Chapter 302 The Demon Lord of the Mortal Realm! Dividing Yin and Yang, Clear and Turbid.

The Jiangnan region is often shrouded in mist and rain.

A beautiful woman lazily pushed open the window, glanced at the courtyard, and saw the tall, upright young man breathing in the morning sun. She felt the air after the rain was so fresh, and even her mood improved.

"go."

"Prepare breakfast for the young master."

The Jade-Faced Lady stretched languidly, revealing her alluring and voluptuous figure, reminiscent of the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty. She had already entered the Innate Realm, circulating her true energy even while eating and sleeping, whether at 100% or 120% efficiency. She didn't need to deliberately meditate or cultivate, as it would be difficult for her to advance any further.

If she wants to break through to a higher realm, she must further condense her innate true energy, refine it with the laws of heaven and earth at the Dao realm, making it extremely pure, and then condense the true energy into true essence.

This step has undoubtedly tripped up countless heroes and geniuses of the martial arts world.

"Yes, ma'am."

The beautiful young woman serving beside her withdrew upon hearing this. She had also just woken up and resembled a courtesan who had washed away all artifice, possessing both purity and a touch of worldly allure.

"Why is the energy of heaven and earth so fresh?"

The Jade-Faced Lady seemed to sense something. She made a spell with her fingers, and a glint of light flashed in her eyes. All the evil energy in the four directions disappeared completely, like rivers flowing into the sea, as the young man in the courtyard exhaled and inhaled, just like a whale sucking in water.

hiss!
The young master has almost absorbed all the evil energy in this small square space.

Is he alright?

Since ancient times.

The martial arts' killing aura is one of the most difficult techniques to cultivate.

In this world, there are only a few main categories of malevolent energy, which are ethereal and elusive and cannot be traced. The only types of malevolent energy that mortals can come into contact with for cultivation are three kinds.

The first type is natural evil energy, which is formed innately and has nothing to do with biological combat. It usually originates from special geographical or environmental conditions.

The second type is acquired malevolent energy, which is accumulated due to the large-scale killing of living beings or battlefield ruins, and has strong negative energy.

The third type is karmic evil energy, which is relatively rare. It is caused by special circumstances and carries karmic force, so it is generally not easily encountered.

In the ordinary martial arts world, most people who cultivate evil energy have something to do with feng shui.

For example, if you find a burial site, a place with very bad feng shui, or some unclean place, the evil energy will naturally be more dispersed. Even a very inauspicious mortuary can be enough for an ordinary martial arts practitioner to cultivate some evil energy.

After all, how much evil energy can they absorb? If they absorb even a little too much, problems will arise.

These martial arts practitioners, after practicing for a while, become the Black Wind Duo, which is the level of Mei Chaofeng. Because of the evil energy entering their bodies, they eventually become neither human nor ghost.

If the evil energy cannot be suppressed, something bad will happen.

There is a phenomenon in military strategists called "camp clamor." If the malevolent energy cannot be suppressed, it is similar to soldiers caught in a camp clamor.

Normally, people in the martial arts world would never touch the Blood Fiend of the military.

Because this kind of evil energy is too fierce.

There's not much to say about military strategists cultivating malevolent energy. If they kill too much and can't control it, they become demons on earth. There's a saying, "A merciful general cannot command an army." Military strategists don't have that much emotion, and after getting used to killing, their temperament and will are extraordinary, and they won't be easily corrupted by malevolent energy.

However, there are still side effects. People who come back from the battlefield always have some problems, or in modern terms, post-war syndrome.

Bloodlust, brutality, and mental anxiety, among other traits.

The scenes of fighting with cold weapons are more bloody and terrifying, but people with strong will and beliefs can overcome them. Even in modern times, not everyone who comes from the battlefield suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder.

If you know why you're fighting, even if you crawl out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, you won't have so many side effects.

But if it can't be suppressed.

This was the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, a time that produced countless freaks, murderous demons, cannibalistic monsters, and so on. Military strategists cultivated their martial arts within the army, nurturing and refining their inner energy in peacetime, so that the outbreak of war would be their opportunity to transform that energy into true power.

