Why is he the way he is now?

She was greatly puzzled and frowned slightly. In fact, her judgment was correct. If Yun Chu'an was still practicing the flawed version of the Pure Yang Technique that she had given him, then he would naturally be in great pain and completely powerless to resist the invasion of the Yin spirit.

Unfortunately, the cultivation technique he is currently practicing is not that one, but rather a top-quality one that he redeemed from the system shop.

The True Technique of Controlling Thunder in the Divine Firmament.

You Wensi was naturally unaware of all this, and feeling puzzled, she asked, "How are you feeling now?"

Yun Chu'an opened his eyes, a smile playing on his lips: "I feel great right now. After these Yin spirits entered my body, they have been continuously nourishing my meridians and improving my cultivation!"

"Thank you, Mother-in-law, for preparing such an auspicious place for me. I feel I have benefited a lot just from practicing my qi for a short while."

An excited expression appeared on his face, and he looked eager to try: "Once I've absorbed all the Yin spirits here, I might be able to break through to the late Foundation Establishment stage directly!"

He chuckled, but what he said made You Wensi feel as if she had swallowed a fly.

This is to prepare you for proper cultivation!

I'm planning to turn you into a zombie!

She was annoyed, but then she took a deep breath and silently comforted herself.

As expected of someone with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, what was once just speculation is now almost certain that he is indeed one of those legendary gifted individuals!

Although this sounds absurd, the Heavenly Spiritual Root is even more absurd. Calm down, calm down, this is a normal phenomenon, we should accept it, and even be happy for him.

After all, all of this will soon be mine...

Chapter 416 You are Li Changsheng?!

You Wensi silently muttered to herself, then forced a smile, nodded, and said, "That's fine then. I'll give you a futon. You can meditate there and get used to it."

"That way, when the extreme yin spiritual energy comes later, you will be able to hold on for longer and have a better chance of holding on until the moment extreme yang is born, thus completing the miracle of yin-yang reversal!"

She fanned herself in this way, then took out a futon woven from the fibers of a locust tree branch and continued forward, placing it at the core of the Corpse-Nourishing Valley formation.

Yun Chu'an followed her, seemingly without any suspicion. He sat down on the futon, cross-legged, and began to meditate.

Instantly, the vast and mighty Yin spirits that You Wensi had painstakingly accumulated over thirty years surged and converged throughout the valley, gathering around him and forming a massive vortex in mid-air, which then poured into his body.

As a living person, he should have been rapidly transforming into a dead person, with his body temperature dropping, his breathing weakening, his heartbeat slowing, and his skin turning deathly pale, ultimately hanging on the line between life and death, waiting for the so-called miracle of "extreme yin giving rise to extreme yang" to appear.

However, everything changed at this moment. The Yin spiritual energy that entered his body immediately vanished without a trace, like a mud ox sinking into the sea. Then, the righteous and peaceful spiritual energy around him surged and swirled, wave after wave, making his aura rise steadily and become increasingly powerful!

Watching this scene, You Wensi remained silent, but her heart burned with anxiety. She sensed that midnight was fast approaching, and if Yun Chu'an couldn't enter the "living dead" state before then, the corpse refining process couldn't proceed normally!

Damn it, in the end we still have to resort to force?

There was no other way. Although doing so might damage the quality of his spiritual root, the Heavenly Spiritual Root was so special...

That's all we can do!

Seeing that she couldn't achieve the desired effect, she grew increasingly impatient. When the most yin moment arrived, and the yin energy within the canyon reached its peak, she finally lost all patience. She raised her hand and chanted a spell, sending the incantation into his mind: "Soul-Splitting, Consciousness-Severing!"

Just like she did to the yellow python demon a few days ago, at this moment, she intended to use a spell to make Yun Chu'an dazed and unable to control his spiritual power and body.

She played it very casually because the power of this spell was too strong. Even a snake demon in the Golden Core stage couldn't withstand it. Therefore, in her opinion, Yun Chuan, who was only in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, was even less likely to be able to do it.

However, Yun Chu'an, who was sitting cross-legged opposite him and seemed completely unprepared, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment.

