Chapter 144 - 23: Gathering Yin and Focusing Spirit! Not Everyone Is Favored by Destiny

Hui Fen, who was sent flying, tumbled several times in the air before landing steadily on the ground.

Between the surroundings, the original Buddha’s light had already vanished.

In its place, there was a bluish hue of inner strength surrounding Hui Fen.

It had blocked Ye Liuyun’s strike against Hui Fen.

In such moments of life and death.

Even Hui Fen couldn’t hold back and hide any longer.

Under the influence of this inner strength, Hui Fen, who previously appeared kindly and benevolent, now exuded an aura of evil.

"Sure enough, it’s a Demon Skill."

Ye Liuyun’s gaze was knowing.

This was something that could be recognized at a glance; what Hui Fen was cultivating was certainly not any orthodox technique.

At this point, Shi Sheng and others had already dealt with all the monks around them.

Some were killed instantly, and as for those who weren’t dead, they had lost consciousness and lay on the ground.

Everyone’s eyes turned towards Hui Fen in unison, surrounding him.

Faced with such a situation.

Hui Fen did not seem panicked in the least.

Instead, he calmly patted the nonexistent dust off his sleeves.

"Do you know why I’m so unfamiliar with those Brahma Sect techniques? Because, fundamentally, I’ve only been cultivating them for two or three months."

"Perhaps you won’t believe it, but half a year ago, I was just an ordinary monk."

In other words.

Hui Fen’s current level of cultivation had only begun half a year ago.

Half a year’s cultivation to the Innate Realm.

Extremely rare in the world, of course, someone like Ye Liuyun doesn’t count.

"So, you just want to show off your natural talent at this moment?"

Hearing Hui Fen say this, Si Nan responded with a sarcastic tone.

Knowing that your cultivation speed is fast, what’s there to boast about?

"Talent?"

But such words didn’t create any sense of pride in Hui Fen; instead, his expression grew even darker.

"There shouldn’t be any distinction of talent in this world; all those with talent deserve to die."

His tone became much more vicious.

Whether it was to deliberately stall for time or a genuine lament, Hui Fen didn’t rush to act, but instead started narrating his story.

It wasn’t a particularly complicated tale.

Because Hui Fen had heard about the Brahma Sect since childhood, he joined the sect early on.

He believed that with his hard work, he could make a name for himself in the Brahma Sect and gain worldwide fame.

But what was the result?

After entering the Brahma Sect, Hui Fen realized that he was born with blocked meridians and couldn’t cultivate.

In this world where strength reigns supreme, being unable to cultivate was equivalent to casting Hui Fen into the dust.

Watching other disciples in the sect, who joined at the same time, make extraordinary achievements through breakthroughs in cultivation, while he remained an ordinary monk, drove Hui Fen mad with jealousy.

Over the decades.

Hui Fen gained seniority but nothing else.

And within the Brahma Sect, there was competition as well; wherever there are people, there’s conflict, and the Brahma Sect was no exception.

Many monks didn’t care about Hui Fen, who had no cultivation despite his considerable seniority, or even looked down on him, with an air of superiority.

Although Hui Fen never mentioned it outwardly.

He was already inwardly consumed by jealousy.

Why could others cultivate and not him—why?

Finally.

The turning point emerged.

Hui Fen found his own method of cultivation, and on that day, he proposed to the Brahma Sect that he be allowed to go out independently and establish a temple.

Perhaps because of his seniority, the Brahma Sect did not refuse.

Hence, half a year ago.

Hui Fen arrived at the back mountain of Nanmu City and established this Yunkong Temple.

"From here on, I’ll make those who belittled me understand that I’m no longer someone they can easily disdain."

By the end of his speech.

Hui Fen raised his arms and looked up at the sky.

His expression was utterly relaxed and at ease.

"But what does this have to do with capturing so many women? Surely your cultivation isn’t some vile technique of absorbing Yin to replenish Yang?"

Yet no one understood.

Although Hui Fen spoke at length, he still hadn’t explained why he had captured so many women.

"Absorbing Yin to replenish Yang? That filthy technique doesn’t deserve to be mentioned alongside the divine skill I cultivate."

It was clear.

Hui Fen truly despised such techniques of absorbing Yin to replenish Yang.

After listening for so long, Ye Liuyun seemed to understand something.

He remarked with a smile.

"Though not absorbing Yin to replenish Yang, it’s quite similar. What you seek is the Yin Qi from these women; otherwise, you wouldn’t be capturing women born in years, months, and hours filled with Yin!"

"???"

Ye Liuyun’s words made Hui Fen freeze, looking over in astonishment.

With an expression asking how he could possibly know.

"You captured other women just to mislead everyone, didn’t you?"

As for the women who were sold, it was likely Hui Fen’s way of camouflaging his true intentions.

He was truly despicable.

"Women born in years, months, and hours filled with Yin?"

Not just Hui Fen.

Even Shi Sheng and his companions looked at Ye Liuyun in surprise.

"Women like that have Yin Qi far exceeding ordinary people. Your Demon Skill should be able to absorb their Yin Qi, right?"

"It’s a Divine Skill!"

Hearing Ye Liuyun refer to his cultivation as a Demon Skill, Hui Fen blandly corrected him.

Then he looked at Ye Liuyun with surprise.

"I didn’t think you had such insight; you’re quite right!"
