Every Link Can Be Unlocked

The Great Wilderness Creation Scripture does not involve the nine levels commonly used in the cultivation world, but rather thirteen levels.

Zhang Xuezhou's seventh-level Great Wilderness Creation Scripture was only halfway complete, which could be considered as entering the threshold of Yang Soul cultivation.

Ren Anran's cultivation has reached the eighth level, which is not considered a high level. Even now, when he tries to break through to the ninth level, he has not yet achieved perfection.

"Oh, why has this damn Spiritual Qi stopped?"

Zhu Jiuyin observed Ren Anran, saw him as a hope, and also imitated and learned from him in his cultivation.

However, Zhu Jiuyin's cultivation time was very short, and before he could even warm up, the Spiritual Qi rain on the back side of the Xieluosi River Secret Land had already stopped.

Zhu Jiuyin let out a mournful howl, feeling as if even the heavens themselves wanted to destroy him.

"Dongfang Shuo, go and re-establish the array's core. The Primordial Chaos Array has accumulated for twenty years, and it still retains some Spiritual Qi... Speaking of which, Lu Ya and Nine Spirits aren't here, so how did you manage to set up the array using my Glazed Glass?"

As he habitually gave instructions, Zhu Jiuyin suddenly remembered that he was no longer the same person he used to be, and couldn't help but sigh heavily again.

Fortunately, he had treated Zhang Xuezhou fairly well in the past, and Zhang Xuezhou did not take advantage of his misfortune to harm him, but maintained a dignified demeanor of stopping short of harming him.

However, he no longer had the confidence to boss Zhang Xuezhou around.

The words he uttered took a turn and then became a question.

"I hid in the palace of the Goat Strength Demon King, and took advantage of the Earth Dragon King transforming into a mountain to obscure my view and entered the secret place. Then I took the glass, dipped it in your blood, and used it to control the formation. At the time, I was just trying to buy as much time as possible, but unfortunately, the formation's power was incomplete and difficult to resist. Donghua forcefully broke through it!"

Zhang Xuezhou would still explain if necessary, after all, Zhu Jiuyin and Hongjun were too close, and he was able to survive half a month ago because of Zhu Jiuyin's relationship.

If a peaceful and friendly relationship can be maintained, Zhang Xuezhou would be happy to interact with Zhu Jiuyin on an equal footing.

"I have some good news to tell you!"

Zhang Xuezhou glanced at the lion demons in the Nine Spirits Secret Land who were starting to get agitated, and felt that he needed to prepare to leave the Xieluosi River Secret Land as soon as possible.

These lion demons have lived in the secret realm for a long time, and they are likely more sensitive to danger than Zhang Xuezhou.

At this moment, the rain of Spiritual Qi stopped, and only intermittent bursts of Spiritual Qi, like the exhaust fumes of a tractor, were spewing out, making the cultivation environment significantly worse than before.

Ren Anran's condition has stabilized, and Zhang Xuezhou is unwilling to put himself under a precarious situation.

His gaze swept over the pride of lions, then turned to Zhu Jiuyin.

"Great cultivators in the Great Han Dynasty have conducted tests, and it turns out that even if the physical body dies, the Yang Soul Body can continue to live!"

That's it?

Zhu Jiuyin was somewhat looking forward to good news from Zhang Xuezhou, but the good news Zhang Xuezhou gave him didn't make Zhu Jiuyin at all.

Zhang Xuezhou's words made it very clear that Zhang Xuezhou would not get involved in the mess to save his body.

Of course, Zhu Jiuyin must say that this choice is quite normal. Not to mention Zhang Xuezhou, even he wouldn't have the guts to challenge the combination of the Emperor and Empress with the two Western religious leaders.

If anyone could forcibly break a piece of flesh from these cultivators, Zhu Jiuyin could only think of Daojun.

Zhu Jiuyin knew that Daojun had the ability, which was one thing, but whether he dared to ask Daojun for help in this state was another. A tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs, and he dared not gamble on his situation after his downfall.

After much deliberation, Zhu Jiuyin's ultimate concern remained with Ren Anran, and he waited patiently for Ren Anran to bring his cultivation to a close.

"That's it," Zhang Xuezhou nodded. "Just knowing this is enough; it'll save you the trouble of repairing the tomb yourself!"

"I'm already in a terrible situation, don't expose my shortcomings like this!"

Zhu Jiuyin was truly unaware of the consequences of physical death. He felt that his physical body would collapse and was prepared to perish along with it.

Zhang Xuezhou's reminder was very helpful, but his current situation was too dire, making it difficult for him to feel happy about such news.

"Is what you said accurate? My physical body is in the hands of those old killers, so I probably won't live much longer. Even if they don't kill me, I will disintegrate and die," Zhu Jiuyin asked.

"I think it's very accurate," Zhang Xuezhou nodded. "Several people in the Great Han Dynasty practiced the Yang Soul Incarnation Technique. They died, but their Yang Soul bodies are still alive!"

