His chest tightened. He would not be able to escape without God’s Limbs. With his last resort up in smokes, was this the end of the road for him?

This Yinyang Cave was fairly strange. If he were to die here, there was no telling if even Life and Death Scripture could revive him.

With only one life to live, it was not worth the risk. All would be in vain if he were to really die here!

Struck by the thought, he immediately demonstrated Life and Death Scripture before he froze. However, to his dismay, Life and Death Scripture proved ineffective. The surrounding spiritual energy did not gather close toward him; it seemed to be warded off by the cave.

The cave in which he resided looked to be a restricted area. God’s Limb could not be used, and spiritual energy could not come close.

He was not able to extricate himself from this situation without the presence of spiritual energy, leaving his body weaker by the second. He was growing frail after each cycle of Yin and Yang. At this rate, he would be annihilated in a few more cycles, let alone seven days.

Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture, Great Light Scripture, Heavenly Demon Scripture, Omniscient Mirror, White Tiger Power, Cloud Slashing Power were all put to the test to no avail against the Yin and Yang energies. In the end, only Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture was left.

He tried his best to comprehend Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture, but could not make any progress. Within the span of a few breaths, he was about to study Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture when his mind went blank, being caught in a daze. The next time he regained consciousness, his mind froze again at the thought of Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture.

Time passed as he was put through trials of recalling and losing his thoughts repeatedly.

He found himself growing feeble. He completely lost his senses of time and the outside world as he engaged in cycles of recollection and memory lapse. His attention began to scatter and past memory became a blur, showing signs he was about to lose his memory.

He was not afraid of terror and bodily strife, but this Yinyang Cave was to be feared of its impact on the spirit. It was capable of harming the body and the spirit at the same time. If it were not for his naturally strong-spirit adding to his fearless nature, he probably would have been turned into an idiot and quietly pass away.

He fought hard to resist against this harm through his unwillingness to give in to death and persistence for life. The text of Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture circulated in his mind until his the voidness in his solidified mind finally recovered with the demon and Buddha respectively chanting scriptures.

Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture was swiftly brought to full play as the scripture moved in his mind, resisting against the invading Yin and Yang energies.

As the circulation of Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture gained momentum, he managed to grasp its comprehend of what was Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang were originally an entity. In an endless cycle of Yin and Yang, these two energies were engendering and restraining in nature, yet they interchanged with one another.

Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture enabled the conversion between the Yin and Yang. He could convert the intruding Yang energy in Yin. Although the reversal was not much, it was enough to stop the Yang energy from scorching him out of consciousness.

In a blink of an eye, the Yin energy came after, prompting him to cancel out such energy by converting it to Yang energy. Hence, he was able to prevent the Yin energy from freezing his body and spirit.

Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture was manifested at an accelerated rate until at last, he could freely reverse between Yin and Yang. Yin to Yang, Yang to Yin, he could move through the energies at will. Not only was his body left undamaged, but it was also gathering strength from the exchanges.

Unknowingly, he assumed the same sitting posture as the Buddha in his mind. The Buddha was sitting on a lotus while he was sitting on the stone bed. His palms positioned in the same hand gesture and his expression the same solemnity, serene yet merciful.

His Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture improved by a large margin and his comprehension took a huge leap. He was no longer the former person he was!

Suddenly, he gained the confidence to defeat even Monk Zhi Shan.

He must kill him to avenge Li Ruolan and Lu Zhen!

That way, he would be able to return the favor for Li Ruolan and Lu Zhen. With gratitude and grudges cleared up, he would no longer be struck by conscience or feel burdened for taking down the Holy Church of Light.

Harboring murderous intent, he was in high spirits and full of vigor. His perception of the world suddenly looked different. The world in his eyes was not the same as before!

The two middle-aged men who were sitting on the outside boulder and keeping watch exchanged glances in amazement.

As they were in close distance with Chu Li, his actions and expression were in plain sight. They noticed Chu Li smiling at each slight movement.

The earlier sense of being at a loss slowly disappeared. It was obvious he was going through major changes seeing as the feeling was completely different from when he first entered Yinyang Cave.

His body was swiftly growing weaker in the beginning, but it was now becoming stronger. They had never seen such conflicting progress.

Seven days had passed by now. Under normal circumstances, Zhao Dahe should have died from feebleness. No matter how tough a person was, they would not last seven days of Yin and Yang torture. From ashes to ashes, dust to dust, everything was bound to return to earth.

“I’ll go report to the Saint!” One of the middle-aged men cried in a low voice.

The other middle-aged man gently shook his head. “Let’s wait and see.”

This was extremely out of the norm. It was highly possible it was just a twilight before death.

Three days went by and they soon realized Chu Li flourishing with imposing grandeur. The former weakening was long gone. He quietly sat on the stone bed with solemnity. His face was flashing a peculiar smile as though the Yin and Yang energies could not affect him.

“I’ll report to the Saint!” One of the middle-aged men could not sit through any longer. He turned to leave Yinyang Peak.

Sun Mingyue, in a white tunic and veil over her face, appeared in front of Yinyang Cave.

At close encounter, her alarm bells set off, disallowing her to draw close.

She knew well not to come too close. There was no change to this Yinyang Cave as both Yin and Yang energies were still present and in there!

Her eyes measured Chu Li who was sitting on the stone desk with solemnity as though he had passed. She raised her voice, “Zhao Dahe!”

Chu Li opened his eyes and smiled. “Saint, is there anything I can do for you? Has the time passed?”

Sun Mingyue shook her head and took two steps back. “Are you able to withstand this?”

“Of course.” Chu Li smiled. “This place is a miracle!”

“… Do you need food?” Sun Mingyue asked.

People who stepped into Yinyang Cave did not require food as they would not be able to eat it even if it was given. Chu Li was the first to able to retain his consciousness. He was unaffected by the Yin and Yang energies, being able to keep a clear head to converse.

So it seemed he was able to survive. What a man of great fortune!

Chu Li shook his head. “No.”

“… Great.” Sun Mingyue waved her arm. “Then you’ll continue to remain there!”

She turned to leave Yinyang Cave.

Chu Li got down from the stone table to stretch himself out in the cave. He began to demonstrate a set of fist technique.

He pulled a punch, agile yet heavy. Several changes came about during this stunt. He tried converting the Yin and Yang energies through Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture. These Yin and Yang Energies were of their purest form. It would be great if he was able to contain them within his body and transfer to his cultivation level.

It was a pity he could not realize this thought. His current body was a bottomless bottle, unable to contain any inner energy.

Ultimately, it was due to the abstruse palm strike by Sun Mingyue. Even though it did not actually destroy his Dantian, it did do something to disable him from recovering.
