The Supreme Dantai Xuan, who had stayed silent until now, finally couldn't hold back after hearing their exchange. She stared coldly at Ye Chen. "Ye Chen, you're merely someone from a minor small world. You have no idea how terrifying the Supreme truly is… Even in the foreign domains, the Supreme stands at the absolute pinnacle. It has already transcended to another realm entirely.

"The Heavenly Emperor you all revere so much? Nothing more than an ant before the Supreme. So I advise you—don't meddle in things that don't concern you. The moment she began cultivating the Supreme Emotionless Scripture, she was already marked by the Supreme. Her future belongs to it. That is her destiny, her inevitable end.

"No one can change it. Even if you help her seize temporary control, it will ultimately be futile. You might even draw the Supreme's attention onto yourself. You will eventually ascend to the Immortal Realm. And the Immortal Realm will one day merge with the foreign domains, becoming part of them.

"With your talent, you have the potential to become an Immortal King in the future—even carve out a place for yourself in the foreign domains. Why ruin your own prospects?"

Ye Chen listened to her long speech and immediately understood. Everything Dantai Xuan's true self had said was probably true. This Supreme Dantai Xuan was afraid. As for the vast information in her words—foreign domains merging with the Immortal Realm and all that—Ye Chen only half-listened. He didn't particularly care.

The Supreme had transcended something beyond Immortal King? So what? If he backed down at the first sign of a threat, he might as well give up on immortality altogether and spend his life hiding in the cultivation world. Even so, a trace of hesitation lingered on Ye Chen's face…

Dantai Xuan's true self thought he was worried about the Supreme itself. She quickly spoke up. "The Supreme is cold and emotionless. How could something this small possibly affect it? Junior Brother, I don't think that's likely at all."

Ye Chen shook his head. "That's not what I'm worried about. It's mainly her attitude—she's clearly resisting… To be honest, in all my life, I, Ye Chen, have never forced a female cultivator. I can't get past that barrier in my heart."

Dantai Xuan's true self was stunned. She hadn't expected him to be hung up on this. She thought of the rumors: Ye Chen killing the Heavenly Intention Holy Son and seizing his fiancée. Saying in front of the Divine Silkworm Clan Leader that he would take his wife. Using a female cultivator's brother's life to coerce her into submitting. Forcing the Heavenly Desire Divine Maiden's Master and Grandmaster to serve him together…

Dantai Xuan's true self felt that her junior brother was clearly lying. But men were like that. She immediately comforted him. "This body is mine. Her divine soul was born from me. In essence, everything belongs to me. I am the true master. As long as I consent, why should her attitude matter?"

Ye Chen finally nodded after hearing that. "It still feels a bit off… But desperate times call for desperate measures! Senior Sister, forgive any offense I cause next!"

Dantai Xuan nodded at once. The thought of what Ye Chen was about to do—even she couldn't help but feel a wave of shyness. After all, she would be able to sense everything.

Yet beneath the shyness, deep in her eyes, a faint trace of anticipation flickered. But just as she thought Ye Chen was about to act, He suddenly remembered something and turned back to ask, "Senior Sister, does she have any sealing techniques?"

Breaking through from half-Saint to Saint required severing the dao. From Saint to Saint King required forming the Heavenly Heart Imprint, which needed a sealing method. Since the Supreme Dantai Xuan could automatically awaken the severing dao technique, perhaps she also had sealing methods.

Dantai Xuan nodded. "She does… The Supreme Emotionless Scripture is insidious. It only provides the scripture itself. The matching severing dao technique and sealing methods can only be automatically awakened by the Supreme split soul. If we can obtain the sealing method along the way, that would be ideal. But time is pressing. Right now, getting the severing dao technique and breaking through to Saint to suppress her is the priority! The rest can wait."

Ye Chen's eyes lit up at once. "Senior Sister, why don't you first transmit that mind-probing technique to me… That way, we can attack the Supreme split soul from both sides at once… You focus on extracting the Supreme Severing Dao Technique from the front. I'll handle the Supreme Sealing Method from behind. Once I get it, I'll gift it to you!"

Dantai Xuan's eyes brightened instantly. She looked at Ye Chen with surprise. Her junior brother really was wholeheartedly concerned for her. Yet judging from their past interactions, there had barely been any real senior-junior bond between them.

So… he must be after her body. He was her junior brother—logically, it shouldn't be allowed. But if it was him… maybe it wasn't entirely impossible…

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Her mind grew a little chaotic at the thought. After a few soft hums, she snapped back to reality. Without hesitation, she transmitted the secret art directly to Ye Chen. "In that case—thank you, Junior Brother."

With Ye Chen's current comprehension, a single glance was enough to master it completely. His motivation surged even higher as he turned toward the bound Supreme Dantai Xuan. If he could obtain the sealing method and gift it to his senior sister… She would trigger a critical strike—likely at a multiplier comparable to Qingcheng's. He might get quite the pleasant surprise.

Filled with battle intent, Ye Chen activated the soul communion technique and surged toward the bound Supreme Dantai Xuan.

