Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 478 Special Features: Extreme Yin

Now that he has cultivated the fourth level of true skill to perfection, he naturally has to use this power.

Of course, breakthrough enhancement catalysts are precious, and even though he is valued by Zhong Yunxiu, only one can be provided.

Therefore, if a disciple fails to break through on their first attempt, they will have to find a way to trigger a second breakthrough on their own.

Han Yi naturally wouldn't fail in his breakthrough attempt. The reason he wrote the application was simply to conceal the existence of the panel, as was customary.

After all, the real catalyst he used to break through to the fourth level was the breakthrough deduction based on the Yin energy on the panel.

He had already accumulated enough Yin energy to break through; what he lacked was the fourth level of Cold Yin Force, which was not yet complete.

Now that everything is ready, it's the perfect time. "So, the direction I need to strengthen is... still to enhance the cold aura of the Cold Yin Force!"

Han Yi slowly closed his eyes, and images of different demonic beasts flashed through his mind.

Nine-section wolf, Three-dangerous ice wolf lizard, black-striped white snake...

According to Zhong Han's explanation, different demonic beast catalysts will provide different attribute bonuses to the true skills of the fifth level.

However, there is a limit to this.

Absorb the essence and discard the dross, focusing on internal strength, absorbing the powerful characteristics of demonic beasts to enhance oneself...

The monster catalyst is essentially a foreign object to the human body's own systems.

Even a harmless fishbone can cause suffocation and death if a foreign object enters the body.

Not to mention, some monsters carry deadly poisons, some are unbearably cold, and some suffer from special diseases. All sorts of things that are extremely harmful to the human body may exist.

Just as recorded in ancient texts, this is a difficult process, and failure can occur if one is not careful.

The stronger the monster used as a breakthrough catalyst, the better the effect will be, and the greater the chance of it producing special characteristics.

Therefore, the more powerful the monster, the higher the failure rate will be in trying to digest and absorb its characteristics.

For this reason, Zhong Han recommended several different types of monsters to Han Yi, all of which were extremely cost-effective, easy to absorb, and had good potential.

However… Han Yi didn’t think much of it.

"By using Yin energy deduction, I can simulate those long-extinct demonic beasts, absorbing their characteristics as enhancement catalysts. Therefore, I don't need to be bound by the records in ancient texts, but can simulate those legendary myths and tales… So, what exactly is the most extremely cold existence…?"

Soon, he thought of an existence, a powerful being that only existed in myths and legends, passed down by word of mouth.

The tortoise and snake are intertwined, embracing yin and yang. The tortoise has the head of a dragon, the back of a turtle, and the tail of a qilin, while the black snake has the head of a dragon, the wings of a phoenix, and the body of a python, making them quite strange in appearance.

This is according to the stories told by the elders of his previous life, a powerful being who controls the harsh winter snow, known as the God of Winter, or the God of the North.

"Mythical beasts are still mythical beasts. If mythical beasts can be used as a starting point, there's no reason why legendary mythical beasts can't be used as a starting point..."

Han Yi made up his mind and made up his mind.

A chill ran through him as a large amount of Yin energy was rapidly consumed, generating a strange substance that combined to form a peculiar cold current that surged through his body.

Driven by this cold current, his internal energy was gradually refined and dispersed, forming countless energy factors with only their essence. Han Yi felt as if his entire body was in a glacier, extremely cold, and a large amount of the cold yin energy within his body was continuously transformed into a pure essence without any special characteristics. And because the dispersed cold yin energy was constantly replenished by the thick qi and blood within his body, it was being replenished.

As the cold yin energy continued to be generated and consumed, white vapors, resembling those heated at high temperatures, began to appear around him.

This was actually the cold aura that had unconsciously escaped from his body, causing the surrounding air to distort. The moisture, invisible to the naked eye, was frozen by the extreme cold, and then collided with the sunlight, resulting in the appearance of white cold air.

The cold Yin energy within Han Yi's body also began to change gradually. From being invisible and colorless before, it gradually compressed and solidified into white. At the core of his dantian, a small white vortex also faintly appeared and slowly rotated.

Extreme cold surged from his hands, so much so that the air around him could no longer withstand it; the white vapor disappeared and turned into tiny ice crystals.

Ice crystals crackled and fell to the ground from mid-air. "This temperature must be at least below zero..." Han Yi sighed inwardly as the panel frame slowly appeared before his eyes.

[Main Skills]: Cold Yin Nine-Bend Palm (True Skill Level 5, Cold Yin Strength, Characteristics: Extreme Cold, Exhausting Yin); Mending Heaven Technique (Level 5, Characteristics: Strengthening the Foundation, Returning to Origin, Endless Life)

"The new characteristic, Yin Qi... is actually the kind of function that can rapidly cool down the temperature to below zero..." Han Yi slowly raised his hands, and in the center of his palms, a small ball of pure white, snow-like ice and snow vortex condensed, constantly changing shape.

Near the vortex, the air is constantly being drawn away from the heat, turning into ice crystals that rotate with the vortex.

“Zhong Han once said that above the level of a martial arts master, one’s strength returns to its true form, becoming genuine strength, which then has form, color, substance, and matter. And my strength now seems to have acquired a bit of the nature of genuine strength… But unfortunately…” He sighed.

Actually, during the deduction just now, he felt that he could further deduce and strengthen the coldness of the Yin energy, but the Yin energy was insufficient, and he could only maintain the current state. "But it doesn't matter. The strength has been strengthened three times. As long as we continue to strengthen it in the coldness aspect, there will be another chance for the next strengthening." Han Yi had no regrets and stopped worrying about this flaw.

That's life, isn't it? Things can't always go as planned.

To be able to successfully break through to the fifth level of true skill and even faintly touch upon the changes at the grandmaster level is already an incredible stroke of luck.

However, it seems that when he goes from the fifth to the sixth level of True Skill, he needs to accumulate more Yin Qi in order to strengthen his power and push it to an even more powerful level.

In fact, having cultivated to this point, he has gained some in-depth understanding of the characteristics of internal force.

The characteristics are similar to the enchantments on weapons in the previous life; some increase sharpness, some increase durability, and some can enhance the bleeding effect.

If the same characteristic is repeatedly and continuously accumulated, a quantitative change will lead to a qualitative change. Or, to put it simply...

The explanation for the physical effects of martial arts techniques on the body is that they are similar to evolution.

Evolution, join the glorious evolution.
