Chapter 675: The Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Technique: Good Deeds Bring Good Fortune!
by xennovel“So this is the effect of the Misty Dragon Nirvana Pill. Destruction before rebirth, unrivaled under heaven.”
Though Lu Changsheng had fallen unconscious, his spirit remained aware, clearly sensing his body’s condition.
His blood energy and magical power were depleted, flesh and bones shattered, meridians and dantian damaged, and his Golden Core foundation dim and lifeless.
If not for his Chaos Body, Undying Golden Body, and the Misty Dragon Nirvana Pill, anyone else would be either dead or crippled beyond recovery.
But with his Chaos Body and the Misty Dragon Nirvana Pill, even death couldn’t claim him now.
Not only could he slowly recover through his Spirit Body and Undying substance, but he could also fully release the power of the Misty Dragon Nirvana Pill for rapid restoration.
However, in his current state, the pill’s power erupted violently, unable to achieve the nirvana transformation and rebirth effect.
It would be best to wait for the pill’s nirvana power to flow through his body, reshaping his flesh, tendons, bones, skin, organs, meridians, and dantian to become more solid and resilient, before fully releasing and exploding the pill’s power for a complete rebirth and transformation.
“I wonder how Qingluan Zhenren will treat me now?”
Lu Changsheng’s spirit connected with the Substitute Life Charm in his mind, wanting to know how Qingluan Zhenren would treat his savior.
After all, his previous display of combat prowess, slaying True Lord Tiancang, and the storage rings obtained from the Purple-robed Elder would tempt any cultivator.
And now, he lay dying before her.
“Am I testing human nature?”
A thought flashed through Lu Changsheng’s mind, feeling as if he was now testing Qingluan Zhenren’s character.
At this moment, he sensed changes in the world’s energy around him, the ‘whooshing’ sound of spatial turbulence disappearing, guessing that he and Qingluan Zhenren had left the Great Void.
Not long after, he felt himself lying on a cold, hard stone bed, a slender hand resting on his chest.
“Hum!”
The Sun-Moon Yin-Yang Mirror in Lu Changsheng’s embrace instantly trembled, flying out on its own and radiating the light of sun and moon.
The mirror’s surface reflected an expressionless girl, looking at Qingluan Zhenren’s pale and weak face, disheveled black hair, and haggard, tired eyes.
“Hmm!?”
Seeing the mirror flowing with sun and moon essence and yin-yang light before her, and Ah Wu in the mirror, Qingluan Zhenren was suddenly startled, her hair standing on end.
Though the mirror didn’t reveal much energy, just looking at it gave her a sense of extreme danger.
It seemed that if she harbored any ill intentions towards Lu Changsheng, the mirror before her would protect its master and strike her down.
A spiritual treasure!
This was undoubtedly a top-tier spiritual treasure, a priceless artifact!
“This…”
Qingluan Zhenren was shocked, never expecting Lu Changsheng to have such a trump card after his previous outburst. It was truly terrifying.
“I’m only trying to save him,” Qingluan Zhenren said, glancing at Lu Changsheng on the stone bed, his handsome features pale as paper, eyes tightly shut, breath weak, seemingly on the brink of death.
Though her face was pale and lacked color, her sharp, well-defined features remained keen and upright, showing no sign of weakness.
Ah Wu didn’t speak, just silently watching Qingluan Zhenren.
“Ah Wu.”
Sensing the external fluctuations, Lu Changsheng’s spirit conveyed a thought to Ah Wu, indicating that such precautions were unnecessary.
Seeing the mirror slightly move aside, its energy still locked onto her, Qingluan Zhenren’s bloodless red lips parted as she spoke, “Fellow Daoist Yangming, I, Mu Qingfeng, have always been clear about gratitude and grudges, repaying kindness and avenging wrongs.”
“For today’s great kindness, I have no way to repay it fully. I can only offer the ‘Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Technique’ as temporary compensation. If there’s any offense, please forgive me.”
