Ball Ball Cultivation

If you can't transform, even if you become the city lord and have my support behind you, your lifespan will run out within a few years, so what's the point?"

"Everyone knows that once you become a living dead, you won't be able to advance further in your cultivation. I was given a technique in an abandoned underground palace that abolishes all cultivation. It's a technique created specifically for the living dead. However, when I subdue a wisp of fire, I will have a three-year period of weakness."

"I've discovered a treasure beneath the fire. This treasure can coexist under the Yin and Yang polar fires for a long time. As long as I get it, the sequelae of my taming the fire will be eliminated. This is the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint. If we get this treasure, we two may live forever. What's so rare about a city lord?"

Ren Zhixing's brainwashing skills were top-notch, and he quickly made the captain excited, saying that he would find out the truth as soon as possible.

Ren Zhixing was very satisfied with the result. "In another month, the Flame will enter its three-year weakening period. This is the list of materials I need to prepare when I subdue the Flame. Do you think you should subdue the Strange Fire? During this period of weakening, I want to go down and see for myself. This Yin and Yang Realm is a one-way trip, and I want to improve my cultivation so I can go out and see the world and not be trapped here anymore."

Captain: "Godfather, is it true that there is no return?"

Ren Zhixing: "Not really. It is said that hundreds of thousands of years ago, the spiritual energy and dark energy here were very rich. I am now in the Void Refinement Stage and can be the lord of a city. Those above the Void Refinement Stage spend a lot of time in seclusion and don't care about anything. At that time, Mahayana cultivators were everywhere, and people were crossing tribulations everywhere. There were often cultivators ascending to heaven. After ascending to heaven, they could leave this world normally."

Captain: "Do you know why?"

Ren Zhixing: "Our Yin-Yang Realm is located between the Yin and Yang realms. The balance of Yin and Yang is the true principle. The Yin and Yang polar fires are both weakening, the power of reincarnation is weakening, and the power supporting the operation of this realm is decreasing year by year. Our ancestors have been trapped in this realm for generations, and we don't know what is happening outside."

"Your aptitude is no worse than mine. I've at least reached the Great Perfection of Refining Void, but you can't even break through to the Refining Void realm. It's not because you're not good enough, but because the resources in this world are depleted. There are fewer and fewer people with the aptitude to cultivate immortality. Many cultivators who have reached the end of their lifespans have shed their bodies and transformed into ghost cultivators. This was not easy in the past. Even if a cultivator didn't enter reincarnation after death, he would turn into nothingness and be absorbed by this world. Now, with a little protection, he can be transformed into a ghost cultivator. I really can't understand the way this world is."

Captain: "Wouldn't it be better to become a ghost cultivator?"

Ren Zhixing: "A ghost cultivator must have the aptitude to be a ghost cultivator. Once separated from the body, there is no spiritual root to speak of. The path to becoming a ghost cultivator depends on whether the ghost soul has a cyclone, which is equivalent to a spiritual root. Without this cyclone, one can only take the path of evil ghosts, which is to directly devour other souls. This is a method of rapid advancement. Not to mention that this kind of advancement is prone to obsession and loss of mind. Even if one's consciousness is strong, even if one cultivates to the point of transcending tribulation and ascending, one will not be able to survive the thunder tribulation."

"It's recorded in the books collected by the City Lord's Mansion over the generations. So I'd rather be a conscious living dead than become a ghost cultivator, devouring so many souls that I don't know if they are still my own."

The captain, having learned all this, was even more cautious than before when he received the list for taming the strange fire. Qiuqiu took the opportunity to write it down and prepare everything.

After the captain left, Ren Zhixing simply bowed to the air and said, "I don't know which expert is here. If you need any help from me, please tell me directly. It's pointless to be so sneaky like this."

Qiuqiu was startled, unsure whether to come out and see. Ren Zhixing: "I've been sensing a divine consciousness around me lately, but it doesn't have any malicious intent. I wasn't sure at first, but just now I sensed a divine consciousness looking at the list I gave my son. After all, I've been a cultivator for thousands of years, so I don't think I'll be wrong."

Qiuqiu was exposed and his emotions fluctuated a little, which was noticed by Ren Zhixing. He immediately used his spiritual power to search closely in the direction of Qiuqiu, but still found nothing.

Seeing that he was still quite upright, Qiuqiu sent him a telepathic message: "I want to subdue a strand of Yin and Yang Fire. I was just looking at the list. I mean no offense to you. As for eavesdropping, I'm truly sorry."

Ren Zhixing: "Are you a human or a ghost?"

I don’t know how to answer Qiuqiu’s question. I am really just a human being, so it’s hard to say now.

Qiuqiu: "I am neither human nor ghost."

Ren Woxing: "In a month, I will go to the volcano myself. If you want to go with me, I naturally have no objection. If you find any secrets at the bottom of the volcano, I hope you will tell me everything."

He wanted to catch this elusive creature, but he needed the ability to do so. He had no idea what the enemy was capable of, so he was forced to be magnanimous. He had originally just told the secret to hook the fish, but once the fish was out, he couldn't catch it. He suspected it might be some old monster that had resurfaced.

Qiuqiu: "Thank you very much, I will tell you the truth."

The ball hid in the pendant's divine body and no longer produced any fluctuations.

She looked at her youngest son worriedly. Even if this Yin-Yang Fire received the fire, he would turn into a living dead. She was now in a dilemma. The origin of Xuanxi Palace was a mystery, but it was only recorded that the Yin-Yang Fire could completely suppress the Yin Dragon Body. If the result was that he would turn into a living dead and his cultivation would not make any progress in the future, then the Yin Dragon Body would definitely be useless. Isn't this obvious!

If one is unable to improve his cultivation like Ren Zhixing, then he will not be able to control the Yin-Yang polar fire.

For the sake of this fire, she sealed her son in the godhead, and went into the underworld, the Forgotten River, and the Yin and Yang realms. If her goal was still not achieved, she would be too sad to bear.

What Qiuqiu didn't know was that the main reason why she was able to have such a smooth journey in the underworld this time was that she had obtained Ji An Ning's heroine halo, which was even more rare than merit. With the protection of dragon energy from Xu Jin's soul fragment, she was already relatively safe in the underworld. With the addition of a protagonist halo, her actions went much more smoothly. However, once this halo was consumed, her future path of cultivation would be the same as before, with both danger and opportunity coexisting.

There are a lot of things that need to be prepared. Qiuqiu spent almost all the soul beads he got from the red-clothed female ghost before he prepared all the materials.

The rest of the time was spent in the underground palace library, where Ren Zhixing was. He had read all the information he had looked up when trying to tame the strange fire, but he still couldn't find a solution. Just when Qiuqiu was about to give up the search, he saw a few fragments of Ren Zhixing's handwritten notes. It explained that people with special constitutions were more susceptible to Yin and Yang polar fires, making them easier to tame.

Qiuqiu seemed to have spotted a guiding light in the vast ocean. He quickly flew back to Ren Zhixing and asked, "Palace Master, I saw in your notes that there is a special kind of living person who is easily attracted to the Yin and Yang polar fires. What kind of person is this? If a living person with this kind of body tames the strange fire, will he become a living dead?"
