In the Illusion Realm.
Time seemed to lose its meaning.
Wang Mu slowly opened his eyes, a glint of light fleeting from the depths of his gaze.
The Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram... I've barely reached the entry-level, Wang Mu muttered to himself.
At this moment, searing heat and bone-chilling cold coursed through him. The two types of baleful intent within his body constantly shifted in his Sea of Consciousness, eventually, slowly merging. The process, however, was somewhat unbearable for him to witness.
The fused Mixed Element Energy was but a single sliver circulating throughout his body. The faint energy made it difficult for Wang Mu to discern any significant effects from the Mixed Element Energy, as the quantity was simply too small. Closing his eyes to perceive it, he felt as if an infinite vitality and boundless possibilities coursed through him with the flow of the Mixed Element Energy.
Yin Yang Union, the genesis of Mixed Element... Wang Mu pondered.
His proficiency in the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram was not even at the First Layer; he had only learned the Cultivation Method. To cultivate it, one had to visualize uniting with someone of the opposite sex in one's mind, combining Yin and Yang Qi, to slowly achieve fusion. If it weren't for the assault of the Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits, he likely wouldn't have realized this during his Cultivation.
It's this difficult just at the entry-level. Higher realms probably have even more requirements...
Harmonization... Harmonization. Could it really be as literal as it sounds?
I remember back at the Linglong Love Base, Bi You said this was a supreme Dual Cultivation Technique...
Could it be that to advance in Cultivation, one must actually perform Dual Cultivation with a partner, rather than relying solely on the illusions brought by the Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits?
From another perspective, the Illusion Realm's effect was evidently to allow Fengyue Sect disciples to specifically cultivate this technique.
That sudden intensification of the Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits just now was a bit strange...
Wang Mu took a deep breath. It's probably because of this Illusion Realm; an occasional surge in strength is plausible. Or could it be the Fengyue Sect intentionally targeting me? If so, the illusions formed in my Sea of Consciousness from the assault of the Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits... they wouldn't be able to see those, would they?
Just thinking of this, Wang Mu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He had clearly just cultivated Mixed Element Power; logically, he should feel comfortable all over.
It's probably unlikely. Even if they could see, they would only observe me enduring the assault of the Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits. It's impossible for them to see the illusions within my Sea of Consciousness...
That, after all, was akin to an erotic dream.
The Fengyue Sect must grant people some privacy, right?
At most, they would see the various unsightly states Cultivators reveal in the Illusion Realm. If they even watched the illusions people experienced during the assault, that would be rather tyrannical.
"Forget it, let's keep moving," he decided.
Wang Mu felt he had been cultivating for a while, but definitely not for three days. As long as he could leave the Illusion Realm, that would be enough.
Without the Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits, and hindered by his Seven Emotions Sword Heart, Wang Mu felt he couldn't actually conjure any more erotic dreams with Nanrong Biyou. It seemed this thing couldn't be cultivated by relying on his own fantasies.
Wang Mu speculated that to cultivate the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram, one either had to truly engage in Dual Cultivation with a partner, or rely on these Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits to generate special illusions for "intracranial Dual Cultivation," thereby achieving the fusion of Yin and Yang. Moreover, according to Nanrong Biyou, this was a genuine Dual Cultivation Technique, so Cultivation would definitely be faster with a partner. Cultivating with the aid of the Illusion Realm was certainly slower.
His recent Cultivation session had only barely managed to fuse the Yin and Yang Qi into a single strand of Soul Origin Energy. In terms of Cultivation perception, the Great Yin-Yang Harmony Diagram was still at Level Zero. At this speed, even using his action points resulted in such slow progress; it was even more so for others. No wonder this Cultivation Technique was so difficult to cultivate.
If one could cultivate it through Dual Cultivation with a partner, then logically, this Cultivation Technique shouldn't be so difficult...
In this day and age, wasn't finding a Dual Cultivation Couple easy?
Following the path within the Illusion Realm, Wang Mu continued forward.
Suddenly, before he had taken more than a few steps, he halted.
Ahead, a figure with an enchanting smile appeared not far off. Dressed in a deep purple gown and with long, sea-blue hair, Wang Mu recognized her instantly.
Miss You...
It's fake, isn't it? Wang Mu frowned slightly.
Perhaps due to the Soul Origin Energy, he judged it to be fake almost instantly, without any conscious thought.
There are Evil Beasts in the Illusion Realm... I haven't encountered one before... Could this be an Evil Beast's transformation?
What does this mean? To proceed, I must slay it?
If I have to slay it, then I'll slay it. Wang Mu's heart stirred; he vaguely guessed something.
Just then, the smiling figure walked directly towards him, her eyes full of affection, seemingly brimming with infinite tenderness. Thinking this, he drew his Chiyun Flying Sword and, with a casual flick of his hand, slashed out.
In an instant, the figure let out a shriek, split into two, reverted to its original form, and disintegrated into countless particles. Upon closer inspection, one could see that it was indeed an oddly shaped Evil Beast.
"In the Illusion Realm, Evil Beasts are condensed from the Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits. They will transform into the image of the opposite sex that you hold in your heart and attack you," the female disciple had once explained. Only by firmly adhering to one's Taoist Heart could one slay them without hesitation.
After being slain, a crystal would appear. These crystals were composed of relatively pure Yin and Yang Qi and were of great benefit for cultivating the Great Yin Yang Joyful Map, as well as other Yin-Yang related Cultivation Techniques. They were special cultivation resources, akin to Spirit Stones.
For most Cultivators, slaying even one or two Evil Beasts was exceedingly difficult. Evil Beasts condensed from the Yin and Yang Two Evil Spirits had no physical form. One had to combine Divine Sense with their own willpower, driving Spiritual Power into Spells to battle and slowly slay them.
Wang Mu's ability to slay one so effortlessly with a single strike, without even needing Spells, was purely due to his Mixed Element Energy.