Those military masters will grow stronger with each battle. After several wars, nourished by the killing energy, they will be no less powerful than those who have cultivated for more than ten years in the martial arts world.

The boy was inhaling the malevolent energy of heaven and earth.

Lu Shanjun is born with a tiger-like aura, which he produces and consumes himself, while the boy's aura is as gentle as a quail. Although the surrounding area is not a place of evil spirits, if there is any place within a few miles with bad feng shui and some evil energy gathers, he will absorb it all cleanly.

That's why the Jade-Faced Lady felt the air become fresh and clean, even though he had devoured all the turbid energy.

Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the world has been in turmoil.

Countless people have been killed and eaten; there are mass graves and mounds of bones everywhere. The Jade-Faced Goddess had long been accustomed to the omnipresent turbid and malevolent energy. Suddenly finding herself completely devoured, coupled with her somewhat demonic abilities, she immediately felt a strange sensation.

Even the true energy within her body became lighter, as the turbid energy was swallowed up, leaving only pure energy around the boy.

"Master, are you okay?"

Her expression was quite solemn. She dared not disturb the boy who was exhaling evil energy from all directions. When he opened his eyes, she knelt down beside him and carefully offered him a cup of fragrant tea.

The boy opened his eyes, his bloodlust coalescing into double pupils.

He exhaled a long breath, took the tea and drank it all in one gulp, then calmly asked, "What could be the matter?"

After a night of breathing exercises, he felt refreshed and invigorated.

Their true energy had become more refined.

The Jade-Faced Lady observed his eyes and, seeing that the bloodthirsty aura was gradually fading and he had not lost his mind, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Just now, I saw you exhaling all kinds of evil energy, so I was worried."

"Is the method you're practicing, young master, the one used by Lord Lushan?"

The young man nodded.

After a moment of contemplation, the Jade-Faced Lady hesitated and said, "Lord Lushan is a tiger in human form, born with the aura of a tiger, but condensing that aura is extremely dangerous. Young Master, it would be best to be cautious."

Those who cannot suppress the evil energy may even become corpses after death.

The young man smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry."

"I have my own way."

There's nothing that can't be suppressed by evil energy; for him, suppressing evil energy is as simple as eating and drinking.

Actually, he didn't really understand what evil energy was.

For him, the malevolent energy was more like a kind of spiritual energy from heaven and earth that he could absorb, a special kind of energy. Normally, when he meditated and practiced breathing exercises to refine his essence into qi, the efficiency was limited, but inhaling a mouthful of malevolent energy was different. It was at least equivalent to consuming and refining essence in half a day.

Lu Shanjun's cultivation method involves absorbing energy rapidly, while the young man's cultivation method involves swallowing everything whole.

He didn't understand why other people were so afraid of evil energy!
Isn't this just a kind of spiritual energy from heaven and earth?

One sip and you're hooked.

Upon hearing this, the Jade-Faced Lady could only suppress her worries. The young man's breathing exercises throughout the night made the small courtyard as fresh as a secluded valley, even giving her the illusion that she was in a blessed land.

The others were completely unaware, only feeling that their internal energy was circulating exceptionally smoothly today; only she could sense something strange.

"Young Master's demonic arts are truly amazing!"

"It can actually separate yin and yang, purity and turbidity!"

The Jade-Faced Lady was utterly impressed. She had encountered many extraordinary people, but she had never seen anyone who could separate the pure from the impure.

Even the Demon Lord of the Mortal Realm is probably no better than this, right?

Since breaking through to the Innate Realm, the Jade-Faced Lady's strength had not improved for a long time. However, today, the true energy in her body circulated particularly smoothly, as if it were free from any worldly impurities, which made her want to cultivate properly.

However, after only half a day, when the young man finished his training, stretched his muscles and bones, and practiced the Tiger Fiend Fist, the lightness she had felt earlier disappeared again.

It all seemed like an illusion.

"This humble monk is simply a genius!"

"He actually managed to condense a wisp of golden energy from the Lung Temple in just one night of meditation!"

