Charming Maiden Spirit Marrow Body.
This is a top-tier physique exclusive to female cultivators.
Those who possess this physique not only progress rapidly in their cultivation, but their bodies also constantly produce essence energy.
While this essence energy may not benefit the female cultivator herself, it can greatly enhance the cultivation of her partner.
It is an excellent physique for dual cultivation!
As for the Mysterious Luminous Scripture, although it may sound like a legitimate Buddhist practice, it is, in fact, a first-rate dual cultivation technique.
As one advances in the practice, their body emits radiance. For partners, it has countless benefits and can even enhance their comprehension.
When combined, these two can be considered an invincible combination in the realm of dual cultivation.
"Dual cultivation set? Oh boy..."
Li Ran looked helpless.
The items were good, the problem was who to give them to?
...
If the Hidden Gauze Sect were a dual cultivation sect, then Li Ran would undoubtedly be the most diligent cultivator in the entire sect.
But the reality was quite the opposite.
Hidden Gauze Sect's cultivation method emphasized purity of heart, simplicity, and naturalness. Dual cultivation here was considered unorthodox.
Moreover, he had just confessed to Leng Wuyan yesterday.
If she were to find out he was secretly dual cultivating with other women, he would definitely face a dire situation!
"However, what if I were to dual cultivate with the Sect Master?"
Recalling Leng Wuyan's exquisite face and her extremely mature figure beneath the white robe, Li Ran couldn't help but feel a bit dry in the mouth.
Although this idea wasn't very realistic, if a person doesn't have dreams, how are they any different from a salted fish?
"The higher a person's cultivation level, the more terrifying their physical quality. As the Sect Master is an Emperor-level powerhouse, even blades and swords would find it hard to injure her... I wonder if she'll turn into 'tempered steel skin'?" Li Ran mumbled softly.
"What's tempered steel skin?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
Li Ran's expression instantly froze.
He slowly turned around, seeing the stunning woman standing there. His throat tightened.
"Master."
"Yes."
Leng Wuyan replied, her curiosity piqued, "You haven't answered my question yet. What is 'tempered steel skin'?"
"..."
Cold sweat trickled down Li Ran's back.
"This... is a type of demon, it's called 'Tempered Steel Demon' because its body is as tough as steel," Li Ran quickly fabricated.
"I had never heard of it before. It's probably some inconspicuous little demon," Leng Wuyan pondered.
"Exactly, it's quite unremarkable. Master need not worry about it," Li Ran nodded in agreement.
"Mhm."
Leng Wuyan didn't press further.
Today, she was still dressed in pure white, wearing a delicate garment under her white robe that revealed her swan-like neck and fair, exquisite collarbones.
In addition, her dress was shorter than usual, showcasing her slender, rounded calves, resembling finely crafted jade.
She exuded a touch of youthful charm.
"Master, you look really beautiful today," Li Ran changed the subject.
"I was just wearing whatever, I don't care if it makes me be beautiful or not," Leng Wuyan's tone was casual, but a trace of excitement flickered in her eyes.
She had spent half an hour meticulously dressing up. Although she didn't say it aloud, she secretly hoped Li Ran would notice.
"By the way, I noticed that you seem to have a good relationship with that female disciple, Lu Xinran, right?" Leng Wuyan casually inquired.
Li Ran shook his head, "Our relationship is average, and I just learned her name recently."
"If that's the case, why did you go to great lengths to help her break through?" Leng Wuyan's gaze was piercing.
Li Ran's heart skipped a beat.
It seems the Sect Master cares quite a bit about this matter!
"After all, we are fellow disciples. She was right on the verge of breaking through into the foundation establishment stage, and I just gave her a hand," Li Ran provided the official response.
But Leng Wuyan clearly wasn't satisfied with this answer.
"I remembers that you used to disdain associating with other disciples. When did you become so willing to help others?"
Li Ran used to be very indifferent in character, let alone guiding fellow disciples in their cultivation. If he didn't mock them, that was already good enough.
Today was indeed a bit strange.
"Uh..."
Li Ran scratched his head, "If it were before, I wouldn't have bothered with their lives, but now things are different."
"Oh?" Leng Wuyan asked curiously, "How are they different?"
"Now that I have a new identity, the air feels fresher, and life is more interesting," Li Ran smiled and continued, "Because of you, Master, I want to become a warmer person."
Leng Wuyan's heart began to race wildly.
What's wrong with this person?
Why would he say something so embarrassing just like that!
"Lower your voice, what if someone overhears..." Leng Wuyan shyly whispered.
In reality, with her cultivation level, how could anyone eavesdrop on her?
She was just caught up in the panic of the moment.
"I spoke thoughtlessly."
"However, why does Master care so much about Lu Xinran?"
Before she could answer, Li Ran suddenly realized, "Could it be that you're jealous?"
Leng Wuyan: ∑(⊙▽⊙a
Her cheeks instantly flushed a rosy hue, like a burning cloud on the horizon.
"Who, who's jealous? Don't speak nonsense. I holds such a prestigious position, how could I compete or be jealous over a disciple!" Leng Wuyan hurriedly defended herself.
"Then why is your face so red?" Li Ran tilted his head and asked.
Leng Wuyan flustered, "That's because the weather is too hot!"
Whoosh~
A cold wind carried snowflakes, scattering between the two.
Li Ran nodded seriously, "Master is right, it's indeed very hot."
...
Leng Wuyan's face grew even redder, wishing she could find a hole to hide in.
Both embarrassed and annoyed, she glared at Li Ran, "Come, let's have a sparring session!"
"Huh?!"
