Chapter 676: Everywhere It Passes, Nothing Can Grow
Specks of dust can accumulate to become stones, drops of water can accumulate to become an ocean.
Likewise, once a seed has sprouted, it can grow into a tree so tall that it touches the sky or even a large forest.
Fang Zhengzhi understood this well, and precisely because of that, he could truly comprehend the Heaven Dao and the Near-Life Dao, which is why he could use the Rebirth Plate.
But now…Now, he had a similar sentiment regarding Yin Yang.
In his previous life, he had had some theoretical understanding of Yin Yang. Simply put, Yin Yang is the foundation for all changes in nature.
The raw force behind all things, from conception, development, maturity and decline till death.
To summarize, it involves four relationships: The interaction between Yin and Yang, the genesis of Yin and Yang, the antagonism between Yin and Yang and that both Yin and Yang stem from the same root.
Its beginnings can be traced to the polarities that are prevalent in nature, but yet also closely related, such as the sky and land, the sun and the moon, day and night, cold and heat, man and woman, up and below, ice and fire, etcetera.
“Opposing, but stemming from the same root! Through control of the flow and rotation of one’s breath, one can divide one’s breath into two, forming Yin and Yang.”
Fang Zhengzhi was hit with this realization suddenly.This was an important reason why Wan Lei was able to absorb the breath of the Thousand Years Fire Herb that was inside his body.
Suddenly, Fang Zhengzhi felt like a huge door had opened in his heart.
“Yin Yang, that’s it!” Fang Zhengzhi had a strong urge to laugh, but his mouth was sealed tightly, and he was could not laugh.
However, he wasn’t someone who enjoyed being taken advantage of.
Previously, he had endured it, largely because he was unable to control the medicinal power of the Thousand Years Fire Herb, and he also did not have the ability to retrieve something that was lost.
But now…
Things were different.
Subconsciously, he also prepared to re-absorb the medicinal power of the Thousand Years Fire Herb that Wan Lei had absorbed into his body, but right at the moment when he was about to act, he stopped.
“That won’t do, if I use the same technique as Wan Lei, it is likely that we would be closely matched in terms of strength…” Fang Zhengzhi mentally shook his head.
At this moment, he could use Wan Lei’s technique and create another Yin Yang cyclone around the Thousand Years Fire Herb, forming a system of mutual absorption with Wan Lei.
However, Wan Lei wasn’t Qian Wu.
Qian Wu only had the power of the Rebirth State Peak, and his progress on the Near-Life Dao wasn’t great either. However, as the First Disciple of the Yin Yang Pavilion, Wan Lei’s level of power was hugely different from Qian Wu. Fang Zhengzhi didn’t even need to guess – he knew that Wan Lei had at least attained the power of the Sage State, and even among people in the Sage State he might not be considered too weak.
Fang Zhengzhi clearly could not afford to compete with Wan Lei on the same Yin Yang Dao now.
Even if, in theory…
Fang Zhengzhi was able to win by a fluke.
What then?
If he were to so much as move, Wan Lei would certainly react immediately. When that happens, if Wan Lei retracted his hands or sneaked an attack from behind…
Thinking about it this way, this obviously wouldn’t be a smart move.
At this moment, Wan Lei had let down his guard, and clearly feeling pleased with himself. He was being complacent, which meant that this was the perfect moment to attack quickly. To miss this opportunity would be a huge waste.
What to do?
If one man can’t defeat him, then…
Surely a group of people can!
This was a very simple idea. In his previous life, even elementary school students would know to get a couple of friends to come along if he couldn’t win a fight alone.
At this point, Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes lit up again.
Of course, he had his friends too, like Yan Xiu, who was lying on the ground, and Nangong Mu, who was battling fiercely against Yan Qing.
These two really knew how to fight.
They were unperturbed by anything happening around them, keeping to themselves, not even needing a judge. Just like that, they continued their fight to death.
Very focused.
But clearly, most people weren’t the slightest bit interested in their fight.
In fact, any fight would attract more attention than a fight between these two.
Fang Zhengzhi obviously could not expect Nangong Mu to come over to help him after he was done fighting, after all, the probability of that happening was too low. Most importantly, Nangong Mu was male, as he was.
