Pain, a deep pain that penetrated into the soul.

Bones, flesh, as if everything was peeled away, yet Li Xiaoyao could clearly perceive all of this.

Under such intense pain, every second seemed to drag on extremely slowly.

Not knowing how much time had passed, just when Li Xiaoyao felt he could no longer hold on, the intense pain finally began to slowly fade away.

This was a perfect body, and within it, liquid-like spiritual power was furiously converging towards the Dantian.

Li Xiaoyao had not deliberately operated his cultivation technique, but the spiritual power moved autonomously, swirling madly, as if forming two spiritual power tornadoes within the Dantian.

He didn't know what had happened to his body, he had never experienced this before.

But from the current perception, it didn't seem to be a bad thing.

The speed of the spiritual power tornadoes became slower and slower, and eventually stopped, a dazzling golden light twinkling from the center of the tornadoes.

Just as Li Xiaoyao wanted to see clearly what that speck of golden light was, an immense aura, vast as the sea, released from the point of golden light.

In the next second, a terrifying attraction force burst out from the golden light, the entire Dantian became like a giant whale, crazily devouring the spiritual power within the body.

After about half an hour of such devouring, the speed gradually slowed down, and the two tornadoes in the Dantian disappeared. In their place were two golden spherical beads.

"What are these?" Li Xiaoyao widened his eyes, looking at the two golden beads floating quietly in the Dantian, feeling bewildered.

Sitting nearby keeping watch, Xiaoqing looked at the recovering Li Xiaoyao and the terrifying attraction force emanating from him, and couldn't help but feel amazed.

"Broken through?"

Streams of spiritual energy frantically poured into Li Xiaoyao's body, and when the amount of this spiritual energy reached a staggering level, it exploded with a bang, breaking through in one fell swoop.

After the breakthrough and the return to calm, Xiaoqing sensed for a while and surprisingly looked at the still sleeping Li Xiaoyao: "Golden Core Realm second stage? The little guy has turned misfortune into a blessing this time."

"Hmm? What's going on here?" Xiaoqing's gaze was suddenly drawn to an anomaly on Li Xiaoyao's body, even she was slightly stupefied for a moment with her experience.

A golden halo was on Li Xiaoyao's chest.

"This seems..." Xiaoqing's eyebrows lightly furrowed, she tilted her head to the side, thought for a while, as if she had thought of something, then understood and said, "A seal!"

Xiaoqing walked over, extending a segment of her arm as translucent as white jade, her soft hand gently touching Li Xiaoyao's chest, then withdrew it after feeling around.

Looking at Li Xiaoyao again, surprise flickered in Xiaoqing's beautiful eyes.

"Who sealed this? Clearly possessing a more powerful talent and constitution, why seal it?"

"Strange indeed." Xiaoqing shook her head, expressing her puzzlement. If it weren't for today's serendipitous event, she wouldn't have known that Li Xiaoyao had been sealed, and from the looks of the sealing formation, it must have been done right after he was born.

What astonished Xiaoqing the most was Li Xiaoyao's constitution.

How could such an incredible talent be a person from the Mortal Realm?

Just then, Li Xiaoyao suddenly opened his eyes wide, and sat up with a jerk, looking around. His gaze instantly fell on Xiaoqing.

"Why are you here?"

"Where is this?"

"What happened?"

Li Xiaoyao asked a series of questions.

Xiaoqing's smile was bewitching but not vulgar, soul-stirring, and even with Li Xiaoyao's steadfast will, he was slightly spellbound at this moment.

"Do I look pretty?"

Li Xiaoyao nodded subconsciously, "Pretty."

Xiaoqing's beautiful eyes flashed a trace of cold light, "Have you seen enough then?"

"Enough, enough," Xiaoqing's murderous aura almost materialized, sending a chill through Li Xiaoyao's body, making him shiver and quickly grin as he spoke.

"Who are your parents?" Xiaoqing changed the subject suddenly, and asked.

"What?" Li Xiaoyao looked confused, why was she asking about this all of a sudden?

"Are you asking to marry into my family?"

Xiaoqing's eyebrows suddenly twitched, she raised her voice and yelled, "Do you believe I would kill you?"

"Ahem." Knowing he had said something wrong, Li Xiaoyao quickly replied, "I've been an orphan since I was young."

"An orphan?" Xiaoqing felt it strange, pondered for a few seconds, then suddenly stood up and reached out to touch Li Xiaoyao's chest.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Li Xiaoyao stepped back several paces.

"Your body has been sealed."

Li Xiaoyao paused for a few seconds, then asked, "Sealed?"

"Mhm."

"Your talent is far beyond just this. I've seen many great demons, and geniuses of the Cultivation World. If you could remove the seal, you might not be inferior to them," Xiaoqing gave an exceedingly high evaluation.

"Unfortunately, with my current cultivation level, I cannot unseal it."

Li Xiaoyao fell silent upon hearing this, his own body actually contained a sealing formation. But who exactly did this? And why would they do such a thing?

"I've seen many like you," observing Li Xiaoyao covering his crotch with his hands, Xiaoqing said with a disdainful smile.

"Ahem." Being looked down upon by a woman for the first time, Li Xiaoyao felt a rare embarrassment.

After getting dressed, Li Xiaoyao couldn't help but ask, "How can this seal be broken?"

"If one day you can reach the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, perhaps you can use the power of Heavenly Thunder to break the seal. Or, once my cultivation is restored, I will be able to remove it for you."

Li Xiaoyao seized the chance to ask, "What was your cultivation level at your peak?"

Xiaoqing glanced at him, a charming smile on her face as she answered a question with a question, "I've received the Soul Fusion Pill."

"You took it?" Li Xiaoyao was startled, feeling something was off, then suddenly realized and asked, "If you ate the Soul Fusion Pill, shouldn't your cultivation have been restored? Why can't you remove the seal inside me?"

"My soul was separated for over a thousand years. Although merged now, that soul has developed its own consciousness," Xiaoqing sighed lightly, a trace of sorrow in her eyes, "As time passes, my cultivation will gradually return to its peak, but for the souls to completely merge..."

"Oh." Although Xiaoqing didn't go into detail, Li Xiaoyao had somewhat guessed.

The previous Xiaoqing, the adorable one, had already become an independent entity with her own thoughts. Now that their souls were merged, the thoughts of that Xiaoqing probably influenced her from time to time.

It's like there are two little people living in one's body. Only, the one in control is still Xiaoqing.

"The reason I've come to you is for this matter," Xiaoqing said as she looked up at him, her eyes filled with a mixed smile that made Li Xiaoyao's heart uneasy.

"What use is finding you? The Soul Fusion Pill didn't work, what more do you want?"

"I need a Spirit Condensation Jade, find me a Spirit Condensation Jade, and we'll owe each other nothing."
