Chapter 72: The Secret Book Appears; Sun Yuan Goes Fishing

  (This section is important for later, so it's not just filling up the word count, of course, there's no need to fill up the word count anyway, since it doesn't cost money!)

  Sun Yuan naturally did not know these things, at this time in the unclear space, a long time had passed, under the nourishment of the demon power, Sun Yuan's arm had now recovered normally, and he had also long abandoned his cultivation of the demon power.

  The reason was none other than that one day, he was bored and playing with the seal in his pocket, and unexpectedly found a piece of kung fu inside. This piece of kung fu was called the Soul Seal Technique, and as long as it was cultivated successfully, it could attach consciousness to someone else's body. The principle of this soul seal technique was very simple, and Sun Yuan understood it at a glance. What made him a little regretful was that this soul seal technique was not a combat kung fu, and the spiritual power cultivated from it could only control others. Wanting to use it directly in battle was somewhat difficult.

  However, considering the phenomenon of having a technique in the seal, Sun Yuan began to study the steel fork day and night. If the seal can have a technique, then the steel fork may not be without it!

  As it turned out, after a long exploration, Sun Yuan actually found a hidden technique in the steel fork, which was not an auxiliary technique like Soul Seal Technique, but a real technique for cultivating the dead spirit's energy. Its name was also very simple, called Ghost Soldier Basic Heart Method!

  After obtaining this heart method, Sun Yuan started to cultivate with a try-out mentality. Who would have thought that the effect was surprisingly good? The dead spirit energy cultivated from this seemed not to be inferior in quality compared to demonic power, but the speed was many times faster than cultivating demonic power. Moreover, after possessing the dead spirit power, his cultivation of the Soul Seal Technique no longer felt as arduous as before, but instead had a sense of ease and smoothness.

  Cultivation knows no years, especially in an environment where no one disturbs him. Dazed and confused, Sun Yuan also doesn't know how many days have passed, but he knows that the dead spirit energy inside his body has reached a certain level, perhaps it's time to welcome the heavenly tribulation. Because he feels that the dead spirit energy inside his body has been compressed to an extreme point, what remains seems to be a qualitative change.

  But is there a heavenly tribulation in this place? Sun Yuan didn't know, and even now, he still couldn't figure out whether this place was real or illusory. However, on this day, Sun Yuan woke up from his cultivation, and deep down, he had a feeling that his heavenly tribulation was approaching.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, in this pitch-black small cave, not long after, a dark cloud floated above Sun Yuan's head, about the size of a palm. The dark cloud flashed with black-purple lightning, which was quite majestic if you didn't look at its size. However, because it was actually very small, it looked not only not terrifying but also somewhat cute!

  Under Sun Yuan's gaze, this dark cloud floated and swayed to his head, casually slashing down a few black lightning bolts, then retreated in a way that left one speechless, completely disappearing without a trace!

  Looking at Sun Yuan, except for the messy hair on his head, he didn't have any abnormalities, let alone injuries. "This...this is a joke!" Sun Yuan, who had just passed through the heavenly tribulation, did not feel any joy, because this heavenly tribulation was simply a joke, and the gap between it and what he had expected was too great.

  After a long time, Sun Yuan felt the death spirit energy in his body becoming even more concentrated and had no choice but to believe that it was indeed the heavenly tribulation and not someone playing a joke on him. After passing through the heavenly tribulation, Sun Yuan also initially possessed the foundation of actual strength to act in this world. However, considering the terror of the Tongue-Pulling Hell, he did not choose to go down personally but instead pulled out his long iron fork and began to guard at the entrance of the cave, waiting for rabbits to come to him.

  It was unclear when it started, but Sun Yuan discovered that living beings were constantly being thrown down from above his head, some far away and others very close. Now that his soul imprint cultivation had been successful, he could temporarily imprint his own soul onto a stranger's body, of course, the cultivation of this body couldn't surpass his own.

  In view of the terror of the Tongue-Pulling Hell, Sun Yuan could only choose to possess a puppet and go to the Tongue-Pulling Hell to investigate. At first, Sun Yuan was not very familiar with this action, either crushing the fallen souls or failing to catch them, letting them fall down. Fortunately, there is nothing lacking here except for the continuous flow of souls advancing towards the Tongue-Pulling Hell.

  After countless failures, Sun Yuan finally succeeded in catching a living spirit. The spirit appeared to be a young woman with a human appearance and a few good looks. At this moment, she had recovered her memory and was being pulled into the cave by Sun Yuan's iron fork with a terrified face.

  "You, what do you want to do? I am the princess of Sha country, whatever you want I can give it to you, just please don't hurt me!" The naked woman began to show off her assets, seemingly unaware until now where she was.

  "Tsk, tsk, what a foolish woman. Don't you know you're already dead? Don't you know that below is the Tongue-Ripping Hell?" Sun Yuan wordlessly shook his head and reached out to grab the woman's neck, pulling her over from outside.

  "Dead? Impossible, I'm not dead! Let me go quickly, or my father the king will not forgive you!" The woman began to bare her teeth and claws, kicking and thrashing about wildly.

  "I'll be waiting with bated breath! Women these days, not a shred of refinement, they deserve to die and go to the Tongue-Pulling Hell!" Sun Yuan impatiently flung the woman against the wall, her body accurately smashed into it. The massive impact came, and this seemingly princess-like girl's head tilted to one side as she fainted dead away.

  He quickly walked two steps, and Sun Yuan arrived at the cave that had become quite spacious after his repeated digging. He picked up the woman from the ground, placed her in front of him, sat down cross-legged, and began to apply the Soul Seal.

  It turns out that he is also unwilling to apply the soul seal to a woman, not for other reasons! Because the physical quality of women here is really too weak, but Sun Yuan seems to have no other choice. After so many days of effort, he only managed to get this body, which shows how low the success rate of such things is, it's simply infuriating.

  If he were to throw away this woman, Sun Yuan would find it hard to imagine how long it would take him to catch another soul. If he were to catch another woman next time, that would be a tragedy. Therefore, Sun Yuan had no choice but to operate on this princess, but looking at the princess, she seemed to have been well-trained before her death, and her body was still quite robust.

  With rapt attention, Sun Yuan's soul successfully entered the woman's sea of consciousness. In the light yellow sea of consciousness, a naked figure almost identical to the woman outside was hiding in the corner, trembling with fear and staring at the yellow monkey walking towards her with a ferocious smile. This was naturally Sun Yuan's soul.

  "What do you want?" Seeing Sun Yuan getting closer and closer, the woman started screaming frantically.

  "Shut up!" Sun Yuan shouted, "What do you want to do? You'll know soon enough! A woman like you is also superfluous in this world. I'll show great mercy and spare you the suffering of having your tongue ripped out in hell, send you on your way west instead. Perhaps those monks need you!"

  As he approached the woman, Sun Yuan suddenly disappeared and transformed into a yellow light cluster that pounced on her. In no time, the woman stopped struggling. Later, Sun Yuan's body reappeared from one side, and the woman's body also re-emerged, but this time there was a yellow mark on her brow, and she seemed to have lost all consciousness, leaving only a daze.

  "Whoosh!" The soul of Sun Yuan, standing beside her, let out a long sigh and immediately reached into his own body, gritting his teeth as he tore off a yellow energy mass, which was part of his own soul. He then flicked his hand and threw it onto the woman's forehead, whereupon a flash of yellow light appeared, and the energy mass disappeared into her body.

  At this time, Sun Yuan finally let out a breath of relief, and this time the soul seal was successful. At this moment, he obviously possessed two fields of vision, one of which was the woman's field of vision.