How could two same genders generate Yin Yang?
This was simply nonsense.
Fang Zhengzhi did not like nonsense.
Thus, his attention naturally shifted to Chi Guyan.
The male Yang must be complemented by the female Yin.
This is the right way.
Besides, most importantly, once he and Chi Guyan formed a Yin Yang connection, even the searing heat that he and Chi Guyan were taking turns to transfer from each others’ bodies could be used to strengthen the connection.
That searing heat in their bodies could be divided into two extremities, Yin and Yang.
He would use the searing hit in their bodies, divide them into Yin and Yang and form a huge Yin Yang cycle between himself and Chi Guyan…
Thinking about it made him a little excited.
Of course, doing this would cause part of the medicinal power of the Thousand Years Fire Herb to enter Chi Guyan’s body, and to be absorbed by her.
This would inevitably make it more difficult for him to make Chi Guyan his b*tch.
But everything has advantages and disadvantages.
If he had to make a choice between Wan Lei and Chi Guyan, he knew who he would choose.
One cannot be too selfish.
Besides, in the first place the Thousand Years Fire Herb was initially obtained by Chi Guyan, and that chick’s actions really did touch him just now.
“What a good b*tch!” Fang Zhengzhi felt that it was about time to promote Chi Guyan, to, say, Leader of the B*tches or something.
Without further ado, Fang Zhengzhi decided to follow his heart and started to attempt to use his breath and the strength of the transfers to control that searing heat.
However, thinking and doing were two completely different things.
That wave of heat that surged right into Fang Zhengzhi was just too strong, to the extent that he simply could not use strength to suppress it, and could not control its direction.
Fortunately…
Chi Guyan had also formed a loop with him.
And this loop had to pass through Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan’s mouths.
That was the crux of it all.
Since the heat had to pass through Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan’s mouths, then, learning how to form a Yin Yang vortex between their mouths to direct the heat would be crucial.
Regarding this, Fang Zhengzhi had an idea.
It was simple.
All it required was a flexible use of tongue.
…
Fang Zhengzhi wasn’t too sure what Chi Guyan was thinking at this moment, but one thing he knew for sure was that, when he put his thoughts into action, Chi Guyan’s expression changed significantly.
Not just her expression…
Even Chi Guyan’s eyes had changed, and there seemed to be a raging fire in her eyes.
Sparks shone in her eyes like stars, as if expressing Chi Guyan’s feelings. One did not even need to guess to know that she was definitely scolding Fang Zhengzhi for being a shameless thief.
And it was true – Chi Guyan was doing just that.
She couldn’t understand – even at such a critical moment, Fang Zhengzhi showed no sign of being anything but his usual shameless self, and had taken advantage of the situation to do this to her.
Didn’t this shameless thief know that, once the pill that Wan Lei and Tian Xing were trying to form from the Thousand Years Fire Herb in his body takes shape, they would start attacking him?
A leopard never changes its spots.
Chi Guyan really was rather furious, but she held it down. She let Fang Zhengzhi do it without much resistance, only occasionally dodging him.
But at this moment…
She realised that something was wrong.
Initially, the heat she extracted from Fang Zhengzhi’s body was always uncontrollable, coming from multiple directions, but this time there was an apparent change.
Although it was still coming from many directions, but…
There seemed to be a faint sense of direction, a kind of loop forming. In fact, it also felt like the heat was splitting into two in this loop – into two extremes.
She wasn’t very certain.
But, when the heat change changed as such, the pain that came with absorbing it wasn’t as intense as before, and was significantly alleviated.
Just as Chi Guyan was feeling confused, Fang Zhengzhi began to absorb the heat again.
“So quickly?” Doubts further clouded Chi Guyan’s heart. All this time, in order to save Fang Zhengzhi some pain, she had always let the heat stay in her body for a longer time.
Fang Zhengzhi had also being doing the same.
It could be said that, through each loop, both of them had developed a sense of camaraderie – you’d endure it to your limit, and then I’d do the same, repeating the cycle.
Yet, Fang Zhengzhi’s weird actions had undoubtedly destroyed this camaraderie.
