Chapter 6 - Phase I – Spiritual Cultivation Begins in the Darkness

There's a moment, right before something incredible happens, when the body and brain enter full shutdown mode.

Fight, flight, or faint.

In my case?

All three.

Ms. Seo leaned over me in the dim glow of her bedroom, her hair loose, her tank top slipping further with every heartbeat. Her face was calm — too calm — like she knew exactly what she was doing to my nervous system.

"Relax," she whispered, so close her breath tingled on my neck."Let the tension go."

Tension?

Lady, I was one molecule away from ascending into the spirit realm through sheer horniness.

[SYSTEM INITIATION COMPLETE]

DUAL CULTIVATION PHASE I: "SPIRITUAL TACTILE SYNC"

BEGINNING YIN FLOW—CONTACT LEVEL: SKIN

REWARD: +5 CHI, +1 CHARM, +1 STAMINA (TEMP)

She reached for my hand.

Not dramatically. Not sexually.

Just… gently. Like guiding a student.

Our palms touched.

And I felt everything.

Warmth. A pulse. A slow, gentle pull — like energy sliding under my skin, stirring old instincts I didn't even know existed.

"Good," she said softly. "Your Qi responds quickly."

"M-My Qi?"That was my voice? That squeaky disaster?

"Mm. Most people block theirs. You're… open. Sensitive."

Great. I was a spiritual doormat.

She guided my hand — still holding it — to rest on her thigh.

Bare.Smooth.Warm.

I felt the energy spike instantly. Like plugging into a power outlet made of soft thighs and questionable morality.

[YIN CONTACT LEVEL 2 ACHIEVED]

SYNCHRONIZATION: 28%

PASSIVE BONUS UNLOCKED: "SENSITIVE TOUCH – Chance to Cause Emotional Flutter on Contact"

Her breath hitched.Subtle — but I caught it.

"You're trembling," she said.

"That's because I'm... cultivating responsibly," I whispered.

She chuckled. "Is that what the kids call it now?"

Her other hand came to rest against my chest — light, careful, but charged. The Yin flow thickened between us like invisible silk. My entire torso vibrated like it wanted to molt into a better man.

My heart pounded.

Her gaze softened.

The atmosphere felt sacred.And then…

[SYSTEM INTERRUPTION]

WARNING: YIN OVERFLOW IN PROGRESS

HOST STAMINA LOW. FIRST CULTIVATION RISK: "EARLY RELEASE SPIRITUAL DISCHARGE"

RECOMMENDATION: FOCUS. BREATHE. DON'T EMBARRASS YOURSELF.

Thanks, System. Truly comforting.

Ms. Seo's fingertips traced a slow path up my shoulder.

Then paused.

"Do you feel that?"

"The intense spiritual pressure?" I gasped.

"The boner," she said plainly.

I nearly flatlined.

[SYSTEM: EMBARRASSMENT DETECTED – -2 DIGNITY]

BUT… YIN COMPATIBILITY: 92% – NEARLY PERFECT

"You're really responsive," she whispered. "Your aura is... leaking a little."

"Sorry. It's a rare condition called being 18 and surrounded by MILFs."

She laughed again — low, deep, and dangerously approving.

"We'll stop here for tonight," she said, pulling back gently.

I froze.

"W-What? I mean—yes, of course. That's fine. Respectful boundaries. Hooray."

She leaned down one last time, her voice like silk dipped in wine.

"But if your control improves, I might let you cultivate a little deeper next time."

She kissed my forehead.

And then rolled over.

Lights out.

I lay there, frozen, brain melting, system blinking like it just had a seizure.

[DUAL CULTIVATION PHASE I: COMPLETE]

EXP GAINED: 40

NEW SKILL UNLOCKED: "TOUCH OF TANTALIZING QI"

NEXT GOAL: PHASE II – YIN KISS MERGE (Locked Until Heart Sync ≥ 50%)

So this was it.Not just smut.But an actual cultivation path built on seduction, restraint, and... thighs.

I was in deep now.Deeper than her robe neckline.Deeper than my dignity could handle.

But I had a mission.

And she just gave me permission to go further.
