Purple Pearl parted her alluring purple lips and chuckled, "That's the effect whale glue is supposed to have. One of my team members once brought back a thousand-year-old whale spirit beast. After consuming the whale glue, he fought with his wife for a whole day and night!"
Dongfang Jing's eyes widened, and she also pressed against the other's shoulders, trying to persuade her: "Sister, please calm down, I'm much younger than you!"
Purple Pearl lowered her gaze and licked her lips: "Such extraordinary talent at such a young age, tsk tsk. I'm twenty-one this year. I'm not bragging, but with my figure and looks, you're not at a disadvantage, are you?"
As those purple lips drew closer, Dongfang Jing's thoughts raced.
Suddenly, she asked in surprise, "Xiaobai? Why are you back?"
Upon hearing this, Purple Pearl was stunned for a moment, then immediately let go and stood up.
Look around, where is Xiaobai?
Looking down at the Eastern Mirror again, it had already disappeared.
"Dongfang Jing!!!"
The woman stomped her feet angrily.
Why not just obey your own wishes and enjoy family life?

Inside the cabin, Dongfang Jing locked the door from the inside.
Panting heavily, with bloodshot eyes and a flushed, hot body, he curled up.
The brother and sister lived in one room.
She noticed her brother came in as if he were fleeing, and then he looked very upset.
Dongfang Yao, who had just finished washing up and was about to go to bed, was startled and jumped off the bed: "Brother, what's wrong?"
She reached out and touched her brother's arm, but was immediately startled by the burning heat and withdrew her hand.
"It's so hot! I'm going to find Sister Pearl—" Dongfang Yao turned around and was about to run out.
"No! Don't go!" Dongfang Jing hurriedly stopped him, his voice hoarse. "Don't worry, I'll just rest for a bit."
He staggered onto the bed and pulled the thin blanket over his body.
Dongfang Yao pursed her lips slightly. Since her brother had said so, it shouldn't be a big deal.
The girl knelt anxiously beside the pillow, tucked her loose black hair behind her ear, and gently massaged his head.
"Brother, is there anything you need me to do?" she asked softly. "Anything is fine."
"That's good, thank you Yao'er." Dongfang Jing replied with his eyes closed, enjoying his sister's massage.
"Of course, it's my brother who always took care of me. Now and from now on, it's Yao'er's turn to take care of him."
After massaging for a while, Dongfang Yao's gaze involuntarily shifted upwards, and her pupils widened instantly.
Although she is still young, she already understands quite a lot about certain things.
Then, she wondered if she had seen it wrong.
Wanting to confirm, he stared at the area covered by the thin blanket for a long time, even stopping the massage he was doing.
Dongfang Jing lay in bed, feeling increasingly hot.
It seems I won't be able to sleep peacefully tonight unless I resolve this.
He sighed, sat up, and quickly summoned a mirror: "Yao'er, you go to sleep first, I'm going to meditate."
Without waiting for the girl's response, he immediately slipped into the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors.
Dongfang Yao sat blankly on the bed, secretly comparing it with her hand.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz: "My God."
She wrapped herself completely in the thin blanket and rolled around in the bed.
Inside the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors, the concept of time becomes blurred.
Dongfang Jing let out a long sigh and carefully wiped it clean with a tissue.
After some effort, the burning heat inside me finally subsided a bit.
Although it hasn't completely dissipated, I can finally calm down and meditate.
He circulated his soul power, attempting to neutralize the effects of the medicine within his body.
With the aid of the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors, combined with his own special physique and unwavering will, the pink and tender images in his mind gradually settled, and his mind regained its clarity.
"Holy crap, what on earth is this whale gel?! Its effects are so potent?!"
If it weren't for his strong will, he would definitely have lost control and become irrational.
Dongfang Jingxin pondered to himself, while simultaneously examining his own condition.
Upon this introspection, he immediately and keenly sensed the difference!
My meridians and bones seem to be wider and stronger than before, my muscle fibers are more elastic, and my overall physique has been subtly improved!
Because cultivating "Mirror Body Splitting Soul" requires a thorough understanding of every inch of one's own flesh and blood.
Therefore, Dongfang Jing is extremely sensitive to any changes in the body.
He was convinced that this improvement was not an illusion!
"I haven't done anything special recently."
The boy reminisced about the past and quickly connected it to the whale gelatin he had just taken.
"Could it be that this is really the reason?"
This thing isn't just an aphrodisiac; could it be a true treasure?!
Chapter 59 Dongfang Yao Takes Whale Glue
The true value of whale glue lies in its ability to fundamentally strengthen a Soul Master's physique!
Upon this bold conjecture, Dongfang Jing immediately changed his strategy.
Instead of trying to expel the medicinal power of the whale gelatin from the body, it circulates its soul power to actively guide and absorb the heat that dissipates throughout its limbs and bones.
"really!"
As the medicinal effects were gradually absorbed and integrated into the body, the feeling of increased physical strength became increasingly clear.
Dongfang Jing was deeply shaken!
Unexpectedly, by sheer chance, I discovered the true wonders of whale glue!
Judging from Purple Pearl's previous reaction, she clearly only knew that whale glue had aphrodisiac effects and was completely unaware of its true value in strengthening the body.
"Could it be that no one on this continent knows the true use of whale glue?"
Having thought of this, he no longer hesitated.
He circulated his soul power to the fullest extent, thoroughly absorbing and refining the remaining effects of the whale glue within his body.
After a moment, he carefully assessed his own condition again.
There is no doubt that my physical strength has indeed improved by a significant margin!
The stronger a Soul Master's physical body, the higher the maximum lifespan of Soul Rings they can withstand.
The Eastern Mirror made a rough estimate based on its own changes.
After consuming this piece of whale gelatin, his body's limits were increased by at least a thousand years!
He immediately thought of his younger sister: "If Yao'er could also take it... No way!"
He immediately rejected the idea.
The energy of this whale gel had such a great impact on him, a person with a special constitution.
Even though Dongfang Yao had been trained in the Hall of Ten Thousand Mirrors, she absolutely could not withstand the full power of the medicine.
"Dilution? It's difficult to operate and hard to control. I don't know exactly how to do it, and I'm afraid there will be more side effects."
He pondered for a moment: "Perhaps... we could let her take it in small doses over several sessions?"
With a preliminary plan in mind, he walked out of the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors.
Upon returning to the cabin,
Then they saw Dongfang Yao wrap herself up like a rice dumpling with a thin blanket.
Noticing the commotion, Dongfang Yao also quietly peeked out.
Whether it was from boredom or something else, her face was flushed.
The girl blinked her eyelashes repeatedly and asked softly, "Brother, are you alright?"
"Hmm, what are you doing?"
"Uh, I... I couldn't sleep, so I wrapped myself up and played around! Haha."
Dongfang Jing didn't think much of it; instead, his eyes lit up.
It's good that I can't sleep.
Then get up and start cultivating!
"Yao'er, I've discovered a shocking secret! It might allow you to absorb a thousand-year soul ring!"
"Really?" Dongfang Yao popped out, curious about what it was.
The two left the room and went straight to the second deck.
There, Purple Pearl was drinking alone, brooding over her sorrows.
Hearing the noise, she turned her head and glared at them fiercely.
"Uh," Dongfang Jing said somewhat awkwardly, but business was the most important thing.
So she spoke up: "Sister Pearl, I want to ask you about whale glue."
Upon hearing this, Purple Pearl gritted her teeth, snorted, and ignored him.
Seeing this, Dongfang Yao asked in a low voice, puzzled, "Brother, did something happen between you and sister?"
"Well, something did happen."
