Chapter 1016 Entering the battle
She spoke softly, but the old man shuddered involuntarily, remembering the pain of his thigh being twisted off. He cursed in his heart,
"These two girls are so vicious. If they really eat one arm and one leg at a time and then let me grow them back, I will either die or go crazy with the pain!"

Thinking of this, the ghost-like old man immediately responded,

"You must be here for the Nine-turn Yin-Yang Point. I'll tell you what you want to know. But after you've accomplished your mission, you must let me go!"

Pu Yanlan didn't say anything, but Gu Shiyi pretended to slap her in the face. The old man immediately raised his hand and said,

"Please let me go. I am thousands of years old after all. You two youngsters should learn to respect the elderly!"

Gu Shiyi rolled his eyes and withdrew his hand.
"Okay, just tell us what we know honestly, and we won't make things difficult for you!"

The old man sighed, looked at the two of them and said,

"I have been eyeing this Nine-transformation Yin-Yang Point for thousands of years, but I have never been able to obtain it. I am almost in despair. If you can really obtain it, I will have one less thing to worry about!"

It is said that the old man who is more ghost-like than a ghost is named Shi. Shi Erdao, he was a cultivator in the world of the living, and he had been cultivating until he reached the stage of refining emptiness. Everything went smoothly. However, after reaching the stage of refining emptiness, it was extremely difficult for him to absorb a large amount of spiritual energy in the world where he practiced and break through to the next level. Shi Erdao had the same idea as Gu Shiyi and the others, and planned to go to another world through the underworld. Therefore, he asked another fellow ghost cultivator for advice. That fellow ghost cultivator taught him various techniques, including the technique of changing ghosts.

Shi Erdao's luck was a bit bad. He went to several worlds through the underworld, but the spiritual energy in those worlds could not support his advancement. After wandering for hundreds of years, he accidentally discovered this Nine-Transformation Yin-Yang Point...

Pu Yanlan raised her eyebrows.
"Nine-turn Yin-Yang acupoint?"

Shi Erdao sighed and said,

"You also know that Yin and Yang will transform. When the time comes, Yin turns to Yang, and Yang turns to Yin in just a breath. There are several points in the underworld where Yin and Yang converge, and this is one of them..."

The yin and yang energy was separated from the chaotic energy of heaven and earth, and in this place where yin and yang gathered, there was a trace of chaotic energy. When heaven and earth changed and yin and yang interacted, it was this trace of chaotic energy that could turn the world around. When Shi Erdao discovered this place, he was ecstatic.

"If I can absorb this trace of chaotic energy, I will be able to reach the fusion stage!"

So he disguised himself as a ghost and stayed in the underworld.

"I wanted to enter the Nine-turn Yin-Yang Point, but I couldn't find the way. I was unwilling to leave like this, so I stayed there year after year, century after century, thousand after thousand, and unknowingly stayed there for nearly four thousand years..."

Four thousand years!

Even among the high-ranking monks, there are not many who have lived for four thousand years!

His life span was about to end, but he had no way to obtain the chaotic energy. He watched his cultivation shrink little by little, and his realm drop little by little. Even if he gave up at this moment, left the underworld and returned to the world of the living, he could only wait for death quietly. It would be better for him to stay here and hold on to this illusory hope...

Shi Xundao smiled bitterly, and cast his eyes towards the stone nest that was still dripping with water from the rock wall.
"I have never been able to get in..."

Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan looked down at the rock wall. There was a two-foot-tall black rock. Because of the years of dripping water, a basin-sized depression had been created on the rock surface. Each drop of water fell slowly, dripping...

That Shixun said,
"Wuyou Ridge is a place where yin and yang transform. At the head of the ridge, yin hides yang, and at the tail of the ridge, yang hides yin. But here, it is neither yin nor yang. There were no yang and yin silkworms at the head of the ridge. It was only two thousand years ago that a silkworm was born from it. When it grew up a little, I tried my best to fish it out, so that its yang energy can dissolve the yin energy in my body that has lived in the underworld for a long time, so as to extend my lifespan..."

You have to know that if you stay in the underworld for too long, no matter how profound your Taoism is, you will not be able to resist it. He had been taking elixirs before, but fortunately, a yin-yang silkworm was bred here later...

