Chu Zhiyuan’s face showed a look of amazent.
There is such a miraculous technique in the world, it’s truly eye-opening.
Once the Yin Yang Du E Secret Scripture is cast, one can see the Yin Yang Qi, which is also the Qi of life and death.
Yang energy is life energy, Yin energy is death energy.
One can also manipulate the Qi of life and death.
He couldn’t help but marvel at how such an incredible technique could exist in this world.
However, the essence of this technique is lifespan.
To manipulate the Qi of life and death, one must use their own life and death Qi.
Life and death Qi continuously transform, ceasing only on the day life ends.
Yang transforms into Yin, life energy into death energy, marking the process of life’s decline.
Innate Primordial Yang determines lifespan.
This tiny Yuan Yang first transforms into Yang energy.
Yang energy stimulates brain activity, then causes the heart to beat, thus initiating life.
The process of life is one that consus Yang energy and produces Yin energy.
Yang energy drives life, and once life has transpired, the consud Yang energy transforms into Yin energy, like gasoline running through an engine turns into exhaust.
Yin energy will cause the body to age.
In the early stages of life, Yin energy accumulates less, causing less harm to life, and this is the growth phase.
As Yin energy accumulates to a certain level, life transitions to aging.
The more Yin energy accumulates, the greater the harm to the body, leading to illness, starting from minor sickness to severe diseases.
Until Innate Primordial Yang is entirely exhausted, with no Yang energy to transform, lifespan is then over.
He realized upon practicing this art that it is Yuan Yang that truly determines lifespan.
Yin energy damages the body but is not lethal.
As long as Yuan Yang persists, lifespan continues, life does not cease.
Unless the heart and brain are directly destroyed, preventing Yuan Yang from transforming into Yang energy, resulting in death.
To manipulate soone else’s Yin Yang Qi, life and death Qi, one must utilize their own life and death Qi.
To bring soone back from death, one must first expel all Yin energy before injecting Yang energy.
If Yin energy and death energy are not thoroughly removed, Yang energy cannot be injected.
Like a river, if the water flows turbulently, if you don’t drain it dry, you cannot channel water from below back to the river’s source.
Chu Zhiyuan also understood why Cheng Miaozhen needed his help.
He was to help expel death energy, whereas Cheng Miaozhen was to inject life energy.
Expelling death energy requires using one’s own death energy, and injecting life energy requires life energy.
Death energy does not reduce lifespan, but life energy is lifespan.
This indeed involves using one’s own lifespan to supplent another’s.
The depth of Cheng Miaozhen’s feelings for Princess Shufei was perceivable.
He admitted he couldn’t do it; though he loved his parents, he wasn’t willing to use his own lifespan to supplent theirs.
Unless his lifespan was limitless and he could be undying.
The Yin Yang Du E Secret Scripture is so defiant of the heavens, it’s hard to say if practicing it is a blessing or a curse.
He even pondered deeply, if he could further reverse his own Yin Yang Qi, could he achieve eternal life?
The foundation of the Yin Yang Du E Secret Scripture is the Yin Yang Flower.
Through the blooming of the Yin Yang Flower, one can see Yin Yang Qi and manipulate others’ Yin Yang Qi through one’s own Qi.
But it cannot reverse one’s own Yin Yang Qi, as this is the rule of heaven and earth operation, the Yin Yang Du E Secret Scripture allows one to see but not alter it.
Can it be used to kill?
It’s not as convenient as Martial Arts.
Yuan Yang resides in the brain, so to sever Yuan Yang and Yang energy, Martial Arts are necessary.
Yin energy can only accelerate aging, but cannot directly cause death.
Using Martial Arts is simpler.
Ultimately, the secret technique’s utility is mainly for healing or saving lives.
As he thought about it, he gradually cald down.
No matter how incredible this technique is, it’s only for saving lives, not for Martial Arts.
Compared to the Martial Arts, each has its own value.

"Let’s go see Miaozhen!" Zhu Caifu said.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Has Your Highness returned?"
"Yes, hiding sowhere." Zhu Caifu said, "If you couldn’t learn it, we would bury Second Sister directly. You’re incredible, learning it; now you can save Second Sister!"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Though I’ve learned it, it may not necessarily save Princess Shufei."
"Miaozhen said it could, so it can," Zhu Caifu said.
She naturally trusted Cheng Miaozhen more.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded, "Then let’s go."
...
In an estate outside the city, he saw the haggard Cheng Miaozhen.
Under Zhu Caifu’s guidance, he arrived at the inner courtyard of the estate.
anwhile, he used Insight over the entire estate.
Thirty-six guards each stationed at crucial points of the estate.
Besides them, there were over a hundred attendants.
Among them, he had seen two beautiful maids, but the rest, including the thirty-six guards, he hadn’t seen before.
Clearly, this group differed from the Four Directions Pavilion of the Da Zhen Mission; they were true confidants.
He guessed they were loyal to the Princess Mansion.
Cheng Miaozhen ca out to greet him from the room.
She wore a simple light blue long gown, her hair hanging loose, sleek as satin, shining bright.
Her gaze was calm, yet Chu Zhiyuan felt it was a dead void.
This was a broken heart.
It seed Princess Shufei ant too much to her, and she couldn’t bear the outco.
Of course, a broken heart isn’t a dead plant; it can be revived.
As long as the right mont and a fitting stimulus are encountered, one can revive.
"Your Highness, my condolences," Chu Zhiyuan said with cupped fists.
Cheng Miaozhen returned the gesture, softly saying, "Thank you, Princely Heir."
Chu Zhiyuan didn’t elaborate, knowing whatever he said wouldn’t reach her, so he went straight to, "Where is Princess Shufei?"
Cheng Miaozhen turned and walked inside.
In the sleeping chamber, a beautiful woman lay quietly on the bed.
Bearing six or seven parts resemblance to Cheng Miaozhen, appearing around thirty.
She seed serene, though pale, without stiffness, her body soft and supple, like she’d just fallen asleep.
Chu Zhiyuan knew it must have been using so treasure or secret technique, preventing the body from cooling and retaining so warmth.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Let’s begin."
His eyes began to form a tiny black dot, then slowly expanded into a small flower bud, which started to bloom.
The Yin Yang Flower opened.
Zhu Caifu was a bit startled, not expecting Chu Zhiyuan to start so readily.
Cheng Miaozhen remained unperturbed, watching Chu Zhiyuan as the Yin Yang Flower began to bloom in her eyes as well.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "I’ll go first, you follow."
Cheng Miaozhen ca behind him, gently placing her left palm on his back.
Her hand was delicate but perfectly proportioned, its texture like mutton fat jade, with nails glossy as if oil painted on white jade.
Chu Zhiyuan gently pressed his right palm onto Princess Shufei’s forehead.
He slowly infused his bodily death Qi, causing the death Qi distributed throughout her body to begin exiting.
Compared to the scattered death Qi on Princess Shufei, his death Qi was more condensed and agile, quickly purging her body of death Qi.
At this mont, a surge of Yang energy was infused from his back, transmitted by Cheng Miaozhen.
He smoothly passed this Yang energy into Princess Shufei’s forehead.
Deep in the forehead was a cavity, resembling a Dantian Field, where the Innate Primordial Yang converted into Yang energy congregated.
As ti passed, Chu Zhiyuan frowned slightly, removing his right palm from Princess Shufei’s forehead.
Cheng Miaozhen cast a displeased look at him.
