ATG: My genius is almost frightening!

Chapter 121: Are you stupid?



With the reincarnation of the Ancestral Goddess curled in his arms, Yun Wuji collected the white sheet and teleported to her room.

He gently laid her on the bed, then folded the white sheet with care and placed it neatly on the desk beside her.

Girls...at least the ones in this world, seemed to hold this kind of thing in high regard, so Yun Wuji thoughtfully brought it with him.

Afterward, he moved to the sofa on the opposite side of the bed and sat cross-legged. Closing his eyes, he focused on the strange energy swirling around his abdomen.

It was Xiao Lingxi's vital yin! Nearly all his wives and women were virgins, and each time he did it with them for the first time, he would absorb their vital yin. By now, he was more than familiar with this concept, especially after developing his own dual cultivation technique. However, the vital yin he received from Xiao Lingxi this time felt a bit unusual. Vital yin is a type of profound energy, and each possesses a specific form. For instance, Murong Qianxue, Chu Yuechan, and the women from the Frozen Cloud all had water-attributed vital yin.

But this one didn't! He could sense it, yet at the same time, he couldn't! It felt as though it were nothingness itself. Sometimes it would transform into a gray, chaotic mass, and other times it would vanish entirely as if it didn't exist.

Yun Wuji felt that if he hadn't cultivated the Law of Nothingness, he likely wouldn't have been able to perceive it at all!

As he observed the energy swirling around his abdomen, he recalled the gray light that had flashed when he first penetrated Xiao Lingxi.

He guessed that it might have been a protective measure instinctively set by the Ancestral Goddess before initiating her reincarnation, a safeguard set up to prevent anyone from forming a sexual relationship with her reincarnated self.

She was undergoing a cycle of 1,000 reincarnations, during which she would be unable to access her powers. In fact, the very reason for this ordeal was to recover her full strength. Perhaps, during this long cycle of reincarnations, she had anticipated the possibility of forming a sexual relationship with one of her creations.

However, Yun Wuji had managed to bypass it due to his unique physique, or maybe it was because, strictly speaking, he wasn't entirely one of her creations.

'There's no point in dwelling on this,' Yun Wuji thought, quickly discarding these complex and unnecessary ideas as he turned his focus to refining the vital yin.

A surge of excitement flooded his soul, causing his soul sea to churn. Even Jasmine and the Evil Infant, who were connected to him, sensed his excitement!

Because even thinking with his toes, he knew that refining this vital yin would cause his understanding of the Law of Nothingness to soar!

And perhaps, if he continued to dual cultivate with Xiao Lingxi, his progress would only keep advancing!

In the novel, Yun Che hit a barrier in his understanding of the Law of Nothingness because he lacked the third part of the World-Defying Heaven Manual. Yun Wuji, however, was facing the same issue, his problem was even more severe, as he only had the first part, while Yun Che had both the first and second.

At that time, Yun Che proposed dual cultivation with He Ling, believing that her race, being the first creation of the gods, might help him deepen his understanding of the Law of Nothingness. However, this ultimately ended in failure.

But he got to fuck her...

On the other hand, Yun Wuji was dual cultivating with the reincarnation of the Ancestral Goddess, the very creator of the universe, and the World-Defying Heaven Manual!

The difference was so vast that there was simply no comparison!

Yun Wuji closed his eyes, dispelled the Omnipresent domain he had been using for a long time, and severed his senses.

"What is he doing?" Inside the Sky Poison Pearl, Jasmine sensed the changes in him and asked the Evil Infant, her curiosity piqued.

"Isn't it obvious? Master is cultivating," the Evil Infant shrugged dismissively, holding cards in her tiny hands. "It's your turn. Hurry up and play!"

"..." Jasmine sighed helplessly. This spirit was just too irresponsible and strange.

...

"Phew!" A few hours later, as the first rays of the sun streamed through the window, their golden warmth spilling onto his face, Yun Wuji slowly opened his eyes. Letting out a deep breath, he exhaled softly.

"Sometimes, my genius even frightens me," Yun Wuji said with a wide grin, stretching his arms lazily. This time, his comprehension of the Law of Nothingness had undergone a tremendous leap!

Before today, Yun Wuji had only been able to scratch the surface of the Law of Nothingness. He could barely use it to dissolve Divine Crystals and absorb their energy, which in turn boosted his profound strength and elevated his cultivation.

