As the origin of heaven and earth merged into her, a layer of pure white halo appeared on the surface of Dongfang Jinyao's soul. This halo became increasingly dense, enveloping her entire soul in a cocoon that radiated holy light.
Under the halo of light, the pure white divine soul began to undergo a transformation.
Her already well-defined features became even more delicate and refined under the nurturing influence of nature, with every line flowing with natural charm.
Those tightly closed eyes, though not yet open, already revealed a lively quality identical to that of Dongfang Jinyao, with boundless vitality hidden beneath their calm surface.
As the energy continuously flowed into the heavens and earth, the body of the soul, nourished by this power, was becoming increasingly solid at a visible speed, as if it were slowly emerging from the mist and stepping into the real world.
Finally, after absorbing enough power from the origin of heaven and earth, the transformation of the divine soul reached its peak.
The next moment, the light around the transformed soul receded, and it naturally merged back into Dongfang Jinyao's dantian.
In an instant, a brand new power emanated from Dongfang Jinyao, spreading outwards like ripples. Her aura began to surge wildly, and the force emanating from her caused the surrounding space to tremble.
Seeing this, Qin Luo finally felt relieved. Feeling the rapidly increasing aura, he murmured:
"The soul tribulation has been overcome. From now on, only the final step remains for transcending the mortal realm and becoming a saint."
After passing through the three tribulations to become a saint, one's physical body, dantian (energy center), and divine soul all reach an extraordinary and transcendent state.
Now, the final hurdle before Dongfang Jinyao on the path to the Saint Realm is to condense the Origin Sea, which contains the power of the very origin of heaven and earth.
Only upon success can one truly enter the realm of sainthood, transcending the ordinary and gaining control over the universe.
As Qin Luo's voice fell, after Dongfang Jinyao's aura surged to its limit within the Extinction Spirit Orchid, a shattering sound resounded from her dantian.
As the shattering sound resounded from Dongfang Jinyao's dantian, a terrifyingly powerful aura instantly erupted from her body, sweeping outwards with unstoppable force.
Even Qin Luo, standing not far away, felt an immense pressure bearing down on him, making him gasp for breath, and then he couldn't help but let out a bitter smile:
"Is this the immense power possessed by a sage? The aura emanating merely from condensing the Sea of Origin is already so terrifying. The difference between a sage and a mortal is truly as vast as heaven and earth..."
At the same time, in the void behind Dongfang Jinyao, a vast, pure white ocean slowly appeared. That ocean was boundless and turbulent, radiating powerful spiritual energy.
Each rolling wave seems to be formed from the purest essence of heaven and earth.
As time passed, the vast ocean behind Dongfang Jinyao began to calm down, and its light gradually subsided. However, the aura unique to the Saint Realm did not weaken in the slightest; instead, it became even more refined and profound.
When the source is concentrated, a sage is formed!
Dongfang Jinyao rose gracefully, her long, jet-black hair as smooth as silk, dancing freely in the gentle breeze.
Her naturally beautiful face gained an even more ethereal charm upon entering the realm of sainthood, even without makeup.
Her former delicate and lovely temperament, under the influence of this charm, is like a lively wind chime in the mountains.
It doesn't compete with peonies for beauty, nor does it vie with roses for fragrance. Instead, it sways merrily in the breeze on the sun-drenched hillside, appearing playful and romantic.
It is so captivating that one cannot help but be immersed in it, feeling completely at ease, and the whole world becomes brighter because of this vibrant color.
[Dongfang Jinyao has reached the first-grade saint level. Based on her current affection value for the host: 139 (to be married); therefore, the return bonus will be randomly distributed between 140 and 700 times.]
[Cultivation points returned doubled, multiplier 658, granting 658 times the cultivation of a First-Rank Saint. Currently in storage for return.]
Upon hearing the system notification, Qin Luo subconsciously focused his attention on the returned storage, only to find that the spiritual energy being returned this time was somewhat unusual:
[Returned Storage: Dongfang Jinyao: Pending Return: 658 times the cultivation of a First-Rank Saint. (Danger) (Note: Each woman can store a maximum of five times!)]
"Huh? What does 'danger' mean? Does it mean it's afraid this returned spiritual energy will overwhelm it?"
Unfortunately, Qin Luo didn't have much time to think.
Just after Dongfang Jinyao successfully broke through, her bright eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, eagerly searching for Qin Luo's figure.
Finally, the moment her gaze precisely caught Qin Luo, her originally clear eyes instantly turned melancholy, and then resentful.
Then, she let out a soft hum, her voice like the gentle song of a nightingale, tinged with a hint of playfulness. At the same time, the corners of her mouth turned up, and a sly smile spread across her exquisite face.
With a gentle push of her delicate hand, she conveyed a powerful and seemingly gentle force.
Behind her, pure white spiritual energy hissed and flew towards Qin Luo from the sea of origin. The spiritual energy was extremely fast, and wherever it passed, white ripples were carved into the space.
"What's going on? This girl just broke through to the next level, is she trying to take her anger out on me?"
The sudden change snapped Qin Luo back to his senses. Startled, he recalled his earlier actions and instinctively circulated his spiritual energy, causing a faint glow to emanate from his body.
However, in the next moment, Qin Luo's thoughts shifted, and he slowly withdrew his defensive stance, waiting for the spiritual energy to rush towards him.
A sky full of white light rushed towards Qin Luo, but when the radiance actually touched his body, it did not have the earth-shattering power he had imagined, nor the fierce impact he had expected.
Instead, a beautiful red figure silently rushed into Qin Luo's arms.
Qin Luo instinctively stretched out his arms and caught the person safely. Before he could say anything, a coquettish voice rang out first:
"Who gave you the right to decide to trap me inside that Spirit-Extinguishing Orchid? Do you know how beneficial the spiritual energy inside is to you, enough to compensate for how much hardship you have endured?"
After speaking, Dongfang Jinyao raised her head, her beautiful eyes filled with grievance, her pink cheeks slightly puffed out, looking both adorable and pitiful. She gently pounded Qin Luo's chest with both hands, venting her dissatisfaction. However, she didn't dare to use too much force, unwilling to truly hurt the person she loved before her.
Seeing Dongfang Jinyao like this, Qin Luo gently grasped her hands and pulled her in front of him, sighing inwardly.
He knew that his good intentions were not well received by Dongfang Jinyao, which was a sign that he was beginning to occupy a more important place in her heart.
It is this concern that has manifested as resentment and grievance at this moment.
