The founder of the Yin-Yang School guides the next sect leader!

Looking at the pale purple energy blade in his hand, Ying Changqing was very satisfied.

The next moment, he flicked his wrist, and the Heavenly Punishment Sword vanished like quicksand, blown by the wind into specks of purple light, disappearing completely.

Ying Changqing was even more eager to see what surprises the other forbidden techniques of the Yin Yang School's Luo Sheng Hall would bring him.

But soon, he noticed something was wrong.

"Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any 'qi' in the qi-refining techniques of this world."

"But why didn't I encounter any difficulties when forging the Heavenly Punishment Sword embryo?"

"Could it be...?"

Ying Changqing suddenly looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

"Could it really be true?"

"Do gods and the legendary black dragon really exist in this world?"

Could it be that Jiang Ziya once severed the path between gods and humans, and the gods here refer to the divine race, not Sang Sang?

Ying Chen confirmed that the God Race did not exist.

If gods exist, there must be legends about them, such as Haotian and Sangsang.

This world has the Tang Kingdom, unparalleled masters like Master Fu, and the Xiling Divine Cult that worships Sang Sang.

But the Protoss left no evidence of their existence.

Even if the gods truly exist, Ying Chen wouldn't be surprised, because this world is already chaotic enough.

Thinking about these things is pointless; he must make himself stronger.

Ying Chen stopped reading other books.

This epiphany took longer because it was interrupted.

It was completely dark outside Luoshengtang.

Ying Chen stood up and patted the head of the protector, Shao Siming.

"Come on, let's have dinner at my place tonight."

Shao Siming looked at Ying Chen, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, but remained indifferent and did not answer.

"Candy has been sent from Xianyang."

Facing the silent Shao Siming, Ying Chen added in a low voice.

Shao Siming's pale purple eyes flickered immediately.

Shao Siming no longer remained still, but obediently followed behind Ying Chen, appearing very well-behaved.

In Ying Chen's room at the Yin Yang School's residence.

When Ying Chen entered the room, Ehuang and Nüying were already waiting for him.

Yan Fei, Jing Ni, and the others were also there, waiting for him to return.

Upon seeing Shao Siming behind Ying Chen, Jing Ni immediately stepped forward and asked, "Young Master, would you like to take a bath first?"

Jingni knew Ying Chen's habits, so she asked that question.

Before Ying Chen could even reply, Yan Fei and the unsteady-walking sisters, Ehuang and Nüying, froze, their faces turning red.

Zhou Zhiruo and Nangong Pu also seemed very nervous.

As maids, bathing their masters was their job.

Ying Chen glanced at Shao Siming, who was unusually quiet beside him and was secretly staring at the candied fruit on the table.

He then smiled and said, "Let's eat first."

"Our Shao Siming protected me all day today. She is still growing and cannot go hungry."

After Ying Chen finished speaking, the women visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

After dinner, Zhou Zhiruo, Nangong Pushe, and Shao Siming left the room.

Only the sisters Ehuang and Nüying, Yanfei, and Jingni remained in the room.

"My lord, I have something to attend to, so I must go now."

After Yanfei finished speaking, she turned to leave.

Her past experiences with Jing Ni made her ashamed, and she dared not look Jing Ni in the eye.

Now, with the addition of the Ehuang and Nüying sisters, she dared not even imagine it.

Yan Fei tried to escape, but Ying Chen immediately caught her.

Jing Ni couldn't refuse because Xiao Yan'er was there, and the sisters Ehuang and Nüying were of one mind, so their strength doubled.

The two women were very weak.

Ying Chen will never let Yan Fei leave.

Before Yan Fei could react, Ying Chen had already embraced her.

The next morning, Ying Chen and Jing Ni had breakfast together.

Yanfei and the sisters Ehuang and Nüying were still sleeping because they hadn't slept well.

Jingni looked at Ying Chen and asked worriedly, "Young Master, what if Yan'er is born and I don't have enough breast milk? What will we do if the baby is hungry?"

Upon hearing this, Ying Chen smiled and said, "I won't fight with my daughter for it then."

Jingni rested her head on Ying Chen's shoulder.

"Young master, that's not what I meant."

"Oh? What does that mean?"

Jingni glanced at Yanfei, who was still sleeping.

