Ye Haochuan is thrown into the Seven Charnel Nether Pool for a month as punishment for assaulting an effeminate young man. Despite the pool's extreme corrosive effects, Ye Haochuan's unique Dragon Origin Essence Qi allows him to regenerate his flesh as it dissolves. A registration elder, believing Ye Haochuan to be dead, is astonished to find him alive and actively regenerating.

Ye Haochuan never expected that his flesh and skin would undergo significant changes amid repeated damage and repair.

Originally, he thought his Flower Energy wasn’t sufficient to sustain such a continuous high consumption.

To his surprise, just as his Flower Energy was about to run out, he suddenly discovered that Ming Quan’s corrosiveness began to reduce significantly.

It was then that he realized the strength of his flesh and skin was rapidly increasing.

Now, even without employing any defensive measures, ordinary weapons couldn’t leave a scratch on him.

This transformation only took two days; if he were to stay here for a month, how strong would his flesh become?

Even if it doesn’t reach the level of the Undying Body, it would surely be Vajra Indestructible, right?

"Who would have thought you’d turn misfortune into fortune!" The shabby elder listened to Ye Haochuan’s "fortunate encounter" with a gratified expression.

"To the point, you said you are a Hua Clan Cultivator, is that true?" Ye Haochuan suddenly became serious and asked solemnly.

Actually, this matter is beyond doubt. With Hua Clan being relentlessly hunted now, who would pretend to be a Hua Clan cultivator for no reason?

It’s not that he’s stupid, but he simply couldn’t believe a Hua Clan cultivator would dare to so openly infiltrate the South Sect; it was too incredible.

"You’re also here for the Diagram of the Two Instruments and Four Images, right?" The shabby elder didn’t answer but countered with a question.

"You too?" Ye Haochuan was even more shocked.

The shabby elder nodded gently, then smiled bitterly and said, "To my shame, I’ve infiltrated South Sect for over a hundred years, yet I’ve never succeeded in stealing the Diagram of the Two Instruments and Four Images."

"No way, it’s that difficult?"

Ye Haochuan was completely taken aback.

Damn, Shentu Fu wasn’t deliberately trying to trick me, was he?

This old man is a Void God Expert and has clearly mixed well in the Temple. It’s taken him over a hundred years without any achievement; how long would it take me?

Two hundred years, or three hundred years?

The thought of possibly having to assume an undercover identity and lurk in the South Sect for hundreds of years made Ye Haochuan’s scalp tingle.

"You just entered the South Sect, so you might not understand the situation yet!"

The shabby elder organized his thoughts and explained, "South Sect is divided into five peaks; the surrounding four peaks are named East, West, South, and North. The Central Peak is where the Sect Leader and numerous Elders and Hall Masters reside. It is also the core of South Sect. The Diagram of the Two Instruments and Four Images is located in the Treasure Vault of the Central Peak."

"Since you know where it is, can’t you just find a way to get in and steal it?" Ye Haochuan asked.

"How could it be that simple?"

The shabby elder shook his head and said, "The Treasure Vault of the Central Peak has a peak third-grade array, which only those who have received a token can enter. If you force your way in, it’s certainly a dead end."

"How can I obtain this token?" Ye Haochuan pursued the question.

"There are two ways: one is to perform outstandingly in a special mission to earn the qualification to enter the Treasure Vault of the Central Peak and select a Magical Treasure. The other way is to accumulate one million Contribution Points, which also grants access to the Treasure Vault to select a Magical Treasure."

The shabby elder explained, "Special missions are rare and difficult to encounter, and South Sect is filled with talented individuals, so standing out is not easy. The prudent way is to exchange one million Contribution Points for access."

"But unfortunately, it’s not easy to gain Contribution Points; acquiring one million will be time-consuming and labor-intensive!"

"You’ve been lurking in South Sect for over a hundred years, haven’t you gathered one million Contribution Points yet?" Ye Haochuan was amazed.

"I have gathered them, and not just once. However, the Treasure Vault has so many treasures, and there’s a time limit when entering. I’ve entered twice but haven’t had the chance to find it," the shabby elder said gloomily.

"It’s really troublesome, huh!"

Ye Haochuan puckered his lips and then smiled bitterly, "But since I’m already here, I can’t give up easily. After all, this is a major event concerning the fate of the Hua Clan!"

The shabby elder wore a look of satisfaction and said, "I no longer have the opportunity to complete the mission, but you, I think, have great hope. Young man, keep it up!"

Damn, is he so decisively throwing the burden on me?

Ye Haochuan was extremely upset, pondering for a while before asking, "What is your name, senior, and what position do you hold in the South Sect now? Since we are in this together, we must help each other in the future!"

"Certainly!"

The shabby elder chuckled: "I am Zhao Mingyang, working as a Deacon in the North Peak Executive Hall."

"Isn’t that the same rank as Chen Man? Why didn’t you help me when Chen Man was harming me?" Ye Haochuan asked in confusion.

Zhao Mingyang smiled bitterly, "Though we are both Deacons, he is a Deacon of the Central Peak, with a far higher status than the other four peaks."

Ye Haochuan understood, realizing the layers of complexity within South Sect.

After exchanging a few words with Ye Haochuan, Zhao Mingyang left, citing it was not wise to linger for long.

After a few steps, he turned back to solemnly remind Ye Haochuan: "In the future, it’s best not to easily use the Taichi Domain. You might not know, but the Taichi Pattern is the symbol of the Hua Clan. Although most people in South Sect have forgotten it over the thousands of years, there’s still a chance someone might recognize it."

He was able to confirm Ye Haochuan’s identity through the Taichi Domain and the Nine-Tailed Sword Qi.

The Nine-Tailed Sword Qi is easier to dismiss; there are some Cultivation Techniques in the Immortal Realm that involve summoning the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox to fight. However, the Taichi Domain is like a needle in a pouch, standing out to the utmost.

"What, there’s such a thing?" Ye Haochuan broke out in a cold sweat.

Turns out he has been inadvertently exposing his Hua Clan identity all along.

Luckily, Chen Man and others didn’t recognize it, or he would be finished!

Shentu Fu didn’t even give me a hint?

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but grumble.

In fact, he completely misunderstood Shentu Fu; Shentu Fu didn’t even know he had the Taichi Domain, so how could he remind him?

"Without the Taichi Domain, my strength will be greatly reduced!" Ye Haochuan said depressingly.

Zhao Mingyang frowned in thought before saying, "There is a way!"

"What way?"

"You are now likely at the level where you can stimulate and utilize the domain, but not yet adept at using it at will. The Heritage Domain is indeed formidable, but to fully utilize it, the user needs to refine it and integrate their comprehension of formations into it."

Zhao Mingyang explained in detail, "Once you master the domain, you can slightly alter its patterns, and others naturally won’t notice."

The brighter Ye Haochuan’s eyes grew as he listened; he had possessed the Taichi Domain for some time but had never had anyone point him in a direction, naturally unaware that the domain requires refinement.

Thank goodness Zhao Mingyang reminded him, or else Ye Haochuan wouldn’t know how much longer it would take to find out.

Zhao Mingyang left, but Ye Haochuan’s heart remained uneasy.

Zhao Mingyang’s appearance brought him a wealth of information, needing thoughtful consideration.

A month quickly passed by.

Ye Haochuan slowly opened his eyes and said with longing, "Ming Quan isn’t living up to its name; in just a month, it no longer has any effect on tempering my flesh."

Others fear Ming Quan as they would a tiger, but Ye Haochuan alone seems to relish it.
