130: Chapter 130 Want to try out the immense spiritual power of the Golden Core stage?

Mo Zixing slowly opened his eyes, meeting Liu Qingyan's gentle gaze right on cue.

Liu Qingyan was looking down at him, her long eyelashes fluttering gently, her eyes filled with tenderness.

Mo Zixing raised his hand and gently brushed aside the few strands of silver hair hanging by her cheek.

With a thought, Liu Qingyan's information interface quietly unfolded in his mind.

His gaze swept across the Luck column on the interface.

In the Acquired Luck column, that black-quality trait was still lying there quietly:

[end of lifespan (Black): Vitality continues to decline, Divine Soul constantly dissipates. If there is no Realm Breakthrough or acquisition of life-extending items, remaining Lifespan is less than twenty days. Death is certain then, with no possibility of reversal.]

The countdown had changed from the initial thirty days to the current twenty days.

Time was not very generous.

Mo Zixing had not forgotten this trait.

Previously, he had always felt that with his help, Liu Qingyan's Cultivation speed would surely be enough for her to achieve a Golden Core Breakthrough within thirty days.

Extending her Lifespan by breaking through to the Golden Core Stage was basically a sure thing.

That was why he hadn't been in a rush to use the System's abilities.

Later, Sect Master Bai Ruotong arrived.

The jadeification problem on her body could not be solved through conventional means.

Mo Zixing had used the Trait Masking Function on this Little Sect Master, temporarily suppressing her jadeification problem.

Because of this back and forth, the problem with this trait on Liu Qingyan had instead been dragged out until now.

"If only I could use this black trait as a consumable for Against Heavens Fate," Mo Zixing thought to himself.

The System's trait stealing function could strip traits from others and make them his own.

However, this function had a rather harsh prerequisite: it required the other party's hatred towards him to reach the maximum value.

He had always felt this requirement was extremely troublesome.

Especially when the other party did not have destiny luck, the hatred bar wouldn't even be displayed.

He couldn't even judge the progress.

If this function wasn't updated, it would be obsolete. It couldn't be used many times at all.

Mo Zixing sighed in his heart and looked back at the very top of the interface, beside Liu Qingyan's name.

In the favorability bar, those five full red hearts were shining brightly.

To make her reach maximum hatred? That was simply a fantasy.

Mo Zixing tried to operate it silently in his mind, wanting to see if he could forcibly use the stealing function on that black-quality [end of lifespan] trait under these circumstances.

Unfortunately, the trait didn't react at all.

The interface remained completely still.

"What are you thinking about, so engrossed?" Seeing him staring at her the whole time, Liu Qingyan couldn't help but gently pinch his cheek and ask softly.

Mo Zixing came back to his senses.

He reached out to have her bend down, then raised his head to kiss her on the lips: "Nothing, just thinking about some things."

"Is there anything I can help with?" Liu Qingyan extended her finger to gently trace his chest and smiled faintly: "No matter what it is, I am willing to help you."

Mo Zixing shook his head, his tone slightly teasing: "It is possible that Revered Master could help, but it is unlikely that Revered Master can help."

"You, you, stop keeping me in suspense." Liu Qingyan pouted and glared at him with some dissatisfaction: "What exactly is the matter? Tell me."

Mo Zixing looked into her serious eyes, was silent for a moment, and asked softly: "If I asked you to hate me right now, and I mean hate me a lot, could you do it?"

"Hate you?" Liu Qingyan's face was filled with bewilderment, and she stared blankly at Mo Zixing.

In her mind, memories of their time together involuntarily surfaced.

From the first time she met Mo Zixing.

To seeing him in the spotlight at the Inner Sect Assessment.

Then taking him in as a Disciple of Qingdan Peak and teaching him Alchemy personally.

Then the two of them venturing into the Secret Realm together.

Fighting Yao Beasts together.

He was her only Personal Disciple.

He was also the only person she had ever loved.

Even after she later learned of his relationships with Su Li and Jiang Yuwei.

Even if she had felt aggrieved and sad in her heart.

She could never generate even a shred of hatred towards Mo Zixing.

"I... I cannot do it." Liu Qingyan shook her head, her voice very light, but the words she spoke were incomparably firm: "I will never hate you."

Hearing her say this, Mo Zixing couldn't help but smile gently.

Such a Revered Master was also quite alluring.

He sat up and turned his body around.

He reached out and pulled Liu Qingyan into his arms, hugging her tightly.

Liu Qingyan also hugged him back tightly, burying her face in his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.

After a long while, she finally raised her head, looking at Mo Zixing with some unease, and asked in a low voice: "Zixing, why would you have that kind of thought?"

"Is it because I haven't done something well enough, making you unhappy?"

"No, you are very good." Mo Zixing gently stroked her silver hair, his tone carrying a hint of heartache, half-truth and half-falsehood: "I was just thinking about how to solve the problem of your end of lifespan, Revered Master."

"That matter." Hearing this, Liu Qingyan subconsciously touched her temples.

She thought for a moment, and a helpless smile appeared on her face: "I have already come to terms with it a bit."

"The Medicinal Pill I refined was to resolve the medicinal power accumulated in my Meridians from years of Alchemy.

Even if it turned out like this, it was caused by my own choices."

"And." She paused, a slight blush appearing on her cheeks, and her voice became even quieter: "Now that I have you helping me, I believe I will definitely be able to achieve a Golden Core Breakthrough and extend my Lifespan."

"I still want to be able to stay with you always, and I also want... to catch up to your pace a little more."

"This feeling..." Liu Qingyan said, actually becoming a bit shy.

Feeling? Emotion? Listening to her words that were almost a confession, Mo Zixing's thoughts drifted to other places.

Favorability and hatred could both be considered some kind of intense emotion.

So, whether the hatred value counts as maximum, what exactly is it judged by? Is it based on the intensity of the emotion?

"Hiss, you have reminded me." A ridiculous thought suddenly popped into Mo Zixing's mind.

His eyes lit up, he held Liu Qingyan's shoulders with both hands, and looked at her with burning eyes.

Liu Qingyan was a bit embarrassed by his gaze and slightly turned away her flushed face: "What is it?"

"Nothing, it's just that your words inspired me." Mo Zixing's mouth curled into a wicked smile.

It wouldn't hurt to try anyway.

By the way, he could also push Liu Qingyan's Cultivation a bit higher.

So why not just try it directly?

Mo Zixing leaned over to her ear, his seductive breath brushing against her earlobe: "Revered Master, do you want to try what my vast Spiritual Power of the Golden Core Stage feels like?"
