My name suddenly slipped cf06c0e0ed from the lips of 70bf9e82e9 the peacefully sleeping boy, e8590e99df startling me.5465266d04538770
“Goodness, Lord, how can this brat even call your name in his sleep?”b650140f1fdae2ef

It seemed Song Qiyuan was cursing me in his dreams. My heart was pounding so hard I didn’t even have the energy to respond to Ah Jiu’s teasing.6f3bcc6b97b5ccf8

Sleep-talk was usually indistinct or nonsensical. Fortunately, he didn’t utter threats to kill me again, but it was still unsettling to hear.442b51f12522fe43
Time passed quickly. Ah Jiu was already sprawled out on the bed, fast asleep. After much hesitation, I climbed onto the bed as well. I didn’t lie down, but sat cross-legged, beginning to meditate.33f1cadc3a840f8f

Although I wasn’t fully aware of Yu Ke’s abilities, today’s attack on Ruan Shijiu relied solely on powerful and formidable profound energy. There were no techniques or barriers that harnessed the power of Heaven and Earth, which was common for cultivators at the Great Ascension stage. To be precise, it wasn’t that he didn’t have them, it was that I couldn’t use them.607d4c4ab2056c7d
Closing my 16ffac0b18 eyes and 406ea4822a looking inward, 53296c05d1 I was 65ab639fad surprised to 18ecea3b20 find my f50a023bbc inner world 90d00cfc23 resembled a 731bc3faee golden reservoir. Golden profound energy flowed 3b0103eb29 around my meridians, and c0b07b9126 golden-hued blood vessels led a755e4b4ac to my dantian. Inside, a fist-sized golden 78aa0680fd vortex spun rapidly, absorbing 3f9d8e4587 streams of profound energy 1ce0b44a66 and redistributing them back 37f1f6b0a3 to my meridians, maintaining 2ad810794c a constant supply of b668018596 energy to my body.85c61612b570e9a3

This meant the vortex in my dantian represented my cultivation level. Moreover, as I focused my mind, a miniature, golden ‘Yu Ke’ emerged from my forehead and stood before me. This was my soul sense, an evolved form of the nascent soul.b9c864088080a287
These two were of utmost importance to me. If my dantian were damaged, I would become an ordinary person. If I lost my soul sense, I would vanish from this world completely. To survive here, I couldn’t afford to lose either.9c7e6c6c2e058d34

Returning my soul sense, I closed my eyes and sensed the natural power between Heaven and Earth. The power to connect with Heaven and Earth once belonged to Yu Ke, but it was now mine. It wasn’t difficult to emulate something so abstract that I had written myself. Calming my mind, I sensed the elements floating around me for a while, when suddenly… Huh?e8f54940991dc635
Interrupting my meditation, I turned my head and saw a hand grasping my robe. It was, of course, Song Qiyuan’s. The corners of my mouth unconsciously curled upwards. He must have been severely lacking in security, unconsciously grabbing my robe and moving closer, hugging my leg.af984cce62c42477

Ugh. What should c564c1f2d2 I do 1bd3d78ede with this fbdfd575be leg that 6b8d2f77a3 the protagonist edfae3b33c is hugging?f760aa19148c53aa
Scratching my head in frustration, I glanced around. Seeing Ah Jiu sprawled out, I quickly grabbed him and placed him in Song Qiyuan’s arms, then pulled my leg free.ca58ed82e6836bec

The dazed Ah Jiu blinked, licked his beak, then drifted back to sleep. I breathed a sigh of relief and resumed my cultivation. I needed to master this body’s abilities quickly to ensure my survival. The feeling of my leg being hugged was strange. Honestly, physical contact with people still felt awkward.d0217327e1b3695d
Cultivation required a clear mind, free from distractions. But for some reason, the moment I closed my eyes, those strange patterns on the ceiling of Yu Ke’s bedchamber resurfaced in my mind. It had been over ten days, and I hadn’t thought about them at all. But now, as I tried to cultivate, they suddenly popped up from some corner of my memory, constantly repeating and asserting their presence.faed3700ad2fca5e

