soul even seemed to have grown stronger.

On the contrary, Mu Xiaoyu's perception was not very clear because Li Yinsheng's divine sense enveloped her.

After a long while, Li Yinsheng finally withdrew his divine sense from Mu Xiaoyu.

Sang Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, then a look of surprise appeared on her face.

“Although Miss is still a real person, her soul… seems to be almost as powerful as that of a Grand Master.” Sang Ruo’s beautiful eyes widened slightly.

Although True Persons whose spiritual sense can rival that of Great True Persons are not so rare as to be extremely rare, such True Persons usually have good cultivation levels themselves, and have already approached or reached the peak of the True Person realm.

The fact that Mu Xiaoyu's divine sense had already approached a higher realm after just breaking through was quite a challenge to her common sense.

Or perhaps... there was something wrong with the common sense that my master instilled in me when he enlightened me? She pondered to herself.

After withdrawing his consciousness and returning to his soul, Li Yinsheng removed his hand from Mu Xiaoyu's head.

Mu Xiaoyu slowly opened her eyes.

Then her face turned bright red in an instant, as if it were about to bleed.

"Senior brother!!! Senior brother!!! I I I I I!!! You you you!!! We...we...just now...waaaah—"

She jumped up suddenly, waving her hands wildly in front of her, her words incoherent and her breathing rapid.

There was no joy on her face at breaking through to a real person; only a shyness that seemed to want to disappear into a crack in the ground.

Having just experienced the fusion of souls in her sea of ​​consciousness, that strange feeling spread throughout her body, to the point that she didn't even think about what it meant.

Even after Li Yinsheng told her that it was spiritual communion, she remained oblivious, still lost in the moment.

It wasn't until the spiritual communion ended and she came to her senses, her mind clearing, that she realized what she had done.

She was no longer a novice in cultivation, although unlike Li Yinsheng, she had Shangguan Ling'er explain what "spiritual communion" was.

But she herself had a sense of just how intimate everything that had just happened was.

"Senior brother...we...we..." She covered her face with her hands, feeling her cheeks burning hot, as if her palms were being scalded.

"Junior sister, you're on fire," Li Yinsheng said, frowning slightly.

"Senior brother, you're still making fun of me! We...we...you're still laughing at me! You bad senior brother!" Mu Xiaoyu was so ashamed that her back went numb. She looked up and glared angrily at Li Yinsheng.

"I'm not kidding, junior sister, haven't you realized you're really on fire?"

Li Yinsheng pointed to the thin layer of Nine Yang Spiritual Flame flickering on Mu Xiaoyu's body and reminded her.

Mu Xiaoyu sat on the ground and buried her face in her knees.

Chapter 209 The Will to Cultivate, to Revitalize the Xuanzhen Temple!

After breaking through to the True Person realm, Mu Xiaoyu hadn't had a proper conversation with Li Yinsheng for three days.

Every time she saw Li Yinsheng, she would blush and shout, "Senior brother, I'm going to cultivate!" and then run away.

Late at night, Mu Xiaoyu was in her bedroom.

Lying on her bed, Mu Xiaoyu rubbed her face.

"My senior brother already said that I encountered a hurdle when I was condensing my soul during my breakthrough, and he did it to help me..."

Her face flushed again, though it wasn't as red as it had been three days ago, but it was still burning hot.
