7: The moonlight shines brightly, and we break through barriers with one heart.

Lin Xuan only felt the wind whistling past his ears as Su Wanqing carried him rapidly through the dense forest at night. She utilized the Moonlight Escape Technique she comprehended after her Bloodline Awakening, transforming into an ethereal streak of light. Her speed far surpassed her usual pace, leaving Qu Feiyan, who was attempting to track them, far behind.

However, Lin Xuan's internal condition grew increasingly worse. The wisp of "Mortal World Charm Fire" planted by Qu Feiyan was extremely insidious, like a parasitic growth. It intertwined with the supreme Yang spiritual power of his Nine Revolutions Golden Body Art and the not-yet-fully-absorbed moonlight essence, constantly provoking and impacting his Meridians and Sea of Consciousness. The scorching Qi current rampaged wildly, his skin turned an abnormal red, his breathing was heavy, veins bulged on his forehead, and his rationality struggled to maintain itself amidst the waves of desire.

Su Wanqing clearly felt his body's burning heat and chaotic aura, and her heart was filled with anxiety. Although her Bloodline had Awakened and her cultivation had greatly advanced, she had no idea how to resolve such a bizarre charming technique. She could only rely on her keen perception of Taiyin Power within her Bloodline to search for a place that could help him suppress the evil fire.

Finally, after passing through a stone forest covered with strange glowing moss, she sensed an extremely secluded spot. It was a mountain cave concealed by thick vines, and pure and gentle moonlight essence fluctuations emanated from within. Its aura was more restrained and tranquil than the previous Immortal Pond.

"This way!" Su Wanqing didn't hesitate, taking Lin Xuan into the cave.

The cave wasn't deep, but it was a world unto itself. At the top was a natural fissure, through which cold moonlight poured down like a silver pillar, illuminating a pool of milky-white water in the center of the cave, no larger than a tabletop. The pool water was shrouded in condensed moonlight spiritual mist, its aura pure and peaceful, as if it could wash away all restlessness.

Su Wanqing helped Lin Xuan, who was almost consumed by lustful fire, to the edge of the pool. At this moment, Lin Xuan's eyes were bloodshot, his gaze struggling. He clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles white from exertion, clearly fighting the evil fire within him with astonishing willpower.

"Lin Xuan, hold on! Circulate your Cultivation Technique and guide the Taiyin Power into your body!" Su Wanqing slowly pushed him into the icy moonlight pool water, then followed him, sitting cross-legged opposite him.

The pool water was bone-chillingly cold, startling Lin Xuan. The remaining clarity seized this sliver of an opportunity, and he immediately circulated the Nine Revolutions Golden Body Art as instructed. The supreme Yang spiritual power surged through his Meridians, fiercely clashing with the charm fire that had invaded his body, and also attracting the pure Taiyin Power from the pool.

However, the situation did not immediately improve. The two forces with vastly different attributes met in his body like fire and water, intensifying the conflict. His face alternated between red and white, his body trembled slightly, and a trace of blood even spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, Su Wanqing no longer hesitated. She stretched out her hands and gently pressed them against Lin Xuan's palms. The next moment, the initially Awakened "Supreme Yin Youying" Bloodline Power within her was completely activated! A spiritual light of moonlight, far purer, vaster, and more ancient than the pool water, flowed gently into Lin Xuan's body through their joined palms, like a gentle tide.

This was not a fusion of carnal desire, but a transmission of the Origin of life and the power of the Dao.

Lin Xuan's entire body trembled violently!

The Taiyin Power transmitted by Su Wanqing was no longer a cold confrontation, but like a mother's hand, gently smoothing out the violent Yang energy and charm fire within him. That wisp of "Mortal World Charm Fire," in the face of this higher-level Grand Yin Origin, melted and refined rapidly like ice meeting the sun, transforming instead into a pure energy that was absorbed by his Physical Body and Divine Soul.

And the supreme Yang spiritual power of his Nine Revolutions Golden Body Art, in its cyclical fusion with this pure Taiyin Power, was no longer restless. Instead, it became even more condensed and harmonious. Yin and Yang complemented each other, Dragon and Tiger converged! An unprecedented sense of comfort and power surged throughout his entire body.

It was as if some barrier within him had been broken, and his aura suddenly soared!

Late Foundation Establishment Stage... Foundation Establishment Peak!

The Nine Revolutions Golden Body Art also seized the opportunity to break through its bottleneck, directly entering the third revolution Realm! His Physical Body strength surged, his bones resonated, emitting a faint golden precious light.

At the same time, Su Wanqing also benefited greatly. As she fully activated her Bloodline Power to help Lin Xuan, her own comprehension of "Supreme Yin Youying" deepened continuously, and her Bloodline Power circulated more smoothly and freely. Her recently Breakthrough Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Realm was completely stabilized, even advancing towards the Late Stage. Between her and Lin Xuan, this unreserved fusion of spiritual power and Bloodline created a Soul connection far deeper than physical intimacy.

Both of their bodies were enveloped by a rich moonlight spiritual light, their auras intertwined, circulating back and forth, forming a perfect Yin and Yang Taiji field within this small Immortal Cave.

After an unknown period, the last trace of charm fire in Lin Xuan's body was completely refined. He suddenly opened his eyes, which sparkled with brilliant light, all redness faded, leaving only clarity and a depth greater than before. He felt the surging power within him and the incredibly mysterious connection with Su Wanqing, and his heart was filled with gratitude and an indescribable sense of intimacy.

Su Wanqing also slowly withdrew her power, her face slightly pale, clearly due to excessive consumption. But the look in her eyes towards Lin Xuan no longer held any coldness or distance, only gentleness and a hint of imperceptible reliance.

"How do you feel?" she asked softly, her voice carrying a trace of tired hoarseness.

"Better than ever." Lin Xuan held her hand, which she hadn't yet withdrawn, feeling the coolness and softness of her palm. He said sincerely, "Thank you, Senior Sister, for saving my life."

Su Wanqing shook her head slightly, wanting to pull her hand back, but Lin Xuan gently held it. Her cheeks flushed slightly, but she no longer struggled, only whispered, "Between you and me, there's no need for thanks."

The cave was silent for a moment, with only the moonlight quietly flowing, and the atmosphere was warm and enchanting.

[Ding! Successfully refined 'Mortal World Charm Fire'! Nine Revolutions Golden Body Art has broken through to the third revolution! Cultivation has increased to Foundation Establishment Peak!]

[Ding! Received 'Supreme Yin Youying' Origin feedback from Su Wanqing, comprehension of Grand Yin Truth has increased!]

[Ding! Bond with target Su Wanqing has increased to 'One Heart'! Spiritual power compatibility greatly enhanced!]

Listening to the System's prompts and feeling the warmth from his palm, Lin Xuan knew that after this life-and-death reliance and shared spiritual power, his relationship with Su Wanqing had reached a new height.

However, just at this tender moment, another anomaly occurred!

"Rumble!"

The entire Secret Realm vibrated violently without warning! Far more intense than any previous time!

Crushed stones fell from the cave ceiling, and outside came a deafening roar like the sky and earth collapsing, along with countless terrified screams.

Both their expressions changed simultaneously.

"What's happening?"
