Chapter 542: Imprisonment
The second reason was that even if one were lucky enough to find both of these rare objects, who would dare to absorb them into their body?
Whether it was the Earth Malevolent Qi or the Celestial Gale Qi, both were wildly violent and utterly untamable. To a cultivator, they were as dangerous as venomous serpents. It was something to be avoided at all costs.
Had it not been for the Heavenly Yin Corpse Art’s unique secret techniques and barriers, which allowed him to subdue the Earth Malevolent Qi, Qin Sang's dantian would’ve been obliterated the moment he drew it into his body.
Even the Demonic Qingyang Sect, which treated the Divine Qingyang Gale as its foundation, only used it to temper the fire seed of the Demonic Qingyang Fire within the body. They didn’t dare let the Divine Qingyang Gale come into direct contact with flesh.
Letting both forces enter the Qihai simultaneously, allowing them to collide and temper the spiritual power in the process, was utterly insane.
If the two were to erupt inside the body, the cultivator would be instantly obliterated, without even a corpse left behind.
Moreover, during the fusion of the Celestial Gale and Earth Malevolent Qi, Qin Sang hadn’t noticed any immediate changes in his spiritual power. This suggested that, unlike the Snow Spirit Lotus or Iris Flower, condensing and refining these two forces didn’t produce instant effects.
It likely required prolonged tempering, grinding the spiritual power down to its limits before the transformation would finally manifest.
Even if someone were mad enough to attempt it, they would almost certainly never last until the end.
Looking back on the entire corpse refinement process, Qin Sang had taken every step as if walking a tightrope over a cliff, treading cautiously with each breath.
His success had been no accident.
First, he used five-elemental yin objects to lay the foundation and strengthen his Qihai. Then, through the Heavenly Corpse Talisman and Heavenly Yin Corpse Art, he pacified the Earth Malevolent Qi and refined a foreign Golden Core into his body. Only then did he dare to attempt the fusion of Celestial Gale and Earth Malevolent Qi.
