“To cultivate this skill, one must first castrate oneself?”

On hearing Yang Zhen’s words, everyone in the audience was stunned. Clearly, no one understood his meaning.

Young Master Fen looked shocked and doubtful, staring at Yang Zhen with hesitance he asked, “What do you mean by ‘castrate oneself?”

Yang Zhen took a deep breath and slowly said, “The Tao… is ineffable!” Hummm!

A humming echoed between heaven and earth. The Taiji diagram behind Yang Zhen disappeared suddenly, startling everyone.

The Tao is ineffable!

None would have expected that Yang Zhen, still in the Void Cultivation Stage, would utter such profound words. They were all somewhat shocked and looked at Yang Zhen with astonishment.

From time immemorial, any cultivator who aimed to grasp the Tao had to do it through personal comprehension, even the inheritors of great legacies. They had never gained any knowledge of the Tao by word of mouth.

The inability to transmit it verbally is the most striking feature of the Tao!

Of the 3000 paths of the Tao, none could be fully expressed in words. Not only those who had grasped the Tao knew this, but also every person present had heard of it. However, they had never heard anyone articulate these profound concepts before.

Even though Yang Zhen’s words were simple and easy to understand, everyone felt a deep and distant sensation of the Tao within them!

As soon as Yang Zhen’s words fell, the whole area around the Heavenly Destiny Spring fell silent.

Young Master Fen looked at Yang Zhen with an uncertain expression in his eyes, flickering between bewilderment, pain, amazement, and bitterness. He shook his head and said, “Did you do that on purpose?”

Everyone was shocked at this question. Xiu’er was even more furious. She cursed, “Has Young Master Fen gone mad? Yang Zhen was kind enough to expound on the Tao, and he not only is ungrateful but even blames him absurdly!”

Hongluan Spiritual Girl shook her head and sighed, “I’m really disappointed with Young Master Fen’s actions.”

Everyone watched Yang Zhen tensely, fearing that he would dismiss them in anger, leaving with a non-committal remark and never mentioning the Tao again.

Though everyone understood that given Yang Zhen’s current cultivation level he was incapable of transmitting the Tao to anyone present, his words might trigger their own comprehension. This was especially true for Young Master Fen. Perhaps, a single word from Yang Zhen would allow him to perfect the final strike of his Earth Wheel Yin-Yang Sword, attaining complete harmonization of Yin and Yang.

But just at this moment, not only did Young Master Fen not comprehend Yang Zhen’s words, but he also blamed him. This made everyone so angry that they wished they could walk over and kick him.

“That idiot, he can’t tell good from bad!” Mo Tianya snorted coldly. He was also worried, looking at Yang Zhen with concern. Clearly, he wanted Yang Zhen to continue talking.

Then, unexpectedly, Yang Zhen didn’t turn his back in anger but sighed, “The Tao doesn’t have a fixed form, heaven and earth are unkind, everything is as insignificant as straws and dogs. It’s normal to have doubts and hesitations. When I was in prison, an elder with white hair said the same to me. That’s why I don’t blame you.”

The Tao doesn’t have a fixed form, heaven and earth are unkind, everything is as insignificant as straws and dogs… an elder with white hair!

Hearing Yang Zhen’s words, everyone saw a vision of a lofty and upstanding elder. Clearly, Yang Zhen’s amazing comprehension and talent were deeply connected to this white-haired elder behind him.

Is that true?” Young Master Fen asked, appearing skeptical, though more than half the doubt had disappeared from his eyes.

Yang Zhen sneered, suddenly dropping his profound attitude. He glared and said, “If it weren’t for the elder’s benevolence, intending to transmit the Dao to the world, why would this Sao Saint bother to tell you all this? Don’t be ungrateful. I just want to ask you one question, and I’ll only ask it once. Do you want to know how to cultivate Taiji?”

“Taiji!

On hearing these two words, everyone’s eyes lit up, especially Young Master Fen. His eyes sparkled, and he nodded his head urgently, “Yes, I want to learn. I plead Brother Yang to enlighten me!”

