Chapter 70: The Arrow on the Bowstring

The Five-Colored Lustful Light is an aphrodisiac with no known antidote. Once afflicted, unless the lascivious urge is completely released, the victim will eventually be consumed by demonic fire, their mind burnt away, reduced to a creature of pure instinct and desire.

"Huo Siyen, you—!"

Qin Feng’s mood was tangled and complex. Across two lifetimes, he had encountered both Yan and Huo Siyen, whose features were identical. That perfect body was etched deep within his soul; to say he harbored no thoughts toward Huo Siyen would be a lie.

Her feverish body writhed restlessly in his embrace, and Qin Feng felt the heat rising within himself as well. The scorching sensation was partly Huo Siyen’s seduction, and partly the aftereffects of absorbing the essence of Ye Wuyin and his companions. Such immense energy must be digested quickly, or his body would surely suffer.

"What should I do?"

A trace of hesitation flickered in Qin Feng’s eyes. Huo Siyen, in her current state, would not allow him the time to absorb the blood and flesh essence, but could he simply stand by and watch her become a mindless fool?

Kindness would solve nothing; Huo Siyen needed release—thus—

"The arrow is nocked, are you not going to fire, Qin Feng? Are you even a man? Do it!"

"If you're a man, take her!"

In his mind, the Celestial Demon’s mocking laughter echoed. Qin Feng shot the demon a fierce glare. "Care to try it yourself?"

The demon snorted coldly. "Unless you turn into a dragon, you could never satisfy me!"

With that, the voice faded away.

Qin Feng curled his lip, then lifted Huo Siyen’s burning form and quickly found a secluded spot, spreading his clothes upon the ground.

…

Qin Feng paused in astonishment, then gave a bitter smile.

By a twist of fate, Huo Siyen had, in her dazed state, crossed the greatest chasm in cultivation: leaping from the Mortal Steel Realm to the Human Steel Realm!

To think she advanced through dual cultivation!

Indeed, the moment of stillness lasted only an instant; then, vast amounts of mystical energy surged toward Huo Siyen like a whirlpool, flooding into her body, then drawn toward her dantian by a vortex within, gradually thickening as it gathered.

"Mystical root? A spell cultivator?"

Qin Feng had never seen Huo Siyen fight, so he hadn’t realized she was a qi cultivator. But thinking it over, if she weren’t, how would an elder of Sword Mountain take her as a disciple?

Qin Feng did his best to cooperate, guiding the mystical energy within Huo Siyen’s body, helping her absorb it.

The mystical energy circulated through their joined bodies, tempering and refining, until Huo Siyen’s dantian was filled to the brim. Suddenly, a droplet of liquid mystical energy formed, and everything slowly came to a halt.

Success!

The liquefaction of mystical energy is the mark of a qi cultivator's advancement into the Human Steel Realm.

Yet, as Qin Feng was lost in thought, Huo Siyen, thanks to her breakthrough, let out a comfortable moan that reignited her desire with overwhelming force.

The physical pleasure soared to the spiritual realm, and their intimate cooperation brought Qin Feng great benefit. Particularly, Huo Siyen’s innate primordial yin was unusually strange; upon entering Qin Feng’s body, it brought a cool, mysterious sensation, causing his veins, bones, muscles, and cells to transform, toughen, widen, and strengthen.

In just an instant, Qin Feng’s cultivation broke through to the second tier, and continued to rise!

Qin Feng was stunned!

Could it be that Huo Siyen possessed a special constitution?

He had read many ancient texts and understood a little about such situations. A rare few female cultivators are born with unique physiques; during their first dual cultivation with a male, their innate primordial yin can transform the man’s constitution, granting incredible effects.

Qin Feng hadn’t expected Huo Siyen to possess such a constitution—this was an unexpected fortune.

However, such wondrous effects typically lie dormant within the male cultivator, only manifesting at pivotal moments with unforeseen results.

Time flowed onward, Qin Feng’s cultivation surged ever higher, but when he reached the threshold of the third tier, he forcibly held himself back. His progress lately had been too rapid; if he leapt directly to the third tier now, his foundation would be unstable, which would bode ill for future cultivation. Thus, despite the immense temptation, Qin Feng restrained himself, focusing all his attention on Huo Siyen, and finally made a decisive strike!

With Qin Feng’s powerful final thrust, Huo Siyen’s body shuddered violently, her ten slender fingers dug deep into his back, leaving several bloody grooves behind…

The storm passed…

Huo Siyen, exhausted and still affected by the aphrodisiac, fell into a brief coma, while Qin Feng remained wide awake.

Looking at Huo Siyen’s flushed face, still tinged with lingering pleasure, Qin Feng’s eyes revealed a trace of helplessness.

It seemed that in this life, he would once again be entangled with this woman…

Past and present, who are you really?

Why—why!

Qin Feng’s feelings were complicated; an indescribable emotion clogged his chest, leaving him unable to find relief.

Tonight, events had transformed with astonishing speed, far beyond Qin Feng’s expectations. Huo Siyen had long since departed from the trajectory of his life, yet fate’s bonds had drawn them together once more…

While Qin Feng pondered how to face Huo Siyen from now on, his expression suddenly shifted.

From the woods came the sound of hurried footsteps.

"Someone’s coming?"