His eyes were sharp as knives, his black pupils fixed on You Wensi in front of him. For a moment, the latter felt as if a steel knife was slicing across her neck, about to shred her soul!

This wasn't entirely her imagination. When she finished the incantation, the spiritual power she unleashed struck Yun Chu'an's consciousness, and for a moment it was as if tofu had hit a blade, instantly being cut into pieces, leaving little power behind.

Yun Chu'an, however, remained clear-eyed, staring into her eyes with a calm and unhurried tone: "Mother-in-law, what are you doing?"

His voice gradually became serious, while You Wensi's brow twitched.

She instinctively jumped back, creating distance between them, her expression wary, and said in a low voice, "You were prepared?"

The moment she made her move, the two sides had already broken off relations. With her understanding, she immediately realized that Yun Chu'an had been wary of her from the very beginning!

As expected of someone with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, they are indeed intelligent and possess such insight!

On the prayer mat, Yun Chu'an slowly stood up: "One should always be wary of others, Mother-in-law. I'm not targeting anyone, but..."

His gaze was sharp as a knife as he stared at her: "I can only say that your plans are exactly as I expected."

In the pitch-black canyon, he stood upright, surrounded by endless evil spirits, as if at this moment, he was the true master of this place.

You Wensi stared at him with a frosty expression, but after a moment, she suddenly smiled.

"Ridiculous," she said. "You're still wary of me? Can you even keep your guard up?"

As she spoke, she took a step forward.

With that step she took, boundless spiritual energy surged around her. The spiritual energy fluctuations befitting a Golden Core cultivator manifested, wave after wave, making Yun Chu'an's mere mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation seem like a pond before a vast ocean!

“There’s no denying you’re incredibly talented,” she said, “but you seem to never consider just how vast the difference is between us!”

“Considering all the troubles you’ve caused for the family over the past two years, I originally intended to give you a dignified and peaceful death. In fact, if I were to reach the pinnacle of my life in the future, I might even give you a chance to be resurrected.”

Her eyes held a mocking glint: "It's a pity you didn't choose this path of comfort; then what awaits you is only an excruciating death!"

After she finished speaking, she casually flicked her hand, and immediately several pale, ghostly spirits behind her screamed and roared as they rushed forward, attacking Yun Chu'an from all sides. They opened their blood-red mouths, revealing sharp teeth, ready to devour his flesh and tear his soul apart!

She didn't think the man in front of her posed any threat; killing him was enough in her eyes!

To this, Yun Chu'an smiled gently: "I already knew that."

He stood with his hands behind his back, like a sturdy pine tree, completely unafraid, letting the pale, evil spirit rush towards him.

Just as the first demon's gaping maw was about to bite into his body, a blinding golden lightning suddenly erupted from his body—

"what--!"

In an instant, the shrill screams of the evil spirits echoed throughout the canyon, and golden lightning illuminated the entire canyon. The Yin spirits that had been suppressed here for over thirty years were instantly turned upside down, and You Wensi, standing in front, suddenly changed color: "What?!"

The sudden lightning strike caught her completely off guard, and her brain almost shut down on the spot!

On the other side, Yun Chu'an summoned his Guan Dao, his body surrounded by lightning. Looking at the shocked You Wensi from a distance of a hundred meters, he said loudly, "Look at me like this, don't you think I look familiar?"

As he spoke, he unleashed his power to its maximum, with boundless lightning surging around him. Golden lightning formed a massive exoskeleton that enveloped his body, instantly transforming him into a skeletal giant over ten meters tall, looking down at You Wensi below.

Looking at that familiar figure, You Wensi's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.

"Li Changsheng?!"

She uttered his alias, each word almost choked with rage: "The one who sabotaged my Corpse-Driving Sect's grand plan outside the tomb of Marquis Qin Hai in Zhongmu City was you?!"

Yun Chu'an looked down at her. The more than ten-meter-tall Thunder Bone Giant raised the Guan Dao in his hand, which was entirely formed from lightning. The rumbling thunder replaced his voice, echoing in the canyon, answering her question: "It is me. If I didn't still care about Qi Qiao, I would have led people into the tomb that day and taken all your heads!"