Seeing that she was still asleep, Ying Chen whispered in her ear, "If Consort Yan is also pregnant, Yan'er won't have to worry."

Ying Chen chuckled and gently scratched Jing Ni's nose.

You are indeed clever, but does Yanfei know this method?

Jingni raised her face and kissed Ying Chen's lips.

"Yanfei has always wanted to have children, and she won't refuse."

Ying Chen looked at Yan Fei and said, "I hope so."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head again.

Jingni looked at Ying Chen with eyes full of love.

After breakfast, everyone was full.

"If you're hungry, go eat by yourself. I'm going to Rashomon."

"We must finish reading all the books in Luoshengtang before Han Fei sends any news."

"Understood, young master."

Jingni lay weakly on the bed, panting, and answered softly.

Ying Chen saw this, kissed her forehead, and then walked out of the room.

Ying Chen arrived at Luo Sheng Hall again, used his inner strength to open the bronze door, and felt the tight grip of a small hand again from his sleeve.

Ying Chen knew without even thinking that this was Shao Siming from the Yin Yang School.

Ying Chen took Shao Siming's hand and said directly, "Come in together."

"We don't need your protection today."

Even in a state of enlightenment, I can perceive everything in the outside world.

"You can study whatever you want on your own."

Shao Siming nodded after hearing Ying Chen's words.

Then, the two of them went into Rashomon together.

Shao Siming looked curiously at the faintly visible ancient texts.

Ying Chen ignored Shao Siming and went straight to the book to find the Six Soul Curse.

The Six Souls Terror Curse is a forbidden technique of the Yin-Yang School, belonging to one of the "Eight Yin Meridian Curses".

This incantation conflicts with the sealing incantation in the "Eight Yang Meridians Incantations," and can cause the meridians to reverse.

The Six Souls Terror Curse is specifically designed to counter the martial arts of the Mohists, and it is also the only weakness of the Mohists when they fight against the Yin-Yang School.

Ying Chen remembered that in his previous life, the Yin-Yang Master, the Six-Fingered Black Knight, was killed by Yan Fei using the Six Soul Terror Curse.

The fact that the Grand Master of Fate was able to use the forbidden technique Six Souls Terror Curse to directly kill Prince Yan Dan of Yan proves that the Six Souls Terror Curse is extremely deadly against the Mohists.

Although the Six Souls Curse is powerful, it has obvious flaws.

This spell is extremely stimulating and requires a medium to enhance its power.

Direct application is easily detected and prevented; it must be applied directly and maintained for a period of time to take effect.

The spell is difficult to cast, but the consequences of being cursed are severe.

Those afflicted by the curse will experience a burning sensation throughout their body and their skin will be covered in red stripes; there is no way to break the curse.

The Six Souls Curse is more terrifying than the most potent poison.

The effects of poison are limited because many martial arts techniques can provide immunity, such as the Farmer's Heart Sutra and the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

However, there are almost no cultivation techniques that can make one immune to curses.

Ying Chen finished reading the last page of the Six Soul Curse and closed the book.

He sat cross-legged in the center of the platform of Rashomon.

Half an hour later, Ying Chen opened his eyes.

The body vanishes into nothingness, and the soul completely dissipates.

You have mastered the Sixth Soul Terror Curse of the Eight Yin Meridians Curses and comprehended the Heavenly Law: the Soul-Eating Curse!

"The Soul-Eating Curse won't activate immediately; I can control it."

"Once it takes effect, the person under the spell will be tormented to death, as if ants are gnawing at their soul and body, leaving them unable to live or die."

Ying Chen nodded in satisfaction.

The Ten Blessings Soul-Capturing Technique can control strong individuals with unwavering will and deep-seated obsessions, such as Hei Bai Xuan Jian.

The Soul-Eating Curse is equally effective against those with weak wills.

Death is merely a release, but the torment of living a life worse than death is what instills fear and prevents betrayal.

After Ying Chen had fully mastered the Six Soul Terror Curse, he searched through the remaining scriptures.

Soon, he discovered a rare but extremely powerful and bizarre Gu technique—the Corpse God Curse Gu.

This kind of Gu technique left a deep impression on Ying Chen.

Both Gai Nie and Xiao Yao Zi, at their peak, were afflicted by this Gu poison, losing all their internal energy within twelve hours.

