Who is spreading rumors that my filial piety towards them has changed?

are people.

Putting aside this insignificant difference, if we consider the Yin core, how much extreme Yin energy can it contain?

Chu Mingkong didn't know, nor did he dare to try, for fear of dying if he did. But he felt that he was so powerful when he was at his peak, so even if he were to transform into the Abyss, he wouldn't be much worse off.

Even though for a long time his cultivation level had fallen to the point where he had to go into hiding, Chu Mingkong still remembered how strong he should be and that he should never stop at that level.

Everyone has a competitive spirit to some extent, and Chu Mingkong is no exception.

That night, when Xiao Yunhan came to test whether he had lost his "heart," Chu Mingkong was actually very frustrated inside.

He knew that Xiao Yunhan meant that even if your strength is not as good as before, you must retain your ambition as a strong person and not give up on yourself.

But to Chu Mingkong, it sounded jarring, because his mind would unconsciously interpret it as something else entirely.

Let me ascertain your current state of mind.

because,

It's pointless to confirm your current strength.

stop--

stop--

Chu Mingkong shook his head: "Extreme Yin energy really does affect emotions. What the hell was I thinking about just now?"

The shattered "eggshell" continuously released extremely yin energy. He was like a thief stealing the essence of the egg, absorbing this dense black mist of death into his body and gathering it in his heart.

The abyssal heart grew increasingly robust, and a dark purple light emanated from beneath its clothing, flickering with the rhythm of its breath.

pain!

The pain is excruciating!

The pain is like a nerve being torn apart!

Chu Mingkong couldn't tell whether the pain was from the worsening of his injuries or from the excruciating pain caused by his heart pounding against his chest.

The absorption of extreme Yin energy was no longer his initiative; rather, these death-bringing energies gathered there on their own initiative.

The small hole in the bronze statue's barrier was like an anthill breaching a thousand-mile-long dike, with extremely yin energy pouring out unrestrainedly, and the crack grew larger and larger!

The dam is collapsing!

However, the leaked Yin energy did not affect the densely populated outskirts of the capital, because it was all absorbed by Chu Mingkong!

His heart was beating faster and faster.

Boom!

Boom!

Thump th ...

Like the beating of war drums, like the explosion of thunder, the entire world resonated with his heartbeat. The sound of his heartbeat drowned out the chanting of scriptures. The people, who were captivated by the Buddhist chanting, suddenly awoke with a cold sweat pouring down their faces, and a strong sense of death loomed over their hearts.

Their consciousness blurred, they felt dizzy and fainted, and even the allure of the Buddhist scriptures could not sway them.

The interruption of the people's will caused a flaw to appear in the bronze statue formation.

Chu Mingkong gritted his teeth, drew his heavy sword, dragged it across the ground, sending sparks flying, and then with an upward thrust, his power shattered the earth, like a tsunami crashing down on the monk who was chanting scriptures with all his might.

The golden body collided with the sword wave, and before the crisp sound could even be heard, it was shattered into pieces.

"I need to release this extreme Yin energy. My heart can't refine it, and I don't have any cultivation techniques to refine this power."

Chu Mingkong knew exactly what to do in this situation; he just needed to follow his instincts.

Like a boy who accidentally ingests aphrodisiacs, he dreams of expelling the excess toxins with an older sister.

Chu Mingkong felt that his energy and strength were at their peak, and he wanted to release the excess power from the places where he was most overloaded.

I can't wait!

No, that won't work.

There are so many people here.

Even though they were both unconscious, there was still a possibility that they could be seen.

If it's leaked in front of everyone, you'll lose face!

He shattered the remaining barrier with a single sword strike, leaping into the secret gate of the ancient Buddhist temple, like a traveler desperately trying to urinate, his urine almost fermenting, and rushing headlong into the outhouse.

As soon as he entered, Chu Mingkong knew he no longer needed to endure it. He opened his arms and embraced the secret realm, as if he were embracing the giant female bodhisattva who seemed to be cosplaying the Venus de Milo!

He knew he had to shout it out loud, to let it all burst forth in that shout:

"Aa ...

Then......

puff-

His heart ruptured.

The heart, which had accumulated an excessive amount of yin energy, exploded.

Black, sludge-like blood gushed out, seemingly under conscious control, covering his body.

He was overwhelmed by his own filth, his palm-sized heart gushing black blood like diarrhea.

Chu Mingkong was "embraced" by his own blood and turned into a giant blood man nearly three meters tall, his limbs covered in black "armor".

The shouts stopped, and Chu Mingkong fell silent. He said calmly:

"I'm so stupid. I almost spilled the Yin energy everywhere. If that happened, the people in the suburbs wouldn't be able to farm. But how come this blood is climbing up on its own?"

His emotions fluctuated wildly, and he himself was somewhat unable to control them.

Regardless, this is a good thing for Chu Mingkong, as he can feel that his current state is greatly depleting his Yin energy!

His attention returned to the battle within the secret realm.