He uttered such arrogant words in an attempt to provoke the woman. This tactic was quite effective; You Wensi, already somewhat panicked by the sudden turn of events, became even more unable to control her emotions upon hearing this.

She could only let out a cold laugh, forcibly concealing her shock: "Arrogant brat, you've become so conceited after mastering some strange skills that you don't know who you are. You know nothing about true power!"

Her anger was uncontrollable, and she cursed him incessantly in her heart.

You arrogant fool! When I was at my peak, I could easily crush countless people with your level of cultivation. Even if my cultivation has declined now, you're still not someone who can fool me!

Chapter 417 The Half-Naked You Wensi

It has always been us cultivators from sects who challenge and even kill enemies of higher levels. It has never been anyone else's turn, let alone a rogue cultivator like you challenging us of a higher level!

Just you wait, I have at least nine different ways to kill you!

You Wensi's eyes blazed with fury as she slowly rose into the air, looking down at the man below. She cried out, "Thousands of vengeful spirits, heed my command!"

As soon as she uttered that word, the extremely yin spiritual energy within the canyon surged. The spiritual energy collided and swirled with each other, and following her guidance, pale ghostly faces of men and women, some weeping and some angry, appeared in mid-air, circling around Yun Chuan's golden bone giant. Suddenly, they opened their blood-red maws, found the weakest point on his body, and bit down hard!

In response, Yun Chu'an brandished his Thunder Blade and simply swept it across, shouting, "Get lost—!"

His furious curses were like thunderclaps, shaking the entire canyon. As the golden lightning of pure Yang swept across the sky, the numerous ghostly faces, filled with intense resentment, instantly screamed and exploded, pulverized into the finest spiritual energy, no longer posing any threat!

With this slash, the air crackled and exploded, and countless vengeful ghosts perished, annihilated without a trace!

In mid-air, You Wensi watched all this, her heart aching as if it were bleeding. These yin spirits and vengeful ghosts were the result of her hard work over the years, and they were the foundation of the yin energy in this canyon. After all, to cultivate a powerful and aggressive zombie, one needs the malevolent energy and resentment of these ghosts.

However, at this moment, Yun Chuan thought to herself that all these demons and monsters had been swept away, and at least half of her thirty years of hard work had vanished into thin air and gone to waste.

How could she not be heartbroken?

How could she not be angry?

But before she could vent her anger for long, the more than ten-meter-tall skeletal giant in front of her strode forward, its halberd crackling with lightning, and slashed down at her head—

You Wensi retreated, trying to dodge, but at that moment, the bone giant suddenly shrank in size, and endless lightning gathered around Yun Chuan'an, empowering his body to suddenly move forward and transform into a stream of light!

Three thousand springs!

This was his true killing move; the thunderous blade was aimed directly at You Wensi's throat, about to sever her head!

"?!"

Caught off guard, You Wensi immediately rolled to dodge. But just as she dodged the first strike, Yun Chu'an transformed into a bolt of lightning, and the second strike followed immediately!

Having broken through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, Yun Chuan'an's spiritual energy reserves and physical endurance have both greatly improved. After activating "Three Thousand Springs," he will not suffer too much pressure in the short term. Therefore, at this moment, he abandons all worries and tries his best to exert his power to the maximum, only hoping to defeat this woman as soon as possible!

"hateful--!"

You Wensi cursed under his breath and had no choice but to dodge again, feeling extremely embarrassed.

Her body also became a blur in mid-air, dodging and weaving at near-sonic speeds, hundreds of meters per second, trying to shake off Yun Chu'an.

However, with the dragon clan's lightning magic enhancing his abilities, Yun Chu'an's speed could even surpass the speed of sound. His second strike missed, but that didn't matter. After rushing a hundred meters into the distance, he suddenly turned back at a sharp angle, his guan dao (a type of halberd) crackling with lightning as it struck down once more—

This time, with her breathing already somewhat disordered, You Wensi could no longer truly dodge—

scoff-

"what--!"