This proves that this Gu technique is extremely powerful.

Losing one's internal energy is equivalent to death.

The Corpse God Curse Gu is a type of Gu magic; anyone can use it as long as they have Gu worms.

After Ying Chen learns the technique, he can give the Gu worms to women with weaker abilities, such as Wei Qianqian and Zhou Zhiruo, so that they can carry them for self-defense.

Ying Chen immediately picked up the Corpse God Curse Gu and studied it carefully.

This book on Gu techniques certainly did not disappoint him.

After improvements, the Gu worm can not only steal the target's internal energy, but also paralyze the target's entire body, making them completely unable to move.

The drawback of Gu magic is that Gu worms must be cultivated first, and it cannot be used directly.

Ying Chen stared at the Corpse God Curse Gu and immediately thought of the woman, Tide Demoness.

Although he learned how to raise Gu gu through the secret manual, he didn't have enough time.

Ying Chen remembered that, apart from the Twelve Caves of Later Tang Prefecture, only Bai Yifei, the Blood-Clad Marquis, and Lady Mingzhu, two of the Four Fiends of the Night in Korea, knew how to raise Gu poison.

He sneered, "I promised to help Han Fei eliminate the Four Fiends of Nightfall, but I didn't say I would take their lives."

"Kicking them out of South Korea is enough to eliminate them, isn't it?"

After saying that, Ying Chen no longer hesitated and continued reading.

Since he didn't have a specific goal, he just browsed around randomly.

They soon discovered that the Luosheng Hall of the Yin-Yang School had very few secret manuals, and most of them were classic texts containing the core content of Yin-Yang techniques.

These books were almost all written by the successive leaders and patriarch Zou Yan.

Ying Chen immediately understood that these were the foundations of the Yin-Yang School.

The numerous Yin-Yang techniques employed by the Yin-Yang School today were not all created by Zou Zi alone.

These techniques were created by later disciples after studying the classic texts.

The knowledge found in classical texts forms the basis of Yin-Yang theory.

After gaining a deep understanding and mastering the techniques, one can master various Yin-Yang arts.

Out of curiosity, Ying Chen picked up a copy of "The Great Nine Provinces".

He had previously read "The Great Nine Provinces" at the Illusionary Star Tower, where a copy was also kept.

Since Luo Shengtang also has a copy, what are the differences between the two? With this question in mind, Ying Chen opened the book in his hand.

Instantly, Ying Chen was taken aback.

Countless pale golden runes suddenly flew out from the pages of the book and hovered in front of him.

This book is not an ordinary book, but a set of talismans for Yin-Yang magic.

Therefore, Ying Chen's feelings were completely different from those in "The Great Nine Provinces" in the Illusionary Star Tower.

Ying Chen now understands that this "Great Nine Provinces Chronicle" is the original version written by Zou Zi himself, while the one in the Illusionary Star Tower is a copy made by later generations.

This discovery greatly excited Ying Chen, and he immediately focused on studying the light patterns before him.

"Confucian scholars say that what is called China only occupies one-eighty-first of the whole world."

"China is called the Red Land of the Divine Continent."

"There are nine provinces in the land of China, which are the nine provinces divided by Yu the Great. They should not be confused with the nine provinces outside."

"Outside the Red Land of Divine Land, there are nine other places just like the Red Land of Divine Land, which are called the Nine Provinces."

"These nine provinces are surrounded by the Sea of ​​Bet, and people and animals cannot travel to each other; each province is its own province."

"There are nine such states, and they are surrounded by the Great Ocean; this is the edge of heaven and earth."

Gazing at this vast land of Kyushu, Ying Chen was completely awestruck.

He never expected that the Yin-Yang School would have such profound knowledge.

The "Great Nine Provinces Theory" records Yingzhou.

This is why the Yin-Yang School desperately built mirages; Xu Fu eventually went to Yingzhou, which later became known as the Land of Cherry Blossoms.

Ying Chen gained new insights through reading.

This understanding is completely different from before.

With his exceptional comprehension, he can enter a state of sudden enlightenment at any time.

But this time is different.

He couldn't control the process.

In an instant, a strange feeling suddenly appeared in his consciousness.

He suddenly understood!

Just like that sudden realization he had when he stood atop Mount Li.

