Chapter 44: Yin Evil and Yang Extreme

  When Ding Yan first arrived in the mortal world, he had gone to Yi Shui once to look for an old friend.

  There, he used a push deduction technique.

  Divination technique, although it is only a small trick, but it has an unexpected magical power. In the divination picture, Ding Yan 'saw' a woman wearing gorgeous clothes, sitting on a huge stone, with her hands supporting her chin, staring blankly at the sky.

  Although they had never met, Ding Yan knew that the woman was actually the younger sister of the original owner of this body, Ding Ling! Who was also the person he was supposed to take care of.

  However, later on when he was conducting a large-scale soul search in the Ma gang, he also sensed some information about that woman. Through Yinyang Xiushi, he even clearly saw the scene of the woman's tragic death. It was precisely because of this that Ding Yan would destroy the Ma gang and take Ding Chen to live for over ten years.

  But... just now, Ding Yan saw through that wisp of immortal sense, clearly seeing the appearance of the woman transformed by that pure yin energy.

  The woman was exactly the one he had seen in his divination!

  "How is this possible?" Ding Yan couldn't bear to go back to the imperial palace to 'borrow' money again, and with a swift turn, he transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the location of his residence.

  The scene shown by divination may be in the past, it may be in the present, or it may be in the future.

  This point is even unknown to the practitioner himself.

  Ding Yan originally thought that the scene he saw was in the past, before the girl fell. However, now it seems that the scene inferred from the push-and-pull technique is likely to be the current scene!

  Because that woman never died from start to finish!

  As for soul searching, this method is not a difficult task. Modifying the memory of an ordinary person is too easy for a cultivator. At least, according to Ding Yan's knowledge, there are no less than ten ways.

  Inside the inn.

  The woman was barefoot, wearing a long black dress that trailed on the ground. She stepped on the floor without making any sound.

  The woman continued walking forward until she stopped in front of the door to Ding Yan's room, hesitated for a moment, and then raised her hand to gently knock on the door.

  "Who is it?" Ding Chen's voice came from inside the door.

  "Ling'er, it's mother..." The woman's voice was trembling slightly.

  The door was still closed. After a brief silence, Ding Chen's voice came out again.

  "My name is not Yang Ling, remember, I am called Ding Chen!"

  "Ding Chen, Ding Chen...... Is that a name given by someone else?" The woman bit her jade lips and asked.

  Inside the house was silent, with no sound coming out.

  After a while, the woman spoke again, "Ling'er, follow mother and leave. That person... In the past, in order to become an immortal, he could abandon me, and one day, he will also abandon you."

  "Shut up!"

  The door was suddenly pulled open.

  Ding Chen looked at the person in front of him with a face full of anger, it was clear that he had seen this person before. "What qualifications do you have to call my uncle? If it weren't for my uncle, I would have died long ago. For me, Ding Chen, my uncle is my only relative!"

  "Ling'er..."

  "My name is not Ling'er, remember, my name is Ding Chen!" After finishing, Ding Chen looked at the woman and said word by word "Also, I, Ding Chen, have no parents! In this world, I only have one relative, that is my uncle."

  After Ding Chen slammed the door shut.

  "Ling... Chen'er..." The woman leaned against the door, saying painfully.

  No parents!

  These four words contain too much bitterness. Since Ding Chen's childhood, he has never had parents. The word "parents" is too strange to him. When other children are being spoiled by their mothers, Ding Chen can only sit alone at the doorstep and gaze at the stars. While other families are reunited, he is learning calligraphy with Ding Yan.

  Ding Yan was indeed very strict and never spoiled Ding Chen.

  It's also because of this that Ding Chen's personality is much more mature than his peers, and the way he thinks about problems is also biased towards Ding Yan.

  At a time when he had already gotten used to this kind of life and forgotten about his parents, this woman appeared.

  She told herself she was her own mother.

  Resentment, anger, or perhaps joy, excitement?

  Ding Chen had already forgotten how he felt when he first met her. All he knew was that now, towards her, apart from disgust, there were no other feelings.

  All of this is because of that man.

  The man who claimed to be his father...

  "You're indeed Little Ling."

  A clear voice came from behind the woman.

  The girl heard the voice and her body trembled slightly. She turned around to find that Ding Yan had appeared behind her at some point.

  "You... how did you come back?" The woman looked at Ding Yan with a complex expression.

  "Immortal insight transforms into a thousand, for scattered immortals it's nothing but an ordinary trick." Ding Yan said.

  "Immortal?" The woman said with self-mockery.

  "So you've already become an immortal..."

  Ding Yan was silent, after inheriting the memories of his original body's owner, he couldn't express his feelings towards Ding Ling anymore.

  "You've suffered all these years..." Ding Yan said after a while.

  The gaze towards Ding Ling revealed a hint of gentleness.

  "Hmph! You're already a free spirit, what need is there for me this sister?" After saying that, the woman didn't look at Ding Yan again and walked away dejectedly.

  The woman's voice faded away again, and in a few steps, the gloomy atmosphere spread out once more, and her appearance also became blurry.

  Ding Yan saw this and a hint of cold light flashed in his eyes.

  He took a step forward and his right hand suddenly grabbed Ding Ling's wrist.

  "What are you doing?!" The woman exclaimed in shock and anger.

  Ding Yan didn't say a word, the yuan force in his body circulated, and a strand of chaotic xianyuan flowed through the meridians of his right hand into the other person's body.

  After the influx of spiritual energy, the mist around the woman's body dissipated instantly, and a faint flush appeared on her pale face, but it quickly receded. Then the woman's complexion turned extremely pale, and the pupils in her eyes even turned grayish white. Her whole body had no vitality at all!

  Like a ghost!

  "Dark Energy?!" A powerful force suddenly rebounded, causing Ding Yan to retreat two steps.

  His right hand suddenly felt a numbness in the tiger's mouth. At this time, Ding Yan's gaze towards the woman changed to extreme horror.

  Yang alone cannot give birth; Yin alone cannot grow!

  The interdependence of yin and yang has been a principle since ancient times. Any existence can be divided into yin and yang, including humans. In the human body, there is also the rotation of yin and yang, regardless of gender. Where there is yin, there will be yang, with the only difference being the proportion of yin and yang surfaces. However, nothing is absolute, and in nature, some places may exhibit only yang energy, while others may exhibit only yin energy. These phenomena are referred to by Taoist practitioners as "extreme yang caves" and "extreme yin caves".

  It is the same with people!

  Those who have only yin energy in their body since birth are called Yin Xie. Those who have only yang energy are called Yang Ji.

  Yin evil and Yang extreme, it's rare to encounter such people in a thousand years. Almost every one of them is a cultivation genius! However, the Heavenly Way balances, Yin evil and Yang extreme, although they possess talents that ordinary people don't have, their lifespan is ten times shorter than ordinary people. Basically, in history, few Yin evil and Yang extreme individuals lived beyond the age of ten.
