Gao Xian remembered clearly that his Human Dao Spiritual Light had originally been at 335 points. He had used two points to test something, leaving him with 333.

  How had it gone back up to 335?

  Where had these two extra points come from? He had only seen three people today.

  Gao Xian couldn't help but think of his sister-in-w's complex expression as she left. Could it be reted to her?

  Unfortunately, there was no way to verify it.

  These extra points of Human Dao Spiritual Light wouldn't make much difference anyway, and he didn't have time to investigate further.

  Gao Xian tapped his finger repeatedly, maxing out the Dragon-Taming Lightning Hand at 300 points, instantly upgrading it from Proficient to Expert level.

  Dragon-Taming Lightning Hand: When performing simple, fixed movements, hand speed is exceptionally fast. Concealed within the hand is the power of lightning, capable of delivering intense, exquisite sensations to anyone it touches. (1/400 Expert)

  Gao Xian noticed the change in the description. The original text had specified "certain simple, fixed movements," but now, at Expert level, the word "certain" had been removed.

  This meant that his hand speed would be exceptionally fast for any simple, fixed movement.

  Right, he had noticed something earlier. During the upgrade, his fingers had moved with unnatural speed, tapping 113 times in just two or three seconds.

  What exactly constitutes this intense, wonderful sensation?

  The woman in the mirror, who looked strikingly like Sister Lan, moved. She extended a slender, jade-like hand and performed a few simple gestures: curling her fingers, clenching her fist, and waving her hand.

  The woman's hand movements grew increasingly rapid, while her bright, beautiful face became even more alluring. Her eyes, shifting between shyness and joy, left Gao Xian utterly captivated. He longed to leap into the mirror and join her.

  In a daze, Gao Xian felt a tingling numbness in his hands, as if he were being electrocuted. They swelled and grew hot.

  He stared at his hands, watching electric currents flicker beneath his skin. The muscles, bones, and tendons within his palms seemed to constantly shift and adjust.

  Suddenly, Gao Xian had a moment of crity. The Dragon-Taming Lightning Hand was altering the state of his hands, allowing them to move faster and with greater stability.

  He also realized that while the Dragon-Taming Lightning Hand's movements were simple, they covered most scenarios where hands were used.

  Gao Xian's spirits soared. This skill wasn't completely useless after all.

  If he upgraded it further, perhaps he could remove more restrictions, allowing his lightning-fast hands to adapt to a wider range of environments.

  The only problem was his ck of Human Dao Spiritual Light.

  The Great Puppet Divine Art could be upgraded, but what good would that do?

  Gao Xian decided not to rush into anything. He needed to understand the skill better first.

  Gao Xian grabbed the Little Bck Cat by the scruff of its neck and lifted the tiny creature up.

  Gao Xian's movement was so swift that the cat didn't even have time to react.

  The Little Bck Cat felt uncomfortable. It meowed twice, shook its head vigorously, swished its tail, and puffed up its fur, struggling to escape Gao Xian's grasp.

  Gao Xian used his Dragon-Taming Lightning Hand to stroke the cat's fur.

  "Mew... mew..."

  The Little Bck Cat, which had been struggling with all its might, immediately softened. It obediently y beside Gao Xian, its eyes half-closed in contentment.

  Its sharp cries transformed into soft, milky meows...

  Gao Xian suddenly realized: the Dragon-Taming Lightning Hand was the ultimate cat-petting technique!

  After pondering for most of the day, Gao Xian had a rough understanding of the Dragon-Taming Lightning Hand's function.

  It could be used to pet cats or people. If he opened a massage parlor with this skill, he'd be guaranteed a thriving business and a fortune every day!

  But it wouldn't solve his current problem.

  Suppressing his impatience, Gao Xian took out the Mirror of Love and Lust and focused on the Great Puppet Divine Art.

  The Great Puppet Divine Art was already at the Expert level, only 80 points away from the next rank.

  Since he had no use for the Human Dao Spiritual Light anyway, he might as well give it a try.

