Madam, don't do this!

Chapter 612 The Hidden Flaw of the "Hundred Flowers Mirror" (12,000 words)

Hearing Dong Yunshu's words, Song Yan felt a chill all around her, and her teeth involuntarily clenched together, feeling a sudden shiver of fear.

Nonsense, any man would be terrified upon hearing that.

Indeed, most men have some degree of lust and desire. When they see a beautiful woman, they can't help but wonder what it would be like to sleep with her. Men are also insatiable; even if they already have a wife, they will still think about having multiple wives and concubines, and having women on both sides.

But a man's greed has its limits. Five thousand women, and having sex with nearly a hundred women every day... Even the most insatiable man would turn pale on the spot. My God, this is no longer about enjoying sexual pleasure; it's about being squeezed dry!
No wonder that grandmaster wanted to flee.

Rather, what Song Yan admired most was that the Grandmaster could hold out for quite some time under such circumstances. Was his kidney made of iron? Unfortunately, with enough practice, even an iron rod can be ground into a needle. Even the Grandmaster's iron kidney couldn't withstand the relentless grind; it eventually gave way.

Originally, Song Yan thought that the Grandmaster was using the bodies of many women for his cultivation. But now, he suddenly had a feeling that perhaps the Grandmaster was the one being controlled.

Inexplicably, an image of a gaunt man, chained to a bed, with a blank expression and eyes full of despair, appeared in his mind, while a line of women stretched as far as the eye could see beside the bed.

Then his body trembled violently. This time, he had only learned of the news in advance, and Yuheng had also intervened. If he had really been kidnapped by Dong Yunshu, would this have been his fate?
Dong Yunshu glanced at Song Yan with some surprise, then shook her head and nodded again: "Perhaps, yes."

Song Yan raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean...maybe?"

“Grandmaster, his surname is Yin and his given name is Hong.” Dong Yunshu did not answer directly, but instead slowly began to explain: “We usually address him as Senior Brother Yin.”

She ran her fingers through the strands of hair at her temples, her eyes filled with a slight daze, as if lost in some kind of memory: "The Hehuan Sect has existed for a long time, perhaps one or two hundred years. Its reputation has never been very good. After all, the Hehuan Sect's cultivation method is what it is. Male disciples absorb the essence of women, and female disciples absorb the essence of men... It is simply absorbing the essence, not some kind of dual cultivation."

"To put it bluntly, during those times, countless men and women were violated in the martial arts world and even in ordinary people's homes. As a result, the disciples of the Hehuan Sect were basically hated and killed by everyone in the martial arts world."

"Senior Brother Yin Hong said that this was not good. If things continued like this, the Hehuan Sect would be wiped out sooner or later by the combined forces of the famous sects in the martial arts world. So Senior Brother Yin prepared to create a new cultivation method that was not just about absorbing male and female essences, but was beneficial to both men and women. In this way, the disciples of the Hehuan Sect, regardless of gender, would no longer need to go to the martial arts world to find targets. They could simply pair up and consume each other within the sect."

"Such an idea is somewhat fanciful, but... that's why we say Senior Brother Yin Hong is a genius. He has thoroughly mastered the secret techniques of the Hehuan Sect, successfully entered the realm of Grandmaster, and stolen countless martial arts classics from various sects in the martial arts world, especially some dual cultivation techniques of Taoism, as well as the joyful meditation of Buddhism. Tantric Buddhism is also a key target."

"He mastered and digested all these martial arts manuals, integrated them, and combined their strengths to make up for his weaknesses, ultimately creating two books that can be called supreme classics."

Song Yan squinted: "The Hundred Flowers Precious Mirror and the Extreme Yin Plain Girl Classic?"

“That’s right, exactly.” Dong Yunshu nodded gently: “Both secret manuals have their flaws. The Su Nu Jing makes rapid progress when practicing, but it will accumulate cold poison in the body; the Bai Hua Bao Jian makes progress slightly slower than the Su Nu Jing, but it can be used to detoxify the Su Nu Jing.”

"If a man who cultivates the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror and a woman who cultivates the Plain Girl Scripture cooperate and practice dual cultivation, then it will be a yin and yang, yin and yang merging together, and both can achieve twice the result with half the effort."

Song Yan slowly exhaled. Anyone who can create their own martial arts is a genius.

To create two books at once, that makes someone an exceptionally talented individual.

"So, Yin Hong made the 'Extreme Yin Su Nu Jing' public, and then only he could cultivate the 'Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror,' thereby controlling the entire Hehuan Sect?" Song Yan raised an eyebrow and asked in a calm and unhurried voice.

