Looking at Feng Yunsheng, Yan Zhaoge could not see within the girl's gaze any impulsiveness of a moment of hot-headedness, but instead a calm yet resolute resolution.
Feng Yunsheng said word by word, "This is my own choice. I will take responsibility for it."
"… There is indeed a way." Yan Zhaoge said slowly after a moment of silence.
Yan Zhaoge was not a pretentious person, also not purposely making things difficult for Feng Yunsheng so that she could bring it up herself.
Although he still had a solution this time, he really didn't want to use it.
"You shouldn't be in a rush to make a decision," Yan Zhaoge slowly shook his head, "Have you heard of Cold Marrow Needles?"
Feng Yunsheng was a little at a loss. Yan Zhaoge said, "It's normal that you haven't heard of it. Still, you should have heard of lighting a soul lamp, right?"
Feng Yunsheng had indeed heard of this before, "In pre-Great Calamity times, there was a legendary torture that caused one to be unable to live or die, suffering eternal torment to the point where one wished they were dead."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, before looking deeply at Feng Yunsheng, "Before the Great Calamity, the Cold Marrow Needles and the Soul Lighting Lamp were amongst the Seven Great Tortures."
"This technique causes extreme coldness to spread from the bone marrow to the outside. However, the coldness will not numb the person. Instead, it will be as painful as being pierced by billions of needles."
"While being tortured, one's consciousness will always remain awake. It's impossible to faint even if one wants to."
Yan Zhaoge said calmly, "This is not something that one can grit their teeth and endure through purely with strong willpower. It is not just the fleshly body; even the soul of the one being tortured will be riddled with thousands of holes. While weak, they will not die, they will forever be tortured, every moment, every part of their body, inside and out."
"I'm talking about every part of your body. It's not like I'm stabbing you with thousands of needles. It's not like I'm stabbing you with every pore or acupoint. It's like there's no gap and it's all over your body.
Yan Zhaoge scanned Feng Yunsheng from head to toe, "Some parts of the human body are stronger in endurance, while others are exceptionally weak. For example, your eyeballs and other places."
"But the Cold Marrow Needles don't care about that. It takes care of every part of your body, so the more vulnerable the place, the more painful it is. "
Feng Yunsheng listened to Yan Zhaoge's narration quietly.
Yan Zhaoge said slowly, "Afterwards, because you possess the Extreme Yin Physique, you are unable to do so. Therefore, the pain you feel from the Cold Marrow Needles will be more intense than normal people. "
"This method can indeed strengthen your Extreme Yin Body. It can even accelerate your daily martial cultivation through the Extreme Yin Body. It can further increase your cultivation speed, but the prerequisite is that you can endure the pain. "
Having said that, Yan Zhaoge fell silent.
He had never intended to use this method from the very beginning. He would rather Feng Yunsheng improve a little slower and wait for another one or two years.
After learning that the Sacred Sun Clan was also searching for a yin-yang coexisting technique to help Meng Wan advance, Yan Zhaoge had actually still not considered this method, instead trying to think of other methods.
This method was something that even Yan Zhaoge himself did not have absolute confidence in persevering through.
"I'm willing to try." Just as Yan Zhaoge finished speaking, Feng Yunsheng answered calmly.
Yan Zhaoge looked at her. Feng Yunsheng smiled. "Currently, there's no other way, right?"
"Time waits for no man. If Senior Brother Yan has a better method, that would naturally be for the best. But before that, let me try this Cold Marrow Needle."
With Feng Yunsheng having wasted two years, Meng Wan was the most outstanding Maiden of Extreme Yin, and was already far ahead of the rest.
Now that Meng Wan was also using the yin-yang coexisting technique to strengthen herself further, if Feng Yunsheng and Broad Creed Mountain wanted to catch up. Their hopes instantly dimmed.
The difference in their starting points was too great, and they were both advancing. Feng Yunsheng's rate of improvement had to be much faster than Meng Wan's in order to catch up.
Otherwise, even if her speed was faster. However, there was a limit to how fast she could be. By the time she caught up, who knew how long it would be.
With the current situation rapidly changing, there was not that much time left for her and Broad Creed Mountain.
She pursed her lips, "Senior Brother Yan, look at how confident I am now. Actually, I'm also not confident that I can really endure it."
"As you say, it's one of the Seven Great Tortures ah. Its original intent is to torture people, to extort confessions, to make people wish they were dead. If it's so easy to endure, how can it still be considered a great torment? "
"However, I want to try."
Feng Yunsheng sucked in a deep breath, her gaze resolute as ever, "I want to win the Extreme Yin Bout. However difficult, however difficult, I must also endure it, persevere!"
Yan Zhaoge was silent for a long time before he nodded, "Alright."
Feng Yunsheng smiled, "Don't tell Master and the others first."
Yan Zhaoge sighed, "Alright."
Having come to a decision, the tense atmosphere finally relaxed somewhat.
When the two had been conversing earlier, a formless aura had seemed to have enveloped the surrounding area, causing others to unconsciously not dare to approach.
Now that the atmosphere had relaxed, Little Meaty instantly ran towards Feng Yunsheng happily.
However, just having run halfway, a massive black shadow suddenly flashed past before her eyes, causing a gust of wind which nearly knocked the little black dog over.
Pan-Pan, with a speed even greater than Little Meaty's, rushed before Feng Yunsheng, his big eyes blinking repeatedly.
As a qualified glutton, his stomach had also been captured by Feng Yunsheng in recent days.
Feng Yunsheng shook her head and laughed, stroking Pan-Pan's head before waving towards Little Meaty.
Little Meaty leapt up, leaping into Feng Yunsheng's embrace.
It first rubbed itself comfortably before baring its teeth towards Pan-Pan, finally turning its head away very proudly, no longer looking at Pan-Pan.
With dark circles around his eyes, Pan-Pan looked at Little Meaty's figure before lowering his head to look at himself.
He shook his big head, letting out a light cry as white fire and black water surged on his body once more, enveloping him.
The next moment, the water and fire dissipated. Pan-Pan who had originally been the size of an ordinary panda shrunk once more.
His external appearance was still that of a mature panda, not having turned back into a furless cub, just that his figure had shrunk greatly, becoming about the same size as Little Meaty.
Then, Pan-Pan let out a happy cry, his chubby body resembling a small furball as he leapt up from the ground, also leaping into Feng Yunsheng's embrace.
Little Meaty instantly stared, looking nervously at her owner, her eyes filled with helplessness.
Feng Yunsheng shook her head and sighed, hugging them with both arms.
Seeing this scene, Yan Zhaoge's gaze drifted a little.
A thought very suddenly arose within his mind.
If only he were a little stronger, a little more capable, a little more capable.
Let this strong, bright girl before him, even if she didn't do anything at all, just happily playing with Pan-Pan and Little Meaty, then also being able to wear that crown …
Yan Zhaoge shook his head slightly, stabilising his mind once more, his gaze no longer drifting.
He could not help but laugh, "Completely given by others, yet not putting in any effort herself, that way, I'm afraid that she herself would instead feel a little disappointed."
Looking at Feng Yunsheng, Yan Zhaoge shook his head lightly, "While there is a saying that the heavens reward the diligent, those who work hard might not necessarily be rewarded. I've really seen this sort of thing too many times. "
"But you, you will wear the Extreme Yin Crown."
