The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

"I'll reveal a bit more to you," the innate spiritual wisdom sounded again.

"Do you think, with your current ability, you can subdue this spirit embryo? You better weigh that carefully for yourself. Once I'm devoured, and the spirit embryo becomes overwhelming, there's only one outcome for you as you are now: the spirit embryo backlash will shatter your Spirit Root."

The words of the innate spiritual wisdom deeply furrowed Tang Rao's brows.

It wasn't that he hadn't contemplated this issue.

"Don't tell me you possess the soul of a nearly ascended immortal, or that your Spirit Root is special. Without the support of a Great Realm, do you really think you can control such a mighty spirit embryo?" The innate spiritual wisdom sneered with a chuckle.

Tang Rao was at a loss for words because the innate spiritual wisdom's reasoning left him without any retort.

He indeed lacked confidence in controlling such a powerful spirit embryo.

"Help yourself, Tang Rao." The voice of the innate Spirit Root vibrated in Tang Rao's mind.

Tang Rao's thoughts were somewhat chaotic, as everything had become unfamiliar to him.

His past cultivation experiences were useless now.

"Fine!" In the span of a thought, Tang Rao made his decision.

Soul Power surged forth once again, all of it rushing towards the mighty spirit embryo.

Only by embedding the Soul Power could he gain control.

Dozens of seconds later, Tang Rao's head felt like exploding, his consciousness in dizzying disarray.

The struggle from the spirit embryo was too intense; rather than controlling, even a slight contact with the spirit embryo by the Soul Power would result in backlash and attack from the spirit embryo.

"What did I tell you?" The voice of the innate spiritual wisdom carried mocking laughter.

"Screw you, put in some effort too!" Tang Rao retorted rather angrily.

All talk and no action make a phony display, don't act so high and mighty; from what I see, you're not much better.

What innate spiritual wisdom, I believed in your bullshit.

"If you dare to screw me over, I'll ruin you even if it means losing all my cultivation!" Tang Rao threatened the innate spiritual wisdom.

It wasn't that Tang Rao was timid, but because in the Nine Realms of the Seventy-two Domains, he had seen cultivators suffer the backlash from their spiritual wisdom.

Though still alive and retaining all original memories,

ultimately, they were no longer themselves.

"I've told you, I am you, you needn't worry about that," the innate spiritual wisdom said, "Alright, I'll start exerting force now, but whether we succeed or not still depends on you."

Then, there was silence from the innate spiritual wisdom.

But soon Tang Rao felt the effects of the innate spiritual wisdom.

The mighty spirit embryo began to tremble, becoming agitated, clearly under attack from the portion of the spirit embryo occupied by the innate spiritual wisdom.

Tang Rao didn't hesitate, releasing all the Soul Power he could muster.

Countless soul tendrils wrapped around the spirit embryo frantically.

Tang Rao endured the intense pain resolutely, with no thoughts of retreat.

Even as the spirit embryo struggled wildly, he held onto it tightly with his Soul Power.

"Tang Rao, push harder, you're almost there," the voice of the innate spiritual wisdom sounded again after a while.

"I know, you don't need to keep yapping!" Tang Rao responded.

You sound so casual, but the one in pain isn't you, do you know the agony of forcibly controlling the spirit embryo? And such a big one at that, I'm about to pass out, do you get it?

"Idiot, cursing me is futile!" The innate spiritual wisdom shared Tang Rao's thoughts and instantly knew his grumbling, immediately retorted.

Tang Rao: "..."

It was hard to know how much time had passed, and Tang Rao felt he was nearing insanity.

The pain of having one's soul tormented and Spirit Root incessantly torn could only be understood by those who've experienced it.

That really was a uniquely painful experience...

But what comforted Tang Rao was that the powerful spiritual embryo seemed somewhat weakened.

The struggle was no longer as fierce, and furthermore, the spiritual embryo controlled by his innate spiritual wisdom was gradually growing stronger.

Clearly, under the joint efforts of the innate spiritual wisdom and Tang Rao, the results were not bad.

As one diminished and the other grew, the spiritual embryo controlled by the innate spiritual wisdom became more and more powerful, eventually surpassing the original dominant spiritual embryo.

Things then became much simpler.

Tang Rao's soul power easily rooted itself inside, taking full control of the spiritual embryo.

The controlled spiritual embryo ceased its resistance and was instantly assimilated.

Seeing the remaining majestic spiritual embryo, Tang Rao suddenly felt some remorse.

If at this time the innate spiritual wisdom had any malice, he feared he was powerless to resist and might be directly replaced.

"Ouch, malice my ass. I've said before, we are one and the same, symbiotic. If either of us is done for, there's no achieving the grand Dao," the innate spiritual wisdom said, clattering away after sensing Tang Rao's thoughts.

Tang Rao rolled his eyes. No matter what he thought, the innate spiritual wisdom knew, which really annoyed him.

What's more annoying is that he had no clue what the innate spiritual wisdom was thinking.

"All my thoughts actually come from you. You can simply consider it as you having schizophrenia, multiple personalities, something like that, anyway, that's the idea," the innate spiritual wisdom explained.

Schizophrenia my ass, would my soul, half a step into immortality like Tang Rao's, have schizophrenia?

"Don't make it sound so nice, hand over control to me," Tang Rao said directly.

"Go ahead, please feel free. But remember, I and you, will never become enemies," the innate spiritual wisdom muttered.

Tang Rao slightly released his soul power.

It effortlessly entered the exceedingly mighty spiritual embryo. Then, the soul power took root and sprouted, spreading to every corner of the spiritual embryo.

Total control!

The moment Tang Rao took full control of the spiritual embryo, he also became a true Qi Gathering Stage cultivator.

Er... well, to say cultivator is a bit of a stretch, in the Nine Realms of the Seventy-two Domains, one is only called a cultivator upon reaching Foundation Establishment.

"Now... I should be able to kill anyone below Foundation Establishment," Tang Rao joyfully thought.

Of course, what made him even more delighted was this formidable spiritual embryo.

It was many times more powerful than the one he had initially condensed.

"Hey... why aren't you talking now?" Tang Rao shouted, has this innate spiritual wisdom again fallen silent? Could it be brewing some conspiracy?

"Now you, you're not qualified to talk too much with me. Wait until you've developed your innate Spirit Body before we talk again..." the innate spiritual wisdom muttered, then went silent again.

Tang Rao felt a bit helpless; this innate spiritual wisdom really was quite enigmatic.

He didn't know if the emergence of this thing was a good or a bad thing.

Forget it, just take it one step at a time.

Tang Rao opened his eyes.

Right in front of him, at a very close distance, a pair of big eyes were staring at him.

Fuck!

Tang Rao hastily scooted backward.

"Auntie, what are you doing, you scared the life out of me!" Tang Rao glared at Bai Xiaotong, as his breathing was a bit disordered.

Just now, Bai Xiaotong was only a fist's distance away from him.

"I just wanted to see if you were dead, you haven't moved for so long," Bai Xiaotong snorted and gave Tang Rao a couple of glaring looks.

"Psh, you old woman, you must think I'm too handsome and can't help wanting to kiss me!" Tang Rao shouted.

"Fuck your shit, you fucking eunuch, I'm so beautiful, would I take a liking to someone like you, a guy without balls? Get the fuck out. Clean up and come down to eat, and after eating, come back with me to the Bai Family," Bai Xiaotong said, reaching out her hand and slapping Tang Rao's head several times.
