[If it weren't for your unstoppable progress over the past three hundred years, advancing by leaps and bounds,]
[Zhu Diezhen wouldn't have been able to reach the late stage of the Integration Realm in such a short time.]
[Of course, it's not like you haven't gained anything.]
[In these three hundred years, you haven't encountered any bottlenecks in your cultivation path. It's also thanks to Zhu Diezhen's blessing.]
[The Union Pill, complementing each other, is not just an empty phrase.]
[But it also has a fatal flaw.]
[If one dies, the partner won't survive alone.]
[The two not only live and die together, but can even sense each other's sensations.]
Upon hearing Zhu Diezhen's recounting, Ye Yu's expression instantly became extremely vivid.
No wonder back in the Moonlock Pavilion, whenever he and Liu Xinxiu studied calligraphy together...
Zhu Diezhen always knew about it immediately.
So, that feeling, she could also experience it.
Tsk tsk tsk.
This is really too miraculous.
[When you heard that the person who took the Union Pill would live and die together, you couldn't help but panic a little.]
[Tomorrow, the Moonlock Pavilion will launch a major attack on the Ten Thousand Souls Hall.]
[Now that Zhu Diezhen is seriously injured, she will certainly not be able to compete with Shen Nantian.]
[It's highly likely that she will perish.]
[Doesn't that mean you will die too?]
[Naturally, you are unwilling to accept such an outcome.]
[So you want to ask for the antidote to the Union Pill.]
[Zhu Diezhen tells you that there is no antidote for this pill. To partners, the Union Pill is more like a binding.]
[Once taken, living and dying together, there's no turning back. How could there be an antidote?]
[You are very angry and smash your fist against the wall.]
[In your eyes, the Union Pill is even more terrifying than the Bone Erosion Pill.]
[At least the Bone Erosion Pill has a remedy. The Union Pill, however, is a lifelong bondage.]
[Zhu Diezhen looks at the ground with a sense of utter hopelessness.]
[She tells you that the Great Elder of the Ten Thousand Souls Hall, Shang Buyi, harbored rebellious intentions.]
[He intentionally killed the disciples of the Moonlock Pavilion who went out for a trial, provoking a battle between the Moonlock Pavilion and the Ten Thousand Souls Hall.]
[He wants to use outsiders to eliminate Zhu Diezhen, thus gaining control of the Ten Thousand Souls Hall.]
[Upon discovering this, Zhu Diezhen immediately intended to punish Shang Buyi severely.]
[But she was ambushed by the Third Elder.]
[At this point, Zhu Diezhen realized that over half of the Elders in the hall had sided with Shang Buyi.]
[Subsequently, the two sides engaged in a large-scale battle, which led to the situation just now, with corpses littered everywhere.]
[In this internal strife, the elite forces of the Ten Thousand Souls Hall were completely lost due to the rebels plotting in advance.]
[The remaining ones are all supporters of Shang Buyi.]
[Zhu Diezhen, the former high and mighty Hall Master of this demon sect, has become a lonely figure.]
[Even if you've rescued her now, she will likely face pursuit from Shang Buyi in the future.]
[Moreover, the Moonlock Pavilion is also watching closely from the sidelines. No matter how you look at it, it's a situation of certain death.]
[You look at Zhu Diezhen, who seems resigned to death.]
[You are furious.]
[In this current situation, even if Zhu Diezhen wants to die, you are not willing.]
[The good years have just begun, you haven't lived enough yet.]
[On this night, you scold Zhu Diezhen all night long.]
[Gradually, her gaze also began to change.]
[At dawn the next day, an elder from the Ten Thousand Souls Hall finds you.]
[He is one of Shang Buyi's people.]
[He immediately attacks you both.]
[With your and Zhu Diezhen's cooperation, you manage to kill this elder after a difficult struggle.]
[Afterward, instead of returning to the Moonlock Pavilion, you continue to flee from Shang Buyi's pursuit with Zhu Diezhen.]
[Knowing the effect of the Union Pill, you understand that Zhu Diezhen must regain her fighting spirit and become strong again.]
[Only then can you truly rest assured.]
[Otherwise, no matter what you do, you won't find peace. You fear that the next moment, if Zhu Diezhen dies, you will be buried with her.]
[So you promise to help Zhu Diezhen rebuild her sect.]
[And to kill Shang Buyi, this traitor.]
[Facing the grand plans you draw out for her, Zhu Diezhen isn't overly excited, but she doesn't refuse either.]
[After all, in the current situation, she has no other place to go.]
[As for rebuilding the sect and killing Shang Buyi...how easy are these two tasks to accomplish?]
[Over the next hundred years, you and Zhu Diezhen evade pursuit time and time again.]
[You become the best of partners.]
[But at the same time, you can never go back.]
[Once people find out about your association with Zhu Diezhen, and everyone believes you have fallen into the demonic path.]
[The Master of the Moonlock Pavilion, Shen Nantian, even offers a reward of five thousand top-grade spirit stones plus an artifact for your capture.]
[If someone brings you back alive, the spirit stones will double.]
[When you hear this news, your feelings are very complicated.]
[Initially, Shen Nantian valued you greatly.]
[He even intended to adopt you as a disciple and groom you to become the Great Elder of the Moonlock Pavilion.]
[But now, he's putting such a high price on your head.]
[Perhaps this is the depth of love accompanied by profound pain.]
[After understanding the reason for your distress, Zhu Diezhen comes to your side, wanting to scold you awake just like you did to her before.]
[But upon seeing the deep affection in your eyes, the words she had prepared just couldn't come out.]
[On this night, you once again studied the Kun character techniques of calligraphy.]
[This time, accompanying you in this study was Zhu Diezhen.]
Feeling the scenes emerging in his mind, Ye Yu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
During the simulation of the dream, all sensations were like experiencing them firsthand.
That kind of touch made one feel as if they were really there.
In the three years since his transmigration, he was finally taking off.
Ye Yu hadn't expected that his first time would happen in a dream.
As for the previous Liu Xinxiu?
She was just a playmate during leisure time.
How could she compare to the moistening allure of Zhu Diezhen?
[The deep exchange in learning calligraphy seemed to stimulate the Union Pill within both of you.]
[On this night, you both broke through a small realm.]
[At the same time, you realized the wonderful use of the Union Pill.]
[Five hundred years later...]
[You and Zhu Diezhen both reached the early Tribulation Crossing Realm.]
[You became the dreaded death-bringer in the cultivation world.]
[Not only did you kill all your enemies led by Shang Buyi, but you also established a sect.]
[Named the Soul Refining Hall.]
[This name was your creation.]
[During your time with Zhu Diezhen, she taught you the Soul Technique of the Ten Thousand Souls Hall.]
[After you comprehended and improved this technique, you renamed it the Soul Refining Technique.]
[The name of this sect derived from this technique.]
[Originally, you and Zhu Diezhen naively thought you could ascend together to the Heavenly Realm in the future, becoming a pair of immortal lovers envied by all.]
[But life is never smooth sailing.]
[Since you became a demonic leader, those righteous cultivators naturally came to eradicate you, claiming to uphold justice.]
