Cultivation through Skin Making

Red Thunder struck the Dragon Bone, melting it, and enveloping Changwang's Evil Treasure; the forging seemed to be proceeding smoothly.

The Red Thunder inherently eradicates evil souls, causing the Chang ghosts to either hide or be extinguished, reducing the binding power of Changwang's Evil Treasure, while the Dragon Bone stimulated the Yin Yang Profound Dragon, temporarily boosting its power.

Suddenly, the Yin Yang Profound Dragon erupted, launching a counterattack, devouring all the remaining Chang ghosts from Changwang's Evil Treasure. The ghost Tang Changsheng secretly attacked, and you died… returning life force]

Song Yan opened his eyes, gazing at the sky where the purple lightning had not yet descended.

To be honest.

In such a situation, his heart was already as calm as still water.

Immediately, he began many attempts again.

Soon, he understood the current situation:

Tang Changsheng, as the "Chang ghost," indeed made progress because ninety-nine percent of what he said was true, whether Celestial Dao Characters or Artifact Casting Method, all true. This was also his adherence to the power of the "Chang ghost."

However, the Changwang's Evil Treasure was merely a "half Celestial Dao Characters" level treasure. Tang Changsheng, being of the same level, naturally had the spare effort to secretly hide that one percent of scheming from the "Chang ghost" influence.

And that one percent of scheming was sufficient to aid the Yin Yang Profound Dragon in breaking free, allowing it to ultimately counterattack.

Of course, the information Tang Changsheng concealed was not just this.

Another was his method of merging with the Yin Yang Profound Dragon.

Normally, someone like Su Yao, forced to merge with the Nine-Child Demon Mother, was completely parasitized, and once separated, they completely recovered.

But the merging between Tang Changsheng and the Yin Yang Profound Dragon seemed more like an equal partnership, already completely fused into one entity, sharing glory and disgrace.

Thus, when Tang Changsheng was kneeling to beg for mercy, it was actually a strategic retreat to help his other half.

Song Yan reviewed the process once.

If he did not possess Heaven-Reaching Wisdom, even though his caution might not lead to his death by surprise attack, he would most likely be forced to "restart a game," and then, at a disadvantage, have another showdown with the Yin Yang Profound Dragon and Tang Changsheng, resulting in either a Pyrrhic victory or a retreat.

'Even in this situation, not giving up and still able to turn the tables, truly...

Alas, how could I not prefer someone like An Li, a simple girl like Xiaoxiao?'

Dealing with these old things, it's truly exhausting.'

At this moment, the dark clouds parted as a streak of purple lightning fell from the sky, illuminating the world in a flash of stark whiteness, casting Song Yan's face half in light, half in shadow.

The thunderclouds wouldn't last long, and he had this brief moment to refine the artifact.

However, he wasn't anxious, instead, he began to ponder.

He tried possibility after possibility.

But the result was failure after failure.

Until the thunderclouds dispersed, he still couldn't find a feasible method.

Song Yan continued to think.

Thus, days passed in the blink of an eye.

After hundreds of failures, the outcome finally changed.

[You successfully refined the Yin Yang Profound Dragon, Tang Changsheng. Changwang's Evil Treasure combined with the Nine Dragons Locking Earth Array to form a flying sword; the sword's quality has reached the peak of Divinity Transformation, but it still falls short of the Profound Yellow Realm.]

'Profound Yellow Realm?'

Song Yan encountered this term for the first time.

Before this, he hadn't even heard of it, let alone seen it.

'If the Profound Yellow Realm is beyond the reach of even the Divinity Transformation Realm, then... this realm should correspond to the Master of Heaven and Earth, right?'

'Sure enough, the Master of Heaven and Earth is nothing more than a powerful cultivator, just like an ancient emperor in my world wasn't some destined being, but merely a mortal who ascended to a high position.'

'Do kings and ministers come by nature? One day, I might become the Master of Heaven and Earth. I just hope that by then, I can continue to enjoy good days.'

Song Yan looked up at the sky.

But now, the sky was clear, and the scorching summer sun fell from above.

He simply lay back lazily, grabbed a jar of fine wine from his storage bag, broke the seal, and began to drink with delight, thinking, "If only there were a young lady waiting with me, it'd be perfect."

He.

Was waiting for the next thundercloud.

While he could use the Gathering and Attracting Water Profound to bring rain, he couldn't condense lightning, therefore... he could only wait for the natural occurrence of Celestial Thunder.

If it didn't come this year, then he'd wait for next year.

...

...

Half a month later...

The sky suddenly changed.

Song Yan looked and showed joy, immediately sitting up and summoning Changwang's Evil Treasure.

The Melting Furnace and prayer beads appeared instantly.

The Yin Yang Profound Dragon connected its head and tail on top, looking angrily at Song Yan, then roared: "Do not let me out, or I'll first devour that traitor Tang Changsheng, and then devour you!"

Song Yan smiled, in the next moment, he voluntarily put away the Melting Furnace and prayer beads, releasing the Yin Yang Profound Dragon.

The Yin Yang Profound Dragon was expecting Song Yan to insert the Dragon Bone and refine it, having prepared for all subsequent counterattacks, waiting in silence, secretly accumulating strength, just waiting for this desperate struggle, to turn the tables.

But...

Why was it released?

This???

The Yin Yang Profound Dragon floated bewildered in mid-air.

But only for a moment, it reacted, and Song Yan took the next step, revealing his form with three heads and four arms.

Each of the three souls controlled a head, having raised three corpses before, these three souls each had independent judgment abilities.

At this moment, the evil corpse controlling the Nine-Child Demon Mother Lock instantly mobilized Celestial Demon Power, releasing the Nine-Child Demon Mother Lock.

Five shackles of gray light shot out, wrapping tightly around the Yin Yang Profound Dragon, clashing with its body surface's Divine Thought Power, producing a strange sound that made one's divine soul tingle.