Monk Bujie is in an extremely good mood today.

Among his many fellow disciples, he was always criticized for his low comprehension, so he only practiced external martial arts. The Gluttonous Gluttony Technique was extremely difficult to cultivate, but unexpectedly, he made progress in just one night. It seems that as his merits increased, his wisdom also increased.

The meditative state he entered last night was profound and mysterious. Monk Bujie felt his energy channels were completely unobstructed, and he had no worries about going astray.

Buddhist practices sometimes involve encountering inner demons, but he hadn't experienced any mental disturbances for a while.

His inner demons were suppressed by his innate wisdom.

Ok.

This must be because my wisdom has increased again!
The monk Bujie's cultivation had made great progress, and today, seeing that femme fatale, he was in a much better mood. He even gave the Jade-Faced Lady a rare smile, no longer wearing the deathly expression of a Buddhist monk.

Today he will teach the young man the methods of cultivating the Vajra Finger and Vajra Palm.

What a fine prospective Dharma protector Vajra!

Be careful not to go astray. What kind of martial arts does the Jade-Faced Lady teach? They're full of sinister energy.

Don't think he doesn't know; his eyes are as sharp as a ruler.

The demoness obtained a copy of the "Secret Manual of Aphrodisiacs," which she secretly tucked into her sleeve. Last night, she sat by the window studying it for half the night, clearly thinking that once she had mastered it, she would one day use the young man's essence to replenish her own.

He had to keep a close eye on her; he absolutely couldn't let this vixen ruin the young man's cultivation.

The primordial yang fire blazes.

A prodigy.

As long as his cultivation isn't ruined by that demoness, it's possible for him to join my Buddhist sect in the future and achieve a golden body in this world.

The only person in Buddhism who attained a golden body was Bodhidharma.

This boy's martial arts talent is no less than that of Bodhidharma!
The young man wasn't picky at all. As long as his true energy didn't clash with his own, he would learn from either the Jade-Faced Lady or the Unrestrained Monk. What he wanted to pursue was breaking through the void and eventually becoming a grandmaster of martial arts, so he had to be familiar with all kinds of techniques.

In just one morning, he had almost mastered the Vajra Finger and Vajra Palm techniques.

"Young master." "Please have some tea."

A voluptuous and alluring woman stepped forward and respectfully offered tea. She was the charming woman who had been rescued that day. Her surname was Yin and her given name was Meitang. Her original name was unknown. Because she was older, the maids from the lowest social classes all called her Sister Yin. She was also the Jade-Faced Lady's most trusted right-hand woman.

Her name, taken from the image of a begonia in the sun, represents the flamboyant style of prostitutes, implying a seductive allure that captivates the heart. It is one of the stage names used by aspiring courtesans.

She was heavily made up and exuded charm.

There are differences between the North and the South, and each region has its own customs. Only in the Jiangnan region would one use stage names that evoke a sense of detachment and elegance.

She was seriously injured that day, her meridians were damaged.

Although he has recovered somewhat, he cannot easily use his martial arts. If he does not encounter a true qi like the Longevity Formula to heal him in the future, he may suffer from a chronic illness for the rest of his life. He must never fight with others again. Therefore, the Jade-Faced Lady had her serve the young man.

The maid, dressed as a courtesan, was in charge of leading a group of women from the lowest social classes.

The alluring woman knelt respectfully and served him tea. The sight of the full, round moon made the monk Bujie's heart skip a beat, and he kept chanting Amitabha. The sight of so many beautiful women and skeletons sometimes made his mind tremble, and he had to use Buddhist mantras to suppress his bloodlust.

No.

Young people are full of vigor and passion.

This demoness is surrounded by too much yin energy, and peach blossoms are rampant. We must find a way to lure the benefactor away. The group of burly men we saw that day were quite impressive; they also practiced the Vajra Dharma and were full of masculine energy.

To be close to strong men and far from women is the true path of Vajra.

Yin Meitang, of humble origin, was deeply grateful to the Jade-Faced Lady and served the young man with utmost care. She dared not overstep her bounds in the slightest. The Lady was still thirsty, and even just being by the young man's side made her feel refreshed. She dared not linger, so she offered some tea and snacks and then respectfully withdrew.

