Under Mu Jinyu's careful manipulation, the soul spheres of the two women were soon brought into his Sea of Consciousness.
"Buzz!"
As soon as the two pristine white soul spheres entered the Sea of Consciousness, the mystical little tree rooted inside Mu Jinyu's Sea of Consciousness suddenly trembled slightly, and its emerald-green leaves began to sway.
Mu Jinyu was startled, thinking that the mystical little tree was repelling the invasion of other soul bodies and instinctively wanted to obliterate the souls of the two women.
Just as Mu Jinyu was about to forcibly suppress the actions of the mystical little tree, he saw two faint cyan beams of light emanate from the tree's branches and leaves, descending onto Wen Rou and Jian Ruyan's soul spheres.
"This..."
Mu Jinyu watched this scene with doubt, unable to stop it in time.
He felt a bit regretful, having intended to cleanse the grime from the souls of the two women within his Sea of Consciousness. If any accidents occurred, the mystical little tree might help him stabilize the disintegrating soul spheres, preventing the women from having their souls scattered. But unexpectedly, before he could take action, the tree had already moved on its own as soon as their soul spheres entered the Sea of Consciousness.
Who knows what tricks the little tree played on them!
If anything were to happen to them, even at the risk of his own life, he would definitely remove this uncontrollable entity from the Sea of Consciousness!
As Mu Jinyu was filled with anger and annoyance, he saw the two pristine white soul spheres become brighter under the infiltration of the faint cyan beams of light.
"Puff, puff..."
Following a few rejection sounds, threads of ghostly black Qi began to seep out from the two pristine white luminous spheres, followed by red, ice-blue, and emerald-green Qi...
"Hmm?!"
Upon seeing this, Mu Jinyu frowned deeply, exclaiming in surprise, "Why does it seem like it's cleansing the grime on their souls?"
To completely restore Wen Rou and Jian Ruyan to their bodies without damaging their cultivation talents, there were three steps in total.
The first step naturally was to find a way to stir their souls, which had solidified within their new bodies after the soul seizing, and then let their souls exit the body once more.
The second step was to cleanse and remove the grime on their souls caused by the soul seizing, which had solidified and been eroded within the seizing bodies.
Otherwise, if Wen Rou's soul were forcibly extracted from Jian Ruyan's body and directly sent back to her own body without any action, the grime on Wen Rou's soul, which had inevitably been assimilated during its stay in Jian Ruyan's body, would cause her cultivation talent to remain absent even after returning to her own body.
The third step was to use the Soul-Hiding Flower to prevent their souls from being contaminated by Hong Chen Qi once the foreign grime on their souls was removed, and then send them back into their bodies.
With these three steps completed, they would completely restore their bodies, and even if their cultivation talents were still somewhat depleted, they would be much stronger than they are now.
The first two steps were quite dangerous, so after extracting the souls of the two women from their respective seizing bodies, Mu Jinyu planned to leverage the stability of the mystical little tree within his Sea of Consciousness to help them remove the grime from the soul assimilation. If any unexpected events happened during the process, the mystical little tree might step in to stabilize the crumbling soul spheres.
But unexpectedly, as soon as their soul spheres entered his Sea of Consciousness, the mystical little tree spontaneously acted up.
Initially, Mu Jinyu thought the little tree had already regarded his Sea of Consciousness as its own territory and wouldn't allow other soul bodies to invade, so it was harming the two women's soul spheres.
It infuriated him.
But as the peculiar Qi streams escaped from the women's soul spheres, Mu Jinyu began to feel like this mystical little tree was helping him, assisting in cleansing the grime from the two women's souls that didn't belong to them...
"Puff, puff..."
As Mu Jinyu watched with a mix of doubt and disbelief, the two soul spheres continued to expel a variety of colored Qi, and eventually, the two pristine white luminous spheres expanded from the size of a fist to that of a soccer ball, becoming even brighter and more resplendent.
"It really is like that... Their souls have not only been cleansed of grime but also nourished; now their souls have reached a level that only Fanxu Realm cultivators possess..."
Mu Jinyu glanced quizzically at the mystical little tree rooted at the center of the Sea of Consciousness, and asked, "What exactly are you? Could it be that you have consciousness? Why did you enter my Sea of Consciousness?"
The little tree didn't respond at all, quietly rooting itself in his Sea of Consciousness, absorbing the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy, occasionally reciprocating it back.
Mu Jinyu furrowed his brows, then shook his head, no longer delving into the origins of the little tree.
"In that case, these Spiritual Medicines are no longer needed."
Mu Jinyu looked at the few Spiritual Medicines floating in the Sea of Consciousness and smiled wryly.
These Spiritual Medicines were the last two kinds he obtained from his master, with the effect of cleansing the soul and strengthening it.
His original plan was to use these two Spiritual Medicines to cleanse the grime attached to the souls of the two women, then combined with the prior effect of the Nether River Flower, it would be as if they drank Meng Po Soup, preventing their souls from bearing each other's Soul Thought imprints.
But doing so carried significant risk. One was that their souls might not withstand the medicinal power and collapse, and another was that the effect of the two Spiritual Medicines might counteract with the Nether River Flower, erasing the women's memories.
But now, with the help of the mystical little tree, the second step's effect was better than he imagined.
Mu Jinyu decided to abandon the use of these two Spiritual Medicines to avoid any mishaps for the two women.
"Rise..."
Mu Jinyu softly called out, then guided the two beams of soul light to leave his Sea of Consciousness with him.
"Buzz!"
As the two beams of soul light exited the Sea of Consciousness, Mu Jinyu summoned the Soul-Hiding Flower to hold their souls within, protecting them from any contamination by Hong Chen Qi before sending them back into their true bodies.
The process was rather tense.
Mu Jinyu feared that, with one careless move, he might send Wen Rou's soul back into Jian Ruyan's body, which would spell disaster. He verified everything multiple times, ensuring accuracy before returning the souls to their respective bodies.
"Phew..."
As the souls of the two women entered their rightful bodies, the Soul-Hiding Flower wilted and withered on its own, turning to ash and scattering with the wind.
The Soul-Hiding Flower's role is to embed souls within it, ensuring their safety from void turbulence for seven days, preventing them from being scattered.
However, once a soul resides within, even if not reaching the seven-day limit, the Soul-Hiding Flower would wilt once the soul departs.
Fortunately, Mu Jinyu preserved the seeds of this Spiritual Medicine, so if needed in the future, he wouldn't spend excessive time searching for it.
"Now, we wait for them to wake up."
Mu Jinyu averted his gaze from the scattered ashes, looking nervously at the two women who had fainted, softly mumbling.
He waited for quite some time.
Jian Ruyan was the first to awaken. Upon waking, she opened her bewildered eyes, and then an expression of excitement and tension surged in her clear eyes as she looked down at her own palm.
Her delicate body trembled, and she abruptly looked up at Mu Jinyu, her eyes filled with disbelief and confusion, saying with grievance, "Little Mu... I..."
