Although her spirit still shines bright, it’s inevitably slightly dimmed by impurities, which affects her mood and fortune. This is not conducive to undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation. This humble servant will now remove the evil energy from both the young palace master and your elder brother.”

“Please, the two of you sit cross-legged with hearts as pure and clear as ice.”

“Many thanks to Official Shi for making this happen.”

Dong Xiaoyan hurriedly pulled Feng Yin to sit down cross-legged, her heart fluttering with excitement.

Having personally experienced the benefits of having evil energy removed before, she was well aware of the tremendous advantages it presented, which were ineffable. Seizing the opportunity once more, and even bringing Feng Yin along to share the benefits, she felt blissful, elated, and filled with an unprecedented contentment.

At this point, Feng Yin had also come to a full understanding.

This Official Shi had come on this trip with the intention of extending goodwill towards Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace.

Moreover, this method he used, which he had applied more than once, involved a secret technique to absorb the evil energy generated by killing. It did not come without reason or effect.

But for the person absorbing such evil energy, it was certainly not a good thing.

In other words, Official Shi had made significant sacrifices, and this time he had even involved himself, thus increasing the karmic debt he owed.

“I wonder to what extent this act affects our elder?”

Feng Yin asked, “If… if the impact is too great, just removing it from Yan Yan will suffice. In this respect, I don’t have such high aspirations.”

Feng Yin had great confidence in the Spiritual Transformation Technique he practiced for cultivation. Being able to remove evil energy and annihilate karma was certainly excellent, but if it meant owing too many favors in return, it was unnecessary.

Feng Yin well knew that debts of gratitude were the hardest to repay, and he, in particular, was especially unwilling to owe anyone such debts.

Official Shi furrowed his brow and looked at Feng Yin, smiling and saying, “Young Master Dong need not worry. I cultivate the Incomplete Heaven and Earth Technique, and it is already destined that I will have no children, no descendants, no family. Even though the Incomplete Heaven and Earth can never reach the highest realms of martial cultivation, it allows me to avoid heavenly tribulations to temper my body. So absorbing evil energy does not cause the kind of harm it would to a typical cultivator; although it inevitably depletes some of my vital energy, it is beneficial for honing and advancing my cultivation. With this humble servant’s worn body, at most a hundred years from now, I will burn my corpse to ashes and completely dissipate from this world.”

He gave a bitter smile and said, “Because if the body is left behind, I fear it might turn into a zombie and bring calamity to the world. So… since I have no children, no one will offer incense at my grave, and in the end, I will become one with the dust. The matter of the evil energy… it doesn’t bother me. Others might care, but for me, it’s not a concern.”

“…”

By now, Feng Yin had thoroughly understood.

So that’s how it is.

Although there are disadvantages to absorbing evil energy, for someone who cultivates the Incomplete Heaven and Earth Technique, it helps to advance their cultivation while damaging their vital energy.

Another concern about having too much evil energy is that it could harm descendants and diminish one’s moral virtues.

For Official Shi, this too was not an issue.

Being a eunuch, he was destined to have no offspring, so he didn’t have to worry about such concerns.

So, this method, which other advanced cultivators would never consider, was not problematic for Official Shi!

No wonder with so many great masters inside the imperial palace throughout the dynasties, as long as there were people like Official Shi, they could resolve karmic evil energy.

Naturally, their cultivation would progress far beyond others.

“Then I humbly accept the elder’s grace.”

Feng Yin let out a gentle sigh.

In his heart, however, he thought that if there were something he could do for Official Shi in the future, he would do his best, as a way of repayment.

Accepting favors freely was not his style.

Immediately after, Official Shi extended his hand in the air and began to operate, his power already in motion.

Feng Yin could genuinely feel strands of evil energy being pulled from Dong Xiaoyan’s body and head, captured by Official Shi into his palm, meticulously collected like streams flowing into the sea, rapidly vanishing from sight.

And as the evil energy continued to be absorbed, the gloomy aura inherent to Official Shi became increasingly dense.

As the extraction of the evil energy went on, Feng Yin could also sense that the spiritual power in Dong Xiaoyan’s cultivation seemed purer and more refined, exuding a subtle sense of sacredness and flawlessness.

“Eh?”

Official Shi’s gaze intensified on his face as he softly said, “This Young Master Dong has a balanced and peaceful aura, scarcely touched by the mundane world, yet the amount of evil energy in him is even more than that in the young palace master—shockingly more, bafflingly so.”