However, there was still a hint of lingering affection in his expression, and he finally understood why the Empress had fallen for his trick.

The air around the boy smelled wonderful.

A great medicine for humans!

The Empress is absolutely right.

They only hoped that, in recognition of her years of dedication and loyalty, the Empress would one day spare some money to bestow upon them.

They might also have a chance to reach the Innate Realm.

"Why does it feel like I'm not absorbing enough of the malevolent energy?"

"Lu Shanjun is still the best."

Duncan had never encountered a situation where there was a lack of malevolent energy when he traveled with Lu Shanjun before. It was just like when he was cuddling a cat. Lu Shanjun would meditate and cultivate, and he would follow along and breathe in malevolent energy. In any case, there was always enough.

Lu Shanjun is born with the Tiger's Fury, and he travels through desolate mountains and wilderness, preferring places with heavy Yin energy.

I hadn't noticed it before, but now that I think about it, Lu Shanjun is quite knowledgeable about feng shui.

The group departed today.

The monk Bujie went to the Buddhist sect again to recruit people. At this rate, he wouldn't have enough to teach. This big monk was stubborn and believed that the more people practiced Buddhist techniques, the more their hearts would turn to Buddhism. He was determined to recruit people into the Buddhist sect and could not let that demoness surpass him.

Now that his wisdom has increased, he is full of confidence.

Surrounded by a group of beautiful women, the young man, dressed in black, appeared at the end of the long street near the tavern.

at this time.

A sudden change occurred.

A loud shout came from across the street, followed by a sharp sword light piercing through the air.

"Witch!"

"Let go of my friend!"

A valiant swordsman in a blue robe swung his sword, the light of which aimed straight for the Jade-Faced Lady's face. The man's appearance was very familiar; it was Fu Jianhan, whom they had met at the Dragon Pool in Dangshan that day. It was thanks to Fu Jianhan's help that the young man was not easily defeated by the Jade-Faced Lady.

Today, they met again. Fu Jianhan was drinking on the second floor when he noticed others looking around. He immediately spotted a group of alluring women, and the Jade-Faced Lady was among them.

The boy didn't want to draw attention, so he walked towards the back of the crowd, making it look as if he had been kidnapped.

The name of the demoness is legendary.

Fu Jianhan believed that the Jade-Faced Lady was still up to no good and that his friend had been kidnapped by her. Fu Jianhan, fueled by alcohol, became bold and, disregarding the fact that he was no match for the Jade-Faced Lady, wanted to rescue his friend from his predicament.

This man is both bold and loyal. He often says that having wine and friends is enough for him in this life. He is devoted to martial arts and has a wide circle of friends in the northern frontier.

"So it was a little beggar!"

The Jade-Faced Lady revealed a half-smile, a scene that reminded her of her experience at the Dragon Pool of Dang Mountain. Such coincidences were truly unpredictable.

Her martial arts skills had improved recently, and she didn't use any heavy blows. She concentrated her pure inner energy at her fingertips and actually managed to pinch Fu Jianhan's Qingfeng sword between two fingers.

"hiss!"

"How did this demoness's martial arts improve so much?"

Fu Jianhan's expression changed slightly, and his figure spun around, using some kind of peculiar Northern Frontier movement technique. He must have had some fortuitous encounters during this time, because his sword energy and sword light had grown an inch longer. But unfortunately, the Jade-Faced Lady had progressed even faster and had a profound foundation.

clang!
With a flick of her finger, the Jade-Faced Lady actually managed to repel Fu Jianhan's three-foot-long sword.

"not good!"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to save my friend today, and I'll be doomed here myself."

He used to cause Jade-Faced Lady a lot of trouble, making her furious several times. If it weren't for his reputation as a chivalrous man and Jade-Faced Lady's dislike of killing true heroes, he would probably be dead by now.

This guy speaks with a Shaanxi accent, he's sharp-tongued and never backs down, which is really annoying.