As Ying Chen was immersed in enlightenment, the situation inside Luo Sheng Hall suddenly changed.

The Five Elements Theory, the Five Virtues Cycle Theory, the Great Nine Provinces Theory, and the Main Cycle Theory suddenly appeared at Rashomon Hall.

These books open automatically, without anyone having to do anything.

Golden runes swirled and danced around Ying Chen, all merging into his mind.

Shao Siming looked surprised.

She had witnessed Ying Chen's sudden enlightenment, but she had never seen anything like this before.

She was confused, not knowing what had happened or what to do.

Just as she was worrying about Ying Chen, the giant bronze gate of Luo Sheng Hall suddenly opened.

Donghuang Taiyi and Chu Nangong appeared beside Ying Chen.

They were immediately stunned by the countless golden characters surrounding Ying Chen.

"When I saw this scene in the Central Palace of the Celestial God, I didn't quite believe it."

"Now it seems that the ancestral scriptures gave him guidance on their own initiative."

The patriarch has already chosen him.

Even Chu Nan Gong's eyes revealed envy.

"This kind of talent is truly enviable."

Although the founder is no longer here, the scriptures he left behind have taken the initiative to recognize him as their master and have designated him as the next leader of the Yin-Yang School.

Chu Nan Gong felt envious.

For the disciples of the Yin-Yang School, their patriarch Zou Yan is like a deity.

The scriptures left by Zou Yan are invaluable treasures, and every disciple longs for the opportunity to obtain them.

"Was this the patriarch's decision?"

"I obey."

Donghuang Taiyi bowed deeply, facing the golden, radiant scriptures.

Chu Nan Gong stroked his long beard, paced around Ying Chen, and pondered.

He looked at Donghuang Taiyi with a helpless expression.

"Donghuang, when Ying Chen is with the Yin Yang School, don't let me come back."

Chu Nan Gong had a high level of cultivation and mental state, but he was so discouraged by him that he began to doubt his life.

There is no one more talented than him in this world.

After saying that, Chu Nan Gong sighed.

Donghuang Taiyi said with a wry smile, "Compared to him, all the geniuses in the world are like the light of fireflies."

"Master Nan, do you think I'm not envious?"

This epiphany lasted for three days and three nights.

During these three days, all the knowledge and classics of Zou Yan, the founder of the Yin-Yang School, entered Ying Chen's mind.

On the morning of the third day, the sun rose from the east, its golden light shining on Mount Li.

Under the watchful eyes of Donghuang Taiyi and Chu Nangong, Ying Chen slowly opened his eyes.

"Mr. Ying Chen, how are you feeling?"

Ying Chen's lips curled up, revealing a surprised expression as he savored the gains from this sudden enlightenment.

Just then, Donghuang Taiyi was surprised to find that Ying Chen's originally black eyes had turned into yin-yang fish, one black and one white, and were spinning rapidly.

Donghuang Taiyi even felt an unprecedented threat from Ying Chen, as if Ying Chen was already capable of harming him.

Donghuang Taiyi had never felt this way before, after all, the gap in strength between Ying Chen and him was enormous.

When Donghuang Taiyi looked at him again, Ying Chen's eyes had returned to normal.

That sense of oppression completely disappeared.

Donghuang Taiyi was certain that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.

He was very surprised and eager to know what Ying Chen had realized.

"This is an exceptional level of skill, unprecedented!"

Ying Chen clenched his fist.

No one noticed that his palm caused the world to lose its color, and all things were imprisoned by a force.

Ying Chen was drawn to this power and became completely immersed in it.

This sudden enlightenment happened naturally; he did not learn any new techniques.

But Ying Chen was very satisfied.

His cultivation level jumped directly from the early stage of the Land Immortal Realm to the late stage, saving him decades of cultivation time.

Ying Chen possesses a vast primordial power of Yin and Yang.

The golden words were imprinted in his mind, and he could call upon them at any time, but he did not fully understand their true meaning.

These texts represent the core theories of Yin-Yang philosophy, the ultimate truths of the universe summarized by its founder, Zou Zi.

Each golden character contained immense power, making it extremely difficult for Ying Chen to understand.

Therefore, he needs time to digest this knowledge in order to grasp the essence of Yin-Yang theory.