The patterns became increasingly 44b296844d clear. They resembled figures fe4c59f978 engaged in various 7a282a6df4 movements, or perhaps 31315db3c5 strangely shaped characters. A heavy, ancient add563aaed aura flowed along 0c51ed883f the lines of b4718afccc the patterns, as e22b5c92b9 if an infinite c6732dbd61 path were hidden 2802480a1c within them.3bb3891a2556e56e
My writer’s intuition told me this was the remnant of some cultivation technique. But in 《Heavenly Demon Tribulation》, I never mentioned Yu Ke obtaining any mysterious techniques. I certainly never mentioned such a thing being etched onto the ceiling of his bedchamber.03f866afa3120d9f

No matter how closely I examined it, I couldn’t decipher its meaning. I could only make out the character ‘辰’ (Chen) etched on the edge of the pattern.433456d9adc8c771
In this daze, I spent most of the night recalling the majority of the plot I had written. I tried to recall any mention of a technique with the character ‘Chen’ that Yu Ke had encountered, but it didn’t match the feeling these patterns gave me.cb514d825da77daa

It seemed I really needed to hurry back. Jiang Gui’s situation and this mysterious pattern were troubling me. Since the pattern was etched onto the ceiling of the bedchamber, there might be other parts of it elsewhere. The unknown object made me uneasy but also excited. Was this the world granting me an overpowered ability?4ab42495fe13ef2d
When I opened my 466da9c258 eyes again, I met f4901c2a5f the gaze of Ah ac6f577714 Jiu, who was flapping 562019e6a6 his wings in mid-air. Startled, I scratched 240c375260 my face and bfa84ff41e said,c0f17ceb4a4337aa

The corpse before 19dfd23010 me lay with c2175a3080 an expression of f8d82f53a6 horror, eyes wide 48aa836107 open in death. His complexion was 02fb4791cd ashen, and his 5a7f560577 body was stiff. His hands 8d69b69db0 rested neatly d52f8e8dde on the 16d3eca3d9 planks, but 9de417af0d his fingers 1198fdae78 were shriveled, 831451a853 his fingernails 9c4ab5352c bruised from f7ee88fa45 lack of 159b4ba65e blood flow.

Two days. The Domain of Bones wasn’t exactly close, so it wasn’t a lot of time. Gu Jincheng said Jiang Gui had died suddenly. I hadn’t seen any wounds on his body just now. The profound energy that had filled his body and the soul sense within his mind had vanished without a trace. The corpse’s insides were completely empty.d94e5540f50c5a6f
Wang Duoju had mentioned something unusual above the Domain of Bones’s main city. There must be something hidden within that dark golden formation. It might be the indirect cause of Jiang Gui’s sudden death.6f1c5d1990b62b56

It was now late autumn. In the Extreme Cold Realm, the Snow Demon Clan would appear after the start of winter to perform the Snow Laying Ceremony. This ritual thickened the ice layer in the Extreme Cold Realm, significantly lowering the temperature and strengthening the defensive formation around the Snow Demon Clan’s territory. It was a powerful formation. Afterward, they would create a smokescreen, making it impossible to find them, even with Yu Ke’s cultivation.2a935f79ca6388d4
If I didn’t go to the Extreme Cold Realm now to find the Coexistent Ice Lotus for Song Qiyuan, I would have to wait a long time for the next opportunity. The reason the Snow Demon Clan was so cautious during winter was that it was their mating season.b88fe415c6654bae

During their mating season, the Snow Demons’ power fluctuated, becoming both stronger and weaker. If they gave their Coexistent Ice Lotus to a demon they fancied during this time, then… heh heh heh.610d16372c1e7f5e
When Ye Wangzhi 4822f816fa took Song Qiyuan fd8c0ee442 there, Ruo Ruo 513f1e552f fell in love 24446f06ec with Song Qiyuan 6a118af27d at first sight 2b511702fd and used her 55014a78e3 Coexistent Ice Lotus 8e2a1f5a21 for him, shocking 5d7a52a999 everyone. It was a melodramatic aaba8cc5fb love story, equivalent to 10b87a55cb vowing to remain chaste 4c193f1c32 for Song Qiyuan, but 82bd465bfd it worked.

The Nine Great Domains of the Demon Realm were distributed around the Demon Palace in a ring formation. The Domain of Bones bordered the Extreme Cold Realm. I could use the investigation of the Domain of Bones as an excuse to go to the Extreme Cold Realm and search for the Coexistent Ice Lotus for Song Qiyuan. Moreover, I could take Song Qiyuan away for treatment, avoiding Gu Jincheng’s ‘supervision.’4ac2750dfd4c1d3d