Several strangers huddled together. Zuo Qiuchi, whom they hadn't seen for several days, was slightly injured. It didn't seem to be caused by the extreme yin energy earlier, but rather by internal injuries left by the backlash after using the secret technique.

Thankfully, she was unharmed!

Zuo Qiuchi reacted quickly. Although he didn't know why his disciple had become such a grotesque figure, judging from his scrutinizing gaze just now, his rationality should not have been affected.

There was still a lot of extremely yin energy remaining in this secret realm, so Zuo Qiuchi didn't want to make any rash moves and stayed where he was for the time being.

"Slay that eunuch, but spare his life! Kill the rest as you please!" Zuo Qiuchi shouted.

Chu Mingkong's gaze locked onto Gao Nan himself. This eunuch, who had no niu niu, had supposedly gone out of the city on business. It turned out he was here to ambush his master!

"The Crown Prince has transformed into a malevolent being? The world must punish him! Hahahaha!"

Gao Nan, using a eunuch's voice, laughed loudly, crushed a jade token, and opened a portal in an attempt to escape.

"Bah bah bah!"

Chu Mingkong spat out several mouthfuls of bloody saliva. The teleportation portal was instantly corroded by the extreme yin power. Gao Nanben had already stuck half a leg inside when the suddenly collapsing teleportation portal "ate" off his leg.

Chu Mingkong swept his tattered heavy sword over and, taking advantage of Gao Nanben's inconvenience, severed his remaining leg. The Abyss Poison Plate adhered to Gao Nanben's wound, and the excruciating pain caused Gao Nanben to lose his voice and howl in agony.

"I have three legs, and you don't have one anymore. How's the Abyss Wound? I've been enjoying it for ages!!" Chu Mingkong kicked Gao Nanben, who was writhing and groaning like an insect, towards Zuo Qiuchi, leaving her to deal with him.

With one enemy eliminated, Chu Mingkong turned to look at the group of people who had joined forces on the other side. Their clothing reflected both good and evil, indicating they belonged to different factions.

But since they're here, it means they're all people who want to harm Zuo Qiuchi!

Even if the emperor were inside, he would still have to die!

The heavy sword could no longer withstand the extreme yin energy and had already decayed. Chu Mingkong rushed over, carrying a long spear, which was covered in muddy blood and black flames.

The group in the corner worked together to erect a barrier. The barrier combined several magical treasures with their own power. When Gao Nan released his extreme Yin energy, they managed to delay the release of the energy for a while.

We should be able to hold this person off now!

However, they may not know that someone had been continuously drawing away the extremely yin energy from outside, which is why their shields were able to withstand the thin yin energy here.

"Hurry, move towards the gate to the secret realm and get out of here. We can just ruin a few more magic treasures if necessary, everyone, don't be stingy!" the old man from the Sword Pavilion said anxiously. "I've also taken out a broken sword with extreme Yang power to help everyone get through this difficult time!"

The shield was then covered with a faint golden light.

Unfortunately, it's too thin.

Chu Mingkong swung his halberd down, splashing black blood that instantly melted the shield. The people under the shield didn't understand what was happening and were directly crushed to death.

Despair and doubt remained frozen in the last moment of their lives.

However, the enemy was not completely defeated, so Chu Mingkong turned his attention to the huge Bodhisattva statue.

This Dharma image was originally intended to disappear, but the extreme Yin energy did not corrode the relic; instead... it mutated it!

At this moment, the Bodhisattva's appearance was filled with an eerie aura. Her severed arms reappeared on her body, but the connection was not quite right; her left arm went to her right side, and her right arm went to her left side.

She regarded Chu Mingkong as an enemy.

Chu Mingkong looked at the relic, which could also be seen as a kind of container.

It contains the great aspirations of Buddhists during their lifetime and the vows of believers; it can inject excessive amounts of yin energy into it!

This Buddhist sanctuary won't last long; it will soon collapse and be banished to the void.

The female bodhisattva's image has its eyes on him, and Chu Mingkong has also set his sights on the female bodhisattva, but he wants to disperse this image because it's getting in his way!

If this image can be broken up, a considerable amount of space can be freed up within the relic to hold extremely yin energy.

"My halberd handle is very large, please bear with it, my lady!"

There's a lot I want to say, but I already spread some negative energy a few days ago, so I won't continue spreading it during the holidays. I just hope everyone can support me tomorrow!

The VIP chapter will be updated at midnight tonight. It's short, only 2 words.

I've been visiting relatives a lot during the Chinese New Year holidays, and the process of stockpiling chapters has been difficult. I usually add extra chapters after stockpiling a few. At the end of last month, I added extra chapters from time to time. If I hadn't added extra chapters before, I probably would have 4 to 5 words in stockpiles by now.

Although I've already checked it once, there might still be some typos or other errors that I missed. Please bear with me; after all, this is like a math test—there will always be careless mistakes you can't spot. Orz

Rules for extra chapters in February.
