How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

Hongli clenched her fists: "I... eh?"

Hongli suddenly paused, subconsciously touching her forehead, feeling inexplicably happy, and also feeling a slight itch on her neck.

"This is, um..."

Hongli's eyes widened suddenly as she realized something: "Oh ho! Black Sun!"

On the bench in the lakeside pavilion, Hei Yang quietly watched the snow falling outside the pavilion. Suddenly, he felt the girl in his arms tremble. He couldn't help but frown and gently lift the blanket.

Hong Li was asleep with her eyes closed, her brows slightly furrowed, and her expression seemed somewhat unhappy.

"Ok?"

Hei Yang looked puzzled, gently placing his hand on his girlfriend's forehead with some concern: "Did you have a nightmare?"

Hei Yang focused intently, gently massaging the area above the girl's eyebrows to promote blood circulation in her brain.

I remember when Xiao Li had nightmares, he would do this. Speaking of which, it was Aunt Yu Ying... well, it was his mother-in-law who taught him.

Thinking about the techniques he had learned, Hei Yang patiently massaged his girlfriend's head, trying to relieve her mental stress.

Before long, Hong Li's brows gradually relaxed as she slept, and her tense body gradually relaxed as well. The corners of her mouth gently lifted, revealing a comfortable and contented expression. Her little head unconsciously moved into Hei Yang's arms, and she gently rubbed her forehead against his palm, as if she had already emerged from the nightmare.

"Hey."

Hei Yang smiled smugly, then suddenly caught a glimpse of light. He tilted his head and saw that the silver necklace Hong Li was wearing had slipped out of her collar and was dangling near her ear. He casually put it back in place.

…………

"Ugh..."

In her dream, Hongli closed her eyes comfortably, unconsciously tiptoed, and swayed her little head from side to side, making the gray surroundings a little clearer.

A warm feeling spread from my forehead, gradually warming my entire body. I wanted to clear my mind, to think of nothing, to not think about anything...

Complete relaxation, even the subconscious manifestation in the dream slows down its thinking, until it completely loses consciousness...

"Ugh, ugh, ah?"

In her dream, Hongli suddenly opened her dazed eyes. The warmth on her forehead disappeared again, and a sense of loss made her involuntarily reach out her arms, wanting to grasp that comfortable and reassuring feeling, but she couldn't.

“Eee…”

Hongli stood there quietly, stunned, for a long time before she came to her senses. She couldn't help but purse her lips, pretending not to care.

"What? It's just Hei Yang touching someone's forehead outside..."

"..."

"Um, wait a minute, who am I trying to fool with my stubbornness? This is my dream..."

Suddenly realizing this, Hongli sighed and said aggrievedly, "What's wrong with me? Why did that stinky Heiyang suddenly move his hand away? It was so comfortable..."

"Oh, right, I fell asleep in Hei Yang's arms, that's intimate contact!"

Hongli realized what was happening and her eyes widened.

"My lovely girlfriend, who is beautiful, kind-hearted, strong, brave, smart, witty, steady, and gentle... is currently lying in Hei Yang's arms!"

So, what if he suddenly becomes aggressive and does something that makes people blush and their hearts race?

Hong Li looked troubled; it seemed that her intimate relationship with Hei Yang had reached a bottleneck.

It's not that we're not intimate enough, but as a couple, shouldn't we be even closer?

Next year she will marry Hei Yang and they will officially become husband and wife!

Getting married!

Before that, there should be a natural transition period, right?

Even if we don't do *that* right away, can't we still do *that*, *that* and *that*?

But it seems like she and Hei Yang are stuck together?

It's like a progress bar that loads to 98% and then stops, spinning and spinning, buffering...

She clearly knew they could do that, and Hei Yang also knew they could do that, but whether it was shyness or concern for the other's feelings, they remained silent, neither moving an inch...

This can't go on!

A cutie like Hei Yang was born to be eaten by Sister Hong Li!

Therefore, even if there are no opportunities, we must create them!

She's been so obvious in her hints, she's practically throwing herself at me!

Look! There's a Hongli lying unconscious up ahead; her protein...