The problem, however, was that the amount of Divine Crystals was far too few. Yun Wuji had used up all his Divine Crystals long ago, and his subordinates were frantically scavenging across the continents. They had stripped every corner of the three continents, collecting every last bit of crystal they could find, but it still wasn't enough.

Currently, their efforts are concentrated on the oceans and underground waters, with the Supreme Ocean Palace spearheading the operation. They scoured every submerged and hidden corner, hoping to uncover new Divine Crystal mines. After all, with the oceans covering 97% of the planet's surface, it was only natural to expect them to hold the majority of untapped resources.

However, at this moment, Yun Wuji realized he could now absorb the energy within the beast's profound cores as well. This was something he had thought would only be possible if he possessed the second part of the World-Defying Heaven Manual!

Yun Wuji walked over to Xiao Lingxi, noticing she was peacefully asleep. He bent down and gently kissed her forehead, then her lips.

At the sensation of his touch, Xiao Lingxi's eyes fluttered open, her gaze still hazy from sleep. As she fully awoke, she looked at him in surprise and whispered, "Master!"

"You woke up," Yun Wuji said with a warm smile, gently caressing her face. "I didn't mean to wake you, sorry."

"Hmm," Xiao Lingxi murmured, holding his hand gently with both of hers. She closed her eyes, a soft hum escaping her lips as she relaxed, enjoying the warmth of his touch.

Yun Wuji, as her master, had always been gentle, kind, and supportive, offering her a sense of comfort she had grown used to. She always enjoyed his warm attention, but this time, his touch gave her a different feeling, it felt more romantic, which caused her heart to flutter.

"It's still early; you can go back to sleep," Yun Wuji chuckled softly.

"Master, are you going somewhere?" Xiao Lingxi suddenly opened her eyes, her tone timid as she asked.

"No, I'm not going anywhere. I want to stay here and look at my Lingxi the whole day," Yun Wuji laughed lightly, slipping into the bed and pulling her into his arms. "Hehe~ Master-" Xiao Lingxi giggled, resting her head on his chest. She then looked up at him, her voice soft as she asked, "Master... can I... can I call you Wuji as well?"

"Of course, you can, foolish! Why would you even need my permission for that?" Yun Wuji chuckled, lightly tapping her forehead with two fingers as if playfully reprimanding her. "Hmm!" Xiao Lingxi nodded, then buried her face into his chest, taking a deep breath as she savored his scent. In a soft whisper, she murmured, "Master... Wuji... hehe, Wuji... Wuji..." She stayed like that for a while, her breathing steady as she drifted back into a peaceful sleep

in his arms.

Yun Wuji waited for her to fall fully asleep, ensuring she was comfortable in his embrace. Then, with his free hand, he carefully retrieved a beast's profound core. It resembled a fist- sized, deep blue pearl, one of the very few Sovereign Profound Beast Cores.

In the entire three continents, there were fewer than 2,000 Sovereign Profound Beasts,

making this profound core an exceptionally rare treasure.

"What are you doing?" Jasmine, who had been observing him for a while, couldn't contain her

curiosity and asked.

"Absorb the energy in this core," Yun Wuji replied casually.

"What?" Jasmine exclaimed in surprise, "Are you stupid?! Are you whimsically planning on using these cores to help you break through to the Divine Origin Realm?!"

"That's right," Yun Wuji affirmed her guess.

"Heh! It seems this princess has overestimated you!" Jasmine scoffed at him, but inside, shen/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

felt a surge of joy, finally managing to take him down a peg. "The difference between the Sovereign Profound Realm and the Divine Origin Realm is extremely vast!"

"In case you still don't understand, let me put it in an even more straightforward way! If

everything from the Elementary Profound Realm to the Sovereign Profound Realm is considered one large realm, then the Divine Origin Realm would be another large realm!"

"Even if you were to absorb tens of thousands, or even a hundred thousand of Sovereign Beast Cores, it still wouldn't be enough! And even if it were, the time it would take would be ridiculously long. It would be far more worthwhile to simply cultivate on your own."

"Ok," Yun Wuji replied casually, not interrupting her as she spoke.

"???" Jasmine was taken aback, feeling like something had lodged in her chest. After all her words, all she received was this simple response from him?

Unbothered, Yun Wuji held the Sovereign Beast Core in his hand, closed his eyes, and entered the depths of his consciousness.
