It was like pouring water on a hot pan, and it resembled the explosive end of the world, as the Yin Yang Qi violently collided.
Yang Qinglan's body flickered with Yin Yang Divine Light, ghostly and ethereal, with the Chaos Yin Snake at her brow hissing.
The Yang Qi from Li Changzhou offered no resistance, submitting entirely to the Yin Qi, allowing the other to dominate.
The most ferocious Yang Qi combined with the purest Yin Qi gave birth to traces of Chaos, causing Yang Qinglan's aura to surge wildly.
Swallowing this Chaos, Yang Qinglan's strength could increase tenfold, a hundredfold, but—
"Hu." She slowly exhaled the wisp of Chaos.
Without Yang Qi, Li Changzhou aged rapidly, on the verge of death, yet his expression remained composed, quietly waiting until Yang Qinglan exhaled the Chaos.
He opened his mouth and inhaled the Chaos.
His withered body was instantly revitalized.
The Chaos Yang Snake at his forehead roared, quickly swelling in size from the scale of a loach to one meter long.
And it wasn't just the Visualization improving, or just the "Ability" increasing, Li Changzhou felt his strength, speed, and constitution soaring.
Any person would be immersed in the pleasure of this rapid increase in power.
But neither Li Changzhou nor Yang Qinglan could afford it, as either would die from the loss of Yin Qi or Yang Qi if the power was monopolized by one.
"Hu!" Li Changzhou exhaled the wisp of Chaos.
"Hiss—!" The Chaos Yang Snake seemed to reproach him, unwilling to let go of the Chaos.
Li Changzhou paid it no mind, his heart only held Yang Qinglan.
He could have kept the Chaos within his body longer, but he dared not; for every second he grew stronger, Yang Qinglan edged a second closer to death.
Yang Qinglan drew the Chaos into her breath, her dim skin once again radiant, like an immortal fairy.
She ignored the dissatisfaction of the Chaos Yin Snake, and without waiting for Li Changzhou to weaken to the extreme, she spewed out the Chaos.
Thus, they continued, inhaling and exhaling the Chaos, keeping it circulating.
At some moment, the Chaos Yang Snake and Chaos Yin Snake within their minds stopped complaining about sharing the Chaos, and like the two people, began caring and looking after each other.
In such a condition, rather than diminishing, the Chaos grew because of the harmonious balance of Yin and Yang between them.
As time passed, the Chaos Yang Snake completely merged with Li Changzhou, and Yang Qinglan became one with the Chaos Yin Snake.
As the Heavenly Light grew brighter, filtering through the leaves, the two figures vanished, leaving behind a black and a white snake intertwined and coiling silently around each other, twisting and tumbling without a sound.
A thread of Chaos flowed between the two large snakes, each seven to eight meters long, in their breath.
With each breath, the snake bodies rose and fell, growing larger in the blink of an eye.
For Li Changzhou and Yang Qinglan, they had long forgotten about cultivation, feeling an unparalleled joy deep within their souls.
This joy was not like the pleasure of the flesh; it was more akin to happiness, making one feel earnestly that being alive was so meaningful, and life so wondrously beautiful.
On another branch of the giant tree, a Snowy Owl shook off all its white feathers, like a fledgling just hatched.
In the depths of his Dantian, Li Changzhou's Giant Kun, that resembled a tadpole in a pond, suddenly let out a heavenward cry.
A thought crossed Li Changzhou's mind; when Chaos entered his body, he concentrated on nourishing his Dantian.
The Dantian suddenly expanded, and the Giant Kun grew with it, as large as the Dantian itself!
Li Changzhou then exhaled the Chaos and gave it back to the White Snake that Yang Qinglan had become.
The Dantian ceased expanding, and the now frog-sized Giant Kun fell dormant.
The ugly and frail fledgling, like a documentary in fast forward, grew one golden feather after another, looking exactly like the Roc from the Scripture of Mountains and Seas!
At that moment, the Giant Kun rose suddenly, smashing through the Dantian on its own!
When the Chaos returned, Li Changzhou once again nourished the Giant Kun, which now infused with Chaos, rampaged like Pangu forging the world, vehemently expanding its habitat within the Dantian.
And as the Giant Kun grew stronger, the Roc, Li Qianxia's incarnation, also visibly increased in size.
Maintaining this delicate balance, the three of them plunged into a deeper state of cultivation.
It was only on Sunday night that they awoke from their cultivation.
The Chaos split back into Yin and Yang, now dozens of times stronger than before, returning to their bodies and transforming into the omnipotent Five Elements, nourishing their bodies and spirits.
"Brother! Look at me—eek!" Li Qianxia hastily covered her eyes.
Through the blatantly spread fingers, she saw Li Changzhou and Yang Qinglan embracing each other.
Yang Qinglan's face nestled on Li Changzhou's neck, while Li Changzhou's face was deeply buried in Yang Qinglan's flowing hair, their legs entwined and intertwined in a way that, without careful attention, it was hard to tell where one ended and the other began.
