Chapter 196: Chapter 194 – Kun Essence Outside the Bodyl
Translator: 549690339
Upon hearing that, Ge Pu opened his palm, and two elixirs full of pure and dense spiritual power appeared in his hand.
One black, one white. The black elixir faintly had a swirl of white Qi around it, and the white elixir vaguely had a hint of black Qi playfully dancing on it.
“These are the pills I usually use to feed the Yin Yang Koi Fish. The Black Elixir feeds the Yin Kun, and the White Elixir feeds the Yang Kun.”
The two elixirs, one black and one white, floated towards Lu Xuan who gently picked them up. The spiritual energy swelled under his feet, shooting like an arrow to the Yin Yang Koi Fish that seemed to resemble the Tai Chi symbol.
He tossed the two elixirs into the mouths of the white and black Koi Fish respectively.
His mind focused on the Yin Yang Koi Fish, a thought flashed through his mind.
[Yin Yang Koi Fish, ancient exotic creatures, born of one body as twins. Fourth grade demon beast, in its growth period, naturally possesses Yin Yang Two Qi, proficient in various Yin Yang Techniques.]
[It has reached the breeding stage yet struggles due to its inability to fulfill the breeding conditions.]
[Why is it so hard to expel the Kun Essence?]
The last sentence of his thought seemed to carry a strong sense of regret and frustration.
From the Yin Yang Koi Fish, Lu Xuan perceived a desperate desire for mating. It wasn’t solely for base desires but more of a determination to carry on its lineage.
But it didn’t reveal how to help them breed…
With a show of examining the huge black and white bodies of the Yin Yang Koi Fish, Lu Xuan found himself in a dilemma.
He had gained a deeper understanding of these ancient exotic beasts, but he was at a loss about how to stimulate them to quickly enter their natural breeding state.
“Brother Ge Pu, a Sect True Inheritance Disciple at the Foundation Establishment Late-term Cultivation, must have sought help from many highly cultivated fellow sect members, spending a lot of cultivation resources.”
“If I can’t find any solutions, he might be disappointed, but he wouldn’t surely blame an Inner Sect Disciple who just promoted to Establishment.”
As he had this thought, he felt somewhat relieved. Meanwhile, he was going around the huge black and white-bodied Yin Yang Koi Fish, thinking about the solution.
Although he wouldn’t be in any danger regardless of the outcome, he still wanted to solve the problem to the best of his ability.
“Brother Ge’s usual method is to try his best to create a Yin Yang converging spiritual environment. But as the Yin Yang Koi Fish grew larger and elevated its grade, their requirements for the spiritual environment grew increasingly high, to the point where they simply cannot be satisfied anymore.”
“But could we maybe have a change of thought?”
“Like…external fertilization?”
The more Lu Xuan thought about it, the more feasible he felt the idea was.
“Creating a complete, large-scale Yin Yang converging spiritual environment is evidently challenging. However, from my understanding, Yin and Yang Qi can be converted into each other to a certain extent.”
“So, could we perhaps create a singular Yin or Yang Qi environment? For example, if we convert the White Yang Qi into Black Yin Qi to simulate the spiritual environment required by the Yin Kun, communicate with it, then allow it to release the Kun Essence,
Then, use the same method to let Yang Kun produce its Kun Essence, let the Yin and Yang Kun Essence combine externally, and then put them back into the Yin Yang Koi Fish.”
“There are two factors that we must consider. The first factor is if the Yin Yang Koi Fish would agree to this method, but from the information they’ve provided, their need for reproduction and continuation of their species far outweighs their own desires.”
“The other is whether Brother Ge Pu would accept this breeding method and if he would be able to create a unilateral spiritual environment.”
After pondering for a while in his mind, Lu Xuan landed on the ground.
“Junior Brother Lu, how’s the investigation? Got any inspiration?”
Just as he landed, the handsome cultivator with black and white eyes looked at Lu Xuan and asked with a deep voice.
“I did indeed come up with a method, but it’s quite unconventional.”
Lu Xuan said hesitantly.
“Junior Brother, go ahead and share. If I think it’s feasible, I will give it a try. The outcome will not be your responsibility.”
Having already tried various methods and met with disappointment, Ge Pu was filled with expectancy at Lu Xuan’s words.
” I have a small suggestion. Perhaps we should help the Yin Yang Koi Fish spawn Kun Essence by simply mimicking an environment rich in Yin or Yang Spiritual Energy…”
Lu Xuan slowly expressed his ideas.
“External conception… Brother Lu, you truly have extraordinary ideas!”
In Ge Pu’s eyes, patterns of spiritual energy flowed like ripples. In an excited tone, he spoke to Lu Xuan.
“Indeed.”
“Our previous attempts were constrained by traditional breeding methods. We only focused on satisfying the Yin Yang Koi Fish’s breeding conditions, completely ignoring the possibility of external conception.”
The middle-aged scholar next to them was also full of admiration, won over by Lu Xuan’s unique way of thinking.
Ge Pu calmed his emotions, weighing the pros and cons in his heart. The more he thought about it, the more plausible Lu Xuan’s suggestion seemed.
“Under this method, the two fish will, at most, expend some of their Kun Essence. The actual damage to their physical forms is insignificant. Even if we fail, as long as we make up for the deficiency, it’s no big deal. This is even safer than my previous methods.”
Having made up his mind, he floated into the air to communicate with the black and white giant fish that were still spinning around each other.
Immediately, a beam of black light shot from his dark pupils, entering the white section of the black and white water sphere in mid-air.
The shallow white water sphere immediately stirred up numerous ripples. The adjacent deep black water sphere rushed to assimilate, and soon, most of the shallow white sphere transformed into black Qi, merging into the deep black water sphere.
Not far away, the white Koi Fish, witnessing its home collapse in this way, let out a long mournful wail.
The sorrowful, eerie sound made Lu Xuan on the ground feel melancholic.
“Ah…”
“The koi… their home has collapsed…”
He let out a soft sigh before returning his gaze to Ge Pu in the air.
Upon the formation of the giant deep black water sphere, Ge Pu had already communicated with the Yin Yang Koi Fish. The black koi fish glanced at its companion, extended its giant fins to comfort its mate across a barrier, then, with a belief in continuing its life, jumped into the giant deep black water sphere.
Rich black Qi spread wildly, consolidating into a profound black ball the size of a fist in the belly of the black koi fish.
“This is the Kun essence of the black koi fish.”
Lu Xuan watched with interest as Ge Pu formed a shallow white water sphere, enclosing the profound blackball within it.
Then, the spiritual properties of the huge deep black water sphere gradually transformed, more and more shallow white spiritual energy appeared until a new Yang attribute water sphere was formed.
Ge pu followed the same method, guided the white Koi Fish into the shallow white water sphere, simulated a Yang attribute spiritual energy environment, and spawned the corresponding Kun essence.
The black and white essences of the two Koi Fishes merged together. The Yin and Yang energies constantly alternated, eventually forming a pair of exquisitely small black and white Koi Fishes.
The two newborn koi seemed somewhat weak. There was a faint tendency to dissipate from their bodies exposed to the outside.
Upon seeing this, Ge Pu hastily sent the two black and white koi into the bodies of their parent fish.
Each of the two small Koi happily swam in the bodies of their parent fish with a corresponding attribute, drawing nourishment from their bodies.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan couldn’t help but reflect.
“The old Koi are on the verge of extinction, but the new ones have risen from the ashes in an even stronger form.”
“The Koi’s spirit will live on for generations.”