As the words fell, Lu Changsheng heard a rustling sound.
If he had opened his eyes or extended his divine sense, he would have seen Qingluan Zhenren’s battered and damaged armor disappear, her cyan robe embroidered with phoenix patterns sliding off along with ribbons and garments.
Under the illumination of the Sun-Moon Yin-Yang Mirror, one could see that her snow-white skin and jade-like body now lacked color, covered in many wounds, as if the most beautiful jade in the world had been chipped and scratched, a sight that pained the heart.
Yet even so, this body was exquisitely beautiful, like a work of art crafted by heaven, every curve filled with unparalleled allure.
Especially her proudly erect and ample chest, the smooth lines of her flat waist, and her plump, powerful, straight legs.
“The Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Technique?”
Lu Changsheng didn’t know what this divine ability or secret technique was.
But the rustling sound just now was very familiar to his ears.
The next moment, he felt jade-like slender hands continue to fall on his chest, opening and removing his tattered robes.
“Could it be…”
As the robes were removed, Lu Changsheng felt a surge of scorching magical power flow into his dantian and lower abdomen, his depleted blood energy slowly reviving, yang energy rising.
“???”
As a physician who had saved many lives and treated numerous people, Lu Changsheng instantly knew what Qingluan Zhenren was about to do.
She was going to perform dual cultivation to heal him! Having always been the one to help others heal, now being healed in this manner, Lu Changsheng felt an indescribable strangeness in his heart.
Thinking of Qingluan Zhenren’s usual attire as a dashing young master, sometimes solemn and stern, sometimes cold and domineering, sometimes graceful and unrestrained, and her earlier appearance in armor wielding a great halberd like a female war god, now healing him in this way… Lu Changsheng felt as if he were dreaming.
After all, this was Qingluan Zhenren, the top independent cultivator of the Jiang Kingdom, a legendary practitioner.
The image of her facing five Nascent Soul cultivators alone like a peerless female war god was still fresh in his mind.
And now… Lu Changsheng’s remaining spirit consciousness told him this was not a dream, but reality.
As his yang energy rose and his state became erect, Lu Changsheng felt a slender jade hand grasp his soft ribs, and then… “Mmm~”
Qingluan Zhenren lowered her head, gazing at the handsome young man before her, his chest and heart glowing with an increasingly bright crimson light, visible through his snow-white skin, like a heart burning with red flames.
When the heart seemed to soar into the nine heavens like a phoenix, reborn in flames, Qingluan Zhenren moved downward, her delicate body trembling slightly, her high, straight nose letting out a soft moan, her bloodless lips parting slightly.
“Puff!”
With a crisp, muffled sound and a heavenly, soul-stirring enveloping sensation, Lu Changsheng’s prone body instinctively trembled, wanting to open his eyes and wake up.
But remembering his early years of helping his wife Lu Miaoge heal, he knew that at this moment, it was best not to speak.
After all, a physician’s heart is like that of a parent, but this kind of treatment process would still be somewhat embarrassing.
“Yiii!”
Just then, a beautiful, clear, and melodious phoenix cry resounded through heaven and earth.
Crisp and pleasant to the ear, beautiful and magnificent, like the best notes in the world, heavenly music!
Lu Changsheng’s weary Taiyi Spirit became clear and tranquil in this moment, peaceful and serene, immersed in the heavenly music.
But the bone-deep, soul-stirring sensations from his body kept him somewhat conscious, and in his hazy state, he seemed to see a brilliant, colorful, and supremely beautiful phoenix soaring in the sky, radiating the light of the five virtues.
“Is this the Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Technique?”
Lu Changsheng felt a rich, intense vitality surge into his body, through his limbs and organs, then permeate his meridians, bones, internal organs, and dantian. His entire being felt as if he were in the womb, wrapped in warm flames, nourished and incredibly comfortable.
