Some monks began to subconsciously retreat, their footsteps sounding hurriedly on the suspension bridge;
Some people gripped the ritual implements so tightly that their knuckles turned white from the pressure.
Someone prays in a low voice, his lips moving quickly;
Some people looked around blankly, as if they were travelers stuck in place due to a sudden snowstorm.
The ghost cultivators who had just been happy for a few days were now once again filled with fear that had existed for a long time.
They thought they could escape this cage of fate, only to find that darkness struck again as soon as the cage door was opened a little.
David ignored the whispers and looks full of fear.
He stepped forward, and chaotic gray power gushed from his body, silently devouring, assimilating, and refining the yin energy that approached him.
That layer of gray light acted like an invisible barrier, intercepting all yin energy that tried to approach.
He raised both hands, channeling the Mind Concentration Technique into his body at full power. The chaotic fire in his dantian surged upwards, and the gray flame burned fiercely on his chest.
He started to absorb that yin energy.
The black yin energy rushed into David’s body as if it had found its place, flowing into his dantian along his meridians.
The sensation was like thousands of fine needles piercing the meridians simultaneously, causing a cold and stinging pain, but after entering the dantian, the sensation was burned fiercely by the flames of chaos, turning into a warm current that flowed into the limbs and bones.
The violence and corruption in the yin energy was stripped away and refined layer by layer under the burning flames of chaos, like iron ore tempered by a blazing fire, where the impurities were burned away, leaving behind pure refined iron.
The influx of Yin energy made the Chaos Flames blaze even more violently, and a deep dark luster faintly appeared among the gray flames, like pure iron after being cooled, becoming increasingly dense.
David could feel his meridians being cleansed, widened, and tempered by yin energy.
Each meridian is like a dry river bed that is suddenly hit by a flood, widening and deepening the river bed to accommodate more water flow.
Each absorption made the chaotic power within his body thicker and purer.
Although his cultivation level remained at the fourth rank of the Golden Immortal realm, his foundation was polished by the Yin energy accumulated over ten thousand years, making him as solid as a rock.
The sensation was like repeatedly folding and forging a piece of pig iron. Each fold removes dirt, and each forging increases density. Although the shape remained unchanged, the inside completely changed.
The overflowing yin energy seemed to have found an outlet, no longer spreading outwards, but flowing continuously towards David.
A gray vortex formed around him, sucking in all the black yin energy, like a bottomless black hole devouring everything.
Yin energy condensed, surged, and swirled on the surface of his body, before being decomposed, refined, and absorbed by the power of chaos.
The fear among the crowd slowly turned into shock.
“He absorbed that yin energy?!”
“Such dense Yin Energy, how could he possibly swallow it all in one go? Isn’t he afraid of exploding?”
“When that yin energy touched him, it didn’t erode his soul instead, it was as if it was devouring him”
“What kind of technique is this?”
Some people started to step forward, trying to see more clearly.
The crowd that had previously dispersed gathered again, and all eyes fell on David.
Black yin energy churned around him, like countless black snakes coiling around his body, but it quietly melted, refined, and absorbed when it came into contact with the gray light.
The old man from the underworld also emerged from the cave at some time, standing on the stone steps. His hunched figure, bathed in dark red light, resembled an ancient stone statue.
His deep blue eyes were fixed on David, watching the surging Yin energy being peeled, purified, and absorbed layer by layer by David’s chaotic power, like turbid water being filtered into a clear stream.
His lips twitched slightly, his fingers clenched gently within his sleeves, and the pent-up worry in his eyes finally subsided a little at this moment.
“He really did it”
The old man’s voice was very gentle, only Ghost Seven who was standing beside him could hear him, “I have lived for tens of thousands of years, and this is the first time I have seen someone use Yin energy as a resource for cultivation.”