Dong Yunshu gritted her teeth, then shook her head again: "That's not the case. Senior Brother Yin isn't the kind of person who's stingy. His talent is extraordinary. He was already the designated next sect leader. After creating two secret manuals, Senior Brother Yin made them public. Anyone who is a disciple of the Hehuan Sect can cultivate them."

"However, something went wrong during my cultivation." Dong Yunshu's voice also revealed a hint of helplessness. These were all secrets from decades ago, known to very few in the vast martial arts world. But since she had already surrendered, Dong Yunshu no longer hid anything and told everything that should and shouldn't be said.

Song Yan also became slightly interested and was willing to play the role of a suitable straight man: "What's wrong?"

"The female disciples are progressing very smoothly in cultivating the Plain Girl Scripture, even faster than the previous one-sided cultivation of internal energy." Dong Yunshu's brows were also tightly furrowed, clearly she still had some doubts even after so many years: "But the situation of the male disciples is very bad. Thousands of male disciples are cultivating the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror at the same time, but not a single one of them has been able to cultivate internal energy."

"what?"

Song Yan was shocked and suddenly raised her head, her face full of disbelief.

"The Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror can't cultivate internal energy? How is that possible!"

Back then, during a moment of pleasure with Gu Banxia, ​​he casually circulated the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror twice, and his inner strength naturally and smoothly grew without any stagnation. Even now, Song Yan still feels that cultivating inner strength is actually quite simple and easy for martial artists; on the contrary, tempering the physical body seems to be much more difficult.

But now Dong Yunshu says that not a single one of the thousands of male disciples of the Hehuan Sect has been able to cultivate internal energy.
Dong Yunshu also frowned: "That's right. Apart from Senior Brother Yin, no one can cultivate the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror."

"The entire sect was in an uproar. Almost everyone felt that Senior Brother Yin was hoarding the real Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror and that what he gave to his junior brothers was a fake. No matter how Senior Brother Yin tried to explain, no one believed him. Even the sect leader and many elders personally examined it and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the cultivation method Senior Brother Yin presented. However, when Senior Brother Yin created this cultivation method, he based it on his own condition, so only those with the same or similar physique as Senior Brother Yin could cultivate it."

“Ordinary men would find the Hundred Flowers Mirror useless even if they obtained it. But even with the testimony of the sect elders, the male disciples still refused to believe it. They preferred to believe that Senior Brother Yin wanted to use the Extreme Yin Maiden Scripture to control all the female disciples in the sect.”

Song Yan felt a little embarrassed, as he had just said something similar.

“These male disciples are extremely angry with Senior Brother Yin. There’s nothing they can do. The Extreme Yin Su Nu Scripture is too fast to cultivate, and it also has the effect of preserving youth. Even the wives of these male disciples will secretly seek out Senior Brother Yin for dual cultivation to detoxify.” Dong Yunshu did not notice Song Yan’s expression and continued, “I can’t remember exactly how much time has passed. I only know that more and more women are surrounding Senior Brother Yin.”

"And the number of male disciples in the Hehuan Sect is decreasing."

"With the passing of the sect leader, Senior Brother Yin naturally became the sect leader. Moreover, by cultivating with a large number of women every day, Senior Brother Yin's strength improved by leaps and bounds, and he finally became the only Grandmaster in hundreds of years."

Song Yan nodded slightly. With the domineering nature of the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror, it was quite normal for him to have such a speed of progress, having cultivated with nearly a hundred women every day: "So, in the beginning, this Grandmaster Yin Hong's relationship with most of the women in the Joyful Union Sect wasn't actually bad? Even if there were conflicts, they were only between him and the male disciples?"

"Yes."

"If that's the case, why did they turn against each other?" Song Yan wondered.

Dong Yunshu pursed her lips: "Because... Senior Brother Yin has changed."

"changed?"

“Yes.” Dong Yunshu nodded emphatically, her eyes revealing deep fear: “Ever since Senior Brother Yin became a Grandmaster, his personality has gradually changed.”

"He was no longer as indulging in the pleasures of women as before. Anyone could sense that when Senior Brother Yin saw a woman in the sect, his eyes were filled with intense disgust. It is said that sometimes when a woman approached Senior Brother Yin, he would even lose control, leaning against the wall and vomiting uncontrollably."

Song Yan's expression was strange. Could it be that he had been practicing dual cultivation with too many women every day, and over time he had developed a dual physical and psychological aversion to women, to the point that he felt like vomiting whenever he saw one?
Under such circumstances, Yin Hong naturally had no way to continue dual cultivation with the women of the Hehuan Sect.