“Indeed, good deeds bring good fortune!”
Lu Changsheng calmly experienced the sensation.
However, after a moment, a question arose in his mind.
Why had the movement stopped? The night was like water, silent and still, the entire world seemed to be immersed in a deep tranquility.
On a mountaintop, a girl with ink-black hair and cyan feather patterns on her forehead sat cross-legged at the cliff’s edge, bored.
Her face was delicate and adorable, her pale little face like the purest white jade carefully carved, emitting a soft glow.
Her willow-like eyebrows, curved like cyan wings, were slightly raised, giving an impression of vivacity and liveliness. Her eyes were like brilliant cyan jewels, clear and bright with a hint of mystery. In a flash, it seemed as if the shadow of a phoenix danced within them.
The girl seemed to sense something and suddenly turned her head, looking towards a nearby cave.
After silently observing for a moment, she wrinkled her delicate and cute nose, then lightly pursed her lips glowing with cyan jade light. Following her master’s orders, she stood up to patrol the surroundings.
She wore a loose, deep cyan feather robe adorned with many intricate and complex ornaments and jewels. As she moved, the cyan jade necklace at her collar and the cyan jade bracelets on her wrists and ankles swayed gently, producing crisp sounds like the call of a phoenix.
At this moment, inside the cave, the Sun-Moon Yin-Yang Mirror shone like an intertwining sun and moon, illuminating the cave with bright yet soft light.
Qingluan Zhenren’s snow-white, exquisite body, glowing with a crimson light, was breathtakingly beautiful under the sun and moon’s radiance.
Like a sun goddess, her graceful and charming figure was enough to make anyone in the world emotional and their blood surge.
Feeling the heat of their bodies, tightly connected, even though Qingluan Zhenren had mentally prepared herself, her body still trembled involuntarily, her slender hands unconsciously pressing firmly on Lu Changsheng’s chest.
After a moment, when Qingluan Zhenren had somewhat adapted to the situation, she continued to operate her technique with a stern expression, preparing for the next stage of dual cultivation, activating her Heavenly Phoenix Yin essence.
Thinking of how she had obtained the Heavenly Phoenix Feather from Lu Changsheng, condensed the Heavenly Phoenix bloodline, and was now using this bloodline and Yin essence to activate this divine ability and secret technique, her expression momentarily became distracted.
“Every sip and peck, perhaps predestined, all have their reasons…”
Looking at Lu Changsheng before her, she thought of how she had obtained the Heavenly Phoenix Feather from him years ago, and now he had risked his life in battle… Having made her decision, she didn’t dwell on it further.
Her jade feet, encased in beautiful cyan boots, curled slightly backward as she straddled the motionless Lu Changsheng, rising and falling.
Her high, erect chest swayed with her graceful waist, tracing beautiful arcs, displaying an astonishing beauty.
But her eyes, bright as stars, showed no trace of desire, nor joy, disgust, or rejection.
Only a layer of haziness gradually appeared… Time passed bit by bit, and Qingluan Zhenren’s graceful and charming body gradually ignited with brilliant crimson flames.
The scars and wounds on her body gradually disappeared, leaving her snow-white and flawless, like a supreme work of art crafted by heaven.
Lu Changsheng beneath her, though showing no signs of waking, had his originally pale, bloodless face now tinged with a hint of red under the crimson flames, his breathing gradually normalizing, no longer seeming on the brink of death.
This indicated that Lu Changsheng’s injuries were rapidly healing.
Awakening was just a matter of time… At this moment, Lu Changsheng, with his spirit consciousness clear, felt somewhat awkward.
Qingluan Zhenren’s secret technique was too effective.
Originally, relying on himself, it would have taken at least half a year, or even more than a year, to complete the reshaping of his meridians, bones, and dantian, thus achieving nirvana transformation and rebirth.
But under Qingluan Zhenren’s Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Technique and Yin essence, in just a few days, he had recovered by more than half.
