Chapter 559: Chapter 556 Transformation

```html

He realized early on that the cultivation techniques of the Taiqing Primordial Sect were overly domineering, resembling Demon Techniques in many ways.

As he delved deeper into cultivation, this thought became more intense and more certain.

The Heavenly Yuan Technique and Earth Origin Technique were fine, merely gathering the energy of heaven and earth.

The Human Element Skill at first glance appeared to be a Dual Cultivation Method, seeming gentle and harmless to people and animals.

It only appeared so.

In truth, it was still an extremely domineering absorption method.

With a slight change, it could directly absorb the essence, spirit, and qi from the other, just like gathering the energy of heaven and earth.

But compared to heaven and earth, humans are more mysterious, so the Human Element Skill is more exquisite.

Layer upon layer, there are nine layers in total.

It’s easy to absorb a person’s essence and qi, but absorbing their spirit is difficult, and it can even involve extracting the soul and Yuan Yang.

A small amount of Yuan Yang already relates to one’s lifespan.

If cultivated to the Ninth Layer, one could convert another’s lifespan into one’s own.

This is an oil-adding technique that defies the heavens.

This Human Element Skill is called a Forbidden Technique, not to be cultivated, seemingly because it harms the harmony of the heavens.

But Chu Zhiyuan felt that it involved deeper mysteries, relating to celestial secrets.

He, of course, did not want to practice this Forbidden Technique, but he wondered if such a domineering art could kill the Outer Heaven Demons.

If one could cultivate to extract souls, could the soul of an Outer Heaven Demon be directly extracted?

Once the soul is extracted, could the Outer Heaven Demon be killed?

At present, this was a method worth trying.

Under the Super Sensing Illumination, in the courtyard next door, Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue were practicing under the moonlight.

The two of them moved gracefully, like celestial maidens dancing alone in the Moon Palace.

Strips of moonlight fell onto them, almost tangible, wrapping their graceful figures in a layer of light gauze.

Increasingly ethereal like immortals.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head in admiration.

Their progress, driven by the moonlight, advanced rapidly, faster than his own cultivation speed.

The most crucial point is that even if they break through to Great Grandmaster, they can still continue to cultivate upwards.

Unlike himself, who had to grind painstakingly bit by bit, his progress was so slow it was despairing.

——

The next morning, he got up and practiced the Purple Sun Scripture once.

This had become a habit; without practicing, he felt uncomfortable.

Even with such training, the gains were minimal, not much different from not practicing.

Still, he practiced once.

He came to the small courtyard nearby.

The three women were in the midst of combat.

All of them were dressed in white combat uniforms, looking heroic and valiant, like three White Jade butterflies, fluttering and dancing.

Their jade palms flew, light and ethereal yet unusually swift.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, ”Let’s go, have breakfast outside.”

”Let’s go, for breakfast!” Shen Hanyue immediately responded excitedly, retreating lightly.

Xu Yingying drifted in front of Chu Zhiyuan, carrying a gentle fragrance, and smiled, ”What shall we eat?”

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, ”Yingying, do you have anything you want to eat?”

”I’ve heard there’s a lot of delicious stuff, Bao’s meat buns, Luo’s fish balls, Chen’s meat pies on West Street, all of them are a delight. We can savor them slowly, one per day.”

”Are they all delicious?” Shen Hanyue hastily asked.

Xu Yingying said, ”I’ve heard senior brother and senior sister both praise them highly.”

”Then hurry, let’s go.” Shen Hanyue said, ”Who knows if it’ll be crowded. If we go late and they pack up, it won’t be good.”

”Then let’s taste the delicacies of Tianjing City, let’s go.” Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile.

The three women went inside to change their clothes, each wearing a set of silk robes of different colors.

Their faces were covered with white gauze, hiding their unparalleled beauty, leaving only their bright eyes exposed.

The four of them left the Four Directions Pavilion and saw that outside, heavy guards had already been deployed to defend it.

The Imperial Guard was dispatched, making it impenetrable, not even allowing a bird to fly in.

Chu Zhiyuan and the others were not surprised, possibly also guarding against assassination by the Evil Sect’s cultists.

As the four of them left the Four Directions Pavilion, twelve City Guards immediately followed.

