Immortality System: Cultivating with Girls

It's different, truly different.

The two white tiger genius spirits seemed the same, yet they were not.

The essence was indeed the same, but still, they were different.

Only Murong Fenghua, the person involved, truly understood the distinction.

"Xiao Bai, is that you?"

Murong Fenghua's eyes sparkled, and with her slender white hands, she gently caressed Xiao Bai. A heartfelt smile appeared on her face for the first time.

"AWOO!"

Xiao Bai affectionately nudged forward with its furry head, as if responding to Murong Fenghua.

It's me, it's me.

"Xiao Bai, it really is you!"

Murong Fenghua immediately became excited, firmly hugging it in her arms.

She wasn't mistaken; it really was her Xiao Bai. This was the white tiger genius spirit she had initially merged with. The two of them had grown up together from a young age, connected by flesh and blood, inseparable. It's a pity that her primordial fetus shattered, and everything vanished. Although the white tiger genius spirit had recondensed within her body, it was clearly different. The essence was the same, but the emotional connection was not.

She's so excited, she must have discovered it...

Wen Zhixing watched the uncontrollably excited Murong Fenghua, his heart hanging somewhat in suspense.

Their relationship really is quite strange. This Xiao Bai does indeed belong to Murong Fenghua. Their hearts are connected. After all, it's a one-to-one replica, no different from the original. But in reality, I am Xiao Bai's true Master. If I wanted to, I could recall the white tiger genius spirit at any time.

"But... that's not right... how could it be... how could it be like this?"

After the initial joy, Murong Fenghua began to calm down.

Impossible. How could Xiao Bai still exist? If Xiao Bai were still here, then I'd be a mortal body. How could I possibly nurture another white tiger genius spirit?

"AWOO!"

Xiao Bai shook its large head, then entered Murong Fenghua's Sea of Sense with practiced ease. It lay down comfortably, its eyes narrowing in contentment.

But all this only made Murong Fenghua more confused.

"Could it be... an illusion?"

Murong Fenghua was suddenly alarmed.

My inner vigilance is raised. Xiao Bai cannot possibly exist, which means... I might have fallen into a trap! All of this is an illusion. It's fake! Yet, everything before me seems too real. Even with my strength, I can't spot the slightest anomaly.

"Spiritual Treasure - Barrier Breaking Pearl!"

The next moment, Murong Fenghua narrowed her eyes, and a creamy white pearl appeared in the palm of her hand.

"What is this..."

Upon seeing this, Wen Zhixing's body instantly stiffened. What in the world is this pearl? No way, what is Murong Fenghua trying to do now? This psycho isn't going to attack, is she?

Wen Zhixing had never possessed a Spiritual Treasure, but he could tell at a glance that this item was undoubtedly extraordinary. Spiritual Treasures ranked above Spiritual Instruments. Most were treasures born from the heavens and the earth, though some were also crafted by top refiners. The Barrier Breaking Pearl's specific function was to breach all array prohibitions and any space barrier. Its only flaw was the long recovery time needed for its energy after a single use.

"Break the barrier!"

Murong Fenghua let out a low shout, and the Barrier Breaking Pearl immediately floated in mid-air, radiating a milky white glow.

HUM!

An incredibly vast aura emanated from within the Barrier Breaking Pearl. The world before her was enveloped in light.

"Damn!"

Wen Zhixing's vision whited out as the light transformed into mist, enveloping everything before him. The surrounding space seemed to twist and contort.

Faced with this sudden development, he suppressed the urge to flee. Although I don't know what Murong Fenghua is up to, she's probably not targeting me. I'll wait and see.

「A moment later.」

The mist before them dissipated, and everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened at all.

"How can this be?"

Murong Fenghua stared at the unchanged scene before her, completely stunned.

Did the barrier breaking fail? Does this mean there's no illusion here? And inside me, Xiao Bai shows no abnormalities. It's lying peacefully within my Sea of Sense. My divine soul is constantly throbbing with excitement. If I weren't still recovering, I would even want to merge with Xiao Bai right here and achieve the primordial spirit!

"It really... everything is real..."

Murong Fenghua's eyes widened, but her gaze was vacant.

In all my years of cultivation, I've never encountered such a bizarre situation. Something that should be impossible is happening right before my eyes.

"What on earth is this woman doing!"

Wen Zhixing watched the stupefied Murong Fenghua, utterly exasperated.

I really can't figure her out. I've never met anyone crazier. Incomprehensible, completely incomprehensible.

"Junior Sister... what... what are you doing..."

Wen Zhixing, feeling helpless, braced himself and spoke, a fitting look of astonishment in his eyes.

I have no choice; I have to ask. If I don't, what if Murong Fenghua decides she can't keep up the act anymore and just drops it?

"I..."

Upon hearing his words, Murong Fenghua snapped back to reality, but for a moment, she wasn't sure how to respond.

There's no way I can explain this to Wen Zhixing.

"Junior Sister, this pearl seems most extraordinary—is it for me?"

Wen Zhixing took a deep breath, changed the subject, and asked with feigned delight. 'Courtesy demands reciprocity,' as they say. So asking isn't entirely out of line.

"This..."

Upon hearing such a brazen request, Murong Fenghua fully came to her senses. Then she saw Wen Zhixing looking expectantly at the Barrier Breaking Pearl in her hand.