However, the women of the Hehuan Sect would never allow such a thing to happen. On the one hand, they hoped to quickly enhance their strength through dual cultivation. As martial artists, they had a perverse pursuit of realm and power. They even thought that if Yin Hong could become a Grandmaster, so could they. On the other hand, they also needed Yin Hong to resolve the cold poison in their bodies.

This was the initial conflict between the two sides.

What Dong Yunshu said was similar to what Song Yan guessed.

"Actually, Senior Brother Yin was very kind to the junior sisters and disciples in the sect and took good care of them. He would also guide the disciples in their cultivation when he had free time. Almost every woman in the Hehuan Sect had a very good impression of Senior Brother Yin. In fact, the disciples often discussed in private who could become Senior Brother Yin's wife."

"Sometimes, in order to win Senior Brother Yin's favor, they resort to all sorts of dirty tricks, even more so than the struggles in the imperial palace. However, as Senior Brother Yin Hong distanced himself from the disciples, many senior sisters, junior sisters, and even junior disciples gradually became dissatisfied with him, especially after experiencing the pain of the cold poison outbreak, this dissatisfaction reached its peak." "Just then, some people suddenly came to the Hehuan Sect. These people were the male disciples who had previously left the Hehuan Sect. They always felt that Yin Hong had not handed over the real Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror."

"These male disciples wanted to obtain the real Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror and also wanted to reach the Grandmaster realm; while these female disciples wanted to control Yin Hong, lock him in a secret room, and use him specifically for antidote pills. They also felt that if there were more people in the world who cultivated the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror, there would be more antidotes, so even without Yin Hong, there would be no need to worry about the cold poison erupting. Thus, the two sides hit it off immediately."

"While Yin Hong was in seclusion, tens of thousands of experts from inside and outside the Hehuan Sect launched a sneak attack on him."

As she said this, a deep fear suddenly appeared on Dong Yunshu's face. Her face turned deathly pale, devoid of any color, and her whole body was trembling uncontrollably. Judging from Dong Yunshu's appearance, one could roughly guess that this war had not gone smoothly. At least in Dong Yunshu's heart, it must have left a shadow that she could never shake off for the rest of her life.

After a long silence, Dong Yunshu pursed her lips and spoke again: "It wasn't until Yin Hong walked out of the secret chamber, until the moment Yin Hong made his move, that we finally understood just how vast the gap was between a Grandmaster and a Master. It was like an insurmountable chasm..."

"I don't know how to describe that feeling. It's like... we are just martial arts practitioners, while Senior Brother Yin Hong is a cultivator. Even though we were dozens of steps apart, Senior Brother Yin Hong just stretched out his right hand towards a senior sister and squeezed hard. We didn't even have time to feel the fluctuation of his internal energy before that senior sister's entire body exploded."

Song Yan clicked his tongue. Even the Six Meridian Divine Sword wasn't this exaggerated. Even Qiao Feng carrying a speaker and using the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms probably wasn't this frightening.

"However, the plan has already begun, so there is no possibility of stopping it. We will eventually rush in."

"It was a one-sided massacre. Yin Hong simply waved his hand, and dozens of people were shattered. He just stomped his foot, and those who managed to rush to his side were sent flying, their blood staining the sky."

"Eighth and ninth grade grandmasters seem to be no different in front of Yin Hong, being slaughtered at will like chicks."

"On that day, the entire Hehuan Sect was shrouded in a thick blood mist."

"Corpses littered the road, and blood flowed like rivers on the ground."

Dong Yunshu's body trembled more and more violently, and her voice became somewhat shrill: "Almost everyone thought that Senior Brother Yin would kill everyone like this... But, seeing that fewer and fewer people were alive, Senior Brother Yin suddenly stopped, then his face turned red, and then he vomited blood continuously."

"We thought Senior Brother Yin had exhausted his internal energy and were originally prepared to run away, but seeing Senior Brother Yin's appearance, we felt that there was still a chance and rushed up again."

"Actually, there have always been some women around Senior Brother Yin, a total of seven, all of whom are senior sisters in the sect. Even after Senior Brother Yin's personality changed drastically, his attitude towards these women did not change much. Therefore, these seven women are extremely loyal to Senior Brother Yin and have the deepest feelings for him. They did not participate in the fighting before, thinking that Senior Brother Yin was enough to suppress everything. But when they saw Senior Brother Yin spitting blood, they felt that something was wrong, so they rushed out to try to save Senior Brother Yin."