At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before he could complete the reshaping, allowing the power of the Misty Dragon Nirvana Pill to fully erupt.
Thinking of how he had taken the Misty Dragon Nirvana Pill but hadn’t spoken up, causing Qingluan Zhenren to pay such a price to save him, Lu Changsheng felt very ashamed.
For a moment, he didn’t know how to face Qingluan Zhenren when he woke up.
After all, he wanted Qingluan Zhenren to become the mother of his child, but he hadn’t imagined it happening this way.
Moreover, based on her earlier words, Qingluan Zhenren’s actions to save him weren’t out of love born from heroic rescue, but purely to repay a debt of gratitude… Stick out one’s head or draw it back, both choices were difficult. Lu Changsheng couldn’t think of a good solution, so he stopped pondering and quietly enjoyed the current bliss.
Although Lu Ancestor was already a veteran in such matters,
Qingluan Zhenren’s lofty status, temperament, and her perfect Nascent Soul jade body gave Lu Changsheng an incomparable sense of wonder and excitement.
It made him feel as if he had returned to his early years when he first arrived at the Lu family, sharing the bridal chamber with his wife Lu Lanshu and the two sisters Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan on their wedding night… He couldn’t help but want to rise immediately and take charge…
Inside the cave, all was quiet.
Only the crisp sound like bamboo joints breaking echoed continuously.
Qingluan Zhenren seemed tireless, her body rising and falling.
Who knows how long it had been when her snow-white, exquisite, tall, and lithe body suddenly trembled.
Her jade feet, encased in noble cyan boots, tensed, the crimson flames covering her body dimming slightly. Only then did she pause to catch her breath, stopping her movements.
At this moment, her eyes, tinged with a hint of haziness, looked down at the motionless Lu Changsheng beneath her.
In fact, she had long sensed that something was off with Lu Changsheng’s condition.
His injuries were healing too quickly.
His body seemed to have an endless source of vitality energy flowing out, healing his bodily injuries.
Moreover, this vitality energy made her Heavenly Phoenix Yin essence twice as effective with half the effort.
However, among cultivators, it was taboo to deeply probe another’s condition without consent.
With the Sun-Moon Yin-Yang Mirror watching her constantly, she didn’t dare to pry into Lu Changsheng’s bodily secrets.
“Roar!”
As Qingluan Zhenren’s Heavenly Phoenix Yin essence and Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana power flowed into Lu Changsheng’s body and through his limbs and organs, the Misty Dragon Nirvana power deep within his body finally erupted completely.
This medicinal power erupted like a volcanic explosion, surging forth mightily, then, under Qingluan Zhenren’s astonished gaze, transformed into a majestic ancient dragon with impressive horns.
“Yiii!”
The Heavenly Phoenix bloodline in Qingluan Zhenren’s body inexplicably stirred.
Meanwhile, the not yet fully absorbed Heavenly Phoenix Yin essence in Lu Changsheng’s body seemed to be stimulated at this moment, suddenly erupting and condensing into a beautiful phoenix bathed in flames!
“Roar!!! Yiii!!!”
Dragon and phoenix cried out together.
The Misty Dragon Nirvana power and the Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana power intertwined at this moment, transforming into a mysterious and vast nirvana power.
“Hmm? What’s happening?”
Lu Changsheng was startled by this situation in his body, not knowing what was going on.
But he roughly guessed that the Misty Dragon Nirvana power and Qingluan Zhenren’s Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Technique and Yin essence had produced some kind of wondrous reaction.
Lu Changsheng knew it was time for him to naturally wake up.
He opened his eyes, looking at the stunningly beautiful Qingluan Zhenren before him, her features sharp and well-defined, cold and domineering yet with a face soft and brimming with charm, and said with a surprised, amazed, and disbelieving expression: “Fellow Daoist Qingluan, you… you’re…”
