The thought exploded in her mind like a thunderclap—absurd, yet seemingly the only explanation!
Just then, the bedroom door was gently pushed open.
Lin Tian walked in carrying a glass of warm water.
He had changed into a clean set of casual clothes, and his short black hair was slightly damp, obviously from washing up.
The morning light outlined his perfect profile, and his deep eyes looked over calmly, with a knowing look that seemed to know all too well that she had woken up and the turmoil in her heart.
"Awake? Have some water." Lin Tian handed her a glass of water, his voice gentle, revealing no unusual emotion.
Gwen looked at the handsome face so close to hers, and the intoxicating aura from last night seemed to linger in her nostrils again, making her heart race again after it had just calmed down, and her body involuntarily felt slightly hot.
She hurriedly took the water glass, her fingertips accidentally touching Lin Tian's fingers, and she recoiled as if she had been electrocuted.
"Thank you...thank you..." The voice was barely audible.
Looking at her embarrassed yet slightly bewildered expression, Lin Tian smiled faintly and asked, "How are you feeling? Is there anything wrong with your body?"
These seemingly caring words, however, sounded like a different kind of implication to Gwen.
"No...no!" Gwen quickly shook her head, instinctively trying to deny the strangeness in her body. "I...I'm fine!"
To prove she was alright, she threw off the covers and tried to get out of bed to get dressed, but in her haste, she slipped and fell!
"Ah!" Gwen exclaimed, about to fall.
At this critical moment, her body made an inexplicable reaction!
With an incredible twist of her waist, her toes lightly touched the ground, and she steadied herself as lightly as a feather!
Even... where my toes touched the ground, there seemed to be a slight, abnormal groan coming from the floor?
Gwen herself was stunned!
This is...my body?!
She could clearly feel the coordination and power that her muscles had unleashed in that instant, as well as her extraordinary sense of balance and reaction speed!
Lin Tian stood aside, taking in everything, a knowing smile flashing in his eyes.
As expected, the nourishing effects of the Yin-Yang Harmony Scripture were surprisingly good on mortals in this world.
It not only strengthened her foundation and nourished her vitality, but it even directly stimulated some kind of... special gene hidden in her body?
Gwen stood frozen in place, looking down at her hands and feet, then suddenly looked up at Lin Tian, her eyes filled with shock, confusion, and a hint of... indescribable longing.
Without a doubt, all these changes are related to this mysterious man in front of us!
It's related to his... ultimate pleasure!
That feeling... that feeling that made her feel like she was floating on air, that caused a strange change in her body...
Eat the marrow and know the taste!
The word popped uncontrollably into Gwen's mind.
The shame remained, but a stronger desire for that ultimate experience and the boost to power began to grow wildly in her heart like vines.
She looked at Lin Tian as if he were a huge treasure, a source that could make her stronger and experience unparalleled pleasure.
"I...I should go." Gwen hurriedly grabbed the clothes scattered on the ground, not daring to look Lin Tian in the eye again. She quickly dressed and rushed out of Lin Tian's apartment as if she were escaping.
Only after running back to her room, closing the door, and leaning against the cold door panel did she gasp for breath, her heart still pounding.
Everything that happened last night—the changes in my body, Lin Tian's mysterious gaze…it all felt like a dream.
But the slightly tingling sensation of power emanating from her fingertips, and the lingering, chilling aftertaste deep within her body, clearly told her—
All of this is true.
And...she wanted more!
Ge Zun blushed, gently biting her lower lip, her eyes filled with struggle and... a hint of uncontrollable anticipation.
She couldn't help but look towards the direction next door. The man there was like a whirlpool, radiating a fatal attraction.
And she seems to have...become deeply involved.
Chapter 4: Another Fall, Power Soars
Life seemed to have returned to normal, but only Gwen knew that a raging storm was brewing inside her.
By day, she's an ordinary high school girl who studies hard, plays in a band, and occasionally bickers with her father.
But whenever the night is deep and quiet, or when she is alone, the ecstatic experience of the previous night, and the unfamiliar power surging within her body, are like the whispers of the devil, constantly tempting her.
She tried to ignore it.
She forced herself to go to the gym, trying to explain the changes in her body with normal exercise. However, when she easily lifted weights far beyond her limits, and when she ran on the treadmill with speed and endurance far exceeding that of ordinary people, the "gift" from Lin Tian became clearer and more alluring.
Power! Unprecedented power!
And that kind of... ultimate joy!
The two feelings intertwined, like the most potent poison, making her unable to resist.
Just one day later, Gwen found herself unable to endure it any longer.
The power within my body seemed to yearn for replenishment, and deep within my soul lingered a throbbing desire for that ultimate experience.
She found herself involuntarily looking towards the window next door and straining her ears to catch any subtle sounds coming from there.
Lin Tian was like a magnet, and she was a piece of iron filings that was firmly attracted to him.
After struggling all day, as night fell again and her father, Chief George Stacy, returned home late once more from work, Gwen Stacy, the usually proud and slightly fastidious blonde girl, once again found herself standing in front of Lin Tian's door, almost as if possessed.
This time, she didn't even think of any excuse.
