"Mind Bind?"
As Yi Chen’s consciousness sank into these characters, he instantly understood the function of this ability.
[Mind Bind: Implants an obsession within the target creature, expending one rune seed. A maximum of two rune seeds can be condensed. The weaker the creature, the higher the success rate.]
Hiss, a pyramid sche master/PUA expert?
The technique created by the old Heavenly Master is getting weirder by the minute.
Although the Heavenly Master himself never developed it to the eighth layer, Yi Chen wasn’t about to take the bla for it. Let whoever wants to carry the burden do so.
With a thought, Yi Chen imdiately turned his gaze to the still-sleeping bear, contemplating whether to implant a ’loyalty’ Mind Bind on it. After pondering for a while, he decided against the idea.
One must be kind-hearted.
It seed a bit too cruel to use the bear’s cave for experints after taking it over, especially when there were plenty of good candidates outside.
Shaking his head to dismiss the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Yi Chen began to practice with the Thunder Jade.
With only seven days left until the deadline of the black command token, he was just two points short of the Origin Points needed for the fourth breakthrough of his agility attribute.
Although the way he obtained Origin Points using the Thunder Jade was increasingly inefficient with his current constitution, it was still more reliable than fantasizing about developing the seventh form of the Immortal Slaying Halberd thod within seven days.
Sizzle~sizzle~sizzle~
Unlike before, where he just passively absorbed the electrical arcs, Yi Chen held the Thunder Jade directly in his hand in pursuit of a thrill, the eerie blue light casting a twisted and ferocious shadow on his face.
"Ah, thrilling!"
"Aweso!"
"That’s enough~"
A minute later, Yi Chen forcefully invoked the Extre Origin to break free from the sizzling Thunder Jade in his hand. After resting for the ti it took to drink a cup of tea, he gritted his teeth and grabbed the Thunder Jade once again.
You can’t stand firm if you’re not ruthless!
The pain he was enduring now, the bill for it, would sooner or later be paid by the Great Weide Heavenly Dragon Temple and the Yan Family!
Seven days later.
A bear slowly opened its eyes, and at that mont, it found twelve bear head etchings mysteriously carved on the walls of its cave.
There were twelve large figures in various poses: leaping, slapping, standing, running, all fours, beating chests, or standing still... each unique. At the end of the stone paintings, there were five characters, thunderous and powerful, Great Bear Demon Fist!
The bear’s gaze shifted backward, and at the end of the cave, it saw six empty honey pots scattered about. Those were its treasured honey reserves for winter, now hollowed out and flaunted by soone at so unknown ti.
"Roar!"
"Roar roar roar~" The bear imdiately stood upright, clearly in a panic.
....

"The bear had a secret recipe, eh? But it’s got to be bear honey that hits the spot."
"The rest just make Daoist cough."
"Truly, delightfully sweet!"
Atop a cliff, a tall Daoist popped the last piece of enticing golden honey into his mouth, casually discarding the empty pot to the side and taking out a black command token to examine closely.
This person was none other than Yi Chen.
The sand in the hourglass pattern on the black command token was almost entirely filtered through, with only the last bit remaining. Yi Chen’s scrutinizing gaze continuously sized up the black command token.
Today, a sudden thought struck him, moonlight.
This was why Yi Chen was on the cliff at this mont.
"Moonlight, sinister, Taiyin star power."
"This transmission actually requires the confluence of moonlight, why is that?"
Neither the ancient to handed down by the Zheng Family nor Kuimulang had ntioned this; Yi Chen’s brow furrowed in frustration.
Taiyin star power was the most cherished by things sinister and shady. The Extinction Ruins required the guidance of moonlight for positioning. Indeed... very sinister.
It seems a good forceful infusion of Pure Yang power will be necessary.
"The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish. The more Deep Red Points, the better!"
"After refining through Pure Yang power, with my present ’divine’ strength, I can actually use the World Inversion · Godslayer move twice in its entirety."
"Bolstered by the protection of the Qilin Sacred Armor’s right armguard and with the True Technique breaking through to the fifteenth layer, being a bit cautious should keep out of harm’s way."
"It’s a pity that stacking up Origin Points is now painfully slow, still two or three days of grinding away from gathering that last bit."
"But it doesn’t matter. You can’t always get what you want, and you can’t wait to be fully prepared for everything. If you do, you’ll never catch up with the heat of the action."
With a sigh, Yi Chen stood up tall, his gaze fixed on the black command token as he waited for the final monts to arrive.
In the sa space and ti.
Carefree Mountain.
Atop the Carefree Mountain is the Carefree Palace, and within the Carefree Palace dwells an immortal of leisure.
Shui Jingjing lightly tapped the water’s surface with her pure white toes, sending ripples outward in circles.
Beneath the water, her slim figure was as if a startled swan mirrored in reflection.