The Supreme Dantai Xuan's eyes turned icy and resolute. She raised her defenses to the absolute maximum. Though she was indifferent to such matters, what the true self said was true.

The Divine Maiden Furnace did affect her. If Soul Communion occurred now, her thoughts would fluctuate wildly. And if the true self's plan succeeded, she would lose the initiative, be suppressed by the true self, and never again freely control the body.

But just as her guard reached its peak—Another wave from the Divine Maiden Furnace crashed over her… The Supreme Dantai Xuan instantly lost her composure. Her gaze turned hazy, her entire body slackening.

Ye Chen naturally wouldn't miss such a perfect opening. He drove the soul communion technique forward with full force…

In an instant, a soft hum escaped the Supreme Dantai Xuan's lips.

…

Immediately afterward, the entire sea of consciousness rang with the same long, relieved sigh from both the true self and the Supreme at precisely the same moment. It was as though a dam, swollen to bursting, had finally opened its gates.

The release was overwhelming, utterly cathartic. Even the Supreme's cold, unwilling heart couldn't override the raw honesty of her soul body—three full years of being tormented by the laws of human desire inside the Divine Maiden Furnace.

This was Ye Chen's first time encountering such a model. Fascinating, really. But he didn't forget the task at hand. He circulated the secret art, seizing the moment when her defenses had crumbled into chaos, and began extracting fragments of thought related to the Supreme Sealing Method.

While he worked, he casually glanced sideways at his senior sister's true self. The sight froze him in place. Dantai Xuan's true self had already collapsed to the ground. Her eyes were completely dazed… She looked utterly lost in bliss, floating somewhere far away, savoring every sensation.

This… Couldn't they at least finish the job seriously first?

Ye Chen felt a touch of helplessness, but now wasn't the time to disturb her. So he focused on his own work.

A long while later.

Dantai Xuan's true self finally rose to her feet. Still somewhat dazed, she looked up at Ye Chen and the Supreme above her and remembered there was actual business to attend to. She began properly circulating the secret art, collecting fragments of the Supreme Severing Dao Technique.

Yet her progress was halting and uneven. Every so often, she had to pause, drifting off into another trance. Efficiency was abysmal. As she gazed up at the Supreme Dantai Xuan, envy actually flickered in her eyes. It almost seemed as though she wished she were the one having her thoughts collected right now.

She fidgeted restlessly, tempted, yet too embarrassed to act on it. So she stayed where she was, half-heartedly continuing her work. She couldn't help but marvel inwardly at how monstrous her junior brother's comprehension truly was. Even techniques from the Heavenly Desire Sect—he had mastered them to perfection with such effortless grace, reaching the absolute pinnacle without the slightest strain. It was truly breathtaking.

And so it went. After two full days of Dantai Xuan's true self slacking off, Ye Chen, still diligently working, sent a voice transmission. "Senior Sister, how's your side coming along? I've already collected the complete Supreme Severing Dao Technique. I'm ready here. If you're prepared as well, I can wrap things up!"

Dantai Xuan's true self's eyes widened in shock. He was already done? She had barely started—eighty characters of the Supreme Severing Dao Technique hadn't even been collected yet! Junior Brother… was he really this fast?

Still, she understood priorities. She couldn't keep him tied up forever. So in that instant, she came up with a perfect solution that benefited everyone.

Without further hesitation, Dantai Xuan flew upward. Then she spoke. "Junior Brother, I think my progress is slow because I'm too far away… I can't waste too much of your time either. So I'll come closer. That way, we can accelerate the thought collection and save time overall."

Ye Chen blinked in surprise… He was just about to offer—maybe he could collect the Supreme Severing Dao Technique himself too—But before he could speak, Dantai Xuan's true self had already joined in.

This…

Ye Chen was momentarily stunned. His technique nearly faltered. Dantai Xuan's true self immediately looked crestfallen and hurried to explain. "Junior Brother—don't stop your art… I came here to collect the Supreme Severing Dao Technique, so please don't hold back on my account. We're cultivators—matters like this are trivial. Suppressing her is what truly matters. So just continue exactly as you were before. Don't worry about your senior sister…"

Hearing her explanation, suspicion flickered in Ye Chen's eyes.

You're really here for the Supreme Severing Dao Technique? Not just… to freeload?

There seemed to be something slightly off with this senior sister. He wasn't sure whether this was her true nature or the influence of the Divine Maiden Furnace. But since she had said it herself, Ye Chen couldn't argue further.

Besides, one more person didn't add any real burden for him. So be it…

Yet soon enough, Ye Chen discovered helplessly that his senior sister had completely given up. She wasn't even circulating the thought-collection secret art anymore. Perhaps the combination of her own sensations and those transmitted from the Supreme side created an overload far beyond what she could handle. And on the Supreme's end, the reaction was indeed even stronger. Clearly, the same issue.

Ye Chen sighed inwardly—truly a life of endless toil. He patted his senior sister gently, reminding her to pay attention and not let the secret art stop…

Dantai Xuan's true self nodded quickly. Then, in fits and starts, she resumed collecting—slowly piecing together the Supreme Severing Dao Technique!