After all these years, the Yin-Yang Silkworm has become slightly more intelligent, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to lure it out. Shi Erdao did not expect that these two cultivators could lure it out of the Yang Cave with just a little trick. Fortunately, the two did not have the desire to monopolize the Yin-Yang Silkworm and put it back...

He naturally didn't know that Gu Shiyi was a real dragon. Although the Yin-Yang Spirit Silkworm was born in a yin place, it was of the Yang nature and liked pure Yang things the most. Although Gu Shiyi concealed her aura, it could keenly sense the real dragon aura on her body and had already quietly poked its head out to check, but it didn't expect that Pu Yanlan's magic weapon would catch it back...

"And in the pond at the end of the mountain, there is yin hidden in yang. There is a Yin bead there, but it has not yet taken shape, so you haven't noticed it... and here..."

Shi Erdao pointed to the rock wall that was still dripping with water.

"There is a naturally formed magic array in this rock wall, which seals the chaotic energy inside. This weak water is the magic array that absorbs the yin and yang energy. After a long time, half of the stone nest is filled up, and only one drop is produced every thousand years... I have tried every way to break through this rock wall and enter. I have been thinking about it for so many years, and I guess... If there is a way to take away all the weak water in this stone nest, then the naturally formed magic array must be able to break a gap, and maybe I can use this gap to enter..."

At this point he sighed again and said,
"What a pity... Weak Water is naturally neither yang nor yin, and is not in the Five Elements, which means it is not in the Three Realms... I can't think of anything that can contain such a thing..."

Shi Erdao smiled bitterly and said,

"I have read countless books in the past, and they also record that the three thousand weak waters need to be made of Mishan soil and the weak water needs to be stored in the vessels. However, Mishan is far away in the west. If I don't ascend, how can I get Mishan soil? Moreover, it takes a lot of natural materials and treasures to make it. How can I get this weak water?"

He pondered for many years in the underworld, and searched through all the collections he could find in the Soul Pavilion. He also tried every possible way to ask the ghosts and spirits that came and went in the underworld, but he did not find a way to absorb the weak water. However, he did ask a master of formations who came to reincarnate, and was invited by Shi Erdao to come here to take a look.
"This formation was formed naturally when the heaven and earth were first separated. Unless it is a god who created the heaven and earth, how can mortals like us break it..."

After the formation master looked at the formation, he thought for a long time and said to Shi Erdao,

“However, the world has its destiny. There is always one way out of the forty-nine ways. Although this formation is completely natural and cannot be broken, it will stagnate every hundred years. If you can take advantage of this stagnation to collect all the weak water, a crack will appear in the formation. You can enter it at this time, but... I don’t know what kind of experience you will encounter after entering this formation!”

After saying this, the formation master went to reincarnate, leaving Shi Erdao reluctant to give up this great opportunity. He had been waiting for the chance, but he didn't expect that Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan would come. He had kept this secret for so many years and was exhausted. Now he told it all to the two people in front of him, and he felt relieved.
"Alas... I still have a hundred years to live, so I guess there is no hope for me to ascend to heaven. If you have any ideas, please try them!"

After saying that, he waved his hand with a disheartened look on his face. Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan looked at each other. If that was the case, they would be in a bit of a pickle!
Pu Yanlan thought for a while and said,
"We don't have any equipment to store this weak water..."

Asked again,
"How long will it take for this magic circle to stagnate?" Shi Er asked.

"It's almost there, just a few days away. I originally wanted to take advantage of this time when the magic circle is stagnant and make one last effort. I will try to break through this magic circle even if my flesh and blood are dissolved by the weak water and my soul is scattered!"

Just a few days left!

Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan looked at each other.
"It's really better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early!"

The two of them looked towards the stone nest that was still dripping with water. Gu Shiyi's heart moved.
"Yan'er, didn't you say that Weak Water is not in the Five Elements, but in the Three Realms? Then what is this stone, and why can it hold Weak Water?"

Before Pu Yanlan could speak, Shi Erdao responded,
"That stone is a common stone in the underworld, but it is connected to a magic circle. With the power of the magic circle, it can naturally receive weak water... and this weak water originally overflowed from the magic circle, dripping out drop by drop, and then being absorbed back into the magic circle by this stone..."

