Infinite Awakening: My Exp Doubles Everyday - Chapter 375: Dual Cultivation?

Chapter 375: Dual Cultivation?
“Junior sister, please stop. This is too much,” Xiang Yu said softly.
Li Yao gripped his hands tightly and said, “Just hold on a little longer,” her expression wild with desire.
“But you said the same thing two hours ago,” Xiang Yu replied.
He looked at Li Yao, thinking to himself that something was strange about his wife.
He was so much stronger than her, so how was he losing this battle? As the struggle continued, he seemed to grow weaker and weaker. It was only a few minutes until the reset, and he would need his strength to handle some of the breakthroughs.
Li Yao was moving when her expression suddenly changed.
“Huh?” She was surprised. She reached down with her hand. “It’s… gone?” She looked at Xiang Yu in shock, only to notice something strange. “Breasts?” she wondered. Then, looking at her husband’s now delicate face, she paused.
“Let’s take a break for now,” the now female Xiang Yu said in a weak voice.
“Senior brother, you…” Li Yao stared at him. “I didn’t know you liked this sort of play,” she said, licking her lips. “Don’t worry, I don’t discriminate. I’m okay with this too.”
Xiang Yu’s expression turned angry. He hit her on the head. “What kind of play? Get off me, you’re so heavy,” Xiang Yu said, throwing Li Yao to the side.
She landed on the ground with a wince. Xiang Yu got up, his void silk moving immediately to dress him. He then threw Li Yao some fresh clothes, which she caught and used to cover herself.
She looked at Xiang Yu. “Senior brother, your transformation technique is really incredible. It even messes with your emotions,” she said.
“You… what’s happening with your body?” Xiang Yu asked.
Li Yao looked down at her body and noticed golden energy gathering around her. “This is…” she stared in shock, not understanding. She wondered if this was the strange feeling she had felt when playing with her husband.
[No way] the Empress said as she appeared.
“What is it?” Li Yao asked.
[The Heavenly Dao body. It’s actually upgrading] the Empress said.
“What?” Xiang Yu and Li Yao exclaimed in shock.
“But how is that possible?” The Empress held her chin in thought.
She thought to herself that the Heavenly Dao body was something Li Yao was born with, granted by the heavens. For it to upgrade, she must claim her heavenly fortune. But she was still stuck in the mortal world. Although the heavenly merit was also some sort of heavenly fortune, there was no way it would be enough to upgrade the Heavenly Dao body. She wondered if things were different for her since she was the Heavenly Dao Avatar.
“Ah, I think I get it,” she suddenly thought.
[You have the Transcendent Dao body, right?] the Empress asked. Xiang Yu nodded.
[That’s it. How could I have forgotten?] she said. [The Transcendent Dao body and the Heavenly Dao body could be considered extreme opposites, just like chaos and order] she explained. [When you two dual cultivate, merging your essences together, both bodies are stimulated. You do the same for your bloodlines, right?] the Empress questioned.
“That’s right,” Xiang Yu nodded.
“Wait, could it be…” Xiang Yu began.
[No, the Transcendent Dao body can’t make you invisible to the Heavenly Dao. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Since you’re extreme opposites, you attract each other] the Empress said.
Xiang Yu sighed. It seemed the issue was indeed the system.
He then looked at Li Yao, whose golden glow was still getting brighter. “Wait, then how come I was the one feeling weaker while she got stronger?” he asked.
[Hmm, that’s indeed strange. You both should get equal benefits. Wait, what level is your Transcendent Dao body?] she asked.
“Level two,” he said.
[Ah, that’s the problem. Since you are at a higher level, the benefits you get are limited. When both of you are at the same level, you’ll receive an equal amount of benefits] she said.
…
Xiang Yu stared at Li Yao. Dammit, if that was the case, with his system, he would always level up faster than her. Did that mean he’d always be a bottom?
Dammit, Master, this disciple has also failed. I can only leave it up to the next generation, he sighed.
I just hope they don’t turn out like me and Master, Xiang Yu thought, shedding a tear.
“Why is it taking so long to upgrade?” Li Yao asked. She needed to play around with her husband some more.
[It’s stopped for now. You have to endure a tribulation to advance the physique] the Empress explained.
“Wait, tribulation for physiques?” Xiang Yu asked in surprise.
[That’s right. To level up physiques, one must undergo tribulation] she said. [I see, you probably didn’t undergo your tribulation because of your unique constitution. That’s really lucky] the Empress said. She then turned her attention to Li Yao. [Though for someone like Li Yao, that would be very unlucky] she said.
“I can’t hold it in anymore. I’m going to…” Li Yao began.
Xiang Yu panicked. “No! Stop! Don’t summon lightning here! Not my sect!” he screamed as he rushed towards her. He grabbed her with one hand, then threw a punch, shattering a hole through space. He then threw Li Yao into the hole, and the Empress was instantly sucked in too.
“Phew,” Xiang Yu thought as he calmed down. If a tribulation had happened here, his sect would have been ruined. Luckily, he was quick.
As he thought of this, it finally hit him that he had just thrown his wife into a spatial rift without hesitation. Even if he had calculated where it would open and was sure she would be fine, this was still…
He steadied his breath, then slowly, his body transformed back to male.
“Looks like it does indeed mess with my emotions slightly,” he thought as he sat in a meditative posture, waiting for the reset.
A few thousand miles away, Li Yao and the Empress appeared. As soon as they appeared, lightning clouds began to gather above them.
[Get ready. Let’s use this chance to breakthrough from peak Soul Formation to peak Soul and Body Integration] she said. [With the energy you have saved up plus the one from the Heavenly Dao body upgrade, you might even be able to attempt tribulation] the Empress said. Though she admitted that was probably a stretch, it should at least be enough to level up the Nine Heavens Thunder Body by at least two heavens though.