They wore dark green combat uniforms, draped with bright red cloaks, looking mighty and imposing.

They just followed Chu Zhiyuan and the others from a distance of twenty meters, neither too far nor too close, as if prepared to support and prevent an assassination at any moment.

”What’s this...” Shen Hanyue said curiously, ”Are they protecting us?”

Xu Yingying said, ”Is it to scare off the Evil Sect?”

”Useless,” Xiao Ruoling shook her head gently, ”The cultists of the Evil Sect won’t give up because of this.”

”Will they still come to die?”

”They’ll definitely come.”

”It’s a pity not to have encountered any top experts.”

If a few Great Grandmasters came, that would be genuinely thrilling, perhaps allowing oneself to reach perfection in the Sealing God Realm.

Right now, these nuisances, like flies, don’t bite but just irritate.

They’re purely disgusting.

”Great Grandmasters are very astute, they wouldn’t come to die so easily.”

Chu Zhiyuan shook the Golden Jade Heart Contract at his waist and shook his head, ”I wonder if the Evil Emperor Jade Pendant can lure them.”

The four of them chatted idly while walking out of the Four Directions Pavilion, heading towards the bustling main street.

From Chu Zhiyuan’s sleeves, four flying knives floated into the sky, suspended in the void, surveying the surroundings, ready to shoot out at any moment.

But to their surprise, not a single Evil Sect cultist charged out.

Chu Zhiyuan frowned.

This was somewhat strange.

Could the Evil Sect cultists have changed their nature?

He had originally been prepared to continue his killing spree, inciting public hatred towards the Evil Sect.

Under Insight, there were indeed Evil Sect cultists in the surroundings, yet they did not make a move, merely watching from afar, glaring coldly.

The murderous intent in their eyes was almost tangible, yet they restrained themselves.

Chu Zhiyuan was thoughtful.

”Strange, why not assassinate?” Shen Hanyue said curiously, ”Frightened?”

Xu Yingying snorted, ”How possible, could they be brewing a bigger assassination?... But the Evil Sect cultists don’t seem to have such strategic thinking.”

Most Evil Sect cultists act recklessly, killing straight and bluntly.

Chu Zhiyuan pondered, searching carefully.

He did not find the presence of a leader.

The experts of the Evil Sect were in small groups and did not have a true leader.

It seemed their original task had changed; instead of killing him, they were watching him.

Chu Zhiyuan could not be bothered, accompanying the three women to search for and savor the delicacies.

After they had eaten, they wandered around and then returned to their small courtyard.

Ma Tianhe had already returned, waiting outside the courtyard, greeted them with fists clasped, and was brought into the courtyard by Chu Zhiyuan.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Ma Tianhe said, ”Princely Heir, the handover is complete.”

”How is the situation?” Chu Zhiyuan asked.

”Lord Xu did an excellent job, the intelligence in Tianjing City is well-informed.”

”That’s good, find out as quickly as possible who has newly entered the Rain Listening Platform.”

”Yes!”

Chu Zhiyuan sighed, ”Looking at it now, there’s a change on the side of the Evil Sect, they’re trying to counter my moves.”

The Evil Sect wasn’t just sitting back to be slaughtered, they were constantly adapting.

Who knows what their next move would be.

Ma Tianhe fell silent.

The spies here could not help; there was no way to infiltrate the Evil Sect.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Lord Ma, be careful, don’t get caught.”

”Yes.” Ma Tianhe solemnly nodded.

He was already prepared for precautions.

Since Xu Jingwen had stepped down, he had become the chief of the spies here, naturally making the situation more dangerous.

However, historically, no chief of this level had ever been caught.

Various defenses were sufficient to protect himself.

Chu Zhiyuan thought for a moment, pulled out a flying knife from his sleeve and handed it to him, ”Carry this on you, should you face danger, drop blood onto the knife.”

Within a hundred-mile radius, he could use the flying knife to extend the reach of his Insight.

This should be able to protect him.

Ma Tianhe was overjoyed, ”Thank you, Princely Heir!”

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand, ”Use it only if it’s absolutely necessary; be careful yourself.”

”Yes.” Ma Tianhe’s heart felt settled.

Soon, news arrived from outside that two boxes of Venerable Statues had been delivered.