Several times, the Jade-Faced Lady wanted to teach him a lesson, but unexpectedly, he was also quite lucky and managed to escape each time.

"stop!"

Upon hearing this, the Jade-Faced Lady's Xuan Yin Finger instantly dissipated its true energy. If that finger had struck, Fu Jianhan would probably have been bedridden for several days.

It turned out to be a misunderstanding.

Fu Jianhan landed and looked the boy up and down. Seeing that he had not lost any essence, he realized that the Jade-Faced Lady had not kidnapped his friend to replenish his energy. Judging from this situation, it seemed that the Jade-Faced Lady had been subdued.

"Brother Fu!"

"It's been a long time, and your sword has become even sharper."

The young man looked delighted. This person had the heart of a child, and there were not many hidden agendas in getting along with him. He was also a martial arts fanatic like Lu Shanjun.

Fu Jianhan was quite uninhibited. He first clasped his hands in greeting to the Jade-Faced Lady, then said to the young man with a joyful expression, "A thousand cups of wine are not enough when drinking with a bosom friend."

"It's rare to run into an old friend."

"have a drink?"

When we met again today, his Dionysus curse mark faintly revealed a hint of dark gold.

The boy happily replied, "That's wonderful."

"please."

Unfortunately, Lu Shanjun was not here. He also liked to drink, saying that it helped him to move his blood and energy, and that alcohol emboldened him.

When Monk Bujie returned and saw Fu Jianhan, his face lit up with joy.

Finally, they're no longer a bunch of pink skeletons.

The yin energy is extremely strong.

After he practiced the Taotie Dharma, he also relaxed the precepts. This was something that people in the Buddhist community did not know. He was a little guilty and dared not say it. Monks who did not covet food were the darlings of the Buddhist community, and they could eat and drink without restraint. But he did not have such treatment. He should wait and see.

It's not too late to bring this up again when my achievements are greater and I can keep others in check.

Fu Jianhan took the Crimson Fire Gourd from his waist, poured wine for the young man, and told him about his recent experiences. He had killed a demon in Poyang Lake and unexpectedly obtained a Crimson Pill, which was perfect for making wine.

Hearing about the boy's recent experiences, mainly from the monk Bujie, the senior monk, reeking of alcohol, boasted about his recent achievements. Fu Jianhan looked on with longing and said regretfully, "If only I had known."

"I should travel with my brothers to slay demons and monsters."

That strange fish turned into a monster after eating too many human corpses. The world is not peaceful, and such monsters cannot be completely killed.

The young man's heart stirred, and he invited Fu Jianhan to accompany him.

At this moment, Fu Jianhan was also somewhat drunk, but his courage was extremely strong, and he said without hesitation, "Okay."

"I'll lend my brother a hand."

"It's just the right time to wipe out this bunch of demons and monsters in the Valley of Villains."

Normally, he would only drink three ounces of wine from the Crimson Fire Gourd, but today he had unconsciously drunk a bit too much. His face was flushed, and he put his arm around Monk Bujie's shoulder, discussing whether the Taiyin Lung Meridian technique was more domineering or the Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian technique was more powerful.

This guy cultivates the Shaoyang Gallbladder Meridian, making him a gallbladder in his body. Now he also cultivates the Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian, making his true qi pure yang fire. Although his internal strength is not strong enough, its purity far surpasses that of others.

The conflict between metal and fire has a long history.

Both Vajra and Pure Yang are techniques that unleash explosive bursts of true energy and are skilled in external martial arts. However, the Heart Sutra is the most difficult to master, while Pure Yang True Energy is a later-stage technique.

The two argued heatedly, their faces turning red, and immediately wanted to find a place to have a proper match.

The monk Bujie's Chaotic Cloak and Staff Technique has improved recently, and he has smashed the heads of several evil spirits and heretics. He can now learn from Fu Jianhan's Pure Yang Sword Qi.

"Isn't this monk a practitioner of the Demon-Subduing Staff Technique?"

The Jade-Faced Lady looked puzzled and quietly turned her head. The young man pretended not to see anything and said, "Drink tea, drink tea. Why are you so angry?"
