But is the harmony of Yin and Yang really that comfortable?
Yun Shu had Cultivated for hundreds of years, and not to mention matters between men and women, she hadn't even experienced romantic feelings.
Seeing her good friend and bad influence always clinging to Zhou Fan, her formerly expressionless face now constantly wore a happy smile. Yun Shu suddenly wanted to find a Dao Companion too.
One day, Yun Shu went to chat with Yun Wuxin and brought up the matter. After teasing Yun Shu for a while, Yun Wuxin suggested,
"How do you feel about my Master Zhou?"
"Wuxin, what do you mean by that?"
"Exactly what you understand. My husband, whether in appearance, Aptitude, or inner qualities, is the best in the entire Cultivation World. Instead of looking for other unreliable people, why don't you come and be my sister?"
"Of course, since you'd be joining our family late, you definitely can't be the older sister. How about being my little sister?"
"Wuxin, what nonsense are you spouting? And why should I be the younger sister just because I join later? Is there no way for me to be the older sister?"
"Of course there's a way! My husband likes them big, voluptuous, and he's especially sentimental."
Yun Wuxin sat beside Yun Shu, her slender hands gesturing to compare their figures. "I didn't realize, Yun Shu, you actually have quite the assets! I distinctly remember you and I being about the same when we were teenagers."
"Did you secretly use a special Magic Treasure to fake it? Trying to use such methods to attract my husband's attention?"
Yun Wuxin pressed Yun Shu onto the bed, pretending to check if she had faked anything.
Yun Shu was both shy and annoyed. She forcefully pushed Yun Wuxin away, blushing as she chided, "Wuxin, stop teasing me! Who wants to snatch your Dao Companion? I just simply want to understand more about finding a Dao Companion."
Yun Wuxin chuckled, sitting up straight. "Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. Actually, when looking for a Dao Companion, it's best to find someone who suits your heart."
"But what I said about becoming sisters, I'm serious. My husband is simply too strong; I can't handle him alone."
Upon hearing this, Yun Shu thought of Zhou Fan's handsome appearance and powerful Cultivation. She didn't actually dislike him, but she couldn't accept establishing a Dao Companion relationship so quickly.
After pondering for a while, just as Yun Shu was about to say something, a knock suddenly sounded at the door.
Yun Wuxin opened the door, and Zhou Fan walked in quickly.
"Wuxin, I need to leave for a while, to the Nightmare Domain north of the Xuanyuan Dynasty."
"Husband, I want to go with you."
"There's no danger on this trip, so you can come along. But Yun Shu's magic power probably hasn't recovered yet. Wuxin, aren't you staying here to look after her?"
Seeing this, Yun Shu spoke, "My magic power has recovered a lot now, equivalent to the Early Stage of Nascent Soul. Master Zhou, could you take me with you on this trip? I should be able to help as well."
"Then let's go together."
Zhou Fan bid farewell to Yuesu. He had previously suggested that Yuesu join Luoyun Temple, but Yuesu said she still wanted to Cultivate in the Demon Beast Mountain Range for a while.
When she missed Zhou Fan, she would naturally go to Luoyun Temple to find him.
Zhou Fan didn't try to persuade her further. He set off with Yun Wuxin and Yun Shu. The three of them rode a Flying Sword and arrived at the Nightmare Domain twenty days later.
Zhou Fan didn't rush into this strange territory. Instead, he first met up with Huan Cai, who was waiting for him outside the Nightmare Domain.
"Master, you're finally here!"
Huan Cai transformed into a little loli, jumping into Zhou Fan's arms and crying, "These past few months have been terrifying! That Lin Xuanye broke through to Nascent Soul a while ago, and I don't know what evil Cultivation technique he practiced, but in just a few months, his Cultivation rapidly increased from the Early Stage of Nascent Soul to the Late Stage of Nascent Soul."
"He even discovered my tracking! If I, this butterfly, hadn't flown fast, I would have been cut into a dead butterfly (ㄒoㄒ)."