Doubt.
But Chi Guyan still chose to cooperate.
She pushed the heat out of her body.
Just as she sent the heat into Fang Zhengzhi’s mouth, she began to feel his tongue moving restlessly again.
“…” Chi Guyan really wanted to scream at him for being a shameless thief once again, but as before, she was unable to do so because her mouth could barely make a sound.
At this moment, the change happened again.
Fang Zhengzhi sent the heat back as quickly as he had sucked it away, and when he sent it back, his tongue started moving again.
Of course, this wasn’t exactly the most important thing at that moment.
What was most important was that, the heat that Chi Guyan absorbed into her body this time was obviously different, and she could feel the change.
The heat was split into two – two extremes!
Yin, Yang!
Chi Guyan, being as intelligent as she was, now understood what Fang Zhengzhi was doing, although she still had no idea what the point in doing that was.
However, she knew that Fang Zhengzhi was doing this on purpose.
If so…
Then he naturally had to have his reasons.
“Does this shameless thief want me to do the same action as him?” This idea didn’t linger for too long in Chi Guyan’s mind.
Although she was born into wealth and nobility, since she was young, she was exposed to sergeants, generals, battlefields, and blood.
This meant that, she had “military blood”.
She started to imitate Fang Zhengzhi’s actions…
…
Fang Zhengzhi was truly shocked this time.
His original plan was to do this with sheer force of will and shamelessness, betting on Chi Guyan being cooperative and not pushing him aside midway.
What he didn’t expect was that, not only did Chi Guyan not push him aside, but she even started working with him and taking the initiative.
Now this was rather unbearable for him.
As a man, how could he lose in this aspect?
Harder!
More strength!
Harder!!
More, more strength!
What Fang Zhengzhi didn’t know was that, when he was preoccupied with “comparing” himself with Chi Guyan, there had been a huge change to that loop of heat between him and Chi Guyan.
Now, it wasn’t just split into two.
It had become two absolute extremes.
To put it more straightforwardly, a distinct point of convergence had formed between Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan’s mouths. Fang Zhengzhi’s breath was Yang, and Chi Guyan’s breath was Yin.
Gone was the situation where the heat stayed in one of their bodies.
Both of them had heat flowing in their bodies, but once the heat reached Fang Zhengzhi’s mouth, it became Yang. When it reached Chi Guyan’s mouth, it turned Yin.
This was a loop that had formed between Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan – a Yin Yang loop.
Once this Yin Yang loop had been formed, the initial pain disappeared completely. In fact, their internal organs began to slowly recover, as if reborn.
At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi grabbed Chi Guyan by her waist, and gently wrote four words on her waist, with his fingers.
When he was done, Chi Guyan’s body quivered, a faint hint of surprise in her eyes.
Fang Zhengzhi had no way to explain it to Chi Guyan.
But he knew he could do it.
“Yin Yang reverse!” Fang Zhengzhi yelled in his heart, and then, the original loop suddenly stopped and went into reverse rapidly.
“Buzz!” In a split second, the entire space had collapsed.
Darkness.
Darkness with no light.
And, naturally, at the opposite end, there was brightness. Blinding, hot brightness just like the sun.
This was an enormous Yin Yang Illustration.
And it had been formed in seconds.
It had been so sudden that no one besides Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan could react in time, and certainly no one had anticipated it.
Yet, this huge Yin Yang Illustration had in fact appeared, and was swirling crazily above Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan.
“Yin Yang Illustration?!” Wan Lei’s feelings were hard to describe in words.
As the First Disciple of Yin Yang Hall, he found it hard to believe his eyes. Wasn’t the Yin Yang Illustration exclusive to the Yin Yang Hall?
Why would it appear on Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan?
This was his first reaction.
Of course, this thought didn’t linger for long in his mind, not because he found out why, but because he didn’t have the luxury of time to continue thinking.
Because, a huge, terrifying force rushed into his body at that moment, with savage strength. It had completely destroyed the medicinal powers that he had painstakingly extracted from the Thousand Years Fire Herb in seconds.
It also sucked away the source of the medicinal power that he had extracted in a huff. Like a typhoon, everywhere it passes, nothing can grow.
