"I have rested well."

Rested well?

Then I'll give it a try.

Li Zhiyuan took out the palette, mixed the colors, and began painting on the blank pages of the evil book.

He was painting the Corpse-Driving Daoist.

Since this evil book can discern cultivation techniques and repair arrays... can it also recognize people?

Ideally, as soon as one finishes painting a person, their life record would appear.

Of course, Li Zhiyuan knew this would be highly unlikely, almost impossible.

Therefore, he painted this picture to verify something else.

This painting was done by his own hand, and the Corpse-Driving Daoist in the painting was his chosen fourth wave target, one could say it was stained with his karmic journey through the rivers.

Although the plan was still in the plotting and starting stages, the young man wanted to see if it had already involved "heavenly secrets".

Heavenly secrets cannot be divulged, but they can be sensed. Zhao Yi from the Jiujiang Zhao Family had a seam of the Gate of Life and Death on his forehead, which had a similar effect, helping him avoid misfortune and secure fortune.

But if you truly consider who can best sense heavenly secrets, who can best avoid misfortune and secure fortune... it would be evil items.

The existence of such things itself is a challenge to the Heavenly Dao. If they had no sense of heavenly secrets, they wouldn't have survived till now; they would have long perished in the river of history.

This evil book is terrifyingly evil, and Li Zhiyuan is always very cautious when using it, which is why he's confident in his keen perception of this book.

As long as it has some reaction, even just a faint one, it could indirectly prove that the attempt he is making now, the path he's walking on, has a probability of success!

In fact, only a young man would be willing to use such a precious item as a sacrificial piece to test heavenly secrets.

Anyone else, even the righteous, would neither touch this evil book nor would they be willing to use it as firewood just to see a light, for that's truly an act of wasteful excess.

Initially, when Li Zhiyuan started painting, as if knowing he was painting a person, the evil book would add a few strokes to save him some effort.

When the young man began to color it, the evil book could quickly help fill and render it.

Sometimes, when it made a mistake helping, Li Zhiyuan only needed to pause the tip of his brush slightly on it, and the evil book would erase the part where it drew unnecessarily and let Li Zhiyuan paint it himself.

But just as it was almost finished, even with the paper money drawn, the evil book remained as calm as ever.

Li Zhiyuan couldn't help but doubt: Is it really just me amusing myself?

However, since he painted, he should finish it thoroughly and pay attention to details.

Li Zhiyuan started writing the words on the paper money, for which he switched to a fine brush.

The first paper money: Yin people on the road, Yang people give way.

Just as Li Zhiyuan wrote the "Yin," the evil book kindly imitated his writing style and filled in the remaining seven characters.

Li Zhiyuan nodded and, on another paper money in the painting, lifted his brush and wrote the character "Jie".

Once this character was written, the evil book didn't fill in the rest.

The rest should have been: Jie family reward, little ghosts bow.

Not only that, Li Zhiyuan sensed the evil book trembling; it was afraid, very terrified.

It definitely wasn't the Jie family that could scare it so much.

Because Li Zhiyuan had used it to experiment with an advanced version of the "Liu's Qi Observation Technique," it straightforwardly revealed to him which cultivation technique it was.

No matter how powerful and terrifying the Jie family is, they can't surpass the real Dragon King family.

So, it's not afraid of the Jie family, it's afraid of...

"Bang!"

A flame erupted,

The book caught fire!