Gu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and looked at Pu Yanlan. Pu Yanlan also frowned and glanced at Gu Shiyi.

"I think this place, which is neither yin nor yang, was formed by the drop of weak water. We cannot approach it, but you, Eleven, can..."

Gu Shiyi thought for a while,
"You mean you want me to swallow all this weak water..."

She tilted her head and thought about it.
"I'm not afraid of just one or two drops, but if I were to take up this large basin, I'm afraid my body wouldn't be able to handle it!"

Pu Yanlan rolled her eyes at her.
"What are you thinking... How could I let you take the risk..."

He glanced at Shi Erdao who was sitting dejectedly on the ground, and sent a message to Gu Shiyi,
"Didn't he say that the stone on the ground is just an ordinary stone from the underworld, with a very heavy Yin energy? You have a very strong and yang body, and you can use your blood and essence to dissolve the stone. As long as the stone can't withstand your yang energy and a crack appears, it can't hold the weak water dripping from it. As long as the weak water leaks out, the cycle of the magic circle will be broken, and the magic circle will have a flaw..."

Gu Shiyi's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Good idea!"

The best method will be used in a few days, when the magic circle stops...

So the three of them stayed here and meditated. Shi Erdao had already become disheartened, and being detained here by the two men he no longer thought of escaping, so he just sat cross-legged obediently and waited with the two men until five days had passed.

One day, the dripping sound suddenly stopped without any warning. The place where the three people were sitting cross-legged suddenly became silent. Shi Erdao suddenly opened his eyes.
"Stop! The magic circle has stopped... I have experienced this moment many times before. It only lasts for ten breaths!"

Gu Shiyi had already jumped up at this time, and rushed to the stone nest like a ghost. Pu Yanlan and Shi Erdao watched from behind her, and saw Gu Shiyi's figure flash, and the skin exposed outside began to turn from a healthy wheat color to a little paler, and in the blink of an eye, it turned from pale to gray, and it was fading away...

Gu Shiyi had already arrived in front of the stone nest. He raised his hand and squeezed out a drop of his own blood from his fingertips. He flicked it lightly.
"Snapped……"

With a slight sound, the drop of blood essence with golden light disappeared as soon as it touched the spot. Gu Shiyi did not dare to stand still. She stood on tiptoe and retreated as fast as lightning. Even though she retreated quickly, she could not help but stumble as soon as her feet touched the ground.
"Eleven...how are you?"

Pu Yanlan reached out to support her best friend, her face full of wrinkles and her black hair turning white. Gu Shiyi swallowed the pill with her palm turned over and said with a smile,
"It's okay. I've tried it before. I took a bottle of your flesh-regenerating elixir and I'll be back in no time..."

Shi Erdao on the side said coldly,

"Your Qi and blood can be restored, but the boundary between Yin and Yang will damage your life span. This will at least reduce your life span by two hundred years!"

Gu Shiyi smiled but said nothing, but heard a cracking sound from the direction of the stone nest. The three of them looked over and saw a small crack in the stone nest.
“Crack… snap…”

There were more sounds, and finally the entire black stone split into two halves. The weak water in the stone hole flowed down the crack, and instantly formed a hole the size of a washbasin.

"That's it now!"

Gu Shiyi's eyes lit up, and he reached out to pull Pu Yanlan, and the two figures immediately disappeared into the cave. When Shi Erdao saw the cave entrance, he was also in disbelief and ecstasy. He jumped up from the ground with trembling lips, and followed the two of them to the cave entrance.

"Whoosh..."

When his figure disappeared from the cave entrance, he saw the stone cave moving and closing up little by little.

"Snapped……"

A drop of weak water dripped down again, fell on the smooth stone surface, and splashed everywhere...

The three people in the cave were in darkness. They could only see about three feet in front of them, and their spiritual awareness could not reach three feet around them. Gu Shiyi glanced at Pu Yanlan beside him.
This situation seems familiar!

Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan had experienced this in the wordless stone tablet before. They both looked extremely calm, but Shi Erdao, who was standing beside them, looked surprised.

"Are we already in the magic circle?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan, but was horrified to find that the two of them suddenly took a step forward together and disappeared...

Shi Erdao was shocked and hurriedly chased after him. When he took a step forward, his feet suddenly felt empty and his body fell straight down...
