Chapter 1511: I 'Yielded'

After Ye Yuan left, Yihan's figure materialized.

"Lord Tianxing, I didn't expect you to actually use the Blood Soul Curse!" Yihan said with slight surprise.

The Blood Soul Curse was extremely formidable; even a Demon Lord realm expert, once afflicted, would suffer a fate worse than death, with no room for resistance.

Using it against Ye Yuan was like using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken.

Moreover, preparing the materials for the Blood Soul Curse required a massive expenditure of manpower and resources to successfully refine.

A single cup of Blood Spirit Tea alone was priceless.

Even the Blood Yan Hall rarely used it.

The Blood Soul Curse was generally reserved for dealing with particularly troublesome individuals.

Tianxing said with a faint smile, "Using the Blood Soul Curse against a great figure who might become a Medicine Ancestor—it's too worth it!"

Yihan still worried, "But this kid is one who would rather break than bend. Will the Blood Soul Curse really work?"

Tianxing laughed heartily, "Will it work? Drop the 'will it'! Once, a half-step Demon King, after being hit by the Blood Soul Curse, crawled like a dog before the Hall Master, begging for mercy. This kid is just a mere Demon General—what do you think?"

Yihan's gaze sharpened, clearly shocked.

A half-step Demon King—what a formidable existence that was!

Yet before the Blood Soul Curse, he had no power to resist at all!

Yihan only knew the Blood Soul Curse was powerful, but not how powerful.

The example Tianxing gave gave him a direct understanding.

Tianxing continued, "The Blood Soul Curse doesn't kill, but the curse power of countless vengeful spirits—that soul-devouring agony—no one, no matter how strong their spirit, can endure it. Tonight, let the kid have a small taste. I think he'll soon come to me on his own, hahaha..."

At the height of his excitement, Tianxing couldn't help but burst into laughter.

The Blood Yan Hall could recruit a alchemy genius who had triggered the Heavenly Resonance of the Dao—how could Tianxing not be delighted?

"But, does he know it's us pulling the strings?" Yihan asked.

"Heh, this kid, though unruly, is extremely clever! Once he's hit by the Blood Soul Curse, he'll know it's related to us," Tianxing said.

...

That night, Ye Yuan continued to meditate before the Lesser Tongtian Mountain, deducing the third layer of the Chaos Unrivaled True Scripture.

Suddenly, the Soul Suppressing Pearl in his sea of consciousness stirred.

"Heh, here it comes! That old fool thinks he's clever, but little does he know he's working for me!"

With a cold laugh from Wuchen, the Soul Suppressing Pearl silently left Ye Yuan's sea of consciousness and hovered above his head.

The Soul Suppressing Pearl emitted eerie dark red light, looking very strange.

Inside the Soul Suppressing Pearl, Wuchen laughed heartily, "The soul curse of the Blood Soul Curse is a great tonic! With this soul curse, I should be able to recover to the third rank!"

Ye Yuan remained immersed in meditation, unaware of the outside world.

Wuchen had told him not to worry about anything, just focus on cultivation.

Amid the dark red light, the aura of the Soul Suppressing Pearl grew stronger.

Wuchen himself was also wreathed in dark red light, appearing somewhat eerie.

But his aura gradually grew more powerful.

In the secret chamber, sweat began to bead on Tianxing's forehead.

"This kid, he can endure too much—he still hasn't yielded!"

Activating the Blood Soul Curse required using one's own soul power as a guide to draw out the resentment from the Soul Refining Lamp.

The one being cursed naturally wouldn't submit easily; they would use their own soul power to block the curse force.

When the other party completely gave up resistance, Tianxing would find it much easier, not needing to expend so much soul power.

Tianxing never expected that a mere Demon General could hold out for so long.

How could he know that his opponent was not Ye Yuan at all, but an old monster who had lived who knows how long?

And this old monster was the bane of the Blood Soul Curse.

Right now, Wuchen was enjoying himself immensely.

And Ye Yuan was deeply immersed in creating a cultivation method, unable to extricate himself.

"Truly worthy of being a genius who could trigger the Heavenly Resonance of the Dao—this perseverance, this soul power, are simply not what a Demon General should possess," Tianxing silently praised.

Finally, Tianxing felt his soul power relax, clearly indicating the other party had given up resistance.

A hint of a smile flickered at the corner of Tianxing's mouth, and he said, "Heh, no matter how extraordinary your talent, under the Blood Soul Curse, you can only obediently submit! Enough, tonight I'll only torment you for an hour. If you don't come tomorrow, I'll continue tomorrow!"

An hour later, Tianxing withdrew his technique, satisfied.

In his imagination, after experiencing ecstasy and agony, Ye Yuan should now be lying on the ground, completely drained of strength.

The next night, Tianxing again exerted tremendous effort to 'subdue' Ye Yuan.

After five consecutive days, even Tianxing felt somewhat exhausted, but still, Ye Yuan did not come to yield.

Yihan grew anxious and said to Tianxing, "Lord Tianxing, could this kid be playing tricks and not actually be under the Blood Soul Curse?"

Tianxing's face darkened, and he said, "Nonsense! I saw with my own eyes him drink the Blood Spirit Tea. Could a mere Demon General play sleight of hand before me?"

Yihan thought about it and also found it unlikely.

But that a mere Demon General could hold out for five days struck them both as incredible.

"I don't mean that, I mean..."

"Say no more! This kid triggered the Heavenly Resonance of the Dao; he can't be judged by common sense. Tonight, I'll increase the intensity of the Blood Soul Curse and let him know what true agony means! I don't believe he still won't yield!" Tianxing said coldly.

Inside the Soul Suppressing Pearl space, Wuchen looked utterly delighted.

Over the past few nights, absorbing the soul curse had allowed him to recover to the third rank.

"Guiyun, I can't hog all the benefits. Tonight, it's your turn. This curse power is also a great tonic for you. One night should be enough for you to break through to three stars!" Wuchen laughed heartily.

Guiyun's strength had long reached the peak of two stars.

Now, with Wuchen's help, breaking through to three stars was a natural progression.

Guiyun was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Senior!"

Wuchen laughed, "Why mention that between us? Here it comes, get ready, and charge to three stars!"

...

Another whole night passed, and even with Tianxing's soul power, he was somewhat drained.

But precisely because of this, he had even more confidence in Ye Yuan's prospects.

A genius with hope of reaching the heights of a Medicine Ancestor was naturally extraordinary!

The next morning, Ye Yuan withdrew from the Realm Suppressing Stele space.

"Master!" Guiyun bowed to Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, "You broke through?"

Guiyun also smiled, "Thanks to Senior Wuchen, last night, with the help of the curse power, I successfully broke through to three stars!"

Ye Yuan laughed heartily upon hearing this, "That old man really gave us a great gift! Hmm, it's time to go 'yield,' or that old fellow will probably go crazy!"
