Eternal Heavenly Emperor

Boom, Su Wanyue's mind was suddenly thrown into chaos as the Star Force inside her body nearly exploded.

However, she was after all a genius blessed by heaven, and she quickly regained her bearings. With a clear mind, she hastily directed the Star Force within her body to reach a balance with Chu Hao. Even so, they both spit out a large mouthful of blood, nearly collapsing on the spot.

Chu Hao's mood surged with emotion, his fighting spirit soaring unceasingly.

He would cherish this woman well, for she was the woman he loved!

In Su Wanyue's eyes, there was an intense sense of shyness, coupled with a bit of confusion and helplessness. If Chu Hao had not acted as he did just now, she might have already lost her will, and both of them would have been doomed.

Yet it was still her first kiss, and losing it in such a way did bother her somewhat. Moreover, the kiss had not yet ended!

But at such a crucial moment, neither of them dared to have any frivolous thoughts. Both summoned all their spirit to control the Star Force inside their bodies, maintaining an absolute balance.

The devastation following the collapse of the Heaven's Life Spring was too severe and lasted too long, causing both of them unbearable pain and nearly plunging them into a situation with no hope of recovery.

Could it be that they needed to initiate "negative" distance contact stimulation?

Just then, Chu Hao suddenly felt the impact within his body begin to weaken, and at a rapidly decreasing rate.

The Three Great Life Springs finally shattered completely, overcoming the greatest difficulty!

Su Wanyue's consciousness was also pulled back from the brink of collapse, and she let out a long breath—the cold sweat covering her body, tensed up each muscle. Eventually regaining her senses, she couldn't help feeling both embarrassed and angered, biting Chu Hao hard.

"Ah—" Chu Hao's head jerked back, and though he was practiced in Body Cultivation, his tongue was still tender, causing him a burst of pain. Thankfully, there was no bleeding, "Are you a dog or something?" He transmitted his voice through Divine Sense.

Su Wanyue rolled her eyes at him. The fellow was still acting coy after having gained an advantage, utterly despicable! Yet now was just getting past the first hurdle, she wasn't going to settle scores with him just yet.

Chu Hao chuckled mischievously, then quickly composed himself, joining hands with Su Wanyue to start reshaping the Life Spring.

Under the pressure of both their Star Forces, the three Life Springs, which had been shattered into rings, started to reassemble. However, the Three Great Life Springs had a strong "memory" and actually started reforming into their original shape.

How could this be allowed, wouldn't all their efforts, sufferings, and struggles have been in vain?

Both used their Star Force urgently, forcing the Three Great Life Springs to merge.

This was impossible for either of them alone, for the Life Spring is the source of power, who could suppress the source of power with their own? Yet together, Yin and Yang complementing each other, they managed to do so.

They supported me, I supported them, and the mutual enhancement of their Taiyin and Taiyang constitutions increased such power.

The shattered pieces of the Life Spring began to reform.

The speed was slow, but neither was in a hurry, as they were creating martial arts history, something that couldn't be rushed.

The beginning was the hardest, but once the nascent form of the Unique Life Spring was established, the rest was easier, continuously attracting the fragments of the Life Spring to merge, expanding the Unique Life Spring.

In both their Dantians, a super Life Spring was taking shape!

When this Life Spring reached a certain size, it actually didn't require their active intervention anymore—it began to spin on its own, creating a vast vortex. The remaining fragments rushed into it like thirsty horses to water, automatically merging with it.

But upon closer inspection, one could see that the Life Springs of the two were rotating in opposite directions, one clockwise, the other counterclockwise, repelling and attracting each other, a truly marvelous sight.

Another day passed, and the Unique Life Spring was fully formed!

"You can let go of me now!" Su Wanyue spoke up.

"No!" Chu Hao shook his head vehemently. He could never hold her enough.

"You—" Su Wanyue glared at Chu Hao, she hadn't expected him to be so shameless.

Chu Hao leaned in and kissed her again.

"Mmph!" Su Wanyue's eyes instantly widened in shock, another kiss? Was he addicted to kissing? She immediately made a move to push Chu Hao away, but as her palms landed on his body, all of her force dissipated as if sinking into the ocean, leaving no trace.

As Su Wanyue kept striking, none of her attacks had any effect on Chu Hao, all being absorbed by him.

Her resistance became weaker and weaker as she fought until she eventually gave up, letting Chu Hao kiss her contentedly until a few minutes later, when Chu Hao attempted to go further, she suddenly came to her senses and quickly pushed him away.

The revolution had not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard!

Chu Hao laughed wryly, satisfied enough, having closed the distance between them by an immeasurable gap, almost enough to seal the deal. And for that, he wasn't entirely certain, because at the last moment, he thought of Gu Qingcheng, leaving him undecided.

"Let's see what benefits we've gained?" he said.

Su Wanyue gave him a cold look. This scoundrel had taken her first and second kiss without even a word of explanation? Absolutely despicable!

Yet Chu Hao moved closer and gave her another kiss, only this time it was brief, and he quickly drew back, leaving Su Wanyue with a sense of unfulfilled longing, blushing with embarrassment.