She lifted her head to gaze at the sky, watching the myriad stars and suddenly letting out a long sigh, she rose to her feet and in a few flickering movents arrived outside the palace gates.
Her jade hand lightly pressed against the grand doors of the palace, adorned with Taiji diagrams of Yin and Yang, and gently pushed.
A figure in white, sat cross-legged on a central dais within the great hall, holding a black command dallion, above the hall was a round and transparent void through which the myriad stars cascaded.
"Senior sister, must you really go to those Extinction Ruins?"
"Of course, sister Pei has entered deviated cultivation, and although she’s been sealed in ice by a secret technique, her condition worsens day by day. I’ve received word that within the Extinction Ruins’ Test of Conscience Cave lies a Celestial Heart Green Lotus capable of resolving sister’s peril," said the figure in white with a clear voice.
Shui Jingjing, like a banished immortal flying to the heavens, swept onto the central dais of the great hall, and abruptly, she embraced the slim waist of the figure in white. Her vermilion lips parted slightly and kissed her.
"Co back alive, Shui Yingying."

The Dao Sect of Creation was built atop a vast lake, surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing water on the other, with verdant tiles and lustrous like jade waters, grand arches and ridged roofs like wings, the imnse Daoist palace shrouded and hidden amidst the strange fog rising off the lake’s surface.
Atop a green platform that was high above the lake’s surface, round on the outside and square within, a young Daoist sat cross-legged.
At this mont, an elderly Daoist traversed the sky and landed upon the platform.
"Dao Zhen brother, have you truly decided to venture into the Extinction Ruins? The dangers there, I’m sure, are clearer to brother than to , as our sect’s records contain early accounts of them."
"Junior brother need not persuade further. Brother lacks your talent, and with my life nearing its end, if I do not take this chance, I fear I will no longer have an opportunity to glimpse the secrets of severing the path," the Daoist opened his eyes, his youthful face weathered with age, emanating a sense of twilight.
"Brother, for that thing, how many of our fellow Daoists have died there. Why must you..."
"Junior brother, why say more? In the end, it’s rely a shell of flesh. To hear the Dao in the morning, to die in the evening is sufficient. Go, be at ease and depart!"
Seeing that his earnest persuasion was to no avail, the elderly Daoist handed over a green teleportation talisman.
"Brother, please take care!"
——
The Sumi Buddha Temple.
An elderly Buddhist, full of compassion, gazed at a middle-aged monk before him.
"Wu Que, you are already aware of so of the Reincarnation Temple’s secrets. You are a seedling of our great Sumi Buddha Temple, and I have always asked you to suppress your realm for this very mont.
"The force of severing the path cannot be transmitted through the Extinction Ruins, hence only you can undertake this journey. Are you willing?"
"Wu Que will follow the Buddha’s decree with utmost respect!" The middle-aged monk’s expression was neither joyous nor sad as he clasped his hands together in a bow.
"Well said. With your current cultivation level, you can step into the realm of severing the path at any mont. Once you reach the Extinction Ruins, make your breakthrough first, then hurry to the Black Buddha Region. You must stop the Black Lotus venerable from erging from the Extinction Ruins; otherwise, blood will once again flow and bodies will float across the world."
"Co closer to , Black Lotus venerable... Reincarnation Temple... Black Buddha Region..."
"Have you morized it?"
——
Within the dark underground palace, two towering figures erged from the shadows, one after the other.
The leader was a bald man with bulging muscles and bare chest, sporting a massive gold ring through his nose.
Then ca the sound of tal dragging on the ground as a three-ter figure, his body covered in black iron armor and dragging a long iron chain, slowly erged.
The two glanced at each other, and without any prearrangent, each took out a black command dallion.
——
Amidst the black stone forest, a red-robed woman with a voluptuous figure and subtle demonic energy emanating from her erged, dragging a teor hamr. The moonlight illuminated her pale face, which was devoid of any flush of blood.
Croak, croak.
An unknown animal called out in the night, and suddenly, a gigantic teor hamr swung from the hands of the red-robed woman.
Whack! A deep crimson appeared within a pit on the ground!
"What a racket!" It was as if the sound of rubbing iron rang out.
All at once, the world fell silent.
The red-robed woman nonchalantly retracted her teor hamr and took out a black command dallion.
Around the world, one figure after another flickered into view. They were a mix of lone wanderers and small groups, each with different appearances and holding a variety of magical treasures, yet all bore a black command dallion in hand.
....
"It’s begun."
Yi Chen looked at the hourglass on the black command dallion as the last few grains of fine sand disappeared, and in an instant, the command dallion erupted into a burst of black smoke. The rich moonlight seed as if it was being drawn in, enveloping Yi Chen in a luminous bubble.
Imdiately, a strange fluctuation appeared in the air, and Yi Chen’s figure vanished from the spot.