Zhou Fan waited for Huan Cai's mood to calm down a bit, comforted her with a few words, and then asked, "You previously sent me a message saying your clone butterfly last saw Lin Xuanye enter the Nightmare Domain. Is he still inside?"
"He should be inside, Master. In these 20 days, my clone butterflies haven't seen anyone come out of the Nightmare Domain."
"Good, Huan Cai, you did very well this time. After this incident is over, I'll grant you at least two years of long leave."
"Hehe, thank you, Master. Huan Cai will definitely work hard to do everything for Master."
After roughly understanding the situation, the three people and one butterfly entered the Nightmare Domain.
As soon as they entered the Nightmare Domain, a chilling, eerie aura assailed them. The surroundings were instantly enveloped in darkness, and visibility was extremely low.
Yun Shu circulated her magic power, and a soft light illuminated her body, attempting to dispel the strange darkness.
Suddenly, a group of dark shadows surged from all directions, moving extremely fast, surrounding everyone in the blink of an eye.
Huan Cai reverted to her Yao Beast form. She was about to bravely charge forward to continue showing her loyalty.
Yun Wuxin, beside her, struck out with a sword, and the group of dark shadows completely dissipated.
But before they could advance, the dark shadows reformed and converged on them again.
"You two continue to eliminate the dark shadows here for now."
Zhou Fan's figure flashed. His Primordial Spirit had already found the main body of the dark shadows tens of thousands of miles away—a colossal, pitch-black beast nearly a hundred meters tall.
Arriving a hundred miles from the pitch-black giant beast, Zhou Fan unfolded his Soul Transformation Domain and for the first time unleashed the special Spell inherent in the advanced chapter of the "Yin Yang Dao Dian"—the Yin Yang Grinding Mill.
The top of this grinding mill was Yang, and the bottom was Yin. The two attracted each other, with Yin and Yang Qi swirling in the center of the grinding mill, possessing both the ability to trap and to wear down the enemy's magic power and Physical Body.
The pitch-black giant beast roared. Although its power level reached the fourth tier, it seemed to lack Spirit Initiation.
After the Yin Yang Grinding Mill crushed it, its Divine Sense did not escape. Instead, it left behind a bead on the spot.
Zhou Fan used his magic power to pick up the bead and found that it contained a surge of Yin deep Qi.
This Yin deep Qi was not pure; it was mixed with other things. Zhou Fan didn't know what these things were, so he simply put the pitch-black bead into another empty Storage Pouch.
Returning to the two women, the group continued forward.
Zhou Fan's Primordial Spirit could extend thirty thousand miles away, and he quickly saw Nightless City, located at the center of the Nightmare Domain.
Nightless City was currently under siege by tens of thousands of pitch-black giant beasts. These beasts included second-tier, third-tier, and five fourth-tier ones.
The third-tier giant beasts were ten meters tall and tens of meters long, while the five fourth-tier giant beasts were even taller, reaching tens of meters in height and over a hundred meters in length.
However, none of them were as massive as the giant beast Zhou Fan had just eliminated.
The several thousand Cultivators within Nightless City were bravely resisting. Relying on the amplification Formation within Nightless City, those at the Early Stage of the third tier could exhibit the strength of the Middle Stage of the third tier.
At the same time, Zhou Fan also saw the three leaders of Nightless City. All three leaders had white hair: the First Leader was at the Late Stage of Nascent Soul, the Second Leader at the Middle Stage of Nascent Soul, and the Third Leader at the Early Stage of Nascent Soul.
The two sides were fighting back and forth. Zhou Fan used his Primordial Spirit to search and finally found Lin Xuanye.
At this moment, he was sitting leisurely beside the core of the city protection Formation deep underground in Nightless City.
As if sensing Zhou Fan's Primordial Spirit gaze, Lin Xuanye looked up and smiled at Zhou Fan, who was thirty thousand miles away, saying,
"Zhou Fan, you're finally here."
