Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 740: Ye Chen Said Nothing!

At Yao Yuezhiʼs words, Ye Chen chuckled at once. This was mere foreplay, after all. And she hadnʼt rolled her eyes—clear proof she hadnʼt hit her limit yet. Anyone with experience knew the truth. True discomfort left one unable to form full sentences, reduced to mere whimpers. All that shouting and moaning? Just to spare a manʼs fragile ego...

Ye Chen saw through her ploy too: she simply didnʼt want to draw from his cave heaven. Whether from pure heart or self-interest, it mattered little. Such a kind-hearted girl deserved restoration to her former glory—and beyond her peak. After this brief transfer, his own domain had scarcely shrunk—an infinitesimal dip. At this rate, it might drag on for a full year!

Ye Chen couldnʼt stomach such a wait. He needed to accelerate again. So he murmured softly, ”Yuezhi, I know your intentions, but you truly donʼt grasp the depths of my foundation! For now, set all else aside. Just focus on nurturing your cave heaven. Qiankun Cauldron—speed up for me. Letʼs see where your limits truly lie...”

His words barely faded before Ye Chen willed it so. The cauldron whirled faster. The two channels formed by their pressed palms and laced fingers swelled full with his cave heaven essence. Transmission flow hit its absolute peak.

The sudden surge caught Yao Yuezhi unawares, parting her small mouth in shock. As the vigorous essence flooded in, she felt a dizzying blend of joy and torment. Deep down, how could she not crave a return to her original domain? Yet her fear for Ye Chenʼs immortal prospects overshadowed it. After all, one manʼs ascension lifted his dogs to heaven, too. With Ye Chenʼs love for her—children or no—she trusted heʼd reserve one precious slot for her.

”Brother Ye, enough—truly enough. I canʼt take more... stop, please—save some for yourself!”

Yao Yuezhi watched her domain breach a hundred li across. Panic mounted as she cried out to him.

Ye Chen gazed at her in genuine surprise. What endurance! Even at max flow, she merely gaped—no rolled eyes in sight. Worthy of her five-thousand-fold Heavenly Demon Physique; her capacity dwarfed that of the prior Heavenly Desire divine maiden.

Yao Yuezhi thought the pace blistering already. But since she hadnʼt tapped her ceiling, acceleration continued. Still, the arm-formed channels had reached their brink. Pushing further risked collapse. New conduits were essential.

With his experience from the Heavenly Desire Sect, Ye Chen handled the creation of new channels with effortless grace. A flicker of intent, and his divine soul emerged. He spoke to Yao Yuezhi at once, instructing her to summon hers as well.

Yao Yuezhi fretted over her swelling domain, yet without command of the Qiankun Cauldron, she stood powerless to halt the tide. At Ye Chenʼs words, confusion flickered in her eyes. But she asked nothing. In utter obedience, she manifested her divine soul, letting it stand opposite his.

Ye Chenʼs soul raised a gentle hand, pointing lightly to the center of Yao Yuezhiʼs brow. In that instant, the Heavenly Desire Sectʼs soul communication technique flowed into her.

Yao Yuezhi, who had lingered in faint bewilderment, gazed upon the scriptureʼs words and effects in her mind, her delicate face flushing crimson... She knew without doubt—Ye Chen had indeed thought of this!

Yet now, moved beyond measure, she stood ready to give him anything. What was a mere soul-intercourse compared to that? It paled beside even a fraction of what he had sacrificed for her. So she shot him a coquettish glare. ”Brother, youʼre so naughty...”

That glance, paired with her fragile features, held no threat at all. It wielded lethal allure against any man.

Yao Yuezhi herself wasted no time, diving straight into cultivating the technique. The soul-intercourse method proved far from profound. With her aptitude, she mastered it in a heartbeat. She then drifted toward Ye Chenʼs soul, her voice a soft murmur. ”Brother, youʼre naughty... but I love it so much...”

In the next breath, their souls intertwined! The strange sensation blurred Yao Yuezhiʼs emerald eyes in an instant. Her physical cheeks bloomed with sunset hues!

As this marked her first such union, Yao Yuezhiʼs entire mind plunged into uncharted realms, leaving the Qiankun Cauldron forgotten.

Ye Chen, seasoned in such matters, split his focus to guide them. Once their souls fully merged, he forged a third connection channel. The pent-up cave heaven essence, long poised to surge, roared forth from the new path, unstoppable...

...

Yao Yuezhi, still utterly caught off guard, watched her eyes and small mouth fly open in unison this time. As her gestation speed doubled once more, how could she fail to understand? Ye Chen wasnʼt after pleasure at all. He simply wanted to help her coalesce her cave heaven faster. Ye Chen truly thought of her every moment of every day.

Once Yao Yuezhi adjusted briefly, her physical form blurted out in urgency, ”This... wonʼt do, Brother. You canʼt throw away your immortal path for my sake. My domainʼs already nearing a thousand li. Itʼs enough—truly enough!”

Yao Yuezhi pleaded desperately, hoping Ye Chen would halt the cauldronʼs draw on his essence.

Ye Chen, watching her, felt genuine shock! To think this harmless, petite, and utterly adorable Yao Yuezhi possessed such ferocious endurance? A mere flicker of daze, and she bounced back as if nothing had happened.

Though Ye Chen had always known her fragility was a mere facade—the Heavenly Demon Body, famed for its fleshly might, could never breed true weakness—her astonishing resilience still delighted him. If that was the case, then forging another channel was in order. Time to test her true limits!

Ye Chen leaned down gently, his lips seeking hers. Yao Yuezhi had been mid-plea for him to stop. But at his motion, her words died on her tongue. Though she suspected he merely aimed to silence her,

Yao Yuezhi still met him with a coquettish pout, leaning in proactively. Only after a long, lingering while did they part, a silken thread of connection lingering between.

Yao Yuezhi finally mustered the focus to check her state. Seeing her domain stretch to two thousand li across, anxiety gripped her tighter; she urged Ye Chen to end it swiftly. Yet before she could voice it, her eyes bulged wide again. For a new channel had formed right at that silken threadʼs path.

Ye Chen offered no quarter for reaction—the ferocious cave heaven essence roared forth at full throttle. And this fourth conduit dwarfed the prior three combined in width.

This time, Yao Yuezhi went rigid from head to toe, her eyes rolling back as her mind blanked entirely. She couldnʼt even muster words. Were it not for their laced fingers anchoring her, she might have toppled backward outright.

...

At the sight, Ye Chen finally smiled in satisfaction. If drawing his essence came easy, leaving her breezy and in control, wouldnʼt that make him seem... inadequate? Now, with those rolled eyes? Perfectly pitched!