  Gao Xian steeled himself and poured eighty points of Human Dao Spiritual Light into the Great Puppet Divine Art.

  Great Puppet Divine Art: The heart perceives the center, the spirit descends outward. High and low connect, two energies merge to form a Spirit. Its wondrous applications are endless. (1/5000 Master)

  Gao Xian was stunned by the data reflected in the mirror. How had the upgrade to Master level caused the required points to skyrocket tenfold?

  What special qualities did this Master-level Great Puppet Divine Art possess?

  He couldn't help but gnce at Sister Lan within the Mirror of Love and Lust. She seemed to sense his gaze, lowering her head shyly before turning gracefully and swaying deeper into the mirror.

  A single red candle fme flickered into existence within the mirror's depths, illuminating a curtain of jade beads.

  Behind the curtain y a Brocade Couch, its bed covered in golden mandarin duck embroidery on brocade. A jade pillow y askew.

  Sister Lan parted the beads, slipped off her embroidered shoes, and y nguidly on the Brocade Couch with her back to Gao Xian.

  Her reclining form revealed the unduting curves of her neck, shoulders, waist, hips, and legs, showcasing the exquisite beauty of a woman's soft and alluring figure.

  Her silk skirt had fallen open, revealing half of a slender calf and a snow-white jade foot.

  The swaying jade bead curtain reflected a thousand points of shimmering light, adding an ethereal, dreamlike quality to Sister Lan's form beyond.

  Gao Xian's mouth went dry as he gazed at Sister Lan's alluring and beautiful figure. This... was far more captivating than anything those Japanese teachers could offer.

  Gao Xian suddenly realized he was standing before the pearl curtain.

  Sister Lan, behind the curtain, was practically within reach.

  "This... this... isn't right..." Gao Xian's heart was torn by conflicting desires. He desperately wanted to step forward and spend a joyous night with her.

  But he knew Sister Lan wasn't real. She was merely a Spirit he had conjured, a phantom existing within the Mirror of Love and Lust.

  This felt utterly shameful...

  As Gao Xian wrestled with his conscience, Sister Lan on the Brocade Couch slowly turned to face him, her lips curving into a gentle smile. Her eyes, swirling with charm and tenderness, met his gaze.

  Seeing Gao Xian remain motionless, Sister Lan pyfully beckoned him with a finger.

  That simple gesture unleashed a tidal wave of desire, shattering Gao Xian's st vestiges of reason.

  Afterward, Gao Xian sat on the bed, still reeling from his experience. It felt as though he had truly entered the Mirror of Love and Lust, where he and Sister Lan had engaged in passionate lovemaking within an exquisite and opulent boudoir.

  It was both real and illusory, impossible to fully grasp.

  The fusion of their Two Qi, spiritual communion, and emotional resonance had transported them to a Supreme Mystical Realm. Within his body, vital essence flowed into his Spirit, then returned to his Qi, creating an endless cycle.

  Gao Xian was certain that this practice not only caused no harm but actually purified his vital essence and strengthened his divine soul.

  This secret technique was truly extraordinary. Through this form of communion, their Spirits, Qi, and vital essence would grow increasingly potent, and Sister Lan, the puppet spirit, would become ever more powerful.

  A master-level Sister Lan could even enter his brow chakra to help him condense Dharma Talismans.

  For cultivators, the first crucial step in cultivation and spellcasting was visualizing the Dharma Talisman in their spiritual world. Only a fully formed Dharma Talisman could gather and circute the Primordial Qi of Heaven and Earth.

  Having inherited some of the original owner's memories, Gao Xian knew that Dharma Talismans were the key to cultivation and spellcasting. With Sister Lan's help in condensing them, he could save considerable time and effort in visualization—a tremendous advantage!

  However, this secret technique still carried a certain connotation, slightly conflicting with the moral education he had received. As a result, he felt a twinge of embarrassment.

  But Sister Lan kept smiling at him and beckoning him with her finger. Who could resist that?
