The Yin Body: How to Resolve It!

Lu Yuan took the jade slip but didn't look at it much.

He stretched out his finger, and a wisp of crimson flame rose from his fingertip.

As soon as the flames appeared, the temperature in the entire cave rose sharply, and the air became distorted.

The flames were of an extremely pure color, containing a sacred, noble, and domineering aura that seemed capable of burning everything.

Nirvana Fire.

Gu Qingxue stared at the crimson flame, her mind reeling.

She could sense that the quality of this flame far surpassed any flame she had ever seen, even more terrifying than the sect's most powerful flame in Burning Flame Valley.

Lu Yuan did not explain, but calmly touched the jade slip of the "Mysterious Ice Technique" with the Nirvana True Fire.

The jade slip turned to dust the moment it came into contact with the flames. And from within the dust, a sheet of golden foil, as thin as a cicada's wing yet exuding an immortal aura, slowly emerged.

On the gold foil, lines of ancient, profound characters flowed slowly, as if they possessed a life of their own.

"This...this is..." Gu Qingxue felt the vast Daoist aura emanating from the gold foil, and her breath caught in her throat.

"A top-grade Heavenly Rank cultivation technique, the Taiyin Su Nu Jing."

Lu Yuan took the gold foil into his hand, looked at Gu Qingxue, and his eyes became solemn. "Qingxue, I ask you, since you began cultivating, have you ever felt a chill from the bone marrow that erodes your meridians and causes you unbearable pain on every full moon night or when your cultivation progresses?"

Upon hearing this, a look of astonishment appeared on Gu Qingxue's usually cold and aloof face.

She paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Indeed...that is indeed the case. I always thought that there was something wrong with the sect's cultivation technique that caused the cold energy to accumulate. I have never mentioned this to anyone."

"That's not a problem with the cultivation technique," Lu Yuan said slowly. "It's because you possess a special physique that appears only once in ten thousand years—the Taiyin Physique."

"The Yin Body," Gu Qingxue murmured to herself. This term was both unfamiliar and distant to her.

"The body of Taiyin is the body of extreme Yin. The coldness in your body is the unconscious dissipation of the original power of Taiyin."

Without special cultivation techniques to guide you, this power will not only be useless to you, but will also continuously erode your life force as your cultivation level increases, eventually turning you into an ice sculpture.

Lu Yuan's words made Gu Qingxue's face turn slightly pale. She recalled the pain she had endured over the years and finally understood the root cause.

"Then... is there a way to resolve this?" she asked.

"The solution is quite simple." Lu Yuan handed over the gold foil in his hand.

"By studying this 'Taiyin Su Nu Jing' and using it as a medium, you can completely activate the Taiyin essence within your body and make it your own."

At that time, you will not only be free from the torment of the cold air corroding your body, but your cultivation will also advance by leaps and bounds.

As he spoke, he flipped his hand and took out a piece of Xuanbing Jade Marrow that was milky white and exuded an extremely cold aura.

It is a thousand-year-old mysterious ice jade marrow.

Looking at the cultivation technique and the treasure before her, and then at Lu Yuan's face that had regained its radiance, Gu Qingxue had no more doubts in her heart.

She knew that everything the ancestor was doing for her today was paving a path to heaven for her.

"Disciple thanks the Ancestor for his life-saving grace." She bowed deeply.

"Go, I will protect you." Lu Yuan nodded.

Without further hesitation, Gu Qingxue accepted the gold foil and the Xuanbing Jade Marrow, and sat down cross-legged on the other side of the cave.

She immersed her consciousness into the gold foil, and the profound scriptures transformed into a torrent of information that flooded into her mind.

She began to try to guide the circulation of spiritual energy within her body according to the methods of the "Taiyin Su Nu Jing".

With the pure, cold energy emanating from the millennium-old Xuanbing Jade Marrow as a guide, her transformation process was indeed incredibly smooth at the very beginning.

The old cultivation techniques and magical power were quickly transformed, and new Yin energy flowed slowly through her meridians.

However, just as this process was halfway through, a sudden change occurred.

As the Yin energy within her body accumulated, her Yin energy, which had been dormant for decades, suddenly erupted.

An indescribable, terrifying chill swept out from her body.

In an instant, a thick layer of ice formed on the stone walls of the entire cave.

The spiritual energy in the air was frozen into ice crystals, which fell down in a soft rustling sound.

Behind Gu Qingxue, a huge, round moon phantom, radiating a cold, clear light, even appeared.

The phenomenon was astonishing.

But Gu Qingxue, who was at the center, was enduring unimaginable pain.

The burst of cold air was dozens of times more severe than any pain she had ever endured before.

Her eyebrows and eyelashes quickly became covered in frost.

Her skin began to take on an eerie bluish hue. Her life force was fading at an alarming rate.

His whole being seemed to be turning into a lifeless ice sculpture.

Lu Yuan frowned.

He immediately took action, channeling his powerful Nascent Soul cultivation into Gu Qingxue's body in an attempt to help her suppress the rampaging Yin energy.

However, as soon as his magic entered, it was frozen and dissolved by that extremely yin and cold power, and had no effect at all.

The situation seems to have taken an unexpected turn.

Lu Yuan thought to himself, "The system is unreliable."

The information it provided only mentioned the method of awakening, but did not point out that the process would be so dangerous, even life-threatening.

Just as he was racking his brains for a solution, midnight quietly arrived.

[Ding, daily intelligence update.]

The system notification sounded at that moment.

Three new pieces of intelligence appeared before Lu Yuan's eyes.

[Green Intelligence: When the Yin Body awakens, it will cause cold air to enter the body. If there is no Yang energy to balance it, the awakener will have a very low chance of survival.]

Solution: We need to find a cultivator with abundant Qi and blood to guide the Yin energy back to the Dantian through the method of dual cultivation.

The best option: If one cultivates with a Pure Yang Daoist, not only will they achieve perfect awakening, but both will also receive tremendous benefits.

[White Intelligence: Grand Elder Jiang Wuyai is preparing to contact the Myriad Beasts True Monarch of Beast King Valley through a secret method to discuss offering the sect's protective array diagram, thus launching a coordinated attack from within and without to overthrow the Qingyun Sect.]

[White Intelligence: Shen Miaoyin, a true disciple of the sect, is actually a core disciple of the Hehuan Sect, one of the six major sects of the demonic path. She has infiltrated the Qingyun Sect with the intention of stealing the sect's Heaven-Rank cultivation technique, the Yimu Evergreen Technique.]

Lu Yuan's gaze swept quickly over the three intelligence reports, and his eyes instantly turned cold.

Jiang Wuya, Shen Miaoyin.

well.

He will deal with these corrupt elements in the sect one by one later.

He snorted coldly, not in a hurry to deal with the two people. His gaze returned to the first green intelligence report.

Lu Yuan instantly understood that this opportunity should have belonged to Xiao Fan, the chosen one of destiny.

In the original storyline, Xiao Fan helped Gu Qingxue awaken her Taiyin Body, and then, at her most dangerous moment, he naturally engaged in dual cultivation with her, ultimately winning her heart.

Well thought out.

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, glanced at Gu Qingxue whose breath was already extremely weak, and then had no more hesitation.
