Chapter 934 Breaking Through to the Yang Realm, Preparing to Take Action
Ye Kang seized every opportunity to re-enter the Ink Jade Realm.
Having learned from his first experience, he remained calm this time and directly said, "System, clear my comprehension and comprehend the Supreme Heaven-Reaching Technique of Taiqing."
【Ding】
[Congratulations, host, for successfully comprehending the Supreme Heaven-Reaching Technique by consuming 6000000 points of Enlightenment.]
As the system sounded, countless insights flooded into Ye Kang's mind. He was like a wise man who had cultivated for countless years, effortlessly touching the edge of the Yang Chu realm.
After accumulating all his cultivation and reaching its peak, he quickly rediscovered his Six Qi and connected the star representing the initial Yang Qi with the Spring Equinox Qi.
The spring equinox energy represents revival and is extremely mild, making it ideal for refining. Ye Kang didn't need to exert any effort at all; the spring equinox energy was automatically refined by his cultivation technique and combined with the primordial yang energy.
At this moment, Ye Kang felt an unprecedented sense of comfort, as if every cell in his body had undergone a process of rejuvenation.
This is the characteristic of the spring equinox energy; its powerful regenerative ability allows Ye Kang to truly achieve rebirth from a drop of blood, effortlessly.
Not only that, the power of the spring equinox permeated every corner of his body, and with each revival, his bones and meridians were greatly enhanced.
The blood and qi are evaporated and replaced in rounds, and the new blood produced is far stronger than before.
The spring equinox energy was clearly helping Ye Kang temper his body, and it was different from the previous tempering methods.
This was a subtle and gradual tempering process. Although his physical strength was increasing rapidly, Ye Kang felt no discomfort whatsoever; on the contrary, he felt increasingly comfortable.
A green aura surrounded him, making him feel no pain whatsoever.
This process lasted for several hours before Ye Kang finally finished absorbing the power.
This also signifies a successful breakthrough; the Yang Chu realm has been achieved!
With a loud boom, Ye Kang's primordial spirit suddenly strengthened, and the range of his divine sense expanded by a full two times.
A pair of yin and yang energies rise up, forming a complete yin-yang cycle, and true qi is constantly formed in this cycle.
This is the domineering nature of a true master: as long as the Yin and Yang energies are perfected, true energy is inexhaustible.
Although there was only one pair, it was clearly the biggest boost for Ye Kang, who consumed a lot of true energy.
The blessings bestowed by heaven and earth afterward were mostly bestowed upon the primordial spirit, making Ye Kang's primordial spirit increasingly stronger.
Another aspect is the understanding of the Dao. The further one progresses in the Returning to Truth Realm, the deeper one's understanding of the Dao becomes.
Ye Kang absorbed the system's insights, which naturally included this point.
He tentatively extended his right hand, and three faint lines of true meaning appeared before his eyes.
Like the true meaning of Brahma, this is the initial manifestation of the true meaning of the three paths he can currently access.
The traces of the Way of the Gun, the traces of the Way of Speed, and the true meaning of revival that I have just come into contact with.
With the addition of the true meaning of Brahma, Ye Kang has already established connections with the four Dao traces.
This is undoubtedly the dream of all those who return to the true realm, because the earlier one comes into contact with it, the greater the chance of successfully merging with the Dao by transforming one's body into a trace of the Dao.
At the same time, the more powerful the Dao trace divine ability formed by activating true intent becomes.
Ye Kang let out a long breath and revealed a satisfied expression.
Now that our combat power has soared, even if that red-robed hermit comes, we will have the strength to fight him.
And that wasn't all. Ye Kang summoned the system again. When he broke through to the True Nature realm, the system not only rewarded him with comprehension, but also gave him an opportunity to evolve his supernatural power.
It wasn't used back then because we were dealing with the two Guizhen sect members of the Dragon Chart Sect, so now is the perfect time.
He opened his supernatural abilities panel.
The Two Poisonous Winds have already evolved once, and the other supernatural abilities are still sufficient.
Ye Kang thought for a moment and then focused his gaze on his first demonic supernatural power.
A snake shedding its immortal garment.
This supernatural power has saved him from many dire situations. Without it in the early stages, he would have died countless times.
After arriving in Kyushu, Ye Kang almost never used it.
The reason is simple: as his cultivation level increased, the side effects of using the snake molt also became greater. Even with Ye Kang's Dao heart, he didn't want to try that kind of eternal darkness again.