"I seem to have gained the ability to absorb strength," Chu Hao said, feeling the numerous strikes from Su Wanyue hadn't gone unnoticed.

"Wasn't it possible to absorb strength after forming the Three Great Life Springs?" Su Wanyue, putting aside her shyness for the moment, responded formally.

"It's different, after forming the three Life Springs, I couldn't fully absorb the force of the strikes, at most around 20 to 30 percent," Chu Hao thought for a moment and said.

Don't underestimate that 20 to 30 percent of power, it definitely created an insurmountable gap in confrontations among equals.

"But the force from your strike just now, I absorbed it all," Chu Hao continued.

"Maybe the force I used wasn't strong enough?" Su Wanyue speculated.

"Then hit me with all your strength."

"Okay!"

Su Wanyue nodded without hesitation, causing Chu Hao to smirk, thinking to himself how vengeful women can be. It's just a few kisses, now etched on her 'little notebook', and when asked to hit him with all her strength, she didn't hesitate at all.

Are you not afraid you'll hurt me?

Boom, Su Wanyue's palm strike already came slashing down!

Chu Hao gritted his teeth, stood his ground, and took the blow head-on, thinking that compared to kissing the woman he loved, what was one palm strike?

"Wow!" He took the strike and immediately staggered backward, violently spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Why didn't it work?

"You really didn't hold back with that force!" Chu Hao grimaced in pain, and if he hadn't practiced body techniques, that palm strike could have taken his life.

Su Wanyue showed a look of concern, yet she said, "I didn't even use my full strength! You said you could absorb the power, why didn't it work?"

"I understand now!" Chu Hao slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "When we were re-forging the Life Spring previously, the Life Spring was operating, but once it was successful, the Life Spring stopped, and that's why the effect vanished. Since it's the ability of the Unique Life Spring, it definitely needs the Unique Life Spring! Try again, I will keep the Life Spring in motion now."

Su Wanyue's frown deepened as she said, "Do you really want to try again?" She truly feared causing him serious injury.

"Of course, we finally condensed the Unique Life Spring, naturally we must figure out exactly what it can do," Chu Hao immediately nodded in agreement.

"Alright then!" Su Wanyue nodded and with a focused right hand, she struck with another palm.

This time, Chu Hao activated the Unique Life Spring.

Thud, the palm struck, but it was as if nothing had happened, as gentle as a lover's tender caress.

"Hiss!" Both Chu Hao and Su Wanyue gasped in surprise, their eyes wide.

This was terrifying, a full-blown strike from a Peak War King didn't even make Chu Hao step back, and what's more critical, he didn't put up any defense but merely activated the Unique Life Spring.

Such an ability... was body cultivation still necessary?

It was too powerful!

But when he thought about it, it made sense, for no one in history had ever accomplished it before, how could the Unique Life Spring not be incredible?

"However, I suspect that beyond a certain level of strength, it would still be impossible to absorb," Chu Hao reasoned, "For instance, if a War Venerate were to punch me, a lower-tier wouldn't be an issue, but a Peak War Venerate would certainly be able to injure me."

Su Wanyue nodded, the Unique Life Spring represented the true pinnacle within the Middle Three Realms, but due to realm limitations, the Upper Three Realms would still pose a colossal threat. Of course, once they broke through to the War Venerate Realm, they naturally wouldn't fear other War Venerates, and after becoming War Emperors, they would reign supreme within the War Emperor Realm.

How could an achievement that broke historical records be ordinary?

"My Unique Life Spring seems to be a bit different," Su Wanyue said.

"Then I'll hit you as a test," Chu Hao said, raising his palm, and with a smile, he added, "But I'm not as ruthless as you, I'll only use a tiny bit of strength." As he struck with his palm, landing it on Su Wanyue's abdomen, a force immediately rebounded, sending his upper body lurching backward.

"Huh!" They both exclaimed in surprise again.

Chu Hao realized the force that struck him was exactly the force he had emitted, and he certainly knew his own power the best. This meant... Su Wanyue's Life Spring's effect was to reflect the force!

One absorbed, the other reflected.

Chu Hao couldn't help but feel envious as he said, "You're more formidable than me, I can only absorb power, but you can reflect it, delivering a heavy blow back to the enemy."

He was only invincible in defense, but Su Wanyue, on top of being invincible in defense, could also reflect attacks back at her opponents, which was naturally even more formidable.

Wait a second!

Chu Hao suddenly came to a realization; what about the force that entered his body? It couldn't just vanish into thin air, could it? Could it be...He immediately understood; he absorbed power, any attack that hit him merely replenished his own strength. It was just that previously the accumulation of his Star Force had already reached full capacity, so it had "overflowed" the moment it was absorbed.

He couldn't help but ponder, in conjunction with the Flame Furnace, couldn't this also have other uses?

"This adventure of ours truly paid off!" Su Wanyue said with great interest, previously she had relied on the Xuanyin Sword to become the strongest War King, but now she was truly worthy of the title.

"Indeed, it was worth every bit!" Chu Hao looked at her lovely red lips and chuckled mischievously. (To be continued. If you like this work, you can go to qidian.com to vote and support me. Your encouragement is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