She landed awkwardly, dodging the attack, but the blade still struck her back. The protective magic artifact glowed with a jade-like radiance around her, but a deafening thunderbolt destroyed everything in an instant, the sharp blade slicing through her brocade robe!

Instantly, with a piercing sound of tearing fabric, the protective brocade robe was ripped open. The woman was immediately exposed to him in a semi-naked state. She hurriedly reached out to cover her clothes, but inevitably, her private parts were exposed.

Large sections of fabric fell down her back, exposing her smooth, flawless back and slender waist. Further down, her full, pert buttocks were also faintly visible, swaying as she dodged away, revealing more and more of them.

She walked away in tattered clothes, her eyes filled with shock as she looked up at Yun Chuan. But when she saw the fleeting look of amazement in his eyes, and realized that he had probably seen most of her body, a strong sense of shame rose in You Wensi's heart, urging her to abandon her previous thoughts.

Originally, I planned to kill you and then give your body to Qi Qiao as a toy, so that she wouldn't be too heartbroken.

But now, there's probably no need to worry about her feelings at all.

Her heart was filled with turmoil. Gazing at Yun Chu'an in the distance, she suddenly called out, "Come out!"

As soon as she shouted this, the ground below suddenly began to undulate!

Yun Chu'an felt the ground beneath his feet begin to shake. He glanced down and saw long, slender arms suddenly reaching out from the soil, grabbing at his ankles.

Those pale, filthy arms covered in mud were undoubtedly the flesh of zombies. Before their fingertips even touched his body, they were first jolted numb by the golden lightning surrounding him. Yet, under You Wensi's urging, these zombies still surged out of the ground one after another, rushing towards Yun Chuan's body!

Then, as they lunged forward, their bodies began to swell and bulge, as if some power was brewing within them, and then—

It exploded suddenly!

The chilling aura hidden within the corpse expanded and erupted in all directions, the life-devouring death energy instantly covering his body. Even though Yun Chu'an used his lightning magic to barely keep it at bay, what followed was a second, a third, and even four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or even ten self-destructing zombies, who, under You Wensi's command, pounced on him one after another.

Left with no other choice, in the end he could only retreat temporarily to avoid their sharp edge.

The ragged You Wensi chanted incantations, directing the zombies to continue their pursuit. Her heart was bleeding. These corpses were special; she didn't intend to turn them into zombies, but rather to let them lie eternally beneath the earth, serving as the foundation of this Corpse-Raising Valley, fertile soil, and then nurture new zombies from within them.

However, at this moment, she had no choice but to summon these corpses that she had planned to bury again, dig them up, and use them in battle!

This is equivalent to uprooting the entire Corpse Valley. The moment the first zombie broke through the soil, all her hard work over the past few decades could be declared destroyed!

You Wensi's heart was bleeding and filled with rage, and these emotions only fueled her madness!

I have nowhere left to retreat. The only way to salvage the situation is to arrest Yun Chu'an and completely absorb his Heavenly Spiritual Root!

Her eyes were fixed ahead as she angrily cursed at Yun Chu'an: "You fool who's courting death! You have no idea how powerful the Corpse-Driving Sect is, or how powerful I am, who can command all these zombies at the same time!"

"Even if you are exceptionally talented, how could you possibly withstand ten or twenty enemies of the same level launching a series of suicidal attacks against you? You arrogant and ignorant fool, your death was destined from the very beginning!"

She shouted these words, trying to extinguish his will and confidence to resist. But Yun Chu'an only smiled lightly, and although he was still dodging, he showed no mercy in his words: "Well said! Then tell me, why was the Corpse-Driving Sect still wiped out by the Qingyun Sect?"

You Wensi was speechless. These words truly stung the scars she least wanted to face, making her feel as if she had been choked, unable to utter a single useful word.

Chapter 418 My wife gave it to me!

But immediately, You Wensi became furious and glared at Yun Chuan, gritting her teeth: "You will taste all the most painful ways to die in the world that my Corpse Driving Sect has to offer!"