However, it cannot be denied that the combined power of the snake molt and the Annihilation Immortal Ring is still his most powerful weapon.
Ye Kang no longer hesitated and said directly, "System, evolve the snake molt."
【Ding】
[Opportunity to Evolve Your Dormitory Using Supernatural Powers]
[Congratulations, host, on successfully completing the evolution of the Divine Serpent]
[Snake Sheath: Absorbing rare and precious materials, it condenses into a snake slough immortal garment. When the host encounters fatal damage, the snake slough immortal garment is automatically consumed, allowing the host to die once and offset fatal damage without any aftereffects.]
"It's done!"
Ye Kang was overjoyed; he had made the right bet!
After the snake molts and upgrades, it no longer suffers from those unbearable aftereffects and should be able to instantly replace the victim.
The second change is that the source of spiritual energy required to condense the immortal robe has changed from precious plants to rare and precious natural materials.
This is essentially a fair trade. After all, rare and precious materials are much rarer than precious plants, and the spiritual energy they provide is naturally of a higher quality. It is reasonable that the substitution effect would be better.
"Now, even if a demon saint in the late stage of returning to the true realm comes to cause trouble, they don't necessarily have to run away."
In the late stage of Returning to Truth, one becomes a top-tier expert with two pairs of perfected Six Qi, reaching the Yin Extinction realm.
Only after acquiring the Serpent's Shedding Immortal Robe did Ye Kang dare to speak in front of such a powerful figure.
He took a deep breath and looked through the system panel from beginning to end.
Although it was flashy, those martial arts techniques used by those with lower cultivation levels were no longer useful at all.
For example, the Six Void Sky-Walking Steps—Ye Kang can now run faster than this martial art just by sneezing.
There's no point in keeping it anymore; it's better to convert it into strength.
He said, "System, open the Furnace of All Laws. I want to reshape my martial arts."
The Furnace of Myriad Laws has a powerful function that can help Ye Kang remove martial arts techniques that are no longer up to par and transform them into enlightenment to be returned to him.
Of course, even more is skimmed off in the middle.
Ye Kang didn't care and directly selected the three martial arts techniques.
Nine Heaven-Shattering Techniques, A Shuttle of Time, Six Void Steps to Heaven.
Actually, there was another technique, the Azure Sea Slash, that was no longer needed, but Ye Kang wanted to keep it so that he could use it to find the Yin Saint Demon Lord in the future.
If he doesn't find him, he will lose one of the six qi, and the path to Dao will be meaningless.
【Ding】
[The host will permanently lose three martial arts skills; you can choose one of two rewards.]
[Reward 1: 3000000 Comprehension]
[Reward 2: Integrate the lost martial arts into the Supreme Heavenly Art of Clarity, permanently increasing the strength and upper limit of the technique, but only slightly.]
Upon hearing this, Ye Kang's expression froze.
That's interesting. It can even increase the strength of a cultivation technique?
The Supreme Clarity Heaven-Reaching Skill integrates the Supreme Clarity Heart Sutra, which is already a top-tier skill in the world. If it is enhanced again, even by just a little bit, it would be a huge gain no matter how you look at it, right?
After all, even a small amount of the cultivation technique will have a significant impact on one's own body.
This isn't a multiple-choice question; it's a mandatory one.
"Choose reward 2".
【Ding】
[The Furnace of Myriad Laws Notification: The host has permanently lost three martial arts techniques.]
[Congratulations, host, on successfully enhancing the spirituality of the Supreme Purity Heaven-Reaching Technique]
In an instant, Ye Kang lost his comprehension of those three martial arts techniques, and instead felt his aura surge.
He immediately began to circulate his internal energy, completing a small cycle of Qi circulation.
A moment later, he excitedly opened his eyes.
Without a doubt, this slight improvement in his cultivation technique increased his strength and directly stabilized his cultivation level—it was incredibly fast.
This is just the initial change. Don't forget, the upper limit of the technique has also increased slightly, and it will only get stronger in the future.
This deal was the right one!
Ye Kang looked at his system panel again.

……
Ye Kang unconsciously revealed a smile; without realizing it, the control panel had become so luxurious.
"It's a pity that the Spring Equinox Qi has also been refined. Where can we find the next first-class Qi? And where can we find that Yin Saint Demon Lord?"
Ye Kang sighed, then put away the system and flew behind Ke Yuanzhou.
"Thank you for your guidance, sir. I have not failed you."