"Dong dong dong."
A knock sounded on the door, tinged with a barely perceptible tremor and... urgency.
The door opened quickly.
Lin Tian remained calm and composed, as if he had expected her to come.
He was dressed in comfortable loungewear, and his dark eyes looked particularly deep in the dim hallway light, as if they could see through all her pretense and struggles.
"Is something the matter, Gwen?" he asked knowingly, his voice carrying a hint of lazy magnetism.
Gwen's cheeks flushed instantly. She opened her mouth, but found that any excuse seemed so weak and powerless at this moment.
In the end, she simply lowered her head and whispered, "I...I...can I go in and sit for a while longer?"
Lin Tian smiled slightly and stepped aside.
As Gwen stepped into the room for the second time, the familiar yet deadly alluring scent enveloped her once again.
This time, she no longer felt the panic and helplessness of the first time; instead, she felt a surge of... eager longing.
She could even feel every cell in her body cheering and anticipating the coming "sweet rain".
Lin Tian closed the door without saying anything more.
He walked up to Gwen, reached out, and gently lifted her chin, forcing her to look up and into his eyes.
Those eyes seemed to hold the stars and the sea, possessing a magical power that could see into the soul.
"Want to?" he asked softly, his voice carrying a hint of seduction.
Gwen's body trembled slightly, her cheeks were so red they looked like they could bleed, but deep in her eyes, an undisguised flame burned.
She didn't answer, but her reaction said it all.
She once again offered herself up.
This time, Lin Tian did not hesitate at all.
If the first time was a tender blossoming and an unexpected surprise, then the second time was a decadent indulgence and a fusion of power.
Warm and pure energy, like a gentle stream, flowed continuously into her limbs and bones.
Wherever this energy passed, her muscles, bones, and even nerves were being strengthened and transformed at an incredible speed.
She could even "hear" the sounds of her own cells cheering!
Lin Tian calmly felt the purer and more abundant Yin energy returning from Gwen's body.
This power perfectly merged with his Hehuan True Qi, propelling his cultivation to steadily improve.
He could sense that Gwen's body was like a rough, unpolished gem, and each "dual cultivation" session could unleash even more potential.
Her vision was once again filled with intense white light, and her mind went blank.
She could clearly feel that the power within her body was several times stronger than before!
She even had the illusion that she could punch through a wall if she wanted to!
And... there seem to be some other changes as well...
Her fingers unconsciously gripped the bed sheet beneath her, a strange sticky sensation emanating from her fingertips, as if... it could be firmly attached to it?
Gwen suddenly opened her eyes, looked at her fingertips, then at Lin Tian, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Lin Tian simply gave her a meaningful smile, reached out, and gently stroked her sweat-dampened hair: "You felt it?"
Gwen didn't speak, but instinctively pressed her body even closer to the man who gave her strength and pleasure.
Let them sink into despair.

Chapter 5: First Test of Skill, Street Horror
Since the second "dual cultivation", Gwen felt that her world was completely different.
Strength, speed, endurance, reaction time... all have seen terrifying improvements that are visible to the naked eye.
Walking down the street, she could clearly hear car horns several blocks away; see tiny pieces of paper fluttering in the wind from high-rise buildings; and even smell the lingering perfume scents on different people in the air.
Her five senses were magnified infinitely, and the whole world became clearer and... slower than ever before in her eyes.
What surprised and terrified her most was that the strange sticky feeling was becoming more and more obvious.
Once, while reaching for a book on the top shelf at home, she slipped and nearly fell. In a moment of panic, she instinctively pressed her hand against the wall—and then she was horrified to discover that her hand was stuck to the wall as if it were glued on!
It took a lot of effort to "pull" it off, and the feeling of being stuck still lingered in my palm.
"What...what exactly is going on?" Gwen looked at her palm and muttered to herself.
She began frantically searching for related information online. "Superpowers," "mutants," "genetic mutations"... these terms, which used to only appear in comics and movies, might now be closely related to her life.
And the source of all this points to the mysterious Eastern man next door—Lin Tian.
She went to Lin Tian and subtly inquired about his whereabouts.
But Lin Tian always smiled without saying anything, or brushed her off with ambiguous words, simply telling her: "This is a gift you deserve, so feel it and take control of it."
A gift? A gift obtained in exchange for one's body?
Gwen felt ashamed, yet she couldn't deny that she was becoming increasingly fascinated by the sense of control that this power brought, and... Lin Tian himself.
That afternoon, Gwen walked home with her schoolbag on her back, feeling somewhat conflicted.
She had just declined her bandmates' invitation to rehearse, her mind still replaying the feeling of her "dual cultivation" with Lin Tian last night. Each exchange of energy made her feel one step closer to becoming a "superman."
Just as she turned a corner, a piercing scream suddenly rang out!
"Robbery! Someone's stealing my bag!"
Gwen looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in a hoodie running away with a woman's handbag in the distance, while the woman who was robbed fell to the ground in a panic.
Some passersby gasped in surprise, while others instinctively stepped back; for a moment, no one stepped forward to stop them.
In the past, Gwen might have felt fear and helplessness, just like most people.
but now……
