I Can Devour Spirits

The corner of the abandoned temple, where the straw was piled, had quieted down...

After a bout of Wushan passion, both of them were drenched in sweat...

A straw was stuck at the corner of Duan Rong’s lips, and dense threads of blood floated and squirmed around him...

These blood threads had already withdrawn from Lv Qingzhu and were floating around him alone...

The nourishing effect of the interplay between Primordial Yin and Primordial Yang caused these threads of blood to become as engorged as leeches drunk with fresh blood, crimson and writhing around Duan Rong...

At that moment, Duan Rong suddenly awoke.

The strands of blood that floated and squirmed around him had absorbed all the nourishing effects of the interplay between Primordial Yin and Primordial Yang.

Duan Rong thereby directly achieved the Second Layer of Filthy Blood Divine Skill.

This was not just the Second Layer of the Realm, but the authentic Second Layer of Power.

While the two were in their Wushan passion, the Filthy Blood Divine Skill had automatically operated, absorbing the nourishing effects of the interplay between Primordial Yin and Primordial Yang, completing the ”Blood Refining” of Duan Rong’s entire body.

After this Blood Refining completed, Duan Rong’s lifespan increased by fifteen years.

During the completion of the Blood Refining by the Filthy Blood Divine Skill, the residual Aphrodisiac in Duan Rong’s body was also refined away along with the impurities expelled by the Blood Refining.

Thus, with the completion of Blood Refining, the medicinal potency within Duan Rong disappeared, and he suddenly awoke.

In the instant of waking, Duan Rong moved his thoughts and let out his Divine Sense.

After a round of probing, he let out a sigh of relief, glad that the surroundings were uninhabited.

Duan Rong then looked at the blood threads floating and squirming in front of him, and he could faintly feel a slight joy emanating from them, having been sated.

Guided by Duan Rong’s thought, the blood threads floating around him retracted into his body through his pores.

Just as he felt, he realized that his Filthy Blood Divine Skill had achieved the Second Layer.

Duan Rong felt somewhat vexed; he hadn’t expected that the hidden danger lurking in his Consciousness Sea would not only be unresolved but had seized the chance to grow.

After dispersing the blood threads around him, Duan Rong finally turned to look at Lv Qingzhu beside him.

Lv Qingzhu was covered in a fine layer of sweat, the blush on her face had faded, and her fair skin was dotted with a few pieces of straw...

Duan Rong reached out carefully, pinched, and discarded those pieces of straw.

Gazing intently at Lv Qingzhu’s face, a tender look filled Duan Rong’s eyes.

For someone who’d lived two incarnations without intimacy, she was his first woman.

”Qingzhu...” Duan Rong murmured her name as a strange feeling welled up within him; he couldn’t help but lower his head and lightly kiss her forehead.

Just then, a mountain breeze blew, causing the sweat-drenched Lv Qingzhu to shiver. Duan Rong’s expression shifted, and he immediately picked up his clothes from the ground, gently covering Lv Qingzhu’s body...

He sat beside Lv Qingzhu, lightly brushing his fingers over her lips, his heart filling with a tender affection...

With her eyes tightly closed, perhaps sensing Duan Rong’s gentle touch, Lv Qingzhu’s arm snaked towards him once more.

Duan Rong quickly dodged; the Aphrodisiac’s remnants had been refined away from him by the Blood Refining of the Filthy Blood Divine Skill, but not for Lv Qingzhu; the potent Aphrodisiac’s effects still stimulated her...

However, in this desolate, crisis-ridden broken temple, it truly wasn’t the time...

Duan Rong got up and picked up the porcelain bottle that he had previously dropped nearby.

He sat back beside Lv Qingzhu, took out a pill, and gently fed it into her mouth.

But Lv Qingzhu, still unconscious, merely held the medicine in her mouth without swallowing it.

Watching Lv Qingzhu, Duan Rong hesitated, then leaned down to kiss her lips, slowly extending his tongue...

Feeling that Lv Qingzhu had swallowed the pill, Duan Rong finally released her.

He wiped the saliva from Lv Qingzhu’s lips and stared at her in a daze.

Lv Qingzhu lay on her side like a sleeping child, with soft light shining on her face from a collapsed corner of the temple...

Duan Rong gazed at her, his eyes clear as water, wishing time would remain frozen in this moment...

But just then, Lv Qingzhu’s eyelashes fluttered, and Duan Rong’s heart skipped a beat, knowing she was about to awaken.

At this moment, he felt a surge of frustration; how could Shen Ping’s medicine be so potent? Lv Qingzhu was waking just moments after taking it?

Instantly, Duan Rong feigned unconsciousness, curling up his legs as he lay not far from Lv Qingzhu.

Lv Qingzhu slowly awakened, her clear eyes filled with initial confusion, and suddenly she jumped up, Duan Rong’s clothes lying on her slipped off...

She immediately remembered what had happened, although drugged, the intense sensations were imprinted in her mind, and she could even still smell Duan Rong on her...

Tears instantly welled up in Lv Qingzhu’s eyes.

She quickly dressed, picked up the sword from the ground, and walked over to Duan Rong.

Duan Rong lay naked on the straw pile, legs curled in, and Lv Qingzhu’s gaze flickered as she noticed the porcelain bottle by his hand.

Lv Qingzhu could sense something was gently nourishing her Dantian, easing the dull pain from her depleted True Qi with a touch of coolness.

Lv Qingzhu touched her own lips; in her hazy memory, it seemed Duan Rong had given her something.

Though she didn’t know what it was, it was undoubtedly beneficial to her body.

Lv Qingzhu coldly said, ”Get up! Stop pretending!”
