Death energy was a type of power that would corrode one’s life. Generally speaking, death energy was something that would be created from a rotting corpse. A small amount of death energy would merely disperse into the air. On the other hand, a large concentration of death energy would spread death, taking more and more lives to form a cycle where more and more death energy was created.
Although Xiang Shaoyun had comprehended the Death Eyes, his death energy was something that had been generated from the profundity of death he had comprehended from the negative relationship between elements. He had never absorbed actual death energy before.
The moment he absorbed his first strand of death energy, he felt his body reacting to it. His life force weakened as his life withered. A regular person would probably start dying after absorbing a strand of death energy, but Xiang Shaoyun had a large amount of life force, so a strand of death energy wouldn’t do much to him.
With the Death Eyes active, he circulated the death energy into his eyes. This was an action that would shock many people. After all, the eyes were the weakest parts of one’s body, while the death energy was extremely destructive. If a regular person was to try this, they would probably be immediately blinded.
But not only was Xiang Shaoyun’s eyes not blinded, the death energy became fuel for his eyes, causing his gray eyes to become even scarier than before. Unfortunately, the energy did not stay long in his eyes. After all, one’s eyes weren’t meant for storing energy.
“Death Eyes can withstand death energy. In that case, I’ll have to see if primal inception energy can take in the death energy as well,” muttered Xiang Shaoyun as he absorbed another strand of death energy before pulling it into his astral cosmos sea.
Xiang Shaoyun was naturally somewhat affected by the death energy in his meridians, but the effects were still within his acceptable limit. Anyone else in this situation would not pull death energy into their stars even if they could withstand it. Doing so would cause one’s stars to slowly wither. However, Xiang Shaoyun’s astral cosmos sea was different.
The primal inception energy was the original energy, the origin of all energies, capable of taking in all energies and transforming into all energies. Xiang Shaoyun couldn’t take in all energies and transform them only because he had yet to fully master the primal inception energy. Thus, the death energy was immediately assimilated into the primal inception energy, becoming a part of it.
Xiang Shaoyun was overjoyed at that discovery. He started absorbing a large amount of death energy. However, the death energy caused his body to age rapidly. If this continued, the death energy would corrode his body until he was dead.
“Death energy can corrode one’s life, but I have control over the profundity of life and can generate an unending supply of life force to replenish my vitality and lifespan,” concluded Xiang Shaoyun as he started using the profundity of life to activate the hidden potential of his body, generating new life for his rapidly aging body.
After he was fully recovered, he absorbed even more death energy before stopping to generate more life force. In such a manner, he unknowingly sank into a state of comprehension toward the dao of yin and yang.

Death energy was a power of extreme yin, while life force was a power of extreme yang. Extreme yin would give birth to yang, while extreme yang would give birth to yin. Yin alone would not generate growth, while yang alone would not generate life. When yin and yang fused, extreme sorrow would turn to joy.
Using his body as the core, he started circulating death energy and life force. One served as yin, and the other served as yang. A Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram formed around him, forming a certain balance within his body. Death and life, life and death. The cycle went on indefinitely. Eventually, his body was no longer affected by death energy, and the energy accumulated within his astral cosmos sea started growing at a rapid pace.
Xiang Shaoyun decided to start absorbing the death energy at his maximum speed, causing a great convergence of death energy around him. A massive amount of death energy entered his astral cosmos sea. The death energy was pure enough to compare to high-tier energies in terms of quality.
His rapid absorption of death energy attracted the attention of the Zombie Saints deep in the Wumo Pass. Three Zombie Saints started heading in his direction. One was a human zombie, one was a yaksha zombie, while the third was a beast zombie. Of the three, the yaksha zombie was the strongest. Wielding a trident, it furiously stabbed at Xiang Shaoyun. The attack was comparable to the attack of a third-stage Saint.
As Xiang Shaoyun was in a state of comprehension, any interruption would logically force him to leave that state. But this time, he seemed to be in a unique state. He seemed to have awakened, yet he also seemed to still be deep in meditation. While seated cross-legged on the ground, his hands started moving. Yin and yang circled him, forming a tai chi whirlpool around him that diverted the trident and sent it back toward the yaksha zombie.
The trident contained not only the yaksha zombie’s original might but also the additional strength Xiang Shaoyun had injected into it. Instantly, the trident pierced through the yaksha zombie and nailed the zombie to a boulder. Not even the boulder could withstand the impact; it immediately burst apart.
The powerful counterattack did not dissuade the other two zombies from attacking. They might have gained a certain level of wisdom and the ability to speak, but they were still blood-thirsty fiends in essence. Thus, they would not feel fear just because their companion had been defeated.
Their attacks were slightly weaker than the yaksha zombie’s attack, but their attacks were still powerful enough to give ordinary Saints a hard time. With his eyes shut, Xiang Shaoyun’s arms started moving around in a disorderly manner. The powers of yin and yang were imposed upon each other, forming a massively powerful attack that blasted through the two zombies.
Next, Xiang Shaoyun pushed on and acted based on his instincts alone. Both his hands moved slowly, yet the attacks coming from his hands were incredibly fast. His attacks seemed to produce a certain atmosphere, reducing the two zombies into mincemeat before they could react.
At this time, the yaksha zombie pulled out the trident stabbed into its body and charged Xiang Shaoyun yet again. However, its incredibly tough body was grabbed by Xiang Shaoyun, twisted into a meatball, and then slapped into mincemeat. The moment the yaksha zombie was defeated, Xiang Shaoyun woke up from his state of comprehension.
“What a surprise. I have actually comprehended the Tai Chi Yin Yang Palm when absorbing death energy. This is quite a gain,” said Xiang Shaoyun in a satisfied manner.
The Tai Chi Yin Yang Palm was a battle technique he had comprehended from the dao of yin and yang. Every individual with the Yin Yang Physique would be able to comprehend a different technique from the dao of yin and yang. As for Xiang Shaoyun, he had comprehended a battle technique from the concepts of death and life, making the technique he comprehended even more extraordinary.
