Dual Cultivation With My Yandere Disciples

Although Chen Xuan had previously cursed the System and claimed he wouldn’t fall for its tricks, he was, in truth, rather excited.

Even compared to when he received ordinary rewards, such a method of reveal piqued his curiosity the most.

However, the moment his gaze landed on the chest, and a stream of information flooded his mind, his expression turned strange.

’Treasure Chests are divided into multiple grades: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum...’

’The higher the grade, the greater the chance of obtaining a valuable reward.’

Chen Xuan fell silent.

The excitement he had been feeling instantly diminished. His earlier suspicions had been correct.

The System was indeed trying to turn him into a gambler.

He couldn’t help but snort coldly.

’Does the System really take me for a fool?’ he thought disdainfully.

’There’s even a rarity system...’

’System, you underestimate me. How could I possibly be tempted by something so shallow?’ he sneered as an aura of righteousness erupted from his body.

Then...

He obediently opened the chest.

A bronze radiance burst from within.

The treasure chest seemed to contain an entire sun.

The instant it opened, dazzling light flooded Chen Xuan’s vision, nearly blinding him.

Moments later, when the glow faded away and the imaginary music celebratory in his head vanished, Chen Xuan saw the item resting inside the chest.

It was a single droplet of blue water. It shimmered with a mesmerizing brilliance under the sunlight.

Without hesitation, Chen Xuan activated the Heavenly Insight Eye.

Immediately, its description appeared before him.

...

[Primordial Ocean Water—A Heavenly Water said to have existed before the birth of the Nine Origins Seas. It possesses immense weight and boundless vitality, making it suitable for both offense and recovery.]

[Reminder: This droplet has already been altered and may be refined directly.]

...

Primordial Ocean Water.

The name was completely unfamiliar to him. The same was true for the term "Heavenly Water".

However, with his intelligence and the given information, it didn’t take long for Chen Xuan to grasp its meaning.

’Heavenly Flames are special flames born from heaven and earth, or nurtured through certain supreme techniques. The Nirvana Phoenix Flames and Underworld Flames are examples of such flames.’

’Is the Heavenly Water something similar?’ he pondered.

His eyes brightened.

If his guess was correct, then this reward was far from ordinary.

At the very least, it would grant him another powerful trump card, enriching his combat methods.

More importantly, in a Domain dominated by endless oceans like the Nine Origins Seas, its effect would likely be even greater.

With that thought, Chen Xuan didn’t hesitate.

Being in an unfamiliar land, he had no reason to refrain from improving his strength.

Stretching his hand, he gently touched the droplet and used his divine sense to refine it.

Just as the System’s description had stated, the refinement process was astonishingly smooth.

The Primordial Ocean Water offered no resistance whatsoever.

Within moments, he successfully branded it with his Spiritual Mark. A connection formed between them.

Following a swoosh, the Primordial Ocean Water transformed into a streak of blue light and merged into his body.

At the same time, the treasure chest dissolved into countless specks of light before disappearing completely.

It was as if the previous scene had been an illusion.

Yet, Chen Xuan knew very well that the Heavenly Water had not vanished at all.

His consciousness sank into his Dantian, only to find the droplet quietly suspended in a corner.

It absorbed Spiritual Energy on its own, slowly growing stronger.

At the same time, waves of vitality spread from it and coursed through his body.

His meridians, flesh, and even his Dantian felt nourished, constantly expanding and contracting.

A satisfied smile appeared on Chen Xuan’s face. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Feeling that his body had gotten noticeably lighter, he knew that the System had not exaggerated its healing properties.

As for its offensive capabilities... There was only one way to find out.

Lifting his head, Chen Xuan looked toward a nearby hill.

It stood only a few hundred feet tall, hardly an impressive landmark in the cultivation world, where everything was of colossal size.

With a casual flick of his finger, a faint blue glow gathered before him. Then, the Primordial Ocean Water shot forward.

Compared to the hill, the droplet was truly insignificant, seemingly a speck of dust before a mountain.

Yet the moment it struck, an astonishing scene unfolded.

The hill did not explode. Instead, it began collapsing inward.

The earth itself groaned. Cracks spread in every direction as though an unimaginably heavy object had descended upon it.

Within moments, the entire hill was crushed flat.

When the dust settled, only a massive crater remained in its place. It looked as though a meteor had fallen from the heavens, erasing the hill in a single motion.

With another thought, Chen Xuan recalled the droplet.

The Primordial Ocean Water drifted back into his palm.

Looking down, he found it difficult to believe that this droplet that felt as light as a feather to him weighed as much as a mountain for everyone else.

’A single droplet already possesses such terrifying power. If an unsuspecting Nascent Soul cultivator were struck by it, they would suffer heavily.’

’Whether it is used to suppress or directly as an attack, the effects of the Primordial Ocean Water are extraordinary.’

And this was only the beginning.

Through their connection, Chen Xuan had already learned one of the Heavenly Water’s secrets.

This lone droplet could reproduce itself.

As long as it absorbed sufficient Spiritual Energy, it could continuously generate more Primordial Ocean Water.

There was no apparent limit.

In theory, given enough time and resources, it could expand until it became an entire ocean.

The image of wielding a boundless sea of Primordial Ocean Water to crush onto his opponents immediately surfaced in Chen Xuan’s mind.

However, he quickly dismissed the thought.

That level of power was far beyond his current reach.

If he truly possessed enough resources to nurture the Heavenly Water to such a degree, he would likely already stand at the pinnacle of the mortal world.

How could something like that be accomplished easily?

Shaking his head, Chen Xuan looked at the Primordial Ocean Water and prepared to conduct a few more experiments.

Yet before he could act, his expression shifted.

With a thought, the Primordial Ocean Water returned to his Dantian, while he turned toward a nearby patch of empty air.

"Fellow Daoist," he spoke up, "Since you’ve already arrived, why continue hiding?"