"Unfortunately, although these seven senior sisters are powerful, they are ultimately not as invincible as Senior Brother Yin. Under the siege, they began to be injured or even killed one by one."

"Everyone was so engrossed in the killing that in the end, they couldn't even tell who was killing whom."

"Just when the last senior sister was about to be killed, Senior Brother Yin finally rushed out, coughing up blood as he led this senior sister and managed to fight his way out of the encirclement."

"When we finally calmed down, we discovered that there were only ninety-seven people left alive in the vast Hehuan Sect."

Song Yan let out a heavy sigh, and inexplicably felt a heavy weight in his chest.

Thousands upon thousands were killed, leaving only ninety-seven survivors… It seems they were truly insane at that point.

Dong Yunshu seemed lost in memories, and after a long while she slowly spoke: "After gradually calming down, we trembled and endured our fear as we entered Senior Brother Yin Hong's secluded chamber, where we found the 'Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror'!"

Song Yan's eyelids twitched: "Didn't they say that when the Grandmaster disappeared, he also took the 'Hundred Flowers Mirror' with him?"

Moreover, since the Hehuan Sect possesses the original copy of the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror, what's the point of having this copy in my possession?
Dong Yunshu shook her head again: "This is just a rumor circulating in the martial arts world."

"That Hundred Flowers Mirror is no different from the one that Senior Brother Yin gave to the male disciples of the sect before, except that it has a lot more annotations. Through the annotations, we finally understand that Senior Brother Yin Hong's self-created Hundred Flowers Mirror is not perfect and has some loopholes."

"This kind of loophole is not obvious before one reaches the Grandmaster level, and may even have no effect."

"But after becoming a Grandmaster, problems arise... After all, before Senior Brother Yin Hong, no one had ever cultivated to such a level. How exactly should a Grandmaster cultivate, and what kind of techniques should be used? It was all completely unknown."

Song Yan also became serious: "What problem, and what impact will it have?"

After all, he was cultivating the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror.

Although the Grandmaster level is far beyond his reach, what if... knowing the problem in advance can at least help prevent it, right?
Dong Yunshu slowly raised her head, her eyes fixed on Song Yan: "After cultivating to the Grandmaster level, the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror seems to affect the cultivator's mind, making the cultivator fierce, cruel, tyrannical, and easily angered. Most importantly, the cultivator's desires will become stronger than ever before, almost greedily and madly sinking into desires, unable to extricate themselves."

"Senior Brother Yin feels that if things continue like this, he will die."

Nonsense, they're definitely going to be drained dry and die.

Song Yan couldn't help but grin. Good heavens, he already had sex with nearly a hundred women every day. If his needs continued to grow, he would really be ground to a pulp.

"Moreover, when tyranny, cruelty and desire are combined, the result is that several women were tortured to death by Yin Hong during the dual cultivation."

"If this continues, he might turn into a mindless beast who only knows how to crave the opposite sex!"

"It was precisely for this reason that Yin Hong began to distance himself from his fellow disciples and prepared to go into seclusion to rewrite the Hundred Flowers Mirror. He has even revised a portion of it. If Senior Brother Yin were given a few more months, the Hundred Flowers Mirror might be completely renewed."

"In that Hundred Flowers Mirror, it is recorded how Yin Hong restrained his desires. He restrained them too much, and Senior Brother Yin even went a little crazy."

"It seems that he also used some means to give himself psychological suggestion, to the point that he felt like vomiting whenever he saw a woman other than his seven senior sisters."

Song Yan pursed his lips. Perhaps it wasn't that he was giving himself psychological suggestions, but rather that he had been intimate with women too much, which had caused him to develop an extreme aversion to women. However, the influence of the Hundred Flowers Mirror amplified his desires. On one hand, there was the aversion in his heart, and on the other hand, there was the desire in his body. The collision of these two factors resulted in him vomiting incessantly.

"However, if one does not have intercourse with a woman for a long time while cultivating the Hundred Flowers Treasure Mirror, it will cause serious damage to one's body. This is why Senior Brother Yin suddenly vomited blood during the battle."

Song Yan frowned deeply. Was he just a beast who only knew how to indulge in desire?

He didn't want to become that kind of thing, much less become violent, cruel, and hurt the women around him.

"Is there really no solution?"

"Yes!" Dong Yunshu suddenly raised her head, her eyes shining: "Senior Brother Yin Hong's book truly records a direct and effective solution."

Song Yan was overjoyed: "What method is it?"

"Cut it off!"

Hey!