Ke Yuanzhou shook his head: "Your talent is too strong, ten times stronger than mine back then. I couldn't help you much."
"Mr. Ke, you flatter me. Without your guidance, how could I possibly understand the knowledge of the Returning to Truth Realm? There is just one thing that I need Mr. Ke to think of a way to resolve."
"Are you referring to the Yin Saint Demon Lord?"
Ke Yuanzhou seemed to have the ability to read people's minds, and immediately guessed what Ye Kang wanted to say.
Ye Kang nodded helplessly.
Ke Yuanzhou was silent for a moment, then said, "Back then, I wasn't qualified to meet the Demon Lord. He also didn't have a good relationship with the other members of the Holy Sect, so he was always away. If he had been there back then, the Holy Sect might not have been destroyed."
"That lord is so powerful?"
Ke Yuanzhou nodded firmly: "He is not only powerful, but also a genius of all time. He has mastered the Yellow Spring Dao Mark and transcended life and death. He is already the King of the Underworld. Therefore, the most likely place for him to go is the Underworld."
"Where is that?"
"I don't know either. The Netherworld also has an entrance, but nobody knows where it is."
"I understand, thank you for your explanation, Mr. Ke."
Ye Kang bowed deeply, at least he now had a goal.
Finding the Netherworld gives you a high probability of finding the Yin Saint Demon Lord.
He and Xia Ningyan could be considered his half-successors, right? Although he had forcibly attached himself to the title, Xia Ningyan had genuinely learned a lot, which was what he relied on when talking to the Demon Lord.
Ye Kang put his mind at ease and stopped thinking about it.
It's too early to think about these things now. We should wait until the five elements are fully balanced before considering this matter.
Ye Kang left the Moyu Realm and reappeared on the high mountains of Dai County.
Two lieutenants and Liu Zilong stood guard around them.
Although the demons in Daixian County have been cleared out, they also know Ye Kang's thoughts. Daixian County is just a preliminary battle; the real troublesome ones are the four counties behind it.
The three wild gods there are their true enemies.
Ye Kang's decision to stay meant he was determined to fight to the end, so how could the others not be moved?
Therefore, as soon as Liu Zilong saw Ye Kang emerge from the grotto-heaven treasure, he said, "General Ye, I have already sent men to seal off the entire Dai County and planted countless spies to ensure that no demon can enter silently. The general also sent word that... wait! General Ye, your aura is here!"
As Liu Zilong was speaking, he suddenly froze.
He had a feeling that Ye Kang had gotten stronger again...
Ye Kang smiled and said, "Thank you, General Liu. What did the Commander-in-Chief say?"
"He said to be careful of the Red-Clothed Hermit. This demon is extremely ferocious and vengeful. He will definitely not let this go. As for the other two wild gods, he told you not to worry about them."
Lochlin actually said something like that; it seems he was provoked by his own actions.
Ye Kang knew that the reason why General Luo had not made a move was because there were too many demon saints. If they joined forces, he would definitely not be able to defeat them alone, and countless civilians would be lost. That was why he could only keep backing down.
Ye Kang's appearance gave him hope, an opportunity to sweep away the wild gods on the ground.
The premise is that Ye Kang can block the red-robed hermit.
Ye Kang understood perfectly.
He nodded and said, "I'll trouble General Liu to lead these people. My subordinates and officers are all under your command. Please calm the people's emotions and eliminate any who have escaped."
Liu Zilong was taken aback: "Isn't it already finished? I also heard that the villagers in Daixian County want to build a temple for you."
Ye Kang shook his head: "No, I'm not talking about Dai County, I'm talking about the four southern counties."
"what!"
The four southern counties, which are the areas occupied by the Red-Clothed Hermit and the two mid-stage Demon Saints.
These four places are adjacent to Yanzhou and border the sea, and are also the areas most severely polluted by the wild gods.
Upon hearing that Ye Kang intended to take action against these four locations, Liu Zilong instinctively wanted to warn him that it was too risky.
But seeing Ye Kang's confident eyes, he hesitated again.
I used to think Ye Kang couldn't do it, but what happened?
He not only did it, but he did it without any pressure.
How could someone like that have the right to question me? Perhaps only the General has the right to ask such questions.
He nodded silently, while his lieutenants simultaneously cupped their hands and shouted, "Yes, sir!"
Everyone's eyes were filled with excitement.
The conquest of four counties is an unparalleled achievement, and even receiving only a small share of the spoils would be an immense opportunity!