Bah! She's completely powerless to resist right now. Even if Hei Yang bullies her, she can only silently endure it and secretly feel... heartbroken!

I'm definitely going to be shy, but... it sounds exciting too!

Unfortunately, in this respect, it is more difficult for childhood sweethearts who have grown up together than for ordinary couples.

Because the two of them were so familiar with each other, so familiar that they had developed a certain degree of immunity to each other...

Surely we can't let her take the initiative, can we?

She's already given it all away for nothing!

As expected, Hei Yang is such a useless guy, damn it!

"Harmful……"

Hongli sighed, "Oh well, let's take it slow. He can't escape now anyway, it's just a matter of time before we subdue him..."

Putting that thought aside for the time being, Hongli looked away with deadpan eyes.

"So, what the heck is this giant sphere that suddenly appeared just now?!"

A huge sphere was quietly suspended in the air, with flashes of light around it from time to time, which gave Hong Li a sense of familiarity.

"Hmm, could it be..."

Hongli frowned, took a dozen steps back, and finally saw the full view of the large sphere. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"Good heavens, isn't this the golden core of the nemesis between me and Hei Yang?!"

As for why Hongli could recognize it as her golden core at a glance, it's because her golden core and Heiyang's are somewhat special.

Or rather, other people's golden cores are golden, but hers is... half vermilion and half black!

Flames blaze fiercely on the vermilion parts, while deep black ripples undulate in the dark.

On the very day Hong Li broke through to the Golden Core stage, the "Golden Core" she and Hei Yang condensed turned into this thing.

With a quick thought, the two clever minds roughly guessed that the vermilion half was influenced by Hong Li, while the black half was Hei Yang's doing.

At first, the two were a little flustered, after all, the actual product was different from what was described in the advertisements in the cultivation world, making them suspect that it was a fake.

But after calming down, they discovered that these small black and red pills not only had the effect of the Golden Elixir, but were also "more powerful than two elixirs."

The red and black pills formed by the two of them seemed to have an effect greater than the sum of their parts.

And this large sphere in front of us, disregarding its size, is exactly the same as that treacherous golden elixir in every other respect!

Eight streams of light surrounded the sphere, and another stream of light ran through the junction of the vermilion and the black parts.

There were a total of nine streams of light, each representing a different supernatural power.

When one cultivates and comprehends, and mobilizes these nine streams of light to merge into the "Golden Core," the cultivation of the Golden Core realm will be completed.

At this moment, the Golden Core stage one, the Supreme Wisdom Divine Power has been integrated into the "Golden Core", which is the stream of light sandwiched in the middle.

The remaining eight supernatural powers are still in a state of detachment. Although each one is very strong, it is difficult for them to create a synergistic effect.

The Golden Core Realm is used to integrate and comprehend one's previous accumulations and foundations. When the time is right, the Golden Core breaks through and the Nascent Soul is formed, becoming a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

"Got it. Before I knew it, I was on the verge of a breakthrough again."

Hongli nodded knowingly and sighed.

"I'm so miserable. I was sleeping soundly in my boyfriend's arms, and then I was dragged here to practice."

But once the feeling is there, a breakthrough is inevitable.

Hong Li composed herself, adjusted her emotions slightly, and looked at the eight streaks of light around her.

Hidden God, Instant Kill, Unwavering, Exile, White Horse, Nirvana, Other Shore, Demonic Heart.

Her understanding and comprehension of these supernatural abilities were rapidly increasing, and Hong Li's aura was becoming more and more powerful, giving people a sense of trepidation.

In external terms, it means...

"Brother Heiyang, hug me, just for a moment!"

Hongli rolled over with her eyes closed, waving her two thin arms and talking in her sleep with a somewhat aggrieved tone.

"We're already a couple, what's wrong with giving me a hug!"

"Okay, okay, I'll hug you several times, not just once."

Hei Yang squinted, coaxed Hong Li's arm like a child, gently moved his legs, pulled his girlfriend into his arms, and slowly patted her back.

"Okay, okay, it's alright now, go to sleep."

"it is good……"
