“Everyone knows, as a qualified sect leader, you need to dabble in various peak duties.”
Qin Dajiao crossed her arms, looking oh-so-impressive.
“So, I also have a basic understanding of the methods of the Yin Yang Hall.”
“The Yin Yang Hall emphasizes that solitary yin cannot breed and solitary yang cannot thrive; only when yin and yang intersect can you achieve completeness. This relates to what Tian Miao just mentioned about extremes leading to reversals and the antithesis bringing forth balance, especially when I see the two of you.”
“What does that have to do with anything?”
Ke Mo exhaled a warm puff of breath, trying to maintain seriousness while also being baffled.
Qin Yuzhi, being the ancient leader of the Huan Shen Sect, undoubtedly knew many jaw-dropping secrets, but her memory seemed a bit off—sometimes on the mark, sometimes not.
Listening to this profound talk of extremes and reversals, it was clear the secrets involved were not simple.
Ying Bing also perked up, giving her full attention.
Qin Yuzhi was quite pleased with their eager-to-learn expressions:
“You must know the fourteenth generation leader of the Yin Yang Hall, who is two generations back from me as the sect leader… well, odds are, you don’t know them…”
“Before this person, the Yin Yang Hall was rather weak, because the path of Yin and Yang can be seen as one road, or two—men can only practice the yang path, and women can only practice the yin…”
“Ahem!”
Ke Mo’s expression changed slightly as he coughed awkwardly.
Alright now, Leader Qin’s mouth is blabbing away, and if she isn’t careful, she’ll make quite the shocking revelation.
This kind of talk isn’t exactly healthy for young people’s mentality, you know!
“My memory isn’t exactly stellar, so please don’t interrupt me randomly.”
With a huff, Qin Yuzhi continued, switching to a different explanation:
“Men are inherently yang, while women are yin—they can only cultivate one path of either yin or yang, unable to achieve the union of the two. Thus, the Yin Yang Hall has not produced a seventh-stage saint for a long time.”
“Then that person appeared! He was an extraordinary genius of the Yin Yang path, reaching the sixth-stage law body in a remarkably short time, mastering a rare pure yang martial arts style, but he suffered from the trouble of solitary yang not lasting.”
“So, he began to enter a deadlock, seeking a breakthrough. After sitting there for three whole months, he actually managed to produce a transformation!”
“That was reaching the unity of ultimate yang and yin! After honing the pure yang path to its peak, he became a woman!”
“??? Wait a minute?”
Ke Mo felt a chill run down his back, unable to help but interrupt: “So, are you saying I could possibly…?”
Qin Yuzhi rolled her eyes: “Put away your worries; you’re still far off. You’re just a bit fiery, at most.”
Ke Mo breathed a sigh of relief: “Oh, I see.”
Qin Yuzhi returned her gaze and continued:
“Later, she became the next leader of the sect, and afterward, she honed the ultimate yin path to perfection, achieving the return of pure yin giving rise to yang, hence transforming back.”
“She even staged a drama where the old leader was framed and imprisoned, enduring hardships for a comeback, ultimately defeating the usurping demoness and returning victorious.”
“If I hadn’t delved into her dreams, I wouldn’t have known that these two leaders were actually the same person…”
At this, Qin Yuzhi shivered as if remembering something unsavory.
Ying Bing: “…..”
Tian Miao: “…..”
Ke Mo: “…..”
This stuff is crazier than wild history! If such talents keep popping up, it’s no wonder the Huan Shen Sect has fallen from once managing the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths into a state where everyone wants to hit them!
“You’re not suggesting we learn those methods, right? I’m definitely not interested.”
Ke Mo made her refusal clear.
Qin Yuzhi paused her exclusive mug momentarily and said with irritation:
“Look at you, so eager! Just let me finish my story first! Does this not need a proper conclusion?!”
“…..”
Why not start from the very beginning of the universe instead…
Li Mo internally complained, but still cupped his hands, motioning for her to continue.
“Hmph! Afterward, this person governed both the ultimate yang and the ultimate yin paths, but they remained two separate paths. So, he fell deep into research on how to unify them.”
“In the end, he actually found a method—it was dual cultivation! He created a technique for shared cultivation between men and women, harmonizing yin and yang!”
“Ah?”
Li Mo was dumbfounded.
What the heck? That’s basically the founder of the He Huan Sect!
“Put away that not-so-honest look; that’s indeed a legitimate method that expounds on the wonders of yin and yang.”
“It fits your current situation perfectly! Hmph, ordinary folks would need special opportunities just to learn such secret teachings!”
With a snap of her fingers, two dreamlike illusions flew out from her sleeves, entering Li Mo and Ying Bing’s foreheads.
Understanding surged forth—Ying Bing furrowed her brows at first, but then slightly relaxed.
This was indeed a legitimate, mystical teaching.
Of course, it required the practitioner to maintain a clear mind.
Clear mind…hmm, well, she was fine on that front.
She glanced at Li Mo and found him eager to learn, his gaze firm; anyone would say he’s a paragon of virtue.
“…..”
“Wow… this is indeed impressive. Anyone who could create such a method must be extraordinarily gifted.”
After absorbing the teachings from the illusions, Li Mo curiously asked:
“So how did he step down and hand over the sect to you?”
Qin Yuzhi found that question a bit rude; she fell silent for a moment before replying:
“He strayed down the wrong path. First, a lot of folks sought to flip yin and yang upside down—starting with some eunuchs from the palace, then later even some people wanting to experience a different life came looking for him, which violated the law.”
“Ah?”
The road of crime is indeed a wrong path…
“Secondly, there’s no good or evil in laws, but people bring their own morals. Then some individuals, in pursuit of efficiency, gradually lost sight of their true selves, neglecting the harmonious dual cultivation beneficial to both sides, opting instead for the crooked path of selfish gain.”
“In short, later the Yin Yang Hall not only failed to maintain balance but instead caused chaos—some concubines even ended up pregnant with eunuchs’ illegitimate children. In the end, the current emperor was furious and stripped him of his position.”
“… why does it feel like this was mainly a palace issue?”
“Ultimately, he left with a group of loyalists, starting something… oh right, the He Huan Sect.”
“Pfft…”
Li Mo nearly choked on his snow spirit ginseng, almost coughing it up.
So the founder of the He Huan Sect is really this guy!
Meaning that this dual cultivation technique essentially originated from the He Huan Sect’s founder…
Li Mo scratched his neck and glanced over at Ying Bing.
Ying Bing’s expression was as cold as ice, unyielding.
If you ignore her lightly trembling eyelashes and the wailing doll in her hands, the Cold Fairy looked perfectly focused.