Yang Zhen burst into hearty laughter, slapping Young Master Fen’s shoulder and said: “As I said before, the Tao cannot be communicated verbally. The elder also asked me to understand by myself. What I could tell you, I already have. As to whether you can comprehend it, that’s up to your own fate.”

Having said that, Yang Zhen took a deep breath and said, “Taiji brings forth two principles, the Yin and Yang, which give rise to all things; everything in this world is divided into Yin and Yang. We have Yang, as in the sun, and Yin, as in the moon. We categorize righteousness as Yang, and evil as Yin. We see males as Yang and females as Yin. To reach a balance of Yin and Yang within oneself, both conditions of Yin and Yang must be fulfilled. As for how a man can have the Yin found within a woman, the only means is through self­castration…”

“But…”

“No buts. If you wish to reign supreme in both heaven and earth, can you really care so much about what’s gained or lost?”

Young Master Fen staggered back three steps, his complexion horrified as he looked at Yang Zhen and asked, “Reign supreme in both heaven and earth?” Yang Zhen shrugged and said, “That’s all I have to say. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I’ve relayed all the senior’s words, and that’s as far as my understanding goes.”

With that, Yang Zhen once again formed a Taiji symbol behind him, and an aura of ancient and mysterious origin spread out around him like the breath of a primordial beast.

Young Master Fen stood there, dazed, looking at Yang Zhen and mumbling something unintelligible before turning to leave, utterly confused.

Seeing that Young Master Fen was actually walking away, Yang Zhen had a sense of urgency.

Damn, if he just walks away like this, wouldn’t all the hustle of Sao Saint be in vain?

“Hold on!”

Young Master Fen jolted and turned around, asking, “Is there anything else Brother Yang?”

Yang Zhen sighed, saying, “To hold the Yin and Yang duality within oneself may offend the heaven and earth. It can indeed let you reign supreme in both heaven and earth, but it would also make you unacceptable to the world. You should prepare yourself… That is, you should care about karmic results and prepare for potential backlash. From now on, you should try to do more good deeds, and most importantly, don’t casually owe people any favors.”

Yang Zhen then began to talk rubbish in a very serious manner.

A gleam flashed in Young Master Fen’s eyes. He nodded, took a hard look at Yang Zhen, and then pulled out over a dozen Golden Fate Balls from his pocket, saying, “As a token of gratitude, take these Golden Fate Balls.”

After saying this, Young Master Fen simply turned and walked away, not giving Yang Zhen the chance to refuse.

Yang Zhen played with the dozen or so Golden Fate Balls. He turned around and jumped in fright.

A group of people was looking at him with strange expressions, and their collective gaze made him break out in goosebumps.

“Why are you all staring at Sao Saint like this?”

The cheap cat came over, looked at Yang Zhen with a weird expression, and laughed in a weird way.

Xiu’er also walked up to Yang Zhen. Her little face was blushing, but she was trying her best to hold back her laughter. She asked curiously, “You…you didn’t really…castrate yourself, did you?”

“Do you know what self-castration means?” Yang Zhen was surprised and taken aback.

He had spoken in a very subtle way, but these people seemed too clever. Not only had the little Lolita and cheap cat seen through him, but even the others, especially Hongluan Spiritual Girl, seemed to have understood as well.

“Truly a group of incredibly talented individuals!” Yang Zhen exclaimed, Since it s already like this, I, Sao Saint, won’t hide it any longer. Actually…”

At this point, Yang Zhen looked at the crowd, who were obviously eager to know the answer. He sighed and said,”…. actually, let’s go soak in the hot springs first.”

Damn, with that look in your eyes, you actually want to know if I, Sao Saint, castrated myself? If I had self-castrated, how could I still be so awesome?

I won’t tell you, curiosity can kill you!

With that said, Yang Zhen gave the people back their Golden Fate Balls. As he stripped off his clothes, he said, “Now that I have Golden Fate Balls, over a dozen of them at that, I should be able to hold on for a while. I won’t need your Golden Fate Balls for now.”

Xiu’er quickly covered her eyes and scolded Yang Zhen, “You…what are you trying to do, put your clothes back on right now!”
