For a moment, their eyes met, and Ding Ruozhao felt a slight dizziness, sensing the man's presence.
Zhang Ling glanced at Ding Ruozhao beneath him, catching her faint, delicate fragrance, which stirred his heart even more.
With such a beauty in his arms, who could maintain a normal state of mind?
He lowered his head and kissed her fragrant lips. The soft sensation was intoxicating.
Ding Ruozhao seemed to lose her strength instantly. Although she wanted to push Zhang Ling away, her momentary weakness made her struggles weaker.
"Miss Ding, don't forget to transfer your spiritual power."
Just then, Zhang Ling's gentle voice sounded in her ear. Ding Ruozhao regained some clarity, remembering that she was here to transfer spiritual power. Zhang Ling kissed her again.
After a few breaths, he sensed a gentle stream of spiritual power flowing from her mouth into his body.
This spiritual power was very mild. Upon entering his body, it instantly transformed into a pure mass of spiritual energy, coursing through his meridians before finally gathering in his dantian.
Zhang Ling immediately felt this spiritual power filling his entire dantian.
Although the affair between a man and woman was wonderful, he wouldn't forget that the main purpose this time was to transfer this spiritual power to help him quickly break through to the late stage of cultivation.
Therefore, Zhang Ling quickly got up, took a few deep breaths, calmed his feverish thoughts, crossed his legs, formed a hand seal, and began to circulate his cultivation technique to refine this mass of spiritual energy.
Meanwhile, Ding Ruozhao hurriedly tried to get up, but felt her body was somewhat empty and her mind was blank. She collapsed weakly on the bed, falling into a coma.
Thus, this somewhat strange scene lasted for a full hour before Zhang Ling finally exhaled a long breath.
First, he examined the situation inside his dantian. At this moment, a faint pink glow appeared on the outside of his original earth-yellow golden core.
Although the spiritual light was very faint, it gathered profound and pure spiritual power. The pink spiritual light was the Jade Phoenix Spiritual Energy Ding Ruozhao had mentioned.
Now, under deep sensing, it was no different from taking some kind of spiritual elixir. The speed of cultivation had actually increased by two or three times out of thin air. Cultivating in this state with the aid of elixirs, the speed of cultivation progress would definitely be rapid.
Of course, this layer of pink spiritual light was also constantly being consumed. Zhang Ling estimated that it would take him about seven or eight years of hard cultivation to completely absorb it.
As for whether he could break through to the late stage realm by then, he couldn't guarantee it. But with this mass of spiritual power, it would save him thirty to forty years of hard cultivation.
For a time, some evil thoughts arose in his heart. If he could find female cultivators with this special spiritual energy again and cultivate through dual cultivation methods, his cultivation progress would be rapid.
In the world of cultivation, dual cultivation is also a very common method of cultivation, and even unilateral methods of extracting essence are listed as evil cultivation practices.
However, this idea was just a thought, and Zhang Ling woke up.
Not to mention that this special spiritual body that can assist male cultivators in cultivation is rare, even if you can find such a female cultivator, that female cultivator must have a certain amount of strength, otherwise she will not be able to meet the requirements.
He shook his head, abandoned these complicated thoughts, meditated for another quarter of an hour, calmed his mind, and then opened his eyes.
Then he found Ding Ruozhao lying next to him as if she was in a coma.
Scanning with his divine sense, Zhang Ling was immediately shocked.
The aura on this woman's body was fluctuating. Her original late-stage Golden Core strength had actually decreased a lot, and there was a phenomenon of cultivation regression. If it was not handled well, it was very likely that her cultivation would directly fall to the mid-stage Golden Core.
He quickly checked his condition carefully, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Apart from the fluctuation of spiritual power, there were no other abnormalities on Ding Ruozhao's body.
At the same time, he also thought of what caused this. It was very likely that this woman had transferred the Jade Phoenix Spiritual Energy to him, consuming her origin energy.
Zhang Ling couldn't help but sigh at this woman's condition.
After thinking about it, he patted the storage bag and quickly took out a white porcelain bottle, poured out a few milky white pills and fed them to Ding Ruozhao.
Then he let this woman sit cross-legged, run her spiritual power, and sort out the restless spiritual power in her body.
This scene lasted for several hours before Zhang Ling breathed a long sigh of relief and ended the process of sorting out Ding Ruozhao's spiritual power.
Sorting out spiritual power for others is not an easy task, and it is very energy-consuming.
If the spiritual powers cultivated by the two are in conflict, both parties may be damaged. Fortunately, the earth attribute spiritual power in the five elements is very neutral, and there was no conflict.
Looking at the sleeping Ding Ruozhao, Zhang Ling touched her cheek, stroked her somewhat messy hair, and looked at her quietly.
Looking at Ding Ruozhao's somewhat pale and bloodless face, he suddenly felt a sense of guilt.
This woman's current situation is not good. The spiritual power in her body is roughly stable, but her cultivation has indeed regressed a lot. Although she still maintains the late-stage Golden Core cultivation, she is more like a monk who has just broken through to the late-stage realm, not as profound as before.
On the other hand, he, who had received the transferred Jade Phoenix Spiritual Energy, could be said to have experienced a surge in cultivation.
To be honest, Zhang Ling still felt a trace of secret joy in his heart, which made him feel very hypocritical. It was hard to say who had the advantage in this matter.
Although they both got what they needed, the Ding family snatched back the Thunderfire Beast and killed Liu Yuan, and he got the Jade Phoenix Spiritual Energy, which would double his cultivation speed in the next few decades.
However, his relationship with this woman still gave him some strange feelings.
Zhang Ling stared at Ding Ruozhao in a daze, but did not notice Ding Ruozhao opening her eyes.
As soon as this woman opened her eyes, she saw his gaze and couldn't help but want to get up, but as soon as she got up, some fine sweat broke out on her forehead. Ding Ruozhao only felt dizzy and sat back on the bed.
"How are you?" Zhang Ling naturally came back to his senses and asked.
Ding Ruozhao just rubbed her forehead and did not answer. This situation had been anticipated in advance.
Having the Jade Phoenix Spiritual Body did not do her any good. Since she had this spiritual body, only the old family head and her younger sister knew about it, besides her deceased parents.
Her father was a direct descendant of the Ding family, but his spiritual root aptitude was very poor. He was just a four-spiritual root cultivator and had not even broken through to the Foundation Establishment realm, and his mother was just a mortal.
If the old family head hadn't tested her for the Thunder Spiritual Root aptitude and received the family's full support, she would not have been able to enter the Golden Core realm so quickly.
If other monks knew about the Jade Phoenix Spiritual Body, the outcome would definitely not be much better. It was very likely that she would be kidnapped by evil cultivators and used as a cauldron.
Therefore, only a few people knew about this matter. Now, the only person who knew about this matter was the man in front of her. Not only did she have a relationship with him, but she also passed the Jade Phoenix Spiritual Energy to this person.
For a time, Ding Ruozhao's psychology was quite complicated, but she did not regret it in her heart. After a moment of silence, Ding Ruozhao recovered a little, tidied up her clothes and stood up.