"Who?"

"Dou Ying and Guan Fu, if you want to investigate, you can go to Changxin Palace in the imperial palace of Chang'an City to see what's going on!"

"I won't go, I believe you!"

Zhu Jiuyin curled up its dragon body, sometimes bowing its head and sometimes shaking its head.

Compared to checking on Dou Ying and the others, keeping an eye on Ren Anran is clearly more important.

For Zhu Jiuyin, his choices are few, and making the right decision is crucial; a single misstep could lead to certain doom.

Rather than saying that Zhu Jiuyin trusted Ren Anran, it would be more accurate to say that Zhu Jiuyin trusted Hongjun, who released the time and space lines.

Nothing in the world happens by chance; many things are interconnected. Zhu Jiuyin did not believe that Hongjun would lead him to his death, especially since Ren Anran had appeared in his secret place and was no longer as weak as before. More importantly, Ren Anran had broken through the limits of his cultivation of the Great Wilderness Creation Scripture.

"Daozi's Great Wilderness Creation Scripture has reached the ninth level!"

As the Spiritual Qi in the secret realm waned, Ren Anran seized the opportunity to advance the Great Wilderness Creation Scripture to its ninth level.

The speed at which this cultivation progressed made Zhu Jiuyin feel inferior, but it was precisely because of this that Zhu Jiuyin had unwavering confidence in his judgment, believing that he was very likely to have a different destiny.

"Why am I having trouble getting to the eighth floor?" Zhang Xuezhou asked.

"How would I know?" Zhu Jiuyin retorted. "I'm not much better than you!"

"It's a pity that this Spiritual Qi rain has stopped, making it difficult for me to advance to the tenth level in one go!"

Only after clashing with Zhu Jiuyin's soul did Ren Anran truly understand his power. She didn't dare utter a sound before Zhu Jiuyin arrived. Zhang Xuezhou's brief exchange with Zhu Jiuyin almost caused her to break down. It wasn't until Zhang Xuezhou calmed Zhu Jiuyin down that Ren Anran was able to stabilize her mind and break through to the ninth level of the Great Wilderness Creation Scripture.

At this moment, she glanced at Zhang Xuezhou and quickly communicated with him in the Scarlet Alliance State.

"You should stabilize yourself first. We'll push forward in one go once we open the Yin-Yang Secret Realm," Zhang Xuezhou replied. "How are you feeling right now?"

"I'm in great shape, better than ever since I mastered the Yang Soul Incarnation Technique," Ren Anran replied. "In the past, the Yang Soul Body was limited by physical cultivation, resulting in no difference in abilities between the Yang Soul Body and the physical body. Now, I can switch between Realm Technique at will. One moment I can be circulating the Heart Incantation, and the next I can switch to the Yin Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Incantation, and then quickly switch to the Yin Yang Great Joy Nine People Incantation, forming a fused state of Yin-Yang School Realm Technique. Switching back and forth repeatedly is no problem!"

"The application of the Realm Technique has become so arbitrary?"

Zhang Xuezhou was somewhat taken aback.

The thing that troubled him most in his life was the Realm Technique. If the Realm Technique could be changed so easily, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he would have changed it countless times over the years. No matter how profound the Yin-Yang School's Realm Technique was, it would be difficult to retain him at that time.

In the cultivation laws of the Southern Jambudvipa Continent, cultivators categorize techniques into four types: A, B, C, and D. Higher-level abilities can replace lower-level abilities, but lower-level abilities cannot replace higher-level abilities.

The Yin -Yin-Yang School's Realm Technique of the highest rank are almost irreplaceable, and even the classics of the Great Han Dynasty imperial family and Kunlun cannot shake them. How could anyone switch between them as easily as Ren Anran?

"So you're saying you can switch and test your Realm Technique at will?" Zhang Xuezhou asked curiously.

"It should be possible," Ren Anran nodded. "Aside from consuming a bit of Law Power, switching and simulating have no other drawbacks!"

"Then there's hope for our yin-yang fusion!"

Zhang Xuezhou gasped, realizing that once one link in the chain was untied, the rest of the chain would be untied as well.

The Empress Dowager suffered aftereffects after reaching the True Self Realm in her cultivation of the Realm Technique. Dong Zhongshu failed twice in the True Self Realm and never dared to try again. Everyone was not lacking in research spirit or research ability, but no one's body could withstand repeated attempts.

Ren Anran's situation is undoubtedly extremely peculiar, and she is very likely to have the opportunity to repeatedly try and fail.

If we keep trying, we might just find a way through.

The two whispered to each other for a while, but Zhu Jiuyin, who couldn't understand the Scarlet Alliance State, was completely bewildered.

But Zhu Jiuyin was certain of one thing: demons are good at learning languages. Over the long years, he had learned almost all the languages of various places. Any language that he could not understand must have originated from outside the Three Realms.

In other words, these two guys in front of us are both from outside the local population.
